A letter from Mr. Edward Peters,

i dated January 30th, 1858, says:
,1 ‘-We have had thus far the sevell
j winter that has ever occurred in CIH

! oldest inhabitant. The snow is monl
. than two feet deep on a level, and ha*
,| been almost continually falling for thirl
jty day's. Yesterday Mr. Brown and my*
II self achieved an exploit which has nevl
si er before been accomplished in this

i tion, and has fixed our names as enter
' | prising Americans. During the late
• | war some one imported a sleigh made in
|.| Albany, which has been here ever since
on sale. We got it and fixed it up, put
1 two spanking black horses before it,

the Grand Turks at the Sublime Porte.

The Capture ol* Yell,
y The London Times publishes an in
r teresting letter from its correspondent
at Canton, from which we make the
i following extract, describing the eap
. ture of the Chinese Emperor, Yell :
The longest chase must have an end.
, At last the guides called a halt at the
door of a third-rate yamun, which ap
peared closed and deserted. ‘ The door
■ were forced open and the blue jackets
were all over the place in a moment. It
was evident that they were now on the
right scent. The place was full of has
tily packed baggage. Mandarins were
running about, yes, running about; and
at last one came forward and delivered
himself up as Yell. But lie was not fat (
enough. Parkes pushed him aside, and
hurrying on, they at lastspied a very fat
j man contemplating tlje achievement of
getting over the wall at the extreme ,
rear of the yamun. Captain Key took
the fat gentleman round the waist, and
the coxswain twisted the august tail of
the Imperial Commissioner round his
fist. There was no mistake now, this
was the veritable Yeh. Instinctively
j the blue jackets felt it must be Yeh,
and they tossed up their liats and gave
three rattling cheers.
j. Yeh is by no means the hero people
. thought him. He trembled violently
' when he was taken, hut strenuously de
• nied his identity, and it was not till Mr.
3 Parks had several times had the satis
faction and triumph of assuring his old
enemy of his personal safety that he
1 grew composed. As soon, however, as
he felt himself safe, all his arrogance
.. returned. He poised himself magnifi
cently in his chair. He laughed at the
idea of giving up his seals, and also at
the idea of his being led away. He
would wait there to receive the men,
- Elgin and Gros.
( They searched all his packages for
papers, and found, among other things
’ the original ratifications of the treaties
f with England, France and America;
they were, as he intimated, too unim
portant as documents to be sent to Pe
" kin. The search lasted three hours.—

to headquarters; Col. Hocker was dis
patched with a strong body of marines,

A Kccklcgg Man.
i A man named Bill Far was killed on
last Christmas day, at Tehama, Califor
nia. Bill was a notable character in his
way. The Red Bluffs Beacon says of
him :
Our readers will remember an adver
tisement that appeared in our paper last
spring, stating that Bill Farr would
I light a grizzly bear, single handed, on
the 4th of July, at Tehama, rfis life (
I seemed to be of no consequence to him. f
■ VVe have frequently heard him remark ,
that he would as soon he killed as not; (
and on one occasion we actually knew ,
of his standing up very coolly witli a ,
person as reckless as himself, each tak- (
ing a shot at the other's lmt at a dis- ]
tance of fifty steps, as it remained on ,
his head. The result was that Bill’s!
bat was shot through, and a small bunch! j
of hair cut away, while the skin on the j,
other man's cranium was laid bare for ,
three or four inches by Bill's half-ounce; j
ball. Bill was a great terror to the In-,,
dians, he having killed a great many in j;
his time, some of whom, as he saidjj
himself, he shot to see them fall.

Virtues of tire “Mail Slnmi-'-t'au it
Perform Cures i
Several wonderful stories of the cures
performed by a “mad stone” belong
ing to a family in Cleves, Ohio, are re
lated by those who are conversant with
the Riatter. It is a small sized stone,
of a porous texture, and, it is said, will
not adhere to any other tlesh wounds
than those made by the bite of an ani
mal that is mad. Those who have
seen it assert that it sucks itself full,
and then, like the leach, falls off. The
virus matter is then extracted from the
stone by boiling it in milk. A large
circle of persons have the utmost con
fidence in the curative properties of this
stone, and several have come long dis
tances, when bitten or wounded by ani
mals supposed to be mad, to apply it,
not to the wound itself hut to another
made for the purpose in the part effect
ed. Several remarkable cures are rela
ted, but how well attested we do not
know.
Last week a farmer named John
Brown, residing near Harrison, cut
himself in the hand while skinning a
cow and a calf that had died under such
peculiar manifestations as to lead to the
supposition that they were made The
wound did not heal readily, and Mr.
Brown made a trip to Cleves to try the
virtues of the “ mad-stone.” A wound
was made iu the hand adjoining the
original cut, and the stone applied, and
we arc assured that it adhered to the
part effected for five hours, and then
dropped off. To the believers in the
“ mad-stone” the fact that it adhered
to the wound furnished evidence that
the cow was mad, that the virus matter
had effected Mr. Brown, who returned
home perfectly satisfied with the expe
riment, and rejoicing in the belief that
he, hail been saved from hydropho
bia.

