The mercury yeeterday morning stood persistently at plus eighteen—marking it aa tbe oddest oay of the season. Other thermometers tray, and probably did, enow one or two degrees lower, as ours baa often of late been surpassed in performance. But wo were satisfied and asked for no more. Old Bores* came with on edge—keen bj a razor, and Africa turned grey and ashy. Tbe telegrams, however, report at half past 8 yeeterday morning, 1 below zero at Naihville, and G below at Louisville. At Knoxville, Tennessee, the temperature was pi as 2. These are the only Southern points from which a report baa reached ui up to present writing. In the Northern and Western States, at tho same hour, the mercury wav SO be low zero at Omaha, 13 below at St. Paul, Leavenworth and Chicago, 15 below at Iodianapolis, and 11 below at Pittsburg and Detroit. At Buffalo, with a temper ature of three above zero, the wind ws s blowing forty miles an hour, and it was snowing hard. In Europe it was no belter. The weather was plerolngly oold, and it waa snowing heavily in Scotland, with a pros- peot of a general block in trave'. Io Franco the rivers ware overflowing their hanks in oonsequenoa of heavy thaws of previous mows. In •horf, *1* out doors, both in Barope and Amerioa, was thoroughly disgruntled. If any body has ever talked about a mild winter let tbe words bo recalled. Lieutenant Flipper's Book. Wo have jast received, by mad, from tho publishing house of Ilomer, Lee St Co , New York, the Autobiography of Lieutenant Henry Ossian Flipper, U. S. A., the first graduate of color from tho West Point Military Academy. Tbe book, which contains 322 pagee, is gotten up in good style, and is dedicated to the President and faoulty of the Atlanta University, (coh) Daring his sojourn in Macon, last year, we met the Lieutenant on several occa sions and always found him courteous, pleasant and respectful. We can recall his speech to the colored battalion, also, which ho inspected and reviewed in true military style, and feel constrained to Bay that it waa both conservative and appro priate. Flipper is A native of Thomaaville, where his lather, Feetns, a shoemaker, still resides, and was formerly owned by Rev. Reuben K. Lucky, of that plaoe. He appoars to have been a lad of good charac- or, and at the conolusiou of the war, having removed to Atlanta, after a nine moctha’ sojourn in Macon, entered the oolored University there, and mas thus qualified for ins subsequent career at West Point. His Appeintment as a cadet was due to the exertions and influence of Mr. Free man, tho Republican member in Con gress from the Fifth District. Tbe book before ns is mainly devoted to tho cxparieneM of Lieutenant Flipper at the Military Aoademy, and contains numberless extracts from letters, news papers, etc., complimentary or otherwise. While ws find somewhat to approve of occasionally in its pages, there is much to condemn, liadioal ranoor and raoe prej udloes are but too freqasntly apparent, though It is but fair to Ray that hs him self was often the snbjsot of insult and personation at the bands of white assoc! atos at the Aoademy. His book will probably make a lion of Lient raaut Flipper at the radioal North, and among bis oolored Southern broth ren. It wav Intended to sell doubtless, and will probably provo a peouniaiy euo- oeaj. Bat whether it will aid him eooi ally, or promote his fortunes os rn mmy officer may be capitally doubt id. At Woman Vote of Wyoming A correspondent of the Denver Mirror, who went to Wyoming to take a practical view of woman suffrage, is enthusiast! over the matter. He repudiates the ah legation that respectable women shun the ballot, and describes tbe ladies' poll at the Cheyenne election, thus: Io tbe town are t *o poiling places, one of these, a nicely furnished room in the Inter-Ocean Hotel, the moat of the women vote, and some gentlemen who hava accompanied their wiTea and sisters with others who, on oercunt of the order, quiet and neatness that prevails, doubt less prefer to cist iheir vous here. It this room, the floor of which is covered with Brussel* carpet, sat tho judges and clerks of the election—three Udies and two gentlemen. The bright, intelligen and pleasant faces ol the ladies, and the dignified and pleasing manners of the gentlemen, gavo a homelike appearance that wib very agreeable, and one could not fail to ask why objections should be made to women participating in a matter •f so much importance a; the government of their country. Women voters were coming and going during all hours. Many cams in their own carriages, some in carriages Bent by political pAllies but many walked, preferring this rather thin pUoe tbemselvej under tbe appear anceof being influenced by riding in carriage provided by, any patty—though men do not scruple to ride when they have tbe opportunity. Tho ladies brought their ballots wilh them. They knew be fore ihey came for whom they were go iug to vole. Having the ticket