BUTE Of PlXfTOH Bloc our last issue, the word ha gono forth that Pans-row 8. Brook, mom bor of ConfTMa from South Carolina, to deed. Tbe attack was sharp the issue sudden. In the flush of hoalth, when just touching the meridian of hie powers, the strong man encounters one strongor than he. In the midst of e aeeneof conspicuous activity, Just in the very throng and pressure of the crowd convoked at the National Metropolis by the calls of politics, or fashion or mammon, and at tho point of timo when that mixed array is noialest and most restless this bold man, who might be taken as the type of physical energy sinks in a moment at the tough of disflaio, and, helplooa mm infancy, perishes of croup. Attended by expert physicians, watched anxiously by troops of friend, all human rsseeiues are exhausted; he has mat the fatal archer, who, at some point less or mora remote, Hot in ambuah on tho pathway of story man; the arrow flies to its prodoatinad mark, and nothing remain but hollow iplondors mon employ to tho horrors of the tomb. Senators aad Representatives rehearse their atorootyped eulogies. They are met by President, and Cabinet Officers, and foreign Ministers, while the Chaplain delivers bis homily on tho promise to the dying but repentant thief, and all is over on the earth-ward tide of the inscrutable pall that abuts oot the future with Preston 8. Brooks. It is out of the power of man to receive the news of this event with the tame lev. el current of emotion that soon floats an ordinary congressional death into oblivion. We are startled. For the victim in this instance had just reaped a harvest of notoriety. Hie name to in every man's month, seeociated with an act of violence, which had instantaneously attracted to him the eyes of the world. For all we ean learn of him, he might have lived and died, in the earns obscurity that covers ninety-nine in the hundred of our national law-makers, if he had not in a tingle bound challenged the attention of all men es an unscmpulous law-breaker. Hit name hardly known beyond his own atato, he aeaumee to be that state's champion, assails in the Senate chamber, a Senator of spotlese lifo and rare abilities, whom he aflbeSs to regard as the slauderar of Sooth Carolina beats him crnolly end bloodily to the floor ho helpless tho while and laavee him to languish in aatate of living death, from which he is not yet recovered. That moment Brooks became famoua and Infamous, lie realised as fully aa any man of his generation the truth so nobly ottered by Milton: "Two wing htth Fame, one Mark Ibo other white, Asa hoik b waves (a her unequal Staat. A party rallies amund him; a party turns fiercely upon him. The air la full of a strange medley of anathemas and aphe is loved end hstod, cursed and 1, expelled in ditgrace and return ed with all the honors hi constituents can bestow; and Uvea out his brief hour amidst the ridicule and loathing of one cheered by the lavish praiaoa and lavish gifts of another. Death atepe In and hushes the atrife of tonguea. Here we should be content to leave tho controversy, trusting to tho impartial Judgment poeterity must rentier. But io the oongreesionaal eulogies a Mr. Ha v auk (worthy the name) goes bevond all hia partners in grief and bypoiiole, and de elaree that ilia memory of the deceased will live when all in tho capitot are for gotten, and its pillars crumbled tu dust. We have no disposition whatever to assail the dead. We presume no hint of Providential deaigu lu the auddeu and summary termination of hia career. Ws hold no sympathy with the pharisaical Impudence that rangea God on lta sido in all the affairs of life, ami compels tho Omnipotent to play the auxilltary to its potty hopes and fears. We road of his death and remember we are each man of us to tread the same dark path; and that uoone of us to exempt from the stain of folly and ehe. In hie very crime he is our brother, and we cannot shake off the fraternity If we would. Eut it is quiio another thing to express our disgust at this insane bombast, which, taking ad van tag o of the silence imposed upon those of different views, by the decencies of the occasion, proceeds to elevate the dead above all survivors, and to anticipate for hia memory tho lore and respect of remoter ages. This is to confound reason and folly, aud to obliterate the dividing line between right and wrong. To such persons as Mr. Savage, these antiquated distinctions are, perhaps, nssrly imperceptible. They are none the less clear and important. In a word then, there to but one appraisal thinkiug men can set upon the only act that has lifted Mr. Brooks oat of his indigenous obscurity. That act may be remembered for many generations; for taken in all its relations, it comprises an episodo History cannot overlook. But how will U be remembered? It may, by stupid clamors and dexterous appeals to interest and paation, be possible for a timo to invest it with somo elements of a false chivalry and State pride. But, as time glides by in its silent flight, these clamors are silenced, anil the paltry interests and fevorish passions of the hour are forgotten. A just Toward most follow an impartial scrutiny. All tho ornament which partial friends may hang around the name of Mr. Brooks, will, under each a test, be found meretricious; aad if he is remembered, it will be like many others embalmed in history, to paint a moral against the "bloody aud deceitful man."

