ENGLISHMAGAZINES.—Mr. Kromer, 403 Chest
nut street, lends us the new numbers of Temple Bar
and the CornhiLi Magazine. The former is certainty
superior, this month, to any of its former numbers.
Except that it is feeble in its poetry, we Should say '
that no better English magazine was to be , found.
Miss Braddon here concludes " John Marchmont'a :
Legacy," and commences! " The Doctor', Wife," a
new novel. Dutton Cooke's "Trials of the Teed
golds," a powerful tale, draws near its cooolusion.
Mr. Sala chat. pleasantly about Pall Mali ; in
"The Millers and their Men," a lively and
graphic account of the King and Keenan fight
is given. "The Rival Queens," taking up
Proudes two new volumes, discusses the personal
character of Elizabeth and Mary Stuart. "The
Lady of Ealmonte" is the original story on which
"The Merchant of Venice" is founded. Some
one in Mr. Sala's manner, but scarcely Mr. Sala
himself, gossips about Galway and its fishy suburb.
The Cladagh, "What Ralph Halkett did;" Is a
mere trifle, but a lady's narrative of " The Inner
Life of a Shipwreck," is an unusalty effective
Magazine article. Ever since Mr. Thaokeray ceased
to edit it, the Cornhill Magazine has become dull.
Mr. Trollope's novel, "The Small House at Ailing
ham," has latterly been almost its solitary piece eta

Errordew Prowl:um—From Arr. Kromer, 403
Oheetnut street, we have received the News of the
World of the 27th ult., and the Inu.sira/ed London
News, and also the illustrated News of the World of
the 211th. It is Singularly indicitive of the
phlegmatic nature of even London journalism
that not one of these papers has even passing
mention of the death of Mr. Thaokeray, which was
known all over England, by telegraph, before noon
on the 24th. One might have thought that the loss
of such a distinguished and popular Author would
have obtained early and special notice in the me
tropolitan weeklies. The Illustrated News of the
World-gives a memoir and capital portrait of Ade

a specimen of Photeleetrio Engraving, executed by
Dallas' process, and untouched by the engraver. This
seems to be a wonderful application of the art,—Nun.

