' Of Tennessee.
. : ' Tbe Slorn.
From indications on Sunday last we
feared a heavy storm passed south of this
. place. We have since learned that much
damage was done to buildings, fences,
ticnber. crops, &.c. The fine new brick
residence of .Mr. Scoville near Nemaha
' City . was blown down and totally de-
Etroyed ; one or two of the inmates in
" jured ; Mr. Dye narrowly escaped with
his life ; was buried beneath the rubbish,
tut providentially, shielded by one of the
timbers falling over him and preventing
. a mass of brick from crushing him.
.' In many places corn and wheat were
laterally beaten into the ground by the
rain and hail. Corn will recuperate, but
wheat, where the storm prevailed, will
be a loss.Hndoubtedly.'
In Richardson County, we learn that
. crops were almost, if not entirely, in ma
ny instances, ruined.
, At Omaha, the Capitol building. Pi
' cneer Block, and several other buildings
. were unroofed, and seriously injured.
At Bellevue, three or four brick build
. ings were blown down, and totally de-
itroyed.
. At Plattsmouth, the new Court House
was unroofed, and partly blown down.
Tbe Japanese.
The Japaneese Embassy, after remain
.ing in. Washington until the fifty thous
and dollars appropriated by Congress to
. defray their expenses, had been made
way with, are now being Madam Trollop
- " ized, and Charles Dickenized, in the cities
cf Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New
York, to the tune of from twenty-five to
.fifty thousaud dollars expense to each
city. "While attentions are being lavish
. ed cpon. the Embassy here, affairs in
Japan have assumed quite a flare-up shape
indeed ; and brought about, if we under
stand right, in consequence of the treaty
between that country and ours, and the
" visit of the Embassy to the United States.
The last overland mail brings San Fran
cisco dates to May 21st, and Jeddo dates
to April 23d : from which we learn that
the Emperor of Japan was assassinated
cn the 15th of ZIzi&yiU.vto&lzz,'
says the dispatch. 'frr-i Lis House to theJ
Palace,- when he was attacked by four
teen Japanese, dressed as travelers. His
retinue had six killed and several wound
ed. . One of the assassins, who was woun
ded, and could not escape, had his head
cut of by his companions and carried off
to prevent his being recognized. Two
of the assassins were princes of high
rank, and had the privilege given them of
cutting" open their own abdomens, with
. a sword, and thereby preventing their
property from being confiscated, and sav
ing their families from the disgrace which
would entail upon them, had they been
beheaded. Thirty persons were behead
ed on the first of April, having been in
interested in the affair.
Since the death of the old Tycoon,
under whose reign the treaty was made,
there has been an entire change in the
Government, the present dynasty being
opposed to foreign intercourse, throwing
every obstacle in the way to interrupt the
trade and commerce with other nations,
that they could possibly do, without acta
.ally violating their treaties. Their oppo
position, at the head of which is Prince
Meto. is reported as being as strong as
the present Government, and ap insurrec,
tion is momentarily eipectecT. Houses,
with stands of arms, are cumeruos, both
in the town3 and along the road to the
city of Yeddo. All foreigners are re
quested not to go out after dark, and are
advised by their respective counsels to be
. armed at all times."
The treaty is now complete, between
the United States and Japan ; but we
have no idea it will ever be observed on
the part of the Japanese, except when
forced into measures by Uncle Sam,
' which, under all the circumstances we
reckon he will do in case the Tycoon and
his subjects fail to come up to their work.
We have but little faitlj in the intelli
gence or integrity cf these scarcely semi
barbarians. '
Duty to the community in which we are
located, and whose interests, as a jour
nalist, we are under obligations to
faithfully guard, compel us to say that
Platte Valley Money hereabouts b look
ed upon with a great deal cf suspicion ; it
is kept afloat; but few, if cny, like to
sleep with it in their pock:., or money
drawers. In fact, many, as we do, pos
itively refuse to take it under any cir
cumstances. We feel it obligatory upon
us to say this much to our readers in re
gard to the Platte Valley Bank; we have
no charges to make against the Bank, or
advice to give, and will only add, we are
not taking Platte Valley money, in our bu
siness transactions, nor will we receive
it on remittances, until further satisfied.

