BISHOP M'lLVAINE CARRIED OFF BY ICE ON THE OHIO RIVER. Miraculovt Escape. The following letter written by Rev. C. M. Butler, late chapliin to the United States Senate, gives a thrilling accou at of the recent narrow-escape-from an awful death of the Right Rev. Bishop Mcllvaine and. a large party of felloe -travelers, on the Ohio river. We find it in a re cent number of the Western Episcopalian, published in Ohio: I Cixci.vsati, Eebruary 5, 1S55. OnfThursday morning, Jaurary 30 Bishop Mcllvaine Btarted for Cincinnati, on; his return from a visit to Lou isville. He took the steam ferrv-boat a. Louisville, for the purpose'of crossing the river and taking his seat in the JefTersonville train. The day was bitter cold, and the Ohio was full of runniiigice, going down in large fields to the falls which lie-just below Louisville. The boat iccaine fixed, in the middle of the river, in a large i i-t u A 'A- ma.ssiol solid ice, anu cuum uciluci auyuiiue uor rcceue. InsUibtlv she was at the mercy of the current, and began to mtjve towards the falls. The imminence of the dan ger bfecame at once apparent. There were about two hundi-ed passengers on boards-men, women and children--besides omnibuses, wagons, horses and their at tendants. It now seemed almost certaiu that all must be lost. Unjier Bishop Mcllvaine's care wa3 a daughter of Bish--op Srith. The Hev. Mr. Sehon, a Methodist minister of Louiiville, and his wife, were also on board. It seemed impossible that a soul could1 survive if the boat should be wrecked on the falls. The current, the cold, the break ers, tile eddies, the ice breaking ovar the falls, would havelrcndered escape even for the strongest an4 hard iest swimmer impossible. Help from either shore could not be extended so long as the drifting continued. Nothing Could reach the boat in time to rescue a single person. Inevitable death was all that the most fearless and confident could see before them. The boat and pas seng rs were given up on the shore. Where was help to come from ? Some there were on board who did know where to look ; and did look there, where all true help is found in time of need. The Bisho? then said to Mr. Sehon that he would go into ihe room where the women were, and draw their minds-to prayer. They went together ; but though the utmost caution was used to prevent alarm, the word praver was no sooner uttered than the lamentations made it intpossible for prayer to be heard.- After endeavoring in vaiu to calm these poor people, some of the calm ones' with Mr. and Mrs, Sehon, and Miss Smith, gathered clost around the Bishop, as he offered, a brief and ap propriate prayer. After this there was more composure. And now the hand of the Lord appeared. Man could do nothlrig. The boat was drifting on to its apparent inevita ble Wreck But was it- not. God's guiding in answer to. prar? she struck the hiadrn reef at the commence ment of the rapids. That was the salvation, through it was hot then known or recognised as such. Haw long the boat could hold that place against the pressure of the current, and the prodigious niimentu n of trie acres of ii-e which constantly struck and ground against it : how soon she would be pressed over, or lifted up abd turned over, or crushed under the accumulating mass of ice, where no help'could reach htsr, no one con id say. Kaeh new oneset of iee was watchvd with intense anxiety, lint that which was terror to those on bpard proved to he one of God's instruments for their safetlv. As the . iee struck against the boat, if formed suchj a mass that it rested on the rock beneath and form ed aj breakwater ; and the more violent was the onset of tlc iee, the more strong and massive did it become. Thoiboat lay, as it were, under the lee of this hill of ice,' though some of her length was still unprotected. Iuj this passive resistance to the assaults of the current andjee, the boat l'aytwo hours, before help came. Mean while the passengers could not see what was doing. Fiotn the Louisville shore they were distant half a mile, and ion the Indiana shore were no inhabitants. During thisime high rewards were offered on the Louisville sidefto any one who would attempt a rescue. The clerk of the Jacob Strader had a son in the stranded boat, and offered a large price for. his deliverance. The' life-boat of tlje Strader was launched, and three men came out in her, and took out the youth and two young women con nected with the officers of the Strader. It took the boat an h ur to- get back. ) " 1 In the course of another hour, somelfour