Heating and Ventilating Railway. Cars.
The Cleveland Herald. of a recent date, in noticing
the extreme cold weather, and the suffering and in
convenience which it occasioned travellers on the
various railway lines, mentions an important fact
regarding the heating of railway cars, which, for
the benefit of the public in general, and railroad
companies in particular, we will take the liberty of
commenting upon. It appears that the ears on the
Michigan Central Railroad are provided with a
kind of patent, stoves, manufactured by cares. par
ties in Canada, which will not burn except when
the cars are in motion, and consequently, when the
cars became blockaded In the snow, the fires went
out, and the weather being intensely cold, the ther
mometer at thirty-two degrees below zero, the suf
ferings of the passengers became terrible, partieu.
larly Of the Women and children. This was mainly
so because no fire could be started for a sufficient
length of time to do any good. The top of the pipes
Would become red-hot, and actually set tire_to the
roofs of the cars several times which was only put
out by - cutting away the wood work. Fortunately
there were none frozen to death, the passengers ha.
ving been eventually carried to Chicago in sleighs,
though many of their number were badly frost-bit
ten, and some, it is said, will lose their hands and
feet.
Now, without Wishing to censure the railroad com
pany in question for negligence, we cannot but 'de
plore the het that such a disaster should have oco
coned, as at could manifestly have been avoided by
the use of the right - kind of. American Railway Car
Heater, instead of the wretched llanada-made arti
cle above referred to. It is not the first time that
we have taken the liberty gf calling the attention of
railway companies to this subject, and of pointing
out to them the best Heater in use, and we are glad
to know that our efforts in this respect have not
been in vain. With the great philadelphin made
Heater, invented and manufactured by our ingenious
townsman, James Spear, Esq., Nos. MS and 1115
..112arketatreek,the - sad - accident chronteled' by the
Cleveland Herald could not possibly have occurred;
for reasons which the reader has a right to knoitt
From the construction of the bogus heater mention.
ed above, it is simply impossible to heat care com
fortably in cold weather, from the fact that it is
elevated on a box some fifteen inches above
the floor of the car, -with a pipe to discharge
the hot air up against the roof, expecting thUs to
heat the whole interior, showing a most lamentable
ignorance of the first principles that regulate the
diffusion of heat in it railway car, or chamber of any
kind. We do not wonder, as our authority goes on
to state, that "the women and children were ele
vated on the top of the, seats," to avoid the do.
structive cold in the lower part of the care. The
intelligent reader need not be informed that the very
reverse to this blundering principle is the one that
should be adopted in the construction of railway car
heaters, and this we may state is the case in the
Spear stove:. The latter, instead of burning the top
of a ear and freezinji at the bottom, by a most perfect
and effective arrangement, throws the hot air out at
the bottom of, the car, and burns with equal freedom,
whether the cars are in motion or stalionary and furiher.
more, by the use of the Spear Heater, it would be
impossible to set fire to the top of the car, even if the
pipes were kept red hot for hours.
If we remember correctly, an aeohlent somewhat
similar to the one above described occurred on our
Pennsylvanjit road some years ago, but the latter
having had the sagacity to introduce the Spear
Heater in their ears lance then, a repetition of it in
future will be impossible. By the way, we may
mention in this connection that the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company use coal in these Heaters (they
being equally well adapted for both) instead of wood,
.and we may ask, would it not be wisdom on the
part of Western road', especially such as make long
runs, across woodless prairlea, to adopt the same
plan, as the bulk of fuel in coal necessary for a triple
less than half that of wood? Nor can we dismiss this
subject without expreesing surprise and some little
mortification that, with the best homemade car-heater
in the world, railway companies should patronize a
foreign article, and one that is manifestly inferior to
the Spear Stove in every partieular. From our own
personal knowledge, we can speak of the uskpaalitied
satisfaction that the Philadelphia-Made Easter 11
giving to a number of the principal railroads in the
United States that have them in use, as well as to the
travelling public, and superintendents have ex
preened to us their preference for it over all others—
that, in fact, they would not abandon Its use for
double its goat. Railway companies will act wisely
by giving this subject their attention.

he was a large slaveholder. He came—he spoke,

Private advice, from Charleston state that on the
29th of December Admiral Dahlgren cent an expedi.

and the Mary Sanford, Capt. Rogers, with a detach.
ment of mariner, and several beat howitzers; the
whole under the command of Capt. Green, to Paor

tine, waiting to run the blockade. The rebel, have
a live4un battery and a battalion of infantry and
cavalry at the Inlet. The expedition was furred to
take refuge in
,Georgetown. entrance, on account of
severe weather. On New Year's day the Nipsic ran
up to the Inlet,,.opened a heavy tire on the rebel
battery, :and landed the marines and howitzers un
der oover of the fire. The 12 pound howitzer was
got into position, and succeeded insetting fire to _
the schooner, and also to a large quantity of cotton.
The marines, advancing under cover of the fire of
the hottlizer and the Nipsic, encountered the en&
my's cavalry, but as the object of the expedition, the
destruction of the schooner, was accomplished, they
were ordered back to the steamer, which they
reached without loss. There has been considerable
trade in the vicinity of Morrili'e Inlet, which the
small blockade runners have tried to keep, with but
poor ;swamp. Some time since a boat's crew from
the Perry were captured onshore, and one o rthe crew,
a free negro from - Maine, was hung upon the spot.
The Admiral proposes to retaliate for this outrage.

