Ice Swamp near the South Pass.

A correspondent of the Rochester Advertiser.
writing from Salt Lake, describes natural curios-
ity existing on the Sweet Water River, few miles
above the well known Devils Gate below the South
Pass. in the shape of what he calls an ice swamp,
that is marshy glen on the south bank of the
stream, in which, after digging about eighteen inch
es of peaty SOIL stratum of ice is reached, from
two to six inches thick. He says it is, pure and
perfect ice, but adds. somewhat conadctorily, that
it has "a saline or alkaline taste Be this, hoUev-
er, as it may, we need not go so far as the South
Pass to wonder over the rarity of soil beneath
which ice is to be found in the summer time
There is similar curiosity existing in Hamshire
county, Virginia in the ice mountain. it called,
high hill upon the northwestern side of which
is stratum Of loose rocks, some three feet deep,
on removing which ice may be discovered in un-
known abundance, at all seasons of the year.

The Law OfKindness Illustrated.
The Philadelnhia INQUIRER relates the foIlowil


The Philadelphia Inquirer relates the following
touching incident of recent occurrence:
Only few days since, an aged citizen of Phil
adephia was waited upon by stranger who ask
ed few moments conversation with him in
private. The opportunity was afforded with great
cheefulness. The Western merchant-for such in
fact, he was-was ushered into the parlor of the
Philadelphian, when something like the following
conversation took place.
"You seem to have forgotten me Mr.. H?,
81 have an indistinct recollection of having seen
you before and the tone of your voice is not unfam-
iliar; but beyond this my memory fails.''
Ny name is Charles B, and twenty years
ago was an inmate of Philadelphia Prison, of
which you were a frequenter, a benevolent and
kind hearted vistor.''
Iremember,I remembers the other, brighten
ing, smiling and grasping the hand of the stranger
that hope, may feel satisfied that all has gone
right with you"
A tear trembled in the eye of the other at so
cordial and kindly recognition; his voice failed
for moment-but then rallying again, he pro-
ceeded to tell his story At the age of fifteen he
was neglected orphan, and with fine natural tai
ents, cheerful disposition and good heart, he
was thrown into the society of the vile and dsso-
Lutte, in of the most wretched sections of Phil
adeIpna county. lhere IN connection with sever
al other lads,equay deserted or misled he commit
ted, arrested for and convicted Of petty theft
While in prison he was visited again and again
by the Philadelphia PhiIanthropist, who succeeded
not only in eradicating the vicious views he had
imbided, but in showing him the folly of vice and
the certainty of its punishment, and inspiring him
with determination to act correctly the moment
he should be released The visitor satisfied with
his sincerity and gradually took deep interest in
his case. At the expiration of his sentence, he
provided him with means and having stated all
the facts in all confidential manner to a friend in
the West, obtained him situation in a fiourishing @
city of that section of the Union. The youth was
overwhelmed with gratitude. He had found a
friend for the first time in his brief career His
course from that moment was onward. He speed
ily won the confidence of his employer on whose
death, ten years thereafter, he succeeded to a
large share in his business

reputable and prosperous house of-&Co,of-
and have visited Philadelphia, not only on busi-
ness but with the object of seeking ont and return
ing my heart warm acknowledgements to nv early,
my ever cherished, my often remembered bene-
factor"
The old merchant wept with Joy at such a re-
form, and acknowledged that this single incident
had repaid him for the hours and days and weeks
ne had devoted, always prayerfully, to the blessed
couse of kindness and prison reform.

lions of his Characteristic style:

