WISTER.-A light snow has covered the
ground for several days, and the tokens Of ap-
preaching Winter are beginning TO show them
selves every where. The forests are stripped
Of their foliage and the fields are robbed of their
herbagp. The sun shines family in the heav-
ems and ,he rude winds come dashing from the
North, Oh their icy chargers. And We are
glad that winter is here, for TO US it IS the hap
pies, and merriest of all the seasons. There IS
new lie in lis keen and frosty airs. There is
joyousncss in the tinkIe OF It's bells, there IS
grandeur in lis storms and greatness in its floods.
And in the ''long Winter evenings" there is
pleasure at the firrside and in The par lor; there
IS fascination in books and "periect glory''
in the creations Of Art and OF Science. May
ihe coming winter be merry one 10 every one
Of Gods crra:urss and may il especially have
30 rigors for be helpless poor wherever they

THE INDIANS iH WAsuINGToN TEREIrhRY.-
Gov. Stevens, The delegate TO Congress from
Washington Territory, contemplateS urging on
the Secretary OF War The necessity ofthe reIen-
ton in that Territory Of portion of the troops
recently engaged there in queIin5 the Indian
hoSilites. He thinks that at least four rrgi-
ments are essential TO be kept there, in order
that the Government may maintain the advan-
tages over the uniriendIy Indians which have
been gained through the energetic movements
OF Gen. Clark aud Col Wright. One Of The
u osl influential chief: belonging to the hostile
lFlbes-Camakln-ha not yet been brought to
terms, aud Gov. 5. believes that on the with
drawa Of the troops, this man will gather a
horde OF those about him who entertain unfriend-
~ sentiments towards the whites, and engage
IN maraucing expeditions against the settle
mrnts. The retention of the troops viii have
the effect OF keeping these bands quiet. Gov.
= Is sangulhe that there will be large influx
Of settlers into the Territory, in case such
measures are adopted as shall leave no room for
apprehenslons OF another outbreak among the
Indians.
The statement that Gen. Harvey has been re-
called lrom the command Of the Department OF
The Pacific, North, embracing this Territory
and Oregon, and ordered TO the command oi
the Department OF the West, with his head
quarters at 81. Louis, is apparently unfounded.-

UTOne of the most awful results Of sleep
walking of which we hava heard for a long
time transpired at ST. LOUIS pm Sunday night.
On Friday evening, says the St. Louis Repub-
llcan, farmer named John, Bray, fro,n indi-
ana, who was removing to some point on The
Missouri river with his wife, iather-in-iaw, and
lour children, came in on tho Ohio and
Mississippi Railroad. Being in Strengthened
circumstances, the iamily obtained permission TO
stop for the night in small room on the ferry
dock at the foot of Car street. Between twelve
and one O'Clock in the night Bray arose, in his
sleep, and taking his youngest child, aged three
years, in his arms, actually walked from The
room and. INTO the water The pitcous wailing
cries OF the child, and The loud calls of the ia
ther for help, soon drew number of persons
TO the melancholy scene from adjacent places
on the Levee. The .;antic grief OF the family
partook OF the incoherence and wldness OF the
maniac, and is described TO be ofrhe most heart
rendringI description. Before ingenuity could
resolve on auy way of rescuing the drowning
objects both had sunk, to be seen no more alive.

A Blow FOR SPIRITUALIsM.-An IN exchange
states that young man has just returned home
who was believed TO have been lost in the
wrecked barque Wade, of New Bedford, ten
years ago. For long while his father has
been consersing with him in the spirit land, and
the last message through "medium" was to
the effect that he "wes among the saints, and
crown Of glory was awaiting his faiher."-
His appearance In the land of the living Is The
greatest blow 'spFituahsm" has ever received.
