C We learn from Dr. Henry Stone, of Mississippi, who visited Wilmington to ofler his professional aid to the citizens, and who has recent advices from the city, that the number of cases. of fever is decidedlv on the decrease. There are fifteen-or sixteen pbysi ciaui now on duty there ; seven from Charleston, one Naval surgeon, and eight of the town practitioners, who have been down and recovered. Dr. E. A. An- derson is just up from an attack. r In addition, a large hospital has been opened, where a large number of the pcxrer classes are accommodated, thereby diminish ing the number of out-door patients, and the labor of the physicians in a .t proportionate degree. Few new cases are occurring,' probably j owing to the want of material, and large numbers of those on hand are re covering. - The people of Petersburg, Richmond, and the surrounding country, responded most liberally. 10 the calf for provisions, and relieved the distress that at one time prevailed, for there was actual starvation staring them in the face. After War and Pestilence had done their work, but littles1 would have been left for the third sister to do. ; ' . Tlie deaths on the 21st numbered 15. It , will neV-, er be accurately known hovr mauy have did, as the disease had prevailed several weeks before it was pronounced yellow fever, and afterwards, even, the physicians made no official reports of deaths. The number can only be approximated by reference to the records of the places of interment. , Qiiring his stay jthere it was impossible to procure labor enough V give the bodies a decent burial, and mSnjr remain ed uiji buried, all night, ex posed to the winds of Heav en, ft was the case in Richmond at oh6 tlme wljen the military "hospitals were crowded, neither graVe diggers or coffins could be had In! epidemics,' generally, it has been remarked that, while the oiitwairdl manifestations of severity may be the s-iroe' in all their stages, yet the rkortality is great erd u ring the first few weeks and towards their ter mination. This is; strikinglyttlve case with yellow fevers The disease will be arrested only by a heavy black frost, -cold weather always aggravating individ nal cases, probably on account of the difficulty in feg llatihg the temperature of the sick chamber and con- sequettanger f reJapsi. The total number of cases treated, soar will pro bably reach 2,200, of which at least 400 have died, giving a mortality of a little over 20 per dht.; quite small compared with that of. the Norfolk epidemic 'of 1855, when jfifty-fbur died in every hundred. . Injconnectiou witti vthis epidemic, it is singular to notic that for many years back there have been forty or fifty turpentine distillerieain operation onstantlyj whereas this . summer they were all discontinued.- The disease had not' Appeared there, for forty years.
