PORTLAND, Oregon, Jan. - 18, via San
- Francisco, Jan. 20.--Decidedlythe heaviest
snow storm that has occurred in this sec -
tion for years has prevailed for two days
past. It snowed all day Tuesday and
rained nearly all yesterday. During the
night the snow continued to fall, and it has
-been snowing uninterruptedly to-day.
Daring the cold snap a few weeks since
there were storms particularly severe east
of the Blue Mountains. Quite a number of
people were badly frost-bitten. The snow
is deeper along the river than was ever
known before. In Reindeer River Valley
the snow is 36 inches deep, at Le Grand 20
inches, and on the mountains from four to
six feet deep. .
The route to Ploverville is closed. The
snow in Boise Valley averages twenty
inches, and Snake Creekis frozen so as to
allow teams to cross it. • The thermometer
at Idaho has been twenty-two degrees below
zero.
The steamer Pacific arrrived yesterday,
and departed to night for San Francisco,
taking $504,500 in treasure. The steamer
Sierra Nevada has arrived at her dock,
having been removed from her critical situ
ation in Columbia river, without injury.
The cars, drawn by the best engines of the
.-Company were unable to make more than
three miles for several hours en account of
the snow.
The steamer John H. Couch arrived, at
her wharf at 2 P. M.. from Astoria. She re
-ports that it was almost impossible to make
headway even in a direct course,on account
of the snow storm. She reports the Lower
Columbia in much the same condition as
the Upper Columbia river.
PORTLAND, Oregon, Jan.l9.—The weather
is colder than yesterday, with light falling
snow,'-which is now fully a foot deep here,
over two feet having fallen during the past
three days. Parties from Walla-Walla say
the road to Boise is lined with deserted
trains.;
The teamsters, when overtaken by the
-storm, cut loose the animals and fled for
- safety.' Much of the stock is in a poor con
- -dition, , Ond many teamsters will loose their
entire trains. Private letters from Fort
Satwat say the weather is intensely cold,
and the mercury ranges at about twenty
five degrees below zero.
The snow is eighteen inches deep. Several
Indiana and Chinamen and quite a number
of cattle and hogs were frozen to death. A
party of 800 Snake Indians, near Warren's
Diggings, are resuming a hostile attitude.
They lately murdered seven whites and
took a oumber of their animals.
SALMI, Oregon, Jan. 19.—The steamer
Vance' lost her guards at Rock Island to
day. The cause of the accident is not known.
The Fanny Patten went to her relief. About
eight inches of snow fell here last night.
The weather is moderate.
JARSONVILLE, Oregon, Jan. 19.—A very
heavy snow -and and rain storm has prevailed
for several days, and snow has fallen on the
mountains to a great depth. There is about
twelve feet of snow on Scott Mountain. No
one was able to cross for three days.
There have been no stages from the
_South for several days. The storm is
general North and South. It is snowing
very hard here.

votes.
That in the first election division of the
Fourth ward the election officers of said
division received the votes of persons to the

vision.
That in the Second election division of said
Fourth ward, the election officers of said
division received the votes of persons - to the

That a majority of the voters at the elec
tion held for judge and inspectors of elec
tions to conduct ale election in the Sixth
election division of the Fourth Ward fraud
ulently divided their vote for inspectors of
elections, so as to elect two of their own
number, representing their own political
views, with the intent to deprive the mino
rity of the right to have an inspector lit said
election, with the view and purpose to pre
vent a fair and due election, by the means
and practices resorted to and acted upon
by the said inspectors at said so-called elec
tion, held in said division; that in pursu
ance of said intent and purpose, the said
inspectors did fraudulently receive at said

ber of two hundred and seventy-five and
upwards, which were received and counted
in the general return of votes for said David
P. Weaver for said office, none of whom
were qualified to vote at said election. That
with the said intent and purpose, and with
the desire of holding an undue election, and
making a false return of votes cast for the

