Tho statement that President Tilden is
afflicted with partial paralysis should not bo
taken to mean that he is suffering from u
paralytic stroke, or that he is in any immc-
diate danger. These symptoms have existed
for many years, and though they have not
grown worse, it was still thought best that
he should undergo careful medical treat

rFNAroR EDMuNDs, Of Vermont, is

he introduced two resolutions, one de
clarins that it is the duty Of Congress
to provide by law for the full and i'm
partial protection Of all citizens in the
right to vote for Representatives in
Congress, and the other instructing the
Judiciary Committee to report bill for
the protection of such right and pun
i.hmrut of infractions thereof. The
resolutions were ordered to be printed,
and will be called up within few days.
This puts the Democratic members i'll
a tight place. They dare not vote
against 50 self evident proposition, or
AGAINST fair bill to ensure fair cleo
ton. North aud South. A good deal Of
squirning may be anticipated, howev-
er. and if they can wrigGlr out Of the
dilemma they will DO so.

The Health Of whining ton.

II is true that there is considerable
sickness in the city at the present time
but one Of our prominent and most pop
ular physicians informs us that the re-
ports in circulation Of the unhealthy
condition OF the city are very much .x-
aggerated; that he has not had more
than six or seven cases Of typhoid and
he thought that he had as many as
any other physician in the city. lie
says the diseas. is not epidemic from
the fact that it does not generally
spread in families where one OF the
members is attacked, though in some
instances there are more than one case
in family. That it is malarlal or
caused by the overflow Of the marshes
around the city, our informant says is
disproved by the fact that there is 10
more of it existing in the low overflow
ed portions of the city than in the high
er parts, where DO flood can reaGh--in-
deed it looks ~ if there were more ty
phoid in what are considered the
healthy portions of the city, than in the
unhealthy, which may be accounted
for from the fact that people in delicate
health generally seek ont the most
healthy portions for residence, and
they are this most liable to be attacked
by disease or to be- affected by sudden
changes of weather, which most invarl-
ably brings on sickness. The causes
of so mnch typhoid our informant could
not account for fully, but he thought
the sudden and severe changes III the
atmosphere, from extremely hot wealth
IF in the summer, to extremely cold
weather in the winter had much to do
wirh it but h- thou ht Will. We hai
more typhoid than usual there was a
noticeable ahsrnre Of ot4er diseases. !!
our nei gn boring cities ,.ad not SO much
typhoid they had more dipthrrla, scar
let fever, smallpox or something else,
equally as bad, and soiur OF them much
worse than the typhoid. The truth OF
this is attested by the mortuary reports
of the cities in which the per crutagc o!
increase in mortality in Wilmington j.
not greater than in others, a,Id not AZ
large as IN some Of them. Thrtyphoid
is easily checked If taken IT, tlu,, and
the great causr Of so many bat and ia
tai cases is a neglect to apply til" proper
remedies at the first inception Of the
disease. Our Informant does not think
that our drinking water had anything
pure now as it had been for many years
past, and if that was the cause there
would he a more general spread OF dlS'
ease rs all use the Brandywine water,
| He called our attention to the fact that
these exaggerated reports of the ty'
phoid being Of an epidemic nature, and
that the water was impure, were lnjur
ing our city and keeping persons from
visiting it. In some cases people from
the country wishing to make purchase:
had passed on through to Philadelphia
being afraid to stop in Wilmington, Oh
account Of these exaggerated reports o
epidemic diseases. Wilmington, oul
informant states, is one of the health
est cities in the Union, having the al
vantage Of excellent surface drainage,
which washes off every impurity, and
makes it desirable a. a place Of resi-
dence, and not a place to be avoided.
