EDITORIAL DEATHS.

The Baltimore Patriot In wrappin. up poor
Blair of,he Globe in his rinaing sheet. Goes not
forget to entwine the cypress around the bier of
that rare genius, John Jones, who MKmiaed the
Household of the accident during the past four
years, and vainly gined hmselfa "fned fact"
for four more to come. "Those 4shom the Gods
lore, die youag"-so reasoned John, and thus he
died. Give ear to the Patriot, and all "ye who
have teaIs to shed, prepare To shed them now, -
for "meek PHYS tendere., child" i. dead. Thus
discourses the Patriot:-
The Madisonian has also ceased to be.
1t died with the Globe. Hereafter the
Madisonian that paS is to be called "The
u. S. Journal" There is a fitness in
this. None but John Jones could have
sustained the character ofthe Madisonian
as it was, and It's publication properly
ceased when the light that Ilumined it
went out.
We console ourselves Tor the loss of the
Tyler organ, by fancyiug tina, here and
there we see the ghost of John Jones in
the new paper. But the spirit OF that
"rare journal" is wanting. There is John
Jones in ii, but il is not the Ering man.
Even now we miss his verdaucy how
shall we regret bis loss when the summer
soIs,ice takes from nature the freshness
and greenness which ever were seen in
this paragon of journalists? But we must
bear his loss as we do that of the Virginia
election, with hope that he may not be
altogether gone.
We see tine new editors OF the Madiso-
nion--we should say the U. S. Journal
do rot like our lamentations over the loss
Of John Jones. Are they so hard hearted
as not 10 be willing to allow US to grieve
over what is not loss TO US alone, but
general calamity They surely do not
know what the press has suffered in losing
John Jones, or they would join 10 our sor.
rows. Or do they vainly think they may
supply his plscel They attempt it-but
they fail. For they mistake Johns char
acter. He was anlnnocent-th they are not
altogether. He was the head, the very
petsoni6cation of a class Of wrters--the
verdants. He was the man, who wrung
from an opponent Philadelphia Penn,
sylvanian--tho reluctant compliment, ,ha.
he was the "timothy and clover of the
otherwise rugged field of editorial life
He il was whose loss the National Intell-
gencer greved over as "Meek PHYS ten
derest child" But why endeavor to emu
merate all the striking virtues of the de-
parted
Take him for all and all.
We shell not look upon his Ike again.
And can his successors hope 10 be all he
wasl-Vain-van men. The odor ofthe
Madisonan editor may remain around
them, hu, his peculiar sweetness is with
drawn-we fear--soreyer.

AN ENGLIsHMAa's OPINION OF OUR
NAvY.-A shrswed writer in the London
Unted Service Journal, says, 'there is
mo doubt that we(,he English) have three
powerful rivals IN France, Russia and the
United States; but of these three, the
Americans are the most important ones
on account Of their origin, their courage,
and their even greater enterprise ard ac-
tiv:ty than our own" The writer then
proceeds to show that our navy, though
numerically inferior to that of France,
aud even 10 that Of Russia, is iptrinslcal-
ly superior TO either, and contains the
germ ola great and powerful feet. We
have the raw material. the wolkmen, and

THE HAPPINESS OF HOME.

During the recent term Of our Circuit Court,
we were passing along the street, and remark
from a victim to our abominabe Jury system fell
upon our ears, which seemed to come from the
very bottom Of his heart, and was so full Of sim
plieity and beauty that we cannot refrain from
making it the subject of remark or two. A
town friend seemed TO be insisting upon the Juror
whose voice iii being dark we could not distinguish

main with him all ngh--the reply was, Il thank

lions to deputy pos,maslers under the new
post Office law, which goes into operation
on the irs, of July next. The following
method is therefore substituted, by the
Postmaster General, as provision for
the transmission Of money, much preiera.
BILE to that now in use.

VIRGINIA rLxcrroNs.

We nave al last received The Official returns from
Hampshire County, which we snaex below. Il
will be perceived that Mr.. Sloan's msiority over

have secured his election D." Certainly they do not
live under hiH and don't take the papers" and
ought to have known the Candidatesf And worse
and worse is the tale told on the Wings Of Hsmp-
shire by the Romney Intelligencer. That paper
says
Well, we are beaten, but not dismay-
ed. We are beaten handsomely, deh-
nitely-yet, clearly from the inexcusable
conduct of Wings not exercising their
rights. In looking over the vote given at
the Presidential Election last fall, we find
that Mr.. Polk carried the county by nane
teen votes-Mr. Polk receiving GOA and
MIR. Clay 675. AT the recent election,
Mr.. Sloan, the loco candidate for the
State Senate, received 654 votes forty
less than Mr.. Polk received last fall
while on the other hand, the highest
Wing candidate received but 49f, inclu.
ding foreign vote Of about SIS, SO that
t,co hundred and seuenty-three vigilani,
faithful, and patriotic Wings in the good
old county OF Hampshire, refused to exer.

election. Out we say upon such Wings.

