A barge or float, supposed to con-
tain som ething over 1000 bushels OF
coal, belonging to Mr.. Duvol, of
Diamond Lime Works, Kentucky,
was sunk by ''tronghing" in the
waves opposite Clifton, on Monday
afternoon last. Mr. D., was alone
on board, and when the boat went
down he clung to the steering oar
when that came off the barge he
foated with it, until by his crying
for help, persons came from the Vir-
ginia shore and rescued him. When
brought ashore, he was nearly speech
less from the cold.

pG~ Steamers were plenty at our
wharf last Thursday night. There
were seven tied to the wharf-boats
at one time. The weight came near
being to much for the fastenings of
the wharf boats. One of the head
lines parted, and it was feared, at
one time, that all, both steamers and
wharfboats, would go down the
river. But, by timely and energetic
work, new fastenings were provided,
and all made secure.

The Legislature.

This body met on Tuesday. The
Cincinnati Commercial makes some
timely suggestions in connection
Herewith. 1t says:
It ought to be useful session.
There are no political intrigues afoot;
ne partisan policy to be shaped; no
Offices of any importance to be filed.
There is nothing to distract the at
tention Of the members of the Cen
eral Assembly from the primary du-
ties devolving upon them as the
representatives of the people chosen
to wisely legislste for them.
We trust that attention win be
given to the suggestions of the Gov
erners message, and particularly to
those embraced in its concluding
paragraphs. We are confident that
they did not originate in any parti-
san feeling. The Governor is anxi-
Gus to preserve the purity of the
ballet box in Ohie, so that at all
elections there shall be full and fair
expression of the popular will. The
official representation of minorities
at the election boards will be an as
surance that no great fraud will be
committed by either party without
knowledge and protest. Such rep
resentation will go far, also, to stop
complaints of irregularities, and
quiet suspicious of foul play where
all the judges are of one political
faith.
A registry law, it seems to US,
might be devised that would put an
end to colonization In close districts
Were every voter required to regis
ter ten or twenty days before the
election. the lists to be Kept open to
the inspection o: the public, there is
not a voting precinct in the State
where it would not be possible to as
certain by election day who is or
who is not entitled to vote in it
Rightly devised. such law would
protect every honest citizen, and
only exclude from the ballot those
WAC. by the general election law, are
declared to ne unqualified.
There is no Doubt th at corruption
and frau prevailed at the late cleo
tIons more extensively than hereto
fore While no specific cases have
been made out, as vet, still there is
he general conviction among men OF
both parties that illegal expedients
we're resortea to in doubtful districts.
md with result, sometimes, that
will encourage larger frauds, unless
he Legislature intervenes, and. by
stringent measures, puts a check
lpon them.

N Senator MORTON, of Indiana,
has replied to Mr. GREELEY's letter,
on specie payments, and concludes
his response as follows:
''The fact ia, our boDdholders IN
derstand perfectly well :hst whatever
may be the Law on the question, the
bonds, or any considerable part of
them, cannot be paid in coin while
the currency remains deprecated,
That it is folly to talk about paying
the bonds in gold if the Government
cannot procure gold enough where
with to redeem the greenbacks; that
the redemption of notes and return
to specie payments is necessary
condition precedent to the payment
of the bonds in gold, and they look
much more to the return to specie
payments and the establishment of
our finances on solid bases than to
the mere form of the contract as to
how they shall be paid. Gold pay
ments should begin with the debt
that is due { which is the currency,)
and not by shaving bonds that will
not be due for IA years. The cur
rency lies at the foundation of the
whole financial structure, and if it
be unsound the structure above must
be insecure and dangerous. When
it becomes good by being made con-
vertible into gold the National debt
may be funded, by which enc third
of the present volume of interest can
be saved, and the nation will carry
the burdens with an ever-increasing
ease until its final discharge shall
come"

Special Dispatch to the Cincinnati Gazette !
ST.. LOUIS, January 3.
There are now thirty-eight English
Radical papers in the State that ear
nestly advocate the election of Gen.
Schurz to the United States Senate,
and ten German papers against thir-
teen for General Loan, five for Colonel
Renjamins, two for Gilmore, two for
Judge Vale, two for Henderson, and
one for Gov. Fletcher-25 in all. In
formation from all parts of the State
shows that General Schurz is the first
choice of very large majority of the
Radical party, and that he will go into
caucus with every probability of re-
ceiving the nomination; but, should he
fail there, his election is as good as
certain, for he is the second choice of
nearly all the friends of the other aspi-
rants, and after it becomes evident that
neither of them can be elected, and such
a fact will speedily disclose itself, they
will combine and give the General an
overwhelming majority. Senator Drake
and Gen. Loan are now at jefferson
City mastering their forces for the fight,
and while there will undoubtably be
lively time, the result in General
Sthurz's favor is almost as certain as
can be.

AN IOWA GRACE DARLING.

On Tuesday evening last, two boys about
sixteen years Of age each, named respect

Davenport in an old, lesky, dilapidated
skif, to take a ride below the city. When
between Maple and Willow Islands, the boat
commenced filling with water, and in spite
of all the efforts of the occupants to bail it
out, began to settle under rapidly. The
boys became alarmed, and in their excited
exertions, upset the frail craft. The daugh
ter of a fisherman living on Mill street, in
that city, discovering their perilous situa.
ton, ran down to the river, pressed small

died boldly to the rescue. She arrived not
moment too soon. One of them was
clinging to the upset craft in an exhausted
condition, while the other was some distance
of, with nothing to support him but one of
abe oars. The brave girl, with great pres
ence of mind, assisted them safely into her
boat, and then padded them ashore, even
bringing their boat with her. She is q gen.

ROCKFORD, ROCK ISLAND AND ST. LOUIS
RAILROAD.

A meeting Of the citizens of Warren and
Mercer counties was held at Monmouth on
the 18th inst for the purpose Of a conference
with Judge ureen relative to the construc

Judge Green addressed the meeting at
lrmgth, or.o,, s.,ng nh ,,"oo>;>-~ p-aaartad
and finally stated that the road would be
extended through those counties, if the right
Of way be granted, and the following did be
accorded: Fifty-tour thousand dollars on
the completion Of each six miles Tor throuh
each township of each of the counties. 1t
being understood that the payments need
not be made any faster than the iron is laid
and completed through each township of six
miles. As fast as fifty four thousand dol
lars is paid the Railroad Company shall is.
sue full paid stock to the township or county
entitled to the same.
This proposition was followed by remarks
from various prominen: citizens.
j. G. Madden moved that committee be
appointed to confer with the citizens of the
several townships, and ascertain the amount
each township will subscribe as stock to the

necessary to grade, bridge and tie the road
through the county be voted by the county

The motion was carried, and the Com.

The maid who binds her warriors SASH
EsWith smile that well her pain dissembies'
The while beneath her dropping LASH
One starry tear.drop hangs and trembies,
Though Heaven alone records the tear,
And Fame shall never know her story,
Her heart has shed q drop as dear
As Ger believed the field Of glory
The wife who girds her husbands sword,
Mid little ones who weep or wonder,
And brayely speaks the cheering word,
What though her heart be rent asunder,
Doomed nightly 10 her dreams to hear
Tho bolts Of death around him rattle,
Hath sled as sacred blood as o'cr
Was poured upon the field Of battle
The mother who conceals her grief
While 10 her breast her son she presses.
Then breathes few brave words and brief,
Kissing the patriot brow she blessed,
With no one but her secret God
To know the pain that weighs upon her,
Sheds holy blood as e'cr the sod
Received on Freedoms field Of honor.
