The ConfincAtt0n Hf1I.

In the meantime, what is the occupation of
the federal legis1ators2 While their chief
general is shut up in a little patch IF ground
under the protection of his gunboats, and the
pr sident is in vain asking for volunteers to
reinforce him, ~hile the reckless policy Of the
dominant party is urgipg even the Union'sts
OF the border States into opposition aud rous-
ing spirit OF desperate resistance In the
Southwest, the two houses, as they exist at
Washington. are engaged in passing what they
call contiscation bi /, devosfng to capital
punishment eight millions Of people! 1t is
impossible to conceive q more fmpotent dis
play Of spite than this piece Of Legislation,
which the Republican party would not consent
to modify even at the instance OF Mr.. lincoln.
The idea OF further embittering an already
hopeless struggle by threatening the whole
Southern population With death, Or five years'
Imprisonment, could enter only into the minds
Of the men who were SO anxious last year to
cury out their political theory by executing 8
privateer's crew at the certain cost Of = bloody
Teprfsal on federal prisoners. At She present
time the number OF Northern soldiers in the
bands of the confederates probably exceeds
that of the confede1ates who are prisoners at
the North, and any attempt to add to the hor-
rors of the war by series Of judicial murders
fedeEates. Happily, it is certain that no ruler
will ever dare to put In furce this B>ana
da1ous law. It will only remain monument
Of infamy to those who passed it, and be
ranked hereafter with the attempted d.ssrue-
tion Of Charleston harbor and the savage va
carries Of Gen. Butler.

considerable extent, nowadays, as the Pa
triotic Peak Family. Their liberality to the
cause fthc Union, justly entities them to
the name. Ono instance: In Northern
Illinois, recently. the Family gave twelve con-
certs, the net receipts of which amounted to
fourteen hundred dollars, and every cent Of
this they donated to Soldiers Aid Societies.
On the 9Th inst. this troupe gave a concert
in Dubuque for the, benefit Of the Ladies'
Volunteer Aid Society, and we understand
tina, the Family, will give another benefit
to the same noble cause on their return from
this place. The Dubuque Times gives the
troupe the following notice: 5ela5a
TuE PEAK FAxLY.-This accomplished
and talented company have kindly rendered
their services to the Ladies' Volunteer Aid
Society of Dubuque, on Thursday evening Of
the 9Th inst, for the benefit ofthc relief fund.
This company have been favorably known
to the music and fun. loving public for a per.
iod of more than twenty years. As bell
ringers the Peak family have never been sur.
passed, and as harpist, Mr.. w. II. Peak
stands at the head Of his profession in this
country. His performance of playing two
separate and distinct tunes, at the same time
on the same instrument is unrivalled. The
great attraction of the present company how
ever, is the four juveniles. For them We can
say that better instructed or more talented
quartettc, have never appeared before an
& Marsh troupe astonished this comedy low
srs- ~rsk hns~ n.
think Master Charley one Of the finest soprano
singers we have heard for many days, and
his clear sonorous voice is peculiarly adapted
to the style of Scottish ballads in which he
excels. The two Misses are also very fine
singers, and their acting is inimitable. But
Master frankie, Speaking after the manner
Of mem is the best card in the pack. He is
truly an "infant prodigy" For child five
years and a few months old, his performances
are certainly astonishing. To see him in his
favorite characters Of John Smith, Billy Boy,
Live Yankee, etc., is well worth all it costs
both in time and money. His comic deln.
cations are equal to those of many ofour pro.
fessed comedians, aud we think he even ex.
GELS little George Marsh, and that is saying
about all tina: can be said for any public
wonder. The Peak family individually, OF
taken in the aggregate either publicly or SO.
cially, arc as unexceptionable If not more so
than any company Of conccrtists in the coun.
try, and their considerate kindness to the La
dies Volunteer Aid Society, as well as the
many other similar manifestations Of their
patriotism during their present tour, is
enough to ensure them hearty welcome
wherever their interests or inclinations will
lead them.

Great Rain Storm. - The hardest rain
storm we have witnessed in many years &C.
cured here on Friday last. Tho rain began
70 fall about . o'clock in torrents, and its &C.
compartment Of thunder and lightning was
terrific and sublime. At the end of three or
four hours, during which time it rained the
hardest, it was next to impossible to get
around town. Every little gully was the bed
Of great torrent. The ravine which courses
East and West through town, crossing Main
Street on Fifth Street, was filled with rapid
stream of water, about eight rods wide. Mr..
DEIHL, living in the basement Of GARsisos's
building, corner Of Main and Fifth Streets,
was completely drowned out, there being at
one time ten inches Of water on his floor. We
never saw rain fall with greater rapidly and
force. We noticed bsb-sled standing on
high ground, nearly level, that was hitched
along for distance Of ten rods This kind
Of a storm did not last long. Tho rain, how
eyer, continued with but little cessation until
Sunday morning, when the clouds broke
a~ay, Old Sol eame out in al his glory,
and the approximations Of second deluge
were scattered By his joyous rays.
