May 17th, 1858. 5
VitIEND LEWIS:
Thinking some of your readers
might feel an interest in Western news, I
have concluded to drop you a line this eve
ning. Our country was visited, on last Thurs
day, with a most terrific storm of wind, ac
companied with a very heavy fall of rain. It
swept over this entire county, doing some
considerable damage to buildings, fences, &c.
In this place it partly unroofed a few houses,
threw down some chimneys, &c. ✓ North of
this it upset several small houses, but so far
as heard from, in this county, I believe no
lives have been lost. At Oquawka, in Hen
derson county, on the Mississippi river, it
took down several warehouses and damaged
other property, it is said, in all, to the amount
of some $40,000. At Galesburg, in Knox
county, east of this, it blew down one very
large Church, a brick building, and unroofed
some others, At Peoria the destruction of
property IS said to be immense. Several
steamboats were damaged and some lives lost
on the river. One man and four of his chil
dren were out in a boat when the storm came
on. The children= were all drownded—the
man was saved. A College building was de
stroyed on the hill, and it is satd every
Church building in the place, except one, is
more or less injured. The stage from Rock
Island to this place was blown over and up
set about nine miles north of this, and one of
the horses killed or drowned. The mail has
not reached here yet, that was in it, the
streams have risen so much. In our neigh
borhood, on the south line of Mercer county,
I learn that the house of Alex. S. Porter, a
log one, was partly blown down, taking the
roof, &c., down to the square. John Allison
had the roof taken entirely off his house, and
some others were blown off their foundations,
and a barn or two unroofed, but it seems that
no persons were injured. The weather con
tinues very wet. The streams are very high.
The Mississippi was high before the last
heavy rains here, and if they have been gen
eral there is a prospect of considerable dam
age, from that source, along the river. It is
seven years since we had a wet season here
before. Old settlers say it comes regularly
every seven years. I know we had a wet
season in '5l, and am told it was so in '44
and in 1837, and so far this bids very well ;
but this evening looks promising for fair
weather, though rather cool fur the season.
Yours, &c., P. J.
" The World Owes Me a Living."
[Written for the Globe.]
How often do we hear young men of the
present age exclaiming. "the world owes me
a living and lam bound to have it." Now,
if among the readers of the Globe, there are
any advocates of this cant phrase, I would
most respectfully place before them a few in
quiries, for their especial consideration. How
came the world—that mammoth bank on
which so many have speculated to their utter
ruin—to be your debtor? What new and
useful improvement have you added to the
practical part of science? What, pray, have
you done to accelerate the onward march of
human progress? Tell us, when and where
have you wiped the tear from the eyes of the
helpless orphan, or soothed the woe of the
broken-hearted widow, in her lonely pilgrim
age, by your acts of disinterested benevolence
and Christian charity?
Who, when you have passed from this stage
of action, will rise up and call your memory
blessed, acknowledging you as the instru
ment, in the hand of God, of directing their
youthful and inexperienced minds in the way
that leads to honor and happiness on earth,
and bliss supreme in Heaven? The world
owe you a living! No sir. So far from it
indeed, that unless you are doing something
for the benefit of your fellow men, and the
glory of your Creator, you are a poor, misera
ble pauper ; nay, even worse; for as "no man
liveth to himself," but exerts an influence
either for good or evil, your example and in
fluence are most deplorable; for "one sinner
destroyeth much good."
Then, young man, if you desire a happy
life, a peaceful death, and a glorious eternity,
be industrious, be honest,—not in the world's
acceptation of the term—but be honest with
your Maker, to whom you must give an ac
count for the way in which you have spent
your life, and with your soul, which is of in
estimable value. Only get a sight of your
base ingratitude to God for the blessings he
has already conferred upon you, and,—my
word for it—you will abandon, as false, the
common saying,. "the world owes me a liv
ing:" LEROY.
SPRUCE CREEK, May 22, '5B.
The Flood in the Mississippi Valley.
