A NOVEL ExcuRs1oN.-The New Orleans pa
pers of the second of December record the
arrival at that port of two sloops-the w.
Il. Wilkins and the NJ. Can6eld-from the port
of Essex, on Lake Champlain, in the State Of
New York.
The objects of the voyage and the route ta-
ken by them are both very curious. They start.
ed from Essex, town on the west shore of
Lake Champlain, one hundred and thirty miles
northeast Of Albany. 1t has steamboat land
ing and thriving population of about 200
The voyagers then proceeded on the lake and
passed through the Chambly Canal and entered
the St. Lawrence near Lake St. Peter. Thence
they sailed to Montreal and passed onward
through the Lachine and Cornwall canals, and
entering Lake Ontario ascended the Welland
canal irto Lake Erie. Crossing the lake to Erie,
Pennsylvania, they entered the Beaver canal,
and passing down to the town of that name,
reached the Ohio river, following it to its juno.

Death of Mr. Thomas NJ. Williams.
At a special communication of Des Moines
Lodge No. L, Of Free and Accepted Masons, held
at Masonic Hail. Tuesday, Dec. 10th, 1855, a
Committee, consisting of brothers jerks, Scarf,
Phelps and Rauch, were appointed to adopt
suitable resolutions in regard to the death of
our late brother, THOMAS NJ. WILLIAMS. The
Committee reported the following resolutions,
which were unanimously adopted:
Whereas, 1t has pleased the Great Architect
of the universe to call from labor our friend and
brother, Thomas NJ. Williams,
Therefore, Resolved, That as Masons we deep
ly deplore the blow which has deprived lis OF
one of our brightest ornaments, and the COM
munty of one Of its most upright citizens.
Resolved, That in the life and character of
our deceased brother we see an example worthy
Of our constant imitation, not only as an honest
man and valuable citizen, but as Jealous and
true Mason, and noble pattern of the Chris
tan gentleman. s"F f' /
Resolved, That we deeply sympathize with
the bereaved family Of our brother in this their
heavy afaiction, and commend them to the shell
tering Kindness Of the Father of the fatherless
and the widows God. s 'f'f
Resolved, That copy of these resolutions be
furnished to each Of the daily papers for publi-
cation, and copy be presented to the family of
our brother. P. F. JENKS, Sec'y.

walker, the Fillibustercr.

We shall regret to hear that Walker has been
wiped out, and that the conquest of Nicaragua
has been abandoned. That country for the
year past has been the. safety-valve through
which much that is bad in the United States has
escaped. 1t lis the rendezvous for the ruined
gamblers, the hard up fancy men, the shoulder
hitters, ballot-box suffers, and the thousand
nameless varieties Of the human species that are
found in the mobs, the drinking houses and the
stews of our cities. There they have aocked
by the ship loads, affording inexpressibe relief
to the places that they frequented in the States.
But they are not yet all gone; and if Walkers
good fortune should now desert him, We fear
those who yet remain with US, will continue un-
til another piratcal expedition is set on foot, to
harrass and vex their more respectable neigh.
bors, break the law and defy justice, as is their
wont. We shall be sorry to hear that Walker
has failed. r

and privations Of Walkers men iu Nicaragua
The cholera is making fearful havoc among

RafIrod Meeting.

At a meeting of the citizens of La Platte,
held at the house of Stephen Golf, on the eve
ming of the 2Sth November 1856:
On motion, John Armstrong was called to the
Chair, and Stephen Goff appointed Secretary,
The object of the meeting being stated by the
Chairman, William Larimer, Jr, offered the fol.
lowing Preamble and Resolutions, which were
unanimously adopted:
g Whereas, Congress has appropriated a large
quantity of land in the State of Iowa for the
construction of the Burlington and Missouri
Railroad, and inasmuch as the mouth of the
Platte River is point incorporated in said
grant of land, we, the citizens of La Platte, Ne-
braska Territory, at the mouth of said Platte
River, North side, have deep interest in the
construction of said Railroad, and knowing the
fact that other towns, beth above and below La
Platte, are holding meetings to direct said road
from its natural route, and urging the President
and Directors to build the road to their respec-
tive towns.
,Supposing the Company would fully examine
the route designated, not only by natural advan-
tages, but by the grant of land by Congress, we
the citizens of La Platte have heretofore taken
but little interest in the location Of the road,
| but the time Las come for action, we, therefore,
earnestly invite a view and survey of our route,
sufficiently to ascertain its practicabity over all
other rontes, it being the airline due west from
Burlington, the nearest and cheapest, with easy
grades and q full supply of timber and stone fol
the construction Of the road, together with good
landings on each side of the Missouri River
Therefore, s.l Is .4.4f 5,..s Il
| Resolved, That William Larimer, Jr, JohI
Armstrong and Stephen Goff, be Committee
to correspond with the President and Directors
and if necessary to visit them at Burlington
to urge in person the Importance of the termi
mus OF the road at q point in the State of low,
opposite to La Platte. f:1a ss4 q.
! Resolved, That the proceedings Of this meet
ling be published in the Belvue Gazette, Nebras
kan and Democrat, Omaha City, Gienwoo,
Times, the Burlington and all other papeu
friendly to the route. sls
