At Norfolk io 1197 nml 1801, tlm yellow fever
originated on lo.t new made grounds, and in houses
built on tho docks. In Wutor-sircet it prevailed
with uncommon malignity, ut.il io n report tnudn hy
rcHprctahla phy.*u-iuu* ot that day, who hove given
1111 ttcioimt of ita causes, it is stated "that that
part ol tho town whore it prevailed stands entirely
on made land, reclaimed front the river hy sinking
pens oj large logs and tilling them up clnclly with
greene pine snpti,,*, which are slightly covered
oner with sand or gravel." Wo have heard nothing
of yellow fever in Norfolk since the people of that
place have adopted u proper system of reclaiming
bind, ol extending their whurve*, nnd since they
have filled up their collars
In Hultimorn tho yellow feverof 1800 wnsclenr-
ly traced to the v.cinity or Fell's Point, and ns it
was the docks in general, hut in»re especially the
interstices between tlm wharves, where the wnte
stagnated und allordedu proper matrix for the gi
ration uf poisonous elllmin, together with the low
ntuile grounds 00 which the whurve* were built, that
produced tho ep'dcmic, so with tin* removal of
these causes, it bus entirely disappeared.
In Philndelplen at the dillerent periods ofthe np-
peurunco of yellow fever in 1793, 91 ’97 and llJO-J,
it U well known that V' titer street w >s the scat and

und 1805 invariably exhibited them
selves first 011 ha*t Direr, where tho wharves
wero built on low ulluvioui soil, and constructed of
lags nml loose stones, whilo tho land in tho imme
diate neighbourhood was low mid moist. Sinco tho
land has fevn ele'a'ed nml properly drained nnd
care has Imeiilakeo in llm sn'uot lire ofthe wharves,
New York h is not been visited hy un epidemic of
this character.
In Boston and I’m vide nee tho yellow fever con-
sla.itlv exhibited ilselt along the harbour, shewing
clearly the connexion of tlm disease with miasm .ta,
proceeding' from tlm I wv grounds, wharves, &c.
immediately a,(joining tho water. Tlieso cities,
have, in common with tho oth-r Northern sea
pens, elevated the soil with, and formed their har
bour consiiiictinns for tho accommodation of ship

llm epidemic, with which they were visited ut Ion-
get and shorter intervals.
It is unnecessary to udvorttntho fact, in this con
nexion, of ihe almost invariable nppcurnneu of yel
low fever on tlm Eastern sidu of this city, hi the vi-
cioity ol our harbour, if the reply should bo niitdo,
that this is tho principal location of ■trangers, why,

vicinity ofthe docks, tho seats of the sumo disease
in nil our‘on port town*! Tho occurrence of this
uniform'y could not have been accidental. There
must, then, have heon a similarity in the causes
which led to it, and wo conceive no other thnn the
continued presence uf tlm alluvion which composes
our docks - th • construction of our wharves ufjlmsc
materials, principally of wood slightly covered over,
which are perishable nnd easily dec mipmod, and
thu constant prcscnco of sullicient moisture to pro-

Wo do not mean to say that a low moist surface

His only desire was to sen his wife, who wns in
tho family; and having obtained a slip of paper,
wrote with a pencil—" I want to «uo my wife. It's
si] I ask. N. T. D." It was deemed proper how-
ever, not to grant his request; and ho nfter half an
hour of tntonse suffering expired. His name wo*
Nathaniel T. Duncombc.
A* will be seen by tho following letters which
wo are permitted to publish, ono of which was ad
dressed to his wife an hour or two before, and tho
other found on hfe body nfter bis death, tho cause
pi the suicide was an unfortunate difficulty between
bimsolfand wife, which it appears he could not suc
ceed m reconciling. This difficulty arose from a
brutal treatmeut at his hands, and which compelled
her six or eight months ago, to leave tho family of
Mr. Fako. Tho husband who resided at Jefferson,
came to this place two nr three days before his
death for the purpose of reconciliation.
Having failed in this, he cumo to thn detcrmtnn-
(ton destroying himself; and waited until his wife
and .Mr. hakes family.hud gone to church, and
then crawled through a window into her apartment,
where after cutting hfe arms, which were found to
bo do ply gashed in sevornl places, ho opened his
wife s trunk, took out her clothing, and besmeared
each seperate article with blood, wroto the initials
pf his name, N. T. D. in glaring capitals, with
blood, upon thn wall, and then cut hfe throat!
Duticomhe formerly resided in the city of New
■ urk, where he now has a brother, and was a baker
by trade.
" I find it impossible to bring about a reconcilin*
lion with my wife, and 1 feel that it is impossible
for mo to survive it. It could have been eflccied,
and wo sfe.uld have been happy, if it wns not fora
tew who havo taken a mistaken view of my actions.
I forgtvo them. Let them remember, * to err fe
human, to forgive divine.’ I have striven hard in
this new roun|ry to obtain a homo for my family.
My affections wore wholly placed on mv wife, not-
withstanding some things that have occurred to mar
tho married. I freely forgive hef, and now I am
out of the way of prosecution, I hope she will for-
give what has gone amiss on my side, as she would
not do it when I wua still living. I used every pert-

termination to try once more; and if all foils, and
she remains inflexible to my request, n* I find it is
hard to part with her. as well a* with life, my doom
u sealed, and I shall leave this world, with all iu
allurements, to find that rest which death, tho poor

di tinier to lessen the present pressure,the more fea
sible alternative uppears tube, now that raising th#^ ’

It is tiresomn to be compelled to give such gloo
my account* ut our mtokei, but the depression no-
need lust week (when prices gnve wnyuboutidper
lb.) hus continued throughnut the present; iho de
mand hus been limited, with sumo anxious sellers,
nnd forced sales have been made in ono or two in- *
stances, owing to tho pressure for money which we
have noticed above, f he latest accounts from the
manufacturing districts represent the state of bust-
ness 1 ha re us extremely dull; and although it is no-
tonous that the stocks in the hands ofspinners art*
less than on almost any occasion of late yeats, a
want of confidence exists, and tfe-y will not purchase
more than sufficient to supply their immediate wants;
and until such confidence revives materially, a more
healthy busiaons cumtot hu expected to ensue. The
reduction in prices is again to a very serious extent,
American descriptions having declined IdnAd per
lb, and to effect sales in quantity even a grauterfoU
might have to be submitted to; the better qualities
(winch have been much neglected Iottc.lv) are ful-
y 4-1 ncr lb. lower, for really good Uplands and Or-
leans buve been sold at8}du9d per lb; we reduce
nur quotations accordingly, but they must.even now,
be considered nominal. Brazils aro heavy at id and
Egyptians-at |d decline, and Surats are ulso 4d
lower, except perhaps for good qualities, which Era

in prices would doubtless be followed up by more ex-
tens ve buying, if spinners could only find a better
market, and feel any certainty ofcnrly improvement.

Present of a Kitten to Her Majesty,—A faff

during its long journey; the basket also contained *
a letter, setting forth how thnt some time before bee
Majesty was crowned the old woman bad been iiH
formed in her midnight visions that her fovorito
tabby would have three kittens on the day of cor-,
onaiion. and had been commanded to send one of
tbe litter to thn Queen; thn day arrived, aad won
drous to tell, the cat did bring forth three kittens;
thooid woman, not at all surprised at lha event,
elected the finest of the feline trio, upon the head
of which her fancy had impressed a crown, and *
securing it in a hamper us above related, she die-
f latched it by coarb, having ap|»ndi'd to h the fol-
