From the Smallpox Region.

We learn, unoficially, through Deputy
Sheriff w. F. Gibbs, that there have been
no further deaths from smallpox, in the in
fected regions near Graveston and House
Mountain, 16 or Is miles from Knoxville,
since the last report, and no further spread
of the disease outside of the infected
families, all of which are closely and care
fully guarded Four cases are reported
in those families, according to
his information, Mrs. Clapp, wife
of VIM. P. Clapp, who died of the disease,
and her mother, Mrs. HARRISON; besides
two children in the Smith family
From L. W Kearns, Esq, we learn that
it was mistaken report about the death of
Joseph Smith, the young man who was
among the first to take the disease. He is
not dead, but is about well again. Conse-
quently there have been only four deaths
during the seige: VIM. P, Clapp, Nicholas
Smith and the two children of George Tin
de. 1t is confidently thought now, how
ever, that the disease is under full control,
and any further spread will be prevented,
We learn something further of the intro
duction of the disease in the neighborhood.
A man named Chesney, a former resident of
that locality, was returning from the west,
and stopped at George Tindle's, and
it seems he had come directly from a
pest house. While at Tindle's, daughter
of Tindle washed his clothes, and it was
she who took the disease, presumably from
washing his clothing, which had not been
changed. There was too much carelessness,
and from that it spread, although the girl
first taken is now well. Clapp, the Smiths
and others were at work for Tindle at the
time.

The United States Circuit Court, Hon.
John Baxter presiding, is now engaged in
the hearing of what is known as the Saul
case, involving the question of the burning
of the store house of S. L. Saul, jr., in Lou
don in 1880. The case was removed, by Pc
tition, from the Chancery to the United
States Court. The plaintiff is 81. b. Carhart,
surviving partner of Lewis d Carhart, as
signee, ETC., and he sues the insurance
companies which had policies on the goods,
the object being to recover the insurance
money. The companies set up as their
defense, and will attempt to prove, that
Saul set fire to his own house.
The plaintiff lis represented by Col. W.
A. Henderson, Capt. 81. II. Taylor and
Leon Jourolmon, while Messrs. T. s. Webb,
H. L. McClung, jr., s. 7. Logan, O.
E. Lucky and E. P. Mcqueen ap-
pear for the insurance companies. The
evidence is, to some extent, the same
that was adduced in the preliminary trial
before Justice King, at the time Of Sauls
first arrest, and is quite voluminous. A
large number of witnesses are in attend
ance, besides dispositions of others.

The UnfouBded Rumors and Scare.

In times like these it is almost impossible
to restrain and govern public opinion and
feeling. It will have its course In our
issue of Sunday it was stated that scare
had been created in the city by wild rumors
of case of small pox on Patton street,
East Knoxville, and the statement
was also made that Dr. NJ NJ
Alexander was sent by Mayor Staub to in
vestigate the matter, and he found it to be
a case of measles and nothing more. The
case was that of lady relative of Mrs
Frost, formerly Mrs. Garden, on Patton
street.
Notwithstanding these statements, there
are great many people-never satisfied
with anything-who refused to
take the evidence of the city physician,
who is one Of the best practitioners of the
city and various wild and unfouudeci
rumors prevalent about the city to the effect
that it was a case of small pox and that the
physicians and papers were trying to con-
ceal the facts from the people. Such is not
paid another visit yesterday afternoon,

pox is false in toto, for no other physician
has been near the place.
The city physician, who has a sworn duty

in concealing any case of small pox, and the

request of the defendants counsel, Esq
Yardley, they were allowed till Monday next

or judgment passed until that time.
