YELLOW FEVER PLAGUE IN AMERICA.

'-HARROWING SCJ-_N.ES. The reports from the fever-stricken districts of the United States are of the most harroAving kind, as sheAA'n by the folloAving j telegrams :— .. • -~- ; .Memphis,' '(Term.), August 29th.—The carnival of death continues Avithout abate ment. From 6 p.m. yesterday till noon to-day . the interments number fifty. -".Father. Walsh, of St. Bridjget's, and Father ■ McGarvey; of St. Peter's, are dead; also H. H. Ardin, merchant. W. C. Woodruff *is reported iv a dying condition. NeAV cases from 6 p.m. yesterday to noon, sixtyi .. At the Board of Health meeting this morning Dr. LaAvrence reported a fearful condition of affairs . among the coloured people. In soms localities they are croAvded . together in narrow, filthy quarters,, and are an easy prey to disease and death. Hun dreds of them have been sick for days without medical attendance.

SHOCKING CONDITION OF THE NEGROES. The fever continues to spread amongst the negroes, AA'hble families being prostrated ; but it is hoped with the late additions to the medical corps they Avill henceforth receive better attention. In front of tbe Commis sary depot of the Citizens' Relief Commit tee to-day fully 1,000 negroes assembled. Amongst the neAV cases reported this even ing are Fathers Linemara and Riordeon, of St. Patrick's Church. Father Erasmus, Order San Franciscans, is dead.

DYINC. UNATTENDED IN HOUSES. The attention of the Health Officer has been called to the Whittemore House, in Avhich live deaths have occurred. One woman, Avho died at midnight on Friday, still lies in the house. An unknown man, sick in the back room, was not heard from for several days. This evening a physician visited the house, broke into the room of the sick man, and found his remains abandoned in bed, a dirty sheet throAvn over the face, aud the bed spattered with black vomit. The Sanitary Police have been instructed to break into houses Avhere they have reason to believe there are un attended sick or dead persons. The clouds of Avoe over our city slioav no signs of break ing. Physicians, nurses, visitors, druggists, and undertakers are becoming exhausted by constant Avorking. Dr. Wise, an active young physician, Avas stricken down this morning. At Camp Joe Williams four or five deaths occur daily. The hospital con tains about twenty-five such, and the Avorst is feared for the people liA'ing in tents. Some have become frightened, and _ have returned to their homes in the infected district ia the city. Memphis (Term.), Aug. 2Stb.—The negroes this morning became clamorous for rations. About I,ooo—men, women, and children—surrounded the commissary depot, and it Avas found necessary to station a guard fromjthe coloured military company to keep back the crowd. Numbers are still leaving the city, aided by the Citizens' Committee. The Howards this morning opened Market-street public fschool build ing as an infirmary, or " Howard Home for the Reception of Pauper Sick." They have also established medical corps of ten physicians under direction of Dr R. W. Mitchell. -

NeAV Orleans, August 2Sth.— NeAV cases, 220 ; deaths, 57. The HoAvard Association relief list is gradually increasing. New applications number about 125 daily. The Young Men's Christian Association have 100 patients on their relief list. Seven hundred cases of fever have occurred at Vicksburg. Memphis, August 31. —Official records to-day exhibit 14S neAV casesfor the 24 hours ending at six p.m., and 77 deaths for the same period. Volunteer physicians con tinue to arrive. Dr. Easley was accom panied by a, corps of 30 nurses. Among the most recent cases of yelloAv fever are : H. S. Landrum, city editor of the Avalanche; and P. R. Athy, Chief of Police. R. A. Thompson, Postmaster, is also doAA'n, but is doing Avell. Joseph Russell, Superinten dent of Odd Fellows'nurses, died andAvas buried to-day. Druggists are Avorked down, and there is urgent need of prescription clerks of experience, and who have had the fever. HoAvard Hayman, druggist, died to-day, aud J.S. Robinson, one of the princi pal druggists, closed his establishment to day and left the city to get a rest.

