\ Doc SroKY.-A friend of ours who in
dulces in dogs, has two oe the canine spe
cies-one 4 cross between the Russian and
terrier, and the other newfoundland. y
busting busy body of a hen had stolen a
nest in the bar, and brought out brood
Of a dOzcd chickens. When found, they
were placed with their careful mamma i'll a
large trough safe out of harms way, as was
supposed But the terrier dog came round,
and hearing the chickens, peeped into the
box, when the hen pecked At him. Quick
er than scat" keeZer-for such was the name
in which the terrier aforesaid reJoiced-seiz-
ell her by the head and cut short her useful
life. Our friend, however, picked her up,
and administered the necessary remedies in
such cases, but all in vain. She was past
surgery" But on going back to the chick
ems. he found Jack. the Newfoundland, en-
sconced in the box, with the chickens nes-
tied in he long hsr of his ears and neck,
and for several days he persisted IN his care
Of the brood, until a cage was made for them
and he was relieved of his duty, by the lit
tie girl Of our friend.
But the story IS not all told. While Jack
was acting so mOtherly part for the chick
ems. Keezer in emulation OF 30 signal n viz
tue, undertook to perform the same service
for a couple Of Pigs-the oHly survivors OF a
litter which their unfeeling mother had de
voured-and he grOwled at Jack If he came
round, in a most praiseworthy manner
But the pigs died. ''Let the dead bury their
dead, said keezer, and Re left them in dis
gust But Jack. true to his more than pOr-
cine infectS, carried them away and gave
them a doggy as well as hogiy burial, and
they have remained undisturbed.--Ndsaua

STILL LATER
Civil War i'm KanZaS

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 30.-Kanzas advices Of the
Oath just re yed by the Democrat, say that
civil war is raging in Bourbon county. Sew
eral conflicts have taken place between Free
state and pro- Slavery parties, and a number
of prisoners taken on both sides. The Unit
ed States Marshal with force of eighty men
demanded the surrender of Free State
party, and the demand was answered by
volly OF musket balls. The fire was returned
and the fight lasted an hour, when the pro-
Slavery men returned with the loss of one
man KILLED and two mortally wounded. The
United States Marshal was dangerously
wounded. Gen. Lane was entrenehed at Su-
gar Mound, and determined to fight the dra-
goons if they attacked him. A battle was
regarded inevitable.
An exciting debate occurred in the Law.
renee Convention. The Committee on Res
olutions presented three reports. The ma
jority report disapproves of voting for State
officers. The fist minority report recon-
Inends the maintenance of full State ticket.
and the second, signed by Mr.. Redpath, re.
commends participation in the election for
the purpose of destroying the Lecompton
constitution-that no man be nominated who
will not pledge himself to crush that instru-
ment-that the Topeka constitution be sub.
mitted to the people, and loyalty to that in
strument be made the test of lealty to the free
State party-also that the Legislature should
repeal the present code of laws. Messrs.
Robinson, Phillips, Conway, Schuyler and
Vaughan, spoke in favor OF voting. The
most radical revolutionary speeches were
made

LAND S11DE-In Catskill. N. Y, on Sun
day, five acres of land, on the hillside adj
joining the brick yard of Dr. Ensign. on the
west side of the creek, cayed down distance
of sixty feet, and continued to slide for
quarter of mile, until reaching the foot of
the hill it ran completely under the surface,
upheaving very large kiln of bricks, con-
tanning over two hundred thousand, and de-
molishing sheds, yards, and everything in its
way, Some three acres of the land on the
side hill has sunk under ground-the surface
being from fifty to sixty feet lower than pre-
manipulating the whole face of the ground
broken into ridges and deep chasms. No
body was injured by the avalanche.

MOVEMENTS FOR 186O.-An agreeable social
and political banquet was given by Francis
z. Blair at his residence at Silver Spring, Md.
on Friday last, to Hon. N. P. Banks, Preston
King, Judge Trumbull, Senator Doolittle, of
Wisconsin, F. P. Blair, Jr., and many other
prominent members of the Republican party
in Congress. Important political measures
are often conceived and arranged at these fes-
tive meetings 1t was at Silver Spring, Md,
in the winter and spring of 1856, that the
nomination of Col. Fremont was settled. Par
ties are forming their plans already for 1860,
which is but two years distant. The prelim.
mary movements of the Republicans are of
most public interest, because they are the
party which will succeed in 1860. Col. Ben
ton says that the chasm in the Democratic
party cannot possibly be closed or bridged,
and that the Republicans can only defeat
themselves by gross mistakes. The Republic
can candidate for 1860 will be taken from the
circle Of these names: Mr. Seward, Col. Free

Losses BY FIRE IN the UNITED STATES
According to tables published in the New York
Herald, the number Of fires in the United States
in 1857, where the losses amounted to &c. 900 or
more, was 2SO, !and the value Of property de-.
stroyed gl6,692, 600 The number Of fires in 1866
was 227, and the loss g2l, l59.0O0. Add to these
amounts the value Of property destroyed by fires
where in each instance the loss was less than
10000 and the aggregate would be increased TO
probably g27 600 900 in 1866, and to $40 900 900
IN 1857 OF course, these figures are merely ap-
proximativs. The number Of lives lost Ia the
United States b. fire in 1857 was 1853 +: and in
1886 the number was 1888.
