There were 80 deaths reported to the Board of Health for the twelve hours ending yesterday evening, at 6 o'clock; of these 50 were from yellow fever. MORTCRY.

The total number of interment reported to the Board of Health by the Sextons of the cemeteries during the week ending yesterday, was 580, of which number 358 died of yellow fever. These figures show an increase in total number of deaths from all causes over that of the preceding week of 115, and au increase from yellow fever of 109. The statistics still show that the mortality is much greater among the foreigners, or je0f though it has not failed to fatally attack some of our oldest citizens, and who have passed through numbers of epidemics. The figures also show that the mortality is still by far greater among the males than the females. Of the 520 that died from all causes last week, 357 were males.

It is also greater among the whites than the blacks, 457 of the deaths being whites. We will not attempt to conceal the fact that the epidemic is quite bad. Of course, it is nothing like the pestilence which swept this city in 1853, but it is bad enough. We know of no data from which to estimate the number of cases from the number of deaths, but are of opinion, from tfifl. At: be some regulation provided by law, if there is none, requiring all physicians to report the number of cases, as well as the number of deaths.

Such reports would be useful, giving a much better estimate of the extent and fatality of the disease, than the single report of deaths. In regard to the epidemic, we have the consolation that the disease has now not much longer to run. The Epidemic Asylum Death yellow fever made 1 St. Elizabeth's Destitution. a appearance in St.

Elizabeth's Asylum a few days ago, and al ready three of the sainted Sisterhood are numbered among the dead. All but two have been attacked, and some dozen or more from the orphans also. The two Sisters yet up and the few orphans old enouirh to be of any assistance are com pletely worn out from serving the sick, and unless there be speedy help from with out those sick must be in a great measure left unattended. Yesterday the priesta of the Fourth District, as we were informed, appealed earnestly to their congregrations in behalf of the asylum. Those ladies com petent to nurse are urged to come to the as in their power to alleviate the deplora ble condition of affairs.

It will be no news readers to be told that the afflicted Sisters and orphans are greatly in need of all such necessaries demanded by convalescents. Those who devote their lives to the temporal and eternal welfare of others, regardless of all distinctions, have irresistible claims upon the active benevolence of the community. And that benevolence should in this case, be it remembered, be prompt as well as active and unstinted.

A telegram from Galveston yesterday announced most unexpectedly the death from yellow fever of Gen. Griffin, who had but recently succeeded to the command of this department.

He had lost but a few dayg before his only child, and seems immediately to have contracted the disease of which he died. From the favorable accounts received of his condition Saturday last, hopes were entertained by his friends that he would recover. The telegram containing the intelligence of his death was entirely unexpected. Gen. Griffin was born in Ohio, and appointed to West Point from that State.

He graduated in 1847, and entered the service as 2d Lieutenant in the 4th Artillery, and was during the war promoted to Captain of the 5th Artillery. He served in the Army of Northern Virginia as Maj. Gen. of Volunteers and commanded a division in Warren's Corps. After the war in 1805 he was made Colonel of the 35th Infantry, a new regiment, and on March 13th, same year, received the brevet rank of Major General in the regular army, being assigned to duty in this department under that rank by the President.

He was placed in command of the District of Texas by Gen. Sheridan. Gen. Griffin as a soldier stood high in the estimation of his brother officers, and was about 43 years of age. A Busy Body.

There are few things more interesting to those who love to investigate the mysteries and the beauties of nature, and to whom an insect is not a thing to be crushed, but an object from which some knowledge may be gleaned, some lesson of patience and endurance learned, than the curious skill and wonderful rapidity with which a spider weaves his web, sets his snare for the unwary and silly insects that he instinctively knows are sure to fall a prey to his superior wisdom. We wore not a little suprised this morning at seeing in the open window of a street car one of these indefatigable little toilers weaving his silken circular net with as much apparent unconcern as though he were at work in some lady's garden of roses," and had nothing to fear from rude or careless hands that in an instant might sweep the results of his matchless skill ut With what a wondrous judgment he silver thread that formed the meshes of his exquisite but deceptive prison house, round and round from the centre in gradually widening circles he flew until his task was finished. Faultlessly faultless in every minute particular, airy and light it swung there in the morning breeze, a work any artist might well be proud of, but which no art could ever hope to equal. Seemingly well pleased with his performance, he at last retired to the centre of his swaying home, coiled himself up and watched, with his tiny but gleaming and piercing eyes. Soon an unwary fly dashed plump into this almost invisible net work, and, struggle as he would, his wings and feet were hopelessly fettered.

Quick as thought his enemy was upon him, and the peculiarly shrill buzzing ot the captive's wings as he struggled furiously to escape told of the deadly strife.
