Regular outdoor exercise. more especially upon horse back, last Fal gave him . moe rugged ap. pcarance than he has borne for several years.- His society recently granted him leave Of ab- sence, on . fall salary, for one year, and he concluded to make voyage to Calif0snis, visit the. mines md the mountains there, and we can hardly doubt that he will confirm his health in this ws3.

Ma- EDITOR A party of the ladies of Ban taIn-Falls enjoyed the sleghins, in the iadcrend- ence of leap-year fashion on Tuesday, the 4th inst. The affair was conducted with much glee, and the good cheer provided by mine hostp Ckurch, of WoieotfsilIe, as well as the kind at- tcntions of himself and lady. were duly appre- ciated,
 From the great number of parties of this de scription during the present season, it would seem, that the ladies are of opinion. since the wise man has written of lime to laugh, that this fcapyear is one of the times.

SOME PIcKEREL.-The present appears to be an excellent season for pekcrel fshing at the different lakes in this section. The weight of twelve which were taken from Warren pond week before last amounted to fortyeight lbs- and we hear that an amateur from W olcottyille caught one in Bantam lake on Saturday which turned the scales at four pounds eleven ounces; Git may be stated, however, that the odd ounces were delivered from it in the shape of two or three perch.) Goshen pond. too, was visited by party. with good success, short time since some of them having. winch they left, more taam they e0ald carry!

FsAsKLrs PisRcE.--The following severe hui iust remarks are from the " r. Herald. Ina, oaper supported Mir. Pierce's eleriion:
 Pierce, finding that the chances for a nomina sion are rapidly fading away, has appealed 10 Congress to give him three millions to sxpend II, burnishing up old guns, or, in othcf Wosds. il getting np sham war excitement for the Cincin- natti Convention.
 Having exhausted all the means in his power ta plunge US into quarrel with Spain, he now hopes to turn to more profitable account our differences with Eng.aud but there can be no wal between, countries which are joint proprie,ors in commer- eial, agricultural and financial enterprises to ti,e extent of hundreds of millions, merely to aid the prospects of MT. Pierce at Cincinnati. Abroga.e she Clayton and l,ulwer treaty. IL sionId neve, have been made. If your offended dignity. sup- pressed through year of personal civiIi,ies. ac- eeptsd and returned. requires to he avenged, send Mr. Cramplon his passports. and leave our mer- chants, agricuiuriss and monsyed men free from your diplomatic quackery. till new and more competent administration finds means to efface your bIunders, and restore harmony between two ustions which should be the las, to quarre. with each other. Neither the one nor the other of the measures now pending can by any possibility en' danger the peace of the two countries.

Relations with Kneland.

We have paid very little regard to the blns- tering in some quarters about the probability of a war with England, and the certainty of John Bulls getting terrible dressing if war should |come---for We have not for moment believed that there could be infatuation deep and exten- sive enough to produce an outbreak so unneces- sary and so certainly disastrous to both parties in the conflict. No matter which uf the two great Christian powers has the ability to do the other the most harm once in the fight, and the contest would be terribly sanguinafy, and when ever and however it might terminate, the yictors and the vanquished would inevitably suffer loss, What could we gain by war with England i? Our ability to maintain onr rights is nowhere disputed, our territory is already too extended ]; or, if the accession of Canada would be an ad- vantage, it will be brought about, in the course of events, in more honorable way. @ l But the cloud is passing over the few war spirits, who would plunge the nation in wal, if they might but fatten on the spoils, will not succeed. There will be no war England desires peace, and if the little difficulties that have arisen are not adjusted it will be our own fault.
 The oficia correspondence between the Sec retary of State and Lord Clarendon in relation
 to enlistments is published, and the dismissal of
 Mir. Champion is fully justified. Let hook be put into the jaws of such filibusters as Kinney end Walker and there will be no difficulty in arranging Central American affairs

Emigrants for Kansas,

The company BOW being formed in this State
 for the purpose of emigrating to Kansas, met in New Haven on Friday to the number of 6vef
 40 members, for the purpose of choosing officers
 of the association, and otherwise peffetting,
 their organization. The Palladium says. We
 have seldom seen body of men of the same
 number, whose appearance indicated more in-
 tclligence and energy than those assembled on
 this oceasion. The majority were men under
 B years ofage, the flower of the communities to which they belong, of good character, quiet and peaccable, not disposed to pick quarrel" but possessed of a determination which might make thazardous for any border rufian to tread upon their toes, or in any way infringe upon their rights. They go for the purpose of making Kansas their future home, and will carry with them all that love of freedom and desire to es- tahllsh it's institutions which have always char acterized the Yankees wherever the mission of life" has called them. That their influence will be felt in the territory, and for good. no one who knows them can doubt. There win. probably, be connected with this association some 300 members.
 The vanguard VII leave that city Monday, March f5th. and the others will follow in two weeks more. As far as could be ascertained. the occupation of the different uembcrs is a follows: IS farmers, 3 wagon makers, 2 teach CTS, 3 surveyors, l physician, { joincrs, cAbi net maker, 3sawyerss machinist, millrwright, IT wives and 39 children

NEw HAVEN AND EAsr W,SnsoR Trus. tees of the Eas, Windsor rh.oi. Seminary have. through committee. made a statement respecting the origin and result of the late negotiations to effect union with tho New Haven Theol. Seni. nary. When the matter first came up, committee was appointed by the East Windsor Seminary to inquire into the expediency and prac,icabi,y of the Union. In conversation and correspondence Il came to that Committee from various sources deserving consideration, that possibly union of she two Seminaries of the State upon a sound and satisfactory basis might now be effected. The two Institutions, was said, were in circumstances ef like depression. Both would be compelled at no great distance of time to elect new Teachers sof Theology. Both had been founded on tho sa,ne theological platform, nasmuch as the creed of the Pastoral Union adopted al East Windsor is sub- stantlally the same with the Saybrcok Platform. recognized Ut New Haven. It WAS even added as another consideration. that the state of opinion among pastors and churches had greatly changed w,.nin n few years, and in direction to favor union upon the Eas. Windso, basis.