or fiveJ boats, capable of containing each from four to fjvepesons, came out rom either shore. Meanwhile te women badbecor.ie quite composed. Many of them behaved in a very exem plary way throughout the whole pen d. As soon as these skiffs came near to the boat, the determination seethed unanimous that the w'omen should all go first, andithis determination was carried out. The colored wo- men were as kindly cared for as the white. Who ever canie first entered the boats first. The last woman that canje was a white woman. Such as had husbands were allowed to have them with them. The Rev. Mr. Sehon we'it as was proper, with his wife, in the stcond boat, andBishop Mellvane consigned to him the care of Miss Smith, and bade them farewell. Obr good Bishop was strongly urged by those in fbo skiff and on the b tat, to go with the lady in-his charge ; but he resolutely refused to avail himself of the privilege which all seemed anxious to accord to his age andicharacter. One or two colored men were allowed 1 r to gb in the skiff's with their wives. Xot a word of in terference or remonstrance in reference to this arrange nienjt was uttered. Remember the Arctic," was heard as tie women were put in. All the while the ice was crusjhing against the boat, and none knew how soon she would be driven where no boats could reach her. At lengkh the last woman, as it was supposed, had been put on, nd the boat was not full. At the urgency of those who! were most active, Bishop Mc livable consented to get into the skiff. But before it had pushed off another wo man! was found, and he at once called to Let- to come and takei his place, " T?e nuxt re'icf was a flatboaf- &rm b-v Messers.- Gibj Smith i. Co., of Louisville, to whosoever would tuksf it. It was manned by a gallant crew who knew that puelj a craft must take the falls. Two falls pilots came in hj?r. One steered and the other commanded. Cap tain; Hamilton, a cool and intrepid man, took the com mand. On her flush deck, which was even with her sides, andjeovered with straw, about fifty men, of whom Bishop Mcivaine was one, were placed. As there was not roon to stand, because of the oars, nor room to sit, they weijje compelled to kneel. By 'his time the boats which " hadtput offhadbeo'n carried down, and were just able to rfeaeh the island at the head of the falls, where there waS much suffering from cold, and whence the women with difficulty got o the Kentucky shore. . f of tjie s the crew of the flatboat started for their fearful trial falls, Captain Hamilton ordered silence. "Let no one! speak but me,'' he said. He ordered the draught of the boat to bemeasured. The answer was: ' It is filtden inches." lie answered: " It is a poor chance ;"' andj evidently thought the case very desperate. He had notjexpected that the boat would be loaded so heavily. Hisf effort was to reach a particular chute of the falls, as thai which alone afforded any hope of a passage. All this had occupied but a minute or two. The powerful current hadjbronght the flat almost to the spot where, in another instant, she was to be wrecked, and all lost in the break ers and ice, or they were to be safe. There was perfect silence. What a solemn moment ! How appropriate was the Jcneeling position which was maintained ! The Lord saw: those hearts that were before him in a corresponding attitude of prayer and faith. ' . Our beloved bishop sheltered a poor, shivering colored boy iuuder his cloak; and commended himself and his fel lowjvoyagers with composure and confidence to his cov enant Lord and Saviour. In the crisis of passing down the'ehute the boat struck. It seemed then that all was lost;! The silence was unbroken. Grating over the rock, she was a moment free, and then'struck. Her bottom gra ted :on the reef-not a word was spoken the boat float ed en the captain cried out, "Try the pilmp !'' "No wa ter" was the answer. God had delivered them ! The geijtlenian who kneeled next to the bishop heard him solemnly murmur, " The Lord be praised tor his mer eie!" Xow the fearful eddies and breakers were a danger not to ,be thought of, after what had been passed. Three mies below Louisville, at Portland, the passengers were laujied safely, with a great sense of gratitude to the in trejiid pilots and their brave crew, and most deeply in debted to the mercyW God. They had been about four hoiirs on the water. After this successful passage a larg er boat, capable of holding more freight, and without too mujch draught, took off the remaining passengers, and passed the falls safely.