before hand, they knew exactly whose name .to scratch, and some, at iesst, did not vote tho Btreight ticket. Tho ladiee do not forget e man's political record. His mor al character has muoh to do in gaining or losing their voto". There was no elec tioneering at the voting-place; no; word was npoken, oooasionaity a gentle man in the crowd that etood on the side walk wonld bow to a lady acquaintance, bnt not one word did we hear daring the time we remained. Tne dispatch with which they voted was a marvel. The avorage timo for lady to walk from her carriage aoroRs the sidewalk, deposit her bailor and seat her self in her carriage again, wn twenty- eight second*. Tbe longest lime taken by any one lady, while we noticed them, waa forty-five seconds, the shortest eigh teen seconds. Tbe verdict of every horn est mind is to the character of a majori ty of theso women would undoubtedly be, “respectable, good women.” We are told .that it was quite a rare thing for woman's vote to be challenged, although men were there pH day for that purpose. Ten years of political ltfo hat not corrup ted the women so that the men cannot trait them. Though large nnmbera of men stood around the polling plaoe all day not a load word wav heard; no smok ing and no ipilticg on the walk over which the ladies had to pass. The way w; i always kept free fjr them to pass through. If these were not gentlemen, they wero iho best counterfeiters we have ever seen. The whole aopearanoe and bearing of these men bear testimony of their respeotabiiity. Hxsn to Pr.axar.—Complaints are rr_ ported from New York about the gold dollar—it is too small—it is easily lost— it slips between the linger:; and the oon- SEqncDCo of this dissatisfaction is a Ire- action ;u favor of silver. Tho reason why people are so very fastidious about their money at this time may, perhaps, be found In tho fact that there is so little of if. By and by, when local bank paper gets to bo Abundant, people will pass it without examination or crltioism. TnzDirriniNrr. Betwisk a Duck and a “Dsxu.” — Ooo of the brightest and sweetest of the lady teachers of tho pub lic schools waa paddling along.as best she oould throu-b the driving rain recently, en rc :e tor ber school bouse, when a passing frit ml oud wa.; hailed her and said, “Ob, Mre. 1 always knew yon were n “dear.’’ but never before a “da-I.' Tl-e truth is tbe poor lady bad almost per t' -co -ity to imitate that aquat ic bird to V tttilo to make any headway in Bii'ti i aliiim nl all. Moral: In rainy, inoliinci.t w-alber, it should be left to tbe sound discretion of tho teacher wheth er or not to hrinf! oat etui expose per haps to diphtheria »nd booth the precious children under her charge. How many abzionspHSodU will vole aye to this prop osition » Kesumpttou Fully Inaugurated The agony of resumption ia ovor at length and proved to bo no agony what ever, bnt the sweetost and easiest thing imaginable. Indeed, it was an aocom plisbed fact some time before the ad vent of the greatly dreadrd appointed day. Bat neither Mr. Sherman or any one else is entitled to epeoial praise in the premises. The .happy Issue was the result of a fortunate concatenation of oir- oamslanoos, prominent among whloh is the faot that tho balancs of trade has for months been largely in oar favor, and the remonetization of silver has taken off tho edge of tho appetite for veritable hard money. Every one, for some lime past, who bus been lacky enough to han dle any money at a'l, is already aiok of the heavy load of silver which mast be oarrted even to meet ueoesaary current ox pesises. Hence the people and banks, toe, were quite prepared to dispense with tbe shining staff, provided they oould get good, dean greenbacks and legal tenders in lien thereof. Bat confidence, that very expressive and comprehensive ward, famishes the key to tho solution of the whole matter, Tne plighted faith and immense re- eources of tbo United Blales government are pawuedfortho aolvenoy and redemp tion of the securities uttered under its imprimatur, ana the very existence of these obligations tend, like the English consols, to solidify and bind together all sections of the country. How much bet ter is this ooDdition of things than the inflated State currency of former times, when private banking companies traded upon the credulity of the public to the extent of issuing from three to five dol lars of their billa for every one dollar of available funds for their redemption, and had no backing whatever! We feel quite sure that the best, and safest currency to be instituted is that whioh is baaed upon the Integrity and oredit of all the tax-payers of the nation, the amount ia&ued to be guided and con trolled by the immediate representative* of the people in Congress. Now, if the holders of our securities abroad, when they see that there is no run whatever upon the treasury at home, will consent to be quiet and not realise, all will go on smoothly and well.

