They also killed one of his men. We learn from a gentleman who has just come from the Smoky Hill route, that most of the hostile Indians hare left that route, having gone south to receive their annuity goods.

The Register of the Omnha Land Office has received letters from a re sponsible representative of a large number of foreigners residing at rats burgh making inquiry for suitable lands for them to occupy in Nebraska. From 300 to 1,000 families of liohemia, embracing farmers, skilled arlizans, Sec , &e , are in readiness to come out to mis country so soon as tneir agent shall be able to select the right plaoo for them. They will come in the shape of a colony, and it will be their object to form a distinct community. Mr. Sweezy in answering to this eall upon him for information in the richt way. He will send plats and sketches of the country, together with descriptions of many parts of the State that offer superior advantage to those in foreign lands who seek home and independence in our own. We em phatically say that there is no section of the Union more beautiful, fertile or attractive than Nebraska. We find the above in the Omaha Herald, and are in hopes we may be able to secure this large accession to our population. Should Mr. Sweezy not succeed in inducing this colony to locate in our State through tha infor mation he may send, if the agent wil only visit the counties lying west of Cass, in the neighborhood of Lincoln Oity, we guaran.ee there will be no more question as to location. This part is filling up ropidly, and all who wish to fQrniih eggs and butter for the Governors table will have to be in hurry to locate. Bring on you 1,000 or 10,000 families, Nebraska is large enough and good enough for all.

They are from Illi nois and intend to settle on Salt Creek MEXICAN FILIRUSTERg. There is great sympathy manifested at Richmond and throughout the South forth 9 unfortunate Prince Maixmillian, whose tragic end seams to have awa kened all the slumbering ideas of Reb el daring. From information of which I am in receipt within the past few days, I can state that organizations are being formed with concerted action in all the Southern States, whose purpose it is to avange tha" deathof a gallant Prinee and former sympthiror of theirs. They are all to be composed of military men familiar with the deeds of desperation, and the daily aeeessions to the party are said to be enormous, though the organization is kept perfect ly secret. A daring well-known ex Rebel officer of cavelry fame it, it is said, designated as the chosen leader of the forces, and funds from Europe are received. The expedition will move secretly to Mexico, concentrating in a remote portion of Texas, where tha supplies will be previously forward ed, aDd frem where a movement will be made upsn the Liberal army, as cir cumstances dictate. European Gov ernments are said to be involved in this movement, and will probably co operate with it. THE Sl'lELEMENTARlf RE CONSTRUCTION BILL Provides that the military authority in the Rebel States in paramount to all oivil governments therein, and that they shall not interfere in any way with its authority. That the District Commander have power, subject to the approval of the General of the Army, to; rencve from office any cinl officers ni their district, and to appoint to the vacancies officers ef the army or uviIIi&qs. That the same powers of removal or appoint ment are posseeed by th General of the Army. That all tho past acti of the District Commanders in removal; or appoint ment are confirmed. That it ia the duty of the Boards of Registration to ascertain and decide the qualifications of applicants far the registration, and that thr mere taking of the precribed oath shell not be con clusive proof of qualifications. That the true intent of the oath pre scribed is that any person who has held executive or judicial ofiiice in the Rebel States, and has engage J in re bellion, ehall not be entitled to "regis tration, and that all civil offices for the adnvmstration of the general laws are intended by the words "executive or judicial-" That the time tor completing; regis tration may be extended till October 1st; that the Boards havo power to re vise for a period of five days the regis tration lists, and to strike out the names of persons they believe io have been improperly enrolld, and to add those they boliove improperly omitted. That no person shall be enthled to be registered 'or te vote by reason of a Presidential pardon of offensas, which would