KANSAS AND NEBRASKA by Rev 4. L, Hale published
by Phillips, Sampson, & Co.. Boston.
The interest felt in Kansas and Nebraska, renders
complete history of those territories one Of the necess
ties of the times. Mr. Hale has admirably supplied what
was wanted He gives history of the territories since
their discovery in the beginning of the seventeenth cer
ry, by Marquette and Datisne s the present time. He
has consulted the records of the early explorations of La
Sale, La Hentar, Crozu and other French discoveries
and gives clear and comprehensive account Of the geog
raphy and physical characteristics of the regions which
they penetrated and of the tribes which they found scat
tered their surface These subjects are of more par
euar interest to the student of history but they
nevertheless necessary to give view of the past
of those countries, before which opens future Of
splendid promise. Mr. Hale has made himself acquainted
with the experience Of every noted traveller and explorer
of Kansas and Nebraska in relation to their climate
ers valleys SOIL face of the country, &C., which he has
carefully digested and printed in this work He describes
the military and trading stations missionary posts pro.
eced towns and Cities &c. and furnishes the kind of
information which the emigrant wants.
Mr. Hale publishes the Kansas-Nebraska act which
opened up those regions to slavery part of their po
tica history also, compendium of the debate in Con-
gress it, together with account of the Emigration
societies instituted encourage the immigration and
Element of freemen in those regions.
Mr. Hale is a clear judicous, and practical writer
is admirably fitted by his experience and constitution
of his mind to write just the book needed by those who
intend settle in the territories. We heartily commend
his book to the public. 1t sf,r sale at VIM Aliens Book

PAUL JULIEN will give his concert on We'd
nesday evening. 1t will be an era in musical
performances in this city, and if we are to
credit the unanimous testimony of the press
wherever he has been, it will be one of the
richest treats in the musical line that we ever
have had. The Syracuse Journal thus speaks
of his concert in that place:
We were present at the concert given by
Paul Julien and his associates on Monday
evening, and were pleased to see that they
were greeted by so large and fashionable an
audience. The performance of Paul Julien
is beyond description. We have heard Ole
Bull and several other distinguished Yiolinists
but we must say, i'll all candor, that we never
have seen Julien's equal. The lament upon
the death of Madame Sontag was most heart
melting.
But what shall we say of Mad'lle Durand.
We expected much but our expectations
were more than realized. Though laboring
under severe indisposition, she sang sweetly.
Her manner Of singing Comm thro, the
Rye far surpassed anything we ever heard.
The Scotch dialect is given to a perfection.
She possesses one of the sweetest voices we
ever listened to. We can safely say that she
may be ranked among the first in her profess
sion now extant. We bespeak for her a
golden harvest, and cordially commend her to
thh press and the public.
Herr Charles Weise performed beautifully
on the piano, and elected great applause from
the audience.

scarcity of water retards operations somewhat
in certain localities.
Two men, foreigners, detected in disposing
of stolen cattle at San Antonio, were dragged
out of the prison where they had been con-
fined, and hung to the nearest tree, without
any kind of trial.
Three towns, Mokelumne Hill, Camposece,
and st. Louis, have been burnt. Total loss
100000.
Emigrants were pouring in rapidly, by way
of the plains. Chinese were also arriving in
great numbers no less than 2400 in the fort
night. .
w. B. Atkins, charged with the murder of
w. S. Way, of Boston, has been discharged,
the Grand Jury failing to find bill against
him.
A negro had been arrested in Tuishomne,

Two tribes of Digger Indians had had
pitched battle on the 3d. on Ascension Flats,
Eldorado county. At last accounts, five war
riors had been killed, and many wounded.
The battle was still going on.
SECOND DESPATCHED the month OF
August only 90 deaths occurred among the
adult population of San Francisco. The city
was never more healthy.
News from Nevada to the 2Sth says that
French Corral, town Of 70 to 100 houses,
had been burnt the previous night.
Walter Sherwood has committed torgeries
in San Francisco for 1850.

Blake, was killed by the accidental discharge
of gun in his own hands, whilo shooting in
the woods in this town yesterday afternoon.
He had fired one barrel Of his piece, and was
then seen by boy who was in company with
him, to put the muzzle to his mouth and blow
on the empty barrel, when, in dropping the
breach upon the ground, the other barrel,
which was probably cooked, went off, and the
contents were lodged under the tight ear,
causing his immediate death. He was %
