TIE sFRgAD OF THE SMALLPOX.

The smallpox IS spreading in Chicago in an
alarming way and the people there are be-
coming seriously apprehensive of an cpl
denic. L is evident that the precautions
adopted By the California State Board of
Health were not premature, and that in their
absence this State would have been exposed
to great danger of general infection. Chi.
clgo is talking Of qasrantining against New
York, but As there does not appear to be any
abnormal Increase Of the disease in the latter
city, sc should think New York ought to
quarantine against Chicago In fact, the ev-
idence al points to tie latter city as being
the fceus of eontagion, and until its au-
thorities exert themselves more actively to
oonEne the disease and to stamp it out, no re-
Taxation Of vigilance should be permitted at
our frontier.

THE NATIONAL REGATTA,
Prospects Of Having 1t Rowed on the Pc.
tOmae.

1t may now be regarded as a settled
fact that the next regatta of the National Amateur
Rowing Association will take place in this CITY on
the Potomac. Some time ago it was intimated by
the executive committee of the National Associa
ton that if it was dasired that the next regatta
should be held in this city, and the necessary in
ducementS as to expenses and transportation were
satisfactorily arranged, the committee was favor
ably inclined to selecting the Potomac for its next
races. Upon the strength of these representations
the Analostan Boat Club held meeting some weeks
ego and appointed a committee of three to confer
with similar committees to be appointed by the Po-
toElac and Clumbia Clubs, This joint committee of
nine have held several meetings and have mapped
out plan of operations which viii enable them to
meet all the requirements of the executive COM
mittee of the National Amateur Rowing Associa-
ton and secure the location of the next regatta
at Washington. This much is regarded as assured
from the recent correspondence between the COM
mittees. Already methods have been devised to
raise the necessary funds and it is expected that
the regatta viii take place about the 10th of Sen
tember next over course to be selected on the
Potomac. From letters received by the committee
it is evident that the selection of Washington
meets with the general approval of rowing
men all over the country. Assurances
have already been received that clubs from
Portland, Me-, Boston, New York, Philadelphia.
Baltimore Norfolk, Savannah, New Orleans. and
Galveston, IS well as from many of the cities on
the great lakes, viii be here.
]. is proposed that the regatta proper shall OCCUPY
three days, and efforts are now being made which
promise to be successful 10 induce Hanlan, Ross,
Plaisted and Kennedy TO select the same course
and time for their great double scull race for the
championship of the world, which, with other
sttractions, would fill out the week.