man of substance and character, and would advise no
step designed or calculated to cripple the Confederate
Government, or tarnish the fair fame of our State.
Our views on this subject, expressed in July and
August Last, have been strengthened by subsequent
events. The people of this State desire that some
effort shall be made to close the war on honorable
terms. They believe that mere fighting will not
end it, but that negotiations must be resorted to in
aid o f the sword. Far-belt from us to attempt to
dictate to the people's representatives; but our situa
tion is such as to. enable us to collect public sen
timent from all portions of the State, and we slay
most Rept (tinily to members or the Legislature
that if they shall adjourn and return to their con
stituents, witholit making some effort to initiate
negotiations, they will be held to a serious se-.
countability. Now is the time for statesnunish,ip and
moral courage. There are members of both houses of
the General Assembly who possess not only moral
courage in a high degree, but information and ex•
perience as statesmen, which could be brought to
bear in this crisis in such away as to meet the ex
pectations of the people in paving the way to an
honorable peace.
We were in a better condition to negotiate three
months ago than we we now ; and it is not certain
that we shall achieve great victories, and thus
prove our condition in this respect during the next
three months. Golden moments are flying. If we
attempt to negotiate and fail, we shall be no worse
off than we are now. We may succeed; but if we
fail after an honest and earnest effort, our people
will then know what is in reserve for them, and will
band together as one man to meet the enemy and
fight to the last.
. 1 A MONSTROUS PROPOSITION"—A DICTATOR.
The Raleigh (N. C.) Progress says:
The beauties of Secession, but dimly seen at first,
are becoming more and more vivid as the revolution
advances, and from present indications it will not
be long before he.who runs may read. The commu
nication of officers of the Army of Tennessee, read
in the House of Representatives on Tuesday, shows
that there is an alarming state of demoralization
and disaffection in that quarter.
If there is to be a dictator, Mr. Foote wants Gen.
Lee. 'We have as 'much confidence in and respect
for Gen. Lee as any man living; but we tell Mr.
Foote that the people of North Carolina, who set
out to fight for freedom and liberty, will not submit
to a dictator in the person of any living man, while
the power is left to resist.
-THE SIGNAL 'GB ALARM. AMONG . OGNSGRIPT Hll
COMM
A spy who has gone through the South credibly
report, as follows :
On the approach of rebel cavalry or conscripting
officers who, by the way, are always accompanied
by a military escort, the fugitives give the signal of
SAM. by -blowing a tin horn. As its notes roll
along the valleys, a general rush it made to the
forest rendezvous, from which they not mitre
quently ashy forth and knack the cavalry and con
script officers, who are sure to get the worst of it,
as the pursuit of the fugitives over fences and
through woods is impossible. My informant states
i i
several instances which came under his own e e, of
rebel cavalry being attacked and put to nig t by
M
these fugitives. During three days' us
se a a
portion of Alabama he heard the deserters' signal
almost hourly, and daily learned of more or less be
ing killed on both sides. Vengeance seems to be the
chief object of their temporary abode in the hills and
woods. The darkey. it is said, is largely represented
in their rendezvoused habitations, and when a fight
takes place freely assists. Not unfreqUently they
issue forth and give the Confederates battle in regu
lar skirmish. They are the terror of conscript
agents everywhere.
Jett Davis' proclamation, issued about August 10,
offering a free pardon to deserters, did not have the
eifeet contemplated, except in very rare Matsu= i
and iso great svarthe disaffection that in many case.
the cavalry sent out to capture the fugitives would,
with their officers, join the fugitives, and swell their
ranks. When opportunities offered ' detachments
would make their way to the Union lines from their
forest hiding.places.
THIRY/LB AND BAT•GRADDIUN3.
Throughout the — entire South thel people, Jew
and Gentile, bond and free, indulge in petty thefts
and robbery. A traveller cannot put his boots out
side of his door at night to be cleaned without
awakening in the morning to flad them missing. If
a bat is lett in the hall or at a hatraek, it takes legs
and leaves. So expert are some of the °binary that
if a man stretches himself in a railway station for a
nap, while waiting for a train they will relieve him
of Pis overcoat without awaking him. On the de
pat tore of every train a battalion of soldiers, ne•
velem, and citiz
t ens, line the platform, and as the
train moves out the , grab indiscriminately the hats
and satchels of all who may be standing on the plat
loins of the ears. To jump off Is dangerous, and
this, with the certainty of being delayed a day more,
makes the victim submit with the best grace possi

out of vindictiveness, would, before disbanding her

British authority from every province in North

and be cautious. On the other hand, the interest
the Emperor has at stake in Mexico must prompt a
very different course on the part of France. Üby
compulsion or compromise we were to return to the
Union what would become of the French army, and
Napoleon's schemes in Mexico? He knows, as we

