THE SNOW.
~ KITTY CAaRoLk.

Oh, the snow the snow. the beautiful SNOW
See the ghassiy fakes a. they shimmcring 60.
Gliding, solemnly, slowly along.
Like the stately strains Of an ancient song.
Silently trcading their path Of light
Like ghosts in their robes Of spotless white.
O! the snow. the snow, the beautiful snow
See il in merriment gieefully 20!
Eidying. whirling. dancing along.
In their mrth mad waltz, 4 thoughtless thronx
fastening on In II ght hearted mir;h.
To clad in pure vcsture, the brown froaen earth
o. the snow. the snow. the beautiful SNOW
See it irearily gracefully GO
Circling wheeling, caqnettishly on,
To lie with It's comrades pale and wan.
So careless and joyous ght hearted and free,
The beautiful snow sesmsth ever to be.
O! the snow. the snow, the pitiful SHOW
See il gently and noiselessly go!
Sitting. creeping. to drift through the door,
or he desolate starving. and suffering poor
Covering wretc tchednsss. misery, woe,
Doth the charitable, ptiful, beautiful snow.

Terrible Accident at Fort Dodge, Iowa.
The Fort Dodge Sentinel of the 18th
gives the following acc ount Of terrible
accident at that place, aud by which three
men were buried alive:
"About niue o'clock yesterday A. NJ,
the uorkmen engaged on the Court
House were startled by the cry of hclp,
from well that was being sunk near by,
on the Court House grounds. On pro-
ceeding to the spot it was found that the
earth had caved in with such force as to
crush the curbing, and had buried two
men beneath
The first man that reached the spot
was silver haired man (stone cutter
named John Mortimer Nolan, who imme-
diatel y descended the windlass rope to-
render all assistance that might be in his
power. He was shortly followed by Mr..
II. Cramer, with like intention, when a
second crash closed the pieces of eurbins
a"ound Nolan's body, just leaving his
head and shoulders above, and allowing
but very narrow escape for Mr.. C.amcr,
who Immediately asccnded to the top.
AT that time they were all alive, and
their voices could be heard even at :he
top of the well.
Nolan prayed to have the bosri sawed
off that was pressing SO hard on his chest,
while those below begged them to desi>..
as the severing of that board would le,
the earth on them and cause certain
death
BY this time probably two hundred
men were on the ground, and the grs:-
est confu. ion prevailed Every one had
a suggestion to make, but none were act.
ed upon, until the voices from below had
ceased, and the gray head Of the old man,
which was visible from above, was meek
ly bowed in death"

As sister, her relation as daughter still

Who can fathom the depths of true sis

a Z. :. Attorney Killed by n Congress-
man for Sedncins his Wife!

The following account of the shooting
and killing OF Philips Barton Key, L. S.
District Attorney for the District OF Co
lumbia, by Daniel E. Sickles. one of the
members of Congress from n. Y. City, is
copied from telegraphic report of the hor-
rid affair as published in the La Porte Dali
ly Union of the LIST inst. The affair occur
red on the 9th ult., and produced an in
tense excitement:-- . .f
According to the report. Mr.. Sickles be-
ing convinced OF the truth Of certain scan
dalous rumors involving his wife. resolved
to redress his wrongs. At about two o.
clock this p. NJ, proceeding from his res
i,lence near the Presidents house to the
south east corner of Lafayette Square, in
the same ncighborhood. where Mr.. Key
was engaged in conversation with Mr. But
tcrworth, Of N. Y, he charged Mr.. Key
with having dishonored him and destroy
ell his domestic peace. and shot him with a
revolver. One of the balls entered the
left side of the body and passed through to
the corresponding point on the opposite
side, lodging under the skin. Another
shot took effect in-thc right thigh, near the
main artery, 'whprr Mr.. KeyfelL imploring
Mr.. S. not to kill him. The third shot
was in the right side, glancing from the
body, inilictins only a bruisc. The body
was taken into the National Club House
where jnry of inquest was held, who, af-
ter an examination into the circumst ances,
of some hours lengt h, returned verdict
merely stating that the death of Mr.. Key
was from the effect Of pistol shots as above
stateil--fired by Sickies. The premises Of
tho Club House were crowded with people
anxiously inquiring into al the circum
stances Of the event. After -Sickles hat
killed Key he repaired to the residence o
Attorney General Black, where he was ad
vised to deliver himself1into tho hands o.
the officers who subsequently conveyed hin
to iail-to which he was committed To-
furt her examinatiea Tomorrow. The fact.
which led to the tragedy will then proba
IDLY julicially transpire. The inquisitioi
of tho Coroner was merely with references
to the cause which produced death.

SOME asinine scribbler in the last Demo
crot, over the signature of "Alek." makes
some assertions in regard to the effects Of
the Republican policy upon the condition
of the slave, which would make any one
but modern pro-slavery Democrat blush
tohis eyes. We regard it as altogether
unnecessary now to attempt to refute the
illogical and silly arguments of the writer;
that has been done heretofore in our col
umns thousand times. He tries to re-
lieve his party of the oiium of being pro-
slavery party. but thousand facts OF re-
cent occurrence confront him at the Tires
hold to refute the assertion that the Dem
ocratic party do not desire to smother ami
choke out every free principle, both in
States and Territories. 1t is unnecessary
to recite these facts now. The people have
not forgotten them If ''Aleck" has.

The .sprisg election takes place on the
first Mond3 Of Apfil ensuing Is it not
getting tin for our Republican friends in
the Observation-Disclosures Of the county to be
preparing for the occasion? The new
Township law placing all the business in
the hands, of asihgie person, tenders il
highly important that the most compe-'
tent man in each Township should be Sc
lected toTfil the post 1T is an important
Office, and if the people take care to select
the best man in every Township to fill ii.
we are inclined to think that the new law
will become more popular than the old one.
If our friends in any of the townships wish
their call for a meeting to nominate candi-
dates Published in the Republican, all they
have to do.is to send us the notice and it
shall appear. would also take pleas
urc in publishing the proceedings of any or
all the Township Conventions. provided
they arc made ont and forwarded to u.s.
When shall we meet in Centre? We can
have the use Of the Court room this year,
we guess. o,
Before closing. and in this connection, it
may not be improper to remind our friends
inevery township ofthc great importance, in
a political point, of view, not only ofmain-
tanning their organization but of taking
immediate steps to render it still more per-
feet and effective 1t is unnecessary, we
presume. to specify what is necessary to be
done; this will suggest itself to every ac-
tive and true Republican. More anon.