Sam Houston Is out for President
As was expected, Sam Houston con
sents to become the "People's Candidate
for President." Here is his letter of
acceptance :
"AusTiir, May 24th, 1860.
"Messss. Atchison akd Harris:
"Gentlemen In reply-to your letter of
the 14th, inst., I will say that I have re
f r ended to the people at San Jacinto, and
consented to let my name go before the
country as the People's Candidate for
President. - .
"In yielding to the call of my fellow-
citizens of Texas, in June last, to become
a candidate for Governor, I said :
" 'The Constitution and the Union em
brace the principles by which I will be
governed if elected. They comprehend
ail the old Jackson National Democracy
I ever professed, or officially practiced.'
"These have ever guided my action,
have no new- principles to announce.
"Yours, truly, SAM. HOUSTON."
Douglas Dropped.
"Hung be the heavens in black."
The Administration officials (called
onals, tor snort,) are continually announc
ing the death of Douglas. He was kill
ed in the Lecompton struggle, slaughter
ed in the Lincoln fight, did up and done
for when degraded from the Chairman
ship of his Territorial Committee, slain
by the Shdell Senatorial Caucus Commit
tee, murdered himseif when he wrote the
Harper Article, annihilated by old Jer
emiah Black, and ficr.Ly, Lsid out, "A
stiffened corpse," a; Charleston.
It is now claimed by the few but fero
cious friends of "Old Fume," that at Bal
timore, Douglas will be "dropped." We
agree with those functionaries, that at
Baltimore, it is the intention of the friends
of the Little Giant to drop him right
into the midst of the fire-eaters and those
defunct offals of the party, and make him
by the aid of the people, the next Presi
dent of these United States ! It will be
Douglas or Lincoln, or no President at
all ! Mark the prediction. We don't
fall a feather. Plaindealer.
. Platte Tallej Eanlr.
It is well known to our readers, that
we have always been friendly to, and had
great confidence in the Platte Valley
. Bank ; ; believing that the indomitable
" perseverance of its President, and princi
pal stockholder, Hon. S. F. Nuckolls,
would work it through, eventually. It is
well known and none regret or sympa
. thize mere than ourself that at the re
. cent conflagration in Nebraska City, the
Es.sk buildings were totally destroyed,
" and that Mr. N., with many others, un
fortunately met with heavy losses. These
facts have very naturally caused no lit
tle anxiety and inquiry in the minds of
the public in regard to the issues cf the
Bank. We. have been asked time and
" again, lately, and have been written to
. from the interior, as to "How about Platte
Valley Money ?" "Is it current with
you?" "Is it safe to take it ?" &c, &.c.
Tee Prajers or the Righteous.
"I prayed fcr the disruption of the
Charleston Convention, and the Lord an
swered my prayers. Rev. A. J. Thorn's,
at a Lincoln ratification meeting.
It would seem from the above that we
have done great injustice to the Southern
fire-eaters, in accusing tjiem of breaking
up the Charleston Convention. They
are exonerated from all blamejn the mat
ter. If we are to believe this Reverend
gentleman, God, at hi3 instigation, did
all the mischief. ' We would remind him
(Mr. Thom) thas there is a law against
disturbing public assemblies, and would
caution him and all other evil disposed
persons to- let our conventions alone.
We are t suppose that if Sir. Thom
had not prayed "there might be trouble at
Charleston, th?3 would not have been
any. The -vs&uy of some men is pro
digious. Ws wc?e4?r if all his petitions
are granted as promptly. Where was he

speaking cf the prospects of Douglas in
that State, says : .
"It .will be recollected that we warned
Democratic editors and politicians in this
State over a year ago, to be cautious hovr
they speke cf Stephen A. Doughs -that
they might hare tosuppoit him. Wheth

seen. The North Carolina delegation

Friend Furnas: 4
We arrived here
Sunday morning the 27th inst., and agree,
able to promise I seize the first practica
ble moment of writing you a line giving
you a short account of our adventures by
"flood and field" our journeyings and
tarryings by the wayside, and likewise a
short sketch of the general appearance of
Denver City, the inhabitants thereof and
the impression it createth on the mind of
y Pike's Peak Pilgrim cn his first arri
val in ye promised land.
