EDIToRs LEDGER: | have been on the
wing constantly Of late At Holly
Springs one Of our men and brothers I"
has been playing the role Of Cain. He
shot a darby for breaking into bis
masters house. His name ere this is
doubtless added to the mortuary reports.
Another showed that he, like old Achilles,
was vulnerable in the heel The police
man took fancy for his com pany, and
desired him TO stay. He did not have
time; so "de lice man" shot him, as
very persuasive argument, and then,
like the old sexton, "he gathered him
in"
Here we are exercised with the spirit
Of county seat General Smith sis

new one; locate the courthouse here,
etc, etc,--a paradise for town lots and
SIGH.
Yesterday three of Brownlow's con.
stiiuents passed through this place on
their way from Somervile to Nashville.
They were elected for the respective
terms of ten, three and two years; the
two first for housebreaking; the last, a
saddle colored chap, who acted as
spokesman of the party, said he got his
"for pickin' up de watch widout do
licens.' To judge him by his "pbysiog,
he got none too much
The weather is cool and bracing. Cot
ton moves slow, on account of the price.
The general health OF the place is good.
The Howard Association sent up nurse
to attend gentleman from your city,
who was sick with the bilious fever. No
physician was called in; the patient is
convalescing rapidly; could sit up yes
terday, and read without fatigue, as the
nurse informed me.
Yesterday the neighboring village of
Bolivar was visited by severe calamity
in the shape conhagration. The resi-.
dence OF Dr. Black was destroyed, with
some two or three thousand dollars in
greenbacks.
Now, Mr.. Editor, step forward and let
me ask why you let such sanguiuary
reports get out about the health of Mem.
phs. have not heard country report
where the mortality was less than from
two to five hundred per diem, and if |
ventured to question such reports my
veracity would be called in question.
Many brave man that faced the
dangers of the battlefield you cannot in
duce to visit Memphis at present
writing. Dor.

opened at Holly Springs, under very
favorable auspices-J. ]. House and

The MoRTUARY REPORT.-The report
of the Secretary Of the Board of Health
shows twelve yellow fever interments for
twenty four hours ending at o'clock
yesterday evening. The sudden change
from warm to cold weather has been
severe upon persons i'll with the fever,
materially increasing the mortuary lists.
But at the same time the atmosphere
has been purified (;f, indeed, it was not
already pure), and the spreading of the
disease checked Many persons are apt
to regard an increased mortuary report
as indicative of increased violence of the
fever. During warm weather the rule
holds good but no malady is as suscep.
tible to atmospheric changes as yellow
fever; sudden changes invariably in
crease fatality where great pains are not
taken to preserve even temperatures in
sick rooms During the past four days
the reports of deaths have shown greater
mortality than during any similar period
since the first appearance Of the fever.
At the same time the reports Of new
cases are growing smaller, until few are
now found each day.

The FREsHET SUBsIDING !-Of late
years there has been a perfect inunda-

of medicinal herbs. A Texan plant,
long used by the aborigines, is used by
Mansfield & Higbee, of Memphis, Tenn,
in the composition of their strictly vege-
table Texas Tonic Syrup, pleasant and
safe remedy, second to none as a cura-
tive in all cases of fever and ague and
other bilious, intermittent diseases.
