1.-THE FEVER

JACKSON, Miss, Sept. 20.-No new
Cases Of yellow fever have appeared in
Jackson. j. Il. Manley, the only pa.
tlent, died to-day, and was hastily
buried near the spot where the man
Kilgore was buried. His companion,
who has been nursing him. was sent
north on the midnight train, and to-
morrow the infected building will be
thoroughly fuMigatcd.
The board OF health has adopted an
ordinance forbidding steamboats, and
all other water craft clearing from
New Orleans to land at any point in
Mississippi. This order will stop all
river traffic nOrthward until the ma
rlIe hospital service places inspectors
on all boats landing at Mississippi
points. DrS. Tackctt and Anderson,
employed by the government 10 the
Santiago hospitals. have rendered
their services by cable to the State in
case Of an epidemic. Three new cases
are reported at TaylUr's station. No
report from Orwo0d to-day.
The board Of health has ordered
that all articles of freight in first.
class be admitted to the State from
New Orleans under tue rules and reg.
ulations adopted at the Atlanta con-
%vcnti0n. y
NATCHEz, MISS, Sept. 20.-Natchez
aud the surrounding country Is begin
ming to draw their quarantine lines
tighter and tighter. Nothing from
New Orleans or any other infected or
suspected locality is permitted to en-.
ter here. The steamer John Howard
came up to-day from New Orleans but
was not permitted TO land. She was
permitted to land at Vidalia, oppo-
site Natchez, after "a long parley, and
put off a couple Of buggies, but no
one was allowed off the boat, except a
few Of the crew to land the freight.
and they we're not allowed to come in
contact with any Of the citizens.
Natchez has not had yellow fever
since 1871, and the health officials are
confident they viii tc able TO keep it

of quarantine measures.

Commenting on the proposition to
erect a monument in memory of ex-
Governor Humphreys, the Port Gibson
Reveille, says:
"Nothing to mark the grave save a
small wooden headboard almost Ind.
den by the tall grass. A visitor
could scarcely find the spot where this
soldier is buried. The wealth Of his
relatives, like that Of everyone Of the
south, was swept away by the civil
war and they are unable to place a
fitting monument to his memory. The
State owes this much, at least. to
n whose life was spent for his coun-
country. No State ever had a better
governor: no country Il Drawer soldier:
10 community Il truer man. We hope
the Legislature will take this matter
up at It's next regular session and APP
%pr0priate a sufficient amount OF mon
ey to place upon Governor Humphreys
grave IA lasting tribute to his memory.
