M, Philadelphia and New York in

yer scventy-nine vessels injected with
yeow fever were quarantined ut New
Ick. The fever, however, was sue
ceslully confined to Governors Island
an the Long Island shore. Eighteen
hundred ana seventy was the next
yer i'll which the fever made itself So
veely felt; ON August 18th of that year
it vas discovered on Governor s Island
Frm that time until the Goth of the
following October it remained in and
aroud New York; l59 cases were re-
portd, tifty-two Of which proved fatal,
Mostof these occurred on Governors
lslau. In the city there were only
eleva deaths. The next and most Sc.
verelsitation of this scourge was last
year This is tCo recent To need men-
tion ere.
Its said to be curious fact about
yellU fever that il does not appear TO
be contagious disease. DIR. Janoway
and iany prominent physicians are of
this opinion. They say that il is OF
gernnal growth; that yellow fever is
itsela living organism. 1t thus forms
boundary line between contagious and
non-ontagious diseases; its poison is
not enerated in the human system,
but Internally. 1t not only attacks
persns exposed to the infected place,
but nder unknown circumstances may
be hnsported in vessels, trunks, rail.
roaears, etc, from point to point, and
turid loose to propagate. Like cho-
lern il occasionally assumes migra.

That happened 10 meether gaze.
Such perfectly lovely things she saw.
And perfectly awful, too,
That none would have dared TO doubt her
word,
so perfectly, perfectly true.
The weather. she said, in summer time
Was perfectly awfully warm;
The winter was perfectly, too, when there came
Some perfectly terrible storm.
She went to perfectly horrid school,
In perfectly horrid town;
And the perfectly hateful teachers there
Did things up perfectly brown.
Her lessons were perfectly iearfully long,
But never were perfectly said,
And when she failed, as often she did,
Her face grew perfectly red.
The church she attended is perfectly mag
With q perfectly heavenly spire,
And perfect crowds 90 there To hear

After such an investigation il might bu
thought advisable to undertake addi-
tionsl surveys to supplement what in.
formation now exists. Such explor.
atoms would, of course, require the
authority Of congress, but the creation
of this commission which would cause
no extra expense, could be effected with.
out special authority from congress. In
fact similar bodies are often called to-
