IT.. C.le-HisSsck Case.

!, now seems highly probable that
n. trial of General COLE for the mur'
5.-of L. u. HIsCOCK will be COM
..,ced in the Oyer and Terruiper
=, Albany, to-day, provided a jury can
/. obtained. The 1rgaS says all tue
illnesses in behalf of tue prosecution,
,mouuting to some twenty in Syracuse
,na Rochester, besides those residing
IN Albany and vicinity, have been al
,sady subpGnaed to appear in Court
to-day. Mrs. YALE ANDERSON and Miss
MARTHA GRAHAM, of Syracuse, both
,;,pr.,es for the defence, have
,,r,ptly died. The trial OF the
,,,e was once postponed, chiefly on
an affidavit alleging the absence, on
account of illness, of Mrs. ANDERSON,
whose testimony Was sworn to be i'm
portant. She was a neighbor of Gen
CoLE's. while Miss GRAHAM was dress
maker, who had been employed In his
family. The trial will excite consider
aJle interest, not only where the par
lies resided, and where the tragedy was
enacted. but throughout the country
The social and political position of the
parties, the peculiar circumstances that
led 10 the homicide, the manner III
which it was accomplished, and the EN-
uent ability OF the counsel engaged, al
tsnd to invest the case with features
thai will make it one of the most cele'
brated causes in the criminal annals OF
this country.

uhither TendiaR

Que part of the Radical policy in the
South is to keep alive, and to intensity
if possible, the evil and acrimsniOus
feeling engendered by the war and by
the political condition of the county
since. To do this every act of lawless-
ness, every outrage Oh personal rights,
every insult which transpires, is as
eribed to a political cause and is made
the food of more bad feeling. Those
composing the late rebel element are
represented as being filled with malice
aOd thirstns for blood, aud are held
responsible for everything which occurs
when "Uniou man" is involved. No one
can commit crime now, according to
their reports and representations except
rebel; aud the consequence is that the
feelings of the ignorant portion Of the
Radical party are inflamed, and they
stand ready to take offence where none
was intended, and to seek difficulties
which are not rendered OF desired. This
is the way in which much of the disor-
der Of which we see accounts through
ont the South, is produced. Lying
newspaper correspondents also add fuel
to the flames by misrepresenting what
ever does occur and much that does
lot. 1t is useless to hope for public
harmony or healthy condition ofsociety
so long as these practices are continued.
Ita man has quarrel about business
with his neighbOr, and believing him
@lf wronged indulges in violent Ian
guage which brings on difficulty, the
politics of neither of the men is a mat.
ter of any consequence in narrating the
particulars of tue affair; yet such exas-
peratiug statements are now scarcely
ever emitted. Whether the wiser pol.
leyof cOnciliation and forbearance will
ever be adopted by our people and good
feeling be restored or not God only
knows, but it is certain that the South
srn people are now drifting rapidly to.
ward anarchy and a carnival of blood.

At the outbreak of the late war many
postmasters in the Southern States had
in their offices stamps OF funds of con-
siderable value, which were seized by
the Confederate goversment and OF
which no further account has since been
rendered to the Department at Wash,
ington. The United States government
has commenced all over the South ac-
tiens at law to recover its claims. In
Virginia, during the past month, suits
have been instituted against nearly one
hundred of the delinquents. Among
these we notice the name of Colenel
Thomas P. Bigger, late Postmaster at
Richmond, whose liabilities to the gov,
srnment amount to nearly Sl3 900, and
the government has even gone so far as
to attach his property and that OF his
sureties, Messrs. Charles w. Purcell and
Joseph Allen, both of that city.

A ysung man named Mailon, an en-
ploye of the Milwaukee and MinneaP-
oils Railway, was instantly killed last
Friday, near Faribault, in the following
peculiar manner: When leaving Dun
das he took seat upon the pilot of the
locomotive. A few miles below Dundas,
q COW standing on the track was
struck by the engine and killed, crush
ing Madison to death at the same in
slant. The fact was not discovered un-
til some time had elapsed, when the en-
ginesr discovered dark object dang
ling from the pilot, and supposing it to
be portion Of the COW resting upon
the engine, requested the fireman to 60
forward and throw it off, and going out
for that purpose, he was shocked at
finding Mailson's dead body.

A Wouder of Nature.

Ihe California correspondent of the
Milwaukee Sentinel gives the following
account of wonderful discovery which
has Just been made in the State: A
vein OF very curious rock has recently
Oeen discovered in FL Dorado County,
which as yet has failed to elicit from
Ine scientifically inclined any satisfac-
Tory explanation. Several large slabs
nave been taken out and are now on
exhibition in this city. Its peculiarlity
mat 1t represents landscape drawings
Wfsught by the hand of nature thous-
ands OF years perhaps, before the advent
Si man upon this mundane sphere.
AoGntain scenery is here portrayed
;;aenaceable tablets by a peerless draw
auy master, representing, in variegated
oVlors, bold and rugged peaks rising
Sue above another and descending in
pong rolling ridges of billy country.
tpAtren rocks, trees, and msnzanita
.sn yiusn In profusion give variety to
ne 'Ie pictures, but nowhere is to be foand
snat essential requisite to a complete
IOe9ie picture-a mountain stream.
anu mere 1t would seem that even so
amStchiess an artist as nature has actu-
sy Olundered. Another singularity of
.I .hls rock is that the pictures extend
through the entire vein, 50 that, cat in
Tuty direction, it cannot be destroyed.
-. ne eoloring is Of dull, heavy charae-
San vi, consisting mainly of grades of red,
:euow, and black-seen at little dis
%uee they resemble merely rude out
ra nue pencil drawing. No geological sa-
to SIt mas favored Us with an opinion as
~ Tue cause and manner of their forma-
;on. The action of water and refec-
non ron IN some as yet underlined way is the
IsS US. plausible hypothesis advanced. 1t
.c sa' gwen rise to q Photographic Land
sIape Rock Company who design ship
pug TO the Atlantic States and Europe
~ ,tsaples for exhibition. There is GER
may any no deception abont it, and it
ley Justly be classsd as the eighth
"Saser Of the world.
