GG- The editor of the Bellows Falls
Argus is in very bad humor, and charges
us with misstating his position on the
on the Nebraska bill. We admit that
we were a little mistaken. Instead of
giving that bill a "StrcnuouS support
We admit that the argus gave it a very
weak one. That it copied articles in
favor of the bill took ground in its do
fencc;and was quoted by the Albany Ar-
gas and other Democratic papers us being
on that eide, is i~ndisputablc truth.
The Argus now deliberately repeats
what it before said, that the Nebraska
bill is not made a test of party ortho-
doxy. Our quotation from the Washing

at rest-to say nothing Of the brow
beating course of the majority at the late
Democratic Convention. Every well.
informed reader Of the Argus knows the
falsity Of its statement.

FLORA LINDSAY oil PASSAGES ! AN
EvENrFULLIFe.-This new work ofNIrs.
Noodles is truly a delightful one. Under
the light veil of fiction, and an assumed
name, it is in reality an autobiography
of that amiable and exemplary woman,
orr authoress herself. 1t describes in a
life-like and interesting manner the
scenes that she passed through, and the
characters that she met both before she
left England, and also while on a long
and perilous passage across the ocean.
Though it bears the stamp of truth on
every page, it exceeds any work of fiction
we have ever read in enduring and ever.
varying interest.
In this line of truthful and simple de-
scription, Mrs. Noodle has no equal, and
the whole is enlivened by a vein Of quiet
humor that is really refreshing. This
work ends where her former work.
:" Roughing 1t in the Bush" commences
AS all who have read the former will
want this, we predict an immense sale
for this book. Those who have not read

in the repeal Of the Missouri compro.

Representatives were found to lay this
sacrifice at the feet of slavery, it is not
strange that Southern men,in the ~exulta.
ton and insolcnce of triumph, should
outertain such odious expressions, and
even give uttcrancc to them in the Of
f%cnsive manner which follows:

in the room of the steward, Mr.. j. II.
ALLISON. About 10 O'Clock, the steward
and his wife being alone in the room,
opened the box, when it exploded with
terrific force, mangling the bodies OF
both in a horrible Imanncr. Mrs. AL.
LIsoN had both of her arms blown off
and her skull fractured, while Mr.. A.
was d%readfully manglod, The furniture,
windows, ceiling Of the room, &c. were
shatterd to atoms. The Indications arc.
that the box contained a bomb.shell of
about six inches in diameter.
The ALLlsoNs are both dead. Mr.. A..
made a statement before his death,
which, with the information obtained to.
day, will probably lead to the detection
of the guilty parties. 1t is said that a
fellow named CONwELL committed a
murder some time since, and that ALA.
SON was acquainted with the facts, conse.
quently it is supposed that CoNwrLL de-

Francis ?. Blair, of the Washington
Globe during Gen. Jackson's Adminis-
t%ration, and his son, the accomplished
editor of the Benton organ at St. Louis,
are among the foremost opponents of
the repeal of the Missouri Compromise.
The elder Blair is strong for a union of
men of all parties, who are opposed to
the extension of slavery aud for bull
ding tho Pacific Railway, and for other
great Western and commercial interests
