DR. KANE's New Book.-A correspondent
writes to know if DR.. Kane intends publishing
volume on his late Arctic Expedition, and
how soon the same may be expected. We
take this occasion to inform our readers gener-
ally, that the Doctor has been busily engaged,
since his return home, in preparing full and
complete account Of this, the most perilous and
interesting voyageof the age. Messrs. Childs
& Peterson, the enterpris;ng publishers of this
city, who have the work in hand, are sparine
no expense to make the book worthy Of the
subject, and judging from the fact that the es.
timated cost Of its production is upward Of
$40, 900, we have every reason to believe that
it will be one Of the most magnificent and elab
crate works ever issued from the American
press. The paintings and drawings from
sketches by DR.. Kane, are being prepared by
the distinguished artiss, James Hamilton, ESQ.,,
who has devoted several years to the study Of
Arctic subjects, in connection with DR.. Kane.
There will be twenty fine steel line engravincs.
including portraits Of DR.. Kane and Mr.. Grin.
nell, executed under the supetintcndence of ].
NJ. Butler, Esq, who stands unrivalled in this
department. The wood-cuts will be engraved
in the highest style Of the AFT by Messrs. Van
Ingen & Snyder, making in all upwards Of
300 Illustrations. We would further state that
Il will be issued in two handsome octayo vol.
umes, as early as practicable the ensuing year,
at the low price Of IS for the entire work

+, No organization Of the House yet, and I am
sorry to say there is less prospect Of electing
Speaker now than there was ten days ago.
Banks has run up tol07, when la were nee
essary for choice; but beyond this he has
thus far been unable to go, and now begins to
fall of. His immediate friends not only man
ifest much feeling towards those whose votes
they need. but who cannot be induced to vote
for him, but show signs Of becoming obstinate
and dogged-the very qualities they complain
OF in others. There are ten or twelve votes
which Banks has been unable to get, that would
be cast for Pennington. But then the question
is asked, can Pennington obtain all the votes
that have been cast for Banksa see no rea.
son why he cannot ;-he is as sound upon all
Northern questions as Banks. He is an Anti.
Slavery man. and as thoroughly Anti Nebraska
as any Northern man; if, then, those who
have been voting for Banks refuse to vote for
Pennington, it must be because they are piqued
at the formers want of success will not do
them the injustice to suppose they can be gov.
.erned by any ,uch unworthy motive.
The proceedings Of the House and the inter.
course Of members have demonstrated that
there is not majority in that body in favor of
the Kansas Nebraska act, and Of re.
storing the Missouri Compromise though there
is majority in opposition to the administration
and the aforesaid act of unmitgated rascality.
That portion of the House who are Anti.Ne.
braska, but opposed to restoration Of the Mis-
souri, Compromise, are Of opinion that Kansas
must and will be Free State at any rate
Besides this. they know very well that were the
House to pass bill restoring the Missouri
Compact, II could not pass the Senate, and if
it could, would be vetoed by the present thing

many Of the Northern members will not now

young lady was passing down Main street yester.
day morning, she was somewhat startled upon
hearing some one behind her in earnest entrsaty
that she would stop looking around she beheld
a man, apparently well dressed, but with wild
look, rapidly approaching her. With admirable
GOODNESS, the lady waited his approach, and upon
his resting his hand upon her shoulder, said {:

answered the lady, 'salmost any one who behaves

impressively upon his breast, 'allow me to make

lady, not at all taken back by SO astounding
declaration, quietly REPLIED ssthat the street was

maniac, soothed and delighted, with visions, per-

your good advice-good morning, and departed
with graceful bow-leaving the young lady to
