Crump, James Dayler, Lizzic Malsi, James B. Henry, Walter Roberts, John Haw- kins, L. Baxley, Sister Victoria, Henry Ed- mondson, Milly Bradford’s child, Thomas Mil- ler, Jsaac Diller. 5 ‘The number ot new cases yesterday was thir- teen, and fourteen to-dav. ‘The fever in many Instances is ‘assuming an intermittent and remittent form, which makes the situation a littla brighter. ° The Masonic Hall Bospital was closed to-day for want of patients, while the Court-House Hospital bas turned out a number of con- valescents. For the first t!me'since the fever began, we have as many physicians and nurses as needed. The pbysicians report great destitution in every home where the fever has visited. The con- valescents are. 22 : WITHOUT CLOTHING OR BEDDING, and their families are siwilarly ‘situated, while the demand for provisions are bard to supply. Unless we have frost soon the distress will be indced deplorable. Every day brings some great and uncxvected calamity. All day yesterday it was knowa that, Sister Victoria, of Bethlchem Academy, could not live. She had the fever, and took a relapse from overwork in nursing ler sisters who had fallen victims to the digease. . Every effort was made to save a life that bhad been cheerfully of- fered to ameliorate the sufferings of a people she Joved and lived among. No finer example of Christian heroism can be found. She was a star, and beloved and admired nat only by her sisters, but by all who knew ber. - We scattered fiowers over her towmb with tearful eves, and God bless the woman who Las so distinguishsd her faith and her sex. DISPATCH FKOM J. C. TUCKER. Special Dispatch to The Tribune. Horux Srxines, Miss:, Oct. 5.—~The total number of deaths to last night is 225. Number now sick about 400. Holly Springs has lost her truest, ablest, and noblest citizens, and very many who came from various points within the past thirty days to the relief of the sufferers are how slecpiug their last slecp by the side of thase they sworked so hard and nobly to save. A simple shingle with the name written thercon in lead-pencil now serves to mark cach resting- vlace. When the cool days come, and this nes- tilence no longer spreads disease and death, we trust the survivors of this ouce beautiful town will see that each grave is properly marked, and the memory of the toilers and sleepers never forzotten. - A fitting place by the side of their menument to the Confederate dead would be the heroes of 187S. Be- fore my relapse I went out to the little ceraetery to strew flowers over the araves ol Col. Falconer, Secretary of State, Col. Walker, and others I had learned to ad- mire for their bravery, heroism, and otber ster- qualitics. In looking around I could see Iittle &s¢ than these two bundred fresh monnds and the burial corps at work preparing new eraves for those awaiting them. The sight was enough to appal the brayest heart. Col. Hess, from Chicazo, lived four days after his arrival. Dr. Lewis, of Tows, lived about a weck. Yet I som: es think the fever has been more fatal here with the oldest residents. To Dr. il. L. Metealt, of New Orleans, i desire in this pnb- Tic manuer to thank for _his_sidil and atzention i ining me safely thraugh both tever and Lf Potter Palmerconld bave been here the worsing his donation of blankets was re- ceived, and could koow how much good they havedone, it would have rejoiced his heart. I hope to be at work in two or tbree davs. J. C. TUCKER. © "CHATTANOOGA. THE SITUATION. Soerial Dispatch fo Thé, Tribune.

N, Lathrop, of this city, ap- peared for and with Harland, the latter conduct- ing the cross-examination of iitnesses in per- son. Commissioner Davison was asked to amend the warrant 50 a8 to hold defendant for trial before the United States Courts for the Southern * District :0of New York and the Western District of Michizan for willful contempt of court. In the argument which followed, Lathrop claimed that two dis- tinet offenses couid not be charged in the com- plaint, and as the prosecution had cleeted to try aefendant for o = A A FELOXY, they could not then .set up an entirely new offense. Th: Comumissioners sustainea Mr. Latbrop, and the éxamingtion then procceded. Matiiew H, Maydard, Notary Public, before *whom the celebrated, Marquette examination took olace, narrated:the details of the seizure as follows: Just befbre adjournment in the afteruoon, Harlund’ stid he wished to sec the books in tbel, cvening.

