HAUTE,

I JV fc'.

aesday Morning, October 5th, 1869.

A. BUMOE, believed to have Bome foundation, reaches us to the effect that it is proposed to remove the office of Assessor of Internal Revenue.for tbis collection District, from this city loGospori. Itap pears to us that such a removal is not demanded either by justice or expediency The great bulk of the assessment is made in Terre Haute, the commercial meUopo* li-.of the District. The interests of tiie service would seem to demand the retention ofthe office a', the point where most of its business is transacted. IVraonal interests should not, in our opinion, be per milted to controHhis, or any o'.ber public mutter.any farther ifcan those interests arn entirely consistent with the good ofthe ervio) and llie convenience of the public.

3L'hk Tennessee Legislature will probably make an oarly disposal of tho troulome questions, "who. shall have Fow-

LEK'b

place in ihe U. S. Senate? It is ,io of these absorbing aud overshadowing issues that cannot v/ell be held in abeyance and must bo settled beforo the Legislature can onter upon tho usual course of mending and making laws. In our opinion ADTDBEYT JOHNSON is the comin'g man. He has been for a long tfme scheeming for tho position, and appears to havo done his work well, making (.von his bitterest enemios subservient to his purpose. IIo has a record of almost unvarying succtsj as an offico-eeeker, never having sufforod but a singie dnfoat, nnd that added to his strength and popularity subsequently. It is mainly due to his plotting that we have seon, in TenueBSde, a Republican mujorily, which represented 104 against 4,transformed into a mocratic majority, sufficiently powerful to confer cilice upon the ex President, and that, too, in faco of a constitutional disfranchisement and an olaborato system of registration, that excluded from suffrage tho only persons whoso voto could possibly turn the scale.

Bepublican,

on tho probability of his election, justly remarks that however "unscrupulous, selfith, malign and dangerous Andrew JOHNSON may be, it is a groat mistake to underrate his powers. The possibilities ho has created, within seven months, out of apparent impossibilities, so admonish us. With him in high official position, sending forth his specious appeals to tte prejudices of the poor against tho rich, the scheme to repuiiiato the national debt which has fallen still-born from

To complete the performance he should) with reference to tho recent triumph of the English Liberals, have added, in tho language of his own Dedlocb: "Upon my honor, my life, upon my reputation and principles, the floodgateB 6f society are burst open, the waters have—a—obliterated tho It & imarks of the frame, work of tho cohesion by which things wore hold togolher."

A TALK OF HORROR.

Terrible Brutality of a Man In Polk County, Minn.

Fiom the IluJsuti (Wis.) Star anil Times.] We have been furnished by H. D. Baker, Esq., of this city, with the partic ulars ot ouo of tho most terrible stories of brutality by a insn towards bia family, over published. Wo havo only space lor a brinf montion of the painful particulars.

Tho name of tbe brute is Hiram Fay. Ho formerly, some elven years Hgo, lived in Lakeland, Minn., but movod to Lincoln, in Polk county, ahd now resides in tho woods some twolve milos from St. Croix Falls.

that "England is only a free-trading country as far a3 it suits her convonionre sho !B a protectionist in dealings wiih America In 1850 tho amount of duty levied in English ports on tobacco from the United States was $19,724,420, which sum exeaedeJ by more than half a million dollars tho whole of tho duties on ,, .. down at his feat, while he would beat English manufactures collected during

His family ct nsUtsof his wifo and four children, tho eldest oleven, and tbe youngest four years of age. For a long scries of years ho has been practicing tho most unheard of cruelties upon his family. He has whipped bis wife hundreds o( times with un ox whip and beat har with clubs.

HwrforiR bears numerous marks of his unheard of violence. It has bean h'8 common practico to make his wife kneel

If sho gave

tbo slightest ffonae, no matter how un intentional, ho would whip her in tbo most brutal niunner. Uo made her work outdoors, in the fields, for years in'Iogging, gathering brush, plowing, harrowing, driving oxen, etc. If gbe did not work h*rd enough to suit him, be would beat her in tho most terrible manner.— Ho often knocked her down, and kicked

miscarriage. Ho has whipped her

and when she tried to do so, would spit in her face. We cannot detail half the unmentionable horrors of his conduct. He alwayB threatened to kill her and her children, if she exposed him. He would not allow hor to write to her frionds, and so his devilish behavior has been for years an awful secret. At last,-through a neighbor, the martyred woman communicated to her parents the facts of her treatment, and a few days ago they arrived here, employed Mr. Baker had Fay arrested, and the woman and her children released trom their f»arful bondage

On An Icebcrg.

