Th« Vellow Fever Disappearing.

the epidemic which ha3 prevailed so
violently in those cities for some time pact
may now be considered almost at an end.

From the mutilated state of many of the ;

The Griffiv Election-.—The American

to the action of the temperauco party and
not to the Know Nothings. The temper

A new faction has sprung up among
tho democrats of Minnesota, founded upon
matters of railroad policy,and styling them
selves the “Anti Fraud" party. They de

Excitement at a Political Meeting.—
Gen. Cass delivered a political speech to
l,f,00 persons at Chicago on the fiOth irwt.
He wai listened to with great attention,but
alter he sat down, some one callol for three
groan * for Judge Douglass, who was also on
the stand. The call wa ; hissed down, but ;
cheers were given for Ohio. Pennsylvania, and
Indiana. The Chicago IVilntne says :
At this juncture considerable confusion j
prevailed when sonic 'me called for a ■-•peech |
from Frederick Douglass, (black man) who j
was in the room. It was caught up and
responded io, apparently, by five hundred
persons. The effect was as exeitiug as if a
bomb-shell had been thrown into tuc room
Col. Rnowhook rushed upon the ‘-cand and
blandished his fist ft’, the crowd, while
Col. Hamilton declared in the most emphat
ic manner, t.lia if Douglass came in the
stand, lie would have him rent to the watch
house. $ucli an uproar as followed we have
seldom witnessed. It seemed ns if pande
monium had broken loose, acid tho threat*
of the Nebraskaites only made the matte-
worse. Federiok Douglass had the good
sense to retire, during the confusion, but
the crowd did not know it. The meeting
was dispersed by some ore turning off the
gns.
We learn that .Jacob Mercer, who was
recently tried in Stewart county for the
murder of Green B. Lee, has been convict
ed of the offence and sentenced by J ud ge Cr * w-
fORD to be hung on the 20 th day of Decem
ber next. The case received the most pa
tient investigation, having occupied the
Court four days.
|@r Mr Finney, a dent isf, late of Alex

most remarkble facts which modern perse
verance has yet brought to light concerning
the arts of the ancients.
The New York correspondent of the Char,

Fire.-*-A fire broke out about three o’
clock this morning in the workshop of Mr.
F. P. Seignous, in the rear of his residence
facing on Meeting st., and adjacent to the
Pavillion Hotel, soon extending to the car
riage factory of Mr. L. Chapin, which, as
we write, is*in flames, as also the dwelling
of Mr. Seignous.
The firemen are working gallantly, and
there are some hopes of saving the Hotel,
A large portion of the stock of Mr. Chapin,
especially that in the upper portion of the
building, has been destroyed.
4.30, A. M.—The kitchen attached to the
Hotel is now on fire, and fears are enter
tained that the flames will communicate
with the main building.
4.45, A. M.—As we go to press the kitch
en attached to the Hotel is enveloped in
flames. The firemen are working nobly,
and we trust that the fire will be confined to
its present locality.
5, A. M.—The carriage factory of the
Me?sr8. Gilbert, to the West, on Wentworth
street, is in flames.—Charleston Courier.
