THE sTEAMROATWEN'sR RELIEF Assoc
gEATHDN,

The members OF this charitable and very
useful association had q busy day of 1t yes
terIay. The visiting committee made seven
ty-one calls. Mr.. Ben Burch was not doing
so well. Mike Flood was reported very low.
Death reaped harvest among the fraternity
yesterday, the association taking to their
last resting place, the silent tomb, three of
them Leon A. Groms, steersman Of the BGs-
trop: John Hare, clerk Of the Il. o. Stanard,
and Capt. Gabe Block. Capt. Block is q
brother OF Capt. Sam Block, now In business
at Trinity, La and he was we'll and most
favorably known in connection with the
steamers Stella Block, Trenton and w. J.
POitevent. He was a young and quite q
promising man, possessed of q most amia-
Bile disposition, and the news of his death
caused sincere regret, for every one who knew
him was friend. The association also buried
another child of Engineer Gormly. Nine
teen applications for relief in money were re-
ceived and granted. Nine acquisitions for
rations were drawn on the Orleans Relief
Committee. Among the contributions re-
@aved yesterday, q list of which will be found

TINE KGEs rs.

At the meeting Of the Peabody Subsistence
Association held last evening, it was resolved
that the association shall meet hereafter only
on the evening Of those days on which rations
are issued: that is to say, on Mondays, Wed
nesdays and Fridays.
The subject Of the announcement of the
Howard Association to the country ut large
that that association had sufficiency of
funds for the present, was taken up by the
Peabodys and discussed. Mr.. w. g. Black
Mr.. Newman and Mr.. Marks concurred In the
opinion that the announcement might be con-
strued to apply to the Peabodys rs we'll as to
the Towards, which would be an unfortunate
occurrences: for even after the Towards shall
have closed their labors there will be many
destitute convaescents who will not be pro-
vided for by the Towards, but must look to
the Peabodys for relief.
It was agreed therefore, that the chairman,
Mr.. Newman, and Mr.. W. g. Black, constitute
o. committee to confer on the subject with the
Towards and telegraph throughout the coun-
try that as long as the epidemic lasts oontri-
buttons of provisions and money will be
thankfully received Mt the free market for
those who are being daily made destitute in
direct consequence of the yellow fever.

Our population of Irish descent is never
backwards either in works Of patriotism or
charity. Where help is needed they are always
to be found, whether it be upon the deadly
BREACH in the peaceful avocations Of q quiet
life or at the bedside of plague-stricken pa
TENTS.
The Ancient Order of Hibernians, true to
the old traditions, have been doing good work
since the beginning of the present epidemic.
They have taken care Of and relieved 1876
members sick from the prevailing scourge, Or
out of employment on account of the hard
times.
Up to date they have buried thirteen mem-

TEE FEVER AT TMHBODAUX,

Superintendent Lusher received the follow
ing letter yesterday from the president OF the
Howard Association at Thibodaux:
OFFICE HOWARD ASSOCIATION,
ThibOdaux. La September IL. 1878.
Hon. r. M. Lusher:
Yours of September 10 is at hand, incloslng
$25. Be assured that the members of the as
ISOLATION and the people Of Thibodaux will
gratefully rem ember the generous act of one
who is q friend indeed. The fever here is of O.
mild type. 1t broke out in the Mount
Carmel Convent, In which two nuns died.
Outside of this, up to yesterday at
midday, there have been twenty cases, and
one death, which was almost certainly from
neglect of family to properly guard him.
Yesterday AMI this morning to IL NJ there
have been about fifteen more cases; all doing
we'll. We fumi gate this town thoroughly
every night just after sunset, with tar and
sulphur, and are satisfied that if it has
not kept away the fever it has rendered the
atmosphere 50 pure that the poison of the
fever loses its power. We are so firmly con-
WINGED of that point that we intend keeping it
up SO long as we fare no worse than we have
been doing. Respectfully.

MECHANICS AND LAROgERs' AID AS
sUCH AXIOM,

The general suspension OF business and
industry has thrown many hundreds of men
Of all classes out Of employment and brought
upon numerous families much restitution
and suffering. The mechanics and laborers
have constituted the largest class of sufferers.
We learn, however, that the Young Mems
Mechanics and Laborers Aid Association of
the Fourth District has thoroughly organized
for mutual aid and protection. This associa-
ton contains some of the most capable and
enterprising mechanics and industrious la
borers in New Orleans. Those of them who
need aid amongst them are reluctant, and,
indeed, unwilling to solicit it, and they have
consequently organized for mutual protec-
ton. The association solicits assistance
from their fellow mechanics and others.
