Estate of Henry Steele.

At session Of the Probate Court for the coun-

ON reading and filing tho petition, duly veri-

in connection with Zina Steele, entered into n

ARRIVAL OF Ns-DEPARTURE
= FOR THEIR NEW HOMES.

During the past week or ten days our
village has presented more the appear
ance of an animated wig-wam than the
quiet settlement of civilization we were
won't to regard it. Each day has wit
messed the advent Of innumerable canoe
loads of dusky "children of the forest"
with their hunting gear, cooking utensils
and papooses, and from their numbers we
almost feared they had come to dispossess
the pale faces hereabouts of what once
they claimed as theirs; but such il seems
was not the object of their visit. They
were residents of the several tribes OF
Northern Michigan, and were on their
way to the new homes generously pro-
vided for them by Government, in
Oceana County. The grant of land is 80
acres to each and every member of the
various tribes who choose to settle on the
same; and they are likewise provided
with farming implements, household uten-
sis, seeds, &C., wherewith 10 cultivate
their farms and earn for themselves an
Independent livelihood. This idea of col
onizing the ''untutored child of Nature
is by no means new one, nor has it
ever proved successful in its object; but
the fault in the main has been attributed
to the insufficiency and incompleteness Of
the arrangements for their education and
sustenance. We think the liberality Of
the Government, as exemplifed in the
present scheme of colonization, worthy the
highest need ofpraise, and have no doubt
that it will prove beneficial in its results
The Rev. Mr.. FITcH, the Indian agent
superintended in person all the arrange
ments for the removal and settlement o.
these poor unfortunates, an to his indie
fatigable energy in their behalf is due, il
great measure, the consummation of this
scheme. Mr.. f. left for Pent Water
Oceana County, on Monday morning last
on board the propeller G. Aears, with
about $50 men, women and children un
der charge. Others are constantly arriv
ing here and departing in small boats fol
their new homes. We heartily wish then
prosperity and happiness in their unitet
efforts to follow in the track of civilization
and christianity.

STATE CONGREGATIONAL AS.
ISOLATION.

This Ecclesiastical body brought its la
bors TO close on Monday the 23d inst.
Interesting discussions were had on the
Slavery question, on the subject of patron
izing the Boston and Cincinnati Ameri-
can Tract Society, in purchasing tracts
and books instead Of the New York So
ciety, on account of its position relative
10 the publication of tracts relating to
slavery, and the tobacco question.
The Slavery question was disposed of
as is usually the case in such bodies.
On the Tract question, after long and
interesting debate and mature consider
alton of the pros and cons, the following
resolution was passed.
Resolved, That this Association does
not and can not approve the attitude of
the American Tract Society, of New
York, on the subject of slavery; but, on
the contrary, it does approve both the
American Tract Society of Boston and
the American Book and Tract Society Of
Cincinnati,and recommends to the church.
es TO support and receive the publications
of both or either of them at their plea
sure.
On tobacco there was long discuss
| ion, and the "veed" was brought into
great disrepute, and strong defamation
uttered against smoking, "chawing" and
shutting. Good! We heartily approve
our religious leaders taking the initiative
in this reform, and truly hope that all Of
those guilty of The dirty, ungentlemanly,
abominable practice, will set the example
of reform to their stray brethren and to
the world, by signing the pledge of total
abstinence from the use of the filthy weed
in every form, and then with firm hand
and courageous heart, pass it round
Such a course will do more to bring about
the desired reform than score of con-
demnatory resolutions of associations, a
hat full Of sermons, or an old fashioned
New England cart load of Tracts.

DRowNED.-On Saturday evening last,
about o'clock, as the schooner s. Bates,
from Chicago, came up to the dock of c..
DAVIS d Co., in this place, the first mate,
Mr.. Charles Blankmyers, in endeavoring
to jump ashore with line missed his
footing, feel into the water and was
drowned. 1t was quite dark at the time
the accident occurred, and it is supposed
the unfortunate man struck his head
against the dock, and was stunned thereby,
and he sank withouta struggle or without
uttering a word. Every effort was made
by the officers and crew Of the vessel 10
rescue their comrade, but all their en-.
deavors proved unavailing. His body
was recovered about an hour afterwards
and buried here in the village cemetery
on Sunday afternoon. In accordance will
beautiful, and, we believe, universe
custom among sailors when comradC
dies, the flags of the shipping in the har
Dor were suspended at half mast. The
deceased, we are informed, was an unmar.
ried man, about twenty-seven years Of
age, and /" shipped aboard the Bates al
Chicago only few days before the occur
renee of the accident which deprived him
Of life.- Muskegon Reporter.

THE EUROPEAN WAR.


The most interesting intelligence from
Europe relative to the war movements
has reference to Napoleon III, who left
Paris on the 18th inst, for Genoa, TO
assume command Of the French army
The world will watch with intense interest
the movements Of this wonderful sover-
eign. From the moment he emerged
from his exile in England 10 assume
the Presidency of the Republic, and from
his subsequent elevation as the head and
heart of the French Empire, his star Of
destiny has seemed to be ever in the as
cendnacy, and growing brighter and more
dazzling in its resplendency.
Now he assumes the character Of a
military chieftain; and, should he be as
successful in the camp as in the halls Of
Legislation in bringing about successful
termination of his plans, he may justly
receive the palm as the most wonderful
man of the age, and truly worthy repre-
sentative of Napoleon the Great.
No report Of any battle between the
belIigerents has been received, other than
that skirmish between the Austrians
and the opposing forces at the time the
former crossed the Ticino, a small river
dividing Austrian Italy from Piedmont
