That eminent agricuturist and
granger, Brer, Fielder, of the Clinton
Banner, thus delivers himself to his
farmer friends:
Planting time is rapidly approach
ing. Are we farmers ready for IT,?
Have we repaired all our fences?
Are all the grubs and sprouts dug
up and burned? The fence corners
cleaned out? The logs. are they all
burned or hauled of, and is the new
ground ready for the pillow? Have we
made and put in place all the rails
and boards we ueed2 Are oar
dwellings and outhouses all in good
repair? Or have we been doing
nothing at all since we gathered our
crops but to complain about hard
times? If we farmers would pay the
same close and unremitting atten,
ton TO our business that merchants,
bankers, editors and other business
men are compelled to do, mortgages
would cease and Hard Times would
take his everlasting flight.

THE IMMIGRANTS.
The Parts Of the Country the Foreigners
are Going Into.

A gentleman connected with the i'm
migration bureau in New Work city re-
ports that the bulk Of the MY arrivals at
Castle Garden who are destined for tarm
life are taking southern course. 1.-Two
years ago. said this gentleman, "all i'm
migration was to the West and Northwest.
Thousands after thousands went to Ne
braska, Kansas, Dakota and Wyoming,
bent on taking up Government land The
first indications OF change were seen last
year, when they turned toward Texas. One
reason for the change is the fact that near
ly all the Government land now open for
homestead is in the coolest climate in the
country. Another reason is the rapacity
Of the land grabbers and holders OF land
grants, and rise in the low prices. This
year, as a result, we are sending ajoritv
OF all new comers to the South and South
west. A majority OF them go to Texas,
and few to Arkansas, Louisiana and
Southern Kansas, while others are push
ing the line OF higher civilization over into
Arizona and Southern California"
"What is the general character OF these:
isnmigr;.nts:'
.'Ihev are an Industrious, hard workin :
set, mostly from sca,'liinavis and So"th~
ern Europe. They ali have a s'nallanount
OF money witt, which to make u start, l''t'
the result Will be, think, exceedingly y
beneficial to the territory in which they
locate. Several Gem colonies VII. be

RENIORSELESS REVENGE.
An Injured Husband Wipes the Guilty
Pair Out of Existence.

a dreadful tragedy was discovered on
April 24th at No. 40, Orange street, New
Orleans, when the police broke into the
house on information that there was some
thing wrong there. Upon the bed lay two
lifeless bodies. They were those Of Mrs.
Amelia Evans, wife Of William Evans, a
member of Farreps police, and Casper
Wenger, a grocery clerk. On the right
side of the woman's head, just above the
eye, was an ugly wound from which the
brain protruded. The bullet which caused
the death Of the man entered the left tenn
pie and passed completelythrough the head.
At the inquest that afternoon Evans was
arrested. He said in substance that he came
home at the usual hour in the morning,
from his work of watching all night. lie
went to his wife's bedroom and there saw
her and a man lying on the bed, dead, just
rs they were found. He picked his child up,
a baby of nine months old, and walked out,
locking the door and leaving the key in the
lock. lie called the servant, Mamie Miller,
ans! gave the child to her and went out.
The servant girl gave such cvasivc answers
that her arrest was ordered. The theory
about the killing is that Evans had an ink
ling o. his wit's in'i,i>litv, came home that
morning earlier than usual. surprised them
probably asleep and shot them both. The
pillow where each head lay is powder burnt.

TIN, BANKRUPTCY BILL.
Hopes Entertained that the Next Congress
will Pass the lsiil.

\ gentleman connected with The trade
much Interested in the bankruptcy bill last
winter SAYS that Mr.. Collins is very hope
full OF the passage Of q bill similar to that
frustrated by Judge Lowell, at the next
session Of Congress. For two years, or
ever since he entered Congress, Mr.. Collins
has had one ambition, and that is the pas
sage Of a law regulating bankruptcy. At
present ne is at his home in Boston, and is
devotng every minute that he can spare
from mis- law business to thorough can
vass by mail Of the sentiment of the next
House. There is no doubt that, upon
square vote, the bill would have passed
any day last session. The trouble was that
square vote could never be had. The
only method OF securing vote on the bill
that its friends had was by moving to sus.
pend the 10Th of May, but owing to the
absence of many friends of the measure,
the necessary two.thirds vote could not be
secured on that day. Then Sam Randall
entered the lists against the bill, and eacl,
time that Mr.. Collins attempted to bring
the question TO vote he was opposed by
Randall and the session closed without a
fair test of its strength. Mr.. Collins is re-
ported to have said that his correspond
ence thus far has demonstrated that OF the
sixty new members at least forty have sig

no reply to his communications. Those
who have been balked in every attemp: a
legislation by the prepostcrous rule Of thu
last Congress are determined that Mr. Ran
dali shall not rule the next House. II the,
stick to their present determination bank
ruptcy bill will be enacted before the sun,