CHILDREN APPEALING FOR HELP. NeAV Orleans, September I.—NeAV cases of yellow fever, 260 ; deaths, SS. The weather is cloudy and warm to-day, Avith a light shower this afternoon. C. E. Whitney, one of the committee, reports 23 cases in his district, and relates an incident that occurred at the corner of Race and St. Thomas street, in the upper part of the First District, Avhich seems to show the rapid spread of tbe fever in that locality. As_ he approached this corner he saw six or eight little children standingthere. They appeared to recognise him as one of the H-Avard As sociation, and each appealed to him to go with them to then- respective homes to see the sick. He Avent first to the nearest house pointed out, followed by the little ones; then to the next, the procession getting one less at each house, until every appeal had been answered. Though the present situa tion is sad, the general impression seems to be that the worst has yet to come.

HIBERNIANS APPEAL FOR AID. The Ancient Order of Hibernians make an appeal to similar organisations through out the United States for assistance. They say the yellow fever is thinning their ranks. The distress is fearful, and their resources are exhausted, and they appeal in God's name for assistance to alleviate tbe suffer ings of their afflicted brethren. Ibe Lusi tarian Portuguese Benevolent Association and ,the German Benevolent Association each makes a similar appeal to its respective organisations, throughout the Union for assistance. ;

THE SURGEON-GENERAL'S REPORT. /Washington, August 31.—The official report of the Surgeon-General of the Marine Hospital Service for last Aveek Avas corh ,pl<?ted;;at 2 o'clock, and shoAvs amelan!r .choly.death-roll for the Aveek. In Nevr Orleans to date there have been a total of 2,877 cases and 867 deaths ; at Vicksburg there are noAV 800 cases, half of which have 'occurred in the last week, and 60 more in the last tAventy-four hours. Deaths from refugees have occurred in many towns all over the States, including New York; Stringent quarantine arrangements are being enforced. j

ANOTHER HEAVY DEATH RATE. j Memphis, September 1.- NeAV cases re ported to-day, 104; deaths from yelloAv fellow, 76. Undertakers are pressed to bury the dead, and at EltmA'Ood to-day dozens of coffined dead were lying on top of the ground waiting for interment, it being a difficult matter to procure even coloured gravediggers. SUBSCRIPTIONS. i. -! Subscriptions are pouring in liberally from aU parts of the States.

THE ASPHALT CONTRACT.

<To the Editor of the Evening Star.) I Sm,—l was very much surprised at the state ment made by Mr Morrison relative to the above contract. He admits that the price is 9d per yard less than the former contract, which, upon the quantity contracted for. would make the saving of £3,750 alluded to. If I understand the drift of Mr Morrision's letter, it is this : that the asphalt now being- laid is inferior to that previously laid. If this is so, all that I can say is that I was not aware of it. There is one thing which seems strange to me in the matter. It is this: if the present price is better than the late one—on which occasion Mr Morrison informs us he was lower than Messrs Knight, Craw and Coi, —that he should in this last large contract have been so much higher than the present con tractors, Mr. Morrison's price being 2s 9d per yard, or £1,250 on the whole contract more than Messrs Knight, Craw and Co y so that if he could have done the work, and did actually offer to'do it at less than 3s 3d per yard; this contract, according to his own shewing, being a better one at 2s 6d per yard, why did he tender at 2s 9d ? How he can.reconcile these thing§.l cannot imagine.—Yours, D. Goldie.

The Wife Murder at Otago.

- /; () j■» h [BY ,TELEGRAPH.; 3 f

(From Our .QwnT Correspondent..)

