No Yellow Fever in New Orleans.
Rot only New Orleans, but the
States adjacent threat were greatly
agitated over the action of the Texas
authorities establishing a quaran
tine agawj that city on account of
rumorecsvlow lever therein. The
authorities of the city, as appears in
the Picayune of the 18th. declare no
case of fever has existed there, this
season. Unon this assurance the
quarantine was raised, but not until
great damage" had been done. The
rumor" grew until by the time it
reached New York there were 1000
cases in New Orleans. Railroads
running into Texas refused to receive
freightsajad in many ways were the
peopletjJLrrassed by the cruelly
false rumor. It is a great pity the
inconsiderate fools who thus injure
the interests of a community cannot
be "shut up" in one way or another.
Rev. Jas. H. Morrison
Is announced to preach at the
Presbyterian church on Sunday even
ing next. The occasion will be spe

end gentleman is a son of Buncombe
who hag gone forth to the sacred
ministry, and in Louisville, Ky., has
risen to a position of large influence.
He is a son of the late Rev. W. N.
Morrison, and a brother of Theo. S.
Morrison, Esq. After nearly ten
years of unremitting labor, he has
returned to his native heath for a
brief season of rest. Meantime two
large and flourishing chniches have
been built up in Louisville under his
ministry and his prsaching attracts,
there as elsewhere, by its fervor and
spirituality. There is no higher honor
for onr community than to own as
her sons, men engaged in the work of
the christian ministry.

were not so uncharitable as ihey ap
peared to be on Thursday, when
only thirty dollars' was subscribed
by them, but their action' yesterday
has removed whatever doubt there
might have been in our mind, re
garding their lack of true christian
charity, in this particular instance.
Four hundred dollars in one day is
a very respectable sum indeed, and
we hope that twice that . amount
will be raised to-day. ' There are
ten thousand inhabitants in Ashe
ville, and if each one olt these wi 1
give only thirty cents, we will send
to Jacksonville three thousand dol
lars. . This amount represents pre
cisely the add that Asheville is
able to give, and .should give to
tho6ei who by God. visitations, are
inJ,b-very throes of death and
starvation . Th ere is no good reason
why. Asheville' should not help
Jacksonville to this extent, and we
are free to confess, that in our opin
ion, had Asheville beep afflicted as
Jacksonville has been and is now,
the latter city would not have been
negligent in helping to alleviate and
eradicate her misfortunes. The peo
ple of Asheville should think of this
matter; we have no right to feel m re
exempt from the direful visitations
of Providence than any other city,
and who can foresee that Asheville
will always be prosperous and free
from those circumstances which leave
desolation and destruction in their
wake? Active amonr the workers
in the city yesterday, were Messrs.
J. A. Porter, J. A. Conant and - J.
Taylor Amiss. These gentlemen, too
gether, secured about four hundred
dollars, and the contributions sent
to Mayor Harkms swelled the
amount to . four hundred : and
twenty three dollars ($423). This
amounts will be sent to Jacksonville
at once and other donations will
follow as soon as collected. Now,
let every citizen, man. woman and
child, white or black; donate some
thing to the fever fund. If it is only
a dime or a quarter, it will do the
stricken people ot Florida much
good, and we will never miss it
Qvoe something. Add your mite to
the humane cause, and do it at
once. We shall expect Asheville to
behave handsomely in this matter,
after all, and if it does not do so, we
shall be most grievously disap
pointed in our estimation or the
chanty of our people.

follows:

afflicting circumstances occasioning
an invitation of our town authorities
communinated through the proper
authorities to a limited number of the
pent-up citizens of Jacksonville,
Fla , te escape for their lives to this
mountain town, with the assurance of
safety .to themselves and immunity
on the part of our citizens from- all
evil effect, we beg leave to state . for
the information of the public gener
ally with the hope of correcting er
roneous impressions that on the morn
ing of the 13th inst, 269 refugees
arrived in our town. Five of them
were taken sick on the train en route
from Jacksonville and five cases were
developed the day of arrival here.
Of that number . two have died, and
two dismissed as well; four convalesa
cent; two progressing favorably.
There have been no new eases de
veloped since the day of their arri
val, now nine days since they left
Jacksonville.

' ! Clay on the tariff. ( ,
The j.Nashville s Demociat , of a
recent, date contains an extiact
from a letter of Henry Clay, written
in September, 1843. It was ad
dressed to S. F. Bronson, of Geor
gia, and gives, in brief, Mr. Clay's
views on the tariff. The extract is
as fullcvs;
'"The aum and substance of what
1 conceive to be the true policy of
th United States, in respect to a
uruT, may be nnefly stated. In con
foimity svitb the principle announc
ed in lh compromise act, I think
that whatever revenue is necessary
to en irconomical and honest ad
ministration of the general govern
ment ought to be derived from the
duties imposed on foreign imports,
and discrimination ought to te
fnade "as will incidentally ! afford
rea8onablrrotectlruv.lfoMr aatvon
al interests. I think there is no
danger of a high tariff being ever
established; that of 1S2S was em
inently deserving that denomina
tion. I was not in Congress when
it passed and did not vote for it;
but with its history, and with the
circumstances which gave birth to
it, I am well acquainted. They
were highly discreditable to Ameri
can legislation, and I hope, for its
honor, will never be again repeated.
After my return to Congress in
tSi, my efforts were, directed to
the modification and reduction of
the rates of duty contained the act
in the act of 1828. The act ot 1S32
greatly reduced and modified them;
and the act of 1833, commonly,
called the compromise act, still fur
ther reduced and modified , them.
The act which passed at the extra
session of 1841, which I supported
was confined to the free articles.' I
bad resigned my seat in the Senate
when the act ot 1842 was , passed.
Generally the duties ' which it im
poses are lower than those in the
act of 1832. And without intend
ing to express any opinion upon
every item of this last tariff, I would
say that I think the provisions, in
the main, are wise and proper. If
there be any excesses ore defects
in it (ot which I have not the
means here of judging), they ought
to be corrected. - My opinion, that
there is no danger hereafer of a
high tariff, is found on the gratia
fying fact that our manufactures
have now taken a deep root. In
their infancy they needed a greater J
measure ot protection; but as they
grew and advanced they acquired
less protection. Even now -some
branches ot them are able to main
tain in distant . markets successful
competition with! rivaPQ foreign
manufactures.
