The Sleeping Gar Palace.

quito number OF .adics and gentle
men yesterday visited the "Florida. +"
the sleeping car Of Mcssrs. Pullman,
, h,Imball u Ramsey, which was on ex-
hlbElon on tie track Of the South Caro-.
lima Railroad, above Ann street
She 10 certainly more complete and
convenient IN her arrangements, elegant
in finish, and gorgeous in decorations,
than anything of the kind ever before
seen south Of tho Ohio River, and moth
ms less than the Palace Steamers, Great
'&epu6hc or Robert b. leo, bears any
comparison to this car. Our descriptions
can give but little idea of the beauty
and elegance, but wo viii give briefly
her dimensions TRAININGS list, etc.
The "Florida' is 6fty.four feet long,
ten and half wide, aud thirteen feet
SIX inches high. At either end Of tho
car s an elegant toilet with marble
slabs, silver trimmings, splendid mirrors
and all necessary GxtIres for ladies and
gcnt!emcn. These saloons aro divided
rom tho main portion Of the car by an
elaborately finished partition Of emboss-
cd plate glass and black walnut. Tho
centre Of the car is divided into ten sec
tons Of two double berths each one
state room, and one clcgantly fitted FAM
ny room, which has ono single and two
double bcrths, two easy chairs, table,
mirrors. etc.
Thc inside wood work is Of black wal.
nut, surmomted with handsome cary.
lngs tastefully embelished with gliding.
9'he oeiling and upper berths arc Gle.
gantiy ircscoed, which gives vcry
cheerful appearance. lIach berth is fur.
nlshed with handsome mirror, and Mt
the end Of the car is n long mirror giving
full length vews III the centre Of tho
car are two linen closets, between which
hangs a splendid curtain with tho namo
ct tho car worked across the top in gold
letters.
The sofas aro trimmed with moouett
and the carpets and curtains arc the fin
est ever brought to this country. Eacl,
berth or bod is furnished with q good
hair mattress, linen sheets. largo pillows,
and the most beautiful! Blankets we over
saw. In brief, the eptiro internal ar.
and appearance Of tho spa
cious coach resembles the saloon Of an

This was minority Of all the votes cast,
Fremont having received 1,342, Cd,

Lincoln receiving l,s6G,452, Douglas

Bell $50, ,G3I, vote which, combined,
would have defeated Mr.. Lincoln by
nearly million majority. At the last
presidential contest, with part Of the
the States out, change Of five per

would have given Mcclellan a majority
Where parties arc so nearly evenly bal
anced rs these figures indicate. it teach

and keeping in view the common good,

considerations. The patriotic and con-
servatlve clements OF the country may
not be able TO form a third party that
can cope with either of the existing po.
liiical organizations. but they are able,
rs they have shown lately, to throw
weight enough into tho scale of any
party which approaches most nearly to
their conservative and rational views to
give it success.

Snow SronMs.-The greatest snow
storm recorded in Russia, occurred on
the steppes of Kirgheez in Siberia, in
l6G7, destroying 2S5, 900 horses, 3d.
400 cattle, 100000 sheep, and TO-
600 camels. Tho greatest recorded
in England is that of 1914, in which,
for forty-cight hours, tho snow fell SO
furiously that drifts Of sixteen, twcn-
ty, and even twenty-four feet we're re-
corded in various places. in tho
South Of Scotland, in 1920, there were
thirteen drifty days, which killed
ninetenths of all tho sheep. On Fisk
dale Moor, out OF 10000 Only 45
wereleft alive, and the shepherds
everywhere built up huge semicircu-
lar walls of the dead creatures, to af-
ford shelter to the living till the gallo
should end. An inch an hour is
thought to'bo the average rate of do
post, though four INCHES are said to
have fallen during tho severe storm in

who contributed, present you this token
Of our respect for you. the President of the

something more worthy Of your acceptance,
but, after looking around the table, find
nothing more suitable, and though small
the gift, NO hope you will accept 1T. We
wish from cur honr's every blessing for

In reply, Mr.. Davis said:

SIR JoiN FRANKIIN.-Our brother
Capt. Hal! is prosecuting his search for
the remains Of his late and eminent bro
ther, Sir John Franklin. 1t appears
that, having been disappointed in OBJ
taininga team Of dogs, Captain hal!
had started on a slcdging tour, in the
course Of which hc met party of hos
tile Esquimanx, from whom he learned
that about the time Of the loss of Sir
John Franklin's vessel some white men
carried dead body On shore, and built
brick vault, which they carefully &C.
mcnted, and in which they deposited Il
corpse, aftcrward covering the vault
with heavy stone Gags This body
Mr. Hall believes to be the body Of Sir
John Franklin. and his intention is TO
visit the locality, and satisfy himself
upon the point, il possible. Since, how.
ever, this region is inhabited By hostile
Fnatlves, Mr.. Hall has thought 1t ncces-
sary to take with him small force Of
white men. 10 secure this he offered
$500 in gold each to any five men from
the whaling feet who would accompany
him. Ofcourse he secured his men, so
that it is not improbable that next sum-
me, we may receive definite information
as to the rcsting.place of Sir John
Franklin. Captain Hall has secured
many valuable articles formerly owned
by Sir John lFranklin's, party. -National
