wAsnINgroS, Feb. 20.
The bill heretofore reported by Lester Green,
which he intends to call up as soon as an
opportunity will admit, combines tho outlines
Ola territorial governmet, both for Dacotah and
Arizona, making them twin-sisters When
added as states il shall be with or without
slavery, as their constitutions may prescribe.
The Fugitive Slav6 Law is to be extended to
Dacotah, and tho laws passed by recent Leg
islative Assembly there, TO be in force until re-
Pealed by the Legislature authorized by this
bill; the Constitution ami all United States
laws not locally inapplicablc, to have the
same force and effect within the territory of
Arizona as elsewhere within the United Statcs.
In each territory the right of suffrage and
holding Office should be exercised only by white
male citizens of the United States, actual resi-
dents. The suffrage in Arizona extends to
those recognized as citizens by the Mexican
treaties
The number Of acres acquired by tho recent
treaty with the Yancton band Of the Daootah
Indians, is, 10000 900, for which the United
States agree to pay five cents an acre.
A public document shows that as far as tho
United States has undertaken the work in the
survey of its coast, the progress has been fairly
satisfactory. More than half of the Atlantic
and Gulf coast Of the United States, has been
completed in less than 25 years, giving fair
promise of tho completion of the work in IL
years moro. In point Of expense the opera
tions have cost much loss than similar ones In
Europe, besides being more expeditiously COM
pleted The survey has been extended into
every seaboard, state and territory of the
United States

A LAST ADMoNIrIoN.-A late reverend
clergyman, who was as well known for his
eccentricities as his talents. one day sent his
son, a lazy lad, about twelve years of age,
TO catch bis horse. The boy was sauntering
along with an ear of corn in one hand. and
the Bride in the other, dragging The reins
along on the ground.
''Oliver?' said his father, calling after
him in solemn tone of voice, ''come here,
Oliver, want TO say word to you before
you go''
The lad returned, and the parson proceed
I'd.
you know, Oliver, have given you
great deal OF good counsel You know I've
taught you, before closing your eyes, to say,
Now lay down to sleep,' &c.
besides good many other things in the way
OF eXhOrtation and advice. But this is the
last opportunity | may ever have OF speak
ing 10 you. Icculdn't let it pass without
giving you my parting advice. Be a good
boy, Oliver, and always say that pretty
prayer before going to sleep. fear l shall
never see you again.
As he said this in a very sad and solemn
manner the poor boy began to be frightened,
and burst into tears with this exclamation
'1ou Ii never see me again, pa?''

A ship has arrived in England from Sebas-
topOl bringing as cargo one hundred and
eighty pieces of cannon and two hundred and