Unofficially, the reprt K' litatives of the health department -ay that probably ■>0,000 people in New York are suffering from more or less severe atta< ks of infin euza, but they refuse to give it official recognition. The disease seems to have found a goodly number of victims among the employes of the New York postoftice. Saturday's absentees in the general office numbered sixty-five, and in many instan¬ ces persons on the sick li-t were letter assorters.

The recent mortality in Paris, from the ravages of the influenza, is a< follows: Wednesday, 318; Thur-alay, 303: Friday, 344. The sudden drop from the figures of Thursday- to those of Friday is taken as an evidence that the dreaded epidemic is. on tlie wane. A prominent physician of Philadelphia says: “There are fully 25,000 persons now in this city being treated for influenza in some form or other. All classes of citi¬ zens are numbered among its victims, and some of the leading business men of the city have been compelled to absent them¬ selves from their places of business on ac¬ count of the grippe.” The disease has also made its appear¬ ance in Detroit, Boston, Baltimore, New Brunswick, N. J., and Kansas City. At Detroit over five thousand are down with the disease. Fifty policemen, more than half the city's officers and their assistants, are laid up, and there is hardly a store or factory in the city whose clerical and working force is not seriously crippled. DIAGNOSIS OF THE INFLEENZA. The Medical News, of Philadelphia, says Influenza comes suddenly: goes as quick; least robust at any age and'women seem to be its first victims. It is here a ques tion of condition not of sex. The large numbers simultaneously attacked attracts general attention and thus those most im pressionable are seized, the onset living facilitated by any depressing emotion, like fear or illness. There is no rigor, prop erlv to be thus designated, but rather a series of chills and a feeling of heat there with, sometimes malaise of a general kind is experienced, but, lik - rhe at: ick itself. of short (tfirafio;i,' tasting-bm a few hours. AYith the first access of nasal and facial irritation, come a chilliness, which is followed by some feverishness with more headache, pronounced malaise, and in a gen eral weakness and soreness of the members, and especially of the larger joints. AYith the progress of the'ease in some epidemic, there is considerable gen eral weakness, even a marked depression of the vital powers. The pulse becomes small, and the mind gloomy and rest lessness ensues. When a fatal termina¬ tion is to occur, as a rule, an extension downward into the trachea and bronchi takes place.

Ai the last term of court, the grand jury found true bills against the murderers and against tlie fiie accessories, but the cases were continued, white people were disappointed, and fearing that justice might be defeated, took the law into their own hands. On Saturday morning a body of masked men visited the jail, overpowered the jailer, secured the prisoners, and marching them to the outskirts of the town, hung them to trees and riddled their bodies with bullets.
