ST. LOUIS, Dec. 6.
A heavy snow storm set in here about
noon, and continues at this writing, IL
p. N. From three to four inches of
snow have fallen, but the temperature
being mild, its melts nearly as fast as
1t falls. The storm seems to be pretty
general.
a South Pass city dispatch says that
about three hundred Sioux Indians
attacked Was shakees band of Shoshone
Indians who were travelling in Big
Wind River Valley, aIxty miles from
here, on the 22d, two Indians were
killed on each side and several wound
ed. The Shoshones retreated to the
white settlements.
An Omaha dispatch says The snow
storm which has been raging for the
past thirty hours, Is the heaviest ever
experienced in Nebraska for many
years, there is about eighteen inches OF
snow now on the ground and the storm
still continues. So far the trains have
managed to move, but it Is feared that
slight wind will cause serious
blockade both east and west.
a Helena Montana dispatch Hnys
that SNOW fell TO the depth of six
inches on Friday night
The Territorial Legislature win meet
Mt Virginia City to-day. The storm
which commenced here yesterday con-
tinued all night and it has not entirely
stopped showing yet. The temperature
is getting colder and there are prospects
of "a freeze.

THURSDAY December 3,
The receipts for the week have been
3043 bales, against 1884 bales for the
corresponding week of last year. The
sales for the week foot up to $50, 900 lbs.
OF domestic and 1876 bales of Mediter-
ranean and South America, and 60
bales Of East Indies, Syrian and Mexi-
can.
The market continues inactive, and
although there Is more inquiry from
manufacturers there Is a wide differ
ence between their views and those of
sellers. Cash buyers could readily OBJ
OF x Wools, and some pullers would
also be willing to yield something
on the price OF supers; but as neither
dealers nor pullers are willing to make
that concession that manufacturers de-
mand, the trade Is consequently con-
lined TO the purchase of such quRnti-
ties as are needed for immediate use.
Extra fleece has been selling at prices
ranging from 461Ec for fair lots to ole
for good Ohio: Xxx has sold at 55s57c
for Ohio and Pennsylvania, and pick
lock has been in some demand at Csc.
Combing Wool is scarce, and the sales
of domestic have been at full prices
at the present price of combing wool
in Canada, 1t cannot be laid down here
at less than zoe, which Is as high as
buyers are disposed pay for fair lots.
There have been several sales Of sound

CHICAGO, Dec. 6.

CHICAGO, Dec. b.
This morning, at ten O'Clock, a
schooner, nearly dismasted, was seen
drifting on the lake, mile or more
northeast of the Illinois Central car
shops. One man was seen on the deck
making signals OF distress, but before
the vessel could be reached she had
drifted down as far as OakWood sta
ton, when she stEuok with her broad
side opposed to the waves, which made
a clean sweep over her.-Whsn ap.
preached, the man had disappeared,
and there were no signs of life in the
vessel. he was doubtless washed over
board and lost, and probably the re-
mainder of the crew had shared the
same fate.
The Germans of this city gave a re-
.ception last evening at Mannerchor
Hall, to Madame danauschels, the cell
ebrated German tragedlenne. DR.. Fes-
sci made the reception speech, and was
feelingly replied to by the Madame.
During DR.. Fessel's remarks he pre-
sented Madame JRnauschek n beanti-
inl laurel wreath. A musical enter
tainment and supper followed, which
lasted until a late hour.

CEIIRATRS.

Statistics and Observation establish
the fact that in the Atlantic States there
is an alarming diminution of marri-
ages in proportion to the increase of
population. The standards set up by
our forefathers, when every man felt it
a duty to establish himself in home,
and centraliza those influences which
customarfly attach to and ornament
the family clrcle, have been widely
departed from. Religion, morals and
all the virtues must suffer by this ten
dency. Society would not have a fig
ment of strength to support 1T If all the
young men or young ladies should
resolve upon celibacy. 1t is unneces-
sary to prove the fact that the family
cIrcIe ia the scource as we'll as protector
of all,ths affections. The young man
who lives upon the street, who loafs at
the club, who finds all his enjoyment
in actual arrangement from scenes
where cluster the refining and elevat.
ing principles of his nature, may not
he on the road to actual ruin, but he
has already reached the goal OF a cold
selfishness, of n hardened Indifference,
of a monkish asceticism which Is
foreign to generosity, intelligence,
urbanity, and social existence.
This tendency to celibacy is the re-
suit OF false reasoning indulged in by
Young men. We will not be ungra-
cious enough to deny them the possess
sion of refined ssocial feelings, chaste
affections, or any of the qualities that
temper mans asperities and make him
fit to preside atthe holy communion of
the hearthstone. No, no: we will not
suppose him beast; for then TO reason
were impossible. But he reasons
wrongly. Hesays, am not ready 10
GET married" Mark that man! he
never will be. Few, the very fewest,
ever direct their energies TO preparing
for such an event. "A man cannot adapt
himself to the circumstances of the
married state SO long as he remains
single, He needs to feel the marriage
halter draw beioFe headdresses himself
to the changed mode of life, before he
begins to love in earnest, before he be-
gins to stay at home of nights before
he begins to economics. Before mar
rage he is great hulk, utterly at sea,
without anchor, a helpless prey to every
adverse wind and every sbutfeting
wave. Afterwards he is a noble ship,
securely moored, and able to laugh at
storms and tides. California, the States
Of the Pacific, and all the territories are
sending for mRrriageable ladies. The
want OF families and the absence of So
ciety are to them q curse. a tnonsano
marriage ceremonies would do more to
elevate the morals of such communities
than thousand sermons. They would
be more than church, or preacher, or
homIly; they wonld be law and order,
and safety, and wealth, and health, be-
sides. The marriage. tie has 80 proved
at all times and among all nations.

A Republican meeting was held in
the City Hall last night, which was ad-
dressed by j. Z. Bryant, formerly of
Maine, but now a member of the
Georgia Legislature, who referred with
pleasure to the fact that Georgia was
again in the union, and entitled to the
rights and privileges of any other
State. He said the Republican party
was defeated honestly and fairly in the
late municipal election. Resolutions
were passed pledging anew their fealty
to the Republican party, and opposing
further Congressional Interference in
the affairs OF Georgia, which State is
entitled to all the rights of a federal
State in the Union.
The citizens of Augusta gave COM
plimentary supper last night, to the

Sweeney, for their soldierly behavior
and general good conduct, while
stationed in this city. TIE people
speak in terms of commendatfon OF
Gen. Sweeney and his entire command.
