about the Congressional contest.
We know that Mr.. JulIan's anti

that when first elected the Con

ocrats who now talk about con
servatlsm, and they defeated a
good Henry Clay whig to elect
the ti-slavery Julian. If Ju-
Ian is a radical man, they gave
him the power to make his ideas
practicable.
We admiil hat David Kilgore
is very sensitive about Southern
rights and firing the Southern
heart, but We cannot forget his

A WORD IN SEAsoN.-It is hardly

A WORD IN SEAsoN.-It Is haruiy
possible that the large body of snow now
on the ground can melt away without
swelling the streams and rivers TO an
unprecedented height. There cannot De
an inch less than an average OF three
feet of snow over all Orleans County,
and these three feet represent seven or
eight feet, that have gradually settled ana
consolidated. If we are to nave any
seed time and harvest, this snow must
soon disappear, and it can hardly pass
away except by the help of heavy rains.
Freshets must needs follow, and probably
such freshets as we rarely see. Our adj
vice to people who have loose property
anv where near the banks of rivers, Is
that they speedily remove it beyond the
limits of the highest water mark they
have ever known. 1t may prevent a
good deal of waste and destruction. Nor
will it be at all amiss to strengthen dams
and bridges, whenever there is an op
nor,unitv TO do so. A word to the wise
is sufficient.
