The building for the ice factory on

posing appearance.
Miss Sarah Harper, who has been
visiting her sister, Mrs. Wheat, in Alex

From the present outlook in upper

The Floods.

ST. LOUIS. Mo-, April S.-Consider-
able rain fell in this section last night
and is drilling here to-day, but it will
have little effect on the rivers in the
way Of causing further rise. 1t is ex-
pected that the river at st. Louis and
above to st. Paul will change but little
for the next day or two. The Missouri
will continue to rise, as the result of
floods from above.
Dispatches from Bismarck, n. d.,
New Orleans, Jackson, Miss, and other
places still represent sad state of af-
fairs as result of the prevailing floods.
The destruction OF property has been
enormous, and in instances human lives
have been lost. In many places the
waters are still gradually rising, and
the greatest apprehension is felt.

The Kentucky scnatorship.

FRANKFORT, April S.-When the
roll was called in the joint legislative
session to-day the silver democrats de-
clined to answer to their names, hoping
that with the assistance of the boiling

break q quorum. In this they were
unsuccessful, the gold democrats an
swering with the Hunterites in order
to force the balloting, and the roll call
showed II present, one moro than
necessary to constitute quorum. I'm
able to prevent ballot, the silver men
voted for Blackburn when the ballot
was ordered, while the gold democrats
voted for the compromise candidate,
Henry L. Martin. A second ballot was

THURSDAY EVENING. APRIL s, 1857

EVEN THE sectional, erroneous and
nreiu6iced histories of the war between
the States written by Northern men
do not satisfy the malignant spirit OF
the partisan G. A. r. organization,
which is now making arrangements for
the publication of new one, which
shall state that the ex-Confederates
were rebels and traitors, and that there
was no good either in their cause OF III
anv of their most illustrious leaders IL
field or forum, which they demand
shall he substituted for the others now
in use in the schools of the North, as
ex-senator Edmunds said about the law
prohibiting ex-Confederates from hold
inq commissions in the U. S. army, ito
show which side was right" An an
ciept Grecian historian described the
Roman conquerors of his country as
demi.gods, and therefore Irresistible
nv mortals, so as to assuage the anguish
of his countrymen at their defeat; but
the object of that attempt to distort his
tory was commendable in comparison
with this malicious effort to incite the
children of the North to hate those OF
the men who live on this side ofthe 70
tomac. Before such history is pub
lished, it would be we'll for the writer
thereof to examine the text books
used in the U. S. Military Academy at
West Point up to 1861.

In THE fifth chapter of Genesis it is
stated that, "it repented the Lord that
he had made man." The result Of the
recent elections in the North and West
suggests to the unregenerate that it re-

publicans; but if such an idea should en-

Catholic or Protestant, who took the
