The food en the upper Mississippi and its tribu-
tariee has beon several fest higher than in 1874,
and the damage has been immense. Mills, dwell
lnep, harms, fences and stock have been swept off,
and thousands Of the finest farms in the bottoms
have been submerged, and the crops DESTROYED.
The Des Moines, the st. Peten, and all the upper
streams, have overilowed the surrounding country

1t il a little remarkable, that while there is a
diminution in England and Ireland, there has been
great increase in Scotland. The licenses for the
sale Of beer have fallen from 45,717, in 1885, to
sc, 200 in 1s49.
I Surely these statistics may well be considered
as furnishing substantial proof that the laboring
millions Of England are advancing in the scale of
humanity. Individual instances, where limited
classes are suffering, to be sure exist. But they
form an exception, and not the general rule Let
it be borne in mind that two hundred and fifty mil
lions Of dollars annually expended by the labor
efs Of England in spirits, malt liquors and tobacco
This is the worst tyranny which exsts-this is far
more oppressive than tithes or window-tax. How
vastly this sum would add to the comfort, to the
to the improvement Of these families.

Bishop Ivss.-The Raleigh IN. CO. Register, in
speaking of the late Episcopal Convention in that
State, says:
The Bishop of the Diocese and twenty eight
clergymen with fortyive lay delegates, represent.
ing twenty-four parishes, were present. This
attendance was much more full than has ever
before been in the diocese. This was caused by
the troubles which have occurred within the last
three years in regard to an alleged Romish ten
dency in the teachings and practices Of the Bishop
and some of the clergy-chieay or altogether those
brought here from other States. We learn from
the Observer, that the Bishop made to the Con-
yention full and most emphatic retraction of all
attributes mainly to Violet ,:.A' nross
trated his mental and physical system.
The discussions in the Conytption were earnest,
interesting and sometimes escssn. The principal
speakers were, of the clergy, Messrs Wat
son, Huske, Smedes, Geer, @ehRs9l.,and McRae.
OF the laity, Hon. George E!a5sasss. Hon. Rob
ert Strange, ]. H. Haughton, Josiah Collins, DR..
F. ]. Hilb G. W. Mordecai, Hon. 4. Hines, etc.
A satisfactory arrangement Of all difficulties was
finally perfected and unanimously agreed to, under
circumstances of impressive soemnity The Con-
vention adjourned on Monday night last.

Kentucky Ahead of the Union - Female Voters.
A late law in Kentucky, which, in part, reads as
follows, gives women, under certain restrictions,
the right to vote:
"It shall be the duty of all the qualified voters
in each School District, widows having children
of the proper age incuded,) or such as may attend
on the first Saturday in April in each year, to meet
at their Schoolhouse, or other place, and to elect
three School Trustees, to superintend," etc.
We hope the Women's Right Society will prop
erly appreciate this evidence of gallantry on the
part Of the Legislature of one State. Newport

1915 there have been repealed taxes ofivarous de-
scriptions which yielded annually $4,000, 600.

The troops for New Merico.--A short time ago
the melancholy intelligence was received, that the
the cholera had appeared and was doing severe
deaths work in Col Summers troops on their way
to New Mexico, The following from the St. Louis
Inteligencer is bad enough, but robs us of nearly
all our fears for the future success Of COL Summers
command:
1.-THE command of troops under Col. Sumner,
which left Fort Leavenworth recently, for Mexico,
we are grated to learn, have not suffered to that
extent from cholera that we had been led 10 believe.
Mr.. Wolfe, a passenger down on the Saranak on
Saturday. informs us he left the command at Coun-
ell Grove on the 10th inst, and up that time only
twenty five or thirty Of the troops had died, and
that Dr.. Kennedy was the only officer whose case
had terminated fatally. MI. Wolfe attributes the
sickness mainly to the imprudence Of the soldiers
in eating unripe berries and drinking too freely
impure water. Shortly after the cholera broke out
a panic seized the whole command, and some sixtl
or seventy deserted. When Mr.. Wolfe left them
the panic was over and the troops marching a

Death of Gen. N. Arbuckle.-This distinguished
and good man, breathed his last about half-past
twelve o'clock M on Wednesday, at his quarters
in the garrison, near this place He was taken
sick on Saturday night, and fingered until the time
mentioned above. Gen. A. was about seventy-f
years of age, and has spent upwards of fifty years
in the army Of the United States, and has been on
this frontier twenty-eight thirty years. At the
time Of his death, he was commander Of heseventh
military department of the United States army,
and had held that station for several years. and was
peculiarly calculated for the office, being thoroughly
acquainted with the Indians, and with Indian
character. He always had their confidence, and by
that MEANS kept up and maintained friendly rela-
tons with them on behalf of the United States.

The Tehuantepec Treaty.--In speaking Of the
rejection of the Tehuantepec Treaty by the Mex
lean Senate, and the amendment Of the Garay
Grant, of which we recently received news from
Mexico, the Springfield Republican thus briefly
recapitulates the history of the Garay Grant;
In ls42, Jose de Garay asked the Mexican Gov;
ernment for right Of way across the isthmus OF
Tehuaptepec, for the establishment OF inter-
oceanic communication. Santa Anna. then Pres
ident granted the request, giving certain privileges
and requiring certain conditions. Soon after tnis,
waste lands were placed in Garayls possession py
the Government, in accordance with its conces'
eiops and an extension of year granted Tor the
commencement of the work. Every thing to this
point was in good faith and without flaw. The
difficulties with the United States then interefed
with the commencement of the work, and on the
| 5th day Of November, 1886, decree was issued
by Gen. Salas, then Dictator, confirming to Garay
every previous act Of legislation upon the SUBJECT
This last decree Of Gen. Salas the. Mexican Sen
ate now declare null and void, although, in the
/ negotiations for treaty with our Government, 81
the close Of the Mexican war, the Council OF MIN
i isters distinctly recognized the existence OF the
fesapt, and made it ground for refusing to the
United States q similar right Of way.
| We see that party of surveyors have just re-
i turned 10 New Orleans, having surveyed routt
i for railroad across the Isthmus at Tehuantepec
The lands connected with the grant they say ar
1 the finest in the world. They think the lie
huanlepec route is the route, and the one which
will supersede all others. If this be so, the Me1i
can Senate may as well cave in first as last, TO
the road must go there. --.,

New Political divisions on the
Pacific Coast.

A movement has lately been started By
the settlers in that part of the Oregon Terrific
~, whichEe north Of the Columbia Territory
The total absence of all municipal, law and
civil officers; the great distance from the
seat Of the present govenmenti and many
other reasons are urged in favor Of the propo.
sed measure. The proposition meets with
much favor throughout all Oregon. A Con.
yention has recommended the division, and
at the session of goth August appointed 1
committee to prepare a suitable memorial on
the Subject to Congress,
Previous TO the session of the Convention,
a committee on districts and counties, divi
ded the Territory north of the Columbia int
twelve counties, with well prescribed boun.
darys. The Convention is to meet in May
next, to form Estate Convention preparatory
to asking admission into the Union as one of
the States thereof, provided Congress does
not previously organize a Territorial Govern
ment.
While that is going on in Oregon, a strong
effort is being made in California, to have the
southern portion of that State organized into
"a seperate territory. We learn from a pri-
vate source that the election of a United
States Senator will be very apt to be subser-

the division is to secure a slave State on the
Pacific. That we see charged, though we
have no evidence as yet, to confirm it, We,

The Legislature of California meets, we
believe, the first Monday in January, when
the proposed division will be brought before
