The Horrors of the cold. The St. Louis and Chicago papers, of the first week in January, are filled with details of the intense cold weather in the West, and the suffering and death incident thereto. At St. Louis on Friday, the first day of the new year, at 7 o'clock in the morning, the thermometer fell to 19.5 below zero, and a minimum thermometer indicated a temperature, some time before daylight, of 22 degrees below zero! Such a degree of cold had not-been known there before in thirty-one years. The various railroads entering St. Louis were all blocked up with snow, water tanks frozen, and the cars covered up. The Mississippi was frozen over, and was made a great thoroughfare for pedestrians and loaded teams. People were terribly frostbitten, and some of their limbs were obliged to be amputated.

Read what he says: "Away, then, from human sight, with the hideous implements of human butchery and destruction! Break the sword in the scabbard, bury the cannon in the earth, sink the bomb in the ocean! What business have these to disturb by their hateful presence the harmony of God's Universe? How dare men to go out into the balmy air and bright sunshine, and there, in the full view of Heaven, essay to maim and massacre each other? How would their wretched supplements of National interest or National honor sound, if addressed directly to the A Ruling, as an apology for wholesale slaughter?
