Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1878-08-22

Yesterdays report of new cases OF fever is
not by any means encouraging, 1t exceeding
the number of new cases OF the day before
TUESDAY, by thirty-two. The cause assigned
Tor this increase was the fact that we had
damp and heavy weather, with rain on Tues
day night--a condition of atmosphere said 10
be favorable to the spread of the disease.
The report of deaths gives Twelve, as against
six of the DAT before; This latter report as
to deaths would seem to prove that numbers
Of sick aad Commissioning are out OF danger.

astonished and surprised every body but the
physicians, many Of whom predicted such an
increase the day before. 1t Is a very large
increase when we recoilect that the infected
districts are comparatively depoI ulated. Ia
many instances imprudence no doubt caused
several to take the fever. Exposure to the
night air, sleeping In rooms lily VEN
tilated and not thoroughly disinfected,
sleeping in a district Of the city where the
very air. and especially at night, Is laden
with the poison or malaria. are causes to
which MAP be attributed much Of the in
crease The report, however, should be
warning to people, and should o-day induce
every person not sick to leave the infected
districts and seek the camps outside the city
for safety. The quicker this is done the bet
ter, and none should delay their departure q
day longer. Every inducement is offered to
the residents of sush districts to lea+e, but it
and run every risk Could the city be depop-
ulated, as it ought 10 be: the fever could be
stamped out within thirty days. This Is the
opinion OF our best physicians. But how will
the remedy be enforced? Below will be
found the startling record, which speaks
louder than words in favor of removing to the
country, where you will and pure air, pure
water aid pure soil.
