it is thought, will present bill fixing the
paw of retired naval officers. There Is
much confusion in applying the law as 1t
now stands. To determine with certainty
what Congress intended the pay to be III
some important cases is almost impossible
The act of July Is. 1870, provides that after
! the thirtieth of June. 1870, the pay of all
officers on the retired list shall, when mot
on active duty, be equal to one-half OF the
highest pay prescribed by this act for ott-
! GERS on the active list whose grade cor
responds to the grade held by such retired
officers respectively at the time of such re-
! tirement." Second Controller Broadhead
saws that, under this act, one grade may
have several rates of duty and sea pay.
Paymasters surgeons and chief engineers
have five different rates of pay on sea duty,
VARYING from $1,000 to $1,000. according to
time they have been commissioned, and
some warrant officers have pay increasing
with length of service. Yet. paymaster
who has been commissioned for an hour Is
as much a paymaster and as fully IN pos
session of that grade as one who has been
commissioned for twenty years. and he
therefore gets ON retirement $2l0o year.

800 a year more than the shore DUTY pay
of the grade from which he may have been
promoted but few days.

=, A CURE FOE BLIEDSEss.-About O wear
ago Professor Nagel, of Tubingen, published
reports Of cases in which he had by the use
of strychnia restored sight to patients suffer-
ing from decay of vision or from blindness.
,Strychnia, as is well known, is deadly
poison, but it has wonderful effect in 'stimu-
Jating the nerves, and Professor Nagel found
that in diseases of the optic nerve, whether
functional or, osganic, its operation was alike
speedy and efficacious. The quantity used
is of course exceedingly small, one-fortietl of
a grain mixed with water, and this solution
is not to be swallowed, but is injected under
the skin Of one of the arms, which seems to
render the result the more remarkable. !.
This remedy has been tried by oculists
elsewhere with marked success and among
recent instances occurs naval captain, aged
fifty-twO, whose sight was so much impaired
that he required to be led about. Within q
few minutes after the injection, as above de.
scribed, the fog which darkened his eyes
became less dense. and an impression of
light was perceptible.y After three days use
of the remedy (an injection night and morn
ing) he could make out the furniture Of the
ward with sufficient 'clearness to guide him
self about without feeling ), and on the
fourth day of treatment, without help, he
succeeded at midday in walking alone
through the. thoroughfares of the city to
the. home OF his family, a mile from the
infrlnary." May we not hope from this ex-
pericnce that llenceforth the number Of cases
Of blindness will be largely diminished P

Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.
From Prince Edward.
PRINCE EDWARD COUNTY, Jul

PRINCE EDWARD COUNTY, June ID.
Editors DISPATCH: The past has been a
week of more than ordinary "stir" III TINS
community. Commencement 1t Hampden
sydney attracted q large number OF persons
10 College Hill to enjoy the intellectual re-
plsts there served up, and to meet again OLD
college chums and other friends, from many
Of whom they had been separated for one or
more wears. We had not the good fortune
L. bc present, but learn that Il most pleasant
and agreeable time was spent by those who
were IN attendance.
In Radical political circles, too, there has
been II very lively time during the week,
the adhcrcns OF the different congressional
candidates having been making thorough
canvass OF the county i'll that time. NJ faIhf-
Vile on "Wednesday night the Rev. Henry
Williams, Stowell. and others, addressed the
.ovcrci@nS from the courthouse steps, the
speaking. we learn, being kept up until nearly
day Thursday morning. Williams, we
are told, spoke with remarkable force and
intelligence, proving himself Il man of snpe-
sior intellectual calibre. A negro from your
city named Lester, or Lassltcr, also spoke
well.
Many Of the colored people, we think, are
diyposed to 20 for Williams, but it is pretty
evident their Radical trhite masters here
abouts will not allow them to do so. Ii IS
evident, too, that Stowell will get the noini-
nation. the purse of the revenue ring being
too long and heavy for anything that Porter,
Jenkins, or Williams, or all OF them com
bined, can bring against it. Money controls
the majority Of the votes in the fourth dis
tIici, and Stoweli and his underlings are not
sparing of its use.
Greeley stock continues firm-not that
Horace Is the first choice Of any of us, but
that we think we see in his election some
chance for that quiet and peace Which no
thing in General Grants past career can lead
lis 20 hope Tog. Our people care nothing
