The PROGRESS OF VAco1NATIoN.-On
the 18th of May, 1896, Jenner vaccinated
a boy, 8 years old, from the hand Of dai-
ry woman who had the true cowpock; the
boy went we'll through the experiment,
was inoculated for small pox in July, and
failed to take it. From this time forward
it was the custom to make the 18th of May,
day Of rejoicing in Prussia and elsewhere,
and to publish the annual results Of vacci.
nation. For many years the vaccinations
exceeded the births, showing that the peo
pie were aware of their danger, while many
remained unsecured. In Prussia, the deaths
from small pox had averaged 10000 an.
nually before vaccination was introduced,
and within twenty years they had sunk to
5000, though there had been large ac-
cession of new territory. Sweden and Den
mark, and some territories in Germany,
remained absolutely free from small pox
for twenty years after the practice Of vac
cination had been properly adopted. A
sudden change from the few preceding
years, when 100000 persons died annually
of smallpox in the world at large, and2lO,-
600 in Europe, and when every quarter
of a century saw 25,OO0,000 of human be-
ings carried off by the foulest Of distempers

Another Great Achievement.

The Treasury Department have advices
that the lighthouse supply vessel has been
seized in Galveston harbor by the Texan dis
unionists. This vessel (the Guthrie) is en-
ployed in supplying the different light-hous-
es with oil, wieks, and other stOres.
She sailed from New Bedford, Massachu-
setts, November s, 1860, with full cargo of
supplies for one year for all the lighthouses
and light-vessels between Amelia Island,
Georgia, aud the Rio Grande, Texas. The
master in charge of this vessel reached the
bay of Galveston, Texas, ON the 9th of March
instant, for the purpose of delivering the
years supply of oil. &C., to the Bolivar Point
and other lighthouses in that vicinity
While he was absent from the vessel,attending
to the delivery of the snpplies, the Guthrie
was boarded by man calling himself Capt.
Rogers, aud several men, accompanied by an
individual calling himself Gen. Sherman,
claiming to act by authority and under the
orders of the COMMITTEE of Safety at Gal
veston." These men got the vessel under
way and proceeded with her near the cutter,
where she was at last accounts detained TO
await further orders from Austin, Texas.
The Guthrie, it will be seen. was on a mis-
sion Of peace, mercy, humanity. and charity
filled with supplies of oil, &c, purchased
and paid for by the United States, to be dis
tribute6 TO the lights on the Southern coast,
TO prevent their extinction during the ensu
ing year, and without such supplies they
must at an early period be extinguished, and
thereby cause great loss of life and property
in the navigation Of that coast-Star.

Policy ofthe Border States.

Having steadfastly adhered to the doctrine
that civil war, or danger of constant coils
ion between the Border Free aud Slave
States, could only be averted by a peaceful
settlement inthc Union of our present troubles
aud that it was really the interest of the
Border States to maintain their present re-
lations with the free States on our border,
aud with the whole Union If possible, We
have deduced therefrom difference between
our condition and that of the Gulf States
Nothing that has occurred therefore. has
served to change or even shake the convic-
| ton, that we have interests in the Union that
are paramOunt-interests that the Cotton
| States have not; and that therefore we should
| not rashly imperil them through any fancied
! identity of interest with the States that have
| left us for veal or woe, to work out our own
destiny as best we may. We have maintain
ed that it is neither our interest to go with
them, nor really essential to their interests
that We should We are glad, therefore, to
| ind so respectable journal in one of the
seeded States, as the MilledgevilIe (Ga) Re
cordeT, supporting the views we have advO-
Gated. Iu the issue of that journal of the
18th inst, We fluid the case thus strongly
stated, as follows: IF the line of the South
ern COnfederacy touched that of the Free
States, there being no law or treaty for the
rendition of fugitives from labor between
foreign P61gas, the mischief would be such,
practically, that collision of arms would
be unavoidable, unless the Slave States re-
ceded altogether from the claims on which
they insisted while in the Union, of having
their property returned TO them under the
plain bebest of the Constitution and the acts
OF Congress to carry in into effect. In the
simple matter of convenience and expedien-
cy, therefore, we believe that the Border
States will be of more advantage in their pres
ent position to the Southern COnfederacy,
wall Of defence against Northern aggression,
than If they were 10 become members of it,
with all their frontier exposed to fanatical
hatred and pillage. We should then have
to try an experiment which otherwise we
might be under the necessity of making with
the Free States, and which no amount of
wisdom or ValOr may contemplate with indif
ference. If slaves from the Border States are
stolen or enticed away by the abolitionists,
the game would become vastly interesting
in the absence of any stipulatious recOgniz-
ing slaves as property, which we have reason
to believe could never be obtained. Outrage
would follow outrage in rapid succession,
and on a scale of such magnitude that war
would be the only mode of redress"
Ought not this candid avowal, from
source entitled to credit, induce the people of
the Bsrder Slave States to pause, and make
every effort compatible Nth their honor (and we
would not have them do more) to avert the
catastrophe, before they rush into the vortex
of secession? This word with US, has a
deeper Specification than it can have in the
Gulf States. We trust that our people will
do nothing rashly.-Lyncibury VngiRian.

Ro1fe s. Saunders.

While we abhor the idea of Southern man
holding Office under Mr.. Lincoln and Can
not appreciate the taste which could suggest
the acceptance, much less the application to
the malignant assailants of our rights for an
office, we must say that Mr.. Saunders, in our
opinion, will make a faithful and diligent
public officer. Our personal intercourse
with him has been of the kindest character,
and we would have preferred to see some one
for whom we have less esteem in his unenvia-
BILE situation. As to any effort to prevent
him occupying the Office, the idea but exists
in the minds of those whuse tirnid apprehen-
sions have excited it. Some one had to hold
the Off -. as the Senior of this paper had full
ly determined to cease his official connection
with the rotten power at Washington the
very moment the obligations of his official
bond relieved hin.-Aemphis Avalanche.

The Purpose OF the Secession Party

To make easy the minds of the Unionists
in Memphis and throughout the State-a
doubt about the purpose of our party being
suggested in a communication in the BuLlain
of yesterday-we say that we will run can
didate for every office, from Mayor up to
Governor We do not intend to let the most
remote opportunity pass which will afford US
a chance of fighting them. We will have a
regular party organization in Memphis, in
Shelby county, in fact, all over the State.
We will never give up the fight until we
drive them from the last place of honor and
trust in Tennessee. If they whip US we will
try them again, and if whipped again we
will try them another time, and so on with
out end. Ours is a war until Tennessee Sc
cedes, or of lifetime if she does not. We
cannot strike hands with Union-howler up
on any issue involving even the most inf
Intestinal extent of political power.-Memph,s

Tue Yoke WIFE.-The marriage of mid
die age is companionship; the second mar
rage of maturity, perhaps the reparation OF
q mistake, perhaps the pallid transcript of
buried joy; but the marriage Of the loving
young is by the direct blessing of God, and
is the realization of the complete ideal of
q lovely human life. Let those who have
found that pearl, hold it fast and keep il
safe Within the doors where love dwells no
evil thing should enter; aud the loving
bride who would be the happy wife must
specially guard against her own impotence
and despair when the lover is merging into
the husband, the fatterer into the friend.
These pretty little reflections aud sentiments
