CY-Mr Buchanan is thoroughly dead, and
we do not suppose that anything can restore
him to life. 1t was an old Greek tradition
that woman named Medea, famous witch
chopped her old father into mince meat and
put him into pot to boil, in the hope that
he would presently come forth alive. The
experiment didn't succeed, but possibly it
might do better in the case of old Mr.. Bu-

THE NEWSPAPER PRESS AND ILLINOIS The
election in Illinois, says Forney's Press, has
greatly disarranged the calculations of the
narty wiseacres of the day Reading through
a legion of exchange papers, we have been
amused and interested at the various specula-
tions which this election has called forth. To
the Washington Union it has been can ex-
tinguisher" Had forty wet blankets fallen
upon that official luminary, fed with the oil
of patronage, and shining in the shadow of
The White House, it could not have been
more utterly quenched. Nothing can its
light relume but the genius of the Attorney
General, Judge Black, whose newspaper
genius is beyond all present and all former
fame, and whose prudence is nearly equal to
his good manners. The New York Herald
treats the result in Illinois in strain of min
gled malice and chagrin. We trust the Her
aid does not contemplate a desertion of the
administration for if it does, Heaven help
the party it may join Upon certain other
of the Administration papers the Illinois fig
uiNS h"NO h"VO p" USSp ihi hi'l0SotOh' IL 10 as
tonishing how these figures have increased
the popularity of Judge Douglas in their
eyes Even an occasional postmaster dares
now to say that the Judge is not "a Black
Republican ;" while those who hold no Of
flee, but only expect to get one, begin to
measure the chances OF success under the
current dynasty, and wonder who may be
king hereafter Some of the New England
Dalgettys are excellent specimens of this
class. In the Southern States, the fire of the
most fiery fire-eaters has subsided the bitter
curse of yesterday is modified; the half writ
ten reproaeh of to-day is erased; and convic-
tion itself begins to take another hue under
the magic of SUCCESS. Nowhere is there to
be found any of the acrimony that was so
fashionable two weeks ago. We congratu-
late Judge Douglas. He is the great alchy-
mist of the day.

Mr.. EDIToR-We desire to call the atten.
ton of the farming portion of our community
to the instructive ard interesting paper, known
as "The Iowa Farmer" We need only say
that ITS location having been changed from Mt.
Pleasant to the new Capitol, it is cow being
conducted under new and favorable auspices.
The office of the paper is this: 1t is intended
as a medium of communication between the
State agricultural University, and the County
Agricultural Societies of the several counties
throughout the State. 1t has already secured,
as regular contributors, many Of the best and
most practica farmers Of the commonwealth.
1t is now no longer conducted undeI its old
form. but its columns are made up almost en-
tire ly OF contributions from different counties.
The paper, in this respect, presents a new and
interesting feature. Questions of every va
rety, are proposed and answered by the diff
ferent contributors. Questions of interest and
importance to every farmer.
1t offers the avenue of communication be-
tween the farmers Of every County in the
State, and those who were formerly strangers
may now become "familiar friends" 1t in
spires common interest and should be well
sustained.
The Terms may be learned by calling at the
Office Of A. A. Stuart, in Pumroy's Building

ST. LOUIS. Aprll u.
The Republican has inst received letters
from Independence. stating that the Santa Fe
mail with dates to the first of April arrived
on the ODD.
Between Fort Union and the Arkansas liver
The party encountered violent snow storms
which were followed by cold so severe as to
freeze some of the animals in the coming
train.
Outrages still continue on the Indians in the
southern parts Of the Territory.
VIM. Giddings, a mail contractor on the
southern route, had been killed bv Thomas
Smith, in an ARRAY growing out of dispute
over game of billiards.
An encounter occurred between Preston
Beck, of the firm of Beck & Johnson, and a
man named German, in which the latter was
killed, and the former dangerously wounded,
and is not expected to survive. Beck was ex-
tensively connected with the commercial in
terests of the territory.
The Santa Fe papers say Capt. Marcy had
been overtaken by an express from Genl. Gar
and, directing him to wait until an escort of
four companies could join him.
Marcy was resting on the Arkansas river,
near Brent's Fort. The escort was sent direct
in accordance with instruction from head quar-
tiers. expressed from Leavenworth some weeks
since. -|a ""~
The Republican has received an extra from
the office Of the Fort Smith, Arkansas, Times
which states that 1000 Indians are congregat-
ed on the plains with the determination of
making descent on the frontier.
Hostlities had already commenced in some
quarters, and the Albuquerque expedition had
returned in consequence.
The Times extra, attributes this movement,
to Brigham Young to draw off troops for Utah
to protect the frontier States.
The Republican emphatically contradicts
the statement on authority Of a gentleman at
tached to the overland mail expedition, who
reached here yesterday from Ell Passo, and
who travelled over the country, said to be oc.
cupied by these Indians, subsequent to the
time they are represented TO have been on the
route without any molestation whatever.

The election on Monday passed off without
any serious disturbance, but though the can
vass was spirited, the vote was considerably
below the vote of the City. There were poll.
ed for the three candidates for Mayor, only
254 votes, which we believe to be not more
than three fourth the number which might be
found. There are not few residents on the
various subdivisions around the City who
really constitute portion Of our population,
but were not eligible at this election: besides,
the charter requires residence of six months
to entitlet o the privilege of voting, which pro-
vision cut off a good many. Another reas on
which might be assigned for light vote was
the fact that one of the parties was so split
up aud divided that more or less doubtless, as
is usual in snch cases. refused to vote.
