orer.croWding Steamboats.

The Mayor of St. Louis, under the nstruc-
tons OF the Common Council of that city, has
memorialized Congress in reference to the
great and growing evil of over crowding
steamboats, on our western waters. Congress
is respectfully asked
'To enact such law as will limit the num-
Der of passengers on any boat in proportion
to the tonnage, or what would be more just
and practical regulation, requiring a sufficient
number of square feet of deck room to be ap-
propriated to each passenger the law to pro-
vide proper penalties for the enforcement
thereof"
This good movement, and will receive
favor among river men. We hope its impor-
lance will be regarded by Congress at an
early day.

RAISING PLANTS FROM CUTTINGs.-The
present month is a good time for setting cut
tings of roses, geranIums, and most other
house plants. 1t may be done succef sfully
any time during spring or summer, or even
in winter with the aid Of hot house or warm
room TO promote their growth. Cuttings of
deciduous plants like the lemon scented YER
bena, should be formed of the present seasons
growth hence they cannot be taken off until
about midsummer.
Most cuttings form roots only at the joints,
hence the lower end should be cut OF smooth
Just below the Joint Cut off the leaves along
the stem, only leaving two or three at the top.
The stem should not be more than three go
five inches in length
Cuttings of geraniums and few other plaDts,
which take root easily, may be planted in the
open ground but n ost kinds do better when
treated more carefully in flower pots. If
deep roots are used, fill them quarter full of
bits of broken pots or gravel, then mellow
sandy earth and set the cuttings (three or
four in pot) with the lower ends sloping out
ward so as TO touch the side of the pot II
difficult to take root, like mirtIe, oleander, &c,
it will add success to cover the cuttings with
large sized tumblers to preserve a moist at
mosphere-or cover with pane of window
glass laid fiat on the surface of the pot-the
earth and cuttings being an inch or two lower
than the rim.
Another and more ingenious method OF
managing difficult cuttings is here given:
Take large sized flower pot and fill it
one-quarter to one third full of potcherds,
then take a small flower pot and stop the bot
tom firmly with clay, say one inch in depth
set this in the middle of the large pot, so that
the rims of both will be the same height, then
fill the space ar, uud the outside of the small
pot with sandy earth, and insert the cuttings
around this space, so that the lower ends will
touch the outside of the inner pot, then fill
the small pot with water, and replenish it as
often as it soaks away. This will keep the
cuttings sufficiently moist without danger o.

ATTEMPT AT SUIcIDE,-Ye after
noon about 4 o'clock, quite young woman,
richly dressed, stepped aboard the Covingfon
ferry boat apparently to cross to the opposite
side, but when the boat had gained the mid
die of the stream she stepped 10 the door of
the cabin and jumped into the river.
In her descent her dress, which was satin,
filled with air, which prevented her sinking,
and carried her lightly down stream to the Vi
cinity of Plum street, when she was picked
up by a skiff. She was taken ON board the
ferry and brought back to the foot of Walnut
street, where she met her brother, who hap
pcned to be at Longshore's tavern. Every
effort TO learn their names proved of no avail.
ANoTHER.-A Mrs. Howard, milner
Fifth street, attempted suicide yesterday by
cutting her throat in several places. She
was taken to the hospital.

SLAs WRIGHT AT REvIEW.-Everyb
in the Union has heard of Siias Wright-the
Statesman, but there are very few, we mag
inc. who ever heard of Silas Wright the (ien-
eral. He was one Of the last persons in the
world whose appearance and public course
indicated any taste for military life. Yet IN
his own town he seems always to have been
fond ofimproving the mllita-and as far hack
as 1922 he raised and organized an indepen-
dent company Of r;hemen, whom he comman-
ded for several years, and no one of whom it
is said, was ever known to vote against him.
He afterwards became successfully Major
Colonel, and Brigadier General, and is rep
resented to have been both popular and effec
tive in each of these positions. Whatever he
undertook TO do he was in the habit Of dong
well, and it was no trifing circumstance which
could turn him aside from any duty. As
characteristic of.the man, his biographer re-
lated an incident which happened at a review
O! General Wrght7s regiment in October 49,
rs.
1t was a cold day, and during the morning
a dark heavy cloud had been hanging over
the muster field which did not burst however
until after the line had been formed for the
standing review. Then, az the General and
his staff approached the right of the regiment,
and had uncovered their heads, the wind COM
menceQ blowing d hurricane, ana InP RAIN
and hail fell in torrents. At this moment
every company but one in the whole line fed
to their tents. But the General and one of
the staff, the Brig-Inspector, moved slowly
down the line with uncovered heads until they
arrived in front of the only company which
y aited to receive them, and which proved to
be no other than the old rife company which
had been formed by General Wright. Here
he rained in his horse, and while the rain
and hail were peltng his naked head. address
ed them thus:
That's right, boys; that's The kind of SOL
diers like knew | should have 4 COM
pany to review lift rained pichforks, unless
they came tines dol1nWdrdn
At the close ofthe day, his only rebuke TO
the runaway soldiers was simply TO remind
them that they seemed to have gained moth
ing by their flight, insomuch as they were
quite as wet, apparently as those who had
kept their places in the line.

