This includes the variations in types, the methods of treatment, the percentage of mortality with the atmospheric and meteorological con ditions. When all this matter has been col tested and digested there must result a con clusion that will enable the profession here. a"ter to cope with a disease that i) far has defeated all its scientific skill and experience.

In yesterday's i-sue of your paper, an article appeared from 'he pen of John II. Morton, M. 1)., in which he says that not a single minister of the gos pel remained at Hickman during the plague, and appeals for some to go and comfort the sick and dying. I do not know what Dr. Morton means by a minister of the gospel, ut I do know that a Catholic priest, Father .1. F. Walsh, left here as Boon as he heard of the plague at Hickman, and, the trains being stopped, he rode all night on horseback to iret there. He has been there all the time since. He is there now, and will remain until the plague is over. If he falls a victim at his post of duty, there are others to take his place. In letters received from Father Walsh he says he has been at times four hours without intermission by the bedsides of the nick nnd dying. I write this in justice to Father Walsh, because when he was doing his duty at Hickman, a report was industri ously circulated that there was no priest there. I suppose the quiet, unobstrusive character of Father Walsh has not given him prominence sufficient to be noticed by the would-be lions of the day. But let them look around and they will find him going around quietly doing good. p. t. mkagher. JscksoD, Miss. Jackson, September 26 The Clarion of yesterday thus notices tho death of Colonel Kinloch Falconer, secretary of state, which occurred at Holly Springs a few days before. The Clarion says: "It is hard to realize that these hard words have to be written. Two weeks ago Colonel Falconer left us in good health to attend a sick father at his heme in Holly Springs. He reached the bedside of his parent barely in time to bid him a last adieu. Soon his brother, the gentle, gener ous and brave Howard Falconer, was taken ill with the prevailing disease and was called Ko his last account. The angel ot death next this notice for a victim, and he, too, has been struck down with the robes of a high office upon him, in the meridian of life and the bloom of his useful manhood. Again has Mississippi been called to weep at the trrave of one of her best and truest ms. Ir be a pleasing thought to his fii' mis Hi, a in the trying scenes of the last day j cr I is I d'-, he was resigned to tho will of bis Heav?cly Father, whose mercy "i l goodness disrobe even the pestilence fi '. terrors. In a letter written to a friend 11 city on the seven teenth instant, two das before he was seized with the illness that terminated hie life, he thus, as if anticipating the fatal results, ex pressed the christian's faith: Oh! the scenes her are beyond human power to describe.

He was a grocery keeper at Central Point, and con tracted the disease in going to and from Memphis. I am sorry to say that his physi cian. Dr. W. S. Malone. could induce no one to goto the assistance of the deceased, though money was freely offered. On September 25th, your correspondent removed Miss Lot tie Miller from Memphis to this place. She had been convalescing from an attack of yellow-fever for some time, but the trip out here was almost too much for her strength. She was taken with remittent fever, but we have succeeded in breaking that up also, and she will bo up in a few days. Mr. Tobe Ber lin, a convalescent, came cut yesterday, to remain until restored fully. No fever here yet. No quarantine regulations. All are welcome. james h. malone. nial and accommodating assistant, Mr. E. Coleman, volunteer operator from Louisville. The only visitor we have now is 'Dr." John J. Duffy. We have no doctors in the vi cinity, and we hail his visits nightand morn ing with pleasure. Speaking of doctors, one of the local physicians of this neighborhood was called on a few days ago to visit a refu gee's temporary homp; where there was three sick, but refused on the plea that he was too busy. Ten minutes afterward he bad time to Sit in his buggy and converse for half an hour with some friends. This is only one of the many instances that I could mention. In conclusion. I desire to retrrn thanks to the Iiowaru association and their noble repr esentative, Mr. Duffy. H. L. j, Complete Ieatn Ho II of Grenada.
