McCUMBER's ON NIBUs LINE.-Those who
have had occasion to cross the Mississippi
river at this point, during the period Of
closing by ice, or when the ice foes in
places become rotten and give way when
the only means Of crossing is in the ice
sledgc, an amphibious sort of craft, that
is alternately hauled by hands or padded
with oars; will be glad to hear that the
Milwaukee & Prairie du Chicn Railway
company have made arrangements with S.
McCumber, Of this city, to convey passen-
gers to and from tie cars at the stipulated
price Of 50 cents per head. BY this ar
rangcment the Traveller is sure Of a safe
transit either way, no matter what the diff.
ficulties which oppose, at price which no
one will gainsay is most reasonable
Heretofore, the travelling public have been
compelled to pay, when the crossing was
bad, as high sometimes as three dollars for
u passage,-and we will remark that there
are times when the risk Of life and limb to
say nothing Of the labor is but moderately
recompenscd at hat figure. We doubt not,
that the public will agree with US that the
r. r. company have done good thing for
the public in insuring q transit with ordi.

for the sum Of fifty cents. Tickets may be
had at the various railway stations, and C {

RadicaIism COndeInn cd.

The Boston Advertiser, one Of the mos,
influential journals of the eastern states
regards the late elections as the verdict OF
the people against the course pursued by
the radical managers, and direct avowa
Of distrust Of their policy and guidance
We have not room in these columns to
transfer the entire article to our columns
and content oursclf with brief extracts
We quote:
ut is impossible to disguise the fact tina
the impression has become deeply settled
in the public mind, that what are usually
termed radical influences have by degrees
obtained all ascendancy in the affairs Of the
nation, beyond that which they would re
ceiva from the independently judgment of the
President. The country learned, long
since, at least to distrust the wisdom and
foresight Of those exercising these infu.
ences. The great topics of political and
military management agitated at the las,
session OF Congress, gave ample opportu
nifty for testing the judgment and prudence
Of those who succeeded most completely in
shaping the general character of the pro.
cecdpgs. We do not undertake now to
pass upon any practical measure Of the
sessiOn-having had occasion to do so here.
tofOre, and often unfavorably. But we lay
it down as a proposition scarcely needing
argument, that the general conduct of the
controlling action of Congress was not sucl,
rs TO command or to deserve tie confidence
and respect Of the people"
Again:
1.-The country saw factions and noisy
course OF proceedings, in which passion
usurped the place of reason; it saw the
widest propositions introduced and urged
with scarcely thought which extended
beyond the impulse of the moment; the
President was threatened and csjolcd by
turns military affairs Of the greatest mo.
ment were brought forward and submitted
to the judgment Of men OF inferior stand
ing even among politicians and extrcm,
measures, touching the gravest subjects
were carried through under pressure anc
by aid Of clamor which failed to insure
the fair operation Of the judgment Of those
voting for them"
After abiding to the fact that the party
tell under the temptation which usually
besets party that is too strong, the Id
ssrtiser concludes
ut was not then without warning tina
the radical managers forced their polio,
upon Congress and upon the Republican
party. Our columns have often borne wit
ness to the distrust felt as to the tendency O
their proceedings, and to the general sens,
Of misfortune, in the absence Of any oppo
sition of sufficient strength to enforce pru
dent action. But no warnings could avail
and the result has been the defeat in mos
Of the fall elections, Of those who elaine.
to represent the influences which had gov
erned Congress, and to have secured tn
control Of the administration"

;W There is said to be good authority
for the statement that when Gen. Halleck
was visiting the army of the Potomac last
week, he ordered Gen. Burnside to make
an immediate advance, for political reasens.
Gen. Burnside replied that so long as the
army was under his command its move.

World, 18th.
Does not this little item furnish US clue
to the cause Of NcCllellan's removal. He
was removed for not moving his army when
ordered. We doubt not history will show
that Mcclellan was ordered forward for
political reasons" that he was governed
by military necessities" and moved at
soon as the condition of his arT y allowed it
Burnside's reply is patriotic and dignifi
ed, but We fear his disobedicnce of orders
will ensure his removal at the moment when
| lac can be the most effective.
