Utt er It. II.
From reliable information which we
liaro received, wo feel perfectly assureJ
that tho llurlinjtou and M. River R. R.
will establish its western terminus directly
opposite our city. We hnve no doubt of
it. A the act granting lands to the Road
requires the location to be made a point
at or near the mouth of the I'luue, it is
irjt improlable that the route may le inform-illy
laid out in exact correspondence
with the terms of the grant, but we have
no doubt that when tho road comes to bo
lmilt, it will, on tho score of expedience, if
not necessity, bo constructed to tho Mis
souri opposite our town. That would tnke
it but four miles alwve tho mouth of the
Platte, which certainly is "near" enough
' . , . ., !

in the crant : more especially, as it is the
onlv feasible route. Let the reader mark
a i
our prediction. Tho Hurlington and Mi
aouri River Railroad, will be permanently
established, and buxH to a point directly
opposite to Hellevue !
Personal.
Gen. J. H. Robertson, indian agent,
has returned from the Fast, and paid us
a visit tho other day. lie looked fresh
and hearty. Gen. R. makes a most ex
ccllant agent, and exercises a paternal
care over the poor nations who are com
mitted to his charge. No one who knows
him, will doubt his efficiency as a public
officer, or his integrity as a man.
Do Soto rtlot.
' Tho above is the title of a very neat
bhect publuhed at Do Soto, Washington
County, by John I'. Parish, Editor and
Proprietor, tho first number of which wc
received last week. Do Soto is a beau
tiful, thriving town on the Missouri river,
centrally situated between the north and
South lines of Washington County, in im
mediate proximity to a very large body of
e t ccllant timber.. In our opinion it U
found to be a placu of considerable im
portance. They now have the bonefit of
a press, and will soon have a bank in op
eration. Success to De Soto, and success
to the "De Soto Wot l"
High Water.
The oldest settlers in the country posi
lively declare that they never knew tho
river to be as high as it is at present, as
early io the spring. Tho bottom opposite
Omaha is nearly out of sight, and the
ferry-boat crosses only once a day, and
that with tho greatest difficulty. We are
so ry to say that the elevated road which
leads from the ferry landing to tho first
bank, on the Iowa side hns suffered great
ly from tho action of the water. Thero
is no doubt but some of the upper towns
are by this time entirely swept out of ex
istenco. Hurrah for Hellevue! There'
nothing like au elevated position, high, and
dry I
. Bellevue.
Cities rise- up in lhi country as by
magic. It only requires threo or four
years for an oak forest on our western
rivers to become converted into a great
commercial city. We have wondered over
the marvelous increase of Chicago, but
now our attention is drawn to Hellevue i
Nebraska. Situated by nature advan
lageously, it will soon have the advanta
ges of Kailroads diverging in uinvrent ui
rections, which will make it at an early
, date the great city of the west.

The New Fbcmch Postal TatAi-r.
Judge Campbell and Count Sartiges haV
signed the new Postal Convention. It wil
lake effect from the first of April. This

France and the other countries with which
it has treaties, more than one half of the
preseut rates, and possesses the great ad
vantages of enabling correspondents in the
United Suites to write to any part of Eu-

Indians, which gives Washington a place
in the Red Man's Heaven. According
to this Indian tradition, Washington is the
only white man who ever reached the
happy hunting grounds. This exception
in favor of the I ather of his Country is
a'legcd to have bcen made by the tireat
Spirit, because of his justice and benev.,-
lence to the Indian. In the year of 1783,
the Indians were abandoned by the British
allies, and had to make their own terms
with the American government. The Iro-
quois were more exposed to severe meas
ures than the other tribes in their alliance.
At thi critical moment Washington iu-
terfered in their behalf as the protector of
Indian rights, ami the advocate oi a policy
toward them of the most enlightened jus-
tice and humanity. After his death be
was mourned as a benefactor of their race,