From Marper'd Weekly]* I was once summoned home from my travels on tbo Continent by very important news. There was no time to lose in getting back, so I went as fast as I could to Havre, and took the first ship that sailed Jor New York. It was in the month of June, which I considered the most pleasant time in tbe year to cross the Atlantic and though I found after leaving that my ship was an old and rather leaky concern, yet I did not feel any very great anxiety.

We went on for several days and as we were favored with a fine breeze, per fectly fair, we made vory rapid progress, and soon came within tbe region of the Banks of Newfoundland.

But here a stop was put upon our progress. On the second day alter we arrived on this spot the wind died away altogether.

For an entire day we lay becalmed with the ship tossing lazily over the huge ocean surges. All hands grew impatient. Our captain, who had been in high glee at our quick progress, and had expected by this time to be sailing in New York Harbor, now lost bis patience, and spent the greater part of his lime in cursing alternately the wind, the waves, the sky, the sun, the ship, and bis own eyes.

This did not help tbe matter at all, however. In fact, worse things than mere calm were in store for us. During the night a fog came On, and when we arose in the morning it had closed in all around us with a density that had never imag iued beforo and have never since seen equaled.

Here was a pretty situation. A dead calm, a smooth sea, and not a breath of wind. I blamed myseif a thousand times for not going on to Liverpooljand taking an ocean steamer.

However, there was no resource but patience. Patient wo had to bo whether we liked it or not.

In the middle of the following day, however, we felt a slight breath of air. It was the first breath of the glorious wind which now again was a blowing stronger every hour, until, when I went to bed, I retired with the pleasing thought that every hour carried me ten miles nearer to my home.

I slept soundly. But suddenly, at about three o'clock in the morning, as far as 1 can recollect, I was awakoned by a sudden crash which sounded liked thunder in my half-aroused sense", Bnd 8eemcd to shake tha ship to pieces.

In a moment I was out of my berth and up on the deck. Great Heaven I what a spectacle there met my gaza!

All around was tbe blackness of dark-* nese. Tho wind was howling fiercely through tbe rigging. Tho sailors were running wildly to and fro. The captain was standing like a man paralyzed, and shouting, while he wrung his band?, "We're lost I we're lost I" 1 spoke not a word to any one, but quickly and nimbly as a cat, I lo down from tho quarter-deck on to "the poop deck, and rushed forward. 4t was so intensely dark and thick that I could 6oe .but litilo with distinctness. Yet a strange feeling of intenso cold made itself evident even then to my sansps.

I leaped upon the forecastle. Then a sight of horror burst upon my view.

High before me, extending out of sight, was a vast precipice—appearing in the darkness to be ot immeasurable proportions. And at ^hiB the ship was crashing and pounding. At each srtoke of tho ship huge masses came thundering down, and falling with deafening noise into tbe ocean.

What was it? Was it tbe rocky coast of New Foundland? or was it a lonely rock in the middle ocean

It was neither. 1 soon knew all. It was a vast iceberg I The ico itself was not colder than the chill that rushed through every nerve as this appalling thought burst upon my mind. Then in one moment an utter sense of ruin, of hopelpss desolation took away my faculties.

But now there was no time to lose, nor was there time even to mourn. For tbe ship, acted upon by the long rolling Waves ot the Atlantic, was driven with fearful violence full against the enormous mass. I heard the crashing ice—I heard the shattering of her timber*—I heard the rush of tbo water as it poured into her.

The Ehip seemed alive, struggling like some drowning wretch to avert her fate. The groaning of her parting timbers sounded like a human voice—the voice of one in agony.

A mighty wave of gigantic size now lifted the quivering mass high into the air. Retreating backward it bore its lead away from tbe iceberg for some considerale distance, but only to hurl back with more tremendous force. Returning with redoubled power it flung tbe ship headlong against the enormous mass. I, who was standing on the prow, was thrown as though I had been a straw, off from the ship entirely I fell prostrate and almost senseless upon tbe iceberg, on a decling surface along which I shot for a long distance, until I was stopped by an upright mass of ice.

