' These were suddenly set I upon by their fellow-townsmen, and for three J days beaten, wounded, plundered, driven out of their bouses, which were battered lo ruins, and the tenants forced to take refuge In the barracks, where, Instead of being defended, they were allowed again to be beat? en, and lor several' days left without I food. In these tumults heads were spilt open, arms broken, beards plucked out by the roots, and other atrocities committed. One of the sufferers defended bis house lor three days, hts four sons standing by him. He made them swear, tb at, should be fall, they would cou-1 tinue to fight. The bands surrouuuiug his bou-e were for a considerable time beld ac bay, but the defenders were at last compelled j to 'give way, as the villains Bet fire to the premises.

I The misery is dreadful, and help is needed im-1 mediate ly.. -A late letter from.Cbicigo condemns the I recklessness which Is displayed lo the rebuild? ing of the burnt district of that city. During I th?, recent severe cold weather tue work of buildlcg brick houses has gone on briskly, and bricklayers have been rep-atedly seen pursu? ing their labors with portable stoves at baud, lo enable them to warm their fingers, so that they could handle ihe trowel and lay the I bricks. The result of this dangerous, alacrity maybe that, under the rays ol' the spring sun, or even the wai m atmosphere ol a mild dav' the mortar will be sotiened and will ex? ude from the- crude preparation which, becoming d sintegrated, will have no more subsistence or cementing power than so much wi?t sand. The set'.liog of lie bricks, moreover, will expel the mortar from be? tween the bricks, apt! i-eame an I cracks mtiy bf? expVcted- Instances are mentioned 1 of the failing ortwo or three brick buildings, which, put np with mortar which was laid whence weather was too cold to permit of it with safety, toppled down during high winds, which sheok them apart before the mortar could gain consistency. The same corres? pondent says that the erection o? frame build? ings ls general. These buildings, or many of them, are intended to be permanent lu spite of contrary legal enactments. One of the princi? pal causes of this unwise baste in rebuilding the city during the winter mouths ls said to be j that the profits realized by builders on building contracts at this time are simply Immense. Bricks at $75 per thousand, and bricklayers' wages at $4 50 per day, are the lures which urge forward the work which may In the fu? ture be lound to have been precipitate and dangerous. AB lt 1B even now, New Tork Insurance companies are very chary of taking burnt-dlstrlct risks. The License Law.

Yellow Fever-Hs Origin and Pre? vention. The report of the Epecial committee ap? pointed by the Howard Association to sug? gest a definite plan for the prevention and eradication of yellow fever is a highly vain able contribution to a discussion which has been in progress well-nigh ever since the formation of this city. It was not to be ex? pected that any committee, however emi? nent, should oner a theory which all might accept as an entirely satisfactory solution of | an unusually difficult problem, but we un? dertake to say that the report ot Messrs. McCrady, Ea ven el and Panknin, now printed by the. Howard Association, will caqse no acerbity ot feeling, and, it sustained bj pub? lic sentiment, must lead to important and beneficial results. The report is BO plain in its statements os to be intelligible to the un? professional reader. It is calm and concili? atory in tone, and, above all, has the merit of making recommendations which are equally reasonable and necessary, whether tne theory of the committee os to the nature and origin of yellow fever be or be not adopted. Three different theories are advanced in relation to yellow fever poison : tbat lt is, "1, "an inorganic resultant of ferai anti ve de? composition ; or 2, a lifeless organic re? sultant of fermentive decomposition ; or 3, a ' living specific germ capable of multiplying "itself under favorable conditions to an un? known extent, and findiDg the necessary "conditions of its existence and production "io an atmosphere bot and damp, and per? vaded* with the material of fermentive de "compositioD."* The committee adopt the last theory as their basis; their plan embra? cing, efforts directed (1) to the destruction of the germ, and (2) to the removal of the conditions of its existence. And it mast be borne in mind that, since Fermentive De? composition is a fundamental condition under all three theories, the committee, by working under the Specific flferm theory, are providing for a possible element of truth in the otherB. There are two classes of germ- diseases: Parasitic germ diseases, like small-pox and scarlet fever, the poison germs of which find in the human body the normal conditions of their fructification and renewed develop? ment; and diseases which aie caused by germs, not parasitic io character, which merely act apon the human system as poi? sonous bernes or toadstools would act that is, being themselves destroyed while destroying Lheir victim. Such non-parasitic germs find their normal conditions of de? velopment in the earth or air. They may infest a whole district and yet give rise to no contagious diseases, since the germs, in an unimpaired condition, never poss out from the system they may have destroyed. Bat the disease, though not contagious, may be eminently infections. The atmos? pheric germs may be carried about in cloth? ing, in tracks, fcc, and where the atmos? pheric conditions are favorable they will im? mediately germinate and multiply. The committee thjnk that yellow fever belongs to the second-class of Germ Diseases-the non parasitic. Upon this hypothesis the isola? tion of the infected patients is absolutely useless, for here "the germs of disease are "to be sought, not in the patient, but in the "atmosphere io which he himself was poi? soned." All our efforts, therefore, Bhoald be directed : 1. To keeping these germs ont of our atmosphere. 