In New Orleans, and Presumably in other centers, the death rate was highest in September, when the fever was raging most furiously. This terrible visitation, of course, caused untold suffering, even among those whom the fever did not attack, and thousands of people were destitute, for the scourge choked practically all the lines of trade and business and entire communities were without means of support. To aid these and to defray the enormous expenses of the fight to suppress the epidemic contri- butions were sent from all parts ef the country, and indeed thousands of dollars were received from foreign countries.

Thus far the yellow f2ver in the vicinity of New Orleans and the @ther cities near the mouth of the Mississippi has been kept within narrow lmits. The disease does not seem to have developed into a virulent form or to have spread with its usual rapid- ity. Whether this be due to the prompt measures taken to prevent the cemmur!- cation of the germs cr to the condition of the atmosphere in the infected region is not now plain. It ts a pecular feature of this and many cther epidemic discases that they do not always thrive with the same virclence under what seem on the ‘rface to be exactly similar conditious. It will be good fortune if it transpires that the atmcspheric elements are at present unfavorable to the multiplication and spread of the bacilli. Yet the danger of the development of gn epidemic of greater or less severity is not yet over, and there can be no safe relaxation of all efforts, both state and national, until frost has made its appearance. ‘The chances that the dread experiences of 1878 will be even in a minor measure repeated are now apparently slight. That year was marked by one of the worst vis- itations of deadly disease that this country ever experienced, and is well within the memory cf most living persons as an ex: perience that sent terror to the hearts of all citizens, irrespective of their place of resi- dence.

A cool summeér is ending with a hot spell of greater severity and length than any other that has been locally endured this year. The present temperatures are the more unpleasant because of the expec- tagion that all people reasonably entertain that when the -calendar advances to this point there will be a seasonable drop in the mercury.
