Nothing can exceed the beauty and COM

used to such climate that we can hardly
make ourselves believe that it Is winter. =
The brilliamcy of the sun BY day, and the
bright moonlight nights-the heavens clear
as crystal-the lurid fires running on the
prairies By night-aH have the appearance
of September in Illinois. or Wisconsin,
The frost during the night forms thin
crust over the surface of small pools of wa
ter, and our small streams have not, this
season, been clothed with an icy mantle,
nor has the ground been frozen enough to
withstand the rays of the sun. Mechanics
have found but very few days that they
could not work upon the outside of their
frames. At this writing the sound of the
hammer is heard around rs, and sthe-o-

the scarcity of money and the hard times,
preparations are being made for extensive
building the coming spring and summer.

A Great wirdfa1l--sl7, ,ooo, 900.

Thomas Winans, of Baltimore, says the
Clipper of that city, has, it learns, recover
ed claim of S5,OOO,0 900 against the Russ
ian Government, which makes his share of
tie proceeds from freight and passenger
travel over the railroads of that country
reach the sum of S17,OOO,OOO, drafts for
which on the banks of Europe have been
brought on to him. 1t appears that in his
contract with Russia, he was to receive a
certain per centage on all freight and pass
enger travel, but it was thought by the
Government that they were exempted from
this tax when applied to the transportation
of soldiers to take part in the war of the
Crimea. he accordingly engaged the serv-
ices of John II. B. Latrobe, Esq, who went
and recovered the claim by due course of
law, and, on account of the many thousand
soldiers transported, his proportion was
swelled from twelve to seventeen millions.
Mr. Latrobe, we understand, received fee
of $4,000 a month independent of his ex-
penses, and upon reaching Baltimore and
announcing the result of his labors, was
presented with check for $780, 600.

Swiss Immigration to Missouri.

1t is with mitch pleasure that we re-pub-
lish the subjoined item of intelligence, which
we find in the columns of our eotenporary
of the Evening Nesos. 1t chronicles the re-
ginning of most remuneratiye and needed
branch of manufacture In the west, and
those who will reflect for moment upon
the immense quantities of wool grown IN
the valley of the Mississippi, and the still
greater quantities that must be hereafter pro-
duced on the vast stretches of pastoral lands
reaching to the base of the Rocky noun
tains, viii be inclined to wonder why its
manufacture has not been before attempted
In the west. There is no reason, why the
seat and center of its production should not
also be selected as the points most eligible
for converting it into fabrics and merchan-
disc. The Neacs says: oE
..Thomas Allen, Esq, has recently sold
his property, commonly called sCheltenham, ,
about FIVE miles out on the Pacific railroad,
to colony of Swiss, numbering about fifty,
who mean to establish there manufactory
for fabricating wooden yarns and goods, of
a superior quality. Specimens of yarns,
such as they manufacture, exhibit wonder
full strength and inehess.
The grounds attached-about 80 acres
will be divided into gardens, and cultivated
in garden vegetables and fruits by the colo
ny, for their support.
This movement is one of considerable in
terest, and may result in the introduction of
an important branch of manufactures, to be
added to our city's trade, as well as lead to
the growth of a large village of the most
skillful European artisans in our vicinity.
Thus, by degrees, our country may, III the
future, become free from the necessity of
foreign imports.
The price paid for .Cheltenham,' embra-
cling the buildings and 80 acres of land,
was S25, ,OOO."
In regard to this Swiss colony we may re-
mark one other fact. More than year ago,
a very large body of Swiss emigrants had
collected at Cincinntai and dispatched agents
throughout the northwest to choose lands
for their future home. At the moment. how
ever, their attention was directed to the free
labor movement in Missouri, and the promise
of its speedy emancipation, as well as the
vast resources of the state, which the dis
cussion of that question brought under their
observation, induced some of their more en-
terprising leaders to visit this state, and the
result is Just beginning to be felt. One col
ony, if we are rightly informed, has already
purchased, or is in treaty for several thous-
and acres of land in the southwest; another
for like quantity in the southeast, and the
third, as we see has completed its bargain
for the site of CheItenham. The establish
ment of such pioneer settlements will do
much to attract hither the industrious and
thrifty of thir countrymen, who are inferior
to no class of citizens who migrate from Eu
rope, and thus we have promise of a vast
accession to the industrial force of the state.
This is one of the first fruits of the free soil
and free labor movement; what can the fire.
eaters show as an equally beneficial result
of their favorite doctrine of slavery propa-
