CEEEBRO-SPINAL MENINGITIS.

This disease is now epilemical in sec
toms Of California and Utah. Two cases
have occurred in Phoebe, one proving ia
tai. 1t is one OF the most fatal of human
maIa lies The following, concerning it,
taken from the Galaxy, of New York,
will be read with interest:
During the first half of the last year
eight hundred persons in this city were
attacked by a singular form of disease, and
Of the numbSr, SIX hundred died. Ply
Sicians call this disorder cerebro- spinal
u.eniugits, which being interpreted
u.. ms an Inflammation of the membranes
uveloping the brain and spinal cord.
Throughout the Northwestern States it is
popularity known as spotted fever, in the
south rs the cold plague, in Europe by
var GUS technical and local names, and in
ali countries as one of the most deadly
affections to which mankind is subject.
1t frequently, as in the present instance,
appears IN the form of an epidemic, and
its history is, that these visitations are
liable to recur after longer or shorter in
tervals. Like epidemic diseases in gen.
eral, it is no doubt largely preventible,
and the wonder is that with the extraor-
binary fatality which has always attended
it, there has never been any united pub
lie demand for the investigation of its
causes, or the means of staying its
spread. But in spite of this astonishing
Indifference on the part Of those who are
most directly interested, physicians have
obtained some important facts which seem
to link the origin of the difficulty with
overcrowding and the prevalence of filth,
conditions which at all times are too COM
mon in cities and towns, but which, with
stupid blindness to his own best interests,
man is forever tolerating. The evidence
that cases of this disease originate, partly
at least, through the operation of causes
that lie within our reach, though not as
full as could be wished, is still very con-
yincinp

THE ENLARGEMENT OF LINCOLN
COUNTY.

The measure adding to Lincoln county
the south half of that portion Of Nye
which had extended TO the north Of and
separated Lincoln from White Pine
county has became law. The north
half OF this portion of Nye goes to White
Pine. This detaches Lincoln from Nye
entirely on the north, and connects US
with White Pine county. The boundary
Of White Pine is reached, as the crow
flies, about forty-fve miles north of Pr
oche in the Snake Creek Valley. Before
the annexation our northern line was on
ly ten miles distant. We get some good
farming country by the acquisition, and
the rich and promising mineral district
Of Bristol-now attracting attention
throughout the coast The present in
crease of population is not very consid-
erable-does not exceed probably, three
hundred souls, but the newly acquired
territory may have a population of a
tLIOuSt.LNi, VI within VIC AtAA o.A
months, as Bristol alone is likely to give
employment to five hundred miners early
in the summer. White Pine county gets
Snake, Shoshone, Patterson and Silver
Park mining districts-the boundary run
ming along the south line Of the latter
and more farming country than we ac-
Quire, as the best part Of Steptoe Valley
is embraced within her lines.
We have not seen copy of the law,
but have been led to believe, by private
letter from the Capital, that Nye did not
make an unconditional cession-think
the assumption by Lincoln of $1,000 of
her county indebtedness was exacted.
But Bristol district alone will BE- worth to
the county revenues, within the next year,
if her presnt bright prospects should be
even partially realized, many times that
sum.
Our representatives are entitled to oul
THINKS for this consummation.
