WALKER AND THE PEOPLE or KANsAs,-The
following letter appeared in the New York Her
aid. 1t will be seen that Gov. Walker has won
hundreds to the cause Of popular sovereignty
and just legislation by his temperate but decided
tone, and able arguments in his speach at Piola:
Gov. Walker has the people of Kansas with
him. At Piola the other day, at the land sales,
he addressed meeting -Pro-Slavery, Free
State and Aboliton-and was followed by an
ultra Garrison-Greely man, who raked up all
the old difficulties opened up old wounds, and
produced heated excitement Gov. Walker
replied in q calm, impassioned address, in which
under the excitement Of the moment, he exhib-
tied more than bis usual ability, leaving Mr..
Foster, the Abolition speaker, literally not a
plank to stand upon. The result was that out
of thousand men present, at least nine hun
dred and fifty declared openly and in the most
enthusiastic manner that they would cordially
sustain Gov. Walker. Wherever he goes, he is
received with the greatest kindness, and the
people on all sides avow purpose to sustain
him--and they will sustain him.
see it reported that be is the representative
Of mere faction in the Territory Never was
there more direct Misrepresentation On the
Sd inst, at Lecompton, q Congressional Con-
vontion was held. 1t was composed of about
two-thirds pro-slavery and one-third free State
Democrats. They nominated Ex-Gov. Ransom,
formerly Of Michigan, for Congress. They vot-
ed down--forty-two to one--a resolution pre-
sented by Mr.. jenkins, pledging the support
Of the party to the Constitution to be adopted
even if it shall not be submitted to the people.
They cordially indorsed Gov. Walker, and ap-
pointed committee inviting him to address
them and received him and his remarks with
the strongest demonstrations of applause. You

To MAKE WATER CoLD WITHOUT IcE.-The
following is simple mode of rendering water
almost as cold as ice: Let the jar. pitcher or
vessel used for water be surrounded with one
or more folds of course cotton, to be constantly
wet The evaporation of the water will carry
off the heat from the inside, and reduce 1t to a
freezing point. In India, and other tropical
climates, where ice cannot be procured, this is
common. Let every mechanic and laborer have
at his place of employment two pitchers thus
provided, and with lids or covers, one to con-
tain water for drinking, the other for evapora-
tion, and he can always have a supply of cold
water in warm weather. Any person can test
by dipping finger in the water and holding 1t
in the air on a warm day; after doing this three
or four times he will find his finger uncOmfort-
ably cold.

A PERsEvERNG LovER.-A young lady, pos
sessed Of beauty, accomplishments, and having
$4,000 in hard cash on deposit in st. Louis
started recently on trip to New York in COM
pany with her aunt She took passage on the
Tennessee Belle from Keokuk to Cincinnati.
On the same boat was q young man who had
plenty of everything but money; he had impor-
tuned her at home, and had kept up his ardent
courtship on board the boat. The lady, how
ever, was hard-hearted, and refused to give him
the least hope. The boat stopped awhile at
Carrolton, Kyy and the lady and her aunt con-
cluded to take a stroll on shore; as she was 60
ing down the gangway plank it tilted, and the
lady fell into the water. She was drawn by the
current under the wharf boat. The suiter jump
ed in, went under the boat after her, succeeded
in catching her, and finally rescued her. In
two hours she was perfectly restored, and send
ing for her deliverer, and q clergyman being on
board, they were married forthwith.

Reading Ones Own Obituary.

