How WILL CAREY Go TO WASHINGTON 2
We are anxious to know, nov that Anti
Friction Carey is elected to Congress by
nine majority, how he will get to Washing
ton, take his seat9 Ho certainly viii not
90 on the railroad, for he is afraid Of friction.
How, then, will he go? On footl-or will
some of his old fogy friends take him there
in wheclbarrowa Perhaps the editor of
the Fremont Journal can cnlighten us on
tho subject. Wonder Carey won't intro
duce bill prohibiting tho construction Of
any more railroads in the Union l--and an
other prohibiting poor men from voting.--
For he certainly thinks Congress has the
power - OHapa Democrat.
The cur who edits the Ottowa Democrat
feels sore after the whipping given to his
party by CAREY. His wounds arc not yei
healed and at every slight efriction" of his
hurts he whines, howls and snaps at every
thing he secs or hears. 1t is lucky that be
IS kept so near the lake. Were he moi
no would surely have the hydrophobia,--
He has had tho premonitory symptoms fo
long time, being blind and exceedingly
irritable.

cause the County Treasurer did not publish
the Tax Notice in his paper and says "the

not be posted as to the rates of taxes in

Well, the democracy rule in Sandusky

At the Fulton street prayer meeting n
few days since, the following remarkable
and touching scene occurred, says the New
York Commercial:
Tho 9lst psalm had been read by The
conductor of the meeting, and several pray
crs offered and remarks made, when gen
tlemen rose in tho congregation and made
some very affecting remarks on the subject
Of faith and trust in God under all circum-
stances, and by way Of illustration made
mention Of case on board the dustrid--
He said that lie had been informed by
some one, for he had no personal knowl-
edge of the parties, that q man whose wife
and son were on board the unfortunate ship,
had. recently been making most deligent in
quiry Of tho rescued passengers who had
arrived in our city, trying to learn, II pos
sible, something as to the fate Of his wife
and son. That on describing his wifo to
one of the passengers that he had sought
out, that passenger thought from the hus
bands description that he had seen such Q
woman on board. The husband produced
a daguncotype Of his wife, and the passcn
ger Immediately exclaimed: "That is the
very woman, and God bless you, my deal
sir, for it was she that organized a prayer
meeting on board, in which my soul wai
blessed in my conversion" He then in
formed the afflicted husband that the las
he saw of his wife and son they were stand
ing as far aft as they could get away from
the flames, and when at last the devourinl
element rushed on to them with such force
as to be no longer ondurablo, he saw thu
wife and mother, with calm serene coun
tenance. embrace the son, and then boil
committed themselves to a watery grave.
But the singular coincidence in connec
ton with this, we have yet to relate
When the meeting had concluded, a maj
who sat in the same seat with the one who
addressed the meeting, and The very mex
man to the speaker, clasped his hands, anC
stood for a moment, unable to utter word
such was his emotion, but at last said
"That women was my wife. and |, stran
ger to every one here, have come in to seeI
consolation and to ask an interest in you
suppications, that God would assuage m,
grief, and bind up my broken heart
The sceno was deeply affecting, and neve
to be forgotten by those who witnessed it.
This rescued passenger said in the meet
ing, that when in tho water swimming,
pious friend inquired Of him how he felt il
view of death? replied: Perfectly hap
py; l can now rely on Jesus, and ar
safe" And looking up on tho ship, add
ed, "Therc stands tho noble woman, wit
her sous hand in hers, to whom | owe a
my hopes of salvation, for she it was tina
got up all tho prayer meetings"
What a consolation to the bcreavcd has
band to know that the last hours of his dc
voted, Christian wife were spent in sue
acts of love to souls.

of Mr.. Slidell, Of Louisiana, who is acquaint-

Douglas has farmed out these souls and

labor--farned them out in mass, for
about fifteen thousand dollars per annum

SuIcIDE.-T The body Of the young man was
taken away from the house on Wednesday
night, and carried to the undertaker's in
Eighth avenue yesterday morning. The
body was placed in plain coffin, carried to
Greenwood Ccmetry, and buried in the
family lot. The impression has been made
in some reports that have been circulated
that Frank has been leading dissolute life
for several years, but such is not the case.
TIo was always an cratic and somewhat
singular boy, but in no way dissipated till
within tho last six months Since he left
Tho store in Plat street, he has fallen into
bad company, and has been out very late
nights. There is no evidence to show that
he was in the habit of drinking.
Mr.. Gouldy was still alive last night, but
there is scarcely any hope of his recovery
His wounds were dressed yesterday, and
appeared very well. He has at times lucid
intervals, when he recognizes his friends
and seems to be conscious Of his situation
he appears perfectly resigned, and talks
Of aeoine home to his Saviour" These in
terya.s arc, however, very short; his mind
soon wanders, and no becomes unconscious,
Mrs. Gouldy is doing very well, and, un-
less some new difficulties should arise, the
chances arc that she will recover.
! Nattic, The eldest boy, is very low in
deed; the physicians consider his case the
~ hopeless of the four at the house.
His skull is very badly cnt and broken in
and it is almost impossible that he can re
cover. He talksa great deal, is very cheer
fnl, and bears all his suffering most heroi
eally. Nyhilo tho surgeons were saving
out piece of his skull, Matte neveI

CROSSING TIE OCEAN IN A BALLOON
Mr.. La Mountain tho balloonist, on Satur-
day last published in. the Wing PROPOSE
ton for loan of $4,000, to be applied to
the construction of vessel for navigating
tho air--the purpose being to accomplish
trip across tho Atlantic, starting from this
point and landing somewhere in England

prise, and says thai "such arrangements
will be mado with stockholders as will Sc
csze them a return Of thoir money with-good
interest, before tho ship leaves land, or a
continued interest on it, as they choose
This proposition has called forth an en-
quiry from professor in ono of our educa-
tional Institutions, designed to test the the
oretical knowledge of the baloonist with
regard to the subject Of Transatlantic eral
navigation. Ho is asked whether he will
bo ablo to stem the various currents OF

ship sustain sufficient buoyancy to keep upi
What rate Of motion viii it be capable Of

His answers TO these queries viii show
whether no possesses sufficient knowledge
Z OF thc various air currents to enal 10 him to
make the experiment of crossing The ocean
!, with his balloon. Whether such an enter
sprisp Is practicable, or not is another ques,
ton. There seems, at least to be a general
disposition in favor of experimenting inths

things America should DO in any degree
