MIS-. II. W. B~EEcHER AND Mrs. NJ. Y.
BEACH IN PERIL.-It will be remembered
by some of our readers that Rev. Il. W.
Beecher crossed the ice in 1856, and
had a rather dangerous experience,
which, il is supposed, was sufficient to
cure him of all further wish to emulate
Peter Of old, whose unsuccessful attempt
10 wsAk the Sea of Galilee is generally
known. Mrs. Beecher, however, not to
be outdone by her husband, yesterday
secured the company Of Mrs. Moses Y.
Beach, and together the two attempted
TO cross the bridge. Captain Duncan,
of Mr.. Beecher's church, unable to dis
suade them from the adventure, deter
mined to accompany them, and imper-
lied his own life for their safety. The
passage was a hard one, but gathering
up ali their pluck, the ladies persisted
in their course, and had gotten three
four.hs Of the way across, when the ice
near the shore began to break up. The
danger of their position can be imagin'
ed, and they seemed fully to appreciate
il. The excitement on the shore wa:
raised to boiling pitch. Apparently nc
means of escape was at hand. The ice
ali around them began to crack; ther
the cakes swsyed fearfully. The crowe
sbouted to save them; the women rar
wildly from one cake to another; ropes
vere thrown them, which they failed e
catch, and in the excitement 1t seemee
that they must perish. At length, how
ever, the tide forced the cakes on which
they were standing close up to the dock
and With the assistance Of those OF
shore the party were safely landed. |
is 10 be presumed that their desire u
cross the East river after sucn . la
is stated this time.

Business here and in the interior is
stirring up considerably. The good
weather and improved roads give new
life to everything. Freights on steam.
boats and railroads are fast increasing
travel is charging, and altogether
the encouragement o is in wonderful
contrast to the sleepiness Of the Winter
just past.
In the East the indications are that
the now approaching Summer will be
one Of danger, difficulty and dullness to
business Of every description. Almost
everything there seems to be forced and
overdone. An inflated currency pro-
duces inflated prices and makes inflated
business. The contraction of one must
bring contraction in the other, and in
the suddenness q crash is thought to be
impending. But here, where we have a
metallic currency only, there is nc intla-
ton. Commerce is evenly balanced,
and however individuals may thrive or
decline, there is no anticipation of gen.
eral danger, on the contrary there is
nothing but hope Of o successful sea-
son. Money is becoming more plenti-
full and consequently cheaper. New en-
terprises based upon business principles
can at reasonable rates obtain means,
hence the development of many new
sources Of wealth need not long be re-
tarded. In anything that promises GER
tain return with small interest, there
are hundreds of thousands waiting for
investment. In fact, all things indicate
peace and prosperity upon this coast

FEMALE GARRorERs.-Night before
last a gentleman. was walking dowr
Third street between Spruce and Aim
oud, when he was waylaid by three
Amazons. One of them seized hin
around the neck, while the other two
held his arms and distracted his pocket
book. Releasing his neck from the
clasp of the Jezebel, he demanded the
restoration Of his money, and seized two
OF the women by the arms. The pocket
book was thrown upon the snow, and
the woman who had first grasped him
ran down the street. The gentleman,
feeling indignant at the rough treat
ment of the women, knocked n of them
down in the gutter and tripped up the
heels of another on the pavement. The
women picked themselves up and hast.

NOT A LAUGH WAS HEARD.

SOMEBODY, whose bachelor friend has been ant
gone and got married, tells all about it in the fol
owing poetical style:
Not a laugh was heard, nor a joyous note,
As our friends to the bridal we hurried
Not a Wit discharged his farewell shot,
As the bachelor went TO be married.
We married him quickly to save his fright,
Our heads from the sad sight turning;
And We sighed as we stood by the dim light,
To think he was not more discerning.
To think that a bachelor free and bright,
And shy of the sex We found him.
Should there at the altar. at dead Of night,
Be caught in the snare that bound him.
Few and short were the words that we said,
Tho of wine and cake partaking,
We escorted him home from the scene Of dread,
While his legs were awfuly shaking.
Slowly and sadly We marched him down
From the first to the lOwermOst story;
And we never have heard or seen the poor man,
Whom we left not alone in hls glory.

IT is not long since we were told by
Republicans that Slavery was the sole
cause of the war; and that if slavery
were destroyed, the country would be
safe for all time against rebellion or Sc
cession. Slavery was, accordingly abol-
ished. We are now told that the asser-
ton of State Rights was the cause Of the
war; and that the country will never be
safe until the adherents Of State Rights
are sileuced. What next? Any opin-
ion different from that of the dominant
faction, is already prescribed and desig-
mated treason. May we not expect, when
the Rights of the State shall have been
destroyed, that we shall be told that the
safety of the country cannot consist with
political discussion and that the way to
ensure porpetuity of the Government, is
to silence all opposition to the measures
of those who administer it? This, as
the next step, would be easy and nat
