FaVSR SPREADING UP THE RIVER.

From Biloxi and Pass Ubris- tian muny have fled in terror from the presence Of the disease, and now eight cas © reported at Barnes’ Hotel, Mississippi City, The diseaso bas also made its uppearace in the lower parishes of St, Ber- Qard and Plaquemine, where soveral deaths a: oc.

From the jast despatches of the Secretury of War it would appear thut he 1s not satisfied that avy tur- ther issue o! rations is required, the assurances of our city government and benevojent associations to the contrary notwithstuuding. It he continues in this view of the situation our relief associations will be forced to discontinue their labors and great dis- tress will most assarediy ensue. Even tu-day I notice the Mount Carmo: Asylum, the Mother Superior of which 1s desperately ill, begs for blankets aud pro- visions.

A collision occurred yesterday afternoon on the Southern Railroad about a quarter of a milo west of the Fresh Yond station between the pay master’s train of the Long Istand Ratiroad and the 1:35 P.

The train bound west left Fresh Pond on time, and consisted of an engine, smoking car and three passenger curs. At the time of the coiligon both trains were running at a high rate ol speed, the road ut the polut where they came together being a down grade golug wost, with a heavy curve, Tho locomotives came soxetber witha heavy crush, breaking botb the bumpers and pilots aud dane aging the curs, ‘The passengers im ihe westward bound train were (thrown from their seats and several of them badly cut and bruised, but none dangerously ivjured. Mr. Furman, Paymaster, was badiy tujured, ‘ihe wounded received every attcation irom tue residenis in tho Vicinity. ‘I'he callision is alleged to have been caused through the negiect of the telegraph operator at Frest Poud, who bad beon notified by the train de- Spatcher at Hunter’s Point that tue paymuster’s train was to follow the speciul und tor bum to hold the west- oru bouud train upiil it arrived at Presi Poad, This he failed todo, Tho track of the Southern road trom Fresh Pond to the Pot is a single one, east of Frosu Pond to Valley Siream the track is double, aud it 15 fortuoate that the eastern beund train was a tight one or the joss of life might have bevn great.