HoiTETTra’a Stomach Biitkrs.—This popular tonic meets with universal ap probation, and, indeed, in many malarial districts is almost an indispensable ad dendum to the ineviteblo qninine used in chills and fevers. The commissioner of Internal Revenue, Hon. Green B. Raum, has decided and thns declares that: “From all tbe statements and repre sentations thns made in this case, I am Erilicfied, notwithstanding the fact that these bitters are sometimes sold by -’the glass by retail liquor dealers, that they have been properly classed as Medicinal Bittors, and when duly stamped, under the provisions of Schedule A, of the Re vised Statutes of the United States, that they may bo sold as other medicinal arti- ticlea and sold without tho vender be ing required to pay a special tax as li quor dealer. Tbe ruling of this office, therefore, contained in tho letter to Col lector Carroll, of October 2d, 1878, so far as it relates to HostetteFs Stomach Bit ters, is hereby revoked.” The above ruling is also substantially confirmed by the commissioner’s general decision of the 14th instant on the same article, as it may be found in the internal revenue record of December 16th, 1878. Dealers will therefore take notice, that in accordance with the decision of the commissioner just above quoted, you are □ot required to take out a liquor dealor’s license in soiling our bitters.

Tho Ereeze in its issue of the 24th ult. says tho Floridian, refers to information which has bson given it upon the subject of tho orange crop of Florida. Its infor mation from the Indian nver and Halifax country is that 3,750,000 oranges hava actually boon shipped this year from that region, and upon tnis information it bases ito estimate of the annnal crop for the entire Slate at 12,000,000. Wo think that our friend is far short in bis csti- msts. Tho Enquirer and Sun estimates the value ot tho oiaugo crop (which is obtained from tho Apalachicola river alone} to Colnmbus at $40,000. We have also been informed that u census of the trees now bearing and that will probably bear within four years has been taken around Orange Lake and its vicin ity, and that 483,000 trees bare been reported. Now assuming that each tree will bear 1,000 orange i it is reasonable ty eay that four yeo-a hanco an annnal crop of 483.C00.0C5 oranges will ba ship, pod from this region alone. We do not inoluds tho erop which may be produced on too St. John’s ani Gulf coast. If then the friend who reported the taking of the census to us has made no mistake, we nnhoeit.-Uingly say that iu four years the orange crop will exceed in valne the cot ton crop of the State. Surntar Aciranc:: Robert Robinson, who died on Wednesday, December 10th, 1873, waa the oldest nep-ro in Florida, having passed his one hundred and twea- tiethyear, He was brought to Florida in 1778 by an Afrioan slave trader, and landed near St. Augustine with a num ber of othar African slaves. When near- ng the shore he esoaped from tbe vessel by swimming, and secreted himself in a hollow log, amid the dense foliage of a thick swamp, but his pursuers placed bloodhounds on his trail and he was re captured. He was the father of ten children, and this statement is from his fifth child, s eon, who is seventy-four years old, and was with Colonel Hanson at the capture of Osoeola. He says his father could live no longer—that he actu ally '‘dried op.” loe one quarter of an inch thick on the beach at Jacksonville. An enterprising fisherman took one hno- dretj and eighty-five shad at the St, John’s bar on Saturday last. The fish are worth fifty cents a pair in the Jacksonville mar ket. They have watermelons and tomatoes in the Tampa market. Tampa shipped in November 314,880 oranges, and for the past three weeks, 940,923. THE GEORGIA PttESS. Most cart Statistics cf Ssvansau.— Mr. Torl»y, keeper of Laurel Grova Cem etery, of 8avannah, reports 1,013 inter ments for the put twelve months. Tbe greatest number of bnrials, we are sur prised to see, took place in May, amount-, ing to 92. The consolidated statement of the number of interments from the opening of the cemetery in October 1832' to December 31, 1S78, twenty-sir years and three months, is 10,777 whites, and 13,863 colored, showing a total ot 24.G45. The Election ror Codijtt Omcins in Savannah.