THE YEG.GOW DRAGON,
The South Justly Terrified at the
IOnSter,S RaVages.

JACKSONVILLE. September 1.-THE
official report to-day shows fifty-two new
cases and seven deaths. This does not
include the report of the medical bureau
of visiting physicians, which came in
just after the official list closed, and en-
braced fifty-four new cases, many of
which, however, were duplicated. Only
seven deaths were reported up to 6
O'Clock this evening, but it is certain that
there have been several others during
the past twentyfour hours. The irregu-
lrrity and want of system among the
physicians in making reports has rem
dered correct figures tonight impossible.
Quite q number of unacclimated nurses
have reached here from various places,
and it is expected that more than a
dozen, will be returned to Camp Perry
tomorrow. The weather is wet and un-
favorable.
SUSPICIOUS CASES.
ST.. LOUIS, September ia family OF
emigrants from Pensacola, Fla, consist
ing of Joel Davis, wife and two children,
and Mrs. Mclaughlin, have been taken
charge OF by the city health authorities
and sent to the city hospital, where they
were placed in an isolated ward. Mrs.
Mclaughlin is sick with fever, and her
jaundiced appearance is not inviting, al
though the city physicians say it is not
yellow fever.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, September 17.--It
is claimed by the officials of Wildwood
town nine miles from Chattanooga,
that yellow fever refugee from Deca.
tura, Ala, died there of the dread dis
ease. The State Board of Health has
been asked to investigate and will at once
send physicians for that purpose.
CHATTANOOGA, September 17.-That
the case of Wilson, reported as having
died from yellow fever at Wildwood, was
not one of yellow fever, was 80 proved by
thorough investigation.

THE WOMAN 4 LOVE.

She is sprightly little dame, and cross upon
occasion,
But then she frank and openis, and yields upon
persuasion.
She has jolly, pretty face, and sometimes she
admires it;
But she will sacrifice her looks If any need re-
quires it,
Her hands are small and / confess they are
most always lazy;
But they will press poor mans palm so warm
his eyes get hazy.
Her fingers, white and slender, do just nothing
for living
But spend her money in stream, one-half of
which is giving
Her voice can rise both loud and high in argu-
ment on reason;
But never breathes in gossip's cause one word
Of female treason.
She is so proud she will not wear a thing that's
not in fashion;
But to interiors is so kind to serve her is their
passion.
If any one speaks Ill of man or woman in her
hearing
A satire from her ready tongue will cure them
quite of sneering.
Her temper rises if she sees or hears of unjust
doing;
But if she be unjust herself she soon is pardon
sueing
She is exacting in her love, and very strict in
honor,
And must say this sense of right sits very well
upon her.
So true her soul is, and so pure, at times she
seems not human;
But, thank the stars her little faults proclaim
her still woman.
/ love her? Yes. with all my heart mean to
try and win her,
But know am not worthy such a saint-lil1e lit

She reads, approves, and, smiling, signs her
