a novel and remarkable plan has been adop-

THE official report records that of n
hundred and eighty-two persons who
left Lisbon for different places In Por-
tugal, carrying with them the germ of
yellow fever, which broke out or devel-
oped itself in them after their arrival
at those places, eighty six of them
died. In no case tcas yeltou Jerer con,-
mumicated from them to any other person
in the places ,rhither they trent." THE
italics are the authors.
Says Prof. H%artshorne: 1.-THE conta-
giousness of yellow fever from person
to person is disproved by the i'm
mense preponderance of facts incom-
patible with it, A very few apparent
examples of transmission by individu-
ais, if admitted to have occurred, are
otherwise explained. Transportation
by ships is admitted, because n ship
may carry Il section, as 1t were, OF n
locality, with all its conditions and at
mosphere. But, then, the port to
which the ship goes must have all the
conditions rife for the propagation of
the disease or its germs will not be
maintained so rs to cause an epidemic"
DR.. Flint: "Numerous experiments
to test the question of the communica-
bility Of the disease by incubation, by
swallowing the black vomit and by the
utmost possible exposure have led to
negative results. To cite II among
many experimental observations, Dow
Ter gives the following account: In
1905 Don Cabanellos, a Spaniard, slept
q night with his children in beds in the
Lazaretto, in which yellow fever vic
Tins had died. For submitting the
question OF contagion to this personal
test he was made physician to the royal
household, with an annuity of $1,000.
A number of galley slaves, who accom-
panied him, had M years imprison-
ment RENTED. The whole party num-
bered fifty, and no one suffered any
HARM
Other physicians mention that for q
test persons have swallowed the black
vomit, and have been inocnlated with
the blood and secretions of the afflicted
without injury. 20
Unless, then. the conditions of II city
are favorable, yellow fever will not
spread. In n clean, healthy city, like
Louisville, for instance, there is nc
danger, and the residents Of that city,
being enlightened on that point, have
no alarm. They know that the disease
must be confined to the refugees WHO
have come from the unhealthy districts.
While a native of Louisville might corr
tract yellow fever by u brief residence
in an infected district, lie may with i'm
pnnity visit the yellow fever patients
in his own city.

THE scarcity OF 81 and 81 greenbacks
and national bank notes, which so EN-
harnesses the bushes men of the West
at present, has been attributed wrong
fully, 1t seems) to the alleged policy of
the Treasury Department to retire 81
and 80 notes in order to make place for
subsidiary silver and for the new silver
dollars. The fault is to be laid at the
door Of onr very incompetent and
pseudo-economical Congress. A Wash
ington dispatch says that in former
years the Republican policy in Congress
was to make approximations for the
transfer of government securities and
notes sufficiently large to enable the
Treasury to supply the banks ut great
commercial centres with small bills for
the convenience of their customers.
But the Democratic economists have
reduced the appropriation TO some $50,
600, which is barely sufficient, probably
will not be sufficient, for the necessary
transportation of United States funds
from one Treasury office TO another.
There are now no funds remaining IL
pay the cost of the transportation OF
these small notes, and, consequently,
the country banks and the people can
not be supplied with them Mt the public
expense - Chicago Journal.

ANENr the discussion on the ''battle
above the Clouds" the Philadelphia
Times says: lEv
Whatever doubt Gen. Grant may en-
terrain as to whether there was ever
any battle on Lookout Mountain, there
appears to be no doubt upon the subject
in the minds Of those who fought on
the Confederate side. DIR. /. +. Maggie,
who was surgeon on the staff of Gen.
Hardee, contributes to the current num-
Der Of the Weekly Times n very inter-
esting account Of the operations at
Missionary Ridge as seen from the
Southern side, and his account of Gen.
Hooker's capture of the pivotal position
on Lookout Mountain leaves no room
to question the importance of that
achievement. 1t is true that the fight
upon the mountain is materially re-
duced in proportions in DIR. Nagle's
narrative, since the Confederates APP
pear to have got out Of the position as
promptly rs they could when Hooker's
men appeared .'above the Clouds" but
the ~gallantry of the movement is freely
admitted, as well as its bearing upon
the general engagement. DR.. Maggie
was a journalist as we'll as a staff OIL
Ger, and thus was doubly qualified to
describe, as he does in a very effective
way, the defeat which ended the career
of Gen. Bragg, and upon which the
Confederate officers have been generally
disposed to maintain a discreet silence.
