have been seized in Wisconsin and upper

formed of the extent of these thieving ope-

when we state that the amount seized at

i M. & M. RAILROAD The M. & M. Rail-
(road has three divisions amounting in fact
to three distinct roads. The first division
extends from Davenport, opposite Rock Is
land, one Of the most beautiful and enter
prising towns on the Mississippi, by the way
of Iowa City and Fort Des Moines, to Coun-
Gil Bluffs. The distance is 300 milea. The
road is under contract 81 miles to Iowa City,
and is to be completed to that point by the
hrst OF December next. At that time the
bridge over the Mississippi is to be finished
and we shall be in unbroken railroad con-
ncction with the capital of Iowa. The en-
tire line is to be finished to Council Bluffs
10Y the frst of January. 1857. Itneeds but
to be added that Messrs. Sheffield & Farm
ham have the contract, to assure the public
that the work will be done at the time spec
lhed. The country through which it passes
il remarkably fine, and We look forward to
the time when We shall have direct rail.
road communication with tho Missouri river
as one OF the most important events in the
history of Chicago.
Inc second division of the road extends
from ,r davenport, by tho way of Muscatine,
washington ana Oskaloosa, to the mouth
OF Fiatae river. The length OF the road
Will be 5oo miles. Thirty miles OF the road
20 Mnscatlne is to be finished by the first of
december next, giving us the trade of an.
other large and aourishing city IN Iowa, and
the region to which it owes it's growth and
Importance. Ninety miles more of the road
to Oskaloosa will be put under contract in
the spring and will probably be completed
within the next year or eighteen months.
The third division of the road is to run in
northwestern direction from Muscatine to
Cedar Rapids, distance of fifty miles. 1t
is the intention of the company to put it
under contract early in the spring. and the
entire road is to be finished by the first of
April. 1865. This road may be ultimately
extended to Minnesota as fast as the settling
OF the country along the road will REQUIRE.
That will be at no distant day.-Chicago

considerably injured by the breaking up of
the ice. The gorge of ice moved down a
short distance, on the night of the LIST inst,
sinking three boats-Asia, st. Ange, and
Gordon City-and badly damaging three
others-F. Aubrey, Elvira and Excel. The
three boats sunk will probably be lost; their
machinery and cabin furniture can be saved.
The other three will no doubt be repaired.
The six boats mentioned were valued in the
aggregate at $ll2,0 700, and were insured for
about two thirds this sum. Tho G.. w.

the system of paying ministers for their

He thinks moreover tina. if the clerical BROTH

"pay system brings wolves into the shep-
herds Office, as naturally as geese and chick

their calling and take up the shovel and the
hoe. His new.fangled fallacies appear to
create quite an excitement in the orderly

buoyant.
Up to the sailing Of the Arabia, no def
mite intelligence from st. Petersburgh, as
to the decision Of the Car, in regard to the
last note of the four powers, had been re-
ccived. Europe was waiting with trembling
anxiety the final answer of the Gear, which
it was npprehended would be Of character
equivalent to a declaration of war against

late residence, some four miles above Bur-

house in ashes, on Tuesday of last week.
Five ball or buck-shot wounds were fou d
in his breast, one of which had passed thro'
his heart. He leaves no relatives, was
alone at the time Of his death, and the en-
tire circumstances Of his brutal murder are
shrouded in mystery. Two citizens of Bur-
lington were arrested on suspicion of hav-
ing committed the deed, but were honora-
bly, discharged. The county Judge of Des
Moines has offered reward of $500 for the
arrest of the person or persons who COM
mitted the deed.

key have been found among the ashes of his
house, which 60 to show that he was not
