A DAY WITHOUT A SUN-A DREAM
OF EGYPT IN LAPLAND.

We make the following quotation from let
ter from Bayard Taylor, dated:
K4UToKE1oN, Norwegian Lapland,
January 20, 1857.
We awoke at 8 O'Clock to find a clear twilight
and cold of 10 deg. below zero. Our stay at
Muoniovara had given tie sun time to increase
bis altitude somewhat, and had some doubts
whether we should succeed in beholling day of
the Polar Winter. The Landsman, however, en-
couraged us by the assurance that the sun has not
yet riser upon his residence, though nearly six
weeks had elapsed since his disappearance. but
that his return was now looked for every day,
since he had already begun TO shine on the north
ern hills. By 10 O'Clock it was light enough to
read the southern sky was as broad sea of golden
orange, dotted with few crimson cloud,Islands,
and we set ourselves to watch, with some anxiety
the gradual approach of the exiled god. But for
this circumstance, and two other drawbacks,
should have gone 10 church to witness the Lapps
at their'reli1ious exercises. Pastor Hvoslef was
i'll, and the service consisted only of the reading
of some prayers by the Lapp schooImaster; added
to which, the church is never warmed, even in
the coolest days of winter One cause of this per-
haps is the dread of an accidental confagration;
but the main reason is the inconvenience which
would arise from the thawing out ofso many an
tiquated reindeer garments and the efluvia given
out bv the warm bodies within them. Conse
ouently the temperature inside the church is about
the same as outside, and the frozen moisture of
the worshipers' breath forms frosty cloud d-so
dense as to sometimes to hide the clergyman from
the view ofhis congregation. Pastor Hvoslef in
formed me that he had frequently preached in a
temperature of 35 deg, below zero. eat such

Tue APPoIsTWEErs.--AmOng other appoint
ees. it would appear that Whitfield, our bogus
Delegate to Congress, is receiver Of one Ofthe land
Offices. Clarke, the ex Pottawatome agent, has
got post in one Of these Offices for brother in
law ofbis, named Daks. As the latter indiyid-
ual is VIGOROUSLY incompetent, although qualified
by being very great RuiIian, It is stated that
Clarke will really hold the Office. and that this
rule was adopted as Clarke has an indictment for
murder hanging over him for the case Of Barber,
and could not hold it. do not see the necessity
for such beating about the bush, Emory, anoth-
er Of the appointees, is either charged with mur.
jer or robbery, or at least ought to be. The on
y exceptional case is Ransom, the Ex-Governor Of
Michigan, who has been here, and has recon-
mended himself 50 well to the pro-slavery men BY
bis Pro-slayery professions that they are willing to
take him.
CIVIL ELECTION IN LEAvENVoTH.-T The peo-
pie Of Leayenworth have had an election Of May
or. The Free State men nominated Mr. Adams,
member Of the "statesenate,' and that gentle
man has been elected over his pro-sayery compeer.
This the people of Leayenworth have done before
The last Mayor Pro.slayery man vas elected BY
a bare faced fraud-stuhIng the ballot boxes
While This election will be regarded by the people
Of Loayenworth as a victory, there is feature
connected with it tha! may deceive them. This
election was not conducted on these fraudulent
census lists. Again, the MssOurians living over
in Platte county, did not consider it worth their
while to come over to vote at a purely local
election. 1t cannot for a moment be trusted as an
indication of what the Constitutional Delegate
election would be.
Census L1sr.--The census lists have not yet
been stuck up to the gaze Of an admiriug world
have been trying my best to see the list of this
county, and, also of johnson county, but in vain.
The latter, I haYe reasons to believe would make
some rich developments, but it is sedulously kept
from the vulgar gaze.
ELzcrIoN.-The sales Of Government Lands
are to be held in June. The Constitutional elec-
ton is also to be held at that time. What coin
cidence! Can the ex.President, who issuel the
proclamation for the lands, tell us the meaning Of
this! 1t is significant to those who understand
Kansas affairs.
LAsE,-Col. Lane is hele. Like the rest oi
mankind, he has gone into speculation. and the
rumor about his expedition to Kansas being FL
lbuster one is like good many of the other sto-
ries trumped up. He returned some days ago.
He, along with a Free State company. have pur-
chased the town of Doniphan. What makes that
more rich is, that the President has Just located
land Office there, no doubt under the impression
that it was still pro-slayery town, The Mis-
souri, papers represent that Robinson and Lane
have luarrelled. I have authority for saying that
the relations between these were never more ami.
cable than at present.

NEW GOVERNOR OF UTAH.

The Washington Union announces, at the
head of its leading editorial column, that it under
stands that the Governorshp of Utah Territory
has been rendered to Major Benz. Mccullough, Of
Texas, and "that there is every reason to believe
that he will accept the Office" The Union says:
at would be difficult to name another person who
combine in himself so many qualities for the sue
cessful discharge Of the duties of this important
and delicate trust as are undoubtedly possessed by
Major Mccullough" This reads as il the Ad.
ministration intended bestowing unequivocal at
tention upon the Salt Lake community. 1t is
presumed that the great mass Of the Mormon
people viii be glad to avail themselves of an op-
nortunity to escape from the loathsome and exac-
ling despotism of the obscene prophets, and that
the notorious braggart Brigham Young, could not
if he dare, raise much of a rebellion.-Clepeland

A FREE Soil PAPER IN TExAs.-The Calves
ton News is very severe in its denunciations Of tie
Quitman Free Press, a newspaper published in
Wood county, for lis 'open and bitter hostility TO
Southern Institutions" 1t processes TO support
the southern Democracy, and still ventures to be-
leve, and what is still more important. to say that
the interests of Texas would be greatly promoted
by substituting free for slave labor. And to rend
er the case still more alarming, the News says
that the Democracy Of Wool county have elected
the editorv of this same apti.sayery paper to rep
resent them in the State Convention. The News
is candid enough to eoncede that "if the people Of
that section Of the State, or any large number Of
them. desire to rid themselves of negro slavery,
we suppose they have perfect right to do 50 in
constitutional and legitimate manner" This is
n stretch Of common sense which has not been at
tained in many Of the Southern States The limo
will come however, when the question will be
canvassed as pre-eminenty as one Of home interest
