GEO. N. sANDERS-YANCEY AND THE VICE PRESIDENCY.
George N. Sanders has written letter to t he
Charleston Courier, explanatory of the cOnversa-
tion reported to have been held by him with Mr..
Yancey in relation to the Vice Presidency. Mr.. San
ders expresses his surprise that words playfuly
uttered in the midst of party of gentlemen at a
social gathering and quite payfully responded
to should have been so strangely misc0nstrued.-
He closes his letter by saying: | regret that any
Virginia gentleman should so overstep the line OF
social ethics as to make grave report, with the in
tention of injuring Mr.. Douglas politically, out of
the fragmentary words of a careless conversation
between others, of the scope and bearing of which
they were entirely ignorant, not being cognizant
OF its antecedents, thus making possibly necessary
this pubic explanation OF what as been astutety
misrepresented
The correspondent of the New Y ork Herald states
that rumor is rife in Washington that distn-
gushed Southern Statesman has been approached,
and has consented, certain conditions, to accept,
in the event of Lncolns election, the post of Sec
retary of State.
The congressional nominations in New York city
are exceedingly mixed. The Herald classifes
them under the head of "Tammany," ''Tammany
Irregular" "MoZart" fsBreckinridpe' HBell-
Everett" "Republican,'' 'Union,' and one "Min-
ute Man."

A MEDICAL OPINION UPON THE SCHOOL SESSION.
The following paragraph appears editorially in the
Medical and Surgical Reporter, Philadelphia, a
publication of established reputation in the profes
sion:
''In reference to the question now agitated,
whether one or two sessions should be held in the
public schools, of the daily papers appeals to
the medical profession to give decisive opinion
the subject. One session, with recess of half an
hour, giving the children opportunity to devote
the afternoon to bodily recreation and preparatory
study, is enough for all purposes every hour spent
in a second session only tends to cripple the chill
dren bodily and mentally"