The Memphis Appeal of the sth inst., says:
The river falls very slowly—during the
twenty-four hours ending last evening, it had
not gone down quite two inches. The cre
vasse at Barton's Landing, four miles up the
river on the other side, was pouring out a
heavy volume of water yesterday, and will
do much injury. The position of affairs
down the river is melancholy in the extreme,
and we may expect to hear of cases of severe
distress. Mr. Thompson, the clerk of the
Evansville, in yesterday from White River,
has given us several particulars of the state
of things as they existed on the trip of the
boat to this city.
From Helena to White River the traveler
on the river could distinguish only one sheet
of water on both sides of the river, as far as
could be seen. Up the shore of White River,
for sixty miles, a similar stretch of water met
the eye. The houses are all surrounded by
water -which flows beneath them. "Where the
water runs in a current, the supports of the
houses are hourly undermined ; some of the
houses were seen leaning over, ready to fall.
The condition of the inmates in many in
stances, especially when far from neighbors,
must be most deplorable. The loss of stock
will be great. The cattle have no opportu
nity of lying down and must suffer from want
of sleep, as well as from scarcity of food.
Men were seen in dug-outs, in some places
followed by the wading cattle. The men
were engaged in cutting down the young cot
tonwood. trees for the cattle to browse upon.
In one place a drove of hogs swam for some
distance after the boat, evidently anxious to
gzt on dry deck. A man was seen at Helena
endeavoring to purchase a flatboat, upon
which to place a portion of his stock, to save
them from perishing. He lived back from
Napoleon; but not a boat was to be got in
that city. The fences, of course, are carried
off for miles. Cordwood is also carried away
in such abundance that the boats already
find it s:arce,.and have to pay an advanced
price.
Particulars of the Utah News.
[From the St. Louis Democrat, May 18.]
We have been favored with the following
extract from a private letter to a gentleman
of this city, from Fort Bridger, dated April
10th :
" Mr. Gilbert, partner of Mr. Gerrish,
reached here yesterday from California and
Salt Lake. He met Gov. Cumming on We
ber river, escorted by Porter, Rockwell, Egan,
Van Etten, and others. He was to have a
public reception in Salt Lake city to-morrow.
Mr. Gilbert also reports that the Mormons
were leaving.
" The Governor left Camp Scott on the sth
of April for Salt Lake city."
Mr. A. F. Gcrrish, the gentleman alluded
to above, arrived on the John D. Perry yes
terday, and to him we are indebted for the
following information :
He left Fort Bridger, which is one hundred
and thirteen miles from Salt Lake, on the
12th of April.
Gov. Cummings went into Great Salt Lake
City in company with the Mormon Ambassa
dor, Col. Thos. L. Kane. Whether the Gov
ernor was or was not invited to the city, Mr.
Gerrish does not know, and doubts if any
one in the camp knows.
Mr. Gerrish left Fort Laramie on the 24th
of April, arrived at Fort Leavenworth on the
13th inst., and left on the 14th.
At Fort Laramie he met Colonel Hoffman,
who had arrived there from Fort Leavenworth
with, as was said, 174 wagons. Forty miles
this side of Fort Laramie, on the 25th of
April, Mr. G. met the express mail from
Fort Leavenworth. On the 26th, this side
of Scott's Bluffs, he met Miles & Jones's
mail, which left Fort Leavenworth on the Ist.
Within twelve miles of Fort Kearney he met
the Peace Commissioners, Ex-Gov. Powell, of
Tennessee, and Hon. Benj. McCulloch, then
nine days from Fort Leavenworth, prosper
ing finely. Other carriages accompanied them.
At Bio. Sandy appeared the back mail of
Miles eJones. Some forty of the freight
trains of Messrs. Majors, Russell & Waddell,
successively passed.
To Fort Laramie the grass is in fine order.
The roads to Fort Leavenworth are greatly
cut up by the recent rains.
Cu!. Cook is at Smith's Fork, fifteen miles
from Camp Scott, and has a large lot of gov
ernment live stock.
