ARCTIC WEATHER ON THE HIssIs-
SIPPI.

The fearful cold weather of last month.
even in the South, is well illustrated by the
following account Of terrible journey per-
formed 0y Nj. Frank Hood and others, Of
st. Louis, on the steamer Great Republic:
After leaving the city, and when five miles
below Kennett's Castle, the boat grounded,
and it was found impossible to move her.
The coal on board was all consumed, and As
the steamer remained there nearly q week,
the passengers were at last left without food
or fuel. The weather became fearfully cold,
and the prospect gloomy. The floating les
prevented the passengers reaching the shore
seventy yards distant-and it seemed as IL /.
they must freeze or starve. At last the Ice
became sufficiently firm, and three OF the
passengers determined on attempting TO
reach the city. Mr.. Hood, q German
known as "Gus," and a stock dealer named
Bradford, started, reached the Illinois shore,
and began their long tramp toward st.
Louis. They passed q number Of farm
houses, but the occupants declined TO fur
nish them witha eonveyance, as the epizoo-
tic was still raging. They finally reached
Waterloo, where 1t was found that one Of
Bradford's ears was so badly frozen that
modification had already set in, and sur
geon cut off the greater part Of the ear.
The German had one foot 80 horribly freq
zen that ampUtation was considered neces-
sarv, and it was performed. Hood, who
was better protected than bis companions,
continued his journey toward st. Louis.
He finally arrived opposite Carondelet,
crossed the river, and took the Iron Noun
tain train for the city. Both Of bis feet
were frost-bitteD, but by giving them
prompt attention, and using the proper
remedies, be soon recovered.

AT the fair last year, in St. Louis, the
prize of 81 900 for the best bale of cotton
was awarded Mr.. John q. 7 eiser, of Jack
son, Mississippi. The bale was afterwards
sent TO Memphis, and won the first prize
there, and subsequently it appeared at
Jackson, where it also won the first pre-
MUM. Having thus been adjudged to be
the best bale OF cotton by three different
sets of judges, this lucrative bale was sold
by its owner for fifty cents pound, two
and half times the usual price, and thus
realized him in addition to the premiums
probably one thousand dollars. It's new
owner desiring to press its career of tri-
umph further, intends TO send this famous
cotton bale to tha Vienna Exposition, to
show the world assembled there what
Mississippi can do in the way of cotton rails
log.

THERE is an occasional smart youngster
in Bridgeport, Connecticut, q witness: A
policeman was instructed to look after the
boys who violated the city ordinance against
coasting in the streets. He presently saw
two boys preparing for "go," one of whom
got away, the policeman giving chase.
"Here!" said the other boy, stake my sled;
it will 60 faster than his'n, and will catch
yiml' In an instant the ambitious "peeler"
threw himself on the sled, and soon came
up with and arrested the offender. The
justice heard the testimony, and was about
TO infiict the tine, when the other lad pro-
tessed willingness to testify against the
officer for similar infraction of the law
ond so they both got of, with a solemn in
junction TO do so no more.