Proposed Change of the Rebel Capital.
(Washington Correspondence of the Tribune. ]
It will be interestine to your readers to know that
it has been decided to remove or change the rebel
capital from Richmond to Columbia, S. 0. I. say
decided, but perhaps I should have said almost deaf
ded—the President and his Cabinet, including Mr.
Stddon, who is a Virginian, and Governer Letoher,'
Quartermaster General It/yens; and many other pro
minent Virginians, being entirely in favor of it. So
it may be said to be decided. The persistent efibrtx
and repeated failures of the Unionietc to take Rich
mondffnn duce the belief that neat summer a suf f icient .
force will be concentrated to capture the city, and'
they consider that the fall of the capital would have
not tally a damaging eireet abroad, but would excite
ruinous discouragement among their friends at halite.
In a military point of view, they believe, or affect to,
believe, that the loss of Richmond, if not the capi
tal, would amount to little, as did—as they tell their
deluded followers—the capture of 'New Orleans,
Vicksburg, and Port Hudson. But of this they are
ilinlOtibtedly satisfied, that Richmond is not so safe
or defensive a place for their capital as Columbia.
At this place the State of South Carolina engaged
hi the construction of a State House on a magni
ficent scale, but soon after the beginning of the War
the work was suspended. The structure, with a
few additions and alterations, Could be made very

A Terrible Winter Disst - era
CFrom the Detroit Tribune.
By a passenger who arrived here on the Central
Railroad last night, from the West, we learn of one
of, the most fearful and heartrending affairs that has
ever occurred in this section of the country, viz
that a family of seven persons were frozen to death
during the cold weather on Friday last. About
thirty miles from the boundary line between Mold
tan and Indiana, in the latter State, about midway
etween Centreville and Grown Potat t lived a Gat
man, With Inc wife and live children, named Krutzer.
The oldest was a boy of seven years of age, the next
boy of five, and three girls, all of less than the boys,
the youngest but an infant.
The country where thelamily resided is very roll
ing, and the snow had drifted into the hollows,
making the roads almost, if not wholly, impassable
.for even pedestrians.
The driver of the stage coach coming from Crown
Point to Lake, via Centreville, found that ffrutzerfs
dwelling had been burned to the ground, it is sup-
posed the night previous, but none of the family
were to be seen. About a mile further on, however,
he was horrified to find the father and two boys
frozen to death. The boys were in the father's arms,
and it is supposed that he bad fallen with the after
having been so far affected with the frost as not to
be able to Drafted. The three corpses werelplaced in
the stage, but before it had proceeded more than a
quarter of a mile on its destination, the body of the
oldest girl was found in a snow.drift, with a shawl
wrapped Closely around it where it had doubtless
been deposited by its wear; mother, while yet alive,
in the hope that some chance traveller might rescue
ft from an impending fate. •
This corpse too, was placed in the coach, and again
.it started on its way. only, to find, after travelling a
abort distance, the lifeless remains of the mother,
with the two youngest children. The body of the
mother was standing erect in a snow drift, with the
children in her arms,* the youngest being at the
breast.
The seven lifeless bodies were conveyed to Cen
treville by.the driver of the stage, at which place
they were decently interred by the inhabitants.
This is certainly the most appalling disaster that
it has ever been bur duty to record, and the bare re
cital of the facts could not fail to bring a shudder
even to a heart of stone. A whole family ushered
into the presence of their Creator, and none to tell
the tale of suffering.
The Holmes' Mole Tragedy—Arrest of the
Supposed Murderer.
Mom the New Bedford *Grimy. Jan. 11.3
From a correspondent itt Holmes' Hole, writing
on Friday evening lest, we ^ learn of the.arrest of
Gustavus D. Smit h of. that village, on a charge of
the minder of William C. Luce, on the evening of
December 22. The- groundrfor the arrest are as foi
/owe : On the evening of the murder Smith was ab
sent from home for an hour and a half, and of his
movements during that time he can give no clear
account. It is ascertained, by a close personal in
quiry, that he entered no building in thetinte named,
unless it was Luce's store. He says he was look
leg watcher. for his eick wife, and on his return
home named one lady on whom he had ealled, and
told the reason she assigned for not coming. That
lady states that she did not see Smith on that even
ing, but that the conversation he repeats was had
some four weeks previous. Two other places were
given by him as having been visited, at neither of
which was he seen. He save further, that on that
night, he did not get below Main street, and that he
saw no one of the village people with whom he
spoke. There is conclusive proof that about the
time the murder most have taken place Smith was
seen coming out of the lane by Luce's store, by a
Woman, Who spoke to him, and to whom he made
very strange reply , . Since the murder, hie conduct
has been certainly singular. He was not at the
funeral of the murdered man, nor at the public:
meeting of the citizens, and has spoken of the mat
ter as a trifling affair. It is a significant feat, too,
that he directed suspicion to the three sailors at first
implicated,making statements showing that on that
evening he was in tbe vicinity of Luoe's store. The
facts, that for an hour and a liar during that even
ing he can give no account of himself; that about
the time of the murder he was near Luce's store ;
and that, though in narrow circumstances and with
a sick wife, he has done nothing for ten months, are
certainly very damaging.

