HORRIBLE DEATH.-The correspondent of an
Eastern paper tells of the death of Mr.. Aben, in
Clinton county, Iowa, caused by the breath of
blow snake Mr.. A., being new settler, was en-.
rey ignorant OF the nature of the blow snake, and
seeing one he got elose enough to strike it, when the
snake suddenly raised itself up and blew in its pur-
sler lace, causing Mr. Aben to nhale the breath of
the reptile, poisonous enough to cause the death of
the unfortunate man in a short time The story
sounds not less improbable than monstrous.

Salt Lake.

A correspondent of the st. Louis Repub-
Ecan, describing a visit to Salt Lake, says
after about two hours drive we approached
the margin of the great lake. For miles the
long flats from which the water had receded,
presented the appearance of snow and ice, so
perfectly incrusted was it with pure salt,
the crystalized deposits flashing in the sun
light like nyriads of diamonds. We finally
came upon the fiat and rode for miles over a
plain of hard unauthorized salt, as hard al
most as graveled turnpike. Talk about
your I" shell roads," give me the Lake fat
white as snow, sparkling with saline dia-
monds, and as level as billiard table, Lime
stone, gravel boulders and Russ pavements
will do very well for the States, but we in
the mountains here dash our nags at l. two
forty" speed over plains of immaculate and
crystalized salt, no dust no cireumscribed
boundaries of hedge or fence, but a wide ex-
panse so white that bridal dress would be
unsullied if brought in contact with its pol
ished surface.

The contest an Illinois.

As the election approaches, the friends of
Douglas grow more confident of his being
triumphantly sustained by the people of IL
linois. The evidences that he is carrying
the hearts of the people with him, are every
day multiplying. The letter of Gov. Crit
tenden to Judge Dickey, has had decided
influence upon the feelings of the American
party and the Old Line Wings, whose
course, few weeks since, was doubtful
1t is reported upon good authority that Mr..
Crittenden has written another letter to Mr..
Lincoln himself in which he laments the
course pursued by the Republicans of Illi-
nois towards Douglas, as unfortunate and
disastrous to the cause of the national con-
sentative party, that was about to be cement
ed in coalition of the opponents of the
Buchanan Administration. This letter has
been called for but has not been published,
though its existence is not denied. 1t was
drawn from Mr. Crittenden by those to whom
it is addressed for the purpose of influencing
the votes of Old Wings and Americans but
as its publication would have the opposite
effect, it is kept concealed from the world
We have little doubt that on Wednesday
morning next, the Telegraph will herald to
the country glorious triumph for the cham
pion of popular sovereignty.

The Douglas Meeting Mt Lawrence
willie.

A friend informs us that we were mista-
ken in saying the appointment for Judge
Douglas to speak at Lawrenceville was made
without his knowledge and sanction. Fin
ley S. Preston, Esq, the friend of Judge
Douglas, who made the announcement, ad-
dressed the crowd of two or three thousand
persons assembled at Lawrenceville on
Thursday, and stated that Judge Douglas
had authorized him to make the announce
ment, and in order to fulfill it, the Judge
had relinquished an appointment previously
made to speak at Rock Island, where he had
once spoken, and had sent friend to fill it,
that he (the Judge) might come to Law
renceville, and speak in Wabash and White
countless in a section Of the State he had
not visited. The train of cars on the llli-
nois Central railroad failed ON Thursday to
connect with the train going East on the
Ohio and Mississippi road. This accident
was probably the cause of Judge Douglas
failure to be at Lawrenceville ON Thursday
noon. he was expected to reach there on
the Thursday night train, and probably
spoke at Carmi yesterday. So confident
were many from this city that the Judge
would be at ,Carmi on Friday, that they re-
manned over to hear him. The crowd that
was gathered at Lawrenceville on Thursday,
notwithstanding the unfavorable weather,
was very large, and composed of the most
respectable and substantial people,-the
backbone of the country. A large number
of prominent citizens from this State and
Kentucky, were present. The people o.
Lawrenceville threw open their houses, and
entertained the concoursc of strangers in
the most hospitable manner.

The Political Importance of Prize
Fighting.


The New York Express says that the rea-
son why so much importance is given in
New York to the prize fighters the bruisers
and the men of the ring, arises from the
fact that they are the creators of the gov
ernment,-the substratum upon which judges
even are made, members of Congress, State
legislators, and the city government. They
run the "Primary Machine, and it is the
| Primary Machine that makes nominations,
| and it is nominations that makes elections.
The Primary Machine is the creation of the
bruisers, because it is the bruiserS of society
alone that at rniscalled primary election,
can drive off and beat off, and box of, the
| non-fghting members of society, or alone
secure the inspectors of the primary cleo
ton" to have votes counted as desired.
The Importance of bruiser in the eye OF
the Federal Government is seen in the fact,
that while huge paw bod carrier receives
only one dollar per day, or an honest
carpenter his one dollar and fifty cents, the
"Benecia Boy receives an appointment un-
der Collector Schell worth fifteen hundred
dollars per car,-about five dollars per day,
with only some three or four hours work
to do, and that very easy. Now Collector
Schell is the creature of the President of the
United States; and if Collector Sehell did
not appoint bruisers and boxers to run the
Primary Machine, the appointment would
not be satisfactory to the Federal Govern
ment and he would be removed.
