THE SMALLPOX.
The Situation Here and in Other Parts
OF the Country.

Since our last report, three new
cases of small pox have broken out in
the family Of Aarou Danner. Mrs.
Lowrance, whu waited on her hus,
band, was taken last Sunday. On last
Saturday Emma Hall, who has been
nursing at the pest house, was taken
with varioloid. On last Monday Mack
Mccoy, after having been sick a day
or two, broke out with it.. Quite a
number of black people had visited
him. These were promptly isolated,
and Mack sent to the pest house.
This makes in all, since our last issue,
SIX new cases. Only one of these was
taken in town the balance being in
the country. All the cases are doing
as we'll as could be expected under
the circumstances.
DIR. Jake Bledsoe has been appoint.
ed health officer, and it is made his
duty to visit every family in town
and see that they have been vaccina-
ted and vaccinate allsthat have not
been successfully vaccinated. The
Board of Mayor and Aldermen make
it misdemeanor for any one to re.
fuse.
We do not think there is danger in
coming to town. About every body in
town has been vaccinated and the dis
ease cannot spread great deal more.
Our Board Of Health are doing their
best to crush it out.
Large numbers Of vases are devel-
oping daily in New York, Richmond,
Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Chicago and
the small towns all over the north.
1t seems to be rapidly spreading all
over the country.
EIt is said that In 1927 an endemic
OF smallpox prevailed in Philadelphia, |
and that out of $4,000 persons who
were vaccinated, but one was known |
to have died with the dreaded disease. |
One case of smallpox and one of
varioloid have developed in Mem.
phis and vaccination has become cpl
demic.

Dyersburg expects to be visited by

The Northwestern railroad this side
OF Johnsonville is under water, and
we would not be surprised if trains
should stop running by to-day.
We learn that about fifty miles of
track is under water between here

run through for several days. Be-
tween here and Cairo the track is all
right.
The City Council of Clarksville
has compromised its back taxes with
the Louisville q Nashville Railroad
for Sl,72O. The Leaf says it was

the attorneys fees would probably
have swallowed up the principle.

N. Y. Herald: There must be an
unusual amount either of ignorance
or prejudice in the parts of the coun-
try where the smallpox is spreading;
otherwise vaccination would have
been resorted to by every one at the
first approach of the disease. The op.
GRAFTON seems so trifling, so easy to
perform at any time, that it is Just
the sort of thing that every one puts
Off until a more convenient season;
but this is the wrong year for careless
ness in this particular respect. Ev~
eryone should be vaccinated, and at
once.

SIR JOHN LUBBOCK, in his address be-
fore the British Association, says that our
earth is but small fragment out of u.s.
100000 worlds, besides countless others
which are invisible to us from their great
er distance, smaller size, or feebler light,
and these facts render more forcible the
comparison of great numbers to the stars.

CHE STRENGTH OF SIN."-A sermon
on this subject, preached by Rev. DR.. T.
A. Hoyt, is published in the american
Nashville, Tenn, of January %. The dis
course concludes with the following preg-
nant remarks:
The law is not applied with power to the con-
science hence there are not thorough and radi-
cal convictions of sin, or deep persuasions of the
preciousness of grace.
The superficial piety of the present day is ow
ing, in large degree, to feeble impressions of
the malignity of sin That complete breaking
up of the fallow ground of the heart, that groan9
ing under bondage, that deep sense of weakness
and nothingness which characterized the expe-
rence OF the past generation, are unsuited to the
haste and hustle of this stirring age.
The transition from absolute indifference to
cordial reliance on Christ must now be made in
an instant. One gush of sorrow, one leap of
JOY, and the work must be done. Such converts
can know little of the law, little of Christ and
less OF themselves. Men must be soundly in
structed by Moses if they would know the sweet
ness Of the liberty in Christ"
The central Presbyterian. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1856-1908, 1882-02-01

The Louisville Courier Journal of last
week contains an extended report of a
very interesting lecture delivered before
the Polytechnic Society, in that city, by
the Rev. DR.. ]. W. Pratt, on the Rosetta
Stone. A great crowd, says the Courier
Journal, attended, and hundreds were
turned away. The interest was height
ened by having present a fac 8im.ile of
the original inscription, and colored do
ramic views of Egypt. The lecture is a
lucid account of the hieroglyphic system
OF writing, and of the manner in which
Champollion the Younger read the riddle
of the Rosetta Stone.
