' Why are not" our capitalists moving iu this matter, cr at least manifesting a disposition to encourage. We huve reptatedly called attention to this enterprise as one of vital import ance to Southern Nebraska. There are rr.any. advantages to be secured by, at least, a co-operation and manifest wil lingness to do ail in our power. Will we take hold ? Slicntlris Affair nt (he Crossing of Big Blue. ' . We learn from parties returning from the plains that two men were recently killed and a third seriously wounded at . the crossing of the Big Blue. The persons killed and wounded were returning Pike's Teakers,- -The difficulty arose in a dis pute between the ferryman and returning emigrants, k in regard t" to the ferriage. Wm.

'The names of the ferrymen are David Thompson and - Henry Williams. They hare fled. ' -. ; -VvBank Robbery. ' , On; Monday ' night the .Platte Valley Bank was robbed of some 83,000, mostly in geld. The robbers had by some means obtained a' set of duplicate" keys, and 'entered the Bank. '.A reward of $500 is offered for the apprehension of the burg lers and recovery of., the money. The robbery will not impair the credit of the Bank a: there are ample means on nana io redeem all outstanding notes and also to pay DiT.all: depositors, says the Daily Spirit if ihe West.l vt I ; California Travel. ; -The crossing at this point, of trains for California has been -very extensive the past week. We notice quite a number ; yet; bound for PikeV Peak. ; The route from,' Jifqwnville across the plains is rapidly gaining ; favor. . Hundreds who had gone out other routes came back by way of Brownvilie,' and finding it by far the best, are advertising it as they pass lack into. the States. No one starting ' from Brownvilie need have any fears of 'being humbugged as to the starting point and route. - - ' CcrrcspcrJcnceof the AdTertlser. Dallas TrxAS, ) Majf 4ih, 1859. R. W. FCEXAS, ESQ,. , s Dear ' Sir: Sircerny last frc.Ti Kthi ictavr- Kaucn, I have crossel Red II -er, hto Texas. After passing through r.-ch pocr country as 1 1 eve described ih previous letters, I am prepared to enjoy a more flattering state of affairs. I crossed Red River at Preston, a small dilapidated town, but a most beautiful site ; Steam Boats scarce get up this hlgli except in time'ef high waters!" Red River is a fine stream, some two hundred yards wide with high blufT banks of a deep red color, which gave rise to its came.- From Preston to Sherman, a distance of 18 miles, I passed over some beautiful j country. , Sherman is a thriving little village of about five hundred inhabitants. The overland, California , mail passes through this place twice a week. From this place to Dallas, seventy miles is as fine country as ever "old Sol" shown upon. It is level, with a black rich soil but said to be better for wheat than corn oa ac count of the drought; plenty of timber of excellent qualities; fine farms are opened up, the waving grain just now ready for harvest. This with the thou sands grazing herds, makes the' country look altogether charming, especially to one leaving your country at the season I did. While I am perfectly captivated with this country at this season and under all the circumstances, it may be possible another and different season may blast all my notions. The water in this Country is limestone, and not near so good as in Nebraska, especially in the rich lands. ' : The frost has injured the crops to sorae extent in some portions of Texas. Farmers pasture their wheat all winter to keep it back. The principal avocation is stock raising and all are in fine spirits. Health is good as yet in this part of the State. I go from here to Austin, from whence I will again write you. TRAVELER. S t , T ' County School Examiners. ; : .

A; distinguishing feature of the "Ro man cist" is the regular publication of the Waverly Novels ; four or five numbers will make, each novel complete.

The split oc curred between the Republicans and Know Nothings. , . . ; Hon. J. F. Farnsworth, member of Congress from the Second District of Illi nois, in a letter says : ) - 1 "I protest againt any attempt, come from what quarter it may, -to fasten upon us or to make the Republican party in any manner responsible for a principle like that involved in the Massachusetts amend ment." ' ' It will not do; the hook is in the gills, and the more the Republicans squirm, the greater will be the rent. - The barracks of Fort Armstrong, built on Rock Island, in the Mississippi river, between the cities of Davenport and Rock Island, was destroyed by fire on Monday last. The building was erected in 1S16, and was for years a protection to the early settlers of that region. It was one of the earliest relics of the settlement of the West.'' '- .:" . The fire, it is believed, was caused by some sacriligious incendiary, who, it caught, deserves hanging. Mr. Ten Broeck's Belle, ran for the Wynstag Hancjicup of 100 sovereigns at the Chester Spring meeting, May 3d. Belle took-the lead before starling and won easily by two lengths. At the Newmarket (Eng.) course on Thursday, April 2S,Mr. R.1 Ten Broeck's Prioress, in a match 'with Count Batthy any's Olympus, won, "hard held," by ten lengths- - The betting opened at 6 to 4 on Prioress, and closed at 5 to 2 on her. In the next race; forthe subscription plate of 50 sovereigns, Mr. Ten Broeck's Or landa came in second. , The Coram.issioner of the General Land Office, has caused the arrest of Eliab M.

