Today in
Washington History
BY DONALD A CRAIG.

October 2, 1sS1-The sloop John l..
Brown arrived at the wharf at the foot
of Twelfth street today with load of
oysters from the lower Potomac River.
Capt Mister reports that he passed up
the entire length of the river without
being moleSteS by the Confederates or
seeing anything of an alarming nature.
Numerous sailing vessels were passed
by Capt Mister in the lower river,
most of which are bound up river to
Alexandria, Georgetown and Washing
ton. They are loaded with hay other
farm produce. wood and coal. He saw
between 20 and 80 such vessels near
Freestone Point, all moving slowly up
stream
Sensational reports have recently
been printed in newspapers in New
York City and other cities of the North
that the Potomac River has been block
AIDED by the Confederatcs. The news
brought today by Capt. Mister confirms
similar reports brought here by other
vessels which have recently passed up
the river in safety: namely, that there
is no foundation whatever for the sto-
RIGS of a blockade of the Potomac.
The Confederates are known to be
active on the Virginia side of the river
along its lower STRETCHES. but 1t is not
believed they will attempt serious
blockade of the stream, for the reason
that they have no vessels capable of
maintaining it. They may. it is true.
harass some vessels passing up the
river to Washington by firing on them
from time to time. but it is believed by
the military and naval authorities here
that it will be comparatively easy
task, with the aid of a few small war
vessels. to keep the river open all the
way from its mouth to the Capital City.
The same confidence is expressed by
the military and naval authorities with
regard to navigation on Chesapeake
Bay. between Fortress Monroe and
points on the upper bay. For the
present the Confederates will probably
be left in control of the waters near
the mouth of the James River or at
least of that river itself
The funeral of Maj Gen. George
Gibson, who was commissary general
of the Army for 43 years, was held

The world is still in the dark in re-
gard to the cause of smallpox. OF
course, it is an infection, but we do not
know precisely how the infection is con-
veyed from one person to another The
ancient theory that it was carried in
the air is no longer tenable. Even the
theory that it is carried in or by such
inanimate objects as letters, clothing or
old rags. is questionable. Although This
theory is evidently accepted by the SAN
itary authorities Of the world, l strongly
suspect the common house fly as the
usual, if not the sole, agent in the
spread of smallpox. The fly, from his
first few days of life as maggot. seems
to me emnently suited to the role. and
l have vet to learn Of an outbreak of
smallpox in which his activities could be
excluded in reason.
