Communirntions. Correspondence of the Ledger. C. F. Cor.LF.OE, April 2<>, 1852. p Mr. Editor:?I feel disposed to make once d more a brief communication to your paper. ;i A child,you know, must learn to walk before t he can run, Ac. I have not been accustom- j h cd to write for Journals or public scrutiny, j ? therefore 1 hope you will exculpate me for e the illegible and economical manner in which I t I addressed you formerly. It is not with i s the view of interesting you or the many hap- j t py recipients of the ledger, that actuntesme 1 to lift my feeble pen again but rather in jus- < tification of an assertion 1 made in my last, 1 also in vindication of the Carolina F. College, i etc. . I asserted in my first, "That this 1 is no doubt a healthy locality," not long of- i ter said declaration found its way to light, we were visited by sore affliction. One of those pestilences or epidemics to which the most of the world has been exposed since the early part of the 14th century, down to j the present period of time; Vidilicit Influenza,epidemie catarrh,&c., indeed it has been denominated variously according to the place in which said malady has occurred, assuming aomfttimcs a forraadable character, again very mild and raanagable. 'Mr. Editor, I know yours is not a medical Jotfrnal, therefore in touching upon this subject, it is not expected that I will go on and give in detail symptoms, causes, &c? of this epidemic, were it admissible. I will simnlv state that the cause is involved in great obscurity ; but as has been snid, it prevails in all countries, at all seasons, and under all conditions of the atmosphere, at one time traversing the valleys, large water courses, end malarious districts; again spreading through the hilly, mountainous, and most salubrious climes; and we being situate in one of those healthy locations, as we conceive, and not superior to our fellowmen in point of morality, we, in common with our fellow-mortals of this and other nations.were visited in the way mentioned bv the afflicting hand of kind Providence. Though we have been visit ed by this malignant epidemic, only three deaths have oceurred.f wo of these cases were young females of delicate constitutions -?the other one was just recovering from an attack of measles: which disease.unfortunately, was introduced amongst us bv a pupil of this Institution, from So. Ca. It is true the visitation gave a mightv shock to all concerned, causing considerable derangement in the Collegiate affliirs for a short time ; but reaction is fast taking place, and soon all thing will present that systematic and harmonious order as heretofore. There has not been a new case reported in College in some two week"- neither Inflnenza nor Measles.? The young ladies are nearly all well, resuming their studies and presenting that hilarity. freshness, &e., which they have wont to 1 do. Several of the gentleman from South Cnr. olina who visited the College recently, or jaince the raging of the epidemic, with the intcntion of taking their daughter* Komo rotarned witknut thciu, being convinced of the truthfulness of my assertion,?" This is no doubt a healthy locality." I have not, unco my sojourn here, been able to discover any local cause of disease whatever; and the old citizens say there never has been a case of Bilious-remittiat fever here; indeed those who have been raised hard-by, selected this as their summer location, a place where they could live with impunity at all seasons, and under all circumstances, as far as local causes of disease arc concerned. This site is pretty well encompassed by a fine growing country, and free from the contaminating influences of the hearest water courses. The idea, no doubt,would strike you forcibly on visiting this place. u This is no doubt a healthy locality," and I know it is a pleasant one, or at least, has been so to me, and would have been much more so, but for the unfortunate and peculiar condition of the atmosphere, and the frequent vicissitudes of the season, to which we ascribe, with authors, the cause of the Influenza of which wo have been speaking. In concluding iny rem>rt? !>:- ? 1"?? * ?. .. vii niin suujcci, i win remara that this epidemic corresponds very well with one which provailed in the healthy village of Monroe, Union Co., in the fall of 1850, and in reading a communication ?>f an M. D. of said village (1850?*51) to the Charleston Medical Journal, I was struck with the similitude of the two epidemics ; the brain in a few cases being the onus of tlio attack, seldom Attacking the substance of the lungs ; in the majority the irritation whs general or bronchil. I saw some forty cases the major part of which readily yield to treatment I will remark to all, look out the scourge has pret- j , ty we!' left us, but bereft is (\ F.

All have ' ?irupp<*u me sympathizing tear. 1 am sorry circumstances have rendered it aieceeanry for me to select a subject so gloomy as the one I ha' c had under consideration, in making my second address to your ( interesting paper.