■'.:: DUNEDIN. this day. The inquiry coridutfted-'at Fortro3e*o_t Friday by Mr McCullokh, as coroner'for thfe district; touching the death of Mrs Welsh, lasted, nearly five hours. Several,witnesses gave evidence as to the the finding of the body. The Doctor, who made the post-mortem examination, deposed that the throat had tAvo cuts, one of. theni severing all the principal blood-vessels, and going three-quarters of an,inch through the Avind-pipe. The edges of the wounu were irregular, but sharply defined. The smaller wound was about tAvo inches long, merely severing the skingand a few muscular fibres. There Avas a wound on the right hand about three-quarters of an inch long, and one about an inch and a quarter long on the left hand. On the left foot there was a slight wound over the second toe. He found no bruises on the body except four abrasions on the neck. He did not think the wounds could have been self-inflicted from their direction. Inspector Fox deposed that on Wednesday night, the Sth inst., at 10.10. he arrested the prisoner, James Welsh, in the Waikawa bush, about three-quarters of a mile beyond Mcßae's station. witness was in uniform, and <told him who he was. He I cautioned him, and then charged him with the : murder of his wife on the previous Sunday _at Mr Mcßae's house, Waikawa. Welsh replied slowly and deliberately "Yes," and he did not deny the charge. Prisoner, while being searched, said "'l've got no money; she tool all my money, and then turned round on me; she spent it on one thing and another, and I don't know AA'here it has gone to,'' He also said that he was glad they had found him m_the bush, and that it was a shame to have kept him in it. Witness could see that his hands Avere well marked. There was blood on his right temple, and scratches and blood on his nose and near his eye.. Witness found blood stains also on his clothes and on his hat. In the right hand vest pocket, out of which he had taken the pocket-knife produced, witness found distinct blood marks on opening the blade of the pocket knife. He could clearly see marks of blood on the inside of the handle. The jury returned a verdict to the effect, " That James Walsh, on the 15th September, 1878, at WaikaAva, wilfully murdered his wife, Louisa Richardson, Avith malice aforethought, and that after he com mitted the murder he fled from the same. The room in which tho murder took place pre sented signs of a fearful struggle. Pools of blood were everyAvhere, andinthem AA*ero hand fuls of the man's beard. The woman's body was bruised as from kicking or struggling, and was marked from the middle dowmvnrds. Mrs Welsh was interred at Eortrcse on Saturday. Her family are on tho way but from home.

PROPOSED VOLUNTEER REVIEW.

The officers and members of the Auckland Volunteers attended last evening at the Drill Shed, for the purpose of considering tbe proposed review on the Prince of Wales' Birthday, in November; Major Derrom occupied the chair, and introduced the subiect, and said that he understood that there was to be a demonstration of the different Benefit Societies on Saturday, the 9th of November, Avhich he thought would interfere Avith the reA'iew, if held on the same day. The question had been raised as to whether the revieAv had not better be held on the following Monday, the 11th. After consider able discussion, in which Lieut. Connolly and the Maior. took the leading part, Lieutenant Robinson moved and Major Morrow seconded pro forma, "That a Volunteer review be held on Monday, the 11th of November, in commemora tion of the Prince of Wales' Birthday." Corporal McEvoy moved, as an amendment, "That there be no review," which was seconded by Private Johnson. Color-Sergeant Self spoke at some lengtb, and advised that the officers of Com panies should attend the meeting of delegates of Friendly Societies to see if some arrange ment could be made, in order that the Volunteers might co-operate in increasing the funds of Charitable Institutions. He would move. " That the officers commanding companies be requested to attend the next meeting of the delegates of the Ifriendly Societies, to see if the Volunteer force can assist them in any way to augment the funds by a review; if so, that a review be held : and that they also be requested to ask Maior Withers to call a church parade of the force, with the understanding that a collection Avill be made at the close of the service; the funds thus raised to be handed over to the treasurer of the Friendly Societies to augment the funds raised for the charitable institutions of Auckland."—On the suggestion of Major Derrom, the previous motion and amend ment were withdrawn. Some further remarks were made,: and Mr Selfs motion divided; the firstjpart was abandoned ,and the second part, re lating to the church parade, Avas carried.—Mr McEvoy repeated his motion, 'That there be no review," which Avas carried.

OHUKCH PARADES. The arrangement of monthly inspections and Aveekly parades Avas left for decision to the officers of the companies. READING-ROOM. The question of a reading room for the volun teers Avas again brought up. Maior Derrom read a few jottings from hi^ note book as to the library. A reading-room Sfor volunteers was a means of developing those sociable feelings which folloAV facilities of intercourse between persons of different ideas and good-Avill. By mixing together in tho reading room, a feehng of respect and friendliness Avill spring up, Avhich never existed before. A combination of interests and sympathies will be fo.tered and extended, Avhicn must materially contribute to the advantage of everyone. Practically, it will be one of the best means of making us useful and Aviso at the same time. Indeed, it might be classed amongst scholastic institutions, because it will, to a certain extent, be a veritable night school on an enlarged scale, where useful know ledge of particular and various kinds will be conveyed to a large number of young men, Avhich they could not possibly obtain at any single institution. It was resolved to carry the idea into practice, to canvas and paper the room, providing: the necessary furniture, each member contributing towards the expense.

