One of the nurses employed during the
yellow fever time, at Norfolk and Ports
mouth, Mr.. James Arthur Boone, writes to
DR.. Gum, Health Officer at New York, that
"some of the same premonitory symptoms,
presaging a yellow fever in New York are
now apparent that presented themselves
formerly in Virginia. Trees aud vegeta-
ton have the same unhealthy appearance,
showing that the nitrogen is not freely I'M
bibed by flowers and plants, the consequence
being a general inhalation of malaria, or de-
composed animalcula. The flies also have
early begun to perish, and at period when
their services are most required IN nen'
tralizing putrescent deposits. The sudden
changes of the weather which have charac-
terized the present summer thus far are not
favorable to health"
DIR. Gum entertans no fears of New York
being visited the present season by yellow
fever. Although acknowledging the exls-
tence of the precursory intimations mention
ed by Mr. Boone in the above letter, he
thinks that the healthfulness of what are con
sidered yellow fever ports, leaves no ground
for apprehension in this regard.

The letter of Gov. Wise continues to be
the subject of much comment in the news
papers. and amongst the politicians. The
mode and manner in which it was surrepti-
tiously published are universally condemned;
but the New York papers, of the Tammany
Hall school, are not the less loud-mouthed in
condemnation of the letter itself. The New
York Express, however, without approving
the letter, says, sharply enough, that all this
'virtuous indignation" on the part Of those
in New York, who are making the most fuss,
'is the merest mOonshine in the world; may,
it is worse than the merest mooushne in the
world it is all gammon,--al hypocrisy,-
and nobody knows better that it is all gam
mon and all hypocrisy than the very persons
and presses that are day after day ding
donging it in our ears. Governor Wise has
written nothing. and recommended nothing
in the way of political intrigue, that Tam
many Hall, and the friends Of MIR. Dick'n-
son, and the friends of Mr.. Buchanan. have
not been regularly and Systematically prac-
Using for years and years" In truth, how
ever, the correspondence which brought out
the letter, shows that 1t was not an ofhcl"us
affair ON the part of Gov. Wise, but res
ponse to suggestions made to him.

ALEXANDRIA,:
SATURDAY MORNING. AUGUST IL. 1859.


The PEACE IN EUROPE has been the sub
ject of interesting debate in the British
House of Commons. We gave. yesterday,
an abstract of Lord John RusselPs remarks.
Lord Palmerston denied that England had
submitted any terms to Austria which were
less favorable than those obtained from
France. The government, at tho request "i
the French ambassador, had consented to be
the channel of communication. and had
submitted some terms to Austria, but ut the
same time distinctly stating they were the
views of the French government, and that
England gave no advice or opinion in the
matter 1t would be impossible for the gov
ernment to Join in the Congress until the re-
suit of the Zurich conference was known.
Mr.. Whiteside said that the government
had been made catspaw OF, and by trans
hitting terms to Austria, virtually assented
to them.
Mr.. Gladstone eulogized the conduct of
Sardinia, defended Lord Palmcrston from
the misrepresentation brought against him,
and bes0ught the House not to interfere
with the executive in whatever measures it
might find itself able to adopt for the inter
est of Italy and the permanent welfare of
Europe.
After speeches by other members the sub
ject was then dropped.
Lord Palmerston said that he did not
think it possible for England to enter into
an agreement with the other powers for the
arithmetical reduction of her military and
naval establishments, her position being to-
tally different.
Mr. Horsman moved resolution that the
expenses of completing the works of defence
be met by fund specially provided for the
purpose, independent of parliamentary votes.
He urged continued ornaments, and sugges-
ted a loan to complete the deiences.
Mr.. Sidney Herbert and Lord Palmerston
objected to the proposition, but both said
the government was fully alive to the impor-
lance of completing the defences of the
country, and promised vigorous action in the
matter.
Mr.. Golden deprecated this universal
alarm as an actual incentive to war, and
ridiculed the idea Of invasion by France.
He hoped that explanations would be enter,
ed into between the two governments. Al:
ter such explanations had been made and
tried, he would, if necessary, be ready t.
vote two hundred millions of pounds to pro-
vide navy superior to France. although he
showed that the English navy was greatly
superior now.
Mr. Horsman's motion was rejected by
o. majority.

that there was an accumulation of bu-

such circumstances Cor men of mode