All around me I heard a burst of fearful sound—a sound of crashing timbers, falling mast4, roaring waters, crumbling masses of ice, and bowling winds, while high and distinct above them all arose a shrill wail of human agony which shall never be forgotten by me, until my ear is closed to all earthly sounds forever '~r^z--rrrr.--:r^-~==z~ 'Misericorde." /~S'

Alone there in the thick darkness, clinging to tbo man of ice before me, with the tempest howling aroand, and the sense of horr#r at the fate of my com

panions, it wu wonderful that through the accumulated terrora of lhat fearful moment my mind passed without failing beneath the un equaled trial. "Misericorde f'

I too exclaimed the last word of my companions, and sunk senseless upon the ice.

How long I lay I knew not It could not have toen less than an hour, but at It st sense returned, and with it all tbe recollection of my situation.

I rose to my feet painfully. I was first aware of my own physical condition. Yet before doing any thing I cast a Inok around.

The fog had cleared away altogether. 1.. broad expanse of ocean lay before me, its deep blue surface reflecting the gorgeous rays of tbe sun which was just risng. There wu not a breath of wind, and the sea was unruffled as a mountain lake. 1 cast a glance downward to see if there was a single vestige of the ill-fated ship.

Alas I not a single vestige could be seen. Not a plank—not even a chip floated upon tne water. All had gone down. Not a wretch was saved. I only —I only had escaped to tell the tale.

I was standing upon a broad surface of ice nearly half an acre in extent. It was smooth and slippery as glass. It was nearly level. I was at the lower end of it, and had been stopped by a high wall against which I bad Etruck.

The iceberg was of the most colossal magnitude and grandeur. At the side of tho slippery surface where I stood it went sheer down perpendicularly into the sea. But its edge extended away on either side for an immense distance. Its edge ought to be called a coutt,

so extraordinary was

its extent. On the other hand, behind me it ascended far into the air. Not all at once or abruptly, but by a series of terraces until at last far away its loftly summit seemed to touch tbe clouds. The terraces were regular and even. At intervals along the'ascent arose towers and pinnacles, and upon the utmost point a vast spire of glittering ice shot up straight into the skies for at least a hundred feet. Seen from a distance it looked Tike some glorious city, tome magnificent capital such as we read of in the fantastio story of the Arabian dreamer.

Alas I to me there was no time for admiration or wonder. All this I took in at a glance. I quickly returned to myself. 1 was chilled ibrougb. Fortunately I bad slept tbat night with my clothes on, or it would have been worse with me.— As it was, my hands and feet were perfectly numb.

I rubbed my hands violently, struck and beat them, and at the same time ran down stamping my feet. Tbe violent exertion brought warmth into my system. My hands began at length to have something like sensation, but my feet were frozen. 1 began to think now with greater des. pair upon my situation.

There was no hope for me 1 I could see all around. Not a sail was upon the vast expanse. Yet on one side I could not see. It was hidden by the lofty island df ice.

In a moment my resolution was formed. "I will go there," I said, aloud. "I can but die. To stay here will be to perish slowly. To go there will be to seek a chance a life. Moreover, it will distract my thoughts, which here will drive me mad. I will go.

And go I did. I set forth boldly. I mounted terrace after terrace as I went along on a journey such as no mortal man has ever undertaken. Bunyed up by the dear hope of life, I went bravely on.

Deep chasms intercepted me—awful precipices rose before me. My footsteps disturbed immense masses of icc, which came crashing down, yet still I went on.

What will not hope make a man do? On! on I Nearer! nearer! And now the summit is near—nearer—nearer. It is gained I There, at last, I stand at the foot of the lofty pinnacle—alone on my vast iceberg!

Alone I Ob, what is that upon the ocean Never before was tbe presence of man so dear to his .despairing fellow..

There, not a mile from me, was the form of an ocean steamr, slowly passing by on the course toward America. I saw tbe tumult, tbe hurry, tbe thronging, tho confusion.

I was seen The steamer hove to, A boat wss let down, and in a few minutes was within hail. I pointed back to the other side of the island.

Back again I went—rejoicing—praying—singing with joy and gratitude. I was saved I

A jump into the sea, and I was caught up and taken into the boat and into tbo stoamer,

I am a saved man—and aii artificial foot which I now am compelled to use over reminds mo of my fearful adventure.