—The Macs says: There was considerable enthusiasm manifested in a quiet way, and no little hard work was done by the voterans in electioneering. There were one or two knock downs, tho reeult of soma hasty words, bnt no serious disturbance oc curred, and the aid of the police, a squad of whom were located in the eqaare op posite the polls for an emergency, wax not required. There were a multiplicity of tickets displayed presenting various combinations, and it was not difficult to make a choice; nevertheless there was some scratching done by those who cenld not find tho exact little ballot they de sired. As is known, there wero no nomi nations made by the Democratic party, and the race was a “free thing,” so to speak, candidates having the privilege ol announcing themselves. There wero seven offices to be filled, and for all but threo there was only onA candidate in the field. Tho opposition was for- sheriff, coroner and tax receiver, there being fonr candidates out for the honors of the second, and two for the first and third. The total vote polled was 2.300, which may be considered a fair vote under the circumstances. The oonnt of one box only bad basn conolnded, bnt enough was known to show that John T. Ronan was elected Sheriff, O. S. Hardee, Clerk; Barnard E. Bee, Resorder; J. J. McGowan, Tax Goileotor; B. J. Sbeftall, Coronei; John Williamson, Treasurer, and John R. Tebean, Snr- veyor. Sudden Death or a Btbanoku.—From the same: About a quarter put ten o’clock yesterday, a stranger named F. Oden, whilst standing on the forward deck of the Bteair , 'b'p Gate Oity, lying at tbo Central Railroad wharf, was appar ently seized with a fit and suddenly fell, striking the baok part of his head on tbe uombing of the forward hatob. He was oonveyed to the forward saloon, and every attention waa given him, bnt he ex pired in a few minutes without uttering a word. The deoeued had engaged pre sage to New York on the steamer, whioh was on the eve of sailing at the time, and tbo body was consequently taken ashore. Coroner Chisholm was notified, and, it is expeoted, will hold an inquest to-day. Papers found on the body of the de ceased showed that he wm from the town of Union, Hudson oouoty. New Jersey, and that sinoe December 7th he had been in tbe Marine Hospital under treatment for heart disease. He was apparently about forty years of age. Thx Countt Election in Atlanta.— In default of fall returns tho Con- slilulion does not give the positive results ot the late eleotion, bnt thinks the fol lowing candidates have been elected: Sheriff, W. A. Wilson; Tax Collector, S. li. Hoyle; Clerk, J. 8. Holliday; Tax Receiver, William Ezzard; Surveyor, B. F. Walker; Treasurer, C. M. Payne; Cor oner, W. G. Drake. There items to be no donbt of Wilson’s election. Holliday and Collins are so close that an official vote wiH be required to decide the result. How a Five Dollar Bond or the New lasna will Look.—Treasnrer Ren free showed a Constitution reporter tho device and designs ot one of these bonds. It is as follows: The lettering on the face ischazte and not at all bold. The face r- litea tbe character and issuance of the bond puronanoe of law. Two vignettes adorn either end of the face, one of whioh, tbe first, will contain the portrait of a very yonng and handsome Georgian for whom the Treasnrer has special affection—his grandson—while the other will have the coat of arms of tbo State. Tho scroll and lathe-work in the corners and around the border will be very handsome, and the tinted back ground, with tho words "'five dollais,” will bo iu perfect har mony. THE EEVKHSS side of tho bond will he enclosed with border and coiner pieoes, and will con tain in full the act of tho General Assent bly authorizing the issuance of this series of bonds. Tbe coupons are diminutive postage- stampy affairs, ranged in a line along the bottom of the bond. They ore lillipntion dnc-bllls whioh the big bill ssems to hover over sa a hen would over its chick ens. Treasurer Renfroe, to avoid tho ragged look which severing the coupons would give tho bonds, has endeavored to so arrange aa to have them on tho end whero they might be clipped the full width of the bond, but is not satisfied, os yet, with hia pl.in. The bonds will eoon bo completed. One negro was arrested on election day in Atlanta for illegal voting. There wero very few challenges. Vert few changes ot business firms have been made in Atlanta so far the present year. Talbotton Standard: Rev. R. J. Wil lingham has accepted the call of Tal botton Baptist chcroh. He will preach next Sabbath. We congratulate the church and the community on the coming of thio moat excellent young man and minister into onr midst. Hawk ins ville is Buildina a Steam boat.