We are indebted to the courteous mail agent between Richmond and Weldon for the follow ing particulars of one of the most brutal and bloody affrays at the latter point, that has erer come under our knowledje, Mr. Patrick McGowau, mail agent on the Raleigh and Weldon road, has been in the habit cf keeping an account with John H. Everett, Postmaster at Spring Hill , Halifax Co., N. C, who keeps a store ; and a few days since the latter sent Mr. McG. a bill for $1,08, a balance due. McG. replied by a note, stating that he did not think he owed it, but if he did he would pay it. Everett replied by sayiug that hff did, and McG. sent him the money. Everett return ed a receipt, underneath which was written, " You knew you owed the money, but tried to chouse me out of it." Mr. McGowan sent him back a note, stating' tfiat he had not tried to cheat him, as he proved by sending the money when informed that it was really due, and that if he (E.) charged him with trying to cheat him, he t jid a Me. Everett determined to have revenge for this,i and in company with his father and a man nam ed Price, he went yesterday to Gaston, to attack McG., who, hearing of their intention, refu?ed to meet them, remaining in his mail caiv They got on the train and fallowed him to AVeldon, declaring that tbey intended to kill him. At this place, Mr.Vaden delivered McG.'s mails to the Wilmington cars, and by his request went off 'toseek Justice Campbell. He was not in Weldon, but a magistrate named Parker was found, before whom the parties were summoned. McG. swore that he, had cause to apprehend vio lence from the Everetts and Price, but they de clared that they had no intention of assailing him, and under this declaration thwy were dis missed. Mr. McG. left the magistrate's office and pro ceeded to the depot, when helmet several bystan ders, to whom he began to explain the difficulty. The younger Everett approached thf group, and McG. beckoned to him '.o come up and he would explain the whole, lie rushed up and drew his pistol. McG. caught him by tiie collar, and drew another, at the same time pushing him back till he -sat down on a step nearby. The elder Everett then approached, placed a revolver to McG.'s back and immediately pulled the trigger, but the cap snapped. The bystanders now interfered and drew the elder Everett back, but he continued to discharge his pistol at Mr. McGowan, one of the balls striking him on the back of the head, and inflicting a severe wound. During this firing, Price, who was outside of the crowd, fired into it, causing the bystanders to fall back. Young Everett then struck McG. in the face with his revolver, causing him to stag ger back to w here, the eider E. was standing. The latter struck him a severe blow in his face, causing him to' fall at his son's feet, when the latter deliberately placed the mouth of bis re volver at McG.'s shuiilder, and then moved it upwards to his cheek, just in front of his e;ir, when he fired. You: g Everett then declared that he bad killed McGowau, and had come there t--j kill him. j Mr. AYm. X. Alien then stepped forward and I called upon the citizens to aid him in arresting the perpetrators of this fiendish outrage, and it. is. greatly due to his praiseworthy efforts that the miscreants were immediately taken, bound and conveyed to Halifax jail. I'uriiig the whole affair. McGowan never fired once; his-intention seemed first to conciliate,! j and atter the of fray began, he was too severely wounded to be aide to .ie'eiid lutiiselt.

