The railroads in that vicinity have been greatly damaged. On the Chicago and Bock Island road, miles from Joliet, 4be recent heavy rains caused &WOmendous rise in the Du Page river, at that point; overflowing the banks and completely submerging the bottoms for miles In the vicinity. A freight train con&istiDg'oflOoomoUve, tender and seven carß loaded with horses, appftlfcs>d.fche bridge across the Da page river on Saturday last; The train with a sea oi water on both sides, plowed .through water two feet deep, the engineer thinking, Jto doubt, thAt he would gain dryland on the. other side;continued on in hiß course, and not knowing that the rifer was so near —the bridge having been swept away— to the bottom of the Da Page, and the beneath the surface of the water. The engineer, fireman and one breaksman were lost, be sides the sevoncarloada of valuable horaes. Who can think, without a shudder,'of those seven cars, closely confiuing, beyond all hope of escape, their noble freight of horses.— We think recklessness, on the part of the engineer, in this case, can justly be charged, for no careful engineer would have run so valuable a train through two feet of water , when the presumption was, a log or some other obstruc tion had worked its way against or across the track—or. the immense quantity of water washing away portions of the road or filllng'lt up with sand. We have no desire to cast reproach upon the dead. As a matter of course, the railroad company is responsible for the freight and train) but who are responsible for the three that have l»een plunged into eternity without a momeut’s notice-? A land slide occurred on the Pacific Railroad, between this city and '-Jefferson city, on Saturday lait. After the paaseuger train hud worked its way through several places where the mud had been washed down upon the track— from 12 to 14 inches deep—a 10-’ornotive of a freight train came up in rear, smashing the rear car of the passenger traiu all to pieces, killing a boy, about 14 -years of age, and seriously injuring six or seveu others.— The land slides on this road were numerous, and much delay has boea experienced in thu past week, and these slides will continue to be a great obstruction on this road, aa it Is so constructed that, every heavy rain will wash , m*jre nr less Band and mud upou the track.

Some of our True,soil politicians have been endeavoring to get an expression from the Missouri Legislature nu the subject of emancipation, and have got it to their heart’s content. The Senate has just paused by a decisive vote, a resolution declaring that the emancipatiotfnf the slaves in Missouri ’‘would not only he impracticable, but that any movement having such ail obji-ct in view would be inexpe dient, impolitic, uuwjKo, and unjust: and should in the opinion of the UeDcrul Assunibly. be diM’nunt-nanccd bv the people of the State.’’ The TTuuse will either adopt the Senate’s resolution, or fake no notice ofthe matter whatever—silent coutempt. Since writing the above we learn that the House took up the reaolutiou as adopted by the Senate, and almost unanimously passed it—the vote stood, yens 107, nays o. The St. Louis representatives voted in the negative. This vote may be regarded as a fair index of the sentiments of the peoplo of Missouri on the subject of emancipation < r a fuither agitation of the Slavery question. Politicians, and office-seekers here are making active preparations for a visit to tho Capital of the Nation, there to tender their services for a consideration. : Petitions are still golug'tho rounds, and all are solicited to attach a signature by way only of helping to till up a roam of fools . cap, closejy ruled. Au aspiring politician will sign a half dozen petitions for the sarao office, merely to keep in favor •’ with those applying and also their friends. Theso petitions in most instances, do not reflect tho sentiments of tho peo ple at large;- but simoly a meagre number of politicians and seekers of power., These aspirants will go to Washington City full of hope and confident of succes, and many there are who consider tho prize certain—a fixed fact; but many musf return disappointed and with a heavy heart, disiatisfied with the manner iu which public patron age has been distributed, and some will no doubt carry their dissatisfaction so far as to denounce the President for not placing them in fat and lucrative places. This has been done, and no good reason exists why it will not bo done again. Mr. Pierce had trouble in makiug the Mis eouri appointments in ’53, but we aqticipato no sucli diffi culty with Mi 1 . Buchuunn, for wo believe he will first as certain who his real