! PosTPoNED.-Yesterday afternoon
E. M. Burns, charged with the MUIR
der of Thomas Halvey at the Phoenix
Saloon on Tuesday morning last, was
taken before Justice Davidson, and
by consent of counsel the examina-
ton was postponed until Tuesday
morning next. The warrant charges
him with murder ia the first degree,
and on this warrant he was regularly
committed. A large number of wit
nesses were present, sand gave their
personal recognizances for their at
tendance at the time appointed.
CHANGE OF WEATHER. = For
the information of the Smith
sonian Institute, and other SINH
lar Institutes, we mention the
fact that a great change has taken
place in the atmosphere. The
heated term is broken into, and is
gone for the present. The mercury,
which had climbed up to go, a few
days ago. had qnietly settled down to
780 at noon yesterday. and Was sever
al degrees lower after dark last night.
This is probably one effect of the
magnificent meteor seen on Tuesday
night.

Rnco Between n Locomotive and
,EiaiasH iai n Prairie Fire. utttl

George w. Bungay, who recently witt
messed prairie fire, writing to the Detroit
Advertise. and Tribune, says Of it: 7ui1
About seven O'clock at night took pas
sage on the Dixon Air Line railroad. The
train had proceeded but few miles from
the city Of Chicago when we overlook a
fire on the prairie. 1t was bitter night;
the wind was blowing hard, and the snow
was falling, but the tall, stiff dry grass Of
the prairie stood high above the thin sheet
Of snow on the ground, and the flames
spread with great rapidly. There was a
broad margin between our track and the
riyero Of fire that swept before the wind
The line of flames was about half a mile
in length, and now and then 1t made such
rapid progress 1t seemed to keep
pace with, the train. It was pic
tureeque and grand race between the
fire steed of the prairie and the iIOn horse
The former had no delays to make at sta
tions, side tracks and crossings, The latter
had the advantage of human brain to do
its thinking and pilot it. On, on they sped
through the thick and stormy night. One
crackling and whispering ih the wind,
soaring and driving away every living
thing in its path, the other neighing and
pressing forward with a tread which shook
the ground and made the light In the near
eSC WlnuOW QuiNcT lihC ASPEN IOdNON' OhC
flared its banner Of flame in the sky and
tossed its torches upon the crisp air warn
ing, Of hpproaching danger and light In
which to escape to a safe retreat the other
with its name of smoke and breath Ofsparks,
andhitse eye In its forehead, dashed along in a
meteoric shower ofsparks. 1t was "poetry in
motion" with the rhythm of pro-
gress. whose sound Is music married to the
cOuplet OF iron. in the iron epic of an adj
Vanctng age. Our locomotive gained the
race at last, and we lett the fiery cavalry in
the distance, fighting with the wind and
the snow, aud leapfng over creeks and
ponds In its coCrse-making bOn-fires OF
the lone hay stacks that stood, like Lots
wife, within, the reach Of innumerable
spears Of flame. Before it was borne a
crimson. flag that lit up the heavens; be-
hind II was charred and blackened wake
of cinders. Whether it sweped away any
human habitations in its path, l cannot say
but It was most attractive sight, and so
full of suggestion have been tempted to
give brief account of it.. fI"

The President and Reconstruction.

During the frequent interviews bctwcc,
the President and his Southern friends. he
has stated his views regarding reconstruction
matters at great lcnghth, and has advised
them to appeal to the courts for satisfaction i
they feel that the military authorities have dc
privcd them of any Of their rights He ha.
been particularly poiuted in giving this advic.
to parties pardoned under his recent amnesty
proclanation and they have obtained permis
sion from him to report his statements. In
several instances his friends assumed the au
thorty from the permission to repeat, to put
them in writing, and one of thcm has been
seen by your correspondent, headed, "Tc
whom 1T may concern" which embraces opin
ions about us follows: The President stated
to the writer that he could not reopen regis
tration without incurring certain risk of i'm
peachmcnt, although he hud been dviscd to
DO SO by some of the most earnest supporters OF
his policy, who argued that if he assumed the
power to do so under his authority us Com
mander-in-Chicf, giving orders to military
subordnatcs he would be supported by the
Constitution loving and law abiding portion
OF the people. Gu the other hand, other
equally warm supporters of his policy had ad
vlscd him, that if he attempted to assert his
military power in directing the manner of the
SASoo.toh "a S'Sh NutiSS lupOSeO ON nlltary
authorities by direct Act of Congress, he
would be assuming authority not vested in Of
iice, either by the Constitution, the Articles
Of War, or by any law now in existence. lie
also stated that the promulgation of the am.
ncsty proclamation would result, if properly
managed, in disrupting the Republican party,
because it the courts decided, as he thought
they should, that the classes pardoncd by it
were restored to their full rights as citizens,
and the leaders of that party would persist in
supporting the military authorities in their re-.
tnsal to allow them to register, the natural
consequence would be that the people would
flock to the support of the Judiciary. The
letter or circular concludes by personal op.
peal from the writer to give its contents wide
circulation, and postscript is added. stating
that MIR. johnson, in his desires to peacefully
settle the differences now existing in the coun-
try sincerely hopes that his friends will seek
every opportunity to alny all bitterness OF
feeling engendered by the political situation,
and cllccrtuIly submit to the decisions of the
proper tribunals, whatever they may be.