' A E32€18 11701.7DN11PC5. REIrrILITT.
I believe—and I say I beliele because I have only
heed throes the treat on3e—that 3 have discovered a
zone of wonderful-fertility in stretches in
a line with the equator Dom east tb-wezt, and its_
fertility perfectly astonished' me. I have shown
that the altitude of .the country is between 3,000 and,
41,000 feet ; that in' the .very heart of the country
there in a great mountain group, which are the rain
bearers for fertilizing the country, and. the conse
quence Is, that throughout the whole duration of
the twelve months there is a fall of rain. ortan ave
rage of tWo ar three inchea each day. There is a.
temperature as mild as that of this- country Id sum
mer ; and with the moisture, heat, and A rick soil
combined, you can imagine what the rerun muse be.
And although the climate is so temperate, it la the.
most healthy of all the regions In which I have tom. '
veiled. It may be said that I am to come extent
acclimatised, but Itdossltjudge from the effect of the
climate neon myself alone. There are Arab Mer
chants and others who lay that there-is 'no place• so
healthy as the equatorial - regions. Now, gains.
men, as this country so praline; as its animate le
so genial, as all fasts - tend to show thatyproperly
developed, it is as fertile as any country in the
world, I think lostead *of devoting , our attention to
places more distant from the equator, where there'
are great rain', great droughts ' and fearful famines,
we should look to it. if means were taken to.aolo.
nize it, there would, I am sure, be ample repayment.
LATBI4I.' CHEISTIANITY IN ABRICA
.If Milllionaries ehould again enter Africa, I multi
say that this region is especially the spot to which .
they should direct their attention—[hear]—edd it
ever they should do so they will meet there a peftle
who are not purely heathen, but who, having ema
nated from the Abyssinian !stock, have the germof
Christianity within them. [Hear, hear.] I wish
• particularly to draw the attention or clergymen to
these people. I. am certain that U the kings who
rule the country could bepleited by our missionaries,
they Would heartily receive them, for they told me
so. [" Hear, hear," and applause I When I spoke
to them of the power of knowledge, they wished
that I should educate their children, but I was fear-
Jul that if those children were brought to this eoun•
try, they would not desire to return to their homes.
I therefore told them that I would mend missionaries
to them, and as they all accepted ,the view whicfh I
then expressed, I feel certain that they are now ex
pecting their arrival.
ZINGBO CLIMGYMBN AND AMBASBADOM3
You have read, dOubtielli, Of the number of /Ives
which are sacrificed in - the kingdom of Uganda alone
each year. It is really very fearful; but it is not
only of those that are executed, but those also who
are carried off' by slavery, that cause that country
to be in so turbulent and so excited a state. Really,
something ought to be done to put a atop to this.
[Hear, hear.] I would willin gly go myself and
lead the way. [Applause.] But I would prefer
that to these regions there should go certain mis.
sionarles under such - an able guide as Dr, Liv
ingstone. [Hear, hear.' There should also be
employed in the work negro, clergymen, of
whom many are to be found On the western
coast. Of course there could be - as many young bloods
as would like to go, being careful to ascertain that
they are constituted for it, bearing in mind that in
Africa the climate is during the whole year - of an
equal temperature. In England we enjoyed better
health, because we were accustomed to the change,
