An Epidemic---What Was It?
"Winnsboro has bcon in a state of
wild excitoment for i few days over
the sudden appearance of an ill
wind or soimethirg olse that blew
disease into her midst, regardless
of her former well known reputa
tion for health. As everybody
knows, on Friday the mass ineet-ing
took place, and on the same night,
a concert was given in tho Thospian
Hall, which wits largely atteided.
During that entertainment ice
cream was served out pleatifuhlly.
On Saturday afternoon and nigit,
without any premonitory symptomins,
one person after another was seized
with a chill followod by a hot fever,
and in some cases with severo
nausea and pains, until by mid-day
on Sunday at least forty cases were
reported in town. As there had
been no chills and fever in the
place for several years, curiosity
was aroused as to the eaue. One
portion of the medical fraternity
attributed it simply to the effects
of malaria ; another, after inquiry,
suspected that somiething might
have beenl the matter with the ico
cream. Circumstaneos seemed to
corroborate thi5 theory, as every
sick person was said to have pa
taken of the cream, and several
persons wlo did ilot attend the
concert, but had refreshments sont
to their houses, were seized in the
same manier and at tho samie timei.,
while the only colored person in
towii reported sick was the ono who
had manipulated the ice oretiu
freezer. The attacks, though vio
lent, passed away with out seriou s
consequences, and by Monday after
noon most of the victims3 wore able
to appear on the streets. It was
subsequently ascertainodl that some
of the persons attacked had not
partaken of refreshnlents, and that
somec who had, had suffered no
harm. Reports were received from
one locality in the cuntry that
.seventoon eases syoreo developed on
the same night. Tho solution of
the matter still resta in doubt.
The chills have generally not put
in a reappearance, thus pointing to
the ice cream. On the other hand
tihe reports from other localities
support the malaria theory. It is
possible that the expoisure on
Friday and Friday night andl tihe
peculiar cond~ition of the climanntc,
and the) ice cream, whether poisoned
or not, all cmombineod to p)rodu cc
tihe strange effects. We have never
heard of sneh a swvooping attackc of
any disease in Winnsboro before.
Some parties thought thme yollowv
fever was coming, sure. But their
fears wero soon allayed. ~Never
theless the matter has been town
talk for several days. Thme epidemic
played havoc with our intended
report of Friday's proceedings.
When tile next toxico-malarial
aimoomn calls round, TnE Nsws AND

THEIL YELLAOW1 REIVRm SUFF.1ERERS.
Mefcsrs. Efditors :The appeal of
Congressman Evins, on Friday, the
18th instant, mumst have touched a
sympathetic chord in the hearts of
all whlo heard him, even then wvhen
joy and political enthusiasm ran
high, and we were met together to
stamp out forevQer Radicalism and
its attendant vices. How eloquent
ly did the christian statesman plead
for aid in behalf of the fever suffer
ejra who are daily falling victims to
the insatiate archer'. As we cast our
eyes over that vast assemblage of
neonle from all portions of Fiairfed
wo thought that if tho money fool
ishly thrown away for whiskoy had
only been eontribitedl to the retief
of our Rui'eilg neigl)ors, who
could tell wha1nt aminounit of good
might have been dlone, :nuIl I how
man1111Y l' .airts Iaidco glal. In Ihe
hett of t polit.ical campnigni wo u 1110
liablo to forget our duty to our
brethren of the South-west. In
deed, is not the S.outh coming far
short of her duity in this nmtter ?
Whilo the North is responding nobly
to tho call, whilo New York, Philt
dlphik and other cities ar seniding
thouisainds of dollars to relieve the
sick 1111d dying, what are.0 w of tle
South doing ? This is :I question
which collies ho to tiho hirts of
us all. Outside if Charliestoni, wi'hat
hats South Carolinai donle ? cons,
parativoly notLhing. True, wo "Ire
poor ; the universid cry of Imrd
times is hetid throughouit our boni
ers. Does this relieve its o(f aIll
reS'ponsibility ill the iniattr I. ? If
New York can -ive thoisands, can
not South Carolina give hutnlreds .
Let us do somiething. "If nothi"
more than purpose in thy power,
t-hy ilurpose im i sii is equal~ Io the
deed : who does the bs. his cir
