THE YELLOW FEVER REPORT. The
sudden change in the weather has pro-
duced the anticipated effect upon the
daily mortuary report For the twenty
four hours ending at FIVE o'clock yester-
day afternoon, nine interments from yell
low fever were reported. Sudden atmos-
pheric changes invariably increase the
mortality lists during the prevalence OF
yellow fever, unless great care is taken
to maintain q regular temperature in
sick rooms. Unfortunately, too many
persons are needless Of this precaution,
and death is almost invariably the result
of the negligence. We learn that the
fever is rapidly abating, only few new
cases being reported each day. The
fright is over, the doctors are treating
cases according to symptoms instead of
theories, and a total disappearance of
the malady is anticipated at an early

New MEMPHIS THEATER--A very iull
house responded last night to the call for
a benefit of the sick and destitute, and
the performance passed off without any
thing occurring to mar its pleasure.
Lady Don in the opening and Miss Mel
vile in the closing piece played with
their usual spirit, and were well sup
ported by the company. The singing
was the gem of the evening, each
furnishing a number of favorite ballads.
These ladies and Mr. Thompson are
certainly deserving of the highest praise
for their efforts in behalf of humanity,
aud we feel assured that they will not
soon be forgotten. This evening Miss
Melville will appear as Army" in
Little Barefoot, a piece finely adapted
to her powers. 1t contains FIVE acts,
through which will be interspersed a
number of Miss Melville's best songs.
This is very attractive bill, which
should draw large audience.

Damaging Smashup Of a
Freight Train Near
Grand Junction.

Wnlle tne lrelRhJ Tram On tue NA'osis-
sippi Central railroad was going south
ward Tuesday morning from Grand
Junction, the track suddenly spread.
The result was the smashing and almost
complete demolition of one car, and the
damaging of six others. Fortunately,
no person aboard was injured On the
same morning an accident occurred to
the northward bound passenger train on
the same road, eight miles from Holly
Springs. The train was proceeding
over a lengthy stretch Of trestle-work, at
full speed, when suddenly the forward
car ran off the rails and commenced
jolting over the ties. The train was at
least fifty feet from the ground, and at a
distance of fifty yards from the end of
the trestle.work The engineer, Mr..
Savage, promptly reversed the engine,
hoping to stop the train before it could
be precipitated below, which result
seemed inevitable, but the Impetus was
too great, and marvellous as it may seem,
the cars continued en- route at great speed,
every moment lessening the distance
between the trestle work and the firm
track beyond, and passing to a place of
safety without single car being de-
tached, or a single car injured. A
gentleman aboard the train informs us
that no words can depict the horror of
the passengers during the few moments
Of peril. All knew the trestle work was
great distance from the ground, and
every moment anticipated being hurled
below. When the train finally stopped,
the feelings of the lately imperilled pas
sengers may be moro easily imagined
than described. During the perilous
passage of the train the conductor, Mr..
Long, deeming its escape from destruc-
ton impossible, jumped from the plat
form of car to the ground, distance
of thirty five feet at that point The
injuries sustained were of a trivial
character. This was one of the most
remarkable railroad accidents on record,
and the escape of the passengers from
either death or horrible mangling seems
scarcely less than miracle.
