Inmates that Morton has resumed his

and wavedthe CORY undergarment aloft,
just in time to please the fancy and cap
tivate the hearts Of tn delegates to the
State ConYeptiQn,rq The coincidence is
certainly suggestive of the suspicion.
AS between Grant and Morton, there can
be but little, choice. Neither stands a
ghost of chance for the nomination
The conservative element of the Repub-
lican party will oppose TIRE Nomination
of such pestileht' agitatof DIS Morton,
while Grant is not seriously thought of
outside OF the bread and butter brigade,

1t was in Jackson during the epidemic
of yellow fever, inq1S53, he served the
sick with devoted esre> nd'zuoriu1led
skill, relieving the suffering body of its
torturing pain, and cOnsoling the dying in
their agony. So terribleWas this scourse,
that physicians and ministers fed away away,
leaving him, and two other Catholic
priests, alone TO succ0r, not onllyy their
own people, but the abant1bned ifbcks,
His two assistants were thong left to
him, falling victims to that DESTROYING
fever, and martyrs to their devoted zeal
This,is all true as to the Rev. Mr..
Leray, put a cruel injustice TO other self
sacriticinags'ministers of religion, as well as
to the Meaical faculty Of our city, The
writer's remembrance of what occurred
in our death!stficRedf 3cofmAmmityh On
that occasion, is vivid. The Rev. DR.
Marshall, -Vicksburg, after battling
with the PeSStileYpee at his own home until
1t had abated there, came to jackson and
labOred heroically in the cause of,humhp-
ity, nursipg the sick, and administering

His labors can never beeforgotten by
those who passed with him through those
trying scenes. A marble Sab in our
