BOY Wanted.

A FEW mornings since lady living
on Clifford street answered the bell to
find bulky boy with an innocent face
and peach-colored ears standing on the
steps. He explained that he wanted to
see her husband, and she answered that
her husband had left for his Office.
I'm the boy who sweeps out all the
offices where he is," said the boy as he
backed down the steps, "and this morn
ing found a letter in the big scrap
sack"
"Well, you can leave it," she re-
piled.
"I-I guess L hadn't BETTER" he half
whispered, as he showed the small pink
envelope.
"Boy-that is-boy. let me see that
letter!' she said as she advanced and
extended her hand.
80, 'twouldn't be 'zactly right,
ma am, cause know he'd gin me fifty
cents"
"See here, boy" she said as she felt
for the dollar bill left her to buy coffee
and tea, "you take this, give me the
letter, and don't say word to Mr.. -
about finding it.''
81 don't believe it's much of let
ter" he remarked.
"Never mind-hand it over-here's
your money!
"Mebbe there hain't a word of writ
ing in it, ma'am."
"Here-give me the letter-now

She took it and entered the house,
and the boy with peach-colored ears
flew down the street like a cannibal
going to dinner.
In about forty seconds the woman
came out, looked up and down the
street, and the expression around her
mouth was not happy and peaceful.
The boy had seemed to doubt that there
was any writing inside the envelope,
but she was not quite prepared to tear
it open and find printed document
commencing: Whereas, default hav-
ing been made in the conditions of
a certain mortgage" etc. She wants
to hold another interview with the lad.

The particulars of the loss of the
ill-fated steamer Emily B. Souder were
furnished yesterday by two of the crew
the sole survivors. SO far as known, of
the wreck, who arrived at this port
about noon on the steamer Atlas, from
Kingston, Jamaica. They told their story
on the dock at the foot of Christopher
street, in the very clothes in which they
had succeeded in effecting their mirac-
ulous escape from watery grave. The
odore Steinhardt. one of these surviv-
ors, was Quartermaster of the Souder.
and Alfred E. Anderson, the other, a
Swede by birth, was seaman.
son Sunday afternoon, Dec. 3, said
Steinhardt, "we left New York, and
nothing extraordinary occurred until
the Emily B. Soader was opposite Cape
Hatteras. On Tuesday morning we en-
countered rough, heavy sea, while
the wind blew hard from the southeast.
About eight o'clock we found the ship
leaking. The pumps were manned.
Every officer and every sailor was at
his post of duty, but Notwithstanding
almost superhuman efforts the water
gained on us, first slowly and at last
rapidly. At five o'clock in the after
noon the melancholy news spread that
the fires had gone out, but no one was
discouraged. We began to throw the
cargo and baggage overheard, passen-
gers as well as crew engaging in light
ening the vessel as much as possible.
But the water gained upon us, and soon
made existence below decks impossible.
"NothiDg was left now but to look
to our life-boats. The command to un-
loosen them was quickly communicated
to the crew. and, one of the boats hav-
ing been launched, was placed under
command of the First Mate. Including
the latter there were ten persons in tho
boat, among whom were four lady pas
sengers. Everyone was provided with
a life-preserver, some even having two.
The boat had only gone a few yards
from the Souder when she capsized,
and men and women were screaming
in the water for the help which no one
could render.
"The steamer was sinking steadily,
and tremendous efforts were being
made to launch the second boat. AL
of those then on the vessel helped to
get this boat clear. and we finally sue

Origin of the Yellow Fever in Memphis.

Origin Of the Yellow Fever in Memphis.
]. NJ. Heating, editor of the Memphis
Appeal writing Of the FIRST cases of yell
low fever in Memphis, says;
AS to its origin, it appears that the
wife of Mulbrandon had several trunks
full Of clothes which had been left her
by relatives who died Of yellow fever
during the epidemic of last year; that
within the past two weeks she opened
two or more of these trunks and took
out, shook, and aired their contents.
Blythe germs thus set free her husband
was inoculated after his system had
been reduced by the intensely hot
weather, to which he succumbed on
Saturday. Since his death not one of
his family, including his wife, her sis
ter, and nine children, have even 30
much as complained, and there has not
within the past eight days been a case
of any kind of fever reported in the
vicinity. This affords good ground for
the belief that many Of the conditions
necessary to the propagation of yellow
fever being absent, it will not spread. l
do not apprehend any epidemic this
year, though we may have a few spor-
adic cases like this M%ulbrandon.
AS to the other three cases reported,
Judge Ray, of the Criminal court of
this county, and his two children, it is
impossible to say how they originated.
Neither Of them has been out Of the
city since last November, the sanitary
condition of their home was perfect,
and their mode of life dictated by in
telligence and prudence. 1t was i'm
possible for germs to have concealed
themselves as in the a Of Mulbran'
don, as they were in the habitual use o.
their clothing, changing as 1t was ne
cessary for cleanliness or was made
necessary by the changes Of the wealth
er. The judge himself was remark
able for an undertaking mode of life
which was well ordered. He was tenn
perate in all things, and was so con
sentative as to be beyond the reach o
excess in anything. He and his sol
