SMALLPOX IN PHILADELPHIA.
SLIGHT INCREASE OF THE DISEASE IN SOME SEC
TIoNs OF THE CITY.

SLIGHT INCREASE OF THE DISEASE IN SOME SEC
TIoNs OF THE CITY
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 4, 1870
The report that the smallpox is raging in the
Twenty ninth ward of this city is untrue This section
of Philadelphia is of the handsomest being the
spot where OF the social mercantile and political
leaders have built their elegant homes. In the ex-
southern portion of the city, the Twenty
ward the disease has been discovered This section is
low and marhy and the drainage and general cafe of the
have been too long neglected by the city author
tiles This part OF Philadelphia always breeds malara
diseases, and occasional cases OF smallpox very
frequently be found there Quite number OF cases
have been found lately not without difficulty, as the
families OF those afflicted, through mistaken kindness,
often try TO conceal the patient Pancs have been
caused In several neighborhoods but the disease has
not been prevalent to cause well founded alarm.
In groundless reports OF danger have done
much damage. Last week some one started the rumor
that grocer Cathhrine street had smallpox in his
house. An Investigation finally made by some Of the
careful Of his neghbors showed the story to be
untrue; but in the meantime, every of the poor
mans stomers had deserted HIM without his being
aware OF the He almost driven in TO bank
ruptcy by this Needless injustice.
The public health authorities do not regard the slight
increase in the disease alarming, and say that II is
confined entirely to one two portions of the city
Last week. OF total OF $50 deaths reported only
four from smallpox, while thirteen were from
typhoid fever eight from scarlet fever and fourteen
were from diphtheria-
