The Pest of Quarantine.

We have letter from Captain Schorvise
of the German bark Laura Maria, stating
that his vessel arrived in Pensacola, some
two weeks since, with officers and crew all
we'll. That the quarantine physician DR..
Blount placed his vessel near Spanish
vessel with sickness on board, and after
laying in this position eight days, sickness
broke out on his own vessel, some eight
sailors being sick. The captain asked that
the men be placed in the hospital, but the
doctor stated that the sick could be as well
cared for on the ship, as on the shore. The
captain asks how it is that in civilized
country, within three miles Of city, it is
impossible to get proper attention for the
sick, and appeals to his countrymen here
to give him advice and how to act.
There is no doubt that the quarantine is
badly managed, and if the captain states
the truth, and we have no doubt he does, it
is criminally managed in placing vessels
with all on board in health alongside OF one
with sickness. Our commission merchants
here are vitality interested in this matter,
and they should take some action whereby
the officers and crews of vessels should be
protected. We know that captains of YES
sells are generally grumblers when their
convenience is interfered with, but these
complaints of the quarantine are of daily
occurrence, and something should be done
at once to see if they have any foundation

Local Intelligence.

A WALK OFF.-Mr. James Ferguson an
nounces that he will walk from CarrolltOn
to Baton Rouge in twenty.tour consecutive
hours. The distance between these two
points, by river, is one hundred and thirty
four miles. By land route the pedestrian
will probably gain many miles by taking
advantage of the river bends opposite Dom
jacksonville, Bayou Goula, and Plaquemine,
though he does not say whether he will make
a bee line where the roads allow it, or fol
low the river bank. With good boats on
the river there is hardly necessity for this
walk, particularly as Mr.. Ferguson is not
a delegate to the Committee of Seventy
convention which is to meet at the Peni-
Tertiary capital. With the thermometer at
about 1909 he can scarcely expect much
pleasure out of his trip, and it Is in
ferred that he travels for fame. He starts
from Carrollton this evening at six o'clock
AS it will be exciting to see him start, many
persons will dOutless visit CarrOllton for
that purpose.
CUTTING, SHOOTING AND SLAsHING.-Sun-
day morning, Louis Berenger and Samuel
Roberts paid their devOtions to each other
in hostile manner. on the levee head Of
Delachaise street. Berenger pulled out his
little shooting iron and blazed away so
carelessly that Roberts stood in the path of
one OF the bullets. The shooter was ar
rested.
Henry English and jackson Douglass
were abused by Henry Salisbury at Camp
Parapet, Sunday evening and then wounded
by him. Salisbury shot English in the
stomach and Douglass in his back, and it is
probable that English will die. The bellig-
erent man, who was drunk, is under arrest.
Nine lively buckshov sent from musket
entered the right-hand side of Charles
Beahmer near Pass Manchac. He and
Charles Berth were hunting, when some
one secreted in the bushes fred, with the
result as stated. Beahmer, who was brought
to the Charity Hospital here, states that at
first he thought Berth had attempted to
kill him, but Immediately afterward saw
James Duck running off. Berth and Duck
are not on friendly terms, which leads to
the belief that Duck intended to kill Berlin.
John Johns intended to get even with
Mary Clayton, and when he found her at
the corner of Lyon and Tchoupito ulas
streets he attempted to shove out her life
with razor, and then escaped. The wo-
man was badly cut in two places.
John Rose thought to pass and uninter-
rupted Sunday evening on Burgundy street
but Mary Lewis prevented him. The
woman did her best to drive knife clear
through his breast, but got it only half way
in, for which she was arrested.

The Adams Camp Meeting.

The Adams Camp Meeting.
For several days past Scott's Station,
sixty-three miles from this city, has been
one of this most animated points on the
Mobile railroad. The colored MethOdists
of Mississippi, joined by numbers from
Alabama and Louisiana, are holding a
camp meeting, and will continue until the
seventeenth instant. The camp is named
in honor of Rev. Moses Adams, presiding
elder, who is deserving of the compliment,
because Of the deep interest he takes in
the welfare of his charge. The ground is
located about half way between the rail-
road and the seashore, in pine forest, and
the temple is well constructed, quite after
the pattern of that at Biloxi. Rev. S. H.
Hart is the minister in charge; Rev. Curtis
Benford, local preacher; Rev. Moses Adams,
presiding elder. Therequisite buildings were
constructed by those in charge Of the camp
on ground rented for the purpose, and
az soon as the society is able they will pur-
chase the land, expecting to hold annual
meetings, and it is hoped that friends in
the faith will remember this. The field for
operations is large one and the point a
central one, convenient for members from
Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi The at
tendance was not great until last Saturday
and Sunday, when the congregations were
very large.
During the present week, probably next
Saturday. special train Of cars will leave
this city for the camp ground, and delega-
tons will leave Mobile and all the coast
villages at the same date. 1t will be well
tor worshipers from distant points to pro-
vide themselves with fat lunches, as the
restaurant accommodations are insufficient
to supply more than two or three hundred.

OUT OF TowN-Saturday and Sunday it
seemed as if half Of our inhabitants piled
themselves on the Mobile cars for short
jaunt. A large majority went to Biloxi
and enjoyed good time. The Sunday
night train, very long one, brought back
a weary looking crowd, and some of them
must have absorbed large quantities of
green seal soda water. That is the suppo-
sition, because on landing here several men
made bad limitations of persons walking on
plOwed ground.