—The Dispatch says: There is con siderable interest felt in the completion of the steamboat now being built at this _ !ace for Mr. R. R. Woods. The work was commenoed on the 11th of July last, the gentleman whose name heads this article will soon beoome a citizen of At lanta, and pays him this well-deserved compliment: Judge Montcomery is just now in the prime of a vigorous manhood, and is among the most honored citizens of Geor gia. Having distinguished himself early in life as a lawyer of close study and pro found research, and as a first-rate Solici tor General in tbe old “Middle Circuit,” renowned so long for its able bench and bar, it was sot surprising that such a man should be called to the highest judi cial position in the State, the Supreme Bench. Since he left the Snpreme Bench, which he honored and adorned. Judge Monlg.mery has been practicing hie pro fession in Savannah, and has been en gaged in some of the most important oases in the State. Da. McFrbsin raised four thousand and fifty dollars for the publishing house at tbe Sonth Georgia Conference. The election in Muscogee for County offioers resulted re follows: Sheriff, J. G. Borrns ; Treasnrer, T. Markham; Tax Colleotor, D. A. Andrews; Receiver, W- W. j Dozier; Clerk, George Y. Fond; Coroner, B. O. Lloyd; Surveyor, J. E- Lamar. The Times says : The impressions made from observing yesterday's eleotion convince* ns more than ever tbat Georgia stands sadly in nsed of a registration law, and we ain- oerely trust that the Legislature will fa vorably consider the bill upon that sub ject now pending. Mbs. Adolph L. Sakoeb died jn.New York City on Wednesday. She was a si: ter of Mr. Samuel C. Lsvy, Jr., and nieoe of Major J. Moses, and was well known says the Times, in Colnmbne society. Richmond Countt Election.—The fol lowing are the sncesafnl candidates For Tax Colleotor, J. A. Bohlor; Clerk of Superior Ceurt, 8. H. Crump; Treas urer, W.W. Dunbar; Sheriff, 0. H. Bib- ley ; Tax Reoelver, R. J. Wilson; Clerk of Connty Court, J. W. Taliaferro; Sur veyor, E. Minis; Coroner, M. J. Jones. POVERTY AND DISTRESS, That poverty which produces the great est distress is not of the purse but of the blood. Deprived of its richness, it be comes scant and watery, a condition termed anemia in medical writings, Given this condition, and scrofulous swellings and sores, general and nervous debility, loss of flesh and appetite, weak lnngs, throat diseases and consumption are among the common results. There fore, If you are a sufferer from thin, poor blood, do not hesitate, but employ Gol den Medical Die overy which enriches the blood and radically cures these affec tions by striking at the root of the evil and removing the canse. For all bronchial, throat and lungaffec- tions, severe lingering coughs, weak lungs, consumption in its early stage?, asthma and. kindred affections, Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery is the sovereign remedy, and has outrivaled all its competitors. It is harmless in any condition of the system, yet powerful core. Druggists sell it. Jackson, J.—Tbe oonnter affidavit to distress warrant for rent brings the oase into the Saperior Coait, and when said aflldavit is dismissed, on motion of the plaintiff, the caae passes out of tbe jaii diction of tbe Coart, and is remanded to tbe Sheriff by operation of law; and the dismissal of the warrant, on aooonnt of the insufficiency of the plaintiff’s efflit vit to proonre it, was nnanthorizsd—there being no longer any oese in Coart. Judgment reversed. Harman vs. Estate of Harman. Dower, from Washington. Jackson, J.—1. Documentary evidenc attached to the bill of exceptions must be identified either os exhibits or otherwise. 2. A widow is not entitled to dower ont of land conveyed by her husband to se core a debt. Though tne transaction be only an eqnitable mortgage, the widow must comply with the contract before she can take tbe land. Writ of Error dismissed. Hammond, surviving partner, vs. Drow. Complaint, from Emanuel. Jackson, J.—Sait was brought on a promissory note for fees. The note was made to a partnership, and the surviving partner sued: Held, on the trial of the caso between the surviving partner and Drew, tho de fendant, that Spence, one of the parlies to the contract for tho joint piosecutiob of the suit having been sworn in the case, Drew was a competent witness, notwith standing the death of A. W. Hammond. Judgment affirmed. GOOD RESOLUTION FOR NEW YEARS. Many, on the entrance of tbe nowyear, form new resolutions of good conduct te bo observed during tho coming year.