friends are, pay due respect td all applicants, and select such men as he may see fit, without fear, favor or affection, and that to with dispatch. If he does this, all difficulty will be obviated. All aspirants are just now warm friends of the President—but did they sup port the nomination at Cincinnati '. There are men iu Missouri who did do it, aud capable, too, of filling all the offices Missouri is entitled to. But will Mr. Buchanan know them? We mentioned iu a previous letter that we had the name ot #gentleman to suggest for a prominent and responsible office in the city—that gentleman is Mr. John Liohtner, and we propose his name to the consideration of the Presi dent/in connection with the Post Office of St. Louis. We make this announcement without tho authority or knowl edge of the geutleman, but upon our own responsibility, knowing, as we do, his business qualifications, his high standing and popularity in this community and the uni versal satisfaction his appointment would give to all classes and parties. It was our intention to pay Washington City a visit and see the recent Democratic'victory crowned by the inaug uration of Mr. Buchanan to the Presidency of the United States, hut, ‘“circumstances over which wo have no control” will prevent us from witnessing that interesting spectacle) although we should very much like to be present. [From tho N. Y. Herald of Feb. 19. J A Runaway Marriage In High Life—the Bride Worth $£50,000. A marriage took place in Grace chu-rch on Monday last* that haa excited no little interest in fashionable circles and caused quite a flut tering among certain wealthy families. It seems the bride is an heiress, and worth in her own right §250,000. She was the inmate of one of our most exclusive female semina ries, and is but fourteen years and eight months old. Her wealth and high position of her family were of course known to her asso- ciates, and her acquaintance was consequently courted. Among the gentlemen she was in troduced to was S K , a well known habitue of Fifth Avenue saloons, but who had reached the mature age of thirty-one years.— The acquaintance ripened into close intimacy, • and eventually the parties became engaged to be married ; but as the parents might inter pose an objection, it was arranged that it should take place unknown to them or any of ” tkp' young lady's friends. It was agreed that tne happy event should come off on last Sat urday (St. Valentine’s day) and the church was opened, the minister ready, and a few spectators had also assembled to witness the marriage ceremony which waß announced for 11, A. M. But noon came and went, and no bride made her appearance, and the church was closed. It seems that the principal of the seminary in which the young lady was a pupil got wind that something unusual was on the tapis, and she locked the would be bride in her room, and so prevented' the fulfilment of her engagement. But “love laughs at locksmiths,” and bjf some means Mr. K. was notified of the situation of affairs, and ar ranged matters in. such a manner that the young lad f> escaped from surveillance, and the couple were duly married in one of our most fashionable up-town cburches on the 15th inst. The bride and bridegroom immediately started for Washington, and intend to spend'the hon eymoon on -a Southern tour. This pleasant little affair has created quite an excitement among the young ladies in upper tendom, and is to them far more interesting than the Bond street tragedy. A Whole Family to be Hung. — The five negroes—a grandmother, mother, and three spins, (the eldest 19 and the youngest 12,) who killed their master, the late George Green, in Prince William County, Va., on Christmas night last, were fully convicted on Tuesday night last, after a trial lasting two days.— They are sentenced to be hung in thirty days after the date of their conviction. A terrible riot took place at the Erie Railroad improvements, Hudson city, N. J., on Saturday week, in which some thousand laborers were engaged. It' began between the Corkonians and Fardowners, One man was. killed and a number fatally wounded.