Judge Weems has held the office about eighteen months, and his ad ministration has been characterized by a rigid execution of the laws, with the utmost firmness to all parties. Then* may have been some com plaint at times about the rigor of his i sentences, but we are satisfied that I his aim has been to make the law a [ terror to wrong-doers. MAOON RACES.

The Flood Down the tfohllc an:t lilrarit ■Cailroad. Special to the XtMRHby S. AA. Line.] Union , Springs, Ala., March 3. Last night was one that, tried men’s souls at this place. We at one time anticipated a severe storm, but Prov idence prevented. We had a consid erable rain, and the wind blew with vengeance. The M. &E. R. R. west of this place is almost inundated in some places <m Line creek, which prevented the arrival of that train here last night from Montgomery. A small place in the track was washed out, but thouutiringHuperintcndont., Mr. B. Dunham, was wide awake, and went down in the rain from hero on a crank car and superintended the work in person, and succeeded in getting the train through early this morning. There was also some dam age on the M. & G. R. R. below here, which prevented that train from get ting through to Troy last night. All the damage is now repaired and the trains will run as usual this after noon. The country Is flooded all around. The telegraph lines wore also damaged to some extent, but were promptly repaired. P. • ♦ • Morin fa liltnofs. Chicago, March ;t. The storm which has raged in this region all day proves more serious to railroads than any other this winter. Nearly all the roads running into the city are obstructed, particularly the Mich igan Central, the Illinois Central and the Northwestern. On the Illinois Central the obstructions near the city are so great that no trains have ar rived or departed, and suburb resi dents could not reach the city. Snow has ceased falling, hut the gale con tinues and drifts arc forming every where. • ♦ ■ The Force llill. Washington, March 3. A canvass was made in the Senate this morning as to the feeling of that body with reference to proceeding with what is known as the Force bill. The result was that a majority of the Senate was opposed to taking it up until all the appropriation bills are disposed of, and indeed so solicitous were the Senators to go on with the latter bills that they requested Mr. Merrill to re port the Sundry Civil Appropriation bill, and waived the usual reading of the journal. It is very doubtful now whether the Force lull will ever be called. ITEM* It I\TELEVKII’II. Buffett has had another confer ence with MueMahon.
