EXTREMELY SENsITWE.-Four men were
hanged in Baltimore on the 18th inst.
All Of these culprits committed unques-
tiouable, cold-blooded Misunderstanding
their victims no time to prepare for the
present or the future. They addressed a
note to the Sheriff of Baltimore county,
which Is as follows. Ii exhibits a senti-
mentality which is. perhaps, in harmony
with the liberation Of crime in Baltimore.
The Sheriff, it was said would grant their
request, smitten, perhaps, by sympathy
for the unfortunate wretches:

SOCIETY IN WAsHINGroN-The Washing
ton correspondent of the New York Daiiy
News gives the following deplorable pic
ture of Social affairs in the Federal cant
tai:
| fear the incidents preceding this truly
melancholy tragedy are but an illustration
OF the demoralized condition of fashion,
able society here. 1t is not an uncommon
thing for men and women holding the
very highest positions TO be the subject of
scandal as well founded as that of Mrs.
Sickles and Key. Among the names thus
used are those of foreign ministers of the
highest class, the wives of Senators and
Representatives, and others equally dis
tingulshed of both sexes. 1t may be well
SAID that if the elite at the Federal Capital
are thus shameless in their RIGHTEOUSNESS,
and so regardless of the common decencies
of even outward morality, il is well for the
country that the basis of society is less
cultivated and more humble.

The announced declination of Hon. A.

of the other. the word OF Mr. stephens,

About the Sth inst. the work Of taking
10 pieces the Arson Northup and prepar-
ing the frame of the new boat, was COM

~, the whole of the portable frame of the
boat, the boiler, engines. machinery and
tools. amounting to more than fifty tons
freight, 0sides stores and baggage of the
men. and hay for the teams. Is packed
upon sleighs. and thirty teams are trudg-
ing away with their load over the prairIes
and through the pinerieS towards the
Red River of the North. The boiler and
the heavy machinery must be hauled on
runners a distance of one hundred and
sixty-five miles.
The new portions of the boat will be Ia
ken from Swan River. 100 miles The
boat, which Is to- bear the appropriate
name of the Pioneer is to be 100 feet
long. ~ feet beam, with a depth of four
feet in the hold. and Is calculated to carry
seyenty-iive to one hundred tons of freight
The train is accompanied by about forty
teamsters and mechanics, who will com.
| mcnce work a. soon a, they reach the
Red River, and the boat will probably be
in running order by the first of MAY. The
road is good as far as Otter Tail City. and
teams have been through to Red River