— The military and Firemen were called out to quell the disturbance. Destitution and Death— lnquest of the‘Coroner. —A letter from a friend in Nookamixon township, gives the particulars of a terrible case of .destitution and death. It app9airs that a woman living in the. swamp or rooks of that place, by the name of Charlotte Taney, has not been observed by her neigh bors since the fall of snow, nor has any smoke been seen issuing from the chimney since that time. On Tuesday morning last a neighbor naihed Philip Nice, went by her house and called at her door which he found fast. He left, and not being satisfied went back again next morning, found the door fast as before, and went round on the back side and looked in at the window, and saw her lying dead on the bed. He made an entrance and found one of the most horrible sights ever witnessed. She was lying on her left arm and hand with her head and right arm hanging over the side, and was frozen perfectly stiff. Her hand which hung over the side reached down to a pot of water, which was full, and ran over, and with her hand had frozen hard to the floor, so solid that ;it required a great effort to get it loose. The mice had eaten a consid erable portion of the flesh .from her bones, and ! it was the most shocking sight ever witnessed. | Her bed was of the most miserable charac ter. It consisted of a sack filled with corn 1 stalks, and laid on a bedstead of her own | make, consisting of the limbs of trees laid j across scantling in the form of a ladder. The covering was also of the most scanty charac ter. There was nothing eatable about the house exeept some flour, and that of the poor est kind. She nu doubt died of actual starva tion and cold, and it is one of the most terrible ' cases of destitution in Bucks county, that has | ever come to our knowledge. Ou Wednesday | fast, an inquest was held on the body by Isaac : Mclntire, Esq., and rendered a verdict in • accordance with the facts as above stated.— Doylestoicn [Pa.) Democrat . Murder Will'Out! —The Detroit papers have accounts of the arrest and trial of several , members of a family near Brownrtown, Mich igan, for the murder of a pedlar. The trial was rather abruptly closed by the appearance in Court of the “mnrdered man,” who object ed to being considered dead. The scene in Court is described as rich.

THE GREATEST DISCOVERY OF THE AGE PROFESSOR WOOD'S lIAIR RESTORATIVE.—This preparation, although lesv than two years before the pub lic, owing to its wonderful affects upon the human hair and scalp, bus already obtained a celebrity and sale perfectly unparallelled. It has without the ordiuary appliance used for such purposes, won its way, and beeu heartily welcom ed to most of the cities and towns in the United States the Canadas, and the West India Islands.. Nor is this result surprising, when it is remembered that its popularity is based upon its merits, solely as established by actual tests. That this preparation will actually RESTORE GRAY lIAIR TO ITS NATURAL COLOR, pruduce a luxuriant growth upon the heads of the bald, prevent the hair from fulling off, and when used as a toilet article, produce a continual flow of the natural fluids, and thus render the hair soft, glossy and wavy, destroy diseases of the scalp, and expel dandruff, the certificates of distinguished geutlemen aud ladies, in every part of the country who hsve tried it, and therefore 6peak what they know, most fully attest. Milfoed, Worcester Co.. Mass., Nov. 13th, 1855. Prof. 0. J. Woud—Dear Sir; I take pleasure in bearing voluntary testimony to tho magic effects of your wonderful Hair Restorative. As far back as 1630 my hair commenced tailing off, until the top of my scklp became bald and smooth as glass, and it has continued to fall for a great many years, notwithstanding I have used many celebrated preparations for its restoration. Seeing your advertisement, 1 was in duced to give your article a trial, and to my utter astonish ment, 1 found after a lew applications that my hair became firmly set and assumed n very glossy and beautiful appear ance; and, by the time I had usod a quart bottle full, my bald head was covered over with a young aud vigrrous growth of hair, which is-uow from one to two Inches in length, aud growiag very fast. ■£ours truly, Henry Goodrich. From the Boston Herald. Something Worth Knowing ! By using Professor Wood's Hair Restorative, gray Hair can be permanently restored to tsoriginal color. The subjoined certificate was received from Johnson & Stone, Gardeuer, Me., and is hut one of the many instances that are daily coming to our knowledge of Its wonderful effects. It is no longer problematic, but a self-evident truth, as hundreds can testify. Gardiner, Me., June 22d, 1855. * Mr. H. Dtes—Dear Sir: I have used two bottles of Prof. Wood's Hair Restorative, and can truly say it is the great est discovery of the age for restoring and changing the Hair. Before using it I was a man of seventy. My hair has now attained its original color, you can recommend it to the world without the least fear, as my case was ouo of the worst kind. Yours, respectfully. I have used Prof. 0. J. Wood's Hair Restorative, aud have admired it 3 wouderful effect.
