The South.

A special from Shreveport, La, OF the stn'
saws the backbone OF the pestilence mad peen
broken. Rev. Father LeasOnt, secretary OF tne
R,sbop OF Natchitoches, had died making the
6fth priest OF the diocese who had been strick-
en- down by the scourge. The NUMBER VI
deaths from the fever on the 9th he'd been ten'
The pestilenoe In Memphis had shown very III
lie signs of abatement on the 9th. Fifty-six
nurses had been sent from New Orleans. Sew
eral o. the first citizens of that city had died
during the day.
A Montgomery, Ala, dispatch OF the 10th an
nounces that the yellow fever had appeared In
that city. The deaths in Shreveport, La, had
only reached nine on the 10th.
A Memphis dispatch Of the 18th says that
the yellow fever epidemic was on the increase
and had spread over the whole city. CROWDS
continued to leave every day, which tended 70
create panic among those remaining. Busl-
ness was nearly at stand-still. The number
of deaths on the 18th, up to six p. m, was
forty-fve.
A dispatch from the Mayor OF Memphis TO
the Mayor of Cincinnati, on the afternoon OF
the 18th, says the yellow fever had not abated'
and that aid from abroad was wanted. other
dispatches say that it was thought that the
disease had passed it's worst, and that there
would be no more violent outbreaks. dis
patch from OwensvilIe, Texas, says the yellow
fever had broken out in that vicinity.
Dispatches from Memphis Of the 18th re-
port that the absence OF frost ana
the prevalence of warm and sultry weather
had caused an increase OF yellow fever. The
deaths on that day from the disease numbered
forty-one. The Odd Fellows had lost twenty
six members, four widows and wives and
eight children, and have now forty-four sick.

A German Sunday.

The Germans idea of Sunday is any
ling but Purltanic. 1t is the very oppo-
site. II is for them a day of amusement.
1t is no unusual thing to be asked by q
German on Monday morning, "Well, how
did you amuse yourself yesterday p
There are those among the Germans, of
course, who respect and keep the Sab
bath but then there are always enough of
them who do not; and to Judge by the
numbers in which they frequent their
places Of amusement on Sunday-the
parks, beer gardens, and public halls-a
stranger might possibly be tempted to in
quire whether the Germans had any idea
Of Sabbath. Men, women and children,
older men with their wives, and younger
ones with their sweethearts, throng these
places every Sunday, and enjoy them
selves, careless Of what impression they
make on their fellow-citizepso of American
origin, to whom the sound of brass instru-
ments on the Sabbath air is anything but
welcome or edifying. In the cold days of
winter, when the parks and beer gardens
are dreary and shOrn Of their beauty, the
German seeks amusement in some hall in.
stead. Here he treats himself to CON-
pound of rather heterogeneous elements
to music, beer and smoke; and to all of
them at once. Any Sunday afternoon in
the cold Of winter, you may find him,
with his wife or child, or both, in some
large hall, one of hundred or five hun
dred, smoking his meerschaum or his
cigar, slipping his beer, wine, or coffee,
and listening to a selection from Meyer
beer or Beethoven. Were it summer, he
would add the odor of roses to the fumes
of his tobacco and the smell Of his beer !;
for he is as fond of flowers as he is of any
of these, and he is never happier than
when the air, trembling to the notes of
the orchestra, is redolent with tobacco
smoke, the perfume of the rose, hello
trope, and hop, and he is himself in the
midst of them all.-Atlantie Monthly for
October.

DISPATCHES from Pennsylvania OF the 18th
were TO the effect that the Republicans had
been successful in the election In that State
on that day. Gordon, the Republican candi-
, date for Judge of the Supreme Court, had
been elected though he ran largely behind his
ticket. Mackey, the candidate for treasurer,
left Philadelphia with about 5000 majority.
His majority In the State would be nearly
double.
A dispatch from New York Of the l4th says
that on that day there had been another furry
In the stock market, and securities were
slaughtered In a discouraging manner, the
losses being heavier and the feeling worse
than at any time since the panic. The great
decline was due to the straits to which brokers
are reduced by their inability to secure loans.
Prices fell from four TO ten per cent, and sew
eral failures had been announced. New York
Central had fallen to 8211, and this was taken
as sign of Vandcrbilt's inability to
bolster it up, it having always been
his policy to hold up that stock,
no matter what the consequence was
TO other stocks. Western Union, an
other Of the stocks In which Vanderbilt is In
terested, fell to 4911, and Lake Shore to 593S.
The houses Of Burger, Hurlburt 81 Livingston;
Gillespie, Trowbridge ~ Co.; Whittemore, and
VIM HOge & Co. had suspended.
The latest returns from Pennsylvania, on the
18th, indicated that Gordon's majority for
Judge Of the Supreme Court would reach
about $4,000 Mackey had received about
81, 600 majority.
The Sixth Congressional District Democratic
Convention Of New York met in New York
City on the 18TH and nominated :. s. Cox for
Congress, in place Of James Brooks, deceased.
An Albany, New York, special OF the 18th
says that Charles II. Phelps, Cashier Of the
State Treasury Department, had been arrested
upon the charge Of robbing the Treasury OF
100000.
An Athens, Pa, dispatch Of the 18th says a
bold robbery had been perpctrated on the
First National Bank, OF that place, on the pre-
ceding night. While Charles Hull, the
cashier, was working at the desk, about 1880
In the evening, five men came In, and gagged
and handcuffed him. The vault doors and
the inner safe being open, the robbers secured
everything therein and escaped The cashier
was found on the floor Of the back office the
next morning in state of nervous exhaus-
ton. The loss TO the bank was probably
small, as it held but q small amount of cur
rency. The special deposits taken would
amount to about 800, 600, mostly negotiable.
Intelligence reached New York on the 18th
that the Cuban insurgents under Gomez had
captured and sacked the town Of Santa Cruz
del Sur, situated near Puerto Principe. Over
COO rifles and $1,000 cartridges, besides large
