THE SCOURGE.

Wednesday July 30th, there were
thirteen cases and one death reported
at Memphis. 1t is now seen that the
theory of exemption on account Of hay
ing previously had the fever is all bosh,
as there are now cases in which parties
who had twice before had the disease,
have this time had it again--in one
case, that of Hatcher, proving fatal this
time. w. w. Corcoran, banker of
Washington City, to-day sent remit
lance of two thousand dollars to be
used in removing poor families from
the city.
Potter Palmer, of Chicago, to-day
also telegraphed his sympathies and a
donation.
The Towards say they are not yet
needing any outside aid, and will not
call upon the charity of the outside
world unless the urgent necessities of
the case demand it.
Thursday, July 31st, there were nine
new cases and five deaths reported.
The question of getting the negroes
to leave the city still remains a per-
picking problem. They (the negroes)
to-day held a public meeting at which
the following resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, We were Informed in adj
vance, by the president of the taxing
district, through the columns of the
Memphis Daily Appeal, that no aid
would be given to persons not going to
the camps established by him, and
every effort would be made to prevent
the poor of Memphis from obtaining
relief from any other source; therefore,
Resolved, That, as free men, we bold
ly assert the right to use every neces-
sary aud proper means TO relieve our
selves, and we hereby express our de-
termination to apply our united efforts
TO this object. We solemnly declare
that it is our purpose and intention to
protect the property of our refugee
friends as we have done heretofore,
and we call upon the merchants who
are absent from here TO assist us in re-
naming in the city as so many of us in
the city have charge OF their houses.
Resolved, That we Immediately pro-
coed to carry out the object OF this
meeting. Signed
James Lott, chairman; e. r. Bell, S.
NJ. Holland, III, Freeman, ST., A. w.
Brown, Il. r.. Morgan, A. Stevenson.
There are serious apprehensions chat
trouble may grow out of the position
taken by the negroes. The authorities
are firm ard determined in their prop
osition to issue no free ratioas in the
city. All those who will 60 into camp
viii be supplied.

AGRAND SUCCESS.

These two little words express it as
well as we could do were we to write q
whole column about it-about the
moonlight picnic last Friday night, we
mean. The night was delightful, the
silyery moonlight sheen bathing the
scene in flood of glory. The repast
served was simply superb. We have
seen larger and more pretentious BAN
quets with suppers far less excellent.
Dainties and dellcacies in abundance,
in profusion, we might say, were piled
and crowded on the table.
The election for Queen and King was
a lively race between the bellies and
beaux present. First the two greatest
gallants in town, Mr.. Geo. f. Howell
and Col. w. G. Ford, were put in NOM
ination for King. The Colonel proved
his popularity with the fair sex by de-
feating his good-looking and gallant
opponent by a large majority, but with
a magnanimity only equaled by his
gallantry he gracefully declined the
honor and abdieated the throne i'll favor
of some of the gentlemen present of
more tender years. Capt. j. w. Rus
sell, Rev. G.. w. heeyes, Mr.. Really
Doggett and Mr.. Henry Erwin were
then placed in nomination in rapid
succession and then to have seen the
electioneering, the manipulating and
the diplomatic wire-working that was
done by the fair supporters of the diff
erent nominees, would have made the
average political wire-worller of the
male persuasion blush at his own inef-
ficiency. After taking two ballots
Capt. Russell was elected.
The election for Queen was then
up and Misses Alice Roys, Lille Har-
key and Joe Fears put in nomination.
The first ballot resulted in the election
of Miss Lille Harkey. The corona
ton of the Queen then ensued. The
King with neat and graceful little
address placed the crown upon her
head announced the banquet, when the
destruction of the eatables commenced.
y We pass over an interval
of anything from half an hour to an
hour during which time your reporter
was trying to do justice to the excel
lent repast and the band was discourse
ing emusic in the air." After supper
we were hors du combat and retired.

/ ty owners and TO the general public for
their guidance, we further testify that,
| in making their choice between our
policy and that of the indictments,
| they must assume grave responsible
| ity of keeping human life exposed in
long months to great peril. They
must count on wasting a great proper
ton of their charity on idlers, who
sneak into town from adjacent points,
andthey must not be surprised if num-
| bers of those now engaged in relieving
want and suffering, shall in despair
abandon their arduots work, and leave
misguided people TO their fate.
Resolved, That in thus expressing
our minds under sense of duty to the
city and to the public, this committee
would not wish to utter one harsh or
angry word against people misled, as
we believe, by ambitious and uniform
ed leaders who seem to prefer their
own imagined oxidation or profit to
the best interests of their followers.
| The following resolution, offered by
Capt. James Glass, colored, was adopt
ed:
| Resolved, That the colored people be
informed through the papers that when
ever they choose to form camps under
the regulations already prescribed, out
side of infected localities, they will be
supplied on CamerOn's requisition, just
as they are at Camp Marks, provided
they be within the reach of the COM
missary depot of Camp Marks.
1t is now stated that martial law will
be declared in the city If necessity
for decisive Action arises.
Saturday. Aug. 2nd, the official re-
port to-day shows fourteen new cases
and seven deaths. The deaths for the
week are 26 against "a last week. The
| total number of cases to date are PIG;
total deaths 60. Memphis is an isolat-
cd city, the last railroad having with
drawn its trains. Notwithstanding
this, President thornton, of the Board
of Health, and in view of the decrease
of deaths for the week as compared
with last week, acting under the ad
vice of the national board of health at
Washington, has declined to declare
| the disease epidemic.
A case has developed eight miles from
Memphis on the Raleigh road.
Rumors from Moline say that there
have been over a dozen cases there,
Notwithstanding the denial of the
board of health.
The progress of the epidemic in Men,
phis was marked by "a new cases being
reported for the As hours including
Sunday and Monday-only four deaths
during the same time. The people
there are more hopeful. Some improve
ments are still going on. Nevertheless
it is hard to tell what day may bring
forth, and the work of depopulating
the city still goes on. Rev. Father
Doyle died Monday. His death is
greatly deplored.
Twenty-one new cases. and five deaths
were reported for Tuesday The pros
pect seems to grow darker each day.

The democracy enthusiastically
concede the supremacy of the nation
al authority in It's legitimate sphere,
and there is no need of Mr.. Sherman
exciting himself ON that point. But
the question at issue is, whether the
national authority, rs represented by
the executive department, has a
right to insure the perpetual SUI
premacy of party, by taking pos
session OF and controlling the polls
with the army and bulldozlng deputy
marshals? That is the question of
supremacy now on trial, Mr.. Sher,
man, and no amount Of bowling over
the ghost of secession will not affect
tbs verdict. Wy ashington Post.

What is Needed in 1880.

If the Democrats pull together in
1880, they. must achieve signal
victory. With a sound financial
platform like that Of the Pensylya-
mia Democracy, and with the issue
mape up squarely as to free and
pure ballot, an honest and fair jury
trial--no troops at the polls and no
ironclad oath to exclude the best
citizens from the jury box-and the
supremacy of the civil power over
the military, we cannot see why the
Democrats may not win.