ceived, counted and returned the votes of

vice of the United States for said David P.
Weaver for said office of City Commissioner,
none of whom were qualified to vote in the
city or county of Philadelphia, or for any of
the officers thereof, all of which votes were
included in the general return of votes for
said D. P. Wealer for said office.
That an election was held under, the pro
visions of the act of Assembly on said tenth
day of Oct.last,at Fort Worth,in the State of
Virginia, by persons who were at the time
in the military service or the United States,
and who were qualified electors of the State
of Pennsylvania, and part of whom were

the votes of seven (7). persons, qualified
electors, for City Commissioner,; none of
which are included in the general return of
votes for said office; that the•return of the

vided. Respondent claims that the said

SAD AcCIDENT ON WHITE RIVER.—We
are under the painful necessity of announc
ing a most dreadful loss of life by the sink
ing of a flatboat above Batesville, in which
were two or three families, by striking a
snag and sinking immediately. It:Seems that
the persons in the 'flatboat were. moving
away from Arkansas, and while; descend,
ing the river,unconscions of all danger, the
boat struck :a snag and sunk in less than
five minutes, in a very rapid current. Out
of eleven persons only two, a man and a
woman, escaped a watery grave. The others
were mostly women and children. No
warning was given the poor unfortunates
to prepare themselves for so: sudden a
departure to that bourne from Whence no
traveler returns. The accident occurred in
broad daylight, on or about the 21st ultf
Several of the bodies were picked up float.

TILE.DAILT EVENING BULLETIN : PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, JANUARY 2
i Another Cfutse Across the Atlantic.
[From the London Gh?be Jar?.l.]
,4Vlra,ce of rather an: exciting ,eharacter
is'going on at the present moment the
-Course being the broad Atlanticland the
goal New York, and the circumstances
ate :Somewhat similar t(p those that
occurred in the case ,of the notorious eul
prit- Muller, when he made his flight
;from this country after the murder of
Mr. Briggs. The culprit on this occasion
held a respongible position in the estab
lishment of a city merchant, and the
crime of which he is accused is the for
gerrof a check for 4800 upon the City
Bank, Threadneedle street. It would
appear that about a fortnight- back a
check for the' above amount was pre
sented at the 'bank, purporting to be
drawn by the firm to which the
absconded clerk belonged, and the sig
nature seemed to have been so well fab
ricated, and the check was presented
under such circumstances, that no suspi
cion was entertained and the money
was paid: The culprits plans seem to
have been well laid, for he sailed in the
Saxonia, one of the swiftest of New York
mail packets, on the very day after he
got possession of his booty, and before
the forgery was discovered he was far on
his way across the Atlantic. His absence
from his duty of course created suspicion
and this led to inquiry and to the disco
very of the forgery. Inquiriethvere at
once set on foot, and the matter was
placed in the hands of Hayden, the ex
perienced city detective, and he suc
ceeded in tracing the fugitive. He
, ascertained beyond a doubt that the
criminal had taken his passage on board
the above named vessel for New York
in an assumed name, and that he was
accompanied by a lady. Within four
days of the discovery being made the
officer had started in pursuit, and the
ttvo vessels are now making the best of
their way to their destination. It will be
remembered that in Muller's ease that
criminal took his departure in a, sailing
vessel, and that his progress was conse
quently comparatively slow, and the
result was that although Inspector
Tanner did not go after him until seve
ral days had elapsed, the steamer in
which'he took passage outstripped the
other vessel, and arrived at New York a
I6,ng time before her, and the vessel con
taining the culprit was boarded by the
inspector upon her arrival a short dis
tance froin New York. In the present
case, however, there is no chance of the
Saxonia being , outstripped by her fol
lower, and she will in all probability
arrive at New York several days before
the one in which the officer has taken
his passage; and, if he should make
his way from New York into the inte
rior, the chase may possibly prove avery
lengthened one. it is anticipated, how
ever, that he will make a short stay at
New York after his voyage, and in thi
case the officer will be quickly on hi:
track: and, as there is a treaty for the
extradition of criminals between thi
country, and the United States, there
will be no difficulty in the culprit being
delivered by and brought back to thi
country. It is believed that the culprit
has nearly, if not the whole, of th
proceeds of the forged check in hi -
possession, and this will, of course, be
recovered in the event of his being
apprehended.
English 'infinity Movements in Chinn.
IFrom the Singapore it.ratts Times, Nov•
From the North of China we have
nothing to record of the slightest impor
tance. From Pekin there is absolutely
no news. Sir Rutherford Aleock is on
his way to Taku in her Majesty',
steamship Barrosa, and will, we doubt
not, push on at once for the capital, wt
hope, unop'posed. No signs of any in
tention on the part of the Chinese gov
ernment to keep him at a distance from
the seat of government have as yet been
manifested. On his way through Hong
Kong and Shangbae his Excellency's
attention was called to some very im
portant questions, which will no doubt
afford him an opportunity - immediately
on his arrival of trying the temper:of the
Imperial Cabinet. During two days of
his sojourn in this city a deputation from
the local committee of the China Rail
way Company waited on him to lay be
fore his Excellency a statement of what
they had already done towards the at
tainment of the immediate object in
view, the obtaining & the sanction of
the Chinese authorities for the construc
tion of a line of railway from Canton to
Fatshan, and of the necessary power:: n,
to purchase of land, &c. Repulsed in
. these attempts to influence the Viceroy
of the Hwang Tung and Kwangsi pro
vinces in their favor, and, instructed by
Mr. Robertson that nothing could be
done without the immediate authority
of the Emperor, they placed themselves
in this Excellency's hands, and besought
him, in the interest of commerce and of
civilization, to lend theta the aid of his
undoubted influence, personal and offi
cial, with the Cabinet of Pekin. Sir
Rutherford promised, but held out very
slender hopes of any early success. He
deprecated the selection that had been
made of an experimental line ' and sug
gested one somewhat nearer to the capi
tal.