About tste Agricultural He-

clot r. The charge that we are mad at the Agricultural Society, because we didn't get premiums, is a mistake. fWe have taken premiums on nearly every thing we ever exhibited, except shanghais, and we would have taken the proprium on them had not Shirk and others exhibited better stock. We wish to Improve the Society that it nay be instrumental in improving Agriculture. In addition to the suggestion made lest week, as to the means ot learning how to raise corn, oats and wheat, we would call attention to the market for corn, or in other words we would like to know, from a series e experiments, by different men, in different parts of the county, how many bushels of corn it takes to make a hundred weight of hog, or, in other words, how much a farmer realises for his corn, when bogs are fe per 100, Isaiah O. Scoby tried the experiment onoe, with a satisfactory result, but who knows how much of that high price is owing to bis excellent breed of hogs(7) Let some body else try it. Let a dosen try it, at the same time, in different neighborhoods. Let it be tried for a series of years. Let tho society offer a premium of $10 to ev er; man who will weigh S pigs on the list of April, and food them corn in the ear, in Ihn ordinary way, on tho ground, in the mud when it rains; another 8, on corn meal, uncooked; another 8, on com and cob meal cooked. Let them hs of the name quality of hogs, and, aa near an i as poesibls, and 1st them be weighed on tho first of J nly and again on tho first of October. Let the exporimentor report the exact amount of corn, by weight, fed to each lot of hogs, and the growth, up to Jul v. snd the growth unto October. It 0 , v or a similar experiment be tried in reference to cattle. Let it be followed up for seve ral years, and a class of facts will be slicted that will be worth millions. We axe happy to announce that Mr. Debolt of Hlooniinggrove township la engaged in this experiment. Let inducements be of fered to others. In this connection we would surest another exieriniont. It is teeming fashionable to send pigs to mar ket at about the age of 19 or 15 months. True, they weigh SAO or 300 pounds, but would not corn put into these pigs, one yesr longer, bring a better price than it does up to that ago ? Whoever tried the experiment ? We know some men who think it would. Let the experiment be by continuing a part of tho lots above alluded to, over another year. It is only by such experiments as those, that real scientific agriculture can be promoted The question should not bo who exhib its the largest hog, but who makes the most pork or beef, in the shortest time, aud at the least expense. When these experiments have beeen fully tested, snd the culture of tho hog becomes a matter of a a a a .a - - Kirnet, wo would recommend that tho value of different kind of grasses for pasturage and meadows be tested in the same way and so ou until the whots of farming and gardening bo tested and improved. Mr. Samuel B. Clay of Bourborn Co., Kentucky, has recently published the re sult of experiments on thie subject. Ho fed aix bogs, tu various ways, with the result that on boiled corn, 1 bushel mads 14 6o-100 lbs; and of dry corn 5 80-100 lbs, making a pound of pork, when com is 38 conts por bushel, cost, from dry corn, 4 8-10 cents, from mush, 1 6-10, from boiled corn, 1 9-10. Let us encourage such experiments, and note the results. Those oxperimeots of Mr. Clay show that one bushel of corn, iu cooked meal, is worth about three bushels fed in the ordinary way. Now tho establishment of this fact( by repeated experiments, would be worth millions, and It ia Just for this purpose that the society is formed. Tho aame principle should be applied to domestic productions. Thus, how applebutter is made whothor with molasses, or sugar or only apples and cider. How bread in made how butter Is made how preserves are made and all such things. Tho law of the state is right, but the practice of our society has been wrong. As to the ladies' department, we would not discourage it not at all. It would be a poor ahow without the women or their work. Wo are not hostile to quilts, or mats, but let the exhibitor tell how long it took her to make It, how much the material cost and all that. Now gentlemen aud ladies, we are through, for tho present, if you don't like what we have said, say so this is a free country aud tho American is at your carvies. But, if you don't like it, don't growl about it until you are able to show the falsity of our position. Electloa of V Neaatora. The Democrats elected two United Slates Senators, Thursday night, 29th nit. They elected Q. N. Fitch for the short term, and J. D. Bright for the. long term. They recommend Oov. Wright for a first class cabinet appointment Poor Wright! This election took place in the Hall of the House, iu what was called a caucus, ;but the same caucus is to meet in what is to bo culled a "joinfeonvention," and ro-elect them. No one pretends that such an election will entitle them to their seats, but they will go to Washington with their bo gus certificates, get their milage, and per diem, for a year or two, before the Senate will oust them; thus they get remuneration for their sacrifices in the cause of Democracy and Slavery. Iowa Heoyaade. lion. James Harlan arrived in this city this morning, and communicated to Gov. Grimes notice 'of the action of the United States Senate in his case. During tho morning session, without caucus, and without concert, a motion was made to go into an election of United States Senstor at 3 o'clock this afternoon. The motion waa promptly adopted. As soon as it met in the afternoon, the House adopted the resolution. At 3 o'clock the two Houses met, and in tun minutes thereafter, the President of the Senate annnounced that Hon. lames Harlan, having received a majority of the votes cast, wss duly elected United States Senator from Iowa for the term ending in March, 1861. The rote stood thus: Jas Harlan 63 W..F. Coolbach 35 W. T. Barker i Perhaps that certificate will pass. Thst is the way they do things iu Iowa. Iowa City Beput., 21 &

