travel, and gives the following picture;
This is the second winter of the operations
Of the Ohio and Mississippi Road, and so com

it, they haze forgotten their former condition.
Two years ago the traveller had to endure two
days and two nights in a stage between Olney
an st. Louis, and as many days and as many
nights over the frozen, bumpy ground, back
again, walking up the long hills, carrying rails
through the swamps, chilling and freezing all
night long, and perling the respect OF all good
people below and the hope of heaven above,

The GERMAN CHURCH. FAm-The ar
ticles prepared for this Fair are unusually
numerous, varied, and rich, we are told, and
are suited for the tastes and purses of all Wis
itors. As the proceeds are for a most com
mendabe purpose, and the ladies who have
come to the aid of the church, have labored
with zeal and displayed much taste to make
it attractive, it will be reproach upon the
gallantry and generosity Of the city, to allow
them to be disappointed in their hopes oc ma

and Tuesday evenings.

CoNGREss.-Mr. Toomb's bill which passed
the Senate at the last session, authorizing the
people of Kansas to form a State constitution,
has been referred in the House to the COM
mttee on Territories. The committee on
mileage in the House are preparing bill to
correct some Of the outrageous abuses in the
mileage system. The amounts received by
the members varies from ST. to $500 which
is the sum paid the delegates from Washing
ton and Oregon Territories. The plan is to
allow the present rates up to $500; the mileage
beyond that sum, is to be ten cents per mile.
1t is also proposed to make a reduction of $25
per day for voluntary absence by members
from the House. These are all just and nee
essary measures, but it is serious question
if there be virtue enough in the House to pass
them.
In the Senate Mr.. Wilson occupied the
whole day on Friday with speech on the
eternal subject Of slavery and party politics;
his efforts were directed to prove that Repub-

false, why so anxious to refute 1t by constant

~ Strong and serious efforts are being
made in st. Louis to have the Davenport and
Rock Island Bridge removed as nuisance
and obstruction to navigation. 1t was stated
at the meeting that insurance companies

A NOVEL SYSTEMATICALLY Washington
of the Philadelphia Inquirer
states that some adventurous individuals have
purchased of the proprietor OF Mount Vernon
all the trees and shrubbery left on the estate,
at a cost of $4,000, and that the same parties
have erected large building near the railroad
depot in Washington, at a cost OF probably
$4,000 more This large outlay is to be re-
imbursed by the manufacture and sale of
Washington or Mount Vernon canes.

CINCINNATI HOG MARKET ON FRIDAY.-The
weather being too warm for packing, the hog
market was dull, and purchases could have
been made on easy terms The receipts were
six to seven thousand in twenty-four hours.
There was an eastern demand for lard, and
about 1900 brls were sold at prices ranging
from 1913 to IL. All articles Of the hog pro-
duct were firm and generally held above the
views of buyers. Dispatches from New York
report an enormous demand for bacon, with
immense sales, to arrive, at 9:3l to 10 for long
middes in boxes.
Flour was steady in New York on Friday
with fair demand. Coffee dull, under the

CASE OF EMBEzzLEMENT,-A man b. the
name of Stevens, member Of a firm engaged
in the tanning business, in Sullivan county, n.
y was arrested in Cincinnati on Thursday,
upon charge of embezzling 100000 worth
of property belonging to a house in New York
city; it appears that the city firm had furnish
ed raw-hides to Stevens and partners to be
tanned and returned to them on contract; the
tanners were slow and dilatory in sending back
the leather, till they had accumulated large
stock in their hands. A short time since the
tannery burnt down, and it was represented
the leather had been consumed, but on inves-
tigation it was discovered that the tanners had
been shipping it in all directions. Some of it
was traced to Cincinnati, where Stevens and a
brother were found in possession of it. Ste
vens after examination was sent back to New
York in custody Of an officer.