otherwise disqualify nun.' That the District Commanders have the power to remove and appoint Reg isters, that no person shall be disquali fisd from service as Register on ac count of race or color, That the reconstruction acts shall be construed literally, thU their intent may be freely and perfectly carried out. DR. LIVINGSTONE The hopes that the death of Dr Livingston would proro incorrect, which have from time to time been encour aged, have at last been finally dispell ed, and no doubt remains but that this adventurous explorer and man of sci enca metjhis death in ihe far off wilds of Africa, at the hands of the savage Ma fites. The first report is corrobo- oated as follows: "Being a fast walker, Dr. Living stone kept come distance iuadvance ef the baggage encumbered men; and Moosa only, or Moosa and a few oth ers ef the party, kept up with him The maroh had continued some dis tance when Dr. Livmgstone saw three armed men ahead, and thereupon he called out to Moosa, "Ihe Mantes are out, after all," or come ;such words as these, and they seem trj have been the last uttered. The three Mafitcs were armed with bows and arrows, and oth ar weapons, and they cimediately com mencarl heetillitiea. EviJantly the men must have closed on the doctor, when finding matters desperate, he drew his revolver and shot two of his as sailants. But while thus disposing of two, tho third managed: to get behind Dr. jLivmgston, and with ons blow from an axe elove in his head. The wound was mortal, but the assaasin quickly met his own doom, for a bullet from Moosa's musket passed through his body, and the murderer fell dead be side his victim." In tha death of Dr.Livingstone, En gland has lost one of her proudest or naments, science a most able devotee, and the world a great; man. Across the ocean, through the half known land of Mozambique, to and beyoLd the in land sea of Nyassa, over the burning deserts ef Ethiopia, where n human being but the barbarous natives had ever trod, this intrepid travler pushed on to meet his fate. Covered by the shifting sands of the desert, never to be moistened by the tear of friends or kindred, with no stone; to mark his resting place,; sleeps Dr. Livingstone, while a sorrowing world mourns his sad fate. The sailor's proper grave is the rollinsr deep: the soldier's the bloody field, is it no. eminently fitting that Livingstone should lie down in the wide waste of Ethiopia ? Rtqui- tscat. VIRGINIA. We notice that Hun. W. L. Goggin, ex Governor of Virginia, and member of Congress from 1839 to 1849, an old- line Whig of great influence in all parts of the State.is out in a very sensi ble letter. It seems that he is not him self entitled to a vote under the Regis tration act, he does not murmur at that but accepts his lot manfully, and coun sels his fellow Virginians who can reg ister to do so, and thus restore the Old Dominion to its former federal rela tions without delay, 'upon the basis pre scribed by Congress. He says, among other things to the same effect. ; A conquered people can t expect to have a choice of measures or the ; selec tion of the men for publio positions ex aclly upon their own terms and; their own way. We must learn to realize our true condition. In the first place, we must remember that, slavery hav ing ceased, we have, in consequence, a new element of freedom incur midst, which we must respect far its strength, whatever may be our opinion of the materials of which it is composed. We must realize the truth that slavery can never be restored, and that Cotton as King is forever dethroned. Ho may till, however, be a re patted, and even honored, member of tha family 'circle. We should have uo revvnnss such a loss, lwoidd not to'dcy restore slawry iflcoxdd. The agitation of this very question ia the past, during the party conflict which you and I have witnessed precipitated the country, finally, into the revolution which ended two years aS- ... We can new build upon its ruins the foundation, and raise thereupon the su perstructure of a free Government, which can be made to respect the rights and promote the happiness of both ra ces, when both races learn to work together for the common good. The thought of gmting back into the Union on any easier terms be de nounces as a "delusive phantom, and he maintains that the State cannot even make a beginning in the way of return to material prosperity so long as it is out in the cold, waiting for something to turn up that shall enable it to sneak back into Congress on a more agreea ble plan.

