SMALLPOX.

About 2 o'clock p. m, last Saturday, it was
reported to Mayor Lewis that q case of small
pox had arrived from Jacksonville During the
afternoon DIR. A. L. Randolph, after searching in
various portions of the city, found sick colored
woman in house east of the city and beyond
the corporate limits. The case was sufficiently
developed to be at once recognized as small pox
Steps were Immediately taken to prevent the
spreading of the disease. Nurses were hired
and guard placed at the building, with instruc
tons to let no one leave 1t and to allow none
but the physician to visit the place.
AS far as can be ascertained the woman Is a res
ident of LaVilla and left Jacksonville early last
week with the fever on her. When she arrived
at the Tallahassee depot she went to her fathers
house, where she still remains, afflicted with q
light case of smallpox.
At a meeting of the Board of Health Dr. Ran
dolph was requested to prepare and submit pa
per to the County Commissioners Monday morn
ing, reciting the facts and requesting them to
take action in the premises. The Commission
ers appointed committee to confer with com.
mittee from the City Council, and to cooperate
with them and the Board of Health in prompt
and decisive measures to prevent the spreading
of the disease in this community.
The Council meets ut 10 o'clock this morning
and to-day plans for the management of the
case and future action viii be definitely agreed
upon and pat into operation.
The policemen have already been instructed TO
be at the depot upon the arrival of trains from
the East, to inquire and examine % to the con-
dition of passengers on board, and No one who Is
sick is allowed to get of the train.
A number Of letters have been received here
urging the city authorities to establish q rigid
quarantine against Jacksonville sud other places
where the disease has been developed, but they
do not deem It advisable to DO 20 ct present
However, If other cases are allowed to leave in
tested places and come 70 Tallahassee, they may
be compelled to quarantine a. q measure of self
protection.
All the physicians are supplied with good
matter and vaccination ID progressing, and it is
hoped that everybody win avail themselves Of
this means Of protection against the disease Is
soon as possible. We learn that the physicians
have been instructed 70 vaccinate all who are
unable to pay for the service, and that vaccine
ton win be made compulsory II necessary.
Atpresent there h no apprehension among
the medical fraternity that the disease win
spread

SOME OPPOSITION CONSIDERED.

Some opposition to the establishment Of
postal telegraph has developed, on the
grounds: That it will create monopoly in
tho Government that it will be an un-
warrantable interference in private busi-
negs by Government, tending to lessen
huGan ambition and the investment of
capital in laudable enterprises lastly,
that it will involve TOO great an outlay of
Government funds. Let us examine these
points It has never been contended that
the Government should claim the exclusive
right to operate telegraph line for mes
sage carriage. On the contrary, Il is
essential that the Government in no wise
interfere with present or future lines, and
hence shoEld purchase nc lines whatever.
but build its own. The civil authority
that gives TIE right to the cszTisge Of letters
by the Government. says DR.. Hickok,
stands upon the ground OF necessity for
public freedom. Il letter carrying were
left to private enterprise, it would be Civ.
ing vast and dangerous power into pri.
Fate hands without any guaranty against
abRses. When the people are forced to use
pyixase lines exclusively for Transmission of
intelligence, they are driven to placs them
selves in the power of private corpora.
tiOn. Time has SO justified the wisdom of
the Government in controlling letter carry
ing, that at this day no man is found to
suggest that it be abandoned. But, as the
Chicago Tribune sersely remarks, Govern
ment carriage of messages will no more
extinguish private telegraphy than has
Government carriage OF parcels extin-
guished like business by express. The
electric telegraph does not belong to any
corporation. It is the bequest of science
to the world. Il is one of the avenues Of
and 80 such is public high
way oves which the Government may. if 1t
chooses, traasmit izs mails instead of over
water or rail- routes. The only difference
is one Of methods employed TO given end.
