The hour is coming, and it is fear,

we must bid adieu to the scenes which

think, or whether we think not, this
body which is now warm and active
with life. shall be- cold and motionless
with death. The countenance will
be pale, the eye must be closed, the

John Rules, of Springfield, Illinois,
came to his death in terrible manner
on September 18th, near Columbia,
Oregon Territory. The Tuolumne
Courier says that he had been indulg-
ing freely, and being rather noisy, a
friend volunteered to see him home.
After some trouble he was mounted
upon his friends horse, and, for great
er security, his legs were tied under
the horses belly. The party then set
out for Springfield, Rules companion
leading the horse. When near the
lower end of Broadway the animal
became rcstivc, reared and fell back
on his rider, but Immediately sprang
up and galloped away like the wind
As the horse got to his feet the saddle
turned with Rules, who being fastened
to the beast, at every bound his head
dashed against the ground. Rules was
taken from the horse dead, and horribly
mangled. His arm was broken in sew.

with the dust of the road.

mother, as she instils the lessons of

The New Capital of Iowa.

A correspondent of the Chicago
Press, writing from Demoinc under
date of Nov. 18th, says:
Speculation here has shut up its
vawning jaws. "Land Offices "have
dingy look and the mud about their
doors is unstirred and placid. The
Banks are eggs with the meats cx-
tracted. Nearly everybody is waiting
for " something to turn up )" every
body hopes something will turn up;
and if hope, and wishing, and looking
will or can effect something" then it
will most certainly turn up, and if it
looks yellow in the face will be greet
ed most heartily.
Some of us were simple enough to
suppose that out here, one hundred
and twenty miles from the end of
Railroad, where land looks as shore
less as the sea to Columbus sailors.
and corn-fields broad as the eve can
reach, we might begin life with less
than fortune, and eat "hominy' for
less than fremont delicacies. But
our eyes are open to the fact that
land here has sold at 500 per foot;
that rents are up to Chicago figures:
and that "wcstcrn fare is counted
for as much money as eastern living.
Winter seems now to have closed
up the we: fall, and the four horse
mud engines of southern pattern,
navigate the streets with some facility.
The archives of the State are in
process Of removal hither, but they ar
rive slowly. The unworked roads
across great prairics and sioughs have
become almost impossible by our
heavy rains. In the "good time com
ing" (Querp When y by the assis-
tancc Of the iron horse we will get
Chicago dailics before the seventh dav
and our dry goods before our sixty
day bills mature.
Drowning men catch at straws."
We are expecting relief when the Leg
islature meets through the capacity of
its members to pay what we will
charge them for the satisfaction of
their individual wants. May our lcg-
islators not prove as lean in pocket as
we are in bank credit
