The insurrection in Cuba may be 01 much moment as affecting th interest and welfare of the United States in a direction to which public attention has not been heretofore directed. Surgeon General Wiman in speaking of this said : " The prospects for the coming season, in sanitary point ot view, are most en couraging. we shall probably go through the bummer without expert encing an epidemic of any sort. The only point of danger is Cuba. If Spai sends oooo unacclimated troops to that island, as the despatches indicate may be done, then we shall have to look out for yellow fever. It will in evitably strike among thtse raw troops and the fever will rage with unusual violence in Havana. From there to the United States is but a night's ride, and only the most rigorous precau tions and the exercise of the utmost vigilance will keep it out of our borders.
