Decline of Epide mic Small. POx.

We'are grained to De aOie 10 record Inc
rapid decline of smallpox in New Orleans
and vicinity. At one time it threatened to
spread extensively. and in very malignant
form. During the days of its first appear
ance the city authorities were too much
occupied with the business of hanging to
their positions to give much attention to
public matters. The suggestions of the
Board of Health were, therefore, quietly
tabled and neglected. Under the new order
of things, however, we noted an immediate
change. In addition to cleaning up the city,
which no doubt had good auxiliary effect,
the Board was authorized to employ and
control health officers in the various dis
tricts, and to them was assigned the duty
of vaccinating all persons liable TO small.
pox, and taking such other precautionary
measures as experience shows to be benef-
cial, and medical skill approves.
The following official report to the Board
of Health, just sent in by DR.. c. P. Ames,
of the Fifth District (Algiers), will show
what has been accomplished across the
river, and may be taken as a sample of
what has oeen done IN the other DISTRICTS:
OFFICE SANITARY INSPECTOR,
titth District, May l3. 1870. !
To the President Of the Board of Health;
DEAR SIE-I have vaccinated. since the
first OF April, three hundred and tifty-three
cases. In no instance did any unpleasant
results follow. Smallpox has not occurred
in any OF the cases vaccipated. There was,
on the first Of April, an epidemic of small
pox raging on MIR. Statous' plantation. i'm
mediately went down and vaccinated all Oh
the place, and as soon as case recovered or
died, had the house Thoroughly fumigated
with free chlorine gas The result was beau
tiful; there were eight cases on the first of
April, and in less than thirty days there was
not a single case of smallpox on the place.
l have fumigated fifteen other houses; in no
instance has new case broken out in the
houses thus fumigated, and the inhabitants
properly vaccinated. think the abatement
of the epidemic Of smallpox is almost Who'll
~ due to these two facts, namely. VAGINA
ton and fumigation.

Death of Charles Dickens.

The cable dispatches on Friday of last week
brought the sad intelligence of the death of
Charles Dickens, the novelist. He died of
paralysis on Thursday evening, at his resi-
dence at Gadshill, near Rochester, in Kent.
The dispatches say, "Ile was seized with fit
while az dinner on Wednesday, and his con-
diton continued to grow worse and worse.
Physicians on Thursday were summoned from
London, but they soon pronounced the case
hopeless; and the patient gradually sank,
and breathed his last at Is minutes Of 6 p. NJ"
Mr. Dickens was born at Portsmouth, Eng
land, Feb It'll, 1912. His father, John Dick
ems, intended him for the profession OF an
attorney, and placed him in an attorneys
Office for that purpose but he soon exchanged
the uncongenial occupation for the more
agreeable duties of newspaper reporter. An
article from Erry SotuJday, on our second
page, written before his death, traces his sub
sequent career so fully that we need not repeat
it here and it also pays fitting tribute to his
great literary merits. Doubtless, rs a novelist
no author in the English language, if in any
other. ha- written more charmingly or sue
cesstully than Charles Dickens. His name is
a household word in every family, speaking
his own language, as well as nearly every 9th
er language throughout the civilized world
and many OF his creations are now and doubt
less through all time VIII be as Familiarity re

The cable dispatches from England. during
the week have been chiefly occupied with the de-
tails of the death and burial of Charles Dickens.
HIS remains were conveyed, on the morning OF
the l4th, from his late residence at Gads Hill,
to Westminster Abbey, where they were deposit
ed in the Poets Corner, at the foot of Handel

funeral was attended emily by the family, and
wholly without ostentation or display.

of other crops are discouraging.

Internal Revenue.

Have the people of Illinois any idea OF the
cnormty of the annual cXactions they are
obliged to pay to support the huge machine
~ of our national government? a state
ment in the Springfield JoVr0a'. prepared ny
Gen. l. J. Bloomfield, supervisor OF internal
revenue of this state, shows that for the year
ending April 3Oth, 1870, Illinois paid Sill s1-
o73.Si revenue tax, an increase of S5,jS5,32S.-
- since last year. We groan when we pay
two millions year in state taxes, at the same
time that we are paying nine times as much
to the government in one species OF taxation
alone But the internal revenue taxes are
not half nor quarter the taxes we pay to-
wards supporting the government AT least
Sis, 100000 more year that 20 into the trea-
sury arc collected oil our people in the shape
of tariff duties. and then double that amount
more, at least are paid to manufacturers IN

but all of which goes as bounty to man
