Tho After.Enects of tho Epidemic Rather
Grave.
Lisbon cable: The King Of Portugal
Is suffering from IN attack OF Influenza, aud
for q time 1t was thought the ceremony Of
proclaiming him King of Portugal would
have to DO postponed In consequence. The
epidemic was 20 serious among the soldisrs
In tho garrison here that the review pro-
posed Tor the 2Stn had to be omitted.
st. Petersburg cable: The Gear has
suffered severely from the prevailing epi.
demio Of influenza. He was too III to
attend the regular Christmas church SER
vice aud was also compelled to omit the
customary review Of tue parade Of the
guards. The Empress presided at the
luncheon given in the AnitchoR palace at
ter the military parade.
Paris cable: In consequence Of the
spread of tho Epidemic the hospitals are
crowded and the authorities HAYS been
compelled to make extraordinary provis.
ion Tor new patents. This has been done
by the erection Of q temporary pavilion In
the grounds OF tho Hospital Beaujon. In
tho school of the daughters OF members OF
the legion Of honor at st. D-nis, one.
third of the pupils are Ill and the school
has been closed.
Ir. Germain See read q paper on tho
in uenla Gefore the Academy Of Medicine
to-day. He thought the academy should
not encourage the opinion that the cpl.
dem;c was without gravity. He said that
the patients were cry apt to have pneu-
!, onia or bronchitis in fatal forms. DE-.
Dujordm Bsaumet disagreed with DIR.
See. He believed that the epidemic was
q form OF the den :us--e peculiar, erratic
epidemic fever, allied to the rheumatic
affections. He had observed that It pre-.
sented Two pha-os. first a nervous phase
aMi next o ca arrhal phase, aud that
there was sometimes an eruption "a sim
pie rash. The varieties In the disea-s
were due to tho p~redoninancs in Q case Of
any one OF these facts.
DIR. lochard suggested that tho rash
might perhaps not DO O part OF the disease.
but only a consequence Of the largo guam.
titles of arti-pyrino given to the patients.
All the speakers concurrel In the opinion
that tue disease is not harmless. and that
in case OF a relapse the arc
very serious.
Berlin cable: The public health au.
thorities report . great Increase In the
number OF cases OF induenza, with increase
In death rate. The fatal effects are pro.
duced by complications of pneumonia and

NORTH CAROLINA SUFFERING.
Great Dcstitution Reported On Account o.
Crop Failure.


NORTH CAROLINA SUFFERING.
Great Dcstitution Reported On Account OF
Crop Failure.
Tho farmers in the eastern portion of
North Carolina arc very badly situated this
winter. The cotton crop has proved almost
a tutal failure; the corn crop is very light,
aud no wheat worth speaking of was
tkreshed. The failure was due to contin-
ued rains during tho sumrner months
which kept the lands covered with water
80 much Of the time that TO raise a crop
was an utter impossibility. Reports sny
that the farmers in many instances are in
absolutely destitute cir umstances. For
some weekst tho question of cailinga special
session of the legislature to devise means
for their relief has been agitated. but
Gov. Fowle declinesto DO this, saying that
the sufferers must look out for themselves.
There are many poor farmers in the east
ern counties who ave largo families to
support, aud it is said they have sold most
Of their household effects TO buy bread aud
meat, aud now starvation st res them in
the face. Indeed, in many instances peo-
pie nre compelled to go from three to six
days without any sort # I. oi whatever.
Negro farm la,olers are leaving as fast as
they can get aw,y. The farmers do not
try to hold them, saying that they have no
Inducements to offer.