On the 19th of April Capt. Marcy was at a
point some 2000 miles south of Fort Lara
mie, on Cherokee Trail. lie has there a
large quantity of horses and mules, and
some 3000 head of sheep, for sale through
him by private individuals.
The health of the camp is described as all
that can be wished.
[From the St. Louis Republican, May IStb.l
We have had an interview with Mr. Ger
rish, an intelligent gentleman who was a
passenger in the J. D. Perry, and who left
Camp Scott on the 10th of April, and stopped
a short distance from that camp for two days.
His information from that camp is, therefore,
to that date, and from Salt Lake City to the
9th. While his information does nut corrob
orate the news already given to the full ex
tent, it leaves no room to question the fact
that Gov. Cumming had entered Great Salt
Lake City. In order to account for this
change iu the aspect of affairs, it may be
well to premise that Col. Thos. L. Kane,
Who was sent out as a Peace Commissioner
by way of California, arrived in Great Salt
Lake City on the 25th of February ; that he
remained there eight days ; that after that
time he proceeded to Camp Scott ; that while
there, he frequently passed from the camp to
a place of conference with the leading Mor
mons, outside of the city; that, in pursuance
of negotiations then entered into, Gov. Cum
ming left Camp Scott for Great Salt Lake
City on the sth, and was met by a gentleman
on the 9th on Weber river, two days' travel
from the city. He was accompanied by Col.
Kane, and escorted by Porter, Rockwell, 11.
Egan, and other Mormons. His arrival was
anticipated on the 11th, and handsome apart
ments were provided and preparations made
to receive him in good style. A gentleman
who knows all about the Mormon people,
and who was just from Salt Lake City, told
our informant that the general feeling was
in favor of peace, only a portion of the lead
ers, perhaps those who had offended against
the laws, advocating resistance.
Mr. Gerrish was only nine days in making
the trip from Camp Scott to Fort Laramie.—
Before his departure a scouting party, in
charge of B. F. Ficklin, about whose safety
some apprehensions had been felt, returned
to the camp.
The provision trains intended fur Camp
Scott left Fort Laramie on the 24th April.—
Col. Hoffman, with his escort of cavalry, was
to leave the 25th. On the arrival of these
supplies, Col. Johnston's command would be
put in possession of everything necessary to
their comfort.
Capt. Marcy, with his force from New
Mexico, and horses, mules, and some 3,000
sheep, was heard from on what is called the
Cherokee trail, 200 miles to the south of
Fort Laramie. He had not been joined by
the three companies of troops detailed by
Gen. Garland as an escort, and was waiting
for them when heard from. The large num
ber of animals attached to his command
made his progress necessarily very slow, but
he was certain to reach Camp Scott by the
20th of May.
The Washington Union, after publishing
the above news from Utah, thus comments
upon the same :
It seems certain that Gov. Cummings had
taken his departure with Col. Kane for Salt
Lake City ; but we are without any reliable
information in regard to the effects of his
mission upon the Mormon people. It is evi
dent that Col. Kane has made a strong ex
ertion to effect a pacification, but whether lie
will be successful or not remains to be told.
One consideration, which may or may, not
have had weight with the Mormons, would
seem to indicate now, or at an early day, a
peaceful solution of the problem. It is cer
tain, for instance, that the authority of the
United States will ultimately prevail; and if
this end is attained through the action of the
army, the Mormon settlement will be com
pletely broken up. We are quite clear that
after crediting that people with all possible
religious fanaticism, it would still seem in
credible that thdy should fail to see the dis
astrous consequences which must result to
them if they continue in rebellion against the
United States. Some terms of accommoda
tion it is possible may be devised; and we
have no doubt that efforts are being made to
agree upon a basis of arrangement which,
while it will secure peace, will fully recognise
the Constitution and laws of the Federal gov
ernment. It must also be remembered that
when no immediate danger threatened them
there were vastly more valiant fighting men
amongst the Saints than later in the season,
when they were required to choose between
war and submission. It seems, therefore,
highly probable that the news we have re
ceived, though unofficial and incomplete, may
nevertheless foreshadow an important and
desirable change in our relations with Utah.
