Of rock and earth. Returning to the mouth
OF the cave, he behelJ an al~ost exactly sim

the pit, he fastened tAe rope around his body,
suspended himself again over the abyss, and
shouted to his friends 10 raise him to The

one, and the rope, being il-aijusted arou:id
his body, gave him The most excrutiating
pain. But soon his pain was forgotten in \
new and dreadful peril
When he was 20 feet from the mouth Of the
pit and one hundred from the above swaying
and swinging in mid-air, he heard rapid and.
excited words Of horror aud alarm above.
and soon learned that the rope by, which he
was upheld had taken fire from the friction
of the timber over which it passed. Sever

THE FOURTH IowA.-The descrip.
ton Of the fighting at Vicksbug, in
our columns this morning, pays an
other tribute to the gallantry Of Iowa
volunteers. This time it is the 4th
Regiment of infantry, which has
achieved fame, and added another to
the chaplets of honor which are hear
after to be the glory of our state. This
Regiment is from the Western part of
the state. 1t was Originally commanded
by Colonel, now Brigadier General,
Granville NJ. Dodge. We regret to
say that the name of its present Colo
mel has escaped our memory. The gal
lantry of its conduct leads to the belief
that he worthily succeeds to its com.
mand. The loss of the Regiment in
killed and wounded, though less than
at first reported, is enough to show that
it occupied post of danger, and did
all its duty. That is enough.-Hawk.

an explanation from France As regards the
promises and treaties made or to be made
with Davis, and that the cool answer turned
to their inquiries have vexed the Spanish
Government deeply. To recapitulate, the
sum and substance of the agreement be-
tween France and Davis amounts 10 this 4.
In case of any immediate trouble with Eng
land or Spain Davis will be aided by France
in conquering the whole Of the West Indies,
save, of course, those islands now in poses
sion Of France; while Davis as a return for
the recognition of the South by France, and
for armed aid from, her, will assist her to con-
quer Mexico and Central America, aud will
by treaty guarantee taese territories to her
1t is, of course anticipated by the new al
lies that trouble will arise with Spain and
England as well as with you ; but they deem
their union powerful one aud France win
accept with bad grace any remonstrance
from England, who is about to secure the
throne of Greece This fact will probably
cause her to keep clear from the great i'm
broglio about to arise from the joint acton of
Davis and France. For Spain the new al
lies care not jet.
These are startling facts, and as they are
obtained from good sources, the attention of
our Government should be given to this mat
ter, and immediate steps be taken to coun-
teract Napoleon's plans against the welfare,
nay. the very existence of the American Re-
public. The Administration and the peo-
pie must understand that great, fearful
peril menaces. and that formidable prepara-
ton must be made to meet the danset.-N
y Herald.

Secretary sfState, in letter of instruction
to Mr.. Dayton, Minister to France, declared
the object Of the war to be, not to disturb
the system of slavery as it exists under the
Constitution, and the Crittendsn resolutions
passed almost nnan i'm: usly by the House
of Representatives on the 22d day Of July,
1861, declared that the war was not waged
for conquest or subjugatioa, nor for the
purpose Of overthrowing or interfering with
the rights or established institutions Of these
