The Norfolk Aryus, speaking of the clergymen who have fied, says:—In alluding to the départure of four or five ministers, since the fever commence its ravages, we included at least two from the opposite side of the river. We take pleasure in stating that several preachers here are doing their duty faithfully. We cannot speak kuow- ingly in this respect with regard to Portsmouth; but there are some here whose diligent, unceasing’ and effectual pastoral visitations well deserve notice and com- mendation.

Some ofthem are ia regular attendance at the Hospital, and none of those mentioned manifest a desire to fly from the secu sner-praferriog to die in the faithful discharge of t! known duty, to leav- ing the suffering and aiiticted members of their flocks in the midst of diseave and death, without those words of comfort and Christiau consolation which it becomes them especially to imy art in the hour of extraordinary calami- ty and trial. Alluding to the distress prevailing in the city, the News #ays:—We learn from a reliable source that a good deal Of distress and suffering already exist among the poor of our city. Deprived of work and without means, many of that class who depend on their daily labor for support, and especially females who live by their needle, are ex: periencing the want of (ie necessaries of life. ‘As the Howard Association are perhaps sufficiently en- greed fu attending to the sick, ‘woul it not be woll to rm another benevolent association for the purpose of searching out aud relieving the worthy and moxtest port We aie sure that abundant means could be collected gom our citizens to minister to their wants.

The Herald bas ‘he foliowing tribute to the Howard As- rociation there:— This hilanthropic Association is Giaily allording relief to such of the sick poor who havo friends willing to nurse them at home, and daily send- fing to the hospital those who have neither friends nor money.

YELLOW FEVER IN LOUISIANA. Yellow fever has made i's appearance in the parish of St. Mary, 14., and several cases have proved fatal. From the New Orleans Commercial Bulletin we obtain the ful- ef tabular statement of the progress of the disease in New Orleans this season, as exhiblied by the weekly re- Yellow Fever Periods in New York and Other Places. 70 THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. ‘The yellow fever in 170% made its appearance in Phila- delphia for the first time in that year, in the last week in August, and continued till near the end of October. In 1705 the yellow fever commenced in New York about the middle cf August, and disappeared on the loth of October. ‘There were rumors of yellow fever in New York on the 13th of July, 1796; it set in with great virulence on the 22d of August, and continued till the 8th of Uetober. In 1797 the yellow fever commenced in Philadelphia on the 13th ot August, and was very severe on the 1th of September, 118 died in the two days previous. The yellow fever commenced in Boston, and also in Philadelphia, on the 8th of August, 1708, and in New ‘York on the 20th of that month. It continued in New York till the 5th of November. In 1799 there were a few cases of yellow fever on the 224 of July, but on the 29th it had disappeared. Bat on the 1th of Avgust it re-appeared, and on the 27th was suppored to be extinct. Un the 80th of that month Dr. Post said it was the most healthy season he had ever known. On the 4th of September it again re-appeared sand was very violent and ceased on the 18th of Uctober. ‘On the 10th of July, 1800, several persons died of drink Jing cold water—the temperature on that day was % deg. In September cases of yellow fever were reported, but Some of the physicians said i! was bilious fever. In 1801 the tever did mot make its appearance till the ‘20th of bo mal in New York, and continued till the 2th of Uctober ¥ ‘ In 1803 the first death by yellow fever was on the 30th of Joly. ‘The fever continued till the 27th of October. On the 16th of July, 1805, 0 person died of yellow fever in New York.

