The yellow fever at Wilmington, N. C.

There were five deaths in Wilmington, N. C., on Friday, of yellow fever. No new cases were reported up to noon Saturday. The Major of Charleston, S. C., has sent eight nurses there, and Gen. Beauregard has allowed Dr. Choppin, a physician on his staff, to volunteer for the assistance of the sufferers. An acclimated operator is badly needed to re-open the telegraph office there, and should be supplied. There has been no fever before in Wilmington since 1821.
