INTERESTING "Reminiscences.

"Outsiier,r the Madison correspondent
of the Daily Wisconsin,, understood to be
A. L. Elmore, writes to that paper under
date Of April 9th:
"The journal Of the House Of Represen-
tatives' Of the Territory Of Wisconsin, for
9th April, 1843-16 years ago to day
hes open before me, and | find recorded on
page sos, the following: Three O'Clock
z. H., Mr. Elmore appeared and took his
seat 50 eighteen years ago this 9th day
Of April, Iroae from GAINESVILLE to Madison
in sleigh. During the whole month Of
March, l843, snow was lying on the roofs
Of the houses, and only on the last day os
tie month did it thaw any, even on the
sunny side OF the building. Town meeting
was held chat year on the 4th, snow two
feet deep, and on the 9TH Of April, the on
ii spot where the runners Of the stage
sleigh touched the ground, between Mnk
wonago and GAINESVILLE, was onsa rise near
Johnst0wn, where the wind had blown OF
the snow. When the warm weather did
come, things grew right along and we had
a very prolific and abundant haryest-and
there is no cause Of Encouragement to far
megs on account Of the backward spring

An Ugly Customer.
The New York Epenino Posi- saws

The New York Epening Posi- says:
1t has been suggested that the bomb proof
floating battery which has been so many
years building in Hoboken, for the defense
of our harbor, would prove useful vessel for
the speedy recapture of the forts in Charles
ton harbor and elsewhere on the coast, now
held by the rebels. The vessel, although in
tended chiefly for harbor use, is, we are in.
formed, quite seaworthy. One of the uses
for which she was intended, is to run down
vessels of large size, and her engines must
therefore be of great power. A correspond
ent says;
"We understand that the battery could be
finished in from four to six months that the
engines and boilers are finished and on
board, and that all that remains to be done,
is to complete the upper works and defense
of the vessel. 1t has been well established
that iron defenses, properly arranged, can
resist the heaviest artillery. The faith in the
perfect availability of the vessel, and her
ability to act Extensively, and also to sustain
all attacks, remains unchanged by the sur
viving brother and representative OF the de-
ceased protector"
There is no doubt that such a vessel as
this, begun years before Great Britain and
France commenced their iron-cased Warrior