SSroaltvllle Vellage. We aro pleased to find, in traveling through the country, that public attention is turning to this institution. The impropriety of sending children, in preparatory studies, to the crowded University, or kee ping them in the half-taught district school, is becoming apparent to all. The school has been well patronized this winter, and, so far as we know, the utmost satisfaction has boon given. Tho examinations, and exhibitions, this week, have been creditable to all parties. Miss Lock wood's Music Class is said to have ac quitted itself admirably. The noxt term begins next Monday. It is imortaut that all ahould begin with the torro. The Little Pilgrim. A yesr sgo we would havo hailed the monthly visit of Quack Qkkknwood' little Pilgrim with great delight, because there waa then one In our household whoso eyes would have sjmrkled and whoso heart would havo bounded with Joy, at its appearance. But that one has finished hor pilgrimage and Is at rest, not with staff in hsnd, aa tho ploture in thia llttlo book Indicates, but with pnlms and a crown. Wo hope however to receive it regularly, and wo promise all parents a rich monthly treat for fifty cents a year, by sending tho name of their little boy or girl to Leander 6V Lippencott, 66 Third st., Philadelphia. Five copies will be sent for $9. Too few parents furnish their children with reading suitable to their age. The Democratic Fresa. It must be painfully manifest to every observing Democrat, that, for some years pest, the Democratic proas throughout tho country hss been growing weaker, snd that of the opposition stronger. In tho late Presidential canvass, tho inequality of tho two opposing agencies was appalling. Tho Black Republican papers In the North and West exceeded those of the Democracy four or five to ono. Cincinnati Enq. We published sn article similar to this, a few weeks ago, from the Indiana Sentinel. It is a candid admission that may premie reformation. We could give tho cause of thia difference, but need not now. It is no mean compliment, however, to the Republicans, that they are a reading people. It is that which raakos them what they are. Election of I mied amies Neaalor 1st Wisconsin The telegraph has already announced tho election of J. R. Doolittleas United States Senstor, by tho Legislature of Wis consin. 1 ho proceeding, im detailed lv the Wisconsin papers, woro rather stormy, the election was made in Joint Convention. Tho vote when taken stood soventy-nine for Doolittle, and thirty-six for Dunn. Before the vote was declared, a member rises and wishes to present some documents to tho presiding officer. It is understood that one of those paorB is a coriia . t a m w . . e a t tincate that air. uooiittie was oiected a J udgo of the Circuit Court, ami that his timo has not expirod. In the opinion of somo this renders him ineligible. A strong and protracted debate followed, du ring which tho Lieutenant Governor, who preaided, expressed the opinion that Doolittle was ineligible, and ho accordingly declared tho vote cast for him out of order, and void. An appeal was taken from his decision, and the appeal was sustained and the Convention decided that these votes were not void and the Convention sdjourned. It is supposed thst ths presiding officer will not certify his election, snd Mr Doolittls will go to Washington with a simple statement of facts, or with a certificate signed only by the Speaker of tho House, without the signature of the Speul.fr of the Senate. a Western Siiom -florin. The exploits of a company of gentlemen, one of whom Mr. McConville la a citisen of Rochester, in a snow storm on the prairies, are commitnicutod to tlin Union, of thatcity. Wo make tho following extract from the article, published January 10, by way of illustrating tho pleasures of traveling iu ths region sokon of: Tho party left Freeport, on the Chicago and Galena Railroad, iu a train bound westward. Tho thermometer at noon indicated 21 below aero, 'and, of course, the weather was colder at night. The train proceeded twenty miles, and became fast in the snow, and , remained so for thirty hours. Tho locomotive was dotatched from the train, and attempted to force its way to a station. It proceeded only three miles when it became fast, and could neist U ssa .a iner proceed nor return, so me passengers were left without wood. The train contained mou, women, aud children, and all s uttered, not only from cold, but, also, from hunger. Tho passengers dug up the fences from beneath tho drifts, and burned them as long as they lasted. When all thia kind of fuel was exhausted, they commenced burning the cars, and actually destroyed a part of one car. All this time the cold was intense, and the wind blew a galo over the prairie. Mr. M'Convillo and three others finally left tho train, and worked their way to a house, three miles distant, where they obtained food and fire. Mr. M'Conville had an ear frozen in his travels. He then got a team and was taken to Wsrren. What became of the rest of tho passengers ho does not state. State or Siteiuor.-A petition, largely signed, was presented to the Michigan Legislature, a few days since, by citizens residing in the iron aud copper region north of Lake Michigan and south of Lake Superior, asking to be separated from the remainder of the State and restored to a Territorial Government, so that a new State may eventually be erected out of that isolated portion of the world. The geography of the country shows the propriety of such a division.

