THE SMALL POX.

DUTIES OF PHYSICIANS IN THE
MATTER-THE ORDINANCE TO
BE STRICTLY ENFORCED.
Although there is no occasion for
alarm in regard to the smallpox In
this city at the present time, il
would be well for every citizen to
guard against the appearance of the
disease. Thus far there has been
but about Eve cases in the city, and
they are now convalscent.
The Board Of Health will endeavor
by every means to prevent its intro.
duction and spread in the city, and
in its endeavors it asks every citizen
to assist it.
For the benefit of physicians who
perhaps do not know what their
duties are in the matter, the follow
ing ordinance passed April Is, 1856,
10 published:
THE medical attendance in all
cases Of contagious diseases of epi-
demic or Asiatic cholera, shall re-
port in writing to the Board of
Health within six hours after being
called to visit such case or cases, oc-
curing between 6 O'Clock, a. IN. and
6 p. m, or within eighteen hours il
such call be made between 6 O'Clock,
p. m, and 6 a. m. Such report
shall state the name, sex, age color,
nation, residence and duration of
disease at the time OF report. The
said report or reports shall be filed
and recorded by the Clerk of the
Board of Health. II any medical
attendant shall fail to observe and
comply with the above regulations
he shall forfeit and pay a fine of five
dollars"
This ordinance will be strictly
enforced by the officers of the Board.
The physicians report must be strict
ly in compliance with the ordinance,
otherwise the Secretary OF the Board
will be unable TO keep a strict rec
ord of the cases, and the officers of
the Board will also be unable to
take any effective steps in the mat
ter. If physicians cannot comply
with such simple request they will
be made do so, otherwise suffer the
penaly laid down in the ordinance.

A CURIOUS CAUSE OF DEATH.
sr. LOUIS. January %.

Archibald Gibson, Second Lieuten-
ant United States Cavalry, son Of
Charles Gibson, q prominent lawyer
of this city, died at the residence Of
his father this morning. His death
was caused by inflammation of the
brain, believed to be the result Of cir
cumstances which occurred while he
was at West Point. One day while on
parade spider got into one OF his ears
By the rules he was not allowed to
raise his hand, and stood in the ranks
more than an hour, while the spider
worked Its way into the ear. When
dismissed his ear was full of blood,
ana the insect could not be removed
TO: two days. This caused corrosion
OF the bone next to the brain, and
gave him good deal of trouble.

they are satisfied that in some instances

THE COMMERCIAL" BLACRLEG
DEFINITIONS.
DEFINED BY CAP. SHINE.

DEFINED bh OhI. bHlNhs
What are blacklegs? Let scholars say;
Dig out your roots, give l.. fair play;
He's published wide his definitions
AS gospel truths'among those Greclans,
Who are degrading Meyersdale.
He says blacklegs themselves possess ;
Straight up, straight down, and nothing less
AS for straight up have my fears
Since L. built too much on piers,
Dcspising terra TRINA.
Straight down might do since degradation
Is the climax of their station;
LIS Plutocrstic osten,ation
Shall then srccumb to gravitation
Wheneer those piers oblique.
Possess themselves their manhood's gone
They'd now be thankful for bone;
They are too poor to think thought,
Hence for a smile are sold and bought,
More chesply than John Chinaman.
Go view thy work, chiefarchi' ect,
You'll doubtless gain some thin respect
Some blacklcg's wives shall thee disdain
As pseudo-friend and starched chicane;
"Facts are things that Wilma ding"
Blacklegs arc bold and never cringe,
Just like q door that needs n hinge;
They need some one to give them motion
Who will in turn exact devotion
To pay for anctioneering them.
Judas was blacklegger, too;
Bold and intrepid just like you
He strove to please high priests and Jews /;
Then sold himself, coat, pants and shoes
With all their appurtenances.
Judas, like others could name,
Was brought t, grief, + emorse and shame ;
Heserved his country, talked sweet to those
Who were progression's greatest foes,
Then ultimately suicided.
L. says they want one-hundred more;
Perhaps you'll teach them rule of four;
Your trcughs too small for what you own /;
Besides they're nearly skin and bone,
And fit for m0rtumoreans.
New, l.. don't fret and get half med,
Nor swear by kraut that I'm too bad;
Thy definitions you Should correct;
Then by degrees you'd gain respect
Among whtelegs and sober folks.
Thy innueT dos indicate
Disease of brain or crazy pate;
Blacklcgs, swear, are common trash,
Who feed on filth and meanest hash
And would rob Riggy at her trough.
Blacklegs are traitors everywhere;
Their presence putrefies the air;
Let Clearfield tell her tales of woe,
Then dare to say it was not so
BY usual eXaggeration.
Blackless are towards, mean and vile;
They use the kiss and Judas smile;
So wonder not why conscience chides;
Irvine the cause of suicides
The frequent ere~at of traitors.