CALHoUN's REPLY TO BENToN.--The
Charleston Courier contains Mr.. Cal
houn's reply to the attack upon him by
Colonel Benton. The Columbia Tele-
graph furnishes US with an abstract of
il.
The repy CONNER ces with an ex-
animation into Mr.. BIS. pretext that the
resolutions introduced by Mr.. c. in the
Senate in February, ls47, aimed at
disunion. Mr.. Calhoun quotes these
resolutions, in few terse and preg-
nant paragraphs, proves the utter fulfill.
ty of such an assertion, showing clear
ly that they assert only fundamental
propositions which have not and cannot
be denied.
The still more frivolous pretext that
Mr.. Calhoun was the real author of the
Wilmot Proviso, and that the Missouri
Compromise was identically the same
measure in another form, are dissolved
and shown to be mere bubbles of Mr..
Benton's brain, unfounded in fact and
false in theory--while his assent to the
Oregon bill with that obnoxious feature
in it, is held up as commentary on the
truth of his profession ofzeal for South.
ern rights. He then passes on to the
charge made by Mr.. Benton of his hav.
ing while a member Of Mr.. Monroe's
cabinet, admitted the constilutionality
of the Missouri restriction, and shows
that the pretended proofs adduced to
sustain it are utterly unreliable-no
written opinions having been submit
ted for want Of time, and the diary of
Mr.. Adams not being reliable evidence
on the point, from his want either Of
memory or impartiality.
Mr.. c. then proceeds 10 recapitulate
the action of Congress, and his own
course, and Mr.. Benton's respectively
on the different questions that have
arisen in Congress involving the rights
of the slaveholding States and passes
rapidly in review the attitudes taken by
each in relation to the Florida treaty,
and to the annexation of Texas, unfold
ing the inconsistencies and treachery
ofthe Missourians in these matters
The Creole and Encomium case is also
explained, Mr.. Benton's assertions dis.

pendent Treasury bill, as measure
fraught with danger to the liberties Of
the people; as an Internal invention OF
the President and his Secretary, by
which one kind Of currency was to be
provided for government, and another
for the people; and now he floods the
air with appeals to stand by it, as ba.
sis upon which the disbanded Democ.
racy may be rallied! whilst his ink turns
pale at the frightful vigor, with which
he deals on, frightful encomiums upon
it, as the perfect production of human
wisdom! am reminded of remark
of the lamented and revered Silas
wright. He said "that Richie expert
enced no difficulty, at all, in changing
his position; but that that very facility
extinguished every particle of his in
fluence." He may come right; but he
will present spectacle which will chal.
lenge the contempt Of every one who
shall have a fair claim to be ranked as
a human being. Look at him, sitting
at the seat Of Government. A Con-
vention of shareholders is assembled to
hold lamentations over the advance oil
the free spirit of the land, and consum-
mate their plans for the dissolution Of
the Union. A STAKEHOLDER occupies
the chair of State, knitting his brows
to Indignantly frown down the effort;
of freemen for freedom: and the Union
is threatened by Southern men on
every hand.--Does he speak, Does
he sound an alarm and give. notice o.
danger? No. But there he sits lament
ing over the removal of Collector o.
Customs, or pregnant with holy horror
when the head Of decapitated inspec
tor rolls from the block! Yes there h,
sits like superanuated market ,oOman
by the road side, crying ouer her broken
eggs!
In my opinion, the only tune which
he can play upon his cracked organ, t.
which the Democracy can universally
respond. is this:

Let US give thanks with grateful soul
To Him who sendeth all.

Though grief and tears may dim our joys,
And care and strife arrest.
IT'S man, too often, that alloys
The lot his Maker blest:
While sunshine lights the boundless sky,
And dew drops feed the sod
While stars and rainbows live on high
Let US give thanks to God.
We ill the earth in labor's health.
We plant the acorn cup.
The fields are crowned with golden wealth
The green tree sPtingeih up.
The sweet, eternal waters gush
From fountain and from vale:
The vineyards blush with purple flush,
The yellow hop leaves trail.
And while the Harvest filings its gold,
And cowsips deck the sod
While lmpid streams are clear and cold
Let US give thanks TO God
The flower yields its oder breath,
AS gentle wings 60 past
The grasshoPper that turks beneath
Chirps merrly and fast
The ring dove COOS upon the spray,
The lsrks full anthems pour,
The bees start with jocund lay,
The waves sing on the shore
Hosannas fill the wood and wild.
Where human step ne'er trod-
And nature. like an unweaned child,
Smiles on its parent God.
Say, Brothers. shall the bird and bloom
Thus teach and teach in vain?
Shall all the love-rays tina. illumins,
Be lost in clouds OF paint
> Shall hearts be dead and vision blind
To all that mercy deals?
!, Shall soul and reason fail 10 find

Let US give thanks 10 God.