Fron tee Indians Journal, Tuesday, Est). J. ham on esttlen st risnste ""ATeae. uro far .Tfeasurs," or Trickster

Outwitted. Everybody expected fun yesterday when tho Sham Convention met to elect Senators. And everybody, except the Democrats, saw fun of the funniost kind. The "biters were bitten" about as deeply as any set of tricksters ever were. We have heard of men who cut their fingers with their own sharpness, and knocked themselves over with their own guns, but we never heard of a prettier illustration of this sort or "back action" than was witnessed in the Sonate Chamber yesterday afternoon. The Democrats, who were playing what they thought a sharp trick in running away 'to make a sham convention, were counter-checked in a manner at once parliamentary, effective, and funny. The manner thereof was aa follows : Tho Senate mot at one o'clock, pursuant to adjournment on Friday, ann pro. oaaded regularly with business till two o'clock. At that time the clerk was reading a report of the Attorney General. He was ordered by the Lieutenant Governor to stop. Rising from his chair, tho President said: "Gentlemen of tho Senate: On the 13th of January a conven tion of tho House and .Senate mot in tho Hall of the House to canvass tho votes for Governor and Lieutenant Governor. When that dutv was performed the convention was adjournod till tho 2nd of February at 9 o'clock. That time having come the Senators will repair to tho Hall of the House." He then dosooudsd from the chair, and tho Democratic Senators followed him out of the Chamber. No motion was nude to adjourn, and no ad jonrnment waa docjarod. Mr. Hammond went nut, just as Mr. Willard did, und leif ill" ch:ur vacant, lie had hardly quitted tho platform (a thing he ought to do with fncility, as he baa had a good deal of practice in getting off of platforms.) lie fore the Senate appointed Mr. Burke President pro torn. A motion was mndc at once to take up the case of Le-Roy Woods, Senator from Clarke, whoso seat was con tested, und aninst whoso clnim tho Jtnli defY Committee hud retiortod several days ago, declaring his seat vacant, T dorn liml noon Innl on tin- tunic, :ml wn-. awaiting the action of the Senate, ready to Iks taken up at any moment. It was taken up, tuul concurred, with Imtonodis sontmg voice, (Mr. Crane of Floyd), ami Air. ,tstp,t. dulu,jrmallu, am lawful ly ejected. By Mm timo tho Democrats heard what was going on, and hurriod bark tu tile Uiiuulny to stop it. Hut they came too late. Their uppearanco in tho liar was hailed with tromondous shouts and laughter by tho Republican Senators, tho lobbies and ovorybody. When thoy hoard what had been done, their faces fell as fast as a harotnotcr before a tornado. Thov cursed, aud protostod and grumbled, and dououucod, but it was indignation wasted. 1 he thing was "did,' aud it will take "All the King's hoous am all the King's mon" to pull Mr. Woods in to his seat again. While tho Democrats were coming in, a motion to adjourn was carried, and amidst the lolliest sort'of fun the Semite adtouin cd. Mr. Hammond, fur the purpose of Keeping up appearance, took Ins scat, ami hall choking with laughter, made hit nit nouncoment that tho Senate had adjournod. But it was a work of atiperrerrogstion. Everybody was up and going, the Republicans bursting with laughter, the Democrats furious and blasphemous. Taken altogether, it was tho bost exeoutod "check mate" of a piece of trickery, that ever was nttemptod in the Senate, and is perfectly valid. There can bo no doubt that Mr. Woods is as regularly ousted as any contestant over was, and he will be kept so if the rules of legislation are exocutea as they ahould he. Ho has not a shadow of right to appear in his seat to day, and he nover had a legal right to that seat sinco ho accepted a second oflice of "trust and profit." Tho vote that ejected him was a regular formal vote, given by tho Senate in regular session. Then was io call for tho yeas and nays, and none was n odod. Tho question was simply on conevrring in a report; and it was curried by consent. So far as the Senate could know, thuro was a quorum present Thcro had boen no proceeding instituted to ascertain whether there was or not, and a quorum is presumed present until a call show- that there is not. If Domocruta wont out without awaiting sn adjoin omont, it was their own affuir. The Senate is not bound to take cognisance of the absenco of a member, or of