The Homestead Bill.

The passage of the Homestead bill in the
House on Monday, by vote Of one hundred
and fourteen to sixty sis. was quite surprise,
neither party expecting that it was TO come
up SO early, or to pass By SO large MAORI
ay. The only Northern man who voted
against itswas MIR. Montgomery, and the
only Southern man who voted for it was Mr..
Craige, of Missouri. The bill provides that
any person who 10 the head of family, or is
twenty -one years or more of age, may enter
one.9uarter section OF land, subject TO pre-
enption, and at the expiration of five
years, il then citizen, shall be entitled to
patent on payment of ten dollars.
The Homestead bill was specially assigned for
consideration in the Senate on Tuesday. The
prestige of its success in the House on Mon
day will influence the action ct the Senate to
such an extent that, in the opinion OF many
friends of the bill, ifa vote was forced the bill
would pass.

VINE merchant, whose daughter few years
mace married his coachman, John Dean, ma
turaily revives little chat in reference to
tnat romantic affair. The impression seems

soon after ING marriage, was appointed to q

in Williamsburg, is perfectly irreproachable
10 his habits and associations, minds his own
business, and is faithful and attectionate
husband. He avoids notoriety of every sort,
and pursuss the way OF an upright, sterling

MIR. HYATT in Prison.

Mr.. Hyatt was Monday evening commit

ty-four to ten. He was put in large room
in the southeast corner of the Jail, formerly
occupied by Major French, the notorious
government defaulter. 1t has been furnish
ed with furniture by his friends, and that he
will suffer only from a want of exercise. He
is quite poor in health. He will probably
apply for writ of habeas corpus, will bring
the case before the Supreme Court. If the
Court sustains the Senate, Hyatt cannot es-
case imprisonment otherwise than by purg-
ing himself by testifying, unless the Senate
back down and release him.

'GuNPowpER PLoI'--ATTEMPT TO DESTROY
A TowN.-The inhabitants of Napoleon, Ark,
have been considerably excited during the
past few days by the discovery of plot to
destroy that town by means Of turning upon
it the current of the Arkansas river; Ma
poleoH is situated on a narrow strip of land
At the junction OF the Mississippi and Arkan-
sas rivera, and for several miles back the
two rivers are only separated by strip OF
ground about tour hundred yards in width.
4 week or two since train OF powder was
laid across this narrow strip, and Monday
night the match was appIisd, A terrific
explosion ensued, and the earth was torn ap
to an extent which allowed the water from
the Arkansas river to find it's way across
into the Mississippi. Already has q strong
current formed in the breach, which is hour
~ widening and deepening, and from pres
apt indications at no distant period the town
w;i, be swept away, A planter in the Vi
entity whose interest you'd be greatly en-,
hanced by the change in the current OF the
Arkansas river, is suspected of having per.
petrated the deed, but nothing positive Is
known,-Memphis Argus.

rs The will of John G. Boxer, the faith

u.s. The will of John G. Boxer, the faith
er-in-law of John Dean, the coachman, who
eloped with "his own Mary Ann" about
three years ago, was offered for probate in
the Surrogate's Court OF New York, on last
Monday. The testator leaves all his proper
ty, consisting of considerable amount of
real and personal estate to his wife, to be di-
yided after her death into four parts, which
are to be distributed among four of his chill
dren. One clause cuts "Mary Ann off how
ever, from the share she was to have when
the testament was framed-the deceased even
mentioning his desire to have her name
entirely obi;terated from his will. The
citation is retHrnsble on the 2Sth of next
month.

SPOT ON THE SUN.-A solar spot, of rare
interest from its Oh anges, passed over the
suns disc between the 23d of February and
the 18th of March. On the 18th of February
it was nearly round with penumbra like
the brush OF the comets tail. On the LIST
and End of March it was spiral penumbra
of more than a whirl and and a half, with
the black spot as the head. Afterwards
penumbral oval, returning into itself, with
one or two dark spots.

walked more than mile barefooted, over
snow, frozed ground and ice, to the T. and

hole through the ice and plunged in. She
was tracked from the dwelling to the spot,
and the shawl floating in the hole indicated

when the prisoner pitched into him. A gen

another officer arrived on the scene of com

their satisfaction, ana was released. Guess
he'll look out for the stars next time he sees

The Observation-Disclosures of
the Session.

Our Richmond papers of yesterday inform
US that both houses Of the Legislature have
passed resolutions extending the session to
the end of the Constitutional term, April
I'd. The necessity which existed for the
further proiongation, was impressed upon
the minds Of the members of both houses,
by very considerable and cogent message
from Governor Letcher; from which it could
not fall to be seen that even with the addi-
tional number Of days which have been 70
ted to purposes of legislation, the represen-
tstiyes of the people will be kept busly en-
p Logged during the term in disposing of mat
ters of grave public concern.