'Hie first thing to do,my young friend,
amusingly hints Dicken’s Household
Words, when you start in life, is to set
tle everything you possess upon your
wife. Having done this legally and se
curely, take a warehouse in a good situ
ation, and begin to buy. That you may
be under no alarm about your power to
do this, I will explain, in a few words,
the theory of trade. The greater part
of goods manufactured are made by per
sons with little capital, and they are
compelled to forced sales to get bills of
exchange for discount to pay for the
raw material. The warehouse men
who buy them are men of little or no '
capital, and they are compelled to hur
ry sales to get bills for discount to pay
the bills drawn by the manufacturers.
: And so trade moves, one class continu
; ally pushing on another. The necessi
ty "to sell is behind every man’s back;
you, therefore, need lie under no con
cern about your ability to buy. Before
you have opened your doors a week, you
will scarcely be able to keep the com
mercial travellers out. Let it be hinted
abroad —although it is not absolutely
necessary for your success in failure—
that your father-in-law is a person of
property. It means nothing, but it will
be useful in a variety of ways.

FIRST SESSION.
■
Washington, March 13, 1858.
SENATE. ,
After the transaction of business of
. no public importance, the Senate re
sumed the cor 'delation of the Kansas
bill.
Mr. Wade, of Ohio, said that the
people of that State were alarmed at
1 the progress of the principles of despo
tism which they thought they perceived
connected with the administration of
this government. He regretted that
the question of slavery should be so of
ten thrust upon the Senate, hut its
enormous magnitude seemed to throw
every other question in the shade. Un
til it should be fairly settled one way
or the other, he did not expect to hear
much else discussed. A great deal had
been said of northern aggression, but,
in his judgement, the aggression had
come from the south.
A question of veracity sprung up
between several Senators as to the agree
ment respecting the Toombs Kansas
bill, and for a time much spirit, if not
ill-temper was exhibited.
Mr. Wade, without concluding his
remarks—being fatigued—yielded the
floor for an adjournment.
Mr; Pugh could not fee whv a colla
teral matter should afford a sufficient
reason for postponing the consideration
of the hill, as moved by Mr. Broderick, j
but he (Mr. Pugh) would defer to the
wishes of his colleague (Mr. Wade.)
Mr. Broderick’s motion prevailed
yeas 20, nays 18.
And the Senate then adjourned.
The House was not in session to-1
day.

’ Solved !—DR. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR
DIAL.—The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
has lost the power of duly converting food into a
> life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single
i course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric
fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude
nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
the eufi>fer, while his digestive organization was
. paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the
wholesome revolution created in the system, the
basis of activity, strength and health.
The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the
acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tie-doloreux j
or ordinary headache, affiietod with vague ter
rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with
paralysis, {borne down and dispirited by that
tori ible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of
nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
or disability arising from the unnaturnlcondition
of the wonderful machinery which connects ev
ery member witli the source of sensation, mo
tion and thought—derives immediate benefit
from tbo use of this Cordial, which at once calms,
invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous
organization.
Fcmalos who have tried it are unanimous in
declaring the F.lixir to be the greatest boon that
womin has ever received from the lmrds of
medical men.
Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im
mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite.
While it renews the strength of the digestive
powers It creates a desire for the solid materia' i
which is to bo subjected to tlieir action. As an :
! appetiser it has no equal in the Pharmacopia.
If long life and the vigor necessary to its cn
’ joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of
preciou- worth
Its beneficial effects are not confined to either
sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing
wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn
■ man of business, the victim of nervous depres
sion, the individual suffering from general de
bility or from the weakness of a single organ
will all find immediatcand permanent relief from
the U'*e of this incomparable renovator. To
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it
will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard
against that terrible nnlady. There are many
perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu
tion that they think themselves beyond the reach
of medicine. Let not even those despair. The
Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re
lerence to the causes, and will not only remove
the di-order itself, but rebuild the broken con
stitution

II f*T A Liver Remedy.—We
wish to say to every person who reads this that
v ! there is an article known as Dr. Sanford's In
0 vigorator , or Liver Remedy, which can be relied
11 on as certain to cure liver complaint in any ol
its forms, such as Jaundice, Dyspepsia, and nu
merous other Complaints, described in another
'■ column, besides which it is one of the greatest
j preparations or cures for consumption, taken in
■ early stages, that is now known.
J We take it for granted, as experiment has pro
ven that diseases of the lungs are not-genera !y
r| the first cause of consumption, but a debilitated
e system, caused by the improper action of the
liver, which reduces the power of the lunj.s to
resist or throw oil’ diseases caused by cold
irritation, leaving the lungs at the mercy of this
r disease, because the liver has incapacitated
• them from performing their proper action $f
v throwing oil*diseased matter Caused by cold.
‘ Thus to prevent consumption, cure the liver
and keep the system strong enough t< throw off
slight diseases of the lungs.
1 There is not in the world a better liver reme
dy or a cure for debilitated system than Dr. |
1 Sanford’s Invigorator, for it Ims been fully tried j
, in a large and extended practice till its results |
| are fully known, and now it Is offered as a tried i
? J remedy, and one that can be relied on.— Lan- j