a docen, or any number of members, until regular proceedings show that thoy are absent. If the runaways had gono off to get a drink, or to buy apples, or to talk in the lobbies,, it would have been Just the same. There was no adjournment, and if thoy wont away , thoy disregarded their duty, .i.e. havo nobody to blame but themselves If business waa transacted in their absence. Thev may fuss and fret, but thoy will And it hard to show that this sjoctmont is not strictly parliamentary. Aa it was simply tho docision of acoutostod caso, and was not an "expultion" propur, a majority was all that was noeded. We had almoA forgotten the Sham Convention, in our notice of this affair. Wo will despatch it briefly. When the half doson Democrats who ran avay from the senate entered the House, thoy found it pretty much vacant. The Republicans wore all absent, so that there was no quo rum of either house present. The Itenublicans triod by celling tho "Yoas and Nays" to make this apwar, but tho speaker had boon drilled, and wouldn't recognize them, or heed their call. Iu this unpailiatueulary way iilono was the fuel that a quorum wus not present, rovented from being shown. But tho Democratic senators took seats, determined to "play out the play." Mr. Hammond called the Convention to order, msdoover again tho speech ho had ui.ido in the senate, and adjourned the meeting, or caucus, or whatever it wus, till Wednesday at 10 o'clock. So ended the Convention. No elections were attempted. Tho Democrats did a lusiug business yustorday. They didn't get uuy United States Senators, and lost a State 6'enator, und with him thoir only chauco of over bringing on tho election legally. I mm Woetilllgtou. Npm Isl Uliai h to tho N . Y. Tribune . Washington, Jan. ID. 'I'liu Senate held a secret session to-day, In which the question of tho removal of Judge Lecompte from thd Chief Justiceship of Kansas wss discussed. Gun. Cass inquired w hat had become of tho nomination of Mr. Harrison, to supersede Judge Lecompte as Chief Justice of Kansas, which was sent in to tho Senate by tho President some time ago. Mr. Toombs, as Chairman of that committee, replied that the committee had not yet docidod upon what report thoy should make in relation to u. Mr. Cass rejoined w ith considerable feeling that it whs quite time some action should be taken upon this subject. Mr. Toombs responded that for himself, as fur as he was concerned, he was ready to re port against it. He thought it was an arbitrary assumption of authority for the President to attempt to remove a member of the Judiciary merely because bis decision happened to lo contrary to his (the President's) wishes. The Judiciary sho'd feel, when giving thoir decisions, that their placo did not depend upon their giving an opiuion coinciding with tho views of tho Executive. Tho act of the President was such an exorcise of power as should be checked .by the Senate. Mr. Cass replied that, however the case

might be with regard to the members of the Supreme Court of the Uuited States, with

regard to the Judiciary of the Territories, the law had been settled by a decision of the Supreme Court It had boon decided that the Presidsnt had power to remove tho Judges of the territories. Mr. Toombs dissented from such a de cision. If any such had been made he would consider it unconstitutional. The question was asked why the Com mittee did not report one way or the other? Mr. Toombs answered that they wore waiting to hoar Judge Looompto's defonse. There was some further discussion on the subject of removing Judge Lecompte; the general opinion seomed to be thst the exercise of the power of removal by tho President was constitutional under the circumstances. The nomination of Mr. Spencer us Mar shal of Kansas, in place of Donaldson, was considered. letter l rollt lud IliUu pol I. Indianapolis, Jan. 30, '57. Mr. Editor: Considerable excitement prevailed iu tho Senate to-day, produced by reference to the elections; various reso lutions were offered, somo touching tho olectiou of Sonaters alone, separutinir it from the election of minor officers, one relating to tho Agent of State tlisem barring it from nil other officii, aud one also for other offices, disconnecting thorn from the Senatorial question. All these several propositions having been laid on tho tuble by a strict party vote, rosolution was introduced and passed after considerable (lis cussiou, in which Messrs.

