Mr. Sherman has introduced a measure Of
importance into the House which we hope will
succeed 1t is substitute bill providing that
the members of Congress shall receive as mile
age 20 cents per mile in lieu of the 40 cents
now allowed, and that the distance shall be
computed geographically instead of construc-
lively. In other words an "air line" route is to
be substituted for the "roind-a-bout" couse by
which mileage is now calculated The passage
of this bill will save the government 100000
per annum.
In the Senate the Mexican treaty has been
discussed in executive session, but no result has
been reached. 1t is reported, we trust correct
ly, that it will not be ratified by the Senate.
Mr. Seward delivered his promised speech on
Wednesday. 1t will be looked for with intense
interest. We shall endeavor to lay it before
our readers at the earliest opportunity.

REFUSES TO BE Concentrations CAIN
having failed to be re-appointed postmaster at
Rutland, some of the more charitable of his
neighbors and friends ascribed his want of sue
cess to the operation of the democratic doctrine
of "rotation in Office" hoping by so doing to
let the detunct official down easy. Among the
papers which took this view of the case is the
Bradford Telegraph. But Mr.. Cain resolutely
disdains all such coincidence. He is evidently
determined upon being victim, martyr to his
principles. See how he snubs the telegraph in
the last number of his Courier:
"The truth is, Mr.. Telegraph, land as you
seem benighted, you ought to be enlightened, J
we had endorsements to President Buchanan,
for reappontment, in numbers, and of such a
character, from the Democracy of this town.
county and State, that no Administration hav-
ing Democratic blood in It's reins, could repudi-
ate.
ave announced ourselves in favor of Steph-
en- a. Douglas for the Presidency This I'M
pardonable crime, in the eyes of the man who
owes his nomination and election TO that same
Douglas, was the cause-and the only cause
for our being superseded as Postmaster at Ru,-
land. We know 1.-THE Democracy know it
and the Bradford Telegraph knows it and as
we have no complaints to make, we hope the
Telegraph, or any other of "Old Buck worst
enemies, will say nothing more about "rotation, y
in connection with our case"

SPrRITUALIsM.-A curious case of spiritual
manifestations has lately transpired in Wood
ford. A man full of spirits and spiritualism
was put into trance, Che being trance medi-
UNI and they asked him to call up the spirit of
his departed brother, which was at once done.
They conversed with the spirit, and the spirit
said that he wanted to drink with Freem, Ia
man of color who lives near by So they sent
for Freem, and he came to the house and asked
what was wanting? The medium said, "my
brother wants to drink with YOU" "Very well,
father, go down cellar and get the bottle"
Now the medium took hold of the bottle and
handed it to Freem; he pored out mild drink
and passed the bottle to the medium, and he
poured large tumbler full. There there y
exclaimed the mother, "that is my son, for that
is just the size drink he used to take when be
was alive" Freem passed off by politely say
ing that 'any time you wish to have me drink
with your son, will do so with the greatest
pleasure"

EVERYBODY SHOULD READ Ir.-It will be seen, on
reference to an advertisement elsewhere, that the
NEW YORK WEEKLY-that most readable of all
story and sketch papers--has commenced the publ
cation OF another and charming serial from the
pen OF Miss Lucy A. RANDALL daughter of S. S.
Randall Esq, the well-known City Superintendent
Of Public Schools in New York. The story in ques-
ton entitled Amy Rayner; or, The Tangled Path
and Judging from Miss Randars previous contribu-
tons to the columns Of the NEW YORK WEEKLY
under the nom de plume of "Heen Forest Grnves we
are satisfied that II will be of the most chastely
written, as well as one of the most deepv-nteresting
dramatic romances ever given to the world. The
NEW YORK WEEKLY now stands nj the yerv head
of the journals Of its class.

ton flowing towards this state as indicated by the

al, mineral and manufacturing resources unsurpassed,
and nothing but an adequate population requisite
to deyeope them in order to the highest degree
of prosperity.
y FAMILY REMEDY.-No family should be without
some eicacous remedy for the cure of affections so
universally prevalent as coughs, and colds some
remedy, too which can be relied upon safe sure,

combines this desidera um.

MINNESOTA School TEACHERS MAY DRINK
LAGEI.-In the Minnesota House, the other
day, the School Bill came up for a second read
ing. Itproyided, among other regulations, that
in the examination of teachers, no person "who
uses intoxicating or malt liquors as beverage
shall be deemed of good moral character" Mr.
Sweet, who evidently has taste for the bever-
ages, moved to strike out cor malt" He hoped
the House would come to direct vote upon
the amendment. He did not believe that the
use Of lager-beer should disqualify person for
teaching a a common school, or that it should
be deemed to destroy his moral character Mr.
Secombe thought teachers could do very well
without their 'peer," and moved to lay the
amendment on the table. The motion failed
SO nays to 26 yeas--so that Minnesota teachers
may hereafter take their lager.

Church in st. Adams is to be built by Mr. Joel

by a neat porch on Fairfield street The design
of the church as made by ]. Coleman Hart,
Esq, Architect, is said to be rare combination
of the useful and beautiful and, when complet-
ed, the new st. Lukes Church will undoubted-
ly be great ornament the village, and great
convenience to large and growing parish. The
new church we understand, is to be completed,

THE Ncto Bedford (Mass.) Standard tells the
following story: Miss Louisa Jones, an intel
ligent and accomplished young lady of Fairha-
ven twenty-one years of age, has been very ill
for the last four months, confined to her bed,
and for the last two months had lost the use of
her lower limbs, so that she could be moved
only with great difficulty. She appeared to be
failing rapidly, and the medical attendants de-
clared they could do nothing more for her. On
the Sth inst some friend who was in to see her
mentioned that the Rev. Joseph X. Bellows Of
New-York, Second Advent preacher, was in
town, holding a,series of meetings. She mme-
dately expressed desire to see him, and the
belief that should he pray for her, she should
recover. The clergyman accordingly visited
her that evening. and Miss Jones describes her
sensations during the prayer as similar to those
of person receiving a galvanc shock. That
night she arose and dressed herself without as
sistance, and on the following Sabbath she at
tended church. She is now enjoying the best
of health, and relishes the heartiest food. The
young lady belongs to the same religious per-
suasion with the preacher, which is an indication
of her system being very susceptible to the in
huencc of imagination.