2. To destroying them after they have appeared there. The committee, in their general discus? sion, take it as a fundamental fact that the most violent form of yellow fever "is killed "down by the frost and ice of winter.'' Wherever the winter's cold is allowed freely to penetrate, "the yellow fever poison is "cancelled," but where it does not penetrate th? germs may be preserved, and, when ex? posed to light and air, at a temperature be? tween 70 deg and 90 deg., will most proba? bly awaken to full vital activity and begin "to multiply and spread themselves over a "greater or les3 area." Experience proves th?t yellow fever hos its origin in a small focus, as the hold of a vessel or an opened drain, the extent and rapidity of its spread being dependent upon the condition of the atmosphere. Suppose tha'. the atmosphere, at a temperature of about 80 deg, be laden with moisture and innumerable particles of animal matter bordering on decomposition. If a small quantity of yellow fever poison germs be introduced, "it will at once begin "to multiply in geometrical ratio, and an "less checked by the temporary or local ab? sence of some one of the conditions, will at "first slowly, then more rapidly, extend itself "through the neighborhood in which it was "placed, until at laet, by a few sudden "bounds, it leavens the whole moss of the "air." Why is it, theD, that yellow fever sometimes appears in a particular locality, spreads for a certain time in the immediate vicinity, and then, as if it had encountered 3ome invieible barrier, suddenly ceases to spread and thereafter continues to rage only within those limits? The committee answer that "it cannot pa33 beyond that point or "line at which the conditions of its own self "multiplication cease." These conditions are a certain range of high temperature, a hu-1 mid or seaboard atmosphere, and air ?more or less saturated with organ iq particles de? rived from animal life, held as it were in solution. Ii any one of these condi? tions be absent, its absence alone would probably constitute such an invisible barrier as is described. The committee illustrate this point by the course ot the fever in 1827. Sporadic cases ol fever are attributed by the committee to visita to the locality in which fever germs have been preserved or intro? duced; or, in winter, to the preservation of the germs in apartments never penetrated by the winter's cold, which germ3 would be? come active when the conditions were favo? rable. Upon 4he vexed question whether yellow fever is or is not a native of Charleston, the committee are very emphatic. The history of the city demonstrates the two following propositions: 1. That the germs of yellow fever can be in? troduced into the city from without, and that all our most violent epidemics of this fatal disease have been due to such introduction. 2. That sporadic cases of yellow fever occur almost every summer, and occasionally light epidemics like the present, or epidemics of lever such as "breakbone," or dengue, having strong affinities v> iib yellow fever, pervade the city, when it seems cert alu that no affect? ed air nae been Introduced from without. These propositions have been the basis of distinct and antagonistic views of the origin of yellow fever. The true theory mnst equal? ly account for both sets of facts, and tbe .committee submit their theory in a series of propositions, the first of wbicb is that yel? low fever "is nola native growth oj the City of Charleston. " TheBe propositions appear to us to bear on their face the evidence of their soundness. The committee support their views, wu may add, by illustrations drawn from the epidemic of 1864, and the meas measures successfully adopted for the pro? tection ef the unacclimated Federal prison? ers. The committee, therefore, say: L We must prevent the introduction of yel? low lever geimB by rigid enforcement of quar? antine. 2. We must use every possible means of de? stroying those germs which have already been introduced, and 'may yet be lurking tn unsuspected places. 3. We must eliminate all sources of putre? faction and fermentation, as these processes going on in a crowded city will certainly pro? duce sickness of some kind, and furnish one of the necessary conditions lor the evolution of such yellow fever germs as may still exist, or may hereafter be Introduced from the tropics. The committee make some valuable sug? gestions on the subject of quarantine, and the application of artificially produced cold to vessels and bouses. They recommend that an interdict be placed upon all meddling with Oie mud of drains and sinks between Hie months of May and November; for they believe that the yellow fever of last year was literally dug np out of tbe drains opened in June. Tbe committee give other instances in which a like cause has produced similar effects. They submit some pregnant sugges? tions io regard to drainage, and the value of an abundant supply of pure water, and Tay down two rules- of paramount importance: 1. No surface breaklog ol any kind should be permitted in any part of the eily, whether In public streets or ptivate lots, during sum? mer. 2. While, on the contrary, Bil surface-break? ing In the depths of winter is absolutely bene? ficial, by destroy!ag such diseased germs as may be hidden in lue earth. Upon the subject of disinfectants and their use the report of the committee is especially clear and precise. They recommend tbe use of a particular class of disinfectants, show their value, and finally urge the establish? ment and maintenance of a sanitary police, "which Bbould be appointed by the City ' Government, and the duties of which "should be defined by proper ordinances, "which would embrace tbe systematic in? spection and thorough cleansing and dis "infecting of all drains, privies, <fcc. Under "this head should be embraced the examina "lion of all unpaved streets, alleys, &c, in "reference to their proper drainage, also "the examination and proper reconstruc? tion of all surface drains, so that no water "should remain to become stagnant "nuder the influence of the rays of tbe son. "Under the supervision of this police, all "faecal matter and other tilth should be re "moved during the winter, and, after their "removal, such disinfectants should be ap *'plied as may hereafter be determined "upon : likewise the cleaning of all drains "should be restricted absolutely io the winter* "months, when the cold weather prevents "the rapid decomposition of the accumu? lated filth ; and the free use of disinfectants "is recommended to be begun with at this "time and continued on systematically at "stated intervals." -LoDg as this article may appear it gives but a poor idea of tbe fullness and thorough? ness of the report before us. The subject is one of paramount importance to the city, and we hope that steps will be taken to carry the recommendations of tbe commit? tee into practical effect. They have done their part, and have done it well. The city mast do the rest. ittneical Books. QLIVEB DITSON & CO. 'S STANDARD MUSICAL WORKS.