Nothing of interest occurred until after
leaving Hackney's ranch a half day's
travel, when Homer Johnson and Baker
left us and went on, we camping for the
day. The rest of the company stuck to
gether until we reached the forks of the
road. Here we nooned and spent a short
time in canvassing the merits and demer
its of the two reads; some favoring the
"cut-off," while others preferred the old
traveled route up the Platte. We had
seen posters scattered along the road pre-
vious to reac ;.:ir the :crl.j(-warnmg emi-.
c :: nine: the cul-crTsr !. cing sandy,
devoid cf twc-J 'aria p-aii dpi without wa
ter excepVsuch a.3 v..strcngly alkalied.
Many of whom we enquired said the road
was pretty good for horse or mule teams,
but recomended those with oxen to pur
sue the old road. After considering the
matter thoroughly, Wilcox's Clark Ed
wards and two teams from Iowa went the
Platte river route, while John Morrisson's
Berger's, Bauserman's, Roger's and my
outfits took the "cut-off." I would here
recommend to all coming from or through
Brownville, to take that road, as we found
but little sand, excellent roads, plenty of
wood, water and grass at convenient dis
tances.
We traveled part of the night Satur
day, and daylight opening upon our vis
ion, showed us a partial view of the City
of Denver. From our point of observa
tion we were unanimous in our disappoint
ment of the place, it having the general
appearance of Nemaha City from a dis
tance. However as we passed through
the place astonishment at its rapid growth,
succeeded, and all were surprised at the
energy displayed, the immense number
of splendid business and dwelling houses,
and the evidences of prosperity every
where surrounding us. The city consists
of from 12 to 1500 buildings, and all with
a remaikably small exception would do
credit to any city in the States, while at
least one-half would be, in size, appear
ance and elegance, ornaments anywhere.
When you consider this younjglant js bat
a yearling, and lumber ranging from 875
to $100 per thousand, it certainly speaks
well for the prosperity and richness of its
mines.
Like most western cities in their ear
lier growth and especially those located
in the vicinity of mines, gamblers and
wnisKey-seiiers iorm a very prominent
portion of the community, and night and
day you can hear the rattling of dice, the
blasphemies of disappointed adventurers,
who have risked their little all upon the
turning of a card, and the low laugh of
exultation from the successful betters.
Sunday is the principle gambling day here,
as those who are confined by business du
ring the week, have now an opportunity
of losing their hard-earned gains.
Considerable excitement prevails thro'-
out the town on our arrival, based up
on a rumor that the Indians had attacked
the whites in Gregory Diggings, killing
sixteen men, and were concentrating the
forces cf the several tribes tourprise and
burn Denver. The truth as near as we
can learn at the present writing give on
ly two men killed and they were old
mountaineers and traders. Great num
bers of the copper-colored sons of Amer
ica, of the tribes Arrapahoe, Camanches,
Sioux and Cheyennes are camped at var
ious distances from the City and the streets
are constantly filled with them. The bu
siness houses are forbidden to sell them
whisky, guns or amunition. A delega
tion of citizens had a talk with the prin
cipal chiefs of the various tribes on last
Monday, and they disdain any hostility
toward the whites, and say they are only
concentrating their forces for a combined
attack upon the Utes.
I forgot to mention that at Cottonwood
Springs we were joined by Chel. Lang
don of familiar remembrance, who re
mained with us the ballance of the trip.
Chet. appears to be the least discouraged
of any in the train and keeps a stout
heart and stiff upper lip. He says he
can't feel poetical at the scenery, as things
look blue enough without gazing at the
blue-robed mountains.
We all looked anxiously forward to our
arrival at Denver, as a haven of rest and
the end of our surmises and speculations
as to the best course to pursue in the
mine3. Alas! for the fallibility of all
human hopes, since octr arrival we know
less, if anything, about the mines than
we thought we did before leaving Brown
ville. Morrison's, Bauserman's and Berger's
company will start for the Blue River
diggins the day after to-morrow, while
Clark Edwards goes to-morrow to Greg
orys, and your humble servant will, in all
probability wend his way toward the
Arkansas mines. Hackney, Aikens,
Johnson and Baker have already left for
the Blue,
The weather has, as a general tiling,
been very "pleasant, 'as Michael says,
"barren the wind of it." Sunday night
and Monday forenoon we had a very hard
torm of rain, the wind blowing terrific.
