BLAINE WRITES LETTER.
He Pats MahOne's Candidate the Back
and Wishes Him Success.

RICHMOND, Va, July 21.-Nfr. John :. Wise,
MahOne's nominee for Governor has re-
ceived the following letter from Mr.. James G.
Blaine:
Augusta, Ne, July IL 1855.
My DEAR Mr.. WISE: Pray accept my most
earnest ard cordial congratulations on your
nomination as Republican candidate for
Governor of Virginia. Aside from your en-
inent fitness politically, and your complete
equipment intellectually for the canvass
thus devOlYed upon you, / confess that there
are some personal features connected with
your candidacy which deeply enlist my in
terest. When / entered Washington College
lin my native county in Pennsylvania the
fame of your father who belonged to the pre-
ceding generation was still fresh and still
hOnOred a. one of the lost brilliant stu
dents who had ever left our Alma Mater. At
the same time and for many preceding years
your maternal grandfather, John Sergeant,
was the Pennsylvania honored before all
Others by the Wings of that State-Clarum
ct yenera lie nOmen. Many forms of as
sumed aristOcracy are justly Condemned,
and even derided, in popular government,
but aristocracy of talent is one whose parents
may be indefinitely multiplied with safety
to the Republic.
If Virginians retain their traditional re-
spect for good blood and brains they can
demonstrate it by giving their ballots for
John Sergeant Wise. Your canvass will,
am sure be brilliant, and believe il will be
victorious. Faithfully your friend,
JAMES G.. BLAINE.

IPhiladelnhia Public Ledger

tHnlladelpnl0 BuDllc Ledger.
Now here comes the surprising feature in
the agreement or contract made by the Navy
Department with Mr.. Roach. The contract
while STIMULATING in general terms that the
despatch boat shall be constructed in accord
ance with the acts of Congress above men,
toned including the ''sea speed of fifteen
knots" does not specifically express the
speed or power in any other way than by a
certain collective indicated horse power. "
and to this there is provision that if
upon the trial trip the engine should not de-
velop the full power called for by the con-
tract, and the failure should not be due to
defective workmanship or materials, the ship
should nevertheless be accepted by the gov
eminent.
That, we say, is most surprising feature
of the contract There is no warrant for il d,
it is contrary to the public interest; and 1t
overrides the law by agreeing TO take ship
with a sea speed of less than fifteen knots, if
no fault can be found with materials or
workmanship. Whether it was deliberately
designed TO be so or not that clause in the
contract was "heads | WIN and tails you
lose" arrangement Speed is the peculiar
virtue and value of dispatch boat or
clipper" to secure that quality TO at least
the degree stipulated was the object of the
law; if the vessel comes up to that speed and
is stiff and staunch enough to stand the
strain, she should be accepted by the Gov
eminent: if she does not, no such juggle
with the law as that alleged to be in the con
tract should be permitted to force the ship on
the Government or receive any cOuntenance.
1t is time the law should be made the su-
preme rule in all the departments; there is
troll the ship building agreements in the
Navy Department, where 50 MANY millions OF
money have been spent for so little 10 show
in the way of valuable results.

A FANCY FROM FoNrANELLE.

The Rose in the garden slipped her bud,
And she laughed in the pride of her youthful
blood,
As she thought OF the Gardener standing by
Tie Is Old-sO old And he soon Will die,''
The fun Rose waxed in the warm June air,
And she spread, and spread, till her heart lay
bare
Aud she laughed once more as she heard his
tread
HE is older now. He viii soon be deadr'
But the breeze Of the morning blew, and found
That the leaves of the blown Rose strewed the
ground
And he came at noon, that Gardener old
And he raked them softly under the mould.
And wove the thing 70 a random rhyme,
For the Rose is Beauty, the Gardener Time.

IF. II. Rowley, in Good Housekeeping
Good housekeeping offers some suggestions
about disinfectants:
There are many kinds-some much easier
of application than others, and some whose
value is not disputed. For a common, cheap
disinfectant, chloride of lime is good, but
sulphate of iron, ordinarily known as cop
pcras, is probably better. For those unable
to purchase or apply the Others, this simple
direction may be of survice: Put fifty
pounds of copperas into a basket or some
other porous receptacle, and suspend it in a
barrel of water; after il has stood day or
two, use literally of the liquid thus formed,
by pouring il into vaults and drain, and
over the ground about your doors, where
any filth has been allowed to accumulate.
If you cannot use it on so great scale, dis
solve pound or two in pail of water as
you need it, and use feeely from time to
time.
These suggestions needed, the body kept
clean by frequent bathings, tie food plain
and well cooked, all unripe fruit and stale
vegetables prohibited from the table, we may
almost defy those maladies which, like diph-
liberia, scarlet fever, dysentery, typhoid fe-
ver consumption and cholera, destroy so
many homes and desolate so many hearts.
We need have no fear that too much care
can lie taken to have our homes from cellar

are, we must stand responsible for the conse-
quences that will surely follow our careless
