mittee of Stewart county to trans
nit to your honorable committee
the following preamble and resolu-
lions adopted by the former at a
called meeting on the oath of Sept,
1873.
Whereas. DIR. VIM. A. West, the
nominee of joint convention, at In
dian Mound, for Floater from the
counties of Montgomery and
Stewart, having declined, it de-
wolves upon the Democracy of

sary steps to place another in the
field, therefore,
Resolved. That the delegates
heretofore appointed in each dis
trict to ascertain the choice of said
districts for Floater, be reappointed
for the same purpose, and that they
are requested to canvass their dis
tricts Immediately.
Resolved. That in case of refusal
of any delegate to act, the Executive
Committee for such district be
authorized to appoint a suitable
person to fill the vacancy.
Resolved. That said delegates be
instructed to ascertain the choice of
their district for Congress.
Resolved. That said delegates be
called to meet in Dover, on the first

TUESDAYS PRESS DISPATCHES.

BROWNSVILLE, Sept. 23.-There is no word
of cheer to-day. Ten new cases and five
deaths in the past "a hours. OF the new cases
seven are white and three cOlored. DIR.
John ]. Ware, President of the Board of
Health, has a severe attack, but is doing
well tonight. Among the deaths is Hop
Owen, agent of the Louisville & Nashville
and Great Southern Railroad, at four o'clock
this morning. He was useful and will be
sorely missed by his family and tine COM
munity. Robert H. Scott, Howard and a
noble worker, died at O'Clock this evening.
He gave his young life for the cause of hu-
manity. Capt. John Ashe, one of our most
faithful nurses and workers, is at Stanton,
down with the fever. The plague has broken
out with great vigOr at Stanton, and the
village is almost depopulated. James Dick
Calhoun, a promising and popular young
man, died there last night. Weare dividing
our slender resources with them. We sent
them two nurses this evening, although we
IS we loose all OF our nurses, Whlte or col
Ored, with the fever, because they have
never had the disease ana are sure 70 pc
taken down. We struggle along with 1t the
best we can and fall man, by man. Our
men are wearing out steadily, but the dis
ease is holding its own. If we had tents
people TO the woods and furnish them with
all they needed. Staying here is only
question of time, or frost, with all of us.
CHATTANOOGA.
CHATTANOOGA, Sept. 23-One death'iS re-
ported to the Board of Health, and six new
cases the death being that of Mr.. Burg,
whose wife and child died of the same dis
ease last week. There are several critical
cases on hand, two of which will probably
die tonight. The encouraging weather
report published in the American to-day
gives us much hope. DR.. Blackburn has
sent word that he will be here tomorrow.
We assure him a hearty welcome.

New ORLEANS, Sept. 23.-Deaths, A; cases
reported, 1874; total cases to date, 1872;
deaths, 25l4. Captain Thomas Taylor, for
merly master of the steamboat Erie, died at
Bay st. Louis, Saturday, of the yellow fever.
MEMPHIS.
MEMPHIS, Sept. 23.-The weather, has
turned warm again, which is favorable to
the spreading of the disease among those
who yet remain well. The hope that had eX-
listed in the breasts of the living that the
fever was abatipg, has been dispelled by
the reports of to-day. At the Howard head
quarters there has been one continuous call
for nurses, and the demand has given en-
ployment to many who were on the eve of
departure for their homes, thinking their
services were no longer required. The Board
of Health officially reports "a deaths for the
"a hours ending at 6 O'ceOck tonight. OF
these, y were cOlOred. This is n great in
crease as compared with the day previous,
when only % We're reported. A tug and
barges have been secured to forward the
supplies contributed by the cities of Louis
vile and Nashville to Greenville, Miss. DR..
luke p. Blackburn of Kentucky, will ac-
company the exposition, which departs
