JEALoUsY.-The Petersburg Express has
a very excellent article upon the Jealousy
among the cities of Virginia. 1t deprecates
their hostilities and chickering's and contends
that they would be far more prosperous had
they combined in good faith to promote the
common interests of the State; forgetting as
they should have done their local interests,
or, rather, local prejudices, and helped along
the common cause of Improvement, not OPP
posing this or that scheme because it might
do some good to a sister city, there would
nave been great deal more for each and for
all, and every city of the tide water would
have been larger and more prosperous than
it is now. This is the truth. The policy and
the sentiment are both heartily approved, and
are such as the writer of this has for years
advocated

Death of Lieut.. Hanson.

Among the valuable lives which have lately
fallen in the South by that horrid scourge the
yellow fever, we are deeply panied to record
the name of Lieut.. John j. Hanson of the
IT, S. Navy. This promising and gallant
young officer was son of Mr. Isaac K.
Hanson, of Washington, and is the third and
last son whom that venerable gentleman has
given to his country and who has persisted in
the performance of his duty. Capt. Weight
man K f. Hanson, the eldest, died in conse.
quence of disease contracted in the Florida
war, where he was distinguished by his gal
lantry, talents and devotion to the service
and the flag. Capt. Charles Hanson, the Sc
cond brother, served with great distinction
In the Mexican war, was one of the first who
scaled the heights of Cerro Gordo, and fell
gallantly fighting at the battle of Contreras
And now the last of the brave brotherhood
has gone, having fallen before a more de.
structive enemy than the cannon, and in a
manner worthy of hero. While young
Hanson was at Pensacola, on his return from
Southern cruise, the U. s. schooner Vixen
to which he had been attached, came into
port with all her officers down with the fever
Young Hanson, voluntarily and from a sense
of duty to the service, went on board tho
J plague.ship and took command, devoting his
whole energies to the welfare Of the ,nf,.
tunate vessel and of her sick and dv;nc
crew. He has fallen a victim to the LOYALTY
and courage of noble nature, and in his
death, the Navy has lost one of its best Off
GERS, and the last spark of earthly hope ON
an old mans hearth has gone out. to be re.
Aindied, we trust, in brighter skies. Peace
70 the ashes of the brave!

ABEAUTIFuI VEssEL.-The clipper

IL Il >
Yacht s'E Z. BIodget," Capt. Edmund Taylor,
rived at this port Sunday evening week, from New
York, this being her trial trip. This vessel is
entire new model, the advantages of which
every other are, that she will carry more cargo and
sail faster according to her eustom-house measure
ment than any other vessel yet built Her model is
certainly very beautiful one, and constructed that
her cabin which is very commodious is all abaft of
the rudder head and her run is formed that even
when deep loaded she drags dead water after her.
and steers very easily in all kinds of weather.
On her passage out the ''E T. Blodgetn overlook
passed and run hull down some thirty fore and aft
schooners, among them the William Capes and J. M
Taylor said to be the fastest schooners sailing out of
the port of New York. notwithstanding the fact that
her sails and rigging new, and stretched to such
extent as to put them cut of order for sailing She
is owned by e. T. Blodget of New York and was
modelled and built at that port by Fisk Morton the
builders OF the American yacht "Truant," now at
Liverpool, which has never yet been out-sailed by
any Of the English yachts.
The '.E. T. Blodget' is to sail for the prize to be
given at the Wors Fair race" which is to test the
models OF vessels of all nations and is to come off in
October from the harbor of New York. twenty miles
to sea and back. Her dimensions are Length of
deck 14O feet; breadth of beam 30l feet; depth of
hold feet; length of keel 102; and spreads three
thousand five hundred yards of canvass
This vessel has been visited by large number of
citizens since her arrival in this port all of whom
speak in the highest terms of her fair proportions and
beautiful construction. Capt. Taylor is most cour
teous and aable gentleman, and will take pleasure in
showing her to those who possess any nautical curos
ty or taste.