Graat’sTraveli at tUe Public Ex pense. Correspondence or the Times J Boston, December 30. When Secretary of’ War Belknap waa in his glory, about three years ago, his charming little wife (who had not then speculated in post-traderships to an ex tent sufficient to warrant the exprase of sporting a first-class private yacht) con ceived the brilliant idea of killing her less fortunate rivals with envy and at the same time astonishing the country with the novel and unusual sight of converting a first-class ship of war into a pleasure yaoht, for the express accommodation of herself and a select party of privileged ladies, gentlemen, babies and nurses. For this interesting event tho then hon orable and obliging Secretary of the Navy, Robeson, placed at the disposal of the little lady and her particular friends the United States Bteam frigate Powhatan, one of the largest ond most expensive ships in the navy. Now comes General Grant and his lit tle junketing party, who aro to “do” India and China in a first-class govern ment vessel and astonish tbo nabobs and Oriental grandees. When Dozn Pedro, ‘Emperor of Brazil, -visited this country he and his suite came in a regular packet steamer, and took their departure in the same way. Tho, Marquis of Lome and hia royal wife took passage to their new home by one of the Alian steamers in preference to the moro regal and osten tatious conveyance of a ship of war. But the friends of bur little General have de cided that' ‘■lie shall travel rieht royally, Sttange countries tor to see.” and they have induced the amiable and patriotic Secretary of tho Navy to place the United States steamer Richmond at his disposal. THEMOHMOND. As a description of the ship whioh has been designated to do honor to General Grant by conveying him nnd his snite to tho scenes of his anticipated Oriental tri umphs may provo interesting to the read ers of tho Times I paid a visit to the Uni ted States steamer Riohmond, while ly ing at the Charleston Navy Yark, just be fore her departure for New York on her trial trip lost Saturday. The Riohmond is one the “craok” ships of our rather feeble navy and she is con sidered ono of the few really presentable ships in tho service, She is o sister ship to the Brooklyn and Hartford, bnilt at Norfolk, Virginia, daring Buchanan’s ad- ministration, rates second cla s, has a dis placement of 2,000 tons, monniH fourteen gnns and lies a orew of 320 men. The Riohmond has had a new set of engines put in her since she was bnilt and has roooctly had uew boilers put in. She has been thoroughly over hauled at this station, and much elabo rate ornamentation has been indulged in, probably on account of the distin guished passengers she is destined to carry. New and costly carpete, furniture and fittings havo been added to her cab ins and word room. The after, or admi ral’s cabin has been fitted up in an ele gant, if not sumptuous, manner for the express accommodation of Gen. Grant and esite, and it is thought that addi tional embellishment and appointments will be mado to the cabin and state rooms set apart for His Excellency and friends when the Bhip arrives at the port in Eu rope where General Grant may elect to embark for his Oriental tour. It is tho opinion among the officers of the Rich* mond that General Grant will embark either at Marseilles or Spezxia. The ship will then proceed, by way of the Suez canal, dirt ct to Calcutta. ^Ot the Americans who went to Br^’J to w°rk upon the Mamore Ralroad, # ot remaind* 0 ? eTeat J are still at vork. * he find?K?S h . iT e scattered in all iirectif«» finding it un P038 j bIe to lccimm «cite t0 th e climate e=d wt« ™* h ° raise money Io pay their tho. ?. \ re returning home as fori they can. but a W * aiori t, pmnot get ccuntey. 6Sd t3 (ake them 0QC 0, jj h ° l ” ,Ter * ,, T ol’ Georgia- | aim,? ,, ! be gratified to know ttat4»r “ doing well and h»‘ e>[ry ° f ,’i eDewin S its old vigor.

Captain WiUiam Weir, of the Bteamer City of Rio Janerio, which arrived at New York from Brazil, Friday, says that just before he Bailed for New York he met a man from Ce&ra, tho famine-stricken re gion in northern Brazil, who told him that tbe people there were dying so fast that it was impossible to make coffins to supply tbe demand, and that they dag ditches and tumbied the unihrouded corpses into them, eight or ten at a time. The deaths from small-pox were aa high as 500 and 600 daily. in Ceara alone, and it was with great difficulty tbat that per sons could be found to oonvey the dead bodies to the ditches in which tbey were buried. The city was orowded, when thd small-pox broke out, with refugees from the interior of the province, who had been driven in by the terrible famine which desolated it a few months ago. Among these refugees, already weakened by the famine, the small-pox raged with tearful violence. The Biaziiian Government is doing all in its power te alleviate the distress, for the country outside of C<rara suffered less than tbe city itself, simply because there were fewer people to be attacked. During tbe famine the government sent away all the people they could (about 30,000.) scattering them nearly all over Brazil. One thousand wore sent to Para, where they were employed by the Collins brothers in the construction of the Ma more Railroad. Captain Weir says that while tho amoil-pox in Coara capnot be exaggerated, liters is no truth in the re port that the people in the interior of the province are cmpelled to devour carrion and corpses. The inhabitants left in tho country are ao few tbat the government new has no difficulty in supplying them with all the food Ihey require.
