No Steerage passengers taken by these
vessels. By other vessels, (not clippers)
Steersge 500 TO Sl20.
A letter in the New York Times, dated
Panama, October LIST. says there are one
thousand passengers at that place, by the
Ohio and Falcon. More than niue tenihs
are laborers, and at least five hundred and
fifty cf the Ohio's passengers footed it
over the Cruces Road. Many of them
have gone there with the idea that they
can get up the coast in opposition lines
! of steamers for from $50 to S75. The
writer says that there is no opposition
boat a Panama now, and the Pacific Com
pany charges, in the Tennessee, $3.50 for
Cabin and Sl25 for S.eerage, and in their
other boat, $500 for Cabin, and 500 in
Storage, which prices, in fact, are as
cheap as the Company can carry for. and
make any money. A man, even if, he is
going in the Steerage from Panama to
California, should always have at least
SI7o, and then he will not have any too
much left when he arrives in San Fran
cisco. after getting on shore, TO live on
for day or two.

son and lie Better's store. on Main street

Der of costly articles under her mantlla.

n MAN POISONED BY HIS w lf E.-OUi
village has been thrown into much eX-
element by the death of a man named
Peter Emo, under circumstances which
give rise to strong suspicion that he had
been poisoned by his wife, with the aid
and assistance of man called VIM. East
man, who boarded in their house. On
Thursday, jury consisting OF the fol-
lowing persons, James Birdsall, Stephen
Moore. Geo F. Hood, II. M. Henderson,
VIM. Nj. Thurber, and Ashahel Fuller,
empanneled to hold an inquest as to the
cause of the death of Emo.
Tie inquisition was held before Squire
johnny, and conducted by the prosecuting
AttOrney-the examination of witnesses
etc., occupying two days. and at the con-
clusion of the testimony the jury with
out hesitation returned the following
verdict.
THAT the said Peter Emo came to his
death upon the 5th day of October, 1851,
at Flint. in the county aforesaid, by
means of poison administered to him by
Mary Emo his wife, and William East
man."
Eastman and Eno's wife are now in
the custody of the sbrilf. They fed up
on the suspicion of foul play being a
reused, before the death of Emo, but were
arrested on "Wednesday, at Davidson

Both he and Eno are said To be English

MICHIGAN SOUTHERN RAILRoAD.-The
company is progressing with the section
of the Road between South Bend and La
porte rapidly. Abundance of iron ha
been received, and the Company is con
fiden of having the locomotive reach La
porte in November. The section be
tween Laporte and BaileytOwn is partly
graded, and the work is going on rapidly
From Michigan City, the cars run GU
twenty miles, nearly half way to Chicago
and now that plenty of iron is received
it is to be completed with greater rapid
ty. A steam pile driver will commence
operations in few days on the larg
marsh, which the Road will have to eros
seven miles south of this city. The mars
is about three miles across, and the trac
has to be supported on piles over its en-
tire breadth. We learn it is the inten
tion of the contractors to commence In
short time laying down the track at thi
end OF the line.
In this connection it may not be on
of place to state that arrangements hav
been made to run a line of fast coache
from this city to the termination of tn
Road, until it is completed, which will
probably be some time in February

The Mormons had great celebration
of their National Jubilee on the Oath of
July. at Great Salt Lake City. At this
celebration, Latter day prophet, one
s. Nj. Grant, gave the following senti-
ment, which to say the least, is highly
dubious:-"Brigham Young is to the
sons of the earth, what kolob is to the
pianets--a little ahead of them: | won
der ii the planets give light to Kolob, or
koIob to them? Softly crept down by
the burn side, to view the small fishes,
where the waters SO gently did glide
up hill. Hilloo! We rulers of the earth!--
The world is wrong side up. Kolob is
the Great Governing Planet"

electricity for propeling box contain
ing letters over wires from place to place

imeGts over wires of six hundred yards in
length, has, it is said, worked to a

The Boston Transcript says that par

past experimenting for the same end with
a good prospect of success; and that the
project has been thought plausible by
some of the most practical men, who have
contributed literally towards its accom-
plishment.

A CURIOUS GEOLOGICAL FAcT.--A late
English paper says that few weeks ago
a stone-cutter a: Dumfries obtained a
large block of red sand stone from the
low quarry at Locksrbriggs. While
squarring the stone, loose layer was
removed, and on the face Of the block
thus displayeda long indentation was
formed. 1t proved to be the mark of a
human foot. which must have been i'm

course of ages afterwards, became petri

press was considerable. from quarters of
an inch to an inch, ard the whole print
of the foot was sharp and distinct.

RHODE lsLAED.-The Providence Post (0Pp)
divides the new Legislature in Grand Commit
mittee as follows:
Whigs---..50 OPp...53 Vacancy. -. L
The journal tWhig) makes 81 Wings to So
0Pp.-both parties claiming Stephen Wilcox
Free Soil, choseA from Westerly. Providence
was to elect one more, and we presume be is Op-
position. When thing goes, il had better go
through, and we trust the Opposition have the
Legislature. They may do some good with it
who knows?
BY the way, the following from the PrOvi-
dence Journal is good
CoALITIoN.-There is q dispute between the
Boston Post and The Times of the same city
whether the ticket which has succeeded at oar
late election was coalition" ticket or not, the
latter taking the Affirmative and the former she
negative. The Post is right The Tunes 10 wrong.
There was no coalition. When a 10 an goes into
the market and buys horse, he does not form
coalition with the horse he buys him, uses him,
and keeps him or sells him, as the occasion may
dena There is certainly no coalition In this.
So the Democratic candidates bought the party
with so much money. The money was fairly
paid, the party was duly transferred. The bar
gain was duly kept on both sides, which has not
always been the case in political bargains, as the
Times and Post very well know. Our Democrats
are more honest than those OF Massachusetts
When they receive the pay, they always deliver
the article, whether it be O vote at an election or

The Brazilian Slave Trade.

Private advices from Rio Janeiro say: The
Government 10 periling its very existence in its
sHorts to suppress the Save Trade. The once
notorious slave steamer the Serpente, NOW the
Gofnho of the Brazilian psvy,) has made several
captures. Last week she carried of 200 newly
Imported negroes from the Island Of Marambaia.
They are supposed to have belonged to Joaquin
.BNves, the well known and opulent slave dealer.
Ihs man Ia the owner Of ten large tarendas, and
Ae master Of some $500 slaves. His large pos.
sessions give him great political influence and
this seizure of his slsves shows plainly the ener-
~ snd determination of the Government. IL is
o be hoped, now that the Brazilian authorities
have given such substantial proofs OF their good
hiih and sincere determination to put an end to
the traffic, that the officers OF the cruisers will
abstain from interfering, and confne their opera,
tn1s to the high seas. Irritating che people Will
