Dr. ]. Joe williams, now sick With
yellow fever, il at Rozel Station, on the
Memphis and Charleston railroad, two
and half miles from the city dis
condition was very critical during the
past night. His temperature mounted
up to 1864 degrees F. at midnight, and
it was only by the constant use OF brandy
that be was kept alive. After half-past
two O. clock this morning, however, the
temperaturs began TO recede, and at nine
o'clock to-day he was quite cheerful, and
expressed himself as hopeful, through
God mercy, Of recovering We sin
cerely trust that this good and useful
man may be spared to us and to his
family. Very many others will reiterate
our prayer.
Officer Thomas O'Mahoney, of the
police force, died last night from yellow

force that has been carried of by the
epidemic, ~ "a w -, "A
Mr. John Clancy, also Of the pelice
lforce, was taken sick yesterday and is
very low. DR.. Blackbdrnis his attend
ing physician, and has hopes OF his
recovery.
The northern portion of our city pre-
sents a terrible appearance; most all OF
the dwellings are abandoned, and but
few stores Of any kind are open.
There was man buried from house
ou Jackson street yesterday, which made
the sixth person that had died there.
Tn many houses whole families have
been carried away by the plague, and
the few still living there have become
90 accustomed to seeing hesrse with
perhaps one carriage following that
they hardly stop to inquire who Is being
buried. Volumes might be written OF
scenes that daily occur there.
The venerable Esq. Richards, City
Register for the past twenty-five or thirty
years, is reported sinking fast with yel-
low fever aud a complication Of diseases.
Billy Bridges aud Samuel Richards are
sick 10 the same house, but are getting
well Of the fever. Esq Richards, al.
though feeble with age and walking Only
with a erutob, has gone among the sui
fering % aid and comfort them, day and
night, since the disease appeared, aud
has friend employed 70 assis, him. His
last works have been his noblest.
We hear Of several new cases to-day.
