Power OF MAN TO ENDURE,
Co1D.-One who took part in tel
egraphic expedition in Siberia
writes as follows: "I didn't believe
that it would be possible for me to
lie out in the snow. without shelter,
in temperature of even 20 degrees
below zero, but I have done it once
in so degrees below, and repeatedly
lin As degrees. One of Bush's par
ties, in February of last year, passed
the night on an open, barren steppe,
with their spirit thermometer
standing 78 degrees below zero, or
100 below the freezing point.
Quicksilver they nodded into solid
bullets with four minutes exposure
to the air. It is true they dared
not 60 to sleep that night, but I be-
Iieve that, had they been properly
fitted out with heavy furs and wolf
s in sleeping bags to tie over the
head, they might have done it with
perfect safety. I'm afraid you
would think that I was availing
myself of a travellers privilege, and
relating very large yarn, if I told
you how comfortably I have slept
on the snow in temperature OF ~
degrees, 40 degrees, and IS degrees
below. We are obliged to sleep in
fur bags, of course, with our faces
entirely covered, to take the utmost
care to have our fur stockings per-
fectly dry; but I have slept in that
way through the long Arctic nights
as comfortably as ever I did in bed
at home"

Stabbing ARRAY at Warrington

('TOm the West VirginlAn)
For some time past, certain parties, re-
sidents OF Warrington, TO the pubic un'
known have been issuing and posting
around town small paper, under the
title OF Creased Lightning, in which there
were various personal notices OF citizens
OF the GEOGRAPHICALLY, tho young men;
for some time, the paper was conducted
without material cause for oitense, and
afforded considerable amusement: but lat
terly, its prOprietOrs have been INDUCING
in various exceedingly insulting refer
ences 10 certain citizens Of the commu-
nifty, among them the KOon brOtheTs-ol
whom there are four or five reading In the
town. On Saturday one oil the brothers
approached Charlie McCTHy, q saddler,
who has for some time been In bust
ness in Warrington, (alsO well known
in FAirmont, having served an Sppren'
tiCeship with Mr.: ]. r. snider, Of this
place. and accused him Of being the au-
thor OF the Objectionable matter referred
10; hard words ensued, which cul-
minated In personal encounter between
tho two. Young McMaSters hearing OF
the disturbance, ran to the scene (as nc
claims to separate tho oombAtAnts; DIT
another Of the Koon brothers, VINO was
present, mistaking his intention, knocked
AicblastGrs down; Jumping up, McMAs-
tors drew a knife, and KO0n again at
tempting to strike him, McM Masters stabbed
him-Cutting him six different times IN
rapid succession. Koon was cut twice IN
the right arm, once in the lett arm, twice
In the back, and once In the side, before
the bYstAndefs could Interfere. None Of
the wounds arc dangerous, though It is
said that had not the knife struck rib,
the blow aimed at his side would have
proved instantly, fatal. DR.. YOust was
summoned, and dressed the wounds, and
we learn the injured man will speedily
recover.
McMaslers came into the room during
the operation Of dressing the wounds, and
while standing near, one Of the Koon
boys addressed him and inquired what
he was doing there. He replied that he
was there because he had right 10 be,
whGreupon the injured man jumped 10
his feet and Selling large, heavy lorna
mental bottle, standing near, he threw II
at McSIasters, md only missed him be-
cause he lodged; had McMasters been
struck by the missile the blow would
doubtless have killed him instantly; as it
was, tho bottle glanced and smashed a
show case in the room.
In tho first aiTray, from which the other
originated, MeCray and Koon were sep
arated before much damage was inflicted
upon either. ..-

From tho West VirGInianl ....g
Our opinion is that Governor Jacob

much his duty not to do 80 as twas for
MIN 10 take the oath OF office alter bis
election. He was chosen to the position
he occupies by the people tor the very
mission which hO SO well eviBCes his
ability to perform; and while We have
not the slightest doubt OF his reelection
over any other man in the Staie-eyen
by much larger majority than before
we do not think It n necessary proceed
ing. He enjoys full measure Of the
confidence OF the people, by whom, Of
course, he Is fully sustained; and any
movement such as that suggested by
our Wheeling contemporary, au'suttclent
TO the end in view as 1t would doubtless
be-is still unnecessary; because the GOV
ernor has already the assurance that his
services in defense Of the Treasury and
the rights Of his constituents are fully api

We quoted, yesterday, the provision OF
the Constitution requiring an election to
be held on the occasion Of vacancy in
the gubernatoriGl Office any time during
the first three years OF the term. Refer
ring to the Code, We find no statutory
provision which would carry this consti'
iutional requirement into effect. The pro-
vision in the Code was made with refer.
ence to the old Constitution, which con-
tains no such clause as that referred to in
the present one. The Code simply pro-
vides that when q vacancy occurs in the
office Of Governor, the office shall devolVC
on the President OF the Senate. There
has been no legislation that we are aware
OF since the adoption Of the new Consti-
tuition to provide for the holding OF IN
election to ill vacancy in the office
OF Governor, rs the Constitution re-
quircs. Under such circumstances, the
acting Governor, il he did lot wish
an election to be held, or wished
to postpone it, would be very like
ly to make the absence of any statn-
utory directions an excuse for declining
to order IN election. With Col. DAN.
JOHNSON in the GubernNtorial chair and
with such advisers rs he would have and
the probability thatil an election were
held it would go against them, we are
obliged to conclude that il Governor
JAcon should resign on election would
not be ordered, and that by such means
the object Of suCh resignation would be
defeated. II, therefore, it is true, as it
seems to be, that there is no legislative pro.
vision Tor this election, we arc bound, in
the lace OF such fact to modify the opin.
ion expressed couple Of days ago about
thesuggesled resignation Of the Governof
with view to an election and by means
OF it to an appeal OF the issue between the
Governor and Legislature to the people.