AUGUST 23, 1855. During the yellow Sree period of 106 the wind from the ner ceased blowing eighty-four (84) consecu. tive i, It will be seen by comparing the recent published ac- counts from Nort and Portsmouth, that on Friday, the 17th, they were visited by a thunder storm; that it the weather became cool, and the next day and the day following the new cases and the deaths by the pestilence were greatly increased. Such is the uniform testimony of my records of atmospheric changes compared with re- cords of cholera and yellow fever. Our records of ential visitations to cities are not only full but are in great detail, and as records of tem- penteoe are quadruple every sixty minutes, night and ', the means of comparison are ample and accurate. it appears by the details in the report of a Cay! num- ber of cases of yellow fever, that persons going from a healthy atmosphere into the infec! district. sicken in from five to six days afier the exposure. We have a re- cord of one case where a person returning to the city from the country in the time of yellow fever, sickened in three days. The germs of disease appear from the records bes be imbibed in heated terms, and ripen in the cool erms. ‘The heated terms and the cool terms, as we denominate two conditions of atmosphere existing but a few times in year. are found by our records to be immediately can- nected with the phenomena of the earth, and consequent atmospheric phenomena, which we may’ notice in detail of facts in some subsequent communication. BRGoKLYN Huicurs, Aug. 22, 1855. FE, MERIAM, * Cricket. MARRIED YS. SINGLE—LONG ISLAND CLUB. The maiden match of this new club was played on Tuesday, near the Throe-mile House, Bedford, married men winning, with four wickets to spare—a well contest- ed victory. The game was pretiily played throughout, Single men opened the ball with J. Hollely and Stevens. The latter began batting very nicely, but unfortunately got run out in both innings. Holden, who followed him, is a good cricketer; he bowls well and goes the pare. Labon commenced quite spirited. He dashed right into the ball, made two capital square leg hits for fou? each, and two straight drives for three cach. He topped the score of the day, and is a good, useful member, Baxter played very well, Applin and Youle showed some nice play; the latter made a capital catch and two good cuts for three each. Harry Russell kept up his name asa He bowled some nice balls, and batted in‘his usual happy style. He was well in when game was called, having made two excellent square hits for three each, and was carried off the ground by his fellow mem- bers. E. Tlollely, who faced him, was also well in, and these two men would no doubt have made a big score if time had not been called, KE. Russell is another good member, both at batting and bowling. He made a good hit for three, another for two, and a capital square drive for four. The ground wants a good deal of dress- ing. itis very prettily situated, and the row of trees make a nice Shady promenade. The ladies flocked up strong during the day, and made the ground look quite lively. The American flag and tic tents added mate- rially to the scene. The day pai off very delightfully, and everybody seemed highly pleased with the day’s amusements, Mr. Sams, of the New York Club, and Mr. W. Russell stood umpires. Mr. G. Marshall, scorer.

Aletter in the Savannah Courier announces the death of the Hon. Isaac H. Bronson, Judge of the United States Circuit Court for the northern district. of Florida, He died at Vilatka, of pulmonary consumption, in the night of the 1th instant. Judge Bronson was a native of the State of New York, from which he was for one or two terms a Representative in Congress. About the year 1859, sppeinted one of its Territorial Judgea, he removed to Florida, and has (with the exception of an interval of a few months) been connected with the judiciary of the United States ever since. At the time of his death he was probably forty-seven or forty-eight years of age. New York Cattle Market. Wenxespay, August 22, 1865. At Allerton’s, notwithstanding the superhuman efforts that have been’ made to sustain the market for beef cat- tlo under the increasing supplies, we are enabled to quote a slight decline thix week,—say 34 cent per Ib. on the average. ‘The number in market to-day we found to be 2,446, and for the week 2,466. These were mostly from Chio, though Mlinois, Indiana, New York and Kentucky Were’ fuirly represented. Little or no improvement was noticable in the quality of the cattle in the yards, the majority being what might be termed ordinary. ‘It is matter of surprise that most of the beeves recelved this summer have been in auch poor condition, when we con- sider tnat the pasturage in nearly all sections of the country has rarely ever been equalled and never excelled. Resides, the increased facilities for getting stock to mar- ket, one would think, would materially improve the con- dition of cattle brought from long distances. Butchora have bought cautionsly throughout the week, iu antici- pation of a still further reduction. But a limited num- ber, if any, it was thought, would be left over unsold. Prices ranged from $7 60 to $11 per 100 Ibs.; but you could not buy a decent steer below $9, and average was about $10 a $10 25. Cows and calves were slow, a3 com- arias, | Baer pared with last weck, and prices rather drooped.

Cows and calves, and veal calves, remain about the same as at the date of our last report. The market for sheep and lambs has heen rather variable through the week, the quality being, on the whole, rather poor.

ILL BE PUBLISHED, SATURDAY, SEPT. 1, JAPAN, AS IT WAS AND 1S, BY RICHARL HILDRETH, Author of ‘History of the Unived states,’? dec., &o. In this work, the fruit of great labor and research, Mr. Hildreth has embodied all the information concerning the: history and present staie of these remote islands which has come to the knowledge of the Western world. The Portuguese missionaries, and the Dutch, English and Spaniards who visited Japan between two and three cen- turies ago, are almost the only Kuropeans that have-ever penetrated the country; and ‘their accounts arefar more valuable than the impressions of later travellers who have merely visited the coasts. Since the expulsion of the Jesuits, about the year 1637, the exclusion of foreigners has been striet, excepting only « very limited intercourse with the Dutch. Many of these accounts appear in: Eng- lish, for the first time, in this volume. style of the book is very attractive, amd the de- scriptions of scenery, manners and customs, will render it entertaining to the general reader. ‘The student will be gind to see tha urate and re- liable map, full indexes, notes and a ry are added.
