SPRING.-These first few days of April have
opened to us with the delightful weather and
atmosphere of spring.
This season has come at last, and the trees
and grass in our public parks and streets are
showing the first buildings of their new annual
life. Soon all nature will be clothed in the luxu-
rance of a new vernal vegetation. Spring time
with US is the most pleasant season OF the year;
the simile of youth, with all its hlgh-born hopes
and budding aspirations, but particularly this
year do we welcome its advent, after our long,
severe, and tedious winter. Extremes meet,
however, and we fear that the summer. to cor
respond will be long, dry, and hot, in order to
compensate for the excessive quantity of
moisture and extreme cold that has been expe-
rtenced for the last few months; but till this
comes we can refresh ourselves in this new
spring life, observing It's daily unfoldings of
beauteous life with pleasure and profit, as 1t
commences and merges onward into the meri-
dian life of the summer.

PUGNAC1oUs FEMALEs.-Margaret Black is a
white woman, about twenty-five years of age,
and lives in the vicinity of RoGman street,
above Tenth. She is notorious as the possessor
OF wilful and violent temper, which incites
her to commit numerous misdeeds. For one of
these she was arrested, but pertinaciously re-
fused to accompany the officer peaceably,
deeming 1t consistent with her nature to punch,
smite, and otherwise annoy her captor, who,
nevertheless. took her before Alderman Swift,
who fined her and committed her in sufficient
bail to keep the peace.
Elizabeth Alexander Is an older person,
noted for noise, and continually getting into
difficulties. Yesterday she had penchant for
shying bricks, stones, mud, etc. in the vicinity
of Eighteenth and Lombard streets, at every
body and everything, to the general DETACHMENT
of personal and public property. She was COM
mitted by Alderman Swift in the sum of $500
bail.

A GUN THAT WENT OFF.-Charles Gum

Rodman street, with large quantities OF highly
combustible spirlts-gunpowder whisky-sud-
denly went of, part Of his body striking an
tention of not missing its mark, that the indi-
vidual sank, without word OF remonstrance
or strength to defend. AS a gun when once
unloaded is almost useless, and easily handled,
so this Gum was quietly taken, by Officer Pol
lock- to the Station House, and from thence
before Alderman Cloud, and committed TO
answer.

the road from that city to Atchison, and
it rsaily seems as il the cpponsnts were in
the majority. But Atchison proposes to
have direct communication VITA St. Lou
is, 10 spite Of Lsavspworth. An immense
meeting was held in Atchison. on Satur.
day evening. to take action on railroad
measures. The principal speech was
made by Col. Abcll. from the report ol
which We gather some interesting infor'
mstion. he stated that, by building the
road from Atchison, via Oskaloosa. to
Lawrence. connecting there with th. Law.
renee and Pleasant Hill Road, the routt
to St. Louis would be forty miles shorter
than BY way Of Lsavsnworth; and thst i
would be to Atchiscn's advantage to Sc
cure this connection, and let Lesvenwortl
quarrel. and lose the advantage of north
srr connections. He stated that The At
Gibson. Topeka and Santa Fe Road wa
already under contract; ana that the en-
gineers were ct work making the prslim
iusry survey Of the Atchison and Nebras
ka City Road. and tina. arrangements wer
perfected to put large force of hands t,
work IS soon as the location was made
and in less than twelve months the car
would be running through Doniphsl
County, to the Nebraska line. Thi
would give direct railroad communication
between Nebraska and St. Louis, pi,
Lawrence, and would make Atchisou
railroad centre. Col. Abel also statet
that Gov. Butler, of Nebraska, had beer
in Atchison recently, and pledged the co
operation of his State in favor of the rost
north.
This latter road can reach Lincoir
City. the new Capita! of Nebraska. By
rpnning up the valley OF the Esmsha
which commences just above White

From Lincoln City, road north oil

Road. Thus it will be seen. that by thi'

route to that city, and will place St