In a number of the New Orleans Picayune
we find the following:
The tenure of the Major Generalship Of Mas
sachusetts, like that of many other officers in
that ancient commonwealth, is for life, or dur
ing good behavior The Boston Transcript says
that one of the former lived so long that a wick
ed wag, at his reported death, gave, as O senti-
ment at public dinner:-"The memory Of our
late Major General-may he be eternally re-
warded in heaven for his everlasting services
on earth " Judge of the surprise Of the au-
thor of this toast, on learning the next day that
the report was false, and the veteran officer
still alive.
This reminds us of an occurrence that took
place in the same State some years ago. In the
days of Mycall formerly the publisher of the
Newburyport Herald-a paper still alive and
hourisbing-the Sheriff Of old Essex, Philip
Bagely, had been asked several times to pay
up his arrears of subscription. At last one day
he told Mycall that he would certainly hand
over the money the next morning as sure as
he lived. "If you don't get your money to-
morrow, you may be sure / am dead" said he.
The morrow came and passed, but no money.
Judge of the Sherif's feelings when, on the
morning of the day after, he opened his Herald
aud saw announced the lamentable decease OF
Philip Bagely, Esq, High Sheriff of the county
OF Essex with an obituary notice attached, Civ
ing the deceased credit Tor good many excel
lent traits of character, but adding that he had
one fault very much to be deplored-he was
not punctual in paying the printer.
Bagely, without waiting for his breakfast,
started for the Herald Office On the way it
struck him as singular that none of the many
friends and acquaintances he met seemed to be
surprised to see him. They must have read
their morning paper. Was it possible they
cared so little about him as to have forgotten
already that he was no more? Full of pertuba-
tion, he entered the printing office, to deny that
he was dead IN propria persona.
"Why Sheriff." exclaimed the facetious edi-
tor, IL thought you were defunct
"Defunctl" exclaimed the Sheriff, "What put
that idea in your head?"
"Why, you yourselfP' said Mycall. "Did you
not tell me-
o! ahl yesl l see' stammered out the Sheriff.
"Well there's your money. And now contra
dict the statement in the next paper, if you
please"
That's not necessary, friend Bagely," said
the old joker; "it was only printed in your
copy"
The good Sheriff lived many years after this
"sell," and to the day of his real death alw ays
took good care TO pay tho printer

THE MOB MURDER IN IowA.-It is time that
the lynchings which have recently taken place
in Iowa were called by their right name. The
hanging of William B. Thomas, in Montezuma,
was as foul murder as was ever perpretrated
by midnight assassin The Oshkosh Herald
gives the following additional particulars of the
event:
"No sooner was the decision of the Court CIV
en- [changng the venue, in order that he might
have fair trial. than a regular organized mob
of about two hundred men proceeded TO the old
court house, where the prisoner was confined,
and demanded and by force took Thomas from
the custody of the sheriff, and amid the terrfy-
| ing shrieks OF the prisoner and the most hellsh
revelings of the mob. carried him away to q
tree which they had previously prepared, in the
suburbs of the town. Here, without even ad-
herring to the customs of lynch law, or abiding
by the honor of mob force, they placed the rope
around the prisoners neck, and demanded q
confession of the crime The prisoner plead his
innocence. The rope was drawn over limb
and the prisoner swung into the air. After
few struggles he was let down, and again de-
manded to make confession. Again he plead
innocent Of the crime. Again he was hung up,
and fire kindled beneath his feet. The mob
threatened to burn him if he did not confess the
murder Again he was let down. From the
strangulaton received he had lost his strength
and his voice. The mob still demanded con
fesson The prisoner, in the faintness of death,
persisted that he was innocent Again he was
hung up, where be remained until he was dead.
The Herald says that this makes the tenth vic
tim of mob violence in Iowa since the first Of
April-four in Jackson, five in Cedar, and one
in Poweshiek.

GETTING AT THE TRUTH-Small Joe l.
was playing one sunny morning in yard at
the rear of his residence, when essaying to cast
a stone high in the air, he found he had mscacu-
lated his strength, or the weight of the stone, as
that missile slipped from his fingers and taking
an entirely different direction than that intend
ed, went whack through pane of glass in
neighbours window. Mrs. Connolly, who was
engaged in washing in the kitchen, hearing the
smash Of glass in her spare room, rushed hastily
to the scene of action, and through the broken
pane beheld Joe in active retreat. Irate and
indignant, the injured natron sought the pres
ence of Mrs. L----, and straitway poured forth
the story of her wrongs. Mrs, L-assumed
dgniiied air; the culprit was called 20 the pres
ence; and the inquest on the departed pane
commenced.
"Joseph," said Mrs L with awful solemnty,
"did you break the glass in Mrs. Connelly's
wiudow2"
"Yes'm," replied Joe, with promptitude.
"Joseph," said Mrs. Il, "if you broke
that pane Of glass, shall certainly correct you
did you break it sir?"
Joe hesitated but conscience was powerful
and he replied that he did.
Mrs L--took stick from the mantelpiece,
and said "Joseph, if You broke that glass, |
shall correct you most severely. | ask again;
did you break w
Joe looked at his mother, he looked at the
stick, and hanging his head, he murmured: "no
