A gentleman OF intelligence and observa-
ton informs us, from all the information he
can obtain from medical man, now having
many cases Of small pox under treatment,
that there is no house in the city, where gas
is burnt OF the ordinary consumption, In
which the disease has yet found lodgment.--
The gas, it is supposed, is a powerful disin-
fectant, and hence there is no contagion
within the circle Of it's influence. He says
that person burning the gas may contract
the disease abroad and take ii home with
him, but il will not be communicated to any
other member Of his family. II any Of our
readers have evidence to the contrary, we
should like to know it, as this 10 . subject
well deserving Of investigation.-ISt. Johns

The Tribune ont for Hates.

The New York Tribnne of the Goth pro-
nounces for Bates as the man for the hour.
Ii admits that if the Republican party is
strong enough to elect whom it will, then
Seward and Chase are the two men, above
oil others, who are entitled TO consideration
at Chicago. As they were the chief antag-
onists of Douglas Nebraska.Kansas swndle,
and as Douglas IL likely to be the candidate
OF the sham ID .accracy, the Tribune thinks
there would be eminent fitness in pitting
either Of them against him, especially as
''each Of them is, by original character, by
training, BY experience, emphatieally a
statesman of unquestionable ability, un-
sullied integrity, broad National views and
feslings, and thoroughly Republican princi-
Piles and aspirations"
Doubling that either Of them could carry
Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Illinois, or all
the Free States except Pennsylvania, -
though holding this view subject to the rep
reservations OF the delegates to Chicago
from the doubtful States,--it asks if there is
any reasonable hope of obtaining any consid-
cradle support for Banks, or Fessenden, or
Dayton, or Cameron, or Lincoln, all good
men and true, which will not be accorded
30 Chase or Seward?
Therefore it goes for Bates,--believing
that he will unite all the elements of OPPOSE
tion,-the old line Wings, the Tariff men,
the Americans, the Pacific Railroad men, the
River and Harber men, the genuine Repub-
iicans, and the gallant Emancipationists Of
Missouri.

As there 10 strong probability that the
bin introduced by Clark, Of Johnson, will

under DEGREES of court.
In the course of the discussion upon this
bin on the 18th, Clagstt enquired whether it
was intended to have retrospective opera

had gone as far as they thought proper. If
the court judged the provision to be conssi.
tutisnal, the act would have that effect

Mr.. Meargee, Of Philadelphia, testified be-
fore the Printing Investigating Committee
of the Senate, on Saturday, that he received
between four and FIVE hundred dollars from
MIR. Wendell in 1856, for tho purpose of or
ganizing third party in Pennsylvania pre-
ceding the Gubernatorial and the Presiden-
tial elections, which the Dem ocracy regarded
as imperstively necessary to secure the State
for MIR. Buchanan. That money was applied
to the object. This fact establishes that the
public money derived from printing and 9th
er jobs and assessments in departments, was
used to start the Fillmore movement on o
practical basis, which was afterwards rem
desed formidable by contributions from New
York, through which the side-door opera
tons were managed and Mr.. Fremont de-
feated. Movements are now on foot to re-
peat this game next fall, but with less pros
pect of success.-TN. Y. Tribune.

DEAR Carl havo always wondered
that, with all your enterprise in collecting
news from important points, you should not
have had "statedn correspondent at Fort
Mlaaiisoa. We have . great deal af COED
news here. Here, every week, on Friday
morning, with commendable regularity, that
delectable sheet, the Plain Dealer, makes
ts appearance. Mostly, in these parts, it
obtains the soubriquet Of SPAIN Killer"
from the fact, suppose, that if any fortu-
nate individual should chance TO Rul mirth-
provoking morceau in any quarter, and, by
Ills excessive exclamation thereat, should
give pain to his shaking sides, copy Of the
spain Killer" by it's sedatve stupidity,
would give instantaneous relief. Since DR..
Eads left his sureties to their fate and betook
himself, very appropriately, to the io,cer re-
gions-of Missouri, the editing Of this sheet
has been done by another Doctor, who has
brought great deal of enthusiasm to his
task. IL is evidently only short time since
he found out that he could put words into
any kind Of juxtaposition so that they would
resemble sentences. Like every school bow,
when he discovers that he can accomplish
this feat, he is hugely t;ckied, and every
week bis readers are instructed and delighted
with productions nearly up to the work Of
those wonderful essuys on s'Friendship,' y
"True Greatness" "Liberty," etc., etc., of
which we were oil guilty in our school bow
days, and about the grammar of which we
were so careful. unlike US, he OF the
spain Killer apparently has thorough
contempt for the memory Of Lindley Murray.
Evidently be has no intention Of disturbing
the residence or that female who Is said To
live at the bottom Of we'll. SIZE may STAY
there forever for all the use that he nigh,
havefor her. TO believe him, the whole Re.
publican party favored and inssigated the
invasion of Virginia, and consequently many
OF bis neighhors and some Of his brethren il
the church ought now TO be enjoying rope
Latterly he bas been proving himself th,
prince OF Know-Nothings bv continual az
sertions that Gov. Pennington was membe,
OF that unwise fraternity. These are onl,
specimen bricks. But, as Toots says, "it',
OF no consequence at ALL"

Supper was over, the boy want out,
lie passed through the yard and over the sty lie
The big dog harked a. he went along by,
And followed him nearly mile.
And he set him down on hickory log,
And whistled lively tune, this boy,
Which took the ear Of the barking dog,
And he wagged his tail for JOY
The beetle stopped from pinching the fly,
The toad la his hole stood still,
And the tom tit heard with tear in his eye,
And fishing worm in his bill;
And the grasshopper said, 'I know that air,
But cannot whistle ii so,--
The tune of the man with no hair on his head,
Where hair ever ought to grow"

CT More threats of Disupion are made by
John Letcher of Rufhn memory, the Cover
nor Of Virginia, because the late Executive
of Iowa would not break his neck to deliver
up one of the Harper's Ferry refugees, upon
insufficient papers, and because the new Gov
ernor Of that State, had the insolence not to
endorse the doctrines Of the Black Demo-
cratic school of politicians, upon the negro
slavery question. What child's play is this !
Does Governor Letcher imagine that the
public are such fools as not to see that this ia
a mere feeble continuation OF the desperate
game inaugurated by Secretary Floyd and
Gov. Wise, to make the latter President2
Wo learn, by the bye, that Messrs. Letch-
er and Wise have agreed to drive MIR. Bolts
out Of the State, but they have not yet deci-
ded upon the best plan Of effecting that m os.
difficult job. Perhaps they will wait till tie
