A paradoxcal item comes from New Orleans,
to the effect that there are many respectable
ADD competent ply sc!ans in that city who, as
yet, have had no yellow fever patients. That
this is so We have no doubt, and until 1t is
denied We sen ~ good reason Why physicians
from abroad should 70 there. All the medical
material in the oity should certainly be called
iuto reauistioa before volunteer supplies should
be offered from outside. The physicians who
are there, End who arc aculimated, ought to be.
and doubtless are, more competent to treat
yellow fever than any that may now 20 there,
no matter how much experience the latter may
have had With tho disease in other places and
