ARRIVAL OF THE STEAMER
WASHINGTON.

BY the arrival of the U S. Mail steamer
Washington, Capt. r. w. Floyd, we are
in possession Of accounts from Bremen 10
the 18th, and Southampton to the Goth ult.
respectively the dates on which this steam
er took her departure from those por,s.-
We also have the second edition of the
London papers of the Goth.
The Washington brings large and val
liable cargo OF French and German mer-
chandize, and about $50 passengers
Among the latter are the Hon. w. II.
Stiles, late U. S. Minister to Austria, and
family. The Hon. Mr.. Flaneken, late U.
S. Charge d d'Affaires to Copenhagen, and
son Gen Saunders, ex-Minister Of the
United States at the Court Of Madrid also
the Right Rev. Bishop Soulhgate, the Am
erican Bishop Of Constantinople, and fami-
ly and Mr. Rush, late U. S. Minister to
Paris.
BY the Washington, We have received
London and Southampton papersof the
2Oth ult, as likewise the Paris and Havre
journals of 18th and 10Th none Of which
were brought by the Hibernia, in conse-
quence of the early hour of er sailing from
Liverpool.
The Havre Cotton market as very ac-
tive, and. considerable and steady rise had
taken place, in sympathy with the advices
from Liverpool.
Advices from Paris mention that the dis
sentlon which had existed between the
President of the Republic and the majority
Of the National Assembly on the Rornan
question had passed away for the present,
and it was believed that some middle cOurs-
es woull be adopted, whereby the Minis
telal crisis, for some days SO imminent,
would be avoided.
Fresh executions Of Hungarian patriots
had taken place and were to take place in
.Arad and in Pes,h by sentence of Austrian
ourt NJ ar,ial One of the first notables
of Hungary the oc,ogcnarian Beo,hy, was
condemn ID to death. The brutal retalia-
tions Of the Austrian Government has fill.
ed all Europe with horror and disgust.
AT oos,antnopl", the Turks were ac.
lively preparing for war, and ho,til,ies be-
tween the Porte and Russia, were deemed
TO be unavoidable. The British Ambassa-
dor had received dispatches, stating that
the English flee. was on its way to the Oar
danelles, and the French Mediterranean
Squadron was also under orders to rendez-
vous at the entrance of tho Dardanelles.-
The Turkish Army in Constan,inoPe and
its environs were 100, 900 strong was daily
drille and manGuvered.

Correspondence Of The Ne,cs.
FoRr LEAvENwoRTH, Oct. 20


The Indians are
becoming very troublesome upon the Plains.
Nearly every small party going out or
coming in are attacked by them and robbed,
and frequent murders are becoming not un-
frequent. The September Mail from San
Ia Fe has been due ever slice the 4th Of
this month, and has not yet been received.
There is hardly doubt bu. that the Carl
er has been murdered by the Ii dians. Two
men who started with the Mail from Fort
Hall have been murdered by party of
Pawnee Indians, it is supposed, on the 18th
Of las, month, near Ash Hollow, about 1862
miles east of Fort Laramie. The body Of
one Of the men was found pierced by eight
or ten bullets, and otherwise mangled by
the wolves who had dug him up after he
had been buried. A letter bag was found
near him, torn open, and the letters scatter
ed broad-cas, on the Plains. AS many as
could be discovered were picked up and
brough, into this Post; bu. great many
must necessarily have been lost. Some
valuable papers, drafts, 60 were found
upon the person of the poor fellow, and
are now here. His name was Thomas
he started from here last Spring. Nothing
has been heard ofthe other man, a French
Toydgeur, Picard, by name but his hat,
sho, through and bloody, Was found near
where the other man lay. 1t is supposed
he was wounded, and then attempted to
escape, and was afterwards killed, prob
ably some distance from the road. Picard
had with him, in pair Of saddle-bags, the
mail sen, from the Rife Regiment. Meth
or the saddle-bass or mail have yet been
found I, is probable that the Indians took
them away.
Some changes have been made in the sta
ton Of Officers belonging to the Rife Reg
iment, since they left here. Among others
| hear that Lieut. Howland, Of Newport,
instead of going through with the man
body Of the Regimen, to Oregon. will stop
q, the Post to be established at, or near,
Bear Island. Is. 1. Z.

who runs against Jones, and Woodruff,