Rail- ROAD lRoN.-A gentleman famil.
lar with the affairs of The Mount Savage
Railroad Iron Works in Allegheny Coun.
~, Md, has furnished the editors of the N.
Y. Tribuae with the following facts:
L. The Company has supplied bv con-
tract l 900 tons for the Fall River Rail-
road, at $50 per ton, delivered in New
England;
.. Since the recent extraordinary rise
Of Iron, it has entered upon new contracts
at $50 per ton, instead of sos, as the
Morning News has it;
3. /! lsnow turning out 100 tons ofRatl-
road Bars per day, and is putting up two
new Blast Furnaces and an immense Blow
ing Engine, which wi! te completed in
August from which time it will be prepa-
red to turn out 300 tons per day, or a, the
rate of 10000 tons per annum;
A. 1t is ready to make contracts TO de-
liver any quantity Of Bars ten per cent.
cheaper than they can be obtained from
Europe under the present Tariff;
5. The English price Of Railroad Iron
at the latest cate was els los. or about
$50 at Liverpool, at WHICH price it would
cost $S7 80 to deliver it here under 20
per cent. duty.
The Tribune remarks:-
So much for the statements of the ger.
tleman who is acquainted with the affairs
ofihe Mount Savage Works. Let US here
empress our conviction that most of the
Railroad Iron laid down IN the Union
hereafter will be made here, and that, if
the Tariff is let alone, it will very rarely
be higher than if imported under a 90 per
cent. duty. Only let capitalists feel that
they may safely inves; in this business the
heavy capital needed to prosecute it prof,
ltably, and home competition will soon re-
duce the price to thelowest sum for which
II can be made without loss; and that, we
are confident, is as low as q reasonable
man could wish il.

The above shows how easily Mr.. Orrick could
have been elected and it is shame TO the Distric,
that he is defeated Will the Wing party ever
learn the value of vote Shame, shame, skarae
that so worthy man and so acceptable Candi-

by the inactivity, carelessnsss and neglect of his
own party. We give JOY (!D to those who caused
his defeat.

which it will be seen that Bedinget is elected by

CITY OF BALTIMORE.

We are pleased to find the City of Baltimore
still rapidly increasing in wealth and population.
She deserves prosperity has earned it by years
of toll and sacrifice and hope live to see the

ciated and rewarded. The following extract gives
gratifying account Of her present fourshing con.
dtion We quote from the Stock and Money Re-
view of the American of May 2d:-
Money is of increased inquiry at Bank,
The demand is fully equal to the supply,
and no disposition exists there 10 enlarge
the discount lines, already sufficiently ex.
tended in view Of the unsettled condition
of our political relations. The activity
in the moneyed circles, however, is we
think, legitimate and wholesome, called
for by the ordinary business of the sea.
son, and not by speculation. True, the
spirit Of Improvement is abroad. Vacant
lots are filing. and new warehouses and
dwellings are fast reared IN all parts of
the city. But all appear to be required
by the wants Of growing community,
and the private capita of the builder en-
ters chiefly into the operations. The
spring business is understood to have been
better among all the commercial interests
than for some years past.

TRIAL. FOR PIRACY,

The Baltimore papers contain the report of the
trial Of Jason S. Pendeton, of the brig Montevdeo
in the Circuit Court Of the u States at Baltimore,
charged with piracy in being engaged in the Stare
trade on the coast of Africa. The evidence clear.
ly establishes the fact that the vessel was engaged
in the slave trade, but the Court (Chief Justice
fancy presiding) instructed the jury that. in order
to conrct the accused upon the charge alledged
against him, there must be evidence to show that
he was on board the vessel at the time Of the con
fnement Of the slaves, aiding and abeting in such
confinement, and that no such evidence bad been
offered Under these instructions The Jury found
a verdict of not guthy, without leaving the box.

The ARMY AND NAvY.-At a certain
supper party, some gentleman gave-"The
army and navy" This was followed by
total silence. There was no epauletted
soldier, or lieutenant with gold "swabs"
to respond for the tent or quarter deck.
Matters were in this position, when a
certain M. d. rose and glanced around
the sumptuous table. "Gen.Iemen," said
lie, "the health Of the army and navy has