and we can never thrive so well elsewhere until we
have been there a certain time, and have got ac
climatized. But, gentlemen, in addition to the
clergy their ought to be ambassadors to Africa—
men with authority' emanating from our Govern.
ment, and who, trading with the kings, would be
able to put a atop to the diabolical system of the
slave trade—[" hear, hoar, ,, and applause]—which
is ruining the ountry, and more especially these
semi-Christians inhabiting the district through
which I have gone. [Applause.] It is true that
these people forget their Christianity, but it is still
latent in them.
THE eLAvia TRADE.
At the same time' those vile traders who, instead
of purchasing the ivory with beads, take many more
bullets than anything else, and shoot down the na
tives or steal them away, and rob them of their oat
tle, have rendered the country so insecure that no
one can travel through it unless he has a force su
perior to that of the native races. I maintain that
we are paying thousands upon thousands of pounds
in a fruitless manner in our etlbrts to stop the slave
trade there. Hitherto we have directed our efforts
principally to running down slavers instead of, as I
think we ought to do, Matting the negroes to stand
up for themselves. [Hear, hear.] The African is a
very intelligent creature. I have traveled with
many of them, who, although formerly, when in
slavery, they considered themselves the property of
their masters, because they bad been purchased, and
would neither kill nor desert them, now declare
that the degradations of their countrymen who are
transported into slavery have so excited them that
if a good Spirit were infused into them they would
rise to a man and help one another to lump down
the traffic.
A PLAN TO COLONIZE AND BIIPPRESS THE SLAVE
The more direct plan of doing this would be by or
ganizing an _expedition in the following way. In
the tint plaee let there be negro ddpdta along the
east and the west coasts of Africa assisting emanci
pated slaves; let these be trained as sailors and
taught the English language, so that they may as
sist our own navigators ; let the natives, after being
drilled, be taken across the continent of Africa, and
shown the positions in which the trade chiefly rami
fies, and then y•reyent the merchants conveying
slaves to the ports. [Hear, hear.] By this an or
ganization would be created which would tend to
the entiresuppression of the slave trade.
Iwooed" e ngage in it myself if the Govern
ment felt inclined to support me in it. After the
dfpOts had been formed, I would take in the aggro.
gate 500 men, a few from each station, and I would
then commence from the east coast of Africa and
march across along the equator to the west coast.
I would, et the same time, show those spots which
are most advantageous to us in a mercantile point
of view, and which would pave the way for a system
of—l won't say colonization—NO civilization, and
colonization will necessarily follow. [Hear, hear.]
That la matter Which we need not doubt for one
moment, for the fact is the neg ro cannot govern his
own land, and the land is suc hthat it will be the •
subject of contention before long. Austria has al
ready her eye upon it. An Austrian gentleman has
gone out there, and his object cannot be to discover
the source of the Nile, because it is settled.

English phyaieian. In 1859 the Ring attempted, in
a fit of jealousy, to murder his secretary, He pro
posed then to abdicate, but was persuaded to retain
hispleee. It is thought that during the lad few years.
he has been more under the influence of the English
clergymen than formerly. His brother succeeds-to