This is the only rain of consequence that
s fallen here this season, and of course
was the subject of universal rejoicir.g.

... . . .
these mountains the location ui
.AM
our fortunes. Qur prospecting, no evci ,
has not been very successful. We have
served our apprenticeship as miners, ana
are now prepared to take our second de-
on the Arkansas or, Colorado,
whither we are now about to direct our
msrrh. We tin not. however, abandon
this region so much because we are dis
satisfied with the prospect it otters, as
because we araconfident thatjhere i;i a
belt:? opening for us in the new diggings
Our prospecting thus far' ha3 been
nrinninnllv confined to those localities
r j j
which were discovered last season.
As I promised in my last to give you
nn idea of the extent and character or
these mines, I will now endeavor to do
so, as completely as I can from the limit
ed data that I have been able to obtain:
The mines in this region, so far as yet
discovered, are located upon what is called
Clear Creek and its northern tributaries
a stream about the size of the Little
Nemaha in your own county which finds
its way in nearly a northeast course from
the summit of the Rocky Mountains to
the Platte, near St. Vrains Fort.
The first discoveries on this creek were
made in the winter of 1858-59, near the
base of the Mountains, first at Air a pa
hoe. and soon after on a small branch
farther up the stream, the boulder dig
p'mes were opened. In the spring of
o o
1850, from what these discoveries indi
cated, parties were encouraged to extend
their search farther into the mountains,
by following as nearly as possible the
general course of the creek, and having
advanced some thirty miles over, perhaps,
as difficult a journey as was ever traversed,
thy found indications of a rich mining
district. At this distance the creek forks
one-branch coming from the north and
the other from the west. Following the
northern branch aT few miles Gregory
and Russel .made, their. discoveries ; other
discoveries ere'fnade - about the Uame'
time,, on the western branchin, the vicin-
lry of what is called the Clear C reek JJar
Diggings. These discoveries embrace a
tract of country between the forks of
Clear Creek about ten or fifteen miles
square, which has been pretty thoroughly
explored and prospected ; nearly all the
gulches have been mined and have gene
rally been found profitable probably two
thirds of the gulch claims will pay at the
rate of five dollars per day to the hand
on an average. But the most profitable
source of mining in this region is, doubt
less, the quartz leads, which have been
found in all places yet prospected. Little,
however, can be done in working these
unless more extensive preparations are
made for crushing the quartz, as but few
of them yield crevice dirt enough to pay
the expense of working. It is only in
the vicinity of mountain city, near Greg
ory's discovery, that the Jeads have been
opened.
There is a rumor afloat that other dis
coveries were made last fall too late in
the season to operate in within a days
travel of this vicinage, which for reasons
best known to the discoverers have been
kept secret, but will soon be made public.
There seems to Be a general expectation
that what Jias yet been discovered here
is but a begining of what thi3 season
will develop.

the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad propose
to issue half-fair tickets, as will be seen
by the following circular :
"Under its uniform policy of encour
aging Baltimore as a place for holding
National Conventions, and general meet
ings, the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company has been the first to reduce the
fair upon its own Road, and to arrange,
also, with its numerous connecttng lines
in the West, and the North, and South
west, for a general and joint reduction,
by through round-trip Tickets, for the
Democratic National Convention which
is to be held here on Monday, the 18th
of June.
Haviug effected arrangements there
fore, with the principal lines west of us,
for through round trip tickets between
all prominent points and the city of Bal
timore, and being a Baltimore work, and
the only direct lin from the greater por
tion of the West, we desire to have these
facts as widely known a3 possible, in or
der to give the fullest opportunity to en
joy the route, as to seeure for cur road
the legitimate fruits of its position and
attraction, and of our efforts lor the pub
lic accommodation.
The tickets will be good for an ample
