COllaX.

WASHINGTON, May 10, 1860
Editors Press and TrtLune:
GENTLEMEN Il have the pleasure of
informing you that the Pixies Peak mail
appropriation bill has just passed the
Senate unanimously. The bill also con-
tains an appropriation of $4,000 for
services on such of the new post routes
as are authorized by the act of 1858, bat
which have not been let for lack of APP
preparations as the Postmaster General
may deem advisable
This bill therefore having passed the
House month ago, will become law as
soon as it is signed by the President
The Postmaster General will thereupon
establish mail service at once to Denver
City; not, however, starting at St. Jos.
eph, as you suggested some time since
in your paper, but from Julesburg, the
nearest point on the St. Joseph and Cal
ifornia mail route to the Pixies Peak re-
gion.
.Respectfully yours
SCHUYLER CoLFAx.

Fever and Ague,

from which mankind suffer over a large part Of
the globe, is the consequence of diseased action
in the system, induced by the poisonous miasm
of vegetable decay. This eXhalation Is evolved
by the action of solar heat on wet soil, and rises
with the watery vapor from 1t. While the sun is
below the horizon this vapor fingers near tho
earths surface, and the virus is taken with It
through the lungs into the blood. There it acts
as an irritating poison on the internal viscera
and excreting organs of the body. The liver be-
comes torpid and fails to secrcte not only this
virus, but also the bile from the blood. Both
the virus and the bile accumulate in the circula-
ton, and produce violent constitutional disorder.
The spleen, the kidneys, and the stomach sym.
pathize with the liver, and become disordered
also. Finally, the instinct of our organism, as
if in an attempt to eXpel the noxious infusion,
concentrates the whole blood of the body in the
internal excretories to force them to cast 1t out
The blood leaves the surface, and rushes to the
central organs with congestive violence. This is
the CHILL. But in this effort it fails. Then the
FEVER follows, in which the blood leaves the
central organs and rushes to the surface, as if
in another effort to expel the irritating poison
through the other great excretory the skin. In
this also it fails, and the system abandons the at
tempt exhausted, and waits for the recovery. Of
strength to repeat the hopeless effort another day.
These are the fits or paroxysms of FEVER AND
AGUE. Such constitutional disorder will of
course undermine the health if it is not removed.

Burned at the Stake.

A correspondent of the N. Y Tribune,
under date of April 25th, gives the fol-
lowing account of most horrible af-
fair which took place in Buchanan,
Texas:
"A young man, whose name and res
idence shall suppress for fear of bar
rowing the feelings of fond mother and
sisters. to whom ignorance is bliss, came
into this country as colporteur he
had a valuable stock of books, maps, &C.,
consisting mainly of Bibles and religious
works, the standards of the Christian
world, histories, (Prescott's and others,
school books and aliases, and unfortunate
ly for him, a few copies of the 'Impend-
ing Crisis and some tracts favoring the
cause of freedom.
They were accidentally seen by some
intense pro- Slaveryte, who raised the
hue and cry against the id Yam
kee Abolition Book Peddler.' A mob
soon had him in their clutches, and he
was at once numerically fogged, and
robbed of his wagon and contents. Here
perhaps, the affair would have ended
but just at this juncture negro man was
brought upon the ground, purporting to
have been caught running away from
his master with forged pass in his peck
ct he, the negro, was dashed to tree,
and after a most barbarous beating he
was told to say who had given him the
pass the halfdead and terrified negro,
glad of chance to save himself. and
we'll knowing who his captors wished
him to accuse, pointed out the colporteur,
adding also, in reply to artful questions,
that he had received knife from the
peddler, with the advice TO take it and
cut his way back to freedom, and to burn
his masters house over his head in re-
venge for the barbarous treatment he had
received. Now of all this there was nc
proof but the word Of the negro, who
would have told any thing to procure his
release and yet it was enough for the
Infatuated mob, now numbering about
$50 owners Of slaves, their overseers and
sons.
After short consultation the poor
man was delivered into the hands of six
of the most furious of the crowd. These
rolled the wagon under a tree, covered
it over with dry faggots, and over the
whole of it poured barrel of tar hav,
ing first stripped their victim and i'm
mersed him in the same, they passed a
rope around his neck and over limb.
Then raising him so that his toes barely
touched the top of the combustible pile,
the negro was made to apply the flaming
torch, and thus the fearful tragedy closed
in the flames of the hellishly concocted
funeral pile, and the shrieks of the ago
nized victim.'
