That said re-location Khali bo made without additional expense to the State of Nebraska. We call attention to the splendid hidu M inoiits held out to settlers, ininii rants and everybody wanting land, by the P.. & M. H. II- 11- Company.

From the San Frandseo Hullotin, Feb. 19.1 Vague rumors have 1.cmi current for some time, which soem recently to have assumed more definite shape, that jm ex tend ve organization is going on in the city foY the purpose of mobbing, mur dering and exterminating the Chinese in our midst. It is reported that one as sociation alone, having this object in view, numlR'rs 2,000 members; that there are several such association? in the city: and at a ;riveu signal, on or before St. Patrick's day, a concerted movement is to be made to exterminate the Chinese. It is to be hoped, for the sake of hu manity and civilization that these rumors are entirely groundless, but the subject id one which may well claim the atten tion of our authorities and our citizens before it is too late. Although a mob of this character would commence opera tions against the Chinese, it would of course, "like that of New York during the war, sack the city so far as it could acquire the power, making robbep and rapine it ulterior and principal object. That a few designing demagogues are engaged in urging wicked and ignorant men to deeds of violence seems ; highly probable. How far they will be able to succeed in their criminal course the next few weeks will determine. T!c rmnlly for Uoslrojlnc rorcst Spain, Italy and portions of France are now Buffering from the improvidence that devoured their forests, leaving the future to take care of itself. I presume the great empires of antiquity suffered from the same folly, though to a much greater extent. The remains of a now extinct race who formerly peopled and tilled the central valleys of this continent, and especially tha Terrotory of Arizona, probably bear witness to a similar reck essness, which is paralleled by our fath ers and our own extermination of the magnificent forests of white pine which, barely a century ago, covered so large a portion of the soil of our Northern States. Vermont sold white pine abund antly to England, through Canada, within my day ; she is now supplying her own wants from Canada at a cost not less than five times the price she sold for; and sho will be paying still higher rates before tin close of this century. I entreat our farmers not to preserve every tree, good, bad or indifferen:, that may happen to be growing upon their Jan l1 but, outside of the lifeiitfd dis trieU wherwin the primitive forests must still bo cut away in order that-land may be obtained for cultivation, to plant and rear at least two better trees for every one.. they may be impelled to cut down,, Horace G verity. Rlscoiery of Knm.nn ISonr. The people of Woodbury, N. J., are greatly excited about the recent discov ery of a large ixd of human lones on a farm about one mile southeast of the town. Tlie IkhI is several feet in thick ness and two or three rods in extent, and the bones are lying within three feet of tho surface. The owner of the firm, before leaving for Philadelphia, gave in structions to hi: men to cart some earth from an adjoining fie'd to cover a com post heap. On his re turn in the evening he fUund, to his surprise, that the heap was partly covered with human hones. The neighbors were informed, and upon examination it was found that this mass of bones were piled in together promis eously, and are of an unusually large size. The bottom of the bed is thickly covered with charcoal, and the lower tier of bones fall to pieces as soon as touched. Those on top are well preserved, and arc but little affected by the length of time buried. A committee of townspeople was appointed to take some Seciniens to the Professors of the Academy of Sci ence of Philadelphia, and next week a scientific examination will be made. It is supiKsed that they are the lones of an Indian tribe, but so far there a re none of the Indian war relics found among the bones, which leaTes some doubts on thi point mmmmm The dog population of Missouri is 250, 000, to support which, fix dollars each, costs $2,100,000. Tax them twodollars a head and they will bring in a revenue of $700,000, and help pay their board. An exchange having made the above assertion, the Hickory county Mirror pointedly adds : CTAnd what is still better, would spocd- lfy result in iucreasing the numler of sheep at least one million in the State, liut so long as bipeds calling themselves men prefer the companionship of a worthless dog, to the profits of sheep, so long will dogs he untaxed by legislators, who remember that most dog owners have a vote, hence the dog population is like ly to increase, and the sheep diminish the dogs to consume more bread and the peonle t consume more of the wool J produced in South America and Canada.

This communication from the War De partment was made to the United States Senate in reply to a resolution of inquiry submitted three or four weeks ago by Senator Thayer. The aggregate losses to the Government on army stores, dar ing the past year, is thus shown to be a little more than 60,000. A land grant in aid of the construction of the Omaha and Northwestern Railroad would riot only secure the prompt building of that important line, but render the transit of all goods between Omaha and the Upper Missouri military posts and Indian reser vations safe and speedy at all seasons of the year. Without the road,-the, lands along the proposed line will not be sold by the government for the next twenty years. Omaha JiejmMican. i : . ' R. R. Notice.