House The Reconstruction Bill was passed over the veto without de bate; yeas 30, nays 6. Mr. PouUvell made an elaborate speech whdL the veto message was re ceived. Messrs. Schenck. Butler, Williams and others followed. All denounced the Presided, and demanded his im peachment. Mr. Stevens said that quite a num ber of unseen agencies are at work to prevent the impeachment, and he felt satisfied that to try to impeach the Pres ident would be vain. Mr. Stevens agreed with the theory of Congress, and said the Southern States was but a conquered teiritory. A joint resolution was passed that no district commander should be re moved withotu the consent of the Sen ate, unles recommended by the Gea eral of the Army. The House resolu ion for adjourn ment wns taken up, and after debate, was rejeoted, but finally amended to adjourn at three o'clock to-morrow to the first Mondey in December. Chicago, July 22 It is believed the new Indian bill will obviate further Indian troubles. It provides that the President shall ap point three general officers who, with Indian commissioner Taylor, Senator Henderson, John B. Sanborn and Col. S. F. Tappan' have authority to call together the chiefs of the hostile In dians and ascertain the alledged rea sons for hostility, and make a treaty under direction of the President and subject to the approval of the Senate, remove all just causes for complaint and establish security along the routes of travel. The committee will be re quired to select from the district a suf ficient area to receive all tribes east ef tbe Rocky mountains who are not peacefully residing on permanent reser vations, in which shall bo sufficient til lable land to enable the Indians to sup port themselves by industrial pursuits; and no other persons ever permitted to enter without permission from the tribes interested, except officers of the United States; the district te be se loca ted as not to interfere with the route of the Paoific railroads or the proposed route by the way of Albuquerque, nor any present thoroughfare of travel. Four hundred and fifty thousand dol lars have boon appropriated to carry out the act. Galveston, July 22. Headquarters are overwhelmed with reports of outrages in the Red River county. Negroes dare not accept ap pointments ef the register for fear of their lives. In Robison county a col ored church was assaulted and two man and one woman killed. Capt. Randall raised 100 freedmen and arrested two of the ringleaders. An outlaw named Uues, a prominent loader in these out rages, was also arrested. fK3"The irrepressible Cora James has turned up in Chicago in a new role, and under the euphonious name of Semantha Proc'or. A few days since, she was bringing aetions against parties in St. Louis, now for abduction, again for slander, and lastof all for rape. She now appears in Chicago as plaintiff in a suit wherein Ira Y Munn of tha wall known firm hf Munn &.

A few evenings ago, a son of Mr. Charles E Provost the Foreman of this office was sitting at the fide of the house watching aome persons driving steers at a rapid rate along the street. Sud denly, one of the animals, maddened by the chaio, leaped over the bars in to the yard, and seeing this little boy sitting there, made a fearful plunge at him, catching him safely between its horns, which, passing through the side of the building, perforated into and knocked off the plastering on the in side of the house, thus pinning the lit tle boy fast to the building between the horns of the steer, where he was held for the spar.e ef a minute, when the enraged animal loosening his horns, backed out, ana made anothe side plunge at the boy, just grazing his cheek and temple, leaving a slight gash on each , whon the drovers came to the boy's assistance, and drove the infuri ated bea&t away. This Utile boy, only ten years of age withstood the terrible assaults of the steer, without being much frightened, and his coolness and presence of mind, undoubtedly preserved his life, thus giving, as we consider, one of the most miraculous escapes on record. iVon- pareil. F"For several years a small band of American missionaries have been workiBg with great zeal in the Asiatic countries ef Turkey. They have es tablished a number of churches, which are prosperous though not yet large ; but their labars have not been confined to preaching. Jnelly appreciating the importance and influence of education and the press, they have ostablithed a printing press in Beirut, which has the best Arabic type in the world. A let ter from Beirut, gives some interesting information on ihe crest influence which this press had exercised upon the intellectual progress of the country. The publications published by the American press are spread far and wide, and are constantly sought for. Every new book is read with ividity. Numerous schools, and seminaries, and the American Protestant College which has been established at Beirut, are raising up a reading community. More recently the want of newspapers has been felt by natives, and already four Arabic newspapers have been started ia the large cities of Syria. Wo are glad to see that thus American no tinns of the right kind begin to be rel ished in the East. BOARD AND LODGING, B Q . W.
