Death of ThurIOvv w. Brown.

The death of Thurlow Weed Brown,
at his residence in Fort Atkinson, on the
night of the l4th ult, is announced by
telegram from GAINESVILLE. Mr.. Brown
was known all over the State, and very
generally throughout the north, as an
able and untiring advocate of the cause
of Temperance. From early manhood
he had labored In this cause with voice
and pen. He published for number
Of years tina Cayuga Chief, in Cayuga
County, New York, but, about twelve
years ago. he removed 10 Fort Atkin-
son in this State, where he continued to
publish his paper under the name of the
Wisconsin CHIEF. The paper was main
" devoted tolhe cause to which he had
devoted his life, and was an able and
fearless journal, worthy of much wider
circulation and patronage than il ever
received.
Mr.. Blown was an able writer and an
eloquent speaker and though he was of
ten saddened by the lack Of sympathy
and encouragement in his labors, and
little Roadway which he seemed to make
against the great evil he was combat
ting, yet he did much good, and he is
now reaping his reward in the better
land. For year past he has been suf-
fering much from the disease which ter
minated his life, consumption. The cause
of temperance and good morals, in short
the cause. of humanity, has lost an able
and earnest advocate, one whoscplace it
will ba hard to fill - Wisconsin,.

RIVER THIEvEs.-This town for sew
eral weeks past has been infested by a
gang of River Thieves, by the side of
whom open murderers are respectable.
Yesterday forenoop, as the Phil. SHKR-
IDAN was discharging freight here, some
of them went on board and entieed a
passenger Into a game for 500. The
stake holder left with the money iu good
season, and just as the boat was leaving,
the player left, pursued by his victim
with revolver, and the gambler only
saved his life by keeping among the
crowd on the levee, so the passenger
dared not shoot until he had escaped
st. Paul and Hastings, through. their
authorities, have passed the most strin-
gent laws against these vagrant scamps.
A vigilance committee is rOw organized
here, but it would be better to have the
Council take the matter in hand.

LEGATION.
The company are in very good health, none
being in hospital. Some symptoms of the
scurvy has made its appearance IN the regi-
ment, but there is not any very serious cases.
great care is taken by the Surgeon to prevent
its progress. 1 will state here. simply to
show the contrast between tie Hospital re-
cords of last year at this time and this year,
that the books show seventeen to have died of
scurvy year ago last month. and one hun
bred ami ffty attending sick call per day
while we have not had man die of the dis
ease. and moi near that number attending sick
call.
Since / wrote my previous letter there has
been another buffalo hunt, with as much sue
cess as the one spoken of in my first letter /;
but a sadder misfortune happened 10 the par
ty this time. David Davis, of Co. G., well
known in Prescott. was lost, and is supposed
to be dead. He was last seen chasing buffa-
10 at full speed. and got strayed FROM the rest
of The hunters. Diligent search has been
made for him but lie cannot be found. His
horse was found by party of IndiaRs. Mr..
Davis is missed very much by the Co. and
Reg't as he was a fine man. and well liked
by all who knew him. Everything has been
done that weuld lead TO the discovery Of him,
but no signs have been discovered by which
he might be traced. 1t is very probable that
the poor man persisted by cold on the vast
prairies az Dakota Ter, as II was quite cold
at that time, (Jan. 8: '65.)
We are having splened weather-very little
snow, but from all accounts, Wisconsin seems
TO be snow bound.
We hardly know when to look for relief
but are anxiously waiting for the time to
arrive. We trust it may not be long hence,
and that we may get out of this internal
home Of the Red Skins.

RIVER FALLS.

JAY WH1PPLE thus writes to the La
Crosse Republican: lal
The stranger travelling up the Missis-
sippi river who steps off the boat at Pres
colt, will need but to ride two hours to
find beautiful inland little village mes
tied amid the green covered bills in a de-
iightful valley on the banks of a sparkling
stream of pure water.
River Falls, with staid and industri
Gus population of seven hundred inhabi-
tants, reminds one Of New England
hamlet-wilh the enterprise of those
people who have realized the experience
of Western life. Surrounded by a fine
agricultural country, it makes the town
the centre of a healthy and prosperous
community. Churches. seminary of
learning, inviting hotels, grist mills,
stores, manufacturing establishments,
neat and pleasant residences, form part
of this beautiful village. The place is
too healthy for doctors to enjoy lucra-
tive business in their profession and so
they have directed their attention to the
pursuits of life where their skill requires
no dying object as living illustration to
demonstrate the science of medicine
Limbs of the law have here failed to
make out case for the want of eli
ent, and consequently were, respectively,
compelled to gather up their Blackstone,
and quietly steal away. But legitimate
business is active and prosperous.
