Description ofth® HoWli , BomutTio (lotfa) June 5. No one who has ever yisited tHe Western coun try, can have a correct conception of the reat ap pearance assumed by the present astoniehing.rise of waters. The statement that the waters of the Upper Mississippi have reached a point six feet higher than was ever' known by the present resi dents, carries with it the idea that such a rise must greatly.increase the velocity of. the current and overwhelm every thing in its onward course. Such an idea presents an amazingly inadequate impres sion of the facts. .. . Up and down this mighty stream there are ex tensive bottoms on either side, stretching from one to ten miles to high bluffs, on whose summits the table oi; prairie' land commences. These bottoms, except some of the lowest, form the banks of the river in its ordinary stage. The soil of these . ' toms is alluviorf of the richest -kind, .and holds ou strong, inducements for farmers to cultivate such land’ Many valuable farms areKjin consequence opened on these rich bottoms. Generally, the bluffs come boldly to the river, and form its only shore on one side, while on the other, bottom land stretches for miles into the interior. Those who travel up and down the river the proper season, struck with the beauty and luxuriance of the vegetation, - where the farms are not hidden, as is frequently the case, by a thick growth of timber 0 n the river margin of the bottom. With this brief description, the reader who has never seen the Mississippi will be prepared to com prehend the extent and dreadfulness ol the present calamity, when he is told .that the bottoms with their beautiful farms, are now covered with water to the depth of from two to eight feet.. As rise after, rise comes down from .the upper country, the water spreads itself over th&e bottoms, its only barrier being these high and beetling bluffs, which in many places it has already reached. This to us is a wise ordination of Providence. In consequence of vent given to the flood from above, by permit ting it to spread over these bottoms in this way, the strength' of the current in the river proper is not very materially increased. The waters might rush madly down with terrific velocity ; and, being confined to narrow limits, do greater damage than by the present order of things. The reader can form but a feeble conception of the. immense amount of water that ifcmust take to cre ate this vast longitudinal ocean. Assuming that all the rivers, with the exception of the Ohio, are now as 'high as the Mississippi, there is at this moment . in the valley of the Mississippi and its tributaries an impromptu sea of fresh water five thousand | miles long, averaging five miles in width and fif-' teen feet in depth. .! The principal mitigation that exhibits itself amidst all this distress and destruction is, that it has come upon us so gradually as to enable the greatest sufferers to save their lives. The work of years has been swept away. Hundreds have been driven from their homes, and are for the present houseless and obliged to take up their abode with strangers. But their lives are spared, and by shar ing in the sympathies and benevolence of those who have not been stripped of their all, as they have been, there is yet cause for gratitude to that Being who causeih the‘waters to flow’for a wise purpose.—Hawk Eye. [A letter to the Editors Irom Burlington, says: ‘Five years will not place the country in this vi cinity in as good a situation as it was before; and thousands are totally ruined.’]— Pittsburg Journal. A Sensible Argument. The newspapers every where are discussing the beauty and propriety of the Bloomer or new Turk ish dress. For ourself, we care but little how the ladies dress, so that they are beautiful, amiable and .kind-hearted towards their husbands and “ the rest, of mankind." One of the dress advocates, how ever, has rather taken us by surprise. He goes fo the Bloomer upon the score of economy, and af firms that under the new regime three yards of yard wide cloth will make a costume, whereas, he saysi it takes over thirty-iix yards by present measure ment. He therefore argues after this fashion : “ Hence, it follows that one 'dress after the pres ent fashion will make twelve dresses after the new style. If there be ten millions of women within the United States, there would thus be saved by 1 the Turkish costume many millions of yards of good cloth, that might' be sent to the heathen, and thus every woman in Africa and Asia, and on the Pacific Island, to say nothing of the " unborn babes ”of the first mentioned region,-as Aminadab Sleek says, might be furnished with toggery from our mere surplusage." a fy The Western cattle dealers now use the railroads for the transit to market of their cattle. In a Louisville paper we see that ninety head of beef cattle were recently sent by the Little Miami and Columbus roads to Cleveland, and thence by steamer to Buffalo, anil from that place by railroad to New York city. The cost of transportation was 814,50 per head. : The owner sold immediately, on satisfactory terms, and returned home, having been absent eleven days. ■ Not the least accident or dif ficulty occured, and thlere was very little shrinking in the cattle. To drive a lot of cattle there from the same point to New York formerly required seventy-five days, attended with an expense of near 820 per head, and with a heavy loss by shrinkage. The Putnam County, Ind., Sentinel states that a company oi forty persons were recently poisoned in Hennricks County] in that State, and that about thirty of the number are supposed to be beyond re covery. The Sentinel says— ’ The person implicated as being accessory to this horrid *dced is said to; be an old woman, anxious to get rid of some grand children. ‘She put the poi son in a barrel of flopr which she thought Would be used by her intended victims, but by some means the flour passed into other hands, and was used by a family who had collected a number of persons together at a [quilting party. No sooner had the repast been over [than the victims commenced violently vomiting, exhibiting evident signs ot btf ing poisoned. j Mistaken. —Theiopponents of the fugitive slave law in Vermont f nominated Lucius B. Peck, for Governor. He declines the honor, as he believes the fugitive slave constitutional, and rebukes the act of the Whig Legislature of that State, ■which authorized Stkte officers to take a: fugitive slave out of the hands of the United States officers'.

The Machine stands on the wag on while ' threshing—the Power is loaded on the same-wagon in moving—two horses are sufficient to move it j it will save enough labor in threshing 2000 bushels to pay its qxtra cost. It will thresh in the field or by a stack as conveniently as in a barn. The cylinder and concave can readily, be adjusted so as to thresh with equal facility both tough and dry grain.
