Too WHITE TO BE MARRIED.—A negro named
Miles',Jones, living at Rock Island,lllinois, has ;
for a long Unto been courting a white girl in I
this city, named Sarah Davis. His wooing
was successful, so far as obtaining the consent ;
of the lady to become his wife. To obtain a
license from the clerk of the court Miles swore
that his intended was three-quarters black ;
but upon application to the Squire he thought
Sarah was too, white to allow him to perform
the marriage ceremony without violating the
laws of the State. Miles is hunting up testi-
mony to prove that the girl is three-quarters
black. These facts we gather from the Rock
Island Republican, which is responsible for
their truth.

• Distressing Calamity.
A Family of Eleven Frozen to Death.—An
old friend informs that a neighbor of his resid
ing upon a cold, bleak portiUn of the suburbs,
has been visited by a dreadful calamity, one
most afflicting to the patties bereft, and which
made us shudder when he, in a feeling manner,
broached to us the sad intelligence. The whole
()Mining of family—eleven in number—frozen,
literally frozen to death !
It is too well known that Wednesday night !
was ono of the very coldest that has transpired
for many a year in this latitude ; and that suf
fering was intense. The miserable wreck of a
shanty in which this large family were liar.
bored wa scarce fit to protect the hardiest of
the brut; creation. Not a flame nor a spark
of fire was beneath the roof to cheer their coun
tenances nor to warm their little toeses ; but
there they were compelled to remain during the
entire cold and bitter night—no friend knowing!
I nor dreaming of the intense suffering to which
they were being subjected ; yet it is not to be
doubted that had they been only able to make
known to the community the precise nature of
their distress, the hand of charity would have
been extended at least as far as to render them
better housed. But this was unfortunately not
so ; and in the mornin' when a guardian of
the family looked into the miserable residence,
his feelings were deeply touched at seeing the
entire 11 frozen stiff in death ; and he at once
censured himself for not having exercised a
better protective care over the family. The
bereaved mother of the eleven little ones was
yet alive, and we are informed is doing "as
well as could be expected under the peculiar
circumstances." The father is a perfect brute,
a perfect hug, and has not been seen by the
mother fur several months.
