the heavy British fire. Lord Chelmsford

on all four sides. After the Zulus were
broken by the British fire they were
pursued by the cavalry and utterly

Every station along tho limo of the
Mississippi and Tennessee railroad be-
tween Memphis aud Grenada, having
quarnutined against Memphis no more
trains will be sent on this road till the
fever disappears. Twenty-Five tents
were given this afternoon to Father
Walsh, who will re-establish Camp
Father Matthew. One hundred nddi-
tional tents will be furnished as soon
as those sent by Government are re-
ceiyed. The city authorities will to-
morrow make selection Of a site for the
establishment of IL large camp. 1t is
thought that u spot se~ycuty-one miles
distant from the city on tho Puducah
railroad will be selected.
Mr.. Dekiyn, II telegraph operator. who
was at Memphis last Year. and who had
the fever there. left New York Weines-
day for Memphis again, going of his
own choice.
Thirteen new cases were reported to
the Board Of Health yesterday morn
ing. Among the number are j. l..
Reister, wife and child. and e1 Chief of
Police, Thomas w. O'Dounell. One
death has occurred. The fever seems
to be gradually spreading in the north
ern portion of the city aud Chelsea,
which up to yesterday had been exempt.
The Episcopal order Of the Sisters Of
St. Mary, Of New York, will send
nurses to their Memphis branch.
The expulsion of Isr% elites from Man
haitian Beach has made n decided sem
sation. The metropolitan journals, as
well rs those Of the suburbs, devote
much space to the subject, and teen
with interviews with prominent Jewish
bankers and others, in which the latter
hope the question may be dropped i'm.
mediately, and not bolstcrcd into prom.
i~nence. rs it was n couple of years ago
in the matter Of the Saratoga hotels.
Our hOodlums are certainly for the
social ostrncism OF Jews. rs are indeed
many others; but n majority of the
people deprocHte the movement as tend
ing merely to create bad feeling need
lessly. and ~stupendously advertise tho
Coney Island hotel.
The Heratd yesterday, commenting on
the estimate that six countriesiu Europe
will this year, be compelled to buy
800, 900 900 bushels Of wheat, md that
France and England will need three
fourths Of this quantity. says the oper-
ations this year will tend to greatly
stimulate the cultivation OF wheat lands,
and there is an unsettled district in
Northern Texas, which il is believed.
could supply alone rs 1ch ms Europe
needs this year.
