Th* Oshaloosa Convention.»What KM
••one.
In our issue of hunday last, it will
be remembered, that we co ied a short
•ottco from a Burlington paper in re
gard to the O*kalo»sa Railroad conven­
tion, to the efleet that tli conventioti
had adjourned without doing anything.
The convention, as wo have previously
Informed our readers, was called by
Certain enemies of the Mississippi and
Missouri Railroad Company for the
purpose of diverting the promised aid
project with avidity and each determ­
ined in its own mind that its road
should be that "other road,1' and both
places were consequently enthusiastic
in favor of the road and furious at any
one who dared to laugh at them.

nave its nose in almost e\er\ thing, j1HVC

chance tbe convention might resolve
to advise the completion of its branch
of tbe Mississippi and Missouri railroad

ted in the "DesMoincs Yalley" railroad

Conflicting elements, each determined
U it could not carry out its own point
to defeat the plans of the others, it may
be imagined, was not particularly un-

The countics represented were the fol­
lowing Lee, DesMoines, Yan Huren,
Jefferson, Wapello, Mahaska, Keokuk,
Muscatine, Johnson, Marion, Powe­
shiek, Polk, Tama, Jilackhawk, and
the whole number ot votes allowed to
be cast was two hundred and seventy.
After a great deal of somewhat excited
discussion, the following resolutions in
fa/or of the Keokuk road were passed

We notice by mir New York ex­
changes, that a bill bus l« en introduced
into the legislature of the State of
New York for the purpose of regulating
he Theatres of the State. Anion),
other provisions it makes it a misde
meanor, punishable by tine and impris­
onment for any manager of any
Theatre to admit any minor, unless
accompanied by his parent or guardiau.

tbat it will be continually evaded.—

urchins who fill the galleries of the
Metropolitan Temples of the J'rama,
will collect together and employ sjme
ragged, dirty man who has the good
fortune to l»e over twenty-one years of
age, to act as guardiau for thcrn all. If
the bill is passed we predict that a
thriving trade in guardians," will at
once grow up.
Illegal Divorcee.—The ladtana I.aw.
Judge Dalies' has recently promul
gated an opinion in the ease of M'«if
lert ag-t. M'liitFert, which, if sustained
will have the effect of annulling many
of the judgements of divorce granted
in the State of ludiana and elsewhere.
It appears that, iii the case under
consideration, the parties were married
in this State in September, 1850, but
alter living together for a i"W weeks,
they sepcratcd, and the husband tile 1
a bill for a div ice, on the ground of
physic incapacity on the part of the
wife, which she denied in her answer.
In October, Im.'iI, an order was
made staying all proceedings on the
part of the husband in consejuet. of
his neglect to comply with an order
previously made, requiring him to pay
court fees and alimony. In January.
Itt.V-', Mr. .M'«irtert went to Indiana,
leaving his wife in this State, where
she has since remained. After remain

bill against Mrs M'^itb rt for a divorce

his intercourse with tbe woman to

adulterous.
Upon the authority of Yischee vs.

of Indiana never had jurisdiction of
Mrs. «itlert, and that tbe proceedings

A 1'i.KAbing IMIHENT.—Toward
evening yesterday, we witnessed a
little incident exhibiting the predom
inance ot the better feelings and sym
pathics without ostentation—a rare
case now-a-days As a genteel well
dressed lady was passing along Fulton
street, sii.) obseived a couple of little
girls with tattered garments and shoe
less feet. She immediately beckoned
them to her side, and without a word,
taking them by the hand led them into
the store of Mr. Beville, Xo. JO Fulton
street, where she had each fitted with
a pair ot neat and comfortable shoes,
and sent them on their way homeward
rejoicing, the joy beaming forth on
their youthful countenances seemingly
being mirrored back in the gentle face
of their kind benefactress. What
devotee of Mammon would not have
given dollars without number to have
felt the peace of mind and gladness of
spirit enjoyed by this benevolent .ady
and yet how cheaply was this hapiness
purchased.—N.
Y. Xews.
Female JIk.HWAYMLN.—The Peoria pa
pers give an account of a man from Brim
field, in that county, who after celling his
wheat, placed the proceeds in his boot for
better security, and then started ont fur a
walk. He waa met ly two persons who
turned out to be girls in men's clothes and
iuvited to "smile" at a neighboring saloon,
where they were met, as the party states,
by two "remarkably pretty girV Alter
drinking they proposed to "see him home,
which offer he accepted. He had not pro
ceeded far when all seized and gagged him
and rifled his pockets of some small change
not finding the money in hie boot.

A
DIBASTROIH FIRE ALMO8T.--~A
bed in the third story of the Nevada
House at Mu«catinc was discovered to
be on fire on Friday forenoon, but be­
fore any serious damage was done, the
fire was extinguished. It was fortu­
nate that the discovery was made in
time, as iu a few minutes more the
building would have ignited, and on
account ot the course of the wind^
the fire would have caused the destruc­
tion of a number of adjoining honses.
It was supposed the bed caught fir
from sparks which fell out of a flue of
the chimney. The bedding was con­
sumed and the bedstead considerably
burned.

was in magnificent order, and the
amnscraent was pursued with all the
zest that this most graceful and invig­
orating of exercises gives rise to. Some
twenty of the ladies were mounted on
ruuncrs, at once, and managed to do a
good deal of laughing, screaming, and
a very little skating—some two or
three, however, we are told, succecdcd
admirably. There isn't the slightest
use of a lady's trying to make a grace­

as well try to bestride a mustang or

of those present yesterday, are propo­

them for service. |Mr. M. being nnablc
to pay them at the time, and having
returned to his residence at Epworth,
they insisted on staying in the house
as boarders, a favor which the new pro­
prietors refused to grant, and ordered
them off. Some of them were rather
hasty in language and conduct, and at
the instance of one of the proprietors
the whole party, including four or five

The leading tilliliunters are about convert

(it is credibly stated) silver and gold occur
in inexhaustilde quantities, under a soil of
unsurpassed richness. Nearly all the lead

expeditions, from lleaniugsen down, are to
join the exodus.
0T Dr. Hodges, a young doctor of Stark
county, is about getting driven from his
practice hy the just indignation of some
citizens of little Mark. The young gentle
man, "all tho way from New Yoik City,"
has presumed to inculcate among the citi
zens of th** Went a code cf morals which
are repulsive to their native virtue. He
evidently did not understand the people
with whom he was dealing, although he
found one victim of his snares, tie had
taken occasion to slander the entire female
community, near about where he resided
and at last ineratiated himself into the fam

bullets have thus been fired, three of which
passed throngh the window, and one
