The SPIRIT OF THE CAMPNGN-HENRY A.
WsE.-Among q mass of correspondence ex.
hibiting the spirit of the campaign, we publish
a letter from Norfolk, Va, giving the views of
Governor Wise. After long silence the
Governor has recovered the use of his speech,
and though he has not spoken himself in public,
he has delivered his sentiments in private to
bis son, and authorized him to pronounce in
favor of Breckenridge and Lane. 1t would have
been more satisfactory if Mr.. Wise had spoken
himself; but as iAness prevented him, he did
the next best thing that could be done under
the circumstances. The position of affairs
ip the South, the divided and distracted state
of the democratic party, the fear that If two
democratic tickets should be run in Virginia
and other Southern States Bell and Everett
would obtain the electoral vote of those States,
has hitherto paralyzed the tongue and pen Of
Wise, who has been always so prompt in his
decisions and so swift in action. or all the
Southern leaders be is the most quick in per-
ception and the most rapid in his political COM
binations. His silence was, therefore, ominous
and significant. He speaks out at last; but,
strange to say just as he does, the news from
North Carolina speaks in q different tone. If
the State should 60 as the returns from the elec-
ton 90 far indicate, 1t is Of very small conse-
quence what Governor Wise says or does, for
as North Carolina goes the greater part Of the
South will probably 60 If the election in that
State should be in favor Of the Union party, it
is but the prelude to the success of the Presi-
Dental Bell ticket in November next, and the
evidence Of the strength of the current of revo.
luton which cannot be stemmed by Wise or any
of the other democratic leaders in the South.

Wards Lsiand, In the midst of an indiscriminate
number Of patients and that the Vice President
Of the Emigration Board, Captain Crabtree, has
just fallen q victim to that insidious disease,
which he caught in the discharge of his duty
while visiting vessels infected with it. Ship
fever is malignant and very often q contagious
disease, as 1t proved in the case of Captain
Crabtree; and 1t has been known to become the
origin of serious epidemics before now. Wards
Island is not the proper place for ship fever
patients; they should be isolated in the floating
hospital, or somewhere apart from patients
suffering from other diseases But what Is to
be done if . there is no money to sup
port a quarantine hospital of any kind
The Board of Health should take some
action in this matter, and Immediately,
too. This is no season of the year to triae with
contagious disease in any form; and if the
Board of Health have no funds to appropriate
to the purpose, the merchants and citizens gene
rally should take the matter in their own hands,
and raise money enough to keep the floating
hospital in operation during the hot months of
summer.

REcErTroN OF THE PRINCE OF WALES IN New
YoRx-The following piece of intelligence has
been sent to us for publication by some Of the
parties concerned
ments with the Ielands, OF the Metropolitan HOTEL to
give grand reception and ball In honor OF the Prince OF
Wales II will surpass the great ball recently given by
the city authorities 70 the Japanese Embassy The com
pany will be the most seec. aud elegant ever assembled
In the United States.
Now, we should like to know why ball to
the Prince should be given by the foreign
residents exclusively, or why any invidi-
GUS distinction should be made between
natives and foreigners. Do handful
of English residents mean to monopo-
lie the Prince among themselves on the
ground that they are "most select and ele-
CANT ?" What right have they to anticipate the
action of the people of New York, or to exclude
those who are as respectable as themselves
from participating in the compliment. Let us
have no such narrow affair as this. 1t would
be mean in the Last degree to the American
ladies, who know how to appreciate the distin-
guished stranger as well as English women or
any other women in the world.
The proposition to make the ball emanate
from foreign residents in the city is, moreover,
a reflection upon American hospitality which
is entirely uncalled for.
