IT IS GRATIFYING to know that the
yellow fever is rapidly abating from
southern infected cities and terrible as
has been the scourge, the fatality in
New Orleans does not equal that of 1853
when 5000 died in two months. Up to
the present time there have been lit
tie over 1900 deaths, two.thirds of
which belong to New Orleans and Mem
phis. A few weeks ago we published
an article handed US by DR.. Bush, it
being the opinions of eminent physi-
clans in the South, that the yellow fe-
yer only continued epidemic sixty days
This theory has been completely over
set and will now have to be consider,
ably modified. 1t is three months since
it became epidemic in New Orleans and
the end is not yet in view it is proba
bic another month will pass away be-
fore it will entirely disappear. There
are very decided reasons for this long
continuance Of the scourge. 1t begaI
early in the season, and warm weathe
has continued unihterruptedly unit
now. Frosts have come only Of lat'
and have not yet prevailed extensivel,
enough to produce cessation of tn
deadly plague.

large purchases of the stock forced Into
the market by . fsighteusd people At .
heavy Lose. Another day the same gold
gamblers are tl,s Bulls Who force the
markets up, and Ind ready sale for
the stocks Of which they are heavy
holders to the sans persons for whom
they acted as agents in tho former
transactions, by which dishonest means
they rec~ive two percentages for one
handling Of the same stock.
The evils we have mentioned are but
a few of those which are continually
sapping the foundations of our Repub
lie, but they are enough To call a halt,
and to give the people little time to
reflect upon the evils to our nation,
which are inevitable, unless honesty
and justice take hold Of the reins OF the
government. Our nation is young yet
compared with the nations Of Europe,
but If VIZ desire to continue . strong,
vigorous and powerful Republic, VT
must send better men TO Congress than
those who compose that body at present.
Our nation is too young to be numbered
with the exploded republics which ap.
pear like dots upon the pages Of histo-
ry, and the danger alluded TO can only
be aver,ed by strict adherence to the
principles Of honesty, justice and integ-
rity.
Daily Republican., 1878-10-28

THE MIDDLETowN Transcript has dis
covered that Democratic tickets have
been circulated amongst the farmers
down the country, with the name Of
Philip R. Clark, the Republican candi-
date, upon them for Sheriff, and from
the manner in which it is calling upon
the faithful not to be deceived, it is
evidently alarmed, even though the
Gazette predicts the election of John
Pyle by from any where between 20O0
and 5000 majority. Democrats had
better be little careful how they give
complimentary votes to Republicans or
they will find that before the next eec.
ton comes around they will have been
disfranchised. The only way to be
sure of always having vote now a.
days is to vote the Democratic ticket
without any adulteratlon. There can
be no doubt that great many Demo
Gratis are going to vote for Mr.. Clark,
and the fact Of them having Democratic
tickets with his name upon them, is
no evidence that they are deceived,
rather that they want to vote just such
a ticket.
