Cycles of those intermittent waves find, an easy access to remote places, lofty ranges where the nature of the :? soil is siuitable for their reception ; -where there is an electa magnetic attraction that draws from the dis tant; valleyfrom the ague district a pois onous product. In accomplishing this the hearthstone of the virus is more ii frequently healthier than localities miles away. I The bayous of Louisiana are said to be ex empt from malaria! The experience of the late civil war in that region argues a differ ent conclusion.1 Supposing however that they are. May not some local agent act as a neutralizer. The noh presence of malaria is' hardly tenable. The JiUtiena igrandiJUorai a plant flaggingthe Innumerable ponds and" lakes there scattered; is reported on some aUr tnority to purify the atmosphere, "VThat does it purify ? Malaria. - The Dismal Swamp: is also regarded as a happy ex ception from , the res of the country lying in its vicinity. ,; 3Iay not the peculiarity of f the soil have everything to do with ; this seem--ing paradox? Its quaggy peat bogs are fine absorbents ot irregular exhalations. . We Lope a gentleman of science and leisure will examine this question and tell us, the rea son Why. It will be stated that the ; poison' of ague is not a gass; that this has been proved , beyond cavil. True indeed is the media in which we jive a happy and heal thy mixture, provided it be a pure one, j and that imperceptable j particles floating in it will keep it so. Basements and low grounds expose the occupants to the influence of mi asma more than do .upper : stories and high lands. This is as a general thing admissi ble. Inr some districts it matters little .whether you dwell in a mud hovel, or in a . t palatial, mansion. The "shake and jtever" is bound to reach ou. i Professor Saulisbury is the most recent writer on the causationr of fever and ague. Many beautiful experiments have been tried by him, and in strips of land corresponding very much to certain tracts around this city. A field lies here for the professional curious to explore. Wei sincerely hope - that some son of the Art will grapple the idea, and push investigation jto the wall. j J. Now, lowlands are not always, jaor in ail nations,; subject to malaria; nor are high lands, nor higher hills, nor still higher moun tains, always free from its nox ious presence. Livingstpn states in his travels that in Cey lon many extremely low and damp spots' are exempt, while steep bluffs and arid crags are undergoing poisoning contamination. No doubt the elective affinity of the noted sections draws off what the valleys beneath had generated. The winds are pensers of good and e vil.

Hitherto they ravaged without spread their wings on the bias t." The pau city of inhabitants in regions naturally ma larious works kindly in the cause and pro-1-pagation pf ague (poison. - Forty ; years ago when Wilmington was but a town ot a very limited population its health land tone was of quite a different nature frond what It is at present, ' Then the "old style of billious fever'? -the cousin german to Yellow Jack 7- made sad ra vages. ! The : many stagn ant pools and the dark ravines, sent forth their leted odors, to l i i "Ruddy cheeks nale I And plumpy ones hollow." a To dim the lustre of the eye with the tell tale tinge of yellow, and ito change the peaceful flow of blood into-a pricking; burn ing, furious stream. Many reasons-: were given for the intermittents, and bilious re mittents, of July1, August, September, and October.' The rice fields opposite the town; the swamps ; the trees felled, and permitted to rot where they fell. A race of trees - now dying out was suspected. -: The pride of China, the falsely beautiful and Ulac-colored Melia Azederach: The datura stramonium. Jamestown weed a poisonous plant grow ing in old ruins, in moist and lonely by ways, received attention. Nor did the disa greeable Jerusalem oak, escape. All these were regarded jwith mucb' aversion,' aid their removal was effected to " some extent They were deemed the immediate propaga tors of malaria and its innervating r train. Hardly any doubt rests in our mind as jto this, knowing, to suppose, that at that earfy day less protection was afforded the commu nity by hygienic rules and regulations. As time rolled away the population increased;' the number of interested persons augmented j and the uited efforts of the whole were di rected to sanitary measures. ; They , cropped the wings of malignant I bilious, and gave freedom to the wings of health. At this period mariners eschewed . the Cape t Fear as much as the Fryingpan Shoals. The ex pression " Sailors' grave'' applied to Wil mington is sufficiently suggestive. Those hardy sons and toilers of the sea Would laugh at the hurricauce, would scorn the ocean billow, would defy the thunder, and blink at the lightenihg's flash ; tear, and tar and wear their lives out into death, withojut fear and trembling, without a single murmur or complaint But they, aghast 1 retained a holy horror ofkhe towflf of Wilmington. They hugged their hammocks at night, after a day on shoie, and inspired an air as in sidious as the venom distilled by a timely warning adder. The commerce of the town, was at stake Something must be. done to allay this fear. The citizen! contrived the charitable, as well as what would prove a profitable idea of erecting : a;'-." Sailors' Home." . Here men could be properly at tended, properly nursed, and a speedy resto ration to health, after a ! short convalesence, would be the result This was carried into execution, and the home in question be came one ot the institutions of ; the : city. . Alter the long struggle; of the Southerners to create anew nation,; and which went down in a sea of tears and blood, Wilmington with her sister cities of the Confederacy put on a bold defiant front It too in turn yielded to the 'fortune of war, and in turn was occupied by the National troops.- The. government took the Sailors Home,'! and has kept pos session ever since. It is still a i hospital for the seamen of the port, as well as for those of the revenue service. Trade in lumber and in spirits of turpentine was pot such as it is now. Consequently there were few mills, and fewer distilleries: The influx, of capital with what was native combined together, ti,. tfia ninii was converted to money, and its waste to Something else. Pysical and chemical changes began to take place, silently but AisurelyLi - The residents very soon observed a modification in the bilious type. : , "T ''-f:A tr .v: .