It would be wholly unsafe, of course, for the
administration to act upon the basis of the
reports in circulation, but they are not the
less interesting as items of news on a subject
of great importance to the country.
Prom Washington.
[Correspondence of The Press.]
Mr. Senator Toombs denounces our Govern
ment as the most corrupt on the face of the
earth though, at the same time, he eulogises
and defends the Galphins. We had quite a
thunderburst from him in support of the lat
ter onlyy-a few days ago. One thing is clear
that, although Mr. Buchanan is as pure and
as incorruptible a statesman as Washington
himself, the divisions about Kansas have
opened the door to some of the most suspi
cious transactions at the seat of the Federal
Government. •
Another loan is demanded. Some action
must be had on the tariff question. In,. the
re-adjustment the old tariff cry will be raised.
I see that extreme demands are made by your
ultra-protectionists, and the party cries of
1844 are heard as if to revive dead prejudi
ces. This is absurd. We should now ask
what we can not get, not a high tarriff like
that of 1828, nor one like that of 1842, but
one that will last. A deal of sagacity and in
spection is necessary on this subject. New
England is opposed to protection on our iron,
and Mr. Seward, with New York, is, I hear,
ready to co-operate with the West and South
to take off the duty from foreign rails. No
ultra-protection policy can prevail ; and you
of Pennsylvania must take the course which
the facts require at your hands. You are
right about it. Mr. Buchanan's policy is the
only one that can be carried, and now is the
time, when a revision of the tariff is deman
ded, to try it. He is in a position to do great
good to his native State, and he should not be
embarrassed by the intrigues of partisans.—
It is true Secretary Cobb, in his letter of
Wednesday, refuses to recommend an amend
ment of the tariff of 1857, even while asking
a loan of fifteen millions.
He suggests that no safe estimate of the
receipts into the Treasury can be made upon
an anticipated revival of trade and business;
nor can the receipts and expenditures of the
Government be estimated upon the baSis of
the present receipts and expenditures, the
former having been too seriously affected by
the late commercial revulsion to justify a pol
icy of legislation based upon a probable con
tinuance of this state of things fur any con
siderable period of time.
He also intimates that, even in the worst
aspect of affairs, the Government is likely to
be able to carry on its financial operations
fur the current year with a loan of only half
the amount which was reported some weeks
ago as likely to be asked for by the Treasury
Department; and the hope may belndulged
that, under the increasing commercial activi
ty recently indicated, even this amount may
not be found to be absolutely necessary.—
Besides, if the recent reports from Utah be
true, a large saving to the Treasury will be
made in diminishing the expenses of the
army, for which large appropriations have
been already made.
On the other hand a special committee_ of
the Huuse, Mr. Boyce chairman, recommend
a plan quite the reverse: They favor an im
mediate modification of the tariff, so as to
abandon everything like protection, and by
a system which will first tax luxuries, instead
of articles of necessity, and eventually abol
ish all duties and resort to a system of direct
taxation.
Look at the other side of the picture, and
then decide how we are to get along by bor
rowing money, or by relying on the Act of
1857. What with the Mormon Governorship
of Utah, stupendous custom-houses and post
offices, far beyond the necessities of the pub
lic service. Capitol enlargements, and otheis,
water-works big enough to make the Federal
metropolis a perfect L)well in manufactures,
the Treasury has been saddled enormously.
OCCASIONAL.
The Great Mail Robber.
Wm. S. Tuckerman was taken to the State
Prison at Weathersfield, on Thursday, to com
mence his term of twenty-one years. That
Tuckerman takes the most philosophical view
of the case, and looks upon his four lustrums
in the State' Prison as being, at the worst, a
punishment which he is destined to outlive,and
that he expects to mingle with the life of the
outdoor- world again, is shown by the request
which we are informed he made to the Jailor
at New Haven, that his clothes might be
carefully laid away with camphor, to pre
serve them against the ravages of moths, till
the time when he should emerge from prison
and require them ! Tuckerman is nice and
neat about his dress and personal appearance
—and we are afraid that if he lives to want
these clothes again, he will find them sadly
out of fashion.
