The Election on Thursday.

Most people may not be aware ot the
lac, that there Is to be an election on
Thursday to choose q delegate in the
plsce Of Dr.. HuLMuEN to the lower
branch Of the Legislature. We therefore
remind them that such On election is I'M
mediately upon us, and that all who de-
sire to participate in the proud privilege
Of tho elective franchise on this
occasion must bear the circumstance
in mind. We have no exhortation to
make about voting early and often, nor
10 we propose to gush as to the impor-
lance Of the affair, but nevertheless as
the matter has taken non.partisan sort
Of a turn, and as General PANNEL is nu'
merously importuned to take the field and
serve his countrymen without distinction
Of race or color, or previous condition ol
seryitude, and as h6 has bowed himself In
meek submission TO this unleeling demand
upon his time, his money, his health and
bis happiness, we feel that it Is as little as
we can do to blow a blast on this horn Of
ours and call on the Republicans, the
Democrats, the Liberals; the Amalekites,
and the Jebusites, and all the heathens
round about to come together on elec.
,ion day and help immediate him on the
altar Of the public interests.

causes, thirty.eight from yellow lever and
nine from other causes, falling Off OF
ten from all causes, and eight from the
prevailing malady. IN view of the sud.

aud last night, sufficient to produce
frost this mornsng, the falling OFT
was not looked for. 1t Is almost snre ev.
Idence that the scourge has succumbed

next few days, when we will be able TO
announce the glad news that the scourge
has departed from Memphis, Pros
