calls Thalbebo the “man who has held

Rout* to ItaH,
The San' Antonio-. Herald advocates
the " Boute ''through that place and
thence via El fhso and Santa bo, for dis
patching trodps and carrying on mili
tary operations against Utah. It says ;
This route, besides being nearer than
the Northern routes would possess tills
advantage, that it could he used at
seasons of the year when those routes
would be impassible by reaseni-of the
snow and ice through a large portion of
every year. We’ remember that this
Santa Fe route was highly spoken oi by
the party of Mormons who w ent over
it from this State to Ut«li soffit years

Warm Weather.—The extraordinary
mildness of this winter all over our con
tinent is a matter of astonishment with
the million.
It is accounted for as follows, by the
last philosophical theory, viz: That
: the Gulf Stream lias approached nearer
, toour coast by forty to sixty miles than
was ever known before.
We would like to 1 know what right
! the Gulf Stream has to get so familiar.

1 “The warm weather actually Origi
nates in spiritual causes resident in some
i newly and divinely energized condition
of the spiritual spheres enveloping oUr

The first railroad charter granted in
New York was granted to the Albany

soon after it was completed. The “John

J Mr. Wade did not consider the reso

! The only difference exists in the fact
that one is a greater robber than the

Mr. Giddings asked whether the gen

In January last the times here were
1 “ flush ” and the imports of foreign
merchandize at this port, for the first |
1 three weeks of it, amounted to $3,545,- J
' 462 January 1858 the times are com
' iminly understood to be not hush,—but
on the contrary, quite the reverse. Im
ports for first three weeks, $1,340,900,
Reduction, $1,804,502. This shows
what may be called a “healthy move
| raent” in the right direction. It shows
that we are cutting down our hill for
silks, satins, laces, and other luxuries,
I and that the McFlimscys are tak’ngin
I a big reef. It shows, too. that “Young
America” is buying less patent leather,
fewer foreign gold headed canes and kid
gloves, and manages to get “ glorious”
not so often on port and sherry. A mil
lion and a quarter retrenchment a
month, will soon enable them to pay
their debts.—iV. T Express.
Spain in Heroics.
Spain sends us across the ocean the
most insolent defiance, in terms of
the haughtiest contempt. No redress will
be allowed for the wrong offered to our
flag and people in the ease of the El Do
rado.* or anything else; and if Spain
had the formal pledges of France and
Fngland to sustain her, she could not
frame her refusal in more arrogant lan
guage. It is idle to evade or disguise
the fact—Spain intends todefv and in
sult the United States. She deems and
she styles us a mercenary tribe of tra
ders, “ a race of peddling Jews,” who,
in the often repeated language of her
court journals, “ think only of gain,and
have no sense of honor or morality to
make us hesitate at the vilest means to
acquire it.” — States.

ge Opinions of the Press.—
\Ve take plea urc in referring to tlie virtue of
navis’ Pain Killer. We have used the article
and found it valuable. The sale of this article in
the United States is beyond all precedent, as the
books of the oflice w ill show. —Cincinnati Com
mercial.
Davis’ Vbgktari.k Pain Kit.ter.—We first heard
of this medicine during a visitjto ihe : New Eng
land States, aud being struck with the novelty
of the title, were induced to make some inquiry
about it; and we wofe surprised to learn that it
was kept constantly in the houses of most of the
inhabitants of the cities and villages where we
stopped, to be used iu case of sudden attacks of
pain, burns, scalds, etc., aud we heard it spoken
of in terms of high commendation, both by
druggists and physicians.— Phil. Eagle.
Perry Davis' Pain Killer.— lt is a great plea
sure to us to speak favorably or this article
known almost universally to be a good and safe
remedy for barns and other pains of the’body,
it is valuable not enly for colds in the winter*-
lint fi r various summer complaints, and should
be jin every family. The casualty which de
mauds.it may conieunawares.— Chris. Adv.
Valuable Medicine.—She. sale of that reinark
abieand tnriv valuable preparation, Perry Davis
Pain Killer, is constantly and rapidly increasing,
i Miring the past.ysar, ,tho demand for tlm great'
remedy has In-eu altogether unprecedented.
Scarcely a weok passes by duriug which we do
not bear or some remarkable cure having been,
performed, within the circle of our acquaintance
by the use of ‘‘Perry Davis’ Pain Killer.’— Paw,
