averted, 1.or its political condition improved,
until there is radical change in the character
Of Congress. Until the country weed out
from that body the numerous vagabonds who
are but little better than worthless vagrants
at home, and peculators and spoilsmen at
Washington. ..
The Importance of restoring respectability
to Congress appears tohave awakened the at
tention of the country. In fact, President
Buchanan called public attention to this mat
ter last winter He remarked in an address,
"The farmer stays at home, follows his plow,
minds his own business, and we see very little
of him in public life. All other interests press
forward-his alone languishes."
Yes, and it will languish, and daily grow
more and more sickly, until the farmer ceases
to be SLAVE, and to follow at the foot of de-
spotic charlatanism. Let the farmer but re-
member what Jefferson taught the men of his
day-not to yield his peculiar rights and in
tcrests into the keeping of any living man,
but from his own "guild' to select his own
representative and if ever honesty restores
honor to Congress, it must come in from that
source, or none. MINNEsoTUs

From Fort Kearney..An Immense Snow
Storm--Great Suffering on the Plains

Sso1".eHEeAt SuHeF1u8 on the Fla1nSs
ST. JOSEPH, May 5.
We learn from the Nebraska City Neaes,
that gentleman arrived in that place on Fri
day last, direct from Fort Kearney. He
stated that one of the severest snow storms,
ever experienced in that locality had recently
fallen. The snow on average was three feet
deep! There was great suffering among the
Pixies Peak and other emigrants, who had
been caught out III the storm, and they could
neither help themselves nor make any pro-
gress.
At the Fort, corn was selling at the unrea-
sonable and extraordinary price of 400 per
bushel or 500 per barrel!
We had expected to hear of great suffer
inc and privations on the Plains among emf
grants, but did not expect to have to record
so terrible snow storm, so near by, when
the mercury in the thermometer was almost
up to the boiling point as it was yesterday.
Emigrants started altogether too early and
paid too little heed to providing for the incem-
ency Of the weather, and the great and sudden
change in the mountains, and ON the plains.
The suffering and privations Of those already
gone should serve as beacon and warning
to those who are soon to follow.