We are surprised to learn that Collector Clason, of this port, has seized seme 820,000 worth of English goods, in transit from New York to Pembina and the .Tied river settlement. : .

We had the pleasure of a conversation last evening with Mr; Fillebrow, the obliging read agent cf Russell & Jones' Leavenworth and Auroria Express. Mr. Filleb'raw left Eenver Citv en the 9th inst. and arrived in Leavenworth 1 9th. h:a!dn? the trip in ten trouffhf with h m 2,500 m rold Uust U.3 product of the mint's in the vicinities of Boulder City, Denver City arid Platte river. Those who are at work in . the mines are making fair wages and are well satisfied with their prospects. The men who" have returned - and reported so un favorably, according) to Mr. Fillebrow' statement, had -'never struck a spade- in the earth. They had gone out illy pre pared, .were disappointed at not being able to grow rich in a : day and without exertion, and left with no sort of a knowl edge" of the' country.' Mr.' F. supposes that as much as eight or nine thousand dollars of dust might have been purchased without difficulty, and this speaks well for the richness cf the mines, in as much as the winter has precluded the possibility of ; extensive mining . operations. The snow is yet on the mountains, where it is supposed the gold exists most abundantly, and much of the product ' of the mines must have gone, to Mexico in exchange for provisions. Some very rich quartz had been discovered in the mountains west of Boulder City, a specimen of which is on exhibition at Leavenworth. Mr. F. con firms the account of the horrible suffering on the Smoky Hill route. All who are in the mines and are citcork, are hopeful and find much encouragement. Joe. West. Washington, May 24,1559. Persons leaving the United. State for France by way of Havre, must necessari ly have their passports vized by the French Consul at the port from which they sail, and those for the Continent, by way of England, and who may go to London, will have their passports vized at the Am erican Legation; whatever may be their destination. Persons going to the Spanish West Indies will have their passports vized by "the Spanish Consul at the port from which they sail. Naturalized citizens applying for' passports must send to the State Department their naturalization papers, which will be returned 'to them, together with descriptions of their persons. This is all that is necessary. Since the commencement of he present Adminis tration, about 14,000 passports have been issued at the State Department, and they are now issued at the rate of from forty to sixty a day. ; - $600 Worth of GoM Dnst. Some little excitement was created in Market Square by an individual who had just arrived from Cherry Creek, and who gave out that he had six .hundred dollars worth of the genuine yellow dust right in his pocket, which he had brought direct from the Cherry Creek diggings. As there is a smart sprinkling of skepticism upon this subject, the crowd gathered round in great numbers eager to sec the glittering stuff.!- , They called on the gold individual with one accord to come out and, show the dust, to which he readily assented, drawing forth a goose quill partially filled, saying : "here it is." "But," said the multitude, "there is no fix hundred dollars worth of gold." With great nonchalance he of Cherry Creek replied: "that is what it cost me, and by the tune seme of you get as much you will think it is worth double that sum." The crowd of gold hunters left the scene m high disgust. o. Joe. Gazette, Doings of the City Coancil. CocifciL Chamber, ) May 30th, 1659.

Ossawotaniic CoiiTentlon. 'The Convention met at Ossawotamie, organised under the name of the Republi can party, and adopted the Democratic doctrine as to Non-intervention. The only difference and that as to Kansas only is that the Democrats are in favor of ex eluding free negroes, and the Republicans are opposed to it. The Republicans and a certain wing of i the Democracy are gradually assimilating. ' There is now ho real difference. They have only to break dokvn the . barriers of prejudice to act heartily as one party. . .. . SraiJ.GriLD,Ti.L., May 27. : The Jacksonville i correspondent of the State Register, says that the most terrific tornado occuTred twelve miles south of that city on yesterday.- The violence of the whirlwind TsSdescribed as exceeding anything of - the kind ever witnessed, ex cept in the West Indies. Sixteen persons were killed and very many seriously in jured, some fatally. Houses were de molished and blown to atoms. ' r There is an incalculable amount of damage done to property of every kind.

Steptoe, and Captain's Carr and Palmer have obtained leave of absence, with permission to visit Europe. 'Although it is probable that they1, will observe the war like movements in Italy, they go thither as private 'individuals, and not by order of 'this Government, as a Board of Observation: ' : ' ; J : ' v'' . There. are now-two surveying or1- ex ploring parties employed by the Federal Government, and about taking the field under the direction of-the Topographical Bureau. ,; The first is despatched to ex plore the San Juan river, in New Mex ic, a tributary of the Colorado of the West, and to discover, if possible, a route between Ssnta Fe and Utah, in the vicin cf the San; Juan. The other party is charged with an exploration of the Yellow Stone and Missouri rivers a service of magnitude an importance, which will keep the expedition in the field for at least eighteen month. ; OBITUARY, j DIED, at his residence in Johnson county N.
