The Yazoo Commercial says Never
Ter than at present. There is not house
in the county in which there is not some
one sick While only in very few instances
there is any fatality attendant upon it, the
pain that accompanies the fever is generally
severe. The swamp is suffering to an un-
usual extent, and the hills, generally
believed to be the favored retreat Of health,
are copying the example set by the swamp.
We regret that it is so, but we must say that
the amount of sickness in the country is
unusual

do some good. Who Will try it?
