As he approached, the child conyulsively
seized him by the throat, throwing. his arms
around his shoulders, and rendering it I'M
possible for Mr.. Hammers to use his arms,
besides almost sufocating him. Hammer:
told the boy to be quiet, turn him loose, and
he would easily save him but he could not
hear, or would not heed the words, and in
4 little while both went down, never to re-
appear alive. The father could not swim,
and being alone, could do nothing: The

virginia Election FL washington.


Special telegram to Dispatch.
WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE result of the
Virginia election excites disnlay in Radical
circles, and utterly prostrates parties here
from Mississippi and Texas who have been
endeavorthg to manipulate the Administra-
ton in favor of the extremists Of those
States. That the Administration is disposed
to float with the current is clearly indicated
by the fact that yesterday evening, after adj
vices from Virginia clearly indicated the
success Of Walker, Judge Dent, brother-in-
law of the President, was authoritatively
placed in nomination as n candidate for Go
vernon of the Conservative Republicans of
Mississippi.
1t is stated the President. is being inn
portuned by representative Republicans to
change several prominent appointments
made since his Inauguration, fears being en-
tertained that unless this is done disaster to
the party in Pennsylvania and Ohio will
certainly occur at the next elections.

TIE TEA TtiAr CONES TO THE UNITED
STArEs.-.Wc were. in . tea-house at Can
ton drinking such superfne tea as we
never tasted in the United States. We no.
ticed that large jars were placed under each
table, Tito which all the grounds were
tossed. Chinese do not, as already stated,
steep their tea in pot, but put it into your
cup, pour in hot water, covering the cup
to keep in the steam, allowing it to stand
about five minutes, draining it off and re-
filling. The second cup is considered the
best, and the third filing is very good. But
when the strength is exhausted the grounds
are thrown into the jars, taken out doors,
spread on cloths, dried; doctored, repacked,
and sent over to usl Tie average cost Of
tea in China is from fifteen to twenty cents
per pound, but duties, freights, insurance,
interest on capital, profits to importers and
middle men; swell it to prices which make
it an article of luxury. More poor tea is
drank in the United States than in amy other
land.-C drletOn's letter.

LONDON, July THE Daily Ne,rs says
editorially that the Irish Church bill will
leave the House of Lords of a very different
character from that with which it entered,

It is impossible for"the House OF Commons
to accept the amendments made by the
peers, and it will be their duty to restore
the bill to its original form. The Lords
have done their best to spoil the measure.
They have prudently abstained from reject

BURIAL GRoUSDs.-The French Academy
of Sciences has been considering the subject
of buria1=grotihds, and one Of its members,
NJ. Charles de Freycinet; recommends that
vaults composed Of stone or brick should
be abolished, as they have a tendency to in
tensify the nephitic exhalations. Ali collins
should be deposited in the earth, which, in
q short time, will absorb all the noxious
gases. Every battle-ground must be tho
roughly and thickly planted with: trees,
which purify the atmosphere by the vast
amount Of oxygen which they produce !;
and, finally, no new cemeteries should be
allowed to be opened within regulated
distance from any town or village.
