DR.. Harri. announces his discovery, on board
the hospital ship, ofa disease (which he had
never seen before, and he venture TO say no
Eve physicians in New York had ever SEEN"
Some OF the patients, be adds, were blue, some
black. The secreions from the kidneys were
normal the skin was warm, not cold pulse
slow, not feverish. There was general conges-
ton the blood was stagnated in the extreme
vessels, and there was re.ching, with other
symptoms of cholera. The disease no regards
60 in limited measure contagious Evidence
Of cerebral congestion was not found, but he
thinks he detected . poison on the brain, which
kills its victims within four hours. He is
inclined to believe that this Is the same disease
as that which, under the name Of the "blue
disease" or the "black typhus," has been puz-
cling the doctors In Ireland during the past
Eve months. He would not like, however, to
say this too publicly.
Now, we think that too public an announce
ment cannot be given Of an infectious disease
which may imperil the health Of our great me-
tropolis. AT the same time We think that great
caution should be exercised by an oficial In
the important position held BY DR.. Harris, in
warning the public 10 prepare for 20 terrible
visitor - such disease might prove. Very
thorough investigation Of the facts in the case
should be made, and quite definite results
should be attained, before exposing the COM
munity to alarms which are sometimes scarcely
less fatal than disease ITSELF For our own
part, We are constitutionally proof against the
agitating effects Of so-called epidsmics and
the fine September weather which We are now
enjoying, together with the early fros.s which
we have reason to expect, and the happy moral
effects Of the multitudinous amusemcnts Of the

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.

IN the House, the vote to concur in
Sherman's substitute was defeated to
90 A Committee Of Conference has been
appointed.
Sherman's bill came ,up. A motion
was made to lay the whole matter on the
table. The vote on tho motion to concur
eas 10 to 9s. The motion CIR Com
mittee Of Conference was aCEed to with
ont division. Stevens, Shelanberger and
Blaine are the committee.
In the Senate, the action OF the House
on Sherman's substitute was reportsd.-
Williams moved that the Senate insist on
its amendment. Conness ohjected-as he
thought it too important to ehtrust to
committees of conference. lie WAS in IA
vor OF laying on the table, to take ~ the
Louisiana bill and Apply i. to all the
Southern States.
The Lancaster ledger. [volume] (Lancaster, S.C.) 1852-1905, 1867-02-27
The Sherman Amendment.

The last phase OF reconstruction in
Congress is the Sherman Amendment,
which We publish elsewhere, adopted by
the Senate as a substitute for Stevens
corcurred in the action Of the Senate,
with amendments, to which the Senate
will in all probability agree. This meas.
ure at'rocious rs it is, as the Inielligenter
states, consigns, Tor the present, at least,
"to utter darkness the hideous House bill
to establish negro supremacy over whites
in Louisiana" a bill which would have at
once initiated St. Domingo horrors, light.
ing mp the lurid flames Of wholesale in. .
surrec,on and butchety in ten Southern
States.
The result arrived at 10 the Senate is
peculiarly significant, as it is hailed bv
even snch furious de.truc,ionists as For.
ney, rs the satisfactory result Of "a long
and careful consultation among the Re
publican Senators. and reflects the homes
OF the loyal masses, which, having passed
through the double ANALYSIS Of the two
Houses, will constitute the supreme basis
OF harmonious action"
Viewed in this light and as a measure
which will, in all probability, meet the
concurrence Of the House Of Representa-.
| tives, the Sherman amendment becomes
a measure Of the most pregnant impor.
tance to the Southern people. While the
preamble Of the bill declares that no local
governments exist in the Southern States.
yet it recognizes State authority bv pro
hibiting its interference with that OF the
military.
Neither does it seem to design to in
ter!sre with the judiciary Of the South
except where they shall interfere with the
authority Of the military authority in
criminal cases. The manifest and lead,
ing design Of the bill is to exclude the
Southern States from all participation in
the next Presidential election, and subor.
dinates all else to that consideration.