House Thjs morning at 2 o'clock agreed to the Senate's amendments to the Civil and Dip loniatic B. lis, striking out the tariff clause. A moli u to tender the usu il vote of thanks to Speaker B-yd was discus-ed. Mr. Hunt, op p se l,but it was adopted almost unan niously. The II aise concurred in the Senate's amend ment to the Post office Appropriation Bill, re uuiri ng the pre-payment of postage iu all cases after the first of January next. An attempt was made to get up a bill, pre venting foreign paupVri, criminals insane, etc., from enteiing this cou.iT'.ry. A debate ensued, and it was soon amalgamated yith Know Notli- in 'isnr, but was tinaby tabled. The Conference j lieport ' on Navy Appropriations was concurcd ' :n. The bill makes a clear appropriation for Ocean Mail Service, but sas unthinjr about the Coilius line f st -tun is, leaving it option 1 with the President to continue it or not. It is generally thought it will be continued. At half past eleven this morning the conference lieport on the Civil and Diplomatic Hill vas concurred in. When the roll was called, Cul. Benton violently protested against his name being called. He said the proceedings' were ille gal, an 1 he would not answer to his name. He r garded the whole affair as a wanton and will ful desecration and violation of the Sabbath. Much excitement prevailed, when the Sneaker playfully asked the doorkeeper to put "Old Bul lion" out: All the proceedings, however, were orderly. The H u e a journed at 12 o clock. A State Map. It should be more erenerallv known that Mr. W. 1). doke, of Raleigh,, is preparing a new Map of this State, which we have reason to believe, wiil prove to be very superior to any we have ever had. We understand that all the maps of North Carolina, since that of Price tb Strother, have been -mere copies, and generally very poor ones; and we rejoice to know that we are to have something thatis made from original materials, and can be relied on. We learn that Mr. C. takes the sea-coast from the U. S. Survey, and Ins copies of late survevs of many of the counties, as also the lires of Rail and Plank roads from the original documents. Every person havitig any plans or other mater ials that can be used in aid of his design, should send them at once to the compiler, as it is a great object to have the map as full and correct as possible. We would suggest to Mr. Cooke the idea tof pla cing in a corner of his map a plan of the largest seaport in the State Wilmington. Should he do so, we think that at least two hundred of his maps mijrht 'ibei sold here, at a remunerating pike. We learn that it may be published dar-ino- the ensuing summer. Wil. Herald.

Allen, of Amboy, gave a dose to a child 6 years old, and it brought away 8.3 worms. He soon after gave another dose to the same child, which brought away 50 more, making 133 worms in about 12 hours. Andrew Downing, of Cranbury township, Ve nango county, gave his child one tea-spoonfu', and she passed 177 worms. Next morning, on repeti tion of the dose, she passed 113 more. Jonathan Houghman, of West Union, Park county, la., writes that he is unable to supply the demand, as the people in his neighborhood say, after a trial of the others, that none is equal to Dr. MXane's Vermifuge. Messrs. D. & J. W. Colton, of "Winchester, Ind. happened last spring to get some of this Vermi fuge. After selling a few bottles, the demand be came so great for it that their stock was soon ex hausted. They state that it has pioduced the best effect wherever used, and is very popular among the people. '"' ' ' - ': Purchasers will be careful to ask for Dr. M'Lane's celebrated Vermifuge, and take none else, j All other Vermifuges, in comparison, are worth less. Dr. M'Lane's Vermifuge, also his celebrated Liver Pills, can now be had at all respectable Drue Stores in the United States and Canada. "We seldom recommend a manufactured medi cine, believfng that, in most cases, nature herself perfects a cure more rapidly and effectually than can oe accomplished by the vegetables and minerals of medical science. But in the matter of dyspepsia, there are chronic features about it, which very often defy all the efforts of nature to create a healthy ac tion of the digestive organs, and it not unfrequently happens that thousands suffer for years, diseased both in body and in mind, from indigestion and its kindred ills. Io such, HK)fland's German Bitter?, prepared by Dr. C. M. Jackson, are truly a most valuable preparation. It is a tonic medicine, giv ing a healthy action to the stomach, and will be found highly serviceable at all seasons, but especi ally during the spring. Dyspepsia can only be cured by a patient perseverance in one course of treatment; and to all those suffering under this sad malady we would reeommend an application to the depot of Hoofland's German Bitters, 120 Arch street, Philadelphia.

The int roduction of appropriate Ilulstrations into literary papers is becoming more commop and popular everyday, and their useful tendency will bp appreciated by all who inave observed their poer of suggesting new and pleas ng reflections to the most careless mind.

One of the objects contemplated by the Proprietor is to encourage NATIVE TALENT, and to stimulate LITERA RY EFFORT. The .columns ot ihe Post will therefore be freely open to contributions of a ilseful tendency, and such literary merit as to justify insertion.

A distinct head will always be reserved for items of jocal interest or events in the daily history of North Carolina. Under the head of Literary Ncjtices the reader will often find brief notices or more extensive reviews of books re cently published, and it is hoped that this feature of the paper will recommend it to a large class of subscribers.
