New ORLEANS, Sept. Cen. Hoods
death is deeply mourned. His seyen-year
old daughter is improving. His son aged
years was taken sick with the fever yester-
day.
DR.. Plunket received report announcing
that the last case at Whitehaven had reeov-
cred from the fever, and that the disease
had been stamped out by isolation, all the
people of the village having been moved
ont into tents raised for that purpose. The
people will now, doubtless, be allowed to
return to their homes and re-conlmence
business.
One case of fever reported to be at
Grenada, Miss, is denied by DIR. Mitchell.
MEMPHIS, Sep. 2.-The fever is again
Enthusiastically on the increase, both inside
and beyond the limits. Twenty-eight new
cases were officially reported to the Board
of Health to-day, fifteen of whom were col
ored. In addition to these, seven cases
were reported, but too late to be included
in the report Of to-day. The indications
now point to a general spreading of the fever
to those towns that were afflicted last year
in this vicinity. In the neighborhood of
Buntyn Station, six miles east Of this city on
! the Memphis & Charleston Railroad, ten
cases of fever are reported by DIR. Heber
Jones, a Howard physician.

GALVESTON, Aug. 30.-This afternoon a
train was prepared and left for Houston to
test whether that city would enforce the
quarantine in the face of the Governors
proclamation ordering it removed. With
the train went the United States Marshal
and forty deputies, United States Commits
sioner and District Attorney, it being the
intention of these officers to arrest ali par
ties attempting 10 stop the train and try
them for interfering with the United States
mails. The train was stopped at the county
line by the Houston Health Officer who was
promptly arrested, as was the Health officer
at Websterville. Both were released on
bond. The train proceeded. Trouble is
apprehended when the train reaches Hous-
ton.
The News special from Houston says that
the Galveston train arrived at 4:45 p. m.
DISTINCTIONS were placed on the track be-
low the city, and when the train stopped,
all persons aboard were arrested by Mar
shall Morris, who refused to recognize the
authority of the Governor or the United
States Marshal. Great excitement prevails.

More True Inwardness.

The State board of health officials
here granted passes to two men, Lee
johnson and Ben Payne, to 60 to the
country to pick cotton Because they
desired to bring their pickings to the
city and did so in company with Frank
Brannon, a gin man, the trio were
arrested yesterday on a charge of
violating the board of health rules.
At thetrial before Esq. Galloway to- day
it was developed that Colonel Cameron
had instructed the pickets to take hold
of the brides of the animals in every
cotton wagon and turn their heads
from the city. The pickets stated
that Chief of Quarantine John John
son had given them no instructions of
this character, and upon this showing.
and upon the ground that the pickets
had exceeded their orders, the men
were discharged without penalty. The
board Of health business continues to
work most beautifully.
