the bank cp-tv I ye-terdav ('iVednesday)
morning. Ivfore the bar-k opened the
fu. was ascertained tint the boy bad
been killed mi 1 the c ittle sold at Nebras
ka City. It appears t hive been the
hupposition f.f the Sheriff and deputy
that lh? muidc-rrr bad taken passage on
the stage coming this way, an 1 they ac
cordingly telegraphed to the marshall of
this city to arrest persons of a certain
description who were in the coach. Two
men answering the J rcription were found
in the coach ai d ar.-e.-'.ed. The marshall
of Our city, Mr. Morgan, telegraphed
Lack that be had them under arrest, and
received an answer th'u morning to the
effect that the murderer had been caught
at or near Nebraska City, nnd to release
the men here, v.hich he did. We sdiall
probably receive a f ull account of the af
fair by the southern ma:', and will lay it
before our readers.
Later. A3 wo arc ready to go to press
we learn that three men were engaged in
the murder, ail of whom have been ar
rested. As the stnge left Nebraska City,
a wilannd infuriated mob was gather
ing about the jail, demanding the pris
oners. The probabilities are that they
haTe been huug by tho mob by this time.
The name of the principal in this atro
cious affair is Cash, ard murdered boys
came was Hamilton.

C-Maj. D. II. Wheeler, agent for the
Pawnee Indians, arrived in the city two
or three days since, on the "sick list,"
and ha been confined to bis bed mo-t of
the time ticce his arrival. It has bei n
currently reported fjr the past week that
the Major had been removed from oilice
becauso of his refusal to endorse "mv
policy." We do not believe that any
mch removal has been mad , and possi
bly may not be; yet we feel safe in say
ing that the political viuws of the Maj.
are too honestly und candidly cntertn n
cd by him to bo bought with an Indian
Agency or any other position. He ha.
ba'tled for the cause of Frt-edom and
Justice too long and too ardently to be
ewerved from the course which conscience
and a keen sense of right teaches him is
the only salvation of our system of Ue
publican Government, If men ure to be
removed from office because they wiil not
sell their principles, we hope it will be
don speediiy nd thoroughly. The
office holders who Support Congress vs.
Johnson have in no way changed their
political views since their appointment;
and if they are to b slaughtered because
they are faithful and true, the sooner it
is done the better it is for the countrv.