KIFLK ASSOCIATION. The Chairman read the correspondence on the subiecc, and respecting the support to be given by Auckland members, there Avas a difference of opinion. The motion of the previous meeting was finally agreed to, " That the expenses ot threo representatives be defrayed to the annual meetings," and a vote of thanks to the Chairman closed the meeting.

A YOUNG COLONLAL'S LAMENT.

jsbljL is iair ana Kina, Her bright blue eyes are killing; But tho' to her inchned. The maiden is too Avilling. She waits not to be wooed, : And tho' I fain would woo her, 'Tis I am the pursued, And she is the pursuer. . - She makes one stand on guard, So plain her aim to capture; Too ready to reward A little love with rapture. Why Avill girls be so bold? Our grandmamas Avere modest, And were, or seemed so, cold, They charmed the gravest, oddest. No romping then allowed, The maids were coy and simple; And a fellow felt quite proud To make a soft cheek dimple. No slang, no equivoque, ' No girl was " awfully jolly;" But there I _1 have a smoke, .•.'." i I'm feeling melancholy. " •' G.C.A. /. Auckland, Sept. 16th, 1878.

Extbaobdinaey Cube of an Auckland Omnibus Driver, 21 years resident, of Long-standing Rheumatism. Auckland.jAugust 20,1878. Dear Sir,—l had isufferedlgseverely and most acutely from Rheumatism for many years, brought on, I believe, from exposure to all weathers in the exercise of my calling. For years I could not sleep at night, and vra« unable to lie except in one position. Day atid night I was full of excruciating pains, scarcely able to move about at all, and as a natural B_querce, my general health was also materially imured. I believe I suffered the pangs of Rheumatism, and its attendant evils, in every shape and form, and my life was almost a burden to me- I tried every remedy I could hear of, but without ob taining any reliof whatever. The sum I spent in medicine and medical advice was very con siderable, but of no avail, until I invested in a bottle of your Blood Restorer. I confess that I was not hopeful at all when I pur chased your medicine, I had tried so many specifics without receiving the slighest benefit, but having determined to give it a fair trial, I carried out my intention. I adhered strictly to the directions, and the result is that I am changed from a mere wreck to my former self again—restored to health and vigour, and able to drive daily through all weathers, and at all hours, if occasion requires. I am sure you have never had a worso case to deal with than mine, and although ev»n now, in bad weather, I feel my limbs rather stiff, after sitting on the box for a leng time, I am a living example of the almost miraculous curative properties (under Providence) of your now celebrated Blood Restorer. My friends tell me it is a duty I owe to my fellow creatures tosendyou this acknowledgement, and if it is the means of persuading other Bufferers to go and do likewise, I shall feel that this letter is not written in vain. 1 have the more pleasure in giving this testimonial as it ii quite un solicited on your part. You are at liberty, of course, to make any u..e of this.—l am, sir, ypurs gratefully, Henry Maiden*. To H. E. Hitchens, E?q., Auckland. TMPERIAL SCHIEDAM SCHNAPPS De. Hassall's Report. The Analytical and Sanitary Institution, 51, Holborn Viaduct, 8.C., London, 9th May, 1877. Report on a Sample of Imperial Schiedam Sch napps, received from Mr. H. J. Habt. Wo have subjected a sample of the above name', article to a very careful chemical analysis and examination. The results of the analysis, which are set forth in a separate report, show that this spirit is of good strength, practically free from acidity, and that it contains but traces of solid matter in solution. It possesses a delicate and agreeable aroma,"and a pure and n_U& taste. Mr. Hart's Schiedam Schnapps is a vejy superior article of its' class, is well purified, and quite genuine. (Signed) Abthub H.

' _ It has a pure fragrant odour, and is absolutely ) free from any trace of fnsil or Other injurious impurity, and has evidently been distilled from superior rye : grain, always used instead of malt m the production of the choicest qualities of Schnapps. It is very smooth to the palate, and in this respect compares favourably with other samples offered for sale. It may be advised as equally suitable for medical or economic pur poses.
