The drunkard looked at him with sever

aSet down that glass"
1t was set down and the two walked

The drunkard knows the awful conse-

own madness for liquor, he is not willing
to assume the responsibility Of another be

As we neared it we saw the same for
bidding wall of belt-ice as at Sutherland
and Hakluyt. We pulled along It's margin
seeking in vain either an opening Of access
or a nook of shelter. The gale rose, and
the ice began to drive again; but there was
nothing to be done but to get grapnel
out to the belt and hold on for the rising
tide. The Hope stove her bottom and
part of her Notwithstanding, and all the
boats We're badly chafed., 1t was an awful
storm; and it was not without constant
exertion that we kept afoat, bailing out
the sand that broke over Us, and swardng
off the Ice with boat-hooks.
At three o'clock the tide was high
enough for us to scale the ice-cliff. One
by one we pulled up the boats upon mar
row shelf, the whole sixteen of us uniting
at each pull We were to much worn
down to unload; but deep and narrow
gorge opened into the cliffs almost at the
spot where we clambered up; and, as we
pushed the boats into it on an even keel,
the rocks seemed to close over our heads,
until an abrupt turn in the course of the
ravine placed protecting cliff between us
and the gale. We were completely en-
caved.
just as we had brought in the last boat,
the Red Erie, and were snoring her up
with blocks of ice, long-used but familiar
and unmistakable sound startled and glad
7dened every ear; and flock ofeiders .feek-
ing The SKY for moment passed in front
of US. We knew that we must be at their
breeding grounds: and, as we turned in
wet and hungry to our long-coveted sleep,
it was only TO dream Of eggs and album
dance. - 7 ..sii
We ramained almost three days in our
crystal retreat, gathering eggs at the rate
of twelve hundred a day. Outside, the
storm ragged without interrnission, and our
egg-hunters found it difficult to keep their
feet; but merrier set of gourmands than
.were gathered within never ssurfeited in

Poisoned Valley.

A poisoned valley has been discovered
near Batten, in Japan. A DR., London
visited it last july and states that when
within q few yards of ethe valley strong
suffocating smell was experienced, but this
ceased as the margin was approached.
The bottom of it appeared to be fiat, des-
titute of Vegetation, and with a few large
stones scattered here and there. Skeletons
of human beings, tigers, bears, deers, and
all sorts of birds and wild animals, lay
about in profusion. The ground on which
they lay, at the bottom Of the valley, ap-
peared to be hard, sandy substance, and
no vapor was precieved. The sides were
covered with vegetation. -1aAi -''''7a
1t was proposed to enter it, and each of
the party having Lit segar, managed to
get within twenty feet of the bottom, where
a siekening nauseous smell was experienced
without any difficulty of breathing. A
dog was now fastened to the end of bam-
boo and thrust to the bottom of the valley,
while some of the party, with their watch
es in their hands, observed the effect.
AT the expiration of fourteen seconds, he
fell off his legs, without moving or looking
around, and continued alive only eighteen
minutes. The other dog now left the com
pany and went to his companion. On
reaching him be was observed to stand
quite motionless, and at the end of ten sec
onds fell down; he never moved his limbs
after, and lived only seven minutes. A
fowl was now thrown in, and died in a
minute and quarter. A heavy shower
of rain fell during the time these expert
ments were going forward, which, from the
interesting nature of the experiments, was
quite disregarded. On the opposite side
of the valley TO that which was visited, Law
human skeleton. The head was resting
on the right arm. The effect of the wealth,
er had bleached the bones as white as ivo
ry. This was probably the remains of
some wretched rebel hunted toward the
valley, who had taken refuge there uncon-
Iicious of its character. lss-.f

SIXTEEN FREE STATES. FIFTEEN SLAVE STATES.

