| KEoKUK PACKET CoMPANY.-We find in
the st. Louis Republican of the 21st., the
following programme for the season of this
old and favorite Upper Mississippi Steam
boat Company. -
The Keokuk Packet Company have com:
pleted their season arrangements, and the
lines will go into operation forthwith, the
| first boat leaving this port tomorrow forKe-
okuk. The arrangements for freight and pas.
senger accommodations are more complete
and extended than they have ever been here
tofore, and embrace two daily lines from this
port-one of which, composed of the steam-
ers Die Vernon, Captain Ford, and Jeannie
Deans, Captain Burke, will leave st. Louis
daily, Sundays excepted, at 8 o'clock, P. NJ.
for Quincy. These steamers are first class
passenger packets, and will carry the mail.
Tlpy:wil connect with the. Nbrfhern Cross
Railroad fo; C4H@go.aid.tke East, and also
connect with the steamer Ben. .Campbe4L.
which forms a.daly lime between: Quincy and
Keokux, leaving. Qpipcy. every day except
Sunndats,' at S o'clock, P. M. The time from
St. Louis to Keokuk will be twenty hours.
and from Keokuk to st. Louis seventeen
hours. This line will transport freight to
and from Quincy only-but will ticket pas-
sengers through to all points, Rock Island,
Galena and St. Paul. @ q
The daily freight and passenger line to and
from Keokuk will be composed of the steam.
ers Westerner, Capt. johnson, Keokuk..
Captain Matson, and Sam Gaty. These
steamers will leave this port daily, SUNDAYS
excepted, at 5 o'clock, P. NJ, and .Keokuk
daily, Tuesdays excepted, at 6 o'clock, A.
NJ, connecting at Keokuk with daily mail
packets for Burlington, Rock Island, Galena
and st. Paul. 1t will be seen that both lines
connect with daily mail and passenger pack
cts for all points on the Upper Mississippi 70
st. Paul, thus forming two complete daliy
lines from this port.

MILWAUKEE, March II.

On HAND 1T will be seen that Captain
Louis Roberts, with his favorite Packet, the
Time and Tide, is ready for the opening of
navigation, which must now happen in few
days. The Time and Tide is fitted up anew,

e The Reu. Rufus Griswold has sue
cessfully arrested the application of his for
mer wife to have the divorce set aside, but
merely on technical grounds. The trial
however, has developed an astounding de-
gree of moral trepitude on his part-includ-
ing cruelty and deceit toward his wife, and
general and almost astounding shabbiness
of character.

of character.
e Heinrich Heine, the celebrated wit
and poet, so long known in the salons of
Paris, died lately, after cruel illness which,
for nine years, had confined him to recum-
bent posture, and completely wasted his
body, though it scarcely was able to dim
his mind.
EE At the ball given by the Americans
in Paris, in commemoration of Washington's
birthday, Lord Clarendon walked about with
Mrs. Mason, the wife of the American Min.
ister, on his arm, which made 'the uibiit',
perfectly certain that it is out of the question
there should be any war between England
and America.
e The Louisville Courier says that
the last winter has been the hardest ever
known on stage horses in kentucky. Be
tween louisville and Nashville alone some
sixty horses have been disabled by the ice
and frozen ground, and most of them ruined
beyond recovery.
- The New Haven Journal chronicles
the death of Roger Sherman, in his 88th
year, probably the oldest male resident in
that city. He was a son of Hon. Roger
Sherman, one of the signers of the Declare
ton of Independence, one of the leading mer
in framing the Constitution of the United
States, and one of the soundest statesme,
that our country ever possessed. e4

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTs.-A Pekin,
China, there is phalanstery called the
House of Feathers, where the poor are lodg-
ed for one-fifth of a farthing per night. 1t is
simply a vast hall thickly strewn with feath-
ers. Men, women and children lie down to-
gether in the beauties of commonism; an im-
mense coverlet is then let down over the
party, with holes through which the sleepers
put their heads, so as not to be suffocated-
At daylight the phalansterian canopy is hois-
ted up, after signal on the tam-tam to in.

A SCRAP OF -Macaulay, in his
new volumes, tells the following story Of
Pope Sixtus ": "Finding that he could not
directly cope with gang of outlaws who
had stronghold among the Apprentices, had
train of mules loaded with poisoned wine
and food, sent on road that ran close to the
fastness. The robbers sailed forth, seized
the prey, feasted, and died. The pious ole
Pope exultcd greatly when he heard that the
corpses of thirty ruffians had been found ly
ing among the mules and packages"

National Monument to the Father Of his Country which
has been for years in progress at Washington hay
ing fallen into the exclusive management OF political
party, 1.-THE know-nohings appears to have to q
dead stand still Mr.. Ycspasan Ellis first vice president
Of the Monument Society in bis official report says
The country cannot be reused to liberaty nor even
gratde and the agents who have been appointed have
many them returned disappointed and deparng,
and deeply wounded by insult beaped upon them. The
scheme with which entered upon the work has been
broken by the mistaken action Of predecessors and II
will be difficult indeed, IL not in vain TO renew IT. The tide
had ebbed before election but not responsible
for the difficulties interposed by Others which preclu-
ded us from taking II at its food wecan only deplore
IL and by renewed and effort endeavor to remedy
the evil which has already been done awaken the public
feeling rather than go Congress for Legislative aid
The receipts Of the year have been far less than in any
pre- cedng year since the cornerstone was laid The
amount from all has been but S7740 We have
now S25 in The treasury and In all responsible for
exceeding $50 OF debts contracted by all OF which Is
expected TO be liquidaed and paid by the end Of this
month Additional Of the receipts and expcnd
lures arc prepared and ready for inspection.
All Of these complaints the natural results Of chang
ing the original national sntpatssn design Of the monu-
ment into mere speculation of political party. When
the now-nothngs Of Washington elected themselves to
the management Of the work. 1t given out we believe
that the would be speedily complsted by col
lectons from the American party councils throughout the
Union This scheme having utterly failed the only alter
native now renvest the in society indie

from all parties nsonalites sects and oreeds Of the
American people and all other people who may choose TO
contribute or Washington the benefsctor of man
kind else let the knownohing board of management,
without further tnkeripg, turn the work TO Congress-
We dare say that very little will be raised for the
men from the councils of the order this year. because all
their spare cash will be required TO support their newspa
per organs through the dry weather Of the approaching
summer.
Let the Washington Monument then be given mp the
