From the 6rst instant TO six O'Clock last
evening FIVE hundred and seventy three cases
of yellow-fever have been reported to the
board Of health, of which number one hun
bred and sixty have died, and about forty
have convalesced, leaving three hundred and
seventy-three still sick. Our only hope for
an abatement of the disease lies in the ability
of the city government to compel the people
white and black-who still remain here
TO leave for the camps. We need
more nurses and physicians. After dark it
is impossible to find, or if found, to secure
the services Of doctor. In addition to this,
until last night it was found almost impossi-
bic to get medicine after nightfall. The
camps are all doing well, the people bling
both happy and contented, and the citizens
executive committee is as provldent and cir
cumspect in the discharge of its duties as the
Howard association is Jealous and uni. ing
in succoring the sick.

An Answer TO >. n. Miles - COIOred
Democrats Organized and Ready
to do their Duty.

To the Editors OF the Appeal:
BURTON, PHILLIPS COUNTY, ARK, August
2l.-Iu a recent issue of your valuable pa
per appears an article from j. B. Miles, of
Helena, that misrepresents me. l am accused
by the writer of saying that colored persons
who do not wear the badge of my club will
be killed, etc. Now, | have a colored
club, and the following Is the bond of union
under which we are organized and acting:
eve, the undersigned colored citizens of
Spring creek township, agree to organize our
selves into a club, to be known as the Bart
Turner colored club, and our object shall be
to aid the white people in keeping the peace,
and peaceably electing the white mans ticket
at the September election, they agreeing US
protection; and we agree to select A. q. Jar
man our captain and leader. From whom
does my club wish to be protected? From
the political associates of J. B, Miles, who
have for years held them oath-bound for cor
rupt political purposes. My club numbers
one hundred and fifty of the best colored citi-
zens Of the township, and is still on the in
crease. They are all willing volunteers; no
brides, threats or intimidation have been
used. have been charitable enough to be-
Ieve J. B. Miles an honest, but an infatuated
and deluded man; but now | believe that
Misrepresentation suits him better than facts
when he is speaking or writing of those
whom he opposes. Let the truth be told.