WASHINGTON, April, -, 1855.
To Hon. 4. Il. Lazvton, tSaluuuah, Ca:
MY DEAR SIR: l regret exceedingly
that for any reason the Administration is
70 be deprived of your honorable and val
liable services in the mission to Russia.
The opinion of the Attorney General upon
the question Of your disability under the
Fourteenth amendment to the Constitu-
ton was so completely satisfactory, and SO
removed from my mind all doubt as to
your eligibility, that upon reading it at
once dedided to ask you to accept the po-
sition, and learn from the Secretary of
State that he telegraphed you to that ef-
feet; but, it seems, that your letter of the
18th was then on its way, which was fol-
lowed by one of the 18th reatlir,ning your
decision. l sincerely regret this deter
mination on your part, SO unseltishly
urged and SO patriotically expressed and,
whilst l must reluctantly accept it as the
announcement Of your deliberate desire,
and personal wish, I can but ieei that the
country is greatly the Lesser by it.
With sincere regard and high respect, |
am your obcdient servant,
tSiencd): GROVER CIl1N'EI-A\U.

COLORADO'S AvAIANCHl;.
Eleven Men are Buried Under !. Mount
ain of SNOW.

The rcscuing party which left Lcadville
early on April 18th for the scene of the
terrible calamity at the llomcstake mine
reached its destination at o'clock. Sew
cral excavations were made before the
cabins could be located. The first one
found contained provisions, etc. No bodies
were found there. The bunk house wa,
next reached and ecveu bodies were found.
One body stood erect with head thrown
forward, lis il listening, the whole position
indicating apprehcn,io Near him lay
one OF his companions in Il bunk, face
downward and arms crossed under the
head. Several logs lay on the body. Three
bodies were found in an upper bunk
claspcd in each others arms, land so strong
ly were they intcrlockcd as to require the
efforts ot six men to separate them. One
man WAS found beside his bunk in an at
titu,dc OF PRAYER. In another parl OF the
cabin were two bodies crushed between
lying about the cabin as is thrown from the
hunks by the shock. Owing to the fact
that all of the faces were covered with
half an inch of white mold the features
could not be recognized. No doubt death
was caused by sutfocation in nearly every
case. \ clock and watch were found
which had stopped precisely at $500. From
letters and papers found it is believed the
slide occurred between the Goth and 18TH
Of February. The report that some of the
men had been seen a fortnight ago proves
to be without foundation. The bodies were
brought to Leadville. The victims are
Martin Borden, Sylvester Borden, Horace
w. Matthews, Joseph Matthews, John
Dock, John Burns, Charles Richards, Chris
Harvey, Robt. Campbell and John Burns.

IMMENSE COIN TRANSFER.
*35,OOO,OOO to he Sent from Frisco to q
New York.

The Secretary Of the Treasury has un-
der consideration several propositions for
the transportation of large amount of
gold coin from the sub. Treasury at San
Francisco to the sub Treasury at New
York. The transportation of about $751;
100000 gold coin is contemplated. Con-
gress at its last isession appropriated $780,
900, which was made Immediately avail
able, for the transportation Of this gold.
The rates submitted by the express COM
panies for this work are all in excess Of the
estimates made when the appropriation
was asked. 1t was estimated that the gold
could be transported at the rate of apc.SO
per ST 900. The lowest bid made by the
express companies, however is Ss..5 per
ST., 900. In addition to bids from express
companies, there is one from the Pacific
Mail Steamship Company, which offers to
make the transfer at luuch reduced rate.
The exact terms proposed by the steam
ship company are not known. The reason
for the transfer is to relieve the vaults of
the San Francisco sub b-Treasury, which are
taxed to their utmost capacity, and also to
have the gold in New Y ork, where it would
be more needed in case Of sudden de-
mand. 1t is expected that the Secretary
will decide on the method OF transporta-
tion in a few days.
