Tien the door was parilaily opened and there stood old John Larper leauing on acrutcy, in his drawers and stockiag teet, wits a rough over- Coat thrown over him, He appeared very feeble, I told hia whol was, an ho invited me into the house, and at once vrizatened up and commenced talking of cho jast summer's racing Campaign. He Was full of excuses ior the deteat oi Longieliow at Saratoga by Helmboid, the principal one wemg that he bast held the latter horse so Hyhtiy that he did not think it worth while giving Longtel- low any work at all, ag he supposed him capable of beating Helmbold at any tino, at any distance and under any circumstances.

The alarming extent of the dreaded and loathe some smalipox in New York within the past two weeks, and silocking account of the ravages of that fell modern leprosy in the City of Brotherly Love, has, very naturally, awakened an echo of fear in the heart of the community iv the City of Churches, This was apparent yesterday upon every side where the subject of health was broached, It is true that THE SMALLPOX ITAS BEEN LURKING abont Brookivn were since the spring of 1879, and that last winter it played sad havoc among the dea- izens of that region In the Easiern disirict knowa as Dutchtown. Duriug the winter hercalvan efforts were made by the health authorities, under tne lead- ership of Dr. Cochran, to eradicate tne digs iguring melacy from that section of the city by insil- tuthig & thogough system of quarantine, the free use Of disiafectaats and @ round ol vaceinuttous. ‘Those wuo were ailllicted were despatcied to the County Smallpox livspital at Flaioush as iast as they were found, and there, with the come mendable care and treatment accorded, It was ound twat the percentage of cures was very late. f we can only confine the disease to Du.catown,”” id the sanitary sentinels last winter, “we will bo ailrignt, and ‘have no tears of it becowing epr demic.” But it happeaed as the spring advauced upon witter—whicn season appears to favor the spread of that borribie contagion—that nests of #s.nalipox were discovered in the heart of the west- ern district.
