Mr. Abercrombie, 3 cans jelly. To "Hospital Stores, ANES, to cive you further particulars of the sad casualty at Milton Junction, yesterday, eight miles north of here, by the explosion ot a locomotive of the Chicago Northwestern Railroad Company. A heacy freight train, drawn by two engines, arrived at the Junction in advance of the passenger train bound south. The freight switched off on the aide track, to eive the passenger train the precedence, the engines of the former standing side by side with the passenger coaches, when the explosion took place.

It actually threw the passenger coach next to the rear over on its side, sending fragments of iron and wood into the air forty or thoorth, nnd the which it hns been botuility with and that too when it is Mriclly a war ilrfi'nsive of the unity ntid of tbo government. But for this hostility we believe the war would have long ago been brought to a close. Nothing has BO kept up the courage of the rebels as the fact that then- was pnrly at the North opposed to the wiir. When this parly was strongest the ivbols were in boot hope, and when "after election, this hostility WHS "omewhat allayed, the rebel officers no lonwrlib-dto'lmve their men read pur pup'irs, beemiBO a deserter paid, they did not contain any Rood news.

The assembling ofour State Legislature, which will take plncc in a few days, gives rise to many'important questions. Ihe first subject to engage- their attention will be the selection of officers. In the Senate, Lieut. Gov. Spoonc-r.

who acted as president pro during the latter part of the last Bcasion. will now be its presiding officer, vO.fKi.-io. There are, however, a clerk, sergeant-at-arms, postmaster, to be chosen. For these offices there are a great many aspirants, but we have ns yet he-rd of no prominent candidates. In the Assembly all the principal officers are elected, and consequently the selections are looked for with great interest, as indicating the course of policy which is intended 10 be pursued.

If a strict partisan is chosen for Speaker, we anticipate a still closer drawing of the party lines, while public interests are forgotten and neglected. We hope, however, that such will not be the fact, and that Republicans, who so warmly invited men of opposite politics to unite with them in gaining a Union victory will not overlook, in the day of their triumph, si) important nn element to their late success.

On the Polish queslion, Messrs, ttoeoult and Ilaviri, the editors of the Opinion Nationale and of the Siecle, were entirely in favor of war.

M. Thiers entirely opposed, and in favor' of leaving this question in the hands of the government. There was BO much difference of opinion on that point that it waa rcaolved that each member of the opposition should be left free to express his individual sentiments. When the discussion of individual liberty comes on there will be warm work, for in thia is comprised the law for public safety, a law by which any man of plotting against the eovernment can be taken from his domicile at any hour of the day or night without a moment's warning, and be incarcerated in some prison or transported to Cayenne.

On Tuesday of last week Schriner's Wife Flizabeth, died.yery suddenly and was buried the next day. i Suspicions of foul play were aroused among the neighbors, and Schriner was arrested.

THE JANESVIU.K Janesville Gazette now cornea to ua with the new proprietor Thomson and Roberts, at the helm, and as much as we think of Charley Uolt, and reeret that be has left the fratcr- nity, we must say there is danger of the former management losing its laurels. The new proprietors intend to come with new dress, and would have done so before now, but for the delay occasioned by the cold weather. They have increased the amount of reading matter, and if there are about the head, and his hands and limbs badly scalded. The Gladiator waa run by Mr. Ohoate, one of the most experienced men in hia position on the road.

He claims he had two KuagfBof water in hia engine and only ninety pounds of steam. If thia be true no blame can be attached to him, and the cause of the explosion must have been some unknown flaw in the boiler. The Madison Journal of yesterday has the following: FATAL LOCOMOTIVE are indebted for the following particulars of the locomotive explosion at Milton Junction, be tween 5 and o'clock yesterday afternoon to Mr. M.

The freight train from Fond du Lac arrived about 5 clock, and switched oil on the side track for the Express from the same direction to 5hcre were two engines attached to the freight, und their head of steam was unusually high in order to overcome the resistance of the snow. In due time the Express train arrived, and was so long that some of its cars were alongside the freight The ladies' car, loaded with fair freight, was directly opposite to nnd- within a lew feet of the engine "Gladiator," the former on the main track and the latter on the switch. The cars had occupied their relative positions for some time; passengers for the Prairie du Chien road bad given place to crowds for Chicago, and everything approached readinesB for starting, when a great explosion occurred. In an instant th" luxurious passenger car was a melancholy wreck, and its happy, laughing occupants became fearfully aware of the fact that "in the midst of life we are in death." That part of the boiler surrounding the fire-box burst into a thousand fragments, tearing out the side of the car from floor to ceiling, hurling splinters, seats and debris in every direction, and killing, wounding and mangling the following persons Mrs.

Phelps, of Ohio, an aged lady, who had been on a visit to friends in Oshkosh, and was returning to her home. She sat in the seat nearest the engine, and was killed almost instantly. Mr. A. B.

The engineer and fireman were absent at the time, probably getting refreshment.and there were, as usual in such cases, many rumors as to the cause of the accident, flying around one alleging that the engineer had stated his intention to make time, if it took 300 pounda of steam to do it, and another that he had declared the engine unfit for and that it could not bear more than 70 pounds.

An intelligent oflicer, serving with the New Mexican volunteers, has furnished us with the results of some of his observations in the Navajo country. MOVEMENT OF THB XAVAJOES.

They lost all their corn crop, and being obliged to fly rapidly before our troops, left the old men, women and children behind them these latter escaped to the mountains, and endeavor to sustain life by subsisting on "pinon," a small nut found on a -species of vine bearing that name.

LINCOLN'S CHARACTER.