An angry discussion between Drew and Murray ensued, arising out of mi expre .sion usod by Mun.iv, in which hu declared that had ho bean iu tho Senate nt the hist session, "hu would have regarded himself a perjured scoundrel."

Speaking of tho bill in Congress to ro duco the current value of those coins, the New York Times says: "There is a bill before Congress which prufessoa to aim at excluding Spanish small ooins from our currency. It has not yet passed nordoos it seem to ua vory Duly to pass. It proposes to remedy the evils which tho public now suffers from these coins, by aggravatiug them. Tho objection to tho use of tho Spanish coin Is that tho holders of thorn aro usually shaved out of four or five per cent. In passing them. The bill proposes to remedy this by increasing the loss to twenty per cent.! It providos that these coins shall be received iu payment of Government dues at twenty pir cent, less thsn their current value, ami that when thus paid in at that reduded rate, they shall bo sent to tho Mint to bo recoinod." "The obvious and direct effect of such a provision is to keep tho objoctionablo coins out of the mint, and in circulation forovor. So long as our own gold und silver coins exist payments to government will be modo in thorn; and other markets will bo sought for tho rejected coins. Merc hunts transacting buslnesa with Spain, or her colonies, or tho Spanish American States, will ship them thither; the trading community will continue to uso them, sithor at thoir present or somo conventional value: and, so fur as any nominal or proper result of Congressional legislation Is Involved, tho subjoct will be wholly unaffected." Wo cannot wholly agreo with tho ftMkV the bill pattet, as it probably will, ..,' aud broken, who rule the country, wilj take them at tho legal rate and no mote. Meanwhile the anticipation of thepassu;;e of the bill thoy are paying them out at So cents. Wo hopo tho bill, amended so as to fix a future time for beginning operations, will pass, including all foreign coins. Wo are with coins just as we are with foreigners. Let them bo Americanized naturalited before they take any controlling part iu tho business or politics of tho Country. Aa we do not want these to vote bofore they becomo American, so we do not want their coins to circulate until tho Impfe of the American Eagle is put WptM them. When that is done wo don't care where they came from, let them pass and repass. BSow to Get Hid of Npsmlali ColN. We heard of Merchant living up town, who paid one of his servant girls on Saturday last, three dollars in Spanish shilling pieces, which ho hsd brought up from his store for that purpose. By this shrewd mauecuvor he saved and she lostsixty cents. Of course he lives in a stone-front and is rich; such a man could not remain poor. This illustrates, too, tho manner in which the expense of thus reforming the currency will be made to fall upon thoso who are least sble to boar it. New York Timet.

Bro. Eddy, iu his Advocate of tho 98th ult, gives the following experience of cold in northern Illinois. Guess we'll not go north: Ou Saturdsy, ths seventeenth dsy of the preseut month, in company with Bishop Ames, we started for tho Lake-street depot to attend tho dedication of the new church at Galena. It was a cold morning, but we thought we rather liked it, end that, after all, there was a good deal of the romantic in an arctic exploring expedition insisted that cold was "bracing," and that 4 drg. was rather a pleasant tornperuture. So concluding, our tickets were purchased, ami wo seated, and off. As to the railroading, we dismiss it with suggesting that after so much land bos been given to Illinois, we io think they ought to all old a few sticks of dry wood to burn iu the car stove, and, if the state of finances will stand tho outlay without a crisis, wo would suggest that two good stoves in each car w ill do more good to keep seventy-five human beings comforta ble than one old oshpan. On we tent until m t rea bed Fieejs.rt, whore w w e m informed our journey wo'd end, for between Frocisirt and Dunloith some sight or nino locomotives wcro stuck and tho officers would send no more. This was a sad disappointment to all of us; yet wo determined to War it as patiently as y . .;l,'... II re v.c found the mercury was about 14 (U-g. below aoro, ami our ideas of an arctic exploration were "losing thoir gay htio." Various plans wore devised. Bro. II. suggested that wo hire a sleigh and gmtd team, nnd go through the llfiy milos in six hours. The mercury was