temperature was a low rs thirty degr ,es
below zero. 1t was done, it need not be
said, with difficulty, and often by install

self, or went into our quarters for
warmth. Several times | ;inued IN

swclled up nearly to The top of my head,
and | was always afraid that my prom =
| nent nasal organ would get bitten.
The effect of intense cold on our
stores i'm the magazine was avery inter-
estipg study; our dried apples were Il
mass of rock, and had to be smashed up
with an axe, our mOlasse5 formed q
thick, black paste, and no knife we had
would cut a slice of ham from the bone
till it was well thawed in our warmer
room. Our preserved meats would, with

uneaten, for a month or longer period

was no fear of their getting too "hiylih

no wind blew or snow fell during the

cold as much as at many other times.
Meantime the barometer rose rapidly,
and stood at sli chilly above 30 inches on
our cCldest day.

Dear transcript :
| have just noticed letter of "G."
published, correcting former letter of
mine, sent to you.
| am glad of an opportunity to ack''
nowledge the correction, for although
the island described may be the Belle
Isl, of fact, it is not the Belle Isle of
history, and not the island on which
our prisoners, later than the Spring of
1867, were confine The e neral des-
cription of locations by &C. is mainly
correct; yet, notwithstanding the re-
markable breach of courtesy BY "G." in
charging name that writer did not
assume, 1 will still ,all attention to some
errors of "G.'s", viz:
lst. :. he magnificent bridge re fer
rcd to is weak wooden structure, of
such character that your correspondent
must, in due regard for his per, onal
safety, be excused from taking the adj

Gov. Wise should or rage scorn, and
ridicule more, with less words than
your print requires.
Col. TomplSins may love the old play,
but NE should love the old flag a ain.
Judge U..derw God has little white
hond, but TIE ancient foX-tail appended
to the judic al chin can hardly be called

do not call attention to these errors
so much with the Cesire Of correcting
them as to pave the way for prayer to
those of your rea lcrs who have hitherto
been saved from the penalties of disci-
phering my handwriting, out of the
abundance of their charity, to have mer-
cy on the printer.
1t might be inferred from my torme
letter that the Executive Mansion was
the former residence of Davis. 1t was
the Governors house. The President of
the so-called Confederate States lived in

ing on high bluff, and commanding a
magnificent view of the great plains

How A MAN MADE $4O,OOO.-A gen.
tleman of Hartford, Conn, who is re-
ported to be quite wealthy, but who gen.
orally gives do indication of that fact in
his dress, recently made $40, 900 in New
York city in the following manner:
"He was attending the mon hly auc-
ton sales of coal in New York city, and
H. ade the first offer. The coal dealers
and Others present, thinking from his APP
pearance that he could not want ovel
fifty tons, did not bid against him but,
to the surprise of all, he took the whole
amount, which was several thousand
tons. The purchasers at these coal
auctions are required to pay ten pc.
cent. at the time of tie sale, or else give
references, as guaranty that tleir pur-
Oh ases will be removed. When asked
for his references, this Hartford man e.
quested the auctiOneer to 60 with him to
the Park Bank. The other persons who
were at the sale believed that the affair
must be hoax, and therefore followed
them to the bank, from which the pur-
chaser drew and gave the required ten
per cent. Those who h d followed him
then endeavored to buy from him the
coal or part of it, and it is said the re-
suit was that he sold his pure lase as it
stood for 10000, the buyer paying the
remaining sum due for it,"

GEN. GRANTS POsITION.--The WASH
ington correspo dent of the Tribune
s,ys that Gen. Grant does not avoid nor
decline interviews with prominent gem
tlemen who wish to converse with him
on tie Cabient or any other subject.
He receives all, seems anxious to he in
formed of various views, to weigh care
fully all opinions advanced, and gives
respect to those especially, whose POSI-
ton in the larty W, ich elected him,
entitled them to consideration. 1t il
well understood ere that his princi al
reason for Withholding from all, even
from the gentlemen themselves, tn,
names of those whom he intends % in
wife to seats in his Cabinet, is that it is
possible that in some of the many inter
views he daily holds, something may
be said which might induce him to
chang, hi, mind; and his silence will
enable him to do this without giving Of
fence, or wounding susceptibilites. II
he should announce the membe.s of his
Administration now, he would be COM
pellet, even if he saw a reason Tor a
change, either to break promise after
IL was given, or to retain a man in hs
Cabinet whom he was to see there. Sc
far from his action being otfensive--as
the enemies of the General and Repub-
lican party would have us believe-it is
regarded here as coming from absolute
delicacy toward those most concerned
