Tho Warren ton Clipper of the 25fb !
has this: “During the height of the ex
citement in Warren!on, incident to the
prevalenc of smallpox in Thomson, a
strange white woman, hailing from the
latter place, made her cppearencc here
in the night-time. Bhe applied at the
hotel for lodging, which being refused,
She afterwards went to the house of Bet
oral negroes And asked to be permitted
to f-p< nd the night. The quarantine po
lire being apprised of her presence, gave
tin town a thorough search, but hided
to discover her wher<id>v.U. Hue i
said to have had a quantity of jewelry
which she tr ed to dn-pose of, and claim
ed to be n resident of Thomson, fro*
which place she intd deserted lei* hn

5 rn<rc r the night referred to above,. .
| Wb > *e is. umt where she went to, af- j
j ter leaving uere, is a mystery which has
j not yet been solved.” No person, with ;

of (ho oldest inhabitant. The woman
must have been a fraud or crunk.

KEEP COOL.
Our readers will remember that, in h
reoeol issue, wc copied And commented
on an editorial of tho Wurreuton Clipper
upon tho subject of tho smallpox in
Thomson. We regret that our esteemed
neighbor has misconstrued our meaning.
In his last issue Brother Paltillo attri
bute*! the article mentioned to tho “pet
tish ness and impatience of the sick room,
and the bilHousuess consequent upon
'‘qunritutiuu" restraint.” This is a
grievous mistake. If ho hod copied our
article into his columns Ids renders won) i
have seen that there lias been no epidem
ic of smallpox in this place and that the
wild, exaggerated reports concerning it
were unfounded, and were inflicting a
severe and entirely unnecessary injur'*
upon our town. They would have also
seen that we expressly stated that the
people of Thomson have not objected to
the remarkable precautionary measures
adopted by Warreutou. Their “quaian
fcitio” bus given ns no tumble w • ttever,
certainly not enough to make any od>
“pettish.” Moreover, the renders of the
Clipper would have failed to detect in
our Article even tho remotest symp'oms
of “pettishneH.s, impatience or billions
-1105 s.*'
However, tho trouble is now past.
The injury iuflioted by tho pit s, noe of
smallpox in our town, whether it “rag*
td” or not, has been bravely borne and
cannot now be remedied, and we feel too
grateful for our escape from tlm scourg
to compare “billumsuess” with Brother
Pittillo, or anybody else. Wo trust hi
will read lhe statement of our citizens
published elsewhere, give his readers the
substance of what they stale and then
lay aside his nervousness about smallpox
and come ovt r and see us.