going down, ami was already nearly twenty minus. We decided that propor tion ne ;a!. el , bavin ; mercy, first on the team, and secondly on ourselves. If n train should go, we would If not, why, we would stay. About six o'clock v. M. wo wore told a train would venture, and immediately bundled tip ami pushed for the lotot. We hurried into tho ears, ami there we sat un til 0 r m Oh, how drenry thoso three hours w ere. Yet w e believe tho officers of tho road did thoir best to forward usspee dlly and safely. Tho ride to Galona was cold, and, save tho pleasant intercourse with our ministe rial brethren, was ehoorles. mere was much absolute suffering on tho train. More than once under the green-wood ad ministration, the stenm gavo out, and we were compelled to lio by until moro was "gotten up." At half (st ono in the mor ning, w o reached tho Galena depot. The brethren, after watching for us until mid night, hud received such telegraphic nows as to induce them to believe that the train would not arrive until daylight, and had gone home. Wo stepped out, and placing ourselves under the guidance of Bro. 11 ., started to find tho crossing of Fever Rivor. The 'track " runs along a narrow strip between tho river and hill; walking this wasadangorotis work, on account of the Ice, nnd tho bishop narrowly oscnped being crushed by tho heavy train so narrowly, that we shudder to think of it as wo write. Giving up as booties the search for a bridge, we turned upon tho ice and crossed over. Nover did wo suffor so from tho cold! Wo strugglod up tho bank, and made our w ay to a hotel, where we were ushered into a cold bar-room, no landlord, no clerk; a stupid boy at the dosk said, "There is rooms, but no lire in thorn." Had this dignified young gentleman called up the landlord, we havo no doubt, fiom thojroputation of the house, that we sho'd havo I ii mudo comfortable. The only ono who Boomed to caro for us was a young man of good countenance, looking like a generous-hearted good fellow, but more than half drunk, who stepped to the clerk's desk, and assured us that if we would "just step up ami register our autographs, wo should havo rooms on his responsibility. II u was sorry tho lire was out below "if it wasn't, ull these gentlomon should have a hot whiskey-punch I" Bro.ll. and Uro. B. told tho rest of us to romain, nnd they started for tho parsonage. An investigation convinced us of these facts 1st, tho mercury was down to 82 dog. below xoro; ad, our right ear was froxon and out hands frosted; 3d, our romantic notions that an arctic expedition was romsntie were All oxplodod. Wo stood a moment at tho door, and listened to the frost explosions, which rang like tho detonations of a brigade of muskets. A few moments sufficed to bring tho pastor Rov, F. A. Hoed to the door ami a few more, iuid we woro In a good, warm room, and wolcomod with the hospitality for which"Mothodist circuit ridors" arepiovorbial. A few hours'loep,aml wo wore summonod to breakfast. On arising, wo woro astonished to learn that the mercury was at 40 degrees below aero! Verily, wo had made mn arctic crploration in ttpite of ourselves t'roaru to Dcutls, The number of instances given whore persons havo perished with the cold in the legion of country we-t and northwest of us the present winter, is wholly without a parallel. We find tho following melan choly account iu illustration in the La Crosse Itopublican: "We learn from a gentleman residing near lied Kock or Brownsville, east of Austin, Minnesota Territory, that twelve per sons have crishcd iu tho snow storms this winter, lotwocn that placo und West Un Ion. It is reortod that two boys were getting wood with a yoke of oxen, when tho drifting snow filled up tho track and blinded thoir sight, on the return. Believing tho cattle would go homo, they fastened themselves to tho sled to prevent falliug off when too far frozou to help themselves on again. Tho cattle came home, sure enough, but tho brave little drivers had perished in each other's arms!" Some fifteen years ago, a man was driving a yoke of oxen from a particular place home, in what is now Warren county, in this State. A driving snow storm came on, he became bewildered, lost tho direction and was bonumbod with the cold. In this condition he had tho presence of mind and precaution to tio securely an arm to each ox's tail, ami trusted to the instinct of the brutes to find their way he was half dragged many miles, till he fouud himself safely conducted to tho door of his own cabin badly frozen, but safe in life and limb.

