CORPoREAL PUNISHMENT IN RUSsIA.-There is one
peculiar characteristic in Russian manners, which
foreigners most energeticaly decy it is the habit of
not considering corporeal punishment more infa-
NOUS than any other. In fact in the eyes of the Rus
sian people, corporeal punishment is felt less than
verbal insult; penitentary confinement is regarded
as infinitely more humiating than fogging, espe-
caly when the latter penalty is administered in pr
vate. At the bottom Of this notion there is really
religious idea; faithful believer will not admit that
the punishment of castgation, which was inflicted
upon the Saviour of mankind, can attach to any man
badge of infamy. In his belief verbal insult at
tacks mans immortal spirit, while the blow is felt
only by the least noble part of his body.
CHASED BY WoLvEs.-0n Saturday, the 11th inst,
while party, consisting OF Mr. John Srayer, Jr, and
Henry Laub, were on a pscatorial expedition, for
trout near the headwaters Of Big Rum in Andersons
Gap of the Shade Mountain about five miles west OF
MeAlisterville, they startled in the midst of
their sport by the bowling of wolves. From the
noise the yarmints made, the amateur disciples Of
Isaac Walton concluded that the pack comprised four
in number. Being convinced of their danger, they
cut aud rnn, perhaps, with speed that would have
reflected honor 2:40 nag on plank road, for the
nearest settlement. After an exciting chase for q
mile and half. the open country gained, and the
wolves abandoned the pursuit. AT Ole time the fore
most wolf was not than fifty yards in the irey

The hunters on the Wisconsin side are
telling prodigous stories. Deer, Elk, Beaver,

are also becoming numerous in this vicinity,

not kill. It seems too bud to interfere with
them, but tho interest Of the community de.
mands it, they should be prevented from
destroying and driving off the game in the
wholesale manner that they do. The neigh.

.GooDHuE CouNrY 0RDERs--We observe
that County orders are rising ID the public
estimation. sales were made duling the past
week for seventy-flve cents cash. The An
coming taxes should wipe out every vestige
Of the county Indebtedness, and leave .
large surplus Of money in the treasury
There is no good reason why orders should
not be worth at lest ninety five cents on the
dollar. But they are operated with on the
bull and bear principle, as the spectators
may wish to purchase or to sell, and thus
annually deprecated from ninety down to
fifty per cent. Those to whom they were
issued have thus TO submit to an immense
shave, because in mos: cases they are unable
to hold them until the next tax roll is in
the hands ofthe collector ''.,''sz7T'
Seeing that thisis the case, and that the
county is amply able to pay its debts, would
it not be we'll to have the orders endorsed
! by some one ofour bankers, who might give
security aud receive proportion of orders,
as in the case Of the St. Paul city scrip at
present. The orders are now engraved and
present the appearance Of bank notes. The
endorsement Of them would keep up the
price the year round, and be a great saving
to the county for those who perform its SER
vice always take the price of orders into
lc0nS liberation. r., ~ q ;rrr thai, o.n<..>s.
Will~not some Of our enterpising bankers,

dorsed orders would answered. the purposes

THE LYNCHJNG OF REINHART.

just as we 60 to press, there comes to us
the appalling intelligence that Rhinhart,
supposed to be the murderer of Bodell, and
who has been confined in Jail at Lexington
the last month, has been hung-mercilessly
strung up, and ,:asent to his account, with
all his imperfectioni his head"
Our authority is the most reliable, being
that of some Of our citizens who were at
Lexington during a portion Of the bloody
act. II s.
The particulars are about as follows:
About noon on Monday, the 9th inst,
a band Of some thirty or forty men marched
into the town Of Lexington, determination
in their looks, pistols, kives and guns, in
Their hands.
AS they came in from the East, it is sup.
posed that they were from the Ea tern par,
|of LIE Seur county, and from Rice, which is
neighboring.
Marched to the Jail they proceeded te
force it open, but so firmly and strongly
built was it, that they with great difficult,
succeeded. 1t was not till afler the lapse
Of about two hours thatthey we're success
full. 5s- "
The prisoner, who had been not cnl,
handcuffed, but also chained to the floor, fol
fear lest he might escape, burst asunder hi!
chains, and in his desperation tore the hand
cuffs from bis wrists-drawing them witt
mains strength over his hands, completed,
tearing off the flesh. With his lacerated
but freed hand selling the leg Of the stove
ne defended himself with the strength anc
madness Of an Infatuated tiger.
HIS strength soon failed him, and tho
roughly exhausted he e.;"tad: thus scc'. r"
coming an easy prey to his cold-b!oodee
nau'Wevers.
Taking him about half mile distant, and
tastning rope about his neck, they strung
him up over the limb ola tree. Once they
let him down, for the purpose of receiving
a confession from him, il he had any t.
make, but protesting his innocence, they
hoisted him up, and in short time Rhin.
hart was launched into Eternity.
He was buried near by, ruthlessly hur.
ried into the earth, without prayer for his
soul. OF coffin in which to put his corpse
These exemplary citizens Of Rice and LIZ
Seur then left.
The reason alleged for this unprecedented
and unparalleled outrage, in our State, was
that it was feared that Rhinhart might eff.
feet his escape, having already once or
twice before broke his chains and fed, but
was recaptured; so it was determined that
he should not again escape except into ",he
jaws Of DEATH" and hence their acts.
On Tuesday, the citizens Of Lexington,
(''unto whom be all honor and glory" took
no part in this dastardly and cold FLOODED
n,urder,) disintered the body of Rhinhart
and decently and in christian like, man
ner buried it.

A company Of seventeen men, in the en.

arrived in Nebraska city, N. T., ., few DAYS

met with great suffering on the plains.
Two Of the men were nearly frozen, then

less frozen. ...
The snow about one hundred miles GU,
was very deep, and badly drifted. Tn
company were obliged to leave their wag

Nebraska city, where their mules gave out
swamped in the snow.
They bring no SPECIAL news, further thar
bad roads, high prices Of provisions, and
general confirmation of the gold d,scoverie
on the Platte. Flour is selling along tn
road at nearly every station at from $25 t,
$50 per sack of 100 pounds and all othe
provisions at proportionate rates, and verl
scarce at these figures. Our informant think
that provisions must be very scarce at tn
mines.
This company fell in with Mr.. Fuller

ing some IN the mines, and had made from