AN EXTRAORDINARY TRANCE.—The
Memphis (Tenn.) Bulletin says: Last
Thursday, the 11th, a woman named
Betty Withers, a negress, living on
South street, who had been suffering for
only a short time from an illness con
sequent upon overwork, suddenly
breathed her last. Only about a week
previous to this she had become engaged
to a steady young man who owned a
dray himself, and was getting along
successfully. He was present in the
.room at the time, with the rest of the
'family, and his grief was heart-rending.
The body was prepared for the grave,
and amid the profound.grief offmany as
sembled friends it laid until the next
morning, when her betrothed came to
visit and take a last look at her face.
While doing so, her eyes opened, fell
upon him, he jumped back aghast, she
raised her head and was relieved of the
trance in which she had lain; but with
one horrid, unearthly yell, her betrothed
rushed past the door, disappeared, and
has not yet returned. Betty immedi
ately recovered.Yrd b ay was to have
been her marriageste
e day,but she was
only one there; and as two parties are
indispensable on these occasions, the
ceremony is postponed until some more
courageous Adonis appear.

It is one of the most usefhl inventions for domestic;
use ever offered to the public. The Roar is slited
one-quarter the time (and much better than by any
other process) by putting the flour in the top of the
Sifter, then, by turning the crank, the flour passes ,
through light;ee with great rapidity. Clerm, very
tine and 1 This Sifter hes no India rubber
rollers to grind up the dirt. such as bugs, worms,.
etc.. but slim all articles and leaves the dirt remaining'
in the sieve; the Sifter is made of tin, is very neat snot
easy to keep clean. It is the only Sifter now in uSeh
that gives SATISFACTION. Every Sitter is warrant..
ed. Be sure and flak for Spencer's Patent Tin sifter.
