THE TIMES, NEW! , BLOOMFIELD, TA.i SEPTEMBER 3, 1878.!
In a Doomed Village.
A letter written from "Memphis ou tlio
19 tli ult., given a .vivid description of the
condition of Grenada, The writer says
that twolve houses to the right and seeu
to tlioluH of his home were deserted, nud
foe boni s together not a person was Keen
stliing In a once happy neighborhood.
The groceries were closed, noarly all of
their proprietor having fallen victims to
the scourge. Being assured by physicians
that one who has recovered from yellow
fever is exempt from it ever afterward, the
writer tried to find his acquaintances and
assist thorn. He says:
" 1 saw at least ten of them dead, and
scores of them dying, or slowly awaiting
the crisis of the epidemic It was appal
ling to behold young and old women hud
dled together in some by-way, trembling,
praying, Bobbing, and casting despairiug
glances iu every direction, not knowing
whither to go. Mothers abandoned their
stricken children ; wives lied in terror from
their afflicted husbands. All the tics of
kindred seomed to be too frail to withstand
the pressure of fear and despair. The
loved oneB were loft in strange bands. Ne
groes and ncgresses who had had tho fever
proved very useful in some instances ; but
many of them took advantage of the situa
tion and asked exorbitant compensation for
their services ou account of the scarcity of
the Howard nurses. I saw as mauy as
three white nurses seized with the 'shakes'
and even vomiting while In the discharge
of their duties. Three days ago I saw a
raau loaning against a woodeu fence. 1
was about to pass on, thinking he was only
under tho influence of drink, but hearing
him moan and say, ' Oh, my God !' I ap
proached him and found that it was unmis
takably a case of yellow fever. I assisted
him to one of the tents noar the police
station, where I fear ho is to be among tho
list of victims. I do not believe that oue
thlrd of the cases of fever In its most ma
lignant type among the negroes have been
reported. I thought it my duty to report
to Dr. Becks, who, I suppose, would refer
the matter to the authorities, the many
horrible Bights I had witnessed in some of
the negro cabins, where, iu some cases,
whole families were prostrated by tho fever
eveu three iu a bed in two instauces,
and dying children sprawling on tho floor.
" I cannot omit mentioning the heoroism
of the Sisters of Charity. Their ministra
tions are tireless ; their tempers are never
ruined in the least by sleepless nights,
spare diet, and constantly attending to the
pettish demands of the sick and witnessing
the agonies of tho dying. Where they
sleep or eat I could not divine. I saw the
same faces around day and night, and
again at dawn. They carry medicines
about with them, work like bees in disin
luctiug houses, and have a magical faculty
of raking up clean linen and bedclothes in
out-of-the-way places. I saw several cler
gymen who were behaving iu a very disiu
teiested way, one of whom had not re
moved his clothes for three consecutive
nights. It is not possible to describe the
harrowing incidents of tho fatal pestilence
at Grenada. It is a blighted, forsaken,and
doomed town.

63T A young woman committed suicide
lately in Boulogne, France, who two years
ago shone conspicuously in the titled socie
ty of Berlin. She was the wife of the Rus
sian Secretary of Legation, to whom she
uaa Doen betrothed while in a I'aris con
vent school. They lived at great expense
and the woman rivalled the members of
the royal family in the costliness of her
jewels. As their resources diminished the
husband plunged into stock speculations,
and became a bankrupt. The wife, uuwil
ling to endure poverty, eloped with t
princely admirer, who in a short time
abandoned her. Deprived of resources, Bhe
gave herself up to dissipation in Paris, and
weary of life, finally shot herself. Her
husband, who belonged to the Society of
the Red Cross, was at Bucharest, in charge
of a hospital for soldiers.