His methodical precision in small matters
is exhibited in another thing. His pocket
memorandum book is found to be full of neat
little figures, and his cash account is bal
lanced every day to the cent. If he pur
chased an orange, or an apple from an old
apple woman, t4,.e item was duly entered un
der the head of expenses, and his column of
expenses balances his receipts exactly. Thus,
on the dates of some of his mail robberies,
his books shows "Receipts, $250," or what
ever the amount of the theft may have been,
and in the opposite column every cent is ac
counted for.
Tuckerruan is believed to have robbed no
fewer than thirteen "through" mails—or
mails between New York and Boston—as
that number are missing. He must have de
stroyed a vast number of letters which, val
uable as they may have been to others, were
not of a nature to be serviceable to him.
It cannot be denied that the Government
has been to blame for leaving these important
mails in a condition so exposed as fairly to in
vite just such a system of robbery as that de
vised and prosecuted by Tuckerman. It is
in this view of the case alone that his sentence
seems a rather hard one, for every other as
pect—and perhaps in this one too—his pun
ishment, severe as it is, was deserved.
Tuckerman, we learn, during his two and
a half months in the jail at New Haven,
gained twenty-two pounds of flesh. This may
be regarded as an evidence that the corro
ding action of a smitten conscience has not
been very busily at work upon him. He is
37 years old, and he will therefore be getting
into the "sere and yellow leaf" when he
comes out of prison, if he lives to serve out
his term. We shall probably see, in a few
years, petitions handed into the Legislature
for his release. There are always benevo
lent people about, who keep an eye to these
thi ngs.—Hardf&rd Tintcs.
WASHINGTON, May 23
Senator Toombs' Bankruptcy Bill.
The late extraordinary monetary tempest
which swept over country, prostrating so ma
ny business fabrics, has called public atten
tion to the,, question of a general Bankrupt
Law, and the most just and equitable basis
upon which such a bill could be framed. In
the Senate of the United States, Messrs.
Toombs and Benjamin, members of the Com
mittee on the Judiciary, have proposed a bill,
the principle features of which we give, in
order that a full understanding may be ob
tained of the measure of relief which these
gentlemen, and those who agree with them,
think should be extended to the unfortunate
at this time. The bill contains twenty-three
sections. By Section 1, bankrupts are divi
ded into two classes—the voluntary and in
voluntary; the former consisting of persons
generally who are unable to pay their debts,
and who choose to avail themselves of the
provision of the act; the latter of individuals
in trade, who by some fraudulent proceeding
evince a disposition to wrong their creditors,
or some of them. In compulsory cases the
bankrupt may have a jury trial.
SEC. 2. Provides against payments and
transfers made in contemplation of bankrupt
cy.
SEC. 3. Declares that by the decree of
bankruptcy the title of the bankrupt to his
property is divested, and becomes vested in
the assignee. But necessary household ef
fects, not exceeding three hundred dollars,
are to be exempt, together with whatever
property is exempt from execution by the
laws of the State.
SEc. 4. Grants a release to bankrupts who
fully comply with the requirements of the
act ninety days after the decree, and after
seventy days' advertisements in a public
newspaper, unless one:fourth in value of the
creditors file their written dissent. It also
provides minutely against frauds, and speci
fies the course to be pursued in appeals.
SEC. 5. The property of the bankrupt is to
be divided pro rata. Preference is only giv
en to debts due to the United States; to sure
ties who are entitled t. , ) preference by laws of
Congress; and laborers in the employ of the
bankrupt to an amount not exceeding $25.
SEC. 6 and 7. Give full jurisdiction, in
bankruptcy cases to the United States District
Courts, and direct what proceedings shall
take place.