He re- turned in a few mindggs. 1 steoped out of the door just as Mr. Wevmore reached the foot of tbe stairs. 1 then turned and went back into the room.

Next morn- inz I had a conversation with Harlaud, and told him I had no interest 4n the question of ticle to the books as between:Wetmore and the New York Mine, and asked him if T could have the books to finish copyingthem, promisine to re- turn them to thevparties who then held them when I was through with them. He said he was sorry’ I could mnot have the job of coprinz the bovks, but the partics who then bao them would not give them up. Tie other side wanted i the books to take down to New York, and examine at leisure and dig out : SOMETHING AGAINST HIS CLIENT (TILDEN) if they could. ‘They couid not have the books for this purnose. If thiev wanted them on the trial, they conld have them, but ot betore. William L. Wetmoreafrom whom the buoks were taken, testilied that. during the evening Harland asked no questions that required the books, and nothbiug that required the presence of Dbooks. At previous gessions when he wisbed for . the books he asked for them respectfully, looked at what e want- ed, and returned them. = That evening b ealled for a book, looked at ib a little, then placed it on the floor by his side and a little behind him. After awinle he asked for another, and put it m the same place, and'this he did until be had < GOT ALL FOOR OF THEM into that place. Soon thereafter a man whom L had never seen before entered the door. seized the books, and rushed. out, 1 immediately jumped upand rushed after him into toe hall and down-stairs. As I came down to the sidewalk I saw this man throw books into a carriage. The horses werc then struck, and the carrisge driven rapidly away. I then returncd to May- ‘nard’s oflice, avd as I was going up-stairs I met a2 man coming down. He said nothing to me nor I to him.* : The telegraoh- operator at Ishpeming, oear Marquette, was then called and asked if he haa in his possession any telegrams seut by or re- ceived by Harland.

No Administration will stand higher than Grant’s when the accounts are made up, and a sober judament prevails. He was attacked by a few newspapers and . VILIFIED WITHOUT CAUSE. For instance, as Dana, of the Sun, and Reid, of the Tribune, and the mighty Halstead, who, because they did not receive the consideration they thoughit they were entitled to, got mad, | aud weut at their slanderous work.

THE CONGRESSIONATL SITUATION. Spectal Dispateh 1o The Tribune, CryeiNNaTh, Oct. 5.—A close review of the Congressional situation in Ohio shows that the Democrats are Likely to fall far short of their carly caleulations based upon Speaker Raudall’s redistricting scheme. . The derezation now stands twelve Republicans to eizliz Democrats, It was the object of the gerrymander to reverse this and give the Democrats fourtecn members to the Republicans’ eix. The best information up to to-night is that they will not carry more than ten, or at most eleven, districts. Six dis- tricts—the Second, Fourth, Seventeenth, Eighteenth, Ninteenth, and Twentieth—are surely Republican. Seven—the Third, Fifth, Sisth, Eighth, _Fourteontn, Fiftcentn, and Sixteenth—are | pretty sure to “go" Deinodratic.” The remaining scven are in doubt, but it is pretty certain that the Repub- licans will carry more of them than the Demo- crats. The prospects for the defeat of Eswing in the Tenth, Converse fa the Ninth, and Frank {lurd in the Seventh, are zood. TheDemocrats are especially anxions to sccure a majority of the delegation, - as they only.want threc more States to give them a majority fu the House of Representatives on the roll-call of States. » -THE STATE TICKET. The outlook for'the State ticket is very un- certain. Both parties have concéntrated their cfforts on “‘the Congressional Districts to the neelect of the State caudidates. Taere are National candidates inall but three districts, and it would not be surprising il oue, and per- Lups two, of them were elected. [Estimates as to the National strength id the State vary. It will probably reach 50,G00, and may o bigher. Smalley, of the Cleveland Her- a’d, thinks they will "cast from 100,000 to 125, 000 votes. ‘The Republican canvass has been from first to last for bardmoney.
