SINGULAR DEATH.-On the evening of the
30th ult., Andrew Whalen, a blacksmith,
was found dead in his house at Eagleville, in
this county. A correspondent of the La
Porte Messenger says:
"He lay with his head wedged in between
the corner of the bottom stair and the wall,
in such position as to have been inextrica-
ble to himself, his nose pressed in by the
edge of the board, so as to have prevented
his breathing through that organ. He was
quite dead when found. This occurred late
in the afternoon of the 30th ult., and he must
have been in that position since early In the
morning, when he was last seen going into
the room. lie had taken off his boots, prob.
ably feeling unwell, and must have fallen in
a fit. There was no evidence of his having
struggled much, and, probably he was not
conscious after his fall. 1t required the
strength of two men to extricate his head
from that position. He was an honest, inof-
fensiye, Industrious, though somewhat dissi
pated man and very ingenious workman.
think he was from Wisconsin, where he
formerly carried on an extensive plow facto,
ry; and where, if | mistake not, he has tw,
brothers now residing"

An ENVOY ExTRAoRDINARY-SPEcU cU1ArtoYs
A correspondent of the Mesilla (Arizona)
Times writing from Ell Paso, Texas, under
date of Nov. Goth, says:
1--WE have had celebrity among us-not
a veritable Prince of Wales. to tickle the
monarchical fancies Of O Northern Goldfish
aristocracy, but an Envoy Extraordinary
from the Constitutional Government of Juar-
Is, at Vera Cruz, to the Governor of Chihua

overland via San Antonio He is travelling
incog. as far as we know, for we have not as
certalned his name, nor has the object of his
mission become public.
Conjecture, ever fertile in invention, as
sures us that his coming is of momentous i'm
portance-that it portends crisis that it is
the intention of the Juares Government to
sound the several Eastern and Western States
of Mexico, as it regards the propriety of
forming an alliance, offensive and defensive.

grand federative league, the nucleus ofwhich.

banner. From this, the radiance of liberty.
law and order are to spread, regenerating
the rich table lands and valleys of Mexico,
and making paradise, now withered and
desolated by civil war, again blossom in fresh
ness and beauty.
If the initiatory step is taken, and the great
advantages of an alliance and a uni1n with
US are properly disseminated and understood
among the Mexican States of the Sierra Ma
DIRE, and the North including Sonora, there
will be no difficulty in accomplishing so great
and important an object-an object Of hu-
manity, which while it extends liberty guard
ed by law, regenerates and pacifcates the
Spanish American race"

A st. Louis correspondent says :

It IS telegraphed that there las been thir-
ty-seven applications to Mr.. Lincoln, already
for the Postofice at Richmond, Va. The
story is probably fabrication, but be it so
or not there is no danger of the country suf-
fering for the lack of parties willing to hold
the Southern offices. 1t is fact, that 1 am
myself cognizant of, that pro-slavery post
masters in the State of Missouri, are noo
suppliaats for the favor Of continuance III
office. The postmaster at Lexington. Mo,
one of the strongest pro-savery districts in
the State, solicits Republicans OF st. Louis to
assist him to keep his place The same thing
has happened at st. Joseph, at Kansas City,
and elsewhere. 1t is rather rich, but it is
probable that the parties will have to suffer

who were in Lieut.. Mulan's expedition, found
good specimens Of gold on the head waters of
the Columbia, as also on the tributaries of
the Missouri, on their passage through the
country this year. l have recently convers-
ed with DR.. Atkinson, formerly of the Dalles
just in from Pixies Peak, with small train
lie comes prepared to prospect for gold ex-
tepsively, particularly on the Big Blackfoot
river, where a soldier named Webb belong
ing to Lieut. Mullan's escort, is said to have
found a fine specimen of gold, during the past
summer. The opening of the Military Road
and the navigability of the Missouri river as
far as Fort Benton, must necessarily work a
revolution in this central region.
