PENSACOLA,
Refugees Returning Leaving.

PENSACOLA, November 17.-No new
cases Of yellow fever were reported to the
Board of Health to-day. 1t is supposed
that the physicians have tacitly agreed to
suspend their reports, as several cases are
known to have occurred, all of which are
doing well. The trains resumed their
regular trips last night. Many of those
who fled from the fever have returned dur
ing the past twentY-four hours, fact which
causes some alarm. Judge Olin, of Angus
ia, Ca, who has made many friends by his
kind attentions to the sick during the ept-
demic. accompanied by Mr.. Taliaferro, and
Mrs. Reynolds, volunteer nurses of great
experience from the same place, left for
their homes last night. Most of the Mobile
nurses and several from New Orleans have
taken their departure.
DR.. Ross was called tonight to Molino TO
visit suspicious case reported at that place.
The weather is again warm. Thus far the
frosts have not perceptibly affected vegets-
tion. The steamer Mary Morgan arrived
this morning from Mobile and will return
tomorrow.

The Cotton Industry of Switzerland.

In the report Of the United States Consul
at Zurich, It is stated that Switzerland has
at present l, ,902, 600 cotton spindles in opera
tion, SIS against 2,O59, 600 ten years ago.
The disadvantages to the cotton industry
there are:
l. The entire absence OF the raw material,
not Of cotton only, but OF coal and iron.
2. Her continental position.
3. The fact that Swii zarland IS surround
ed by countries with high tariffs, while she
herself is free trade.
She used in 1881 a total OF 101, 600 bales,
worth about 1856, 200. Thus, while in
England, America, India, and elsewhere on
the continent, the number Of spindles has
increased, In Switzerland they have de-
creased. She possesses at present less than
8 per cent OF the cotton spindles OF the
world, On the other hand, tt is stated that
no other country, except England, has so
many spindles in proportion to population,
while the capital there in this industry Is
enormous in proportion to this population,
the estimate being that about SIS, ,OOO, 600 are
invested in spinning and weaving capital.
This is reckoning the spindles at Sl2 each,
and the looms Of which Switzerland
has nearly %, 600, at S240 each. Another
So, 600 600 is estimated as working capital
for these spindles and looms. Besides this
the money In all the dYeing, bleaching,
finishing and print establishments is very
considerable, and will doubtless bring this
sum up to a total of SJ0,000,0 600. Il is sig
nifcant, too, that 90 per cent. of these pro-
ducts are consumed az home, while In Eng
land the home consumption is represented
by Is per cent. The operations OF the Swiss
mills are regulated by factory law, limiting
hours Of work, compelling responsibility OF
employers for accidents, prohibiting employ
ment OF children except as regulated, etc.
The hours are usually eleven to twelve per

The annual production of iron in the
civilized world is 19. 500, 900 tons per annum.
England comes first among the nations with
her annual production of about 5000 ,OOC
tons year; and the United States and Ger.
many follow in succession. France occu
pies the fourth place with 100000 tons
and Spain produces least of all European
countries-only $4,000. But ERgland and
the United States absorb more than half OF
the entire production. The vitality Of ma
tional life may perhaps be justly estimated
according to the production OF iron.

With colored man, Ephraim Aston, to have
