The British Ministry were defeated
on the Reform Bill by the decisive
vote of $50 to POI. On a motion for
second reading, previous to the vote,
there was an exciting debate, in which
Messrs. Peel. Roebuck, and others,
spoke in opposition to- the bill, and
D'Israeli wound up with an elaborate
effort in defence of the Government
The house immediately adjourned to
the 9TH inst.
Various speculations were afoat in
regard to the course of the Ministers.
Their resignation was generally antic-
ipated. Lord Derby stated in the
House Of Lords that the Cabinet was
considering what course to adopt
He had had an interview with the
Queen, he said, but nothing definite
had been resolved upon. They would
announce their determination on the
18th.
The second Irish sedition trial at
Trale, resulted in the conviction of
Daniel Sullivan, who was sentenced to
ten years penal servitude.
Serious riots occurred at Galway on
the occasion of lecture by Signor
Gavazzi. The lecturer was driven
away by a mob Of excited Catholics
and several Protestant cIerrynen We're
roughly handled.
Piedmont was not to be admitted III
to the Congress as one Of the great
powers, Austria and Russia having for.
mally protested against her admission
OH any other terms than those allowed
to tie Italian States.
The preliminary conditions on which
Austria insists, with regard to this
Congress, render it even doubtful
whether>the meeting will be feasible
One Of the conditions being that Pied
mont shall disarm, which the latter
power positively refuses to do.
Count Cavour had returned to Turin
having secured his object with Napo
leon. He is believed to be bent OF
war.
Our city journals are specializing
freely on the Ministerial crisis. The
Times intimates that the Ministers ar<
resolved to stand on their ground til
placed in the minority, on the direc
question of confidence, and then appca
to the people. In other words, they
will not resign without dissolution.
Several journals concur in stating
that the Queen has sent for Marquis
Lansdowne, to advise with her the
course to be pursued.

Leayenworth. April 18th.

The first overland express consisting
of two coaches, left this morning for
Denver City. The time through will
occupy twelve days until the line is in
thorough working order, when it will
be reduced to eight. The companies
carry the mail on the authority Of the
Post Office.
The departure was witnessed by a
large concourse of people. The enter
prise is considered the greatest of the
day, and will put US in direct and reg
nlar communication with the mineral
region. Two coaches depart daily
hereafter. There was some small re-
ceipts of dust here. Gov. Medary
leaves to-day for Ohio.

CHIEF JUSTICE WH1roS DEAD!-
'Carelessly we neglected last week to
announce the demise Of our distinguish
cd Chief justice Of the Supreme Court.
He mas been resident. Of GAINESVILLE
for twenty years, and held the position
of Chief Justice since the creation of
that Court. His virtues, integrity and
ability have made his name promi-
nent one throughout the Union, and
the loss of his talents is a national ca
la,nity. The procession at his funeral
was the largest ever witnessed in the
State.
The Madison Journal of tho 10th,
announces that the Governor has ap-
pointed Hon. L. S. Dixon, Of Portage
City, Chief Justice in place of Hon. E.
V. Wilton, deceased. Mr.. Dixon is
now on the bench of the ninth circuit,
and those acquainted with the man and
the manner in which he has performed
his duties there, are warm in his praise.
The Journal says ole will no doubt
discharge the duties Of his high posi-,
ton which the Governor has assigned
him, with credit to himself, the Court,
and the State"

FRIEND JACK Here | am in this
noted Border town-the fastest town
it was ever my fortune to be in. You
can form no idea Of the magnitude of
the business of this place. There are
hundreds Of stores Of every kind, and
saloons without number. From four to
six steamboats, arrive at our leyee dali
ly-fIom Fort Randall and other points
down, and from St. Louis up the river,
and occasionally a boat from Cincin-
natl and other points on the Ohio Riv-
er. Add to this our regular packets to
leaFenWorth, Sioux City, Palermo and
Elwood, and you may conceive some
thing ofour steamboat business. Then
we have 4 direct railroad connection
with Chicago and the East via our St.
Joseph Hannibal, Quincy and Chicago
r. Roads. By these boats and Rail
roads, strangers thus early in the sea-
son are pouring into our city at the
rate Of to 500 per day, mostly bound
for Pixies Peak. Our streets arc filed
with cmigrauts, on the move Or camp
ed.
We are now receiving conflicting
accounts from the mines. The emf
grants having fairly started-the Mis-
souri, river papers deem 1t policy to
crawfsh a little now, and hence pub
lish unfayorable as well as favorable
news. Their own safety may depend
upon this, for be assured that if the
enigrants find that they have been
wiifuliy humbugged by these Journal
lists, rctribution will be theirs
There may be piles Of gold in the
mountains, but it is now "ccrtain sure"
that the Cherry Greek and other sur
face diggings will not average one dol
lar per day to the man, and the entire
prospect now depends upon the hope
that gold will be found in the noun
tains in sufficient quantities to pay. 1t
has not yet been found.
Ny advice to Everybody is to remain
at home for few weeks yet. Grass
has not started in this vicinity-and
there is any amount ofsufering among
those now upon the plains. a few
weeks more will explode this Pixies
Peak excitement or prove it what it
has been SO highly colored to be. BY
holding on, the would-be-emigrant has
everything to gain, and most certainly
nothing to lose. III go to the mines,
[ shall not start before the 1st of June
or July. Let others do the prospect
ing. prefer to pan out.

IMPROVEMENT IN THE IRON TRADE
OF PESSsYLvANIA.-M Greely, of
the New York Tribune, recently on
a visit to Pennsylvania, gives the fol-
lowing encouraging account:
We look through considerable sec
ton of Eastern Pennsylvania, and were
gratifed to find it's business recovering
from the long nightmare Of paralysis
following the revulsion of 1857. Every
where, furnaces long out Of blast are
being reftted and blown in, iron, long
piled up to await purchaser, is NOV
ing off to assured markets; coal and ores
are increased demand, giving ready
employment to labor, and the prospect
for busy season is excellent. We
shall be disappointed if Pennsylvania
does not mine and sell twenty per cent.
more coal in 1859, than in any former
wear

Giddiness, Headache. &c.

These pains and dsagreeable feelings are
generally symptoms of some other complaint:
such as dyspepsia, apoplexy, and various other,
all of which are caused by corrupt noxious mat
ter, clogging the various circulaton.; hence
stream rush of blood to the head. and bv the
excitement great pressure on the brain. cid
diness, headache loss Of memory, dimness Of
sight, and various other complaints are the re-
suit. Thus it viii be seen that all the above
painful and distressing maladies owe their ori
gin to the blood. Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills
acknowledged to be the only medicine that
viii thoroughly purify the blood. They enter
the blood, and follow the stream of life on its
journey through the system. They root out all
foulness and impurity, and drive out every ur-
healthy obstruction. They should be taken ev
cry night in sufficient quantities to operate
brishy, by commencing with two pills on going
TO bed, three the next night, four the next: If
the symptoms are not removed, commence again
with two pills and go up again as before Con-
tinue in like manner until the blood is thor
oughly purified and all pain and distress is en-
tirely removed.
Obtain one Of our FREE ALMANACs, and
read the history of DR.. Morse's father, and hew