DEALINGS WITH THE DEAD.-Under this
head, a writer in the Boston Transcript quotes
tie following:
A peasant of Poictou was married TO a
woman, who, after long fit Of sickness, fell
into profound lethargy, which so closely re-
Sembled death, that the poor people gathered
round, and laid out the peasants helpmate
Tor burial. The peasant assumed becoming
expression of sorrow, which utterly belied
that exceeding great joy, that is natural to
every man, when he becomes perfectly as
sured that the tongue of a scolding wife is
hushed forever.
The people of that neighborhood were very
poor; and either from economy or taste, cof-
fins were not used among them. The corpses
were borne to the grave, simply enveloped in
tt cir shrouds, as we are told by CASTELAR,, is
the custom among the turks. Those who
bore the body, moved inadvertently, rather
too near hedge, at the road side, and sharp
thorn prcking the leg Of the corpse. the trance
was broken: the supposed deiunct sprang up
on end, and began to scold as vigorously as
ever.
The disappointed peasant had fourteen
years more OF it. At the expiration of that
term, the good woman pinned away, and APP
peared TO die once more. She was again
borne toward the grave. When the bearers
drew near TO the spot where the remarkable
revival had occurred, upon former occasion.
the widoWer became very much excited and
at length, unable to restrain his emotions. au-
dibly exclaimed:
''Dont go too near that hedge !"

steamer MOHAWK Again.

On the authority ola communication hand
ed US for publication last Saturday, we in
dulged in some severe censures upon the Of
ficers of the steamer Mohawk, for their con-
duct in relation to the drowning of deck
passenger who fell overheard near Golconda.
In order that our readers may have both sides
of the question: on the authority of an indi-
vidual who was passenger on the boat at
the time of the occurrence of the accident
above spoken Of we here state that exertions
to save the unfortunate man from drowning
acre made.
To show that the Indignation at the officers
of the Mohawk, was not general among the
passengers, satisfactory reference may be had
to the Louisville Courier of Saturday. in
which these officers are highly euogized and
recommended, through the publication Of
card, signed by every cabin passenger, lady
and gentleman.
We did not object to the nature Of the COM
munleation handed US to publish. Had it
been couched in milder language it would
have been published as a matter of course
But our refusal will be stamped upon every
communication we receive the publication Of
which would probably lead to provoking per-
sonal controversies. Inasmuch as the com
munication alluded to last Saturday won Id
have called forth an emphatic contradiction
from those who differ Herewith, we think our
course but proper one in refusing TO give il
an insertion in our paper. If some Of ouT
friends who became so inconsolaby indignant
at US in this matter, will look al things they
now are, they will not discover that enormi-
ty in our course which at first excited theiI
indignation. We feel fully disposed 10 dc
justice to all, and we presume we have
done so. This subject will be discussed nc
farther in the columns Of the Journal.

The steamer Julia will leave our Wharf
to-day with a pleasure party for the first lock
of Green River. Persons DESTROYS of recre-
ating themselves, now have an excellent op-
portunity to do so. The boat leaves at two
O'Clock this afternoon, and all who intend to
join the party must be on board at that time.
The Julia is comfortable packet and COM
manded by such men as will contribute much
to the hilarity of the excursion.

The Providence journal, whose editor has
watched these matters with more attention
than any other paper in the country, is deer
dedly of opinion that Sir JOHN FRANKLIN is
still dtiUe. They suppose he is further TO the
West and North than the English navigators
have imagined and that he is rather to be
sought for through Behring's Straits. 1t is
supposed he might have entered that sea
which is believed to lie around the Pole, and
have progressed too far to the west to be
reached through Baffih's Bay. Some navi-
gators: after passing over the immense icy
barrier, have discovered an open sea beyond,
through which Sir John may have passed.

~ The Lafayette Insurance Company of
Indiana is about to pursue a new business in
New York. 1t has a capital Of $4,000, which
will be employed in insuring the full payment
of notes, bonds and other evidences Of debt
in that city.
The Courier remarks:
The enterprise is q new one, butt has long
been discussed and agitated as a necessary
appendage to the growing business of the
city. For this convenience we are mainly
indebted 10 Messrs. Woodward & Duesnhery,
who have turned their attention to this mat
ter for the last eight years and we must say,
in justice to these gentlemen, after viewing
their modass operandi, that the plan is well
conceived, and cannot fail to be successful, as
their past business fully shows.
This is certainly novel undertaking. we
presume that the payment Of all debts will
be guaranteed except printers bills. We
have some hard cases that we would pay a
high rate fpremium on, TO have the pay
ment insured.
