SEN AToR RIDDLE.

Hon GEORGE READ RIDDLE of this
state, appeared in the United States SEN
ate on Tuesday, took the oath--which so
exercised his predecessor as to canse his
resignation-and entered upon his new
career as Senator of the United States
Mr.. RIDDLE may not be SO able politi-
clan as Mr. Bayard, but he certainly is
more shrewd and sagacious, as is shown
by his swallowing down entire the politi-
cal cud which Mr.. Bayard sickened over
and Vomited up after chewing it for year
or two. The ex-senator likes the pasture
fields of Montgomery best, while the new
Senator is willing TO be satisfied with the
greenback" lawns of Washington.
Senator RIDDLE is gentleman of more
progressive ideas than Mr.. Bayard, is
energetic and active, and if upon the
right side Of the national question would
probably be Of some service to his country
in Congress, He now has an opportunity
OF placing himself right upon the record
of duty, by standing side by side with his
former political associates Dix, Dickin.

PgRmoUs NoyAlE-A Nan Crosses from ,IsC-
feTsoaglRe 10 Louisville on The Ice,--0ne of the
most hazardous fcats ever attempted in these
parts and one which equals anything Of the Kind
that we ever heard Of, was accomplished yester.
day, by citizen of our sister city, Jeifersongille
by the name of VIM II. Harrington This gen
tleman, desiring to come to this city, and not
wishing to take the Greuitous route by New
Albany, came to the conclusion that he would
cross the cakes Of floating ice. He accordingly
commenced his perilons voyage, starting from
the Indiana shore on Que of the cakes Of ice, and
after short but trying voyage, he reached the
shore In perfect safety. The trip was made by
jumping from one cake to another, Mr., Har-
rington selected bis foatheld with great care.
A large number Of citizens who saw MIR. uar.
ringtOh start from the other shore watched him
with great anxiety, expecting every minute TO
see bin carried over the falls and dashed TO
pieces by the running ice and all were reioiced
and surprised when they saw that he had reached
this side of the riGeT il perfect safety. To 40.
complsh thil great feat required undauntel
courage, and this Mr.. Harrington possesses to a
great degree. The crossing was made without
the assistance of a pole. or even stick; and
when this fact is taken into consideration we
may safely say that this is the most extraordinary
feat ever accomplished in thig or any other sec.
ton of the coupiry. The current at this point,
owing TO the suction Of the falls, is very swift
and as the ice is carried over the great fill Of
the Ohio, it is BROKEN to pieces; aud had MIR,
Harrington missed his foOthold, or been carried
over on one Of the cakes Of ice, horrible death
would certainly have been his fate-Louispill,
