Fnnerea, Literature.

This branch OF literature has gone to an
excess unknown in former days. We have
observed that several ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
have commented upon it Of late and object
cd very earnestly to the volume OF dotorois
bad taste and cStrayagant iaudatlen tnat
has been turned upon the country. 1t Is re-
markabte that while the churches have set
their faces against personally eusogistic aus
courses, the legislatures, the courts. &c,
have launched out into unprecedented pro-
lix;ty and often mawkishness OF euloststlc
yerbiaye. We observe that in the Legisia-
tnre OF New York the announcement ofthe
death Of Jons MoRRIssEY was made the oc-
cas;on for six eulogies in the Senate and i've
In the House. These eulogies were com.
pei,ed TO be eytravagant; for such is the
fashion. They were mostly hackneyed IN
phrase and tedious in length. Poetry was
,,ered in to gem the flow eiegiac with about
the usual good taste. An inspired orator
broke out In quotation thus:
I'VE are born. we laugh, we weep,
we love, we droop, we die so
Alas! why do we love, why 90 we uss r..
Who knows that secret deep ?-Alas! not l..
He had too much philosophy to attempt an
answer TO the poets interrogatories; but We
may suppose that he regarded the deceased
as having gone through the stages humai
here described. Another. moralizing on TIT
life Of the departed Senator, beneVo'entl'
concludes in an original quotation thus:
No further seek his merits to disclose,
Or draw his fraiHties from their oreaa aoo"e'
1haro thew alike In trembling hope repose-
The bosom of his Father and his God.
The climax OF Legislative euiosy ana so
cisl grief was in the closing discourse de
liyered lust before the resolutions wer
adopted, and this effort closed as follows:
..He is dead. 1t is the common herltag
81 the sons OF men. He has gone to tina
land OF shadows toward which we are al
fastening; but he has gone buoyed up an
soothed by the hopes OF blessed lmmor
tality-hopes that lift the dark pail from tn
norfals OF the tomb, rob the grave OF II
victory and death of its sting. Ana WINE
in the language Of the old Latin Poet' W
NAV saw, ST terra tibi leuts,' May tn
earth lie light upon his body we may ais
add the words of that Church In who's
faith he died, inlay Heaven have mercy OF
his soul.'''

is getting cool, Nevertheless, IL WI
are not careful, It might be that before
q frost comes the yellow fever would
make sad havoc In cur midst. We
have had a very hot, dry summer,
with no thunder, and the atmosphere,
even in this healthy section, is per-
haps In a condition favorable to the
spread Of disease, An ounce of pre-
vention, you know. Is worth more than
n pound Of cure, and We would impress
upon all the necessity of absolute
cleanliness, and in this connection we
publish the following from the Vicks.
burg Herald:
MANY OF our citizens think pulverizt d
charcoal Is almost a sure preventive OF
yellow fever. They point to the fact that
many families in this city used It during
every visitation of the yellow lever, and
not one Of them had the disease. The
proper way to use il is mixed with II littla
sugar and water, Il tablespoonful ut dose,
once or twice Il day before meals. 1t can
be had Of any druggist. Others have
great confidence In tnrpcntinc They
say 1t Is the best dsintectant of rooms
now known, and that Bronze John refuses
to call when turpentine is kept constantly
open In small vessels In every room. A
little poured in saucer and kept in every
room IN the dwelling is sufficient"
We would add that the burning OF
sulphur and tar is well, and the use of
lime about Hater~clssets and out
houses.

There has been some excitement here
during the last few days, caused BY the
death Of Miss Lilly Wlnburn on Sunday
morning. Miss Wlnburn--in company
with some frieuds-wns here rs refugee
from yellow fever in West Tennessee
During the progress OF her sickness her
physician, DR.. Murrcll, came to the con-
clusion that her disease was yellow fever,
she was also seen by Dr.. Shapard, who
concurred in opinion with DR.. Murrell.
Holding such an opinion-wlth the best
lights eforc them--thc Doctors deemed it
their duty to advise their friends and the
public thereof at the same time express
ing the confident opinion that rs the dis
ease did not originate here there was little
or no danger Of it attacking any one else
notwithstanding which many Of our
people became greatly excited. But the
panic is about over, and we feel confident
that we are in no danger Of yellow fever
here.
