The towns and villages are deserted, aud present a dilapi- dated appearance. The citizens bar their doors against visitors from Memphis, while all around them their neighbors are sick and dyine. It is for the relief of this class of pecople that the Hov.ards have organized medicine and relief trains on both the Louisville and Charleston railways, and they have found plenty 1o do.

Somerville, the largest of the towns mentioncd, perhaps 1,500 inhabitants, has been sorely afilicted, and reported forty mew cases yesterday.

Memuiis Avieal, Oct. 8. z On- Sunday last a number of heart-stricken citizens repaired to Elmwood Cemetery for the purpose of visiting the fresh-made zraves of their loved and lost, and soreading fluwers on the earth-hillocks that marked those sacred spots. But, tu their horror aod dismay, the graves of the dead could not be found, notwith- standing the long aud patient scarch made by the mouracrs aud by the ciaployes of the ceme~ tery. Thisis a horriole fact to have to disclose, it is_well calculated to awaken ibe deepest alarm in the minds of hundreds of _citi- 2ems who iad their loved ones interred at Eim~ wood. e will Ge wel to rewember bow the | there is u de; dead daily incumbered the graveyard, nnd how a hundred coflins lay around Elmwood daily awaiting interment, which had to be postponed for days sometimes, ‘ owing to the scarcits of gravediggers, the terrible death. rate, und _ the sickoess of those i charze of the cemetery during the gloomy days of September, when the fever-pest gathered in a hundred victims aday. Those wha died during those days, and whose relatives had not lots to bury their aead, purchased vrivate graves in that part of the cemetery known ag Cuapel [ill. Tne dead were taken out, and the cotlins, boxes, ete., were laid down on the rank grass, which Jocations, according to the theu Superintendent of the cemetery and those hav- ing charge of the interments, were the “exact gpots deslonated 13 lots number so-and-so. The. Zraves could not be dug until the next day, and the relatives and friends of the dead could not, of course, wait to see their dead interred. It noOw turns out that in thesedaysbut little atten= tion was paid to the manuer of wnterments. Long trenchies were dusr, and the cotfins were placed therein, side by side, resardless of the {fuct that, in many instances, private graves with, reguiar numbers were purchased and promised. to be furnished. How cau the living now find their dead! Can they feel certain (unless un eXathination takes place) that beneath the sod on which they kueel and prav and soread im- mortelles rests their own beloved dead? Cer- tainly not. On Sunday last it would- make one’s heart ache to have seen a gentlemen searching for the lost grave of bis wife at Elm- wood Cemetery. He bad purchased a privite grave but it cannot be found, and the horrible belief that his wife had been. buried in the trench or ditch haunted the unfortunate man as he wandered around; searching and Weeping. He had tlowers to strew. on the grave, but he - of . searched i in. ~ 'The cmploy the graveyard - -searched in vain. - The grave was - Jost. A lady at .the samnae thue was searching for a private grave on Chapel Hill, but that grave was also lost, and the treacherous ditches near by the sugzested the fate of the loved one who d The present employes at Elmwoud are new peosle, who were not there during the dark death days of September, and they know noth- ing of the past. Many of the old employes - have died, others are absent. As one of the oresent employes said: *In September every- thing wus in a horrible condition bere; there was no order nor system followed as to burying the dead. and many of thosc entitled to private graves were put in the trenches.” The uveyro grave-digeers tell tales as to how the dead were assure the liviug that their dead were vuried in accordance with directions or in such yruves a3 had been specially purchased for such purposes. Taere is no oue to blame probably, but the hor- rible fact exists nevertheless. VICKSBURG AND ITS VICINITY. Special Dispaich to The Tridune.
