The Yankees in the South

The army of Butler is now in New Orleans, and other Yankee armies are at other pointe on the Southern coast. They think they have taken the country, but they will find before many months that the country has taken them. The yellow fever is a scourge even to the native population, living in comfortable houses, and having all the advantages of systematic habits and experienced medical attendance. What it will be among the dissipated and unacclimated hordes of the North, it needs no prophet to predict.
