no trains could get away. Getting fair start

Gays delay. the train brought mp in a deep drift
some SIX miles this side Of Boscopa, and then
commenced the work in earnest
ne tram would plunge into tie drifts the
snow being sometimes as high as the tops of
the cars, and coming 10 dead hab, wait till

be obtained from the few farm houses accessible.
Parties were detailed to cut and bring wood for

one OF TIE working parties returned to the train
at about two O'Clock one morning, with the 10y

Col. john ". Forney.

In our exchange papers from different parts
of the State, we find frequent mention made OF
this gentleman IN connection with ihf repre-
sentation Of Pennsylvania ia The United States
Senate. We have known Col. Fornfy long
and well, aud We are confident that Pennsyl-
vania would fad in him an able and faithful
representative one VINO has made her interests
the study Of his life, and whose taIrnt could
render her the most efect0al service in the
Senate chamber or any other scene OF action to
which he may be called by the voice Of his
fellow citizens. Although Col. Forney is a
Democrat-in fact, the very incarnation Of
Democratic prnclples-hp has won golden
opinions even from men Of opposite views IN
politics, many Of whom are ready to endorse all
that We shall have to say in his behalf. A a
political writer, Col. Forney has no superior IN
the United States He wirIds pen which
can excofiaie like whip Of scorpions aud
crush all puny opposition like the club Of Her
cueS and yet he lashes or cudg-ls bis oPpo-
nents With the grace and courteous action Of a
Chesterfield. As public speaker, Col Forn"y
is argumrntativr, animated, and impressive IN
short, the very beau idaai Of Senatorial orator.
We do not know what may BE- the wishes Of the
Colon"I himself in rtlaiion to this matter, bal
W. are quic sure that Prnnsy leania woulc
