Terrible Suffering on the Plains.

A letter from. the ST Louis Republican
dated st. Joseph, Mo-. Dec. 80, says:
We have information of the return of
hunting party from the Little Blue, in most
deplorable condition. They were, Mr. James
Stringfelow. Mr.. Van Dorser and Mr.. Nor
rel-the first from Atchison, K. t., and the
two latter from South Carolina. Gen. Math-
ews saw them after their hair-breath escape,
and gives me the following thrilling narra-
tive:
When they reached the Big Blue they fixed
their encampment, but finding only few
buffalo, they left their camp in charge of a
negro belonging to Mr.. Van Dorser and pro-
ceeded over to the Little Blue. On the
first evening out they we're overtaken by a
storm of wind and snow, and lost their way
They wandered for eight days without fire or
food. They blew the tubes out of their guns
in their effortes to kindle fire, and then
threw their guns away The feet of Van
Dorser and Morrell became so frosted. and
they were so exhausted from fatigue and star
vatlon, that Mr.. Steingfelow, who had had
some mountain experience, was scarcely able
to get them to move along He encouraged
them by every means, until they finally reach
cu u udultdllOu anu were SuNtu. hr. hOi-
rell and Mr. Van Dorser, will lose their feet,
and Mr. Streingfellow some of his toes
Their sufferings were beyond description, and
they will be ill for some weeks to come The
negro who remained in camp, is uninjured,
although he suffered good deal from the Sc
verify Of the cold and anxie.y for his master
and friends. They are all now safely lodged
in Atchison
The General also informs me that rumor
reached him that two surveying parties, one
of which was Sam Parsons, who is well
known in your city, had been murdered by
the Camanche Indians The country in
which they we're operating is near the Sac
Reservation, in the southwestern part of the
Territory, and near the Arkansas line
These Indians and the Comanches have
frequent conflicts. A short time ago the
Sacs made an incursion into Comanche vii
lage and killed several of their people and
stole many of their horses A little while
after, when the Comanche warriors returned
from their hunt, they made a descent upon
the Sacs, and on their way they massacred
the two parties of United States Surveyors,
who were nnarmed and taken wholly by sur
prise.
Gen. Mathews was running some lines him
self in that part of the country during the
Summer, and thinks the report probably true.
He also states that only portion of Cald-
Wells party had got in from Western Kansas,
and the belief is that the remainder are fro
zen to death.
In my last letter, of the 30th ult., told
you of the suflerings of the General and his
party. They were not far from Caldwell's
party. They, however, after great exertion,
under which they almost sunk, reached this
city, and have been so admirably nursed as
to be nearly well again.

BorroMLEss Pr.-The Bottomless Pit in
tho Mammoth Cave Of Kentucky is suspected
by many to run through the whole diameter
of the earth. The branch terminates in it.
and the explorer suddenly finds himself
brought up on its brink, standing upon pro-
jecting platform, surrounded on three sides by
darkness and terror, gulf on the right and
a gulf on the left, and before him what seems
on interminable void He looks aloft: but
no eye has yet reached the top of the great
overarching dome; nothing is there seen but
the flashing of the water dropping from
above, smiling as it shoots by in the un-
wonted CLEAN of the lamp. He looks below,
and nothing there meets his glance save dark
ness, as thick as lampblack, but he hears
wild mournful melody of water, the wailing
of the brook for the green and the sunny
channel left in the upper world never more to
be revisited Down goes rock, tumbled
over the cliff by the guide, who is of the
opinion that folks come here to see and hear,
not to muse and be melancholy There it
goes-crashl it has reached the bottom
No-hark, it strikes again; once more and
again, still falling. Will it never stop?-
Ones hair begins to bristle as he hears the
sound repeated, growing less and less, until
the ear can follow it no longer. Certainly if
the pit of Frederick shall be eleven thousand
feet deep, the Bottomless Pit Of the Nam
moth Cave must be its equal.

A CAPTAINS ADVICE
To a yOung man soho had sailed under his
command


One thing let me say, first an1 last, as in
dispensabe as the sun is to heat, and light to
the world, do not neglect this direct COM
mand of our Savior, 'eDter into thy closet"
other things will come in their place "Be
ready in every good work." but make but lit
tie parade Of religion other than by letting
the world see that in all your actions you are
governed by moral principles, and that you
live your religion rather than preach it. /
am not ashamed to recommend my own prac-
tice as ship master, and l think good deal
more might be done under some circumstan-
ces; "but wisdom is necessary to direct"
cannot give you much advice or instruc-
ton in relation to your present voyage. But,
mainly, do your best to ascertain the position
of your ship every day; and, especially, before
you retire, consult your chart to be sure there
is nothing in your track during the night
When you are running for land keep your
own eyes open, and if on soundings, do not
neglect the lead Never allow yourself to
sleep soundly in squally weather, or gale,
until it has reached its height, or you are
snugly hove to, and nothing remains to be
done, and then be advised by the watch of
every change. Study currents and be care
full of lee sites and lee way, and discharge
any officer who allows himself habitually to
sleep in his watch Your books and charts
must tell you the rest
You must prize your health You cannot
do without it. Keep clean. Keep the cabin
clean, and especially under your berth; and
have no rotten vegetables, especially potatoes
and onions, within thousand miles of your
sleeping apartments; and eat but little fruit,
even if ripe; none otherwise. / need not
admonish you tbout drinking spirits.
Write to your shipmates, and neglect not
to say word to each on the subject of per-
sonal piety Your own friends, and yonr fa-
theirs friends, forsake not

THE gossips of Louisville have had some
little food in recent case before the courts
there. SAMUEL BELL married ELLEN, by
whom he had some children. She dying, he
married her mother, his mother-in-law, whom
he left widow. Right of dover was claim
ed by the widow, but denied by the execu-
tors. She brought suit, when the Circuit
Court decided such marriage void under laws
of l79S. The Appellate Court reversed this
decision-deciding that though such mar
riages are prohibited, divorce must be had
before the supposed wife could be considered
out of the proper line OF inheritance.

Among the Hoosiers they call cotton thread
"boss, "a term which few Yankees understand.
A fair brunette one day stepped into the
store of young merchant, and bought dress
of the clerk After it was cut of, she ad-
dressed herself to him.
"Wel | reckon you'll throw in the boss?"
"Yes," replied the clerk, with his mouth
stretched wide open with laughter; "we'll
throw in the boss, there he is you're welcome
