NEW HAVEN LAWYER DRIVER OUT OF SOUTH
CAROLINA
One of those incidents which impress North
ern people with the value OF the Union, and
teach them to respect their chivalric brethren
al the other end OF the Union, occurred last
Friday, at place in North Carolina, OF some
500 inhabitants, called Wilson.
Joseph Sheldon, Esq. gentleman educated
at Yale College, and OF respectable prominence
at our bar, started on an extended collection
tour through the Southern and Western States,
as is the practice OF his firm, every year; ne
proceeded in safety, (though not without oeiiis
amused with the occasional exhibitions OF tle
peculilrities of Southern character untit lie
arrived at this town Of Wilson. AT TINS place
he had for his business the adjustment OF some
financial transactions ;of the carriage making
firm of G. & D. Cook & Co, OF this city, who
had in their confidence in Southern honor,
trusted the deniZens OF the town Tor several
carriages His intercourse with the business
men and reputable people Of the place, was
satisfactory. He was offered, in payment Ola
claim a note of one farmer, and requested to
inquire as to his responsibility. lie did so,
and in the course OF his Investigations, en-
countered the Clerk of the Court Of that re-
gion, who was chatty clever sort OF man,
with that inquisitveness peculiar to North
Carolina. As the two were of the same pro.
fession, the Free Masonry of the craft was
taken advantage of by the Wilsonian County
Clerk to question Mr. Sheldon about the ef'
fects of Lincolm'S election. Mr.. S. told him
he did not come to talk politics, but Mr.. Davis

an impartial opinion Mr. S. told him that he

The mercury, Us indicated by thermome-
ter, on the lower part of Fort street, fell as low
as zero on Saturday morning. Ice was run
ming l.. the river all day yesterday, and kept
mostly upon the American side, and the space
covered was from two to three hundred feet
wide. The cakes were of varying thickness,
from a half inch to near three inches. 1t
formed, probably, in Lake st Clair.
BY passenger arriving from Grand Haven
Saturday evening, on the Detroit aud Mllwau-
kee road we learn that the gale was then still
prevailing there with almost uneXampled
force, and that some eighteen inches OF snow
had fallen. 1t had drtted SO much upon the
track as to render it necessary to employ
three locomotives in drawing one baggage and
one passerger car from Grand Haven to NUM-
ca, and .wo from Grand Rapids.
The snow fell us thickly on the Michigan
Central railroad, in the western portion of the
state, as il did on the Detroit and Milwaukee.
One train was five hours in going from Dowa-
giac to Kalamazoo, and at the former place, it
is reported, they have as much snow as at any
time last winter
From the Detroit Advertiser, Nov q.
Cupt. Spading of the Northern Light, from
Ontunagyn, Nov. II, reports that the propeller
Globe lett Detour Sunday morning, bound up.
Her detention there was owing to the preva'
fence OF SNOW SlOTHl' OuG Hdu PuVi sup
ply of provisions ON board. Capt Spalding
reports the storm at Detour as violent and the
weather as of corresponding severity with that
experienced here. Snow storms were frequent
on Lake Superior, but the depth remaining ON
the ground was not yet great. AT Detour it
was from eighteen inches to two feet deep.
From the report of Capt. Spading. we are led
TO believe il a matter OF doubt whether the
steamers now on Lake Superior can get down
this season. The difficulty will not be in the
canal, but in Mud Lake, and the other shall.
low parts of the St. Mary river The canal
can be kept from freezing by letting the water
flow through the locks.
A gentleman of this city, who makes note
of the weather, Informed us, yesterday that
the like of this cold spell has been seen before,
and that not long ago. He says that on the