The Rev. Henry Fowler, of Auburn, N. in a Thanksgiving sermon delivered at that place, thus spoke of the President: The explanation for his every act is this: He executes the will of tha people. He represents a controlling majority. If he be slow it is because the people are slow.

If he has done a foolish act, it was the stupidity of the people which impelled it. His wisdom consists in carrying out the good sense of the nation.

Indeed, in character and culture he is a fair representative of the average American.

by the mighty march of events, whether we are willing or unwilling." AB.OUT CERTAIN H7MNS. Hymns have sometimes been curiously used in stirring times, especially about the Reformation period. They have played their part in battle. At the famous battle of Lenthen, one of Henmau's hymns was raised by a regiment before going into the fight, and one after another took it up, until all the columns were singing it as they advanced. "Shall I silence them?" the general asked, as he rode np to the stern, tobacco-loving, heroic King Fritz "No; with such soldiers God will give me the victory 1" and leaping down among the ranks and crying, "Now, children, in God's name 1" and he led them into battle.

Wben the battle was won, the field was strewn with dead and was night, and the soldiers were weary. Then one began to sing a hymn of thanksgiving; the bands joined in, and presently it rose from the army in full, and the mighty chorus soon reached and greatly, moved the King, who turned round, exclaiming, "What a power there is in religion It was at the great battle of Leipzio that Gustavo's Adolphus sang, with his army, Lather's "Carmen Heroicum," and, after that, he thanked. God for the victory in a stanza of the same hymn. The "Te Denm" wen the fight at Leignitz; it was a "Poor Sinner's Song" of Luther's that the peasants raised before the battle of Frankenhausen; and brave Earl Old, en- burg triumphed at Drakenbnrg by the song of Simeon. So curiously are the lives off those hymns interwoven with the fiercest human struggles and profoundest human kings and politics, and famons battles that determined the fate of poor peasants and lonely arid nameless crimes that have the reddest stains in history, and softening of rugged and wild hearts.

And it is pleasant to take np a hymn that has connected itself with past events, and can be traced into many a house and jeart by its comfortable thoughts. Her- wrt's "Hymn on Sunday" gains a certain mournful delicacy when we know that sung it himself upon his deaih-bed; that, Ua- AN EPISCOPAL OPINION. terfisted in ils adversities and prosperity; giving to it the unremitting labor tne vigor of life, it seemB as if I ought to nolu Ifl 'vi Ifl Oa ceo- nts on, steam after the custom of the The establishment is of about gOO hen power. rience character.

FELLOW CrnzExs: Profoundly grateful for the honor you have conferred upon me, in calling me by your suffrages to the responsible position of Chief Executive of this great and prosperous State, I appear before you to day to take the oath required by law, before entering upon the discharge of the important duties of the position you lave assigned me. In assuming this important trust, I am not unmindful of my inexperience and want of ability, yet hoping for the same kind forbearance that I have ever experienced "Like sweat (swan, 1 Hia Maker's. anf own Gebhardt himself died repeating one of hia own hymns, and even theivery words: "Hhnnfedeath has power to kill."

Oconomowoc Fitzgerald, Edward Lewis Anderson, Thomas a Griffith, Fred Schroeder, John Seedorf, Christopher Shurker, Wm Wright. Gummo. Tesch, Samuel atyour hands, with the constitutions and laws of the General and State Governments as my guide, and with a firm reliance upon Him whose wisdom it behooves us not to question, I trust I may be able to discharge its duties in a manner acceptable to the people.

You will doubtleas expect of me at this time a brief exposition of the general policy that will govern my administration. It has often been remarked, and I fear with too much truth, that public oflicers are prone to use their first term of ofilce to secure a re-election. Not expecting or desiring again to be a candidate for this or any other public position, I trust thia motive will not influence my action. In whatever I may do, I shall, with a mind free from party prejudice, endeavor to consult the beat interests of the people, regardless of friends or loes, or my own private interests. It shaU be my aim to inculcate principles of morality, foster benevolent institutions, observe the closest economy in public expenditures compatible with the public good, promote the interests of education, "agriculture, manufactures, mining and commerce, and to aid iu developing all those natural resources with which our atate is so richly endowed.

Among the important duties devolved upon the Executive at this time are those connected with our soldiers in the field. They went forth to fight the battles of the nation under pledges of support. Good faith, honor, justice and humanity require that theso promises should be redeemed, by filling up their thinned ranks, caring for their sick in hospitals and their families at home. No effort on my part shall be wanting to redeem these pledges. Perhaps no more important and trying duties will engage our attention than those connected with the General Government.

A wicked rebellion is now raging in our midst, threatening the life of the nation. Civil war, the great bane of a free Government, inaugurated with the avowed object of dismembering our glorious Union. This mast never fce. This great crime against God must not be permitted. No, let us rather -'atrike till the laat armed foe expires." Would we keep alive the principles which underlie our government until thrones ahall have crumbled and those who sit upon them are remembered no more, we must draw the sword of the righteous and roll back the dark cloud lhat now threatens our once peaceful homes.

We mnat punish treason, and smite the oppressor. We must pay the debt of allegiance we owe to the General Government. We mast support and sustain the Government in this hour of its peril. To thia end I shall co-operate with. the- officers of the General Government in those measures deemed necessary for its safety.

In. this I shall occupy no middle ground-. A few Congressmen on the train to-day entered into a conversation about the merits of different Generals in our army, in the course of which one of them told the following story about General Grant: "I knew Ulysses Grant when he was a little'bpy. We used to go to school together, near Georgetown, Brown county, Ohio, The boya used to plague him dreadfully about a horse trade he once made. When he was about twelve years old, his father sent him a few miles into the country to buy a horse from a man named Ralston.