The South must be taken as unit for
the extension of slavery. The addition of
Pennsylvania to the Southern vote would
swell that vote to 147, lacking only two Of
q majority Therefore every other Free
State must, be carried by the friends of
freedom, if Pennsylvania shall Join her
strength to the slavery oligarchy. The vote
Of New Hampshire, of Vermont, of Rhode
Island, Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, Cali
fornia-any one of these given to Mr.. Bu-
chanan, would in that case turn the scale
in favor ofsectional despotism against Con-
stitutional freedom. Not vote, there
fore, can be lost il. any State without the
risk of losing the election. l.F1 .si7i.i.'s
The legislature of each State directs the
manner in which the Presidential electors
shall be chosen. We believe that in all
the Free States this is now done by a gen
eral ticket and by plurality vote: i. e.,
a plurality of the voters in State carry
the whole number of electors for the State
New York is entitle to 35 electors. These
are not to be chosen by districts, so that a
part might be elected for Fremont, Others
for Buchanan, and others for Fillmore; but
each voter has upon his ticket the names
of 35 electors for his State, and whichever
general ticket has the highest number of
voters throughout the State is elected.
Suppose then, for illustration, that New
York should cast, in November next, 500,-
900 votes for Presidential electors, and
that of these 100000 should be given for
the Fillmore ticket. This would leave
100000 to be divided between Col. Fire.
mont and Mr.. Buchanan. If the Buchan-
an ticket should have 200,00l votes. .leav-
ing for Fremont l99, 900. the whole S5
electoral votes of this States would 60 for

more or Buchanan. So in any State
Hence the exceeding importance of one
vote when parties are nearly balanced
Yet thousands neglect going to the polls
because they have only one vote.
At the Presidential election in 1852. Of
of s39,3s9 white males over 81 years Of
age in New York, only 522,294 went to

1t appears that a runaway negro from

Golconda, Pope Co., and for several sue.
cessive nights had broken into the houses
Of farmers residing in that vicinity, which
he plundered of provisions and whatever
else of value he could manage to carry off.
On Wednesday night of week before last,
whilst on one of his predatory excurtions,
be visited the house of M. Daniel Threld-
keld, seven miles west of Golconda, into
which he made forcible entry through
the window of Mrs. Threldkeid's room
lshe- being alone with her children-Mr. T.
absent on business,) and notwithstanding
a most vigorous resistance on the part Of
Mrs. T., he finally succeeded in choking
her down and ravishing her person, after
accomplishing which, he made his way to
Mr.. yackson's a near neighbor of Mrs. T.'s,
broke into the house, and attempted to
commit rape on the person of Mrs. Jack
son, who,5 by her screams, soon awakened
her husband, p who administered to the
wretch severe drubbing. In the scuffle
which ensued the black fiend made his es-
cape, but was captured the next morning.
The crowd assembled and took vote as
to whether he should. be left to the law. or
given ap 70 Threldkeld and his friends, ia
large numberSof those present decided in
favor of the latter alternative and the ne
gro was forcibly rescued from the Sheriff,
taken by the mob about four miles back in
to the country, and there tied to tree,
Mrs. Theldkeld was then sent for, who full

lated her person on the night previous
An old sword in the pessessichI; Of one of
crowd was now secured and put in the
hands of Mrs. T., who thereupon proceed
ed to slasl., stab and cut him in the most
terrible manner. After her vengeance was
fully satisfied, the brothers and husband of
Mrs. T. shot the negro six or seven times
m different parts of the body-one Of her
brothers finally putting an end to his tor
ment by shooting him through the head.
The brutal exhibition was finally wound up
by actually scalping him, and his remains
were thrown into gully a few rods from
the place of execution. .asr7 .s a-r.i

Al young man in Virginia had become
sadly intemperate. He was man ofgreat
capacity, facination and power, but he had
a passion for brandy which nothing could
control. Often in his walks friend re-
monstrated with him, but in vain; as often
in return would he urge his friend to take
the social glass in vain. On one occasion
the latter agreed to yield to him; and as
they walked up the barkeeper said:
