• Sr. Louie, October 1,1855.
Qaite a change has taken place in the weather
sumo the, date ,of 'my last; indeed, it is quite cool
enough for.fire, and Nee several of the more "deli
cate'Sarapped up in cloaks and great eoata. Bad
- nese is active, and our merchants generally have
their. hands full., Country merchants still
our hotels and wholesale marts, all seemingly
.booked up" in their various pursuits of trade. We
have had some heavy rains 'in the up country, and
the rivers are beginning to show their effects. A
heavy rise is reported in the upper Mississippi, and
at this point the river is in a fewittage of navigation.
The health of our city continues unusually good.
There is not much news of a local character, of
• any_interest, transpiring. One or two murders have
been committed during the week—one by a man,
named Henry Bey,- who killed his mother-in-law,
Mrs. Jackson, by cutting her With a knife. The
murderer is still at large. Stabbing, shooting, and
coffee house broils seem to be on the Increase, judg
ing from the local columns of our city papers. The
Grand Jury is now in session, arta have sent into the
Criminal Court fifty-seven bills of indictments for an
assortment of crimes and offences.
The 25th of September was celebrated in this city,
by the congregations composing the German Evan
gelical Lutheran Church, In cominemoration of the
religious treaty of peace formed at Augsburg, on the
25th of September, 1555—three hundred years ago.
The procession was one of the largest that ever pa
raded the streets, and excited universal admiration.
An oration and several addresses closed the exercises
of the day.
Quite an excitement has been gOing on during the
past week in. regard to a lon g eepectel event—the
debut of Miss Dora Shaw, (lat e Mrs. Labaumo,) up
on the theatrical boards of St. Louis. The excite
ment of Jenny Lind was scarcely so,great, upon her
arrival here, as the first appearance of Miss Dora
Shaw on "any stage." She teas in every body's
mouth, and every body had a month full. Tuesday
night was set apart for her debut at the St. Louis
Theatre, and long before the. dinner bell sounded,
every seat in the house was engaged, and au hour
previous to the opening - time, the streets in the im
mediate neighborhood of the Theatre was completely
packed with men, women and children; carriages
and hacks were rattling through every street, and
the old and young were all wending their way to the
scene of amusement. Expectation was on tip-toe—
her most intimate friends and admirers declaring
her equal to the task, whilst others again persisted
in her inability and incompetency to strut the stage
with grace and refinement, while outsiders and fre
quenters of the "pit" threw up their hats, and shout
ed long and loud fur Dora. It was not long before
the house — notwithstanding the rain in torrents fell
—was jammed from pit to dome, with' one of the
most fashionable audiences that ever graced a thea
tre in this or any other oily. There could not have
been short of 1500 people present. The play was
the "hunchback," she persouating the character of
"Julia." She came from behind the scenes as an
old experienced actress would--not the least ember
nosed, and amidst tremendous applause, bowed and
bowed—boquets were thrown upon the stage, and as
she picked them up bowed and courtesied, and then
colutesied again, and again, and when quiet was
restored, proceeded with the play, unmindful of the
. many eyes of critics that were upon her, and closely
watching her every movement. Miss Shaw is a beau
tiful lady, a polished reader, and is endowed with the
requisite grace, so essential to give effect and beauty
to the character she personated upon the occasion of
her first appearance. Every body was surprised and
astonished at the manner in which she acquitted
herself; she far surpassed the expectations of her
most sanguine friends, and, to say the least, achieved
a glorious triumph. She played her part mush bet
ter than I have seen older and more experienced
stagers do. It was a *triumph lb; Miss Shaw and
her friends, and a great disappointment to many,
who went there with the expectation of seeing a
great failure. She was called out several times
during the play, at the end of which she thanked
the audience for their kind indulgence, .t.e. The
causes which have induced Miss Shaw to adopt the
stage as u profession, and a separation from her hus
band, lain not prepared to give, as 1 might not state
them correctly, and thus, unintentionally, do them
an injury. 1. hazard nothing in saying that she
will rank among the first actresses of the age, and
predict for her a success that has never before boon
met with by any that have preceded her, on the
American boards. She played five nights—the last
was on the occasion of a benefit for the Norfolk and
Portsmouth yellow fever sufferers. During those
nights she played to larger and more fashionable
audiences, than were ever assembled in any house
in this city. She is now a "Star," and a St. Louis
one.at that, and will, without doubt, be greeted and
admired wherever she may go.
We have advises from the "Army of the West,"
under command of Gen. Harney, now on the plains,
and are apprised of a battle between Get. Harney
and the Bride Sioux Indians. Tho engagement
took.place on the 3d or September, at the Sand Hills,
on the North Fork of the Platte. The U. S. troops
who participated in the battle, numbered about 400.
It was u running fight—covering a space of ground
of about 10 miles. The Indians Were completely
routed. having 80 or 00 men killed, and upwards of
50 women and children taken prisoners—the women,
it is said, fought furiously. Oen. Harney had five
or six killed, and us many wounded. No officers
were killed. This tribe of Indians are the same who
were concerned in the murder of Lient. Grattan and
party, who were in charge of the U. S. Mail, and
who have frequently defied the U. S.. troops to meet
them. Papers and way bills were found that had
been in the rifled
The steamer Alliance sunk in the Osage river, on
the 10th ult. She struck a log, and wont down in
about two minutes in ten feet water; boat and cargo
are thought to be a total loss. She bad on board a
valuable cargoone firm alone had $40,000 worth of
goods shipped on her, and, it is believed, uninsured.
.The Governor of lowa has issued his proclamation,
setting apart the 22d day of November, as a day of
thanksgiving and prayer in that State.
An election for Delegate to Congress will be hold
on the oth of the present month in Minesete Territo
ry. The friends of the Several candidates appear to
be quite confident of success.
Late advises from Oregon and Washington Terri
tories represent that considerable excitement exists
there with reference to a proposition to create a new
Territory around Wallawalla, out of a portion of
both Oregon and Washington._Meetings are being
held in favor of the project, an it is intended to ask
Congress next winter to accord the new Territory a
government.
A serious difficulty occurred at Westport, Mo., a
few days since. between Gen. Barber, late a mem
ber of the Kansas Legislature, and a Mr. Harris, a
keeper of the hotel at the place. Harris fired and
hit Barber two or three times, and the latter stab
he'd Harris with a knife, inflicting one or more dan
gerous wounds. There is no hope of his recovery.
The cause of the difficulty is not stated.
The Hon. Caleb Cushing, Attorney General of the
U. States, has commenced a libel suit against Judge
Hubbellpf the .111.ilwmAkio, Wie., oirouit, for writing
a letter - assailing the character of the Attorney Gen
eral, and against the Milwaukie News for publish
ing the same.
some excitement exists at Memphis, as to the fact
of the yellow fever prevailing in thaecity. Several
deaths have occurred and it is said by some from yel
low fever. The citizens are ranch alarmed, and
many of them are fleeing the city. This scourge,
from all accounts, is spreading far and wide, and
nothing but a strict observance, to the quarantine
system will prevent its further spread in our large
cities, where its dreadful effects, will be most serious
ly felt.
They have now nearly completed the census of
the State of Illinois, and the returns show a popu
lation of I,lBo,ooo—an increase of nearly a half mil
lion in five years.—The Journal claims Illinois as
the fifth State in the Union. Missouri, with her
slave constitution, can never keep pace with her sis
ter State, therefore, let us blot it out !
On Saturday morning the Republican of this city,
contained a long editorial endorsing the claims of
Edward Bates for the Presidency in '56. We would
not be surprised if the Republican would haul down
its banner before long, as the Herald was obliged to
do with Sam Houston—on account of the Know
Nothingism of their first choice! The White House
fever is beginning to show itself in the West—Bates,
Atchison and Douglas are down with it, and several
others are expected to be attacked on the tint ap
pearance of frost! Who struck Sam Houston?—
That's. the suestion now in political circles.
Miss Annie Slaymakor, Mr. and Mrs. Bailey, and
Mr. and Mrs. Jewell, of your city, and vicinity, are

There is mbre excitement in Kansas and more
trouble brewing. Iloy. Reeder has consented to run
as the Anti-Slavery candidate for Congress, and that
party have selected the time for the election one
week later than the Legislature fixed. Thirefore,
there will be two election days, and two Delegates
elected, the validity of which must be decided by
Congress. Gov. Reeder accepted the nomination' in
la patriotic speech, which was enthusiastiely received
by the congregated hundiedS. The Herald of Free

The latest foreign news by the Pacific,
which arrived on 'Wednesday last, gives the
details of the fall of Sebastopol: The English
issault was led by Sir W. Rodrington and
General Markland. General Pelissier's official

he telegraphs home that he took in Sebasto

The lett& 4ave begun to occupy the town,
but the Russians . were still seen in small
groups among the ruins. It is said that the
Allies have blown up the greater part of the
fertffications of Sebastopol left standing by
the Russians. The Czar has telegraphed to
the Kin of Prussia that Russia never makes
I+lce allor a defeat. The Russiabs are pre

Crimea, and it is rumored that the Emperor'

elf._ Some of these features are entirely original, and
the others have never before been united In one Bible.
Rev. Dr. Baird (Presbyterian) says: "It seems admire;
bly to unite theaccompaalments of devotional meditation,
critical exposition, and graphic illustration, with a neat
and elegant text of the sacred•writinga. The engravings
are not in the way of fanciful decorations, but serve to
illustrate the manners and customs of the East, so as
greatly to facilitate the study of the Word of Ood."
Rev. Dr. Cheever, (Congregational) says: "I like the
plan of the Domestic and so far as 1 have examined
the notes and Observations, they are excellent."
Rev. Dr. Peck, (Methodist) frays: "1 have examined the
Domestic Bible sufSciently to be entirely satisfied that its
plan has many advantages over any addition of the Bible
with which I am acquainted."
Having examined the Domestic Bible, we fully concur
in the opinions above expressed, and fully recommend it
to Families, Sunday Schools, Teachers, and Bible Classes.

Ranee - Dime, Sep. 11, 1855.
Charles K. Landis, Esq.—Dear Slr, ; Yuma, dated PhDs
delphis, Bth hat, came to hand an honrago, and I hasten
to reply. You desire in It a true statement or description
of the land, Ac., about St. Mary's, In Elk county. lam
happy to'be able to give yen 'a full deaription, az by leg In the place foe the lest dye years, as aim having fre
quent occasions to weldor° the lands and its mineral worth.
I have become thorough] acquainted with the' value of
the land and Its resources. As an agricultural
country, It surpasses any land In this or adjacent caulk
ties. It producee the best of rye; corn oats, potatoes and
limas. Last year, when there was a general failure of crops
in Eastern Pennsylvania, ISL Mary's had an abundant
harvest, and whilst scarcity prevailed everywhere else,
there was abundance here. Thousands, of dollars' worth
of produce was sold in this settlement last year. It Is a
good limestone soil; limestone Is found in abundance, so
that the land can at any time be improved by liming.—
, Abundance of coal is found everywhere In these lands; I
have, although wood is so plenty, for the last two years
used nothing but coal for my family use. I know of more
than ten or twelve' different coal banks opened within a
short distance of St. Mary's. They all average from four
to Mx feet vein, running in general Into the hills, or rath
er working upwards, so that water never can disturb them.
There is also abundance of Iron ore. The Kidney rock,
and some pipe ore has been found. At the base of hills
torn away by the ravines, I ran in many places get lumps
of ore weighing from five hundred taste hundred pounds,
Of the best of rock ore. There Is also abundance of fire
proof clay lying in strata between the coal and limestone.
The northern part of the St. Mary's tract abounds In the
best of cherry timber and ash; such is 91e quantity, that
from fifteen to thirty thousand feet of lumber mu be
manufactured from the acre. The southern part Is mostly
fir, pine and hemlock.
The water powers in the various streams cannot hazer
passed; they are ep the Elk creek, East Trout run, South
east creek, WestTreek, 1/ent'a run, North Crooked creek,
east branch of the Clarion river, Silver Creek and Kersey
run! All these streams possess first rate mill sites; and
the 'day will not be far distant when every stream will be
filled with manufactories of some sort. The Sunbury and
Erie railroad passes directly through the whole 'of this
land—and when once finished, nothing is able to compote
with this section of the State.
. • .
We here have the health; we have-the soil fur the hus
bandman; we have the rutneial for the manufacturer-, we
have any quantity of real; we have immense forests of the
choicest and best of timber, and, in fact, nothing is want
ing, when this road is completed, to make this one of tho
wealthiest portions of the State. To Illustrate the place
properlycto you, you must think that eleven years ago not
a tree was cut here, Many of the people who settled here
were entire unacquainted with clearing land ; now they
possess good farms, and the log huts. are giving way to
magnificent buildings, audit Is proverbial that every man
Is getting well elf. We

ijitigway Farm and Agricultural Com
pany.—A Farm within the reach of every Man.—
Pennsylvania Land. Twenty-seven thousand acres of good
land have been purchased, with the intention of giving a
Farm of twenty-five Acres for each share, payable by
instalments et one dollar a week.
It is located in the county of Elk, where a junction will
soolibe formed by Myr railroads, Immediately connecting
it, with its great agricultural and coal resources, with Erie,
Dunkirk, Buffalo, Rochester and all the cities on the Lakes.
Also a road leading directly to N. York, one directly from
this property to Philadelphia and intermediate places, one
directly from this property to Pittaburg, and 01:11.1 directly
from this property connecting with the Western roads,
forming the grandest concentration of railroads upon any
one spot In Pennsylvania, tending at once to develop its
immense agricultural and coal resources.. The soil Is not
surpacsed in richness by any With° State. It is divided—
I.—lnto farms or shares of twenty-five ,Acres, at the
price of two hundred dollars, which is payable In instal
ments of one dollar per week.
11.—Into Rums or half shares of twelve and a half acres,
at the price of SIOU payable In instalments of two dollars
a month, or by the week.
Besides this, there Is a valuable saw mill upon the prop.
erty, and one hundred St fifty lota in the thriving town of
St. Mary's, which the subscribers get.
This originally formed part of a large tract, a great por
tion of which as settled by Industrious and educated
Uermans, numbering some twenty-five hundred. They se
lected the land on account of its agricultural and mineral
wealth, which alone is an indisputable evidence of the
facts, as they are well known to be superior judges upon
these subjects. They went there some twelve years ago,
and they now have a thriving and beautiful settlement,
which is laid off In regular rotations of fine farms, St.
Mary's is the town of the settlement, and is rapidly in
creasing in population. It has hotels as good as any in
the :late—tine stores—a college ' where the highest branch
es of education are taught, hottillterary and musical—saw
mills, grist mills, coach a pnanufactories, and every thing
conclivable to add wealth and prosperity to the place.—
The laud °Mho company surrounds this town, and alithe
improvements, thereby reaping the benefits, and present
ing a splendid opportunity for settlement. Limestone
abounds. This is both an evidence of the quality of the
soil and a great fertilizer. At St. Mary's it sells at from
ten to twelve cents a bushel, burnt.
The timber is of great value, and consists of Cherry, Ash,
'Chesnut, Pine, Cab and Hemlock, all of primeval growth,
of great size, and towering from eighty to a hundred and
twenty feet high. That which the stockholders do not
want will be sold to the timber merchants, with conditions
to cut It in a certain time. This will clear the laud, and
bring a large revenue into the treasury, which will go to
the reduction of the price of the farms.
This explains its agricultural resources. But there is
another consideration of equal, if not greater, Importance.
The land is one great bed of coal. Upon thin property It is
literally inexhaustible. By taking a glance et the latest
map, first at this locality, and then over the State, it will
be found to possess the grandest features of prosperity, im
provement, and almost immediate development. It is in
perlor to any other. It is the only place having the groat
concentration of railroado, by Which New York, the Lakes,
Philadelphia and Pittsburg are at its doors. There is no
coal in New York, and on account of its northernly situa
tion, It possesses the advantage of nearness. This is des
tined to become the Pottsville of that portion of the State.
The prospect in the future for this place exceeds any that
Pottsville ever had; and there, land which a few yearsago
was selling at five and ten dollars an acre, when the rail.
road opened its mines sold for from two to five hundred
dollars an acre. These are facts. Those who are ignorant,
let them make inquiry. Improvement is still progressing.
So arrive at the truth. Judge the future by the past, and
then what will this land be? It is proper that reason
should give the answer.
•
The-Sunbury and Erie Railroad, of which Gov. Bigler
Is President, and which connects this land with the Lakes
and Philadelphia, and the Alleghany Valley Railroad, of
which Gov. Johnson is President, connecting' this land
with Pittsburg, are In rapid course of completion, and up
on.a great extent the locomotives are running. The reflec-
Bons which suggest themselves upon this subject are
these—lt takes two hundred weeks to pay for the farms.
They Will be distributed when they are half paid for. By
that time the railroads will be finished. That will be
early enough for all practical purposes. The advantage
of buying it before their completion Is evident. When
that Is done property will go up ono hundred per cent.
Speculation in coal would at once run it up to such a
price as would make It Impossible to obtain tor agricul
tural purposes. We now get it without paying the then
improved price, and the Mos:l:holders will enjoy the rise.
A tract of about two thousand acres will be laid off at
once, and ready by next Spring, in order that, persons who
wish to farm immediately can do so.
Friends and relatives, as well as those having more than
ono share, can have their farms together.
An Improvement Department will also be connected
with the company. Ity this Meant+, in order to lICCODIIIIO
date those who are unable to give their personal atten
tion to fencing and preparation, or desire to rent their
properties out Instead of residing there,
arrangements can
be made to place each farm in complete order, so as to be
ready for cultivation. After the farms have een all sold,
stockholders ran have manure ft:trashed, houses built,
and othor work done upon credit, they securing tho pay
ment to the company within a reasonable time, so that a
man la the first place receives a firm at the lowest possi
ble price, and thed is afforded every' assistance in placing
it under crops.
These embrace thsTprinciple features, and an excellent
opportunity is now offered for a man to .obtain a home
for himself, his wife and children, either at the present
or time to come. Many butanes men, mechanics, and
workingmen upon farms, who save several dollars a month,
can, by tints uniting together, become freeholders, whilst
they scarcely miss the outlay, and at less expense than
the annual crest of tobacco or the most trifling luxuries.
A saving and purchase of this kind eat nothing, and con
stantly increase in value. In case of sickness or misfor
tune by which he is thrown out of employment, he has
a home to go to, where he catt?always snake a good liv
ing The title is unexceptionably good--one of the old
est in the State, being the Rolland Title. Those who
desire farms, will please address, personally or by letter