SEC. 8. Confers upon the United States
Circuit Court concurrent jurisdiction in cer
tain cases.
SEC. 10. The Court shall order a collection
of the assests, a sale of the same, and a dis
tribution of the proceeds without unreasona
ble delay.
SEC. 11. Defines certain powers of assign
ees.
SEC. 12. No person to be a second time en
titled to the benefit of this act, unless he pays
seventy-five cents on the dollar.
SEC. 13. Proceedings in bankruptcy to be
of record.
SEC. 14. Relates to proceedings against or
by parties in trade who become bankrupt.
SEc. 15. Relates to the conveyance of the
bankrupt's real estate by the assignee.—Penat
slilvania.
Serious Riot in the Coal Region.
POTTSVILLE, Pa., May 22—The trouble
among the miners of the Ashland coal dis
trict, near this place, has assumed a serious
aspect. The workmen struck for higher wages
several days ago, alleging that, at the rates
received, they could not support their families.
As their employers refused to make any con
cessions, the miners went off in a body to oth
er collieries to obtain higher wanes, or to com
pel the other workmen to make the strike a
general one. They visited AVadesville and
the collieries in that vicinity, and by threats
and persuasions, induced the miners to join
them. Yesterday, the mob, now grown quite
formidable, appeared at St. Clair, and by
their violent demonstrations, stopped opera
tions at Milnes', John's, Snyder's, and other
collieries. The Sheriff's deputy was on the
ground, but was unable to make any arrests,
in consequence of the great strength of the
rioters:
A strong force was despatched from Potts
ville this morning, to suppress the disorder,
arrest the principals in the riot, and protect
those men who wish to go to work. The
Sheriff of Schuylkill county made a requisi
tion upon the military, and the First Regi
ment of Volunteers, under command of Col
onel Johnson, left for St. Clair at an early
hour.
The military returned at noon, bringing
with them the ringleaders of the riot. Up
on the appearance of the soldiers at the scene
of disturbance, the rioters saw that resis
tance was hopeless, and submitted immedi
ately. Quiet has been restored.
From Utah.
WASHINGTON, May 23.—The Union pub
lishes a letter from Fcrt Bridger, dated April
10th, stating, on authority of Mr. Gilbert,
formerly a merchant of Salt Lake City, that
Gov. Cumming and Col. Kane were met by
him in Echo Canon, forty-five miles this side
of Salt Lake, on the 7th of April. About
twenty Mormons accompanied them.
On his way to Salt Lake city, from Cali
fornia, Mr. Gilbert met large numbers of
wagons heavily loaded on the way, as was
supposed, to the White Mountains, near the
borders of New Mexico.
Nearly one hundred wagons were leaving
the city daily, and so far as women and chil
dren were concerned,-the city was nearly de
populated.
It is supposed that a large portion of them
are secreted on the City creek, above Salt
Lake, in the mountains, where it is known
that they have large caches of provisions.
In conversation with Brigham he was told
that if the army would give him time he
would leave, but otherwise he would " send
them to hell across lots."
The correspondent adds: We are await
ing news from Gov. Cumming with much in
terest and anxiety. his early return to camp
is not looked for by many, as he took with
him large supplies.
A Giant in Jail.
A gigantic fellow .is in jail at Pittsburg,
Pa., having been wandering about the city in
a state of lunacy.
A number of persons daily visit him out
of curiosity, and are of course astonished at
his tremendous size. He is called John Disk,
and stands six feet eight inches in his stock
ings, is finely proportioned to his height, and
apparently a giant in strength. He has what
phrenologists would call a magnificent head,
his forehead large, round and well developed;
his eyes clear, brows open and commanding,
features regular though not possessing. His
lunacy is attributed to religion; he keeps two
Bibles with him ; when in conversation he
frequently alludes to them in support of his
assertions. Ho seems quite harmless, and
tractable in his disposition. Ho was born in
North Carolina, to which State he will pro
bably be sent in the course of a few days.
