fttrThe Submarine has the Madison, recently sunk at Aurora, afloat enough to almost low her to the docks. Most all her freight has been taken out and put on barges.

Mr. G. left Salt Lake City on the 27th of November, with the mail on packed animals in company with G. A. Beardley , of New York. It had been snowing for seven or eight days before Mr. G. left the valley. The snow was from one to six feet deep in the Pig [sic] Mountains, and they had to tramp the snow, to pass with their animals. Second day out the snow was so deep that the company got lost and lay out all night, and the men in charge of the mail had their feet and hands frozen, and the boots had to be cut off their feet the next morning.

Liquor. Law Decision. —The Supreme Court, on appeals made to the November term, has decided that the repeal of the Prohibitory Liquor Law of 1 Sou does not revive tbe law of l-SfiJ. This leaves no restraining li-pior law on the statute book, and renders it more necessary for the Legislature to take some action in reference to the enactment of a restraining statute. — Slate Journal. ■

Death of Hon. Milton Gregg.

We neglected to notice the 1 death of Milton Gregg, editor of the New Albany JViJime. It occurred ou the 5th instant. The Seymour Times nays:—“His death was sudden, and was most probably caused by organic disease of the heart or arteries of both, although the Jjxiwne says ‘the immediate cauvo of ins death was paralysis; of the brain and of the whole nervous System;” an explanation anything but satisfactory ; or scientific. Hie death of Mr. Gregg will cause a pall of sadness to overshadow the entire State. He was one of the best informed and ablest politicians of Indiana. He has long been o distinguished political writer —dealing more in solid argument than in brilliancy of thought or beauty ol diction. His statements were ever reliable. Wo have tcad hitf paper several, years with profit and pleasure.” Tho Tribune of thc'Gth inst,, says:— , n \Yith a heart riven with sorrow, we sit down .to pen tho announcement of tho decease of the editor of this paper—Milton departed this life-yesterday morning. Tho deceased had been in ill: health for several months, and during that time was only occasionally able to attend to his editorial duties. He returned from Cincinnati on Friday.Iast, and for two or threo days was confined to his room. He gained strength however, and on Tuesday was out in the city twice. On Tuesday ovettiug he retired. at ten o’clock apparently ns well as usual, and in good spirits. Ho fllcpt well and easy, until about four o'clock yesterday morning, when Mrs. G. was awakened by his labored breathing. AU attempts to arouse Itim failed. Medical assistance was obtained | as soon as possible, but all efforts to af-| ford relief proved futile, and a few min-i ntes before five o’clock he expired.”

The third day they made Bridger at sunset, and after traveling about twenty miles got lost again, and were compelled again to lay down' in the snow till morning. Fourth day they made Big Sandy Station, and left there about 2 o'clock in the evening and traveled twenty miles, wind blowing from the east. The storm increased so as to prevent them from seeing 5 feet ahead, and compelled them again to lay up. They, camped in a hollow, and during the night snow drifted on them to the depth of three feet. Here the whole company almost froze. Mr. G. states that his feet and legs were so numb as to bc almost unable to stand up. The mail men having no bedding were compelled to walk around all night to keep from freezing. Fifth day—left early in the morning— traveled eight miles—one of the mail men’s face and hands froze, and the other was so far froze as to be almost asleep. Mr. G. here finding that the men would freeze, took them off and made them walk. They, then turned and went back 28 miles to Big Sandy. The next day the wind raised, and the they started in company with Mr. Ashton the mail agent. They reached the South Pass at dark. Here the wind raised again; the snow being drifted from five to ten feet deep, and they again become lost-—for three or four hours they wandered round in hopes to find the road, and their only hopes was to face the wind in order to reach Sweet Water, which they did. They then attempted to travel down this stream, but the drifted snow was so deep as to be impassible. They escaped, and Mr. Ashton froze one of his feet while in the bed. In the morning they left mules, mail, and all, and look it afoot down Sweet Water on the ice.-—Mr. Ashton begged to be left in the bed, as they bad to cut the boots off his feet. Mr. G. pulled off his buffalo moccasins and put them, on Mr. Ashton—leaving his feet with only a deer skin moccasin on. The whole company concluded their time was growing short, but like heroes, made a desperate effort—part of the time carrying Mr. Ashton. 'They reached a station about ten miles distant. They then had some hopes of making the trip, although the thermometer stood 27 degrees below zero. Mr. Sanders, the surveyor on the new road south of Laramie, had Mr. Miller stationed at this place with a barometer and thermometer in order to take notes of the weather. The oldest mountaineers, one in particular who lives close by the station, states that it was the coldest wreather they had experienced for thirty years. ~~~~~