Letter from Mar. Wim. SS Rao. Epoy: I trust you are comforta ble in your sanctum. Truly this has keen a season of storms. The first I encountered was in vour citv of Chicaeo. where we parted amid tbe tumbling of buildings around us in ths fearful gale. On say re turn in ths stage, we suffered severely from cold, and had some detention. On the second of December, a few days after my reaching home, we had our first severe snow-storm in this region. This was the most terrible I ever witnessed. The average depth was supposed to be two feet, though it drifted to such a degree that it was impossiblo to estimste It In many places, tbe road was completely blocked. Thon, bsppily, I was st home with my family. So furiously did the wind drive the clouds of snow, that I lost my way in venturing loss than a hundred yards; and w oe to the luckless traveler that was rau't out at any distance on the prairie. On tbe 13th we had another vory severe, but with loss snow. I was then iu the territotory, above the Platte. In the midst of this, I wrote to tbo KsaCsrn Christian Ad vocate, and afterwards rode somo ten miles n company with one of our preachers to tho place of his quarterly meeting. So ontsnglod w ore we in the drifts, and blind ed by the driven snow, that it would have been impossible to keep our way, but for the intimate knowledge my compenloo had of object and localities along the road. The weather haa, with little intermission, lcu stormy ever since. It is stated, that within a fow counties on each side of tbe Missouri rivor, not less than 12 or 14 per sons have lost their lives, besides a number who have been deprived of hands or feet, or otherwise Injured in their jiersons.Traveling is positively hazardous to life. I have just returned from visiting a scene of suffering by special request. I give the detail aa nearly as I can ro collect them. Mr. David Poe, late of the vicinity of Cleveland, Ohio, uncle to Rev. A. Poe, of the Western Book Concern, arrived at this place Nebraska City, about a month since. Ho was a robust man of flftv-sia yours old, said to be in possession of con siderable pecuniary means. On the last day of November, ho started on foot, with his son about 18 years of ago, furnished with comforts, blankets, compass, knap sacks, provisions, Ac, "to hunt a claim," sud fixed bis camp for some days near the Little Nemshaw. Whilo there, the first storm camo on. This was Tuesday, tho 3 1 of December. They remained in camp until Wednesday, and then set their compass bomowart). Although somewhst bewildered, so resolute wore tbey in their purpose, that, finding a body of timber that ploased them, thoy "marked a claim." That night they spent in the timber, but from the fierceness of the wind had little benefit from it. Traveling through tho drift the next day, they reached a cabin, but found it abandonod; a bed, blankets, and buffalo robe being loft. Their provis ions were so frosen that they were unable to oat them, and their matches had become wet, so that they were left without fire or food from that timo. Thoy covered them solves as well as tbey could, and passed the night On tbe following morning their clothing being frosen to their limbs, they cut off their boots in scrips, and their pants to the kneos, and wrapped their bleeding foot and limbs in parts of their blankets. This operation consumed, as tbey supjtosod, four or five hours. Another night was spent at the same place. On the morning of Saturday, tbey determin ed to crawl out, and upon their hands and kneos try to find some human habitation. Aftor 'progressing a little way, the boy said to his father that he could go no farther; bo must die. They made their way back to the cabin. They laid down, and wrapped themselves in the covering; tbo father took the son in his arras, folded him to his breast, and lifted his heart to Qod in prayer. Soon a man entered the cabin, having been attracted by hearing them. Assistance was called; a kind of snow-boat was constructed, and thoy were taken to a house, and subsequently bro't to this place. Bi a few days, the son expirod. Tho father bos had a leg amputated. It is though the operation will have to bo repeated, by taking off more of tbe tho same limb perhaps tbs othsr, also, If the sufferer can bear It. The fingers on both hands are coming off at the middlo joint, besides other frosen parts. Tbe old man expresses a perfect confidence of to ceptanoe with Ood, and readiness to depart. Death would be a deliverance. Our quarterly meeting in this place Is in progress with some interest; and, be assured, wo enjoy our lino new church greatlyLarge as it is, it is well filled. Our anneal conference Is to convene here on the lHth of April, making our conference year of but six months' duration. I promised you occasional eorresjoiidenoe, but I fear to fresse your readers by writing from so chilly a latitude. Still, In tho midst of all, "claim hunters" are coming in, the excitement of speculation is unabated, ami expectation is ou tiptoe, as to tho prosjiccts of the country; and Still we are trying to labor for the salvation of the people. May Ood give success. Ws. II. Ooona. Nebraska City, Dec. 27m. fj"We presume that those of our citizens who saw the Prosecuting Attorney, yesterday, had but little difficulty in determining, in thoir own minds, why tho liailiff fees of Franklin County are so large. Some twonty witnesses were in attendance before tho Court, but tho Prosecutor was not at bis post to oxaeune them. Vmrnm aalle Timoi. Tho report here is thst he was too drunk to do busiucss. That roust be a mistake, for he kept more than ordinarily sober during our court, lie was elected however with a perfect km dge of his habits, and the inference is aj the Democratic i arty in thia District would prefer a drunken Democrat to a sober Republican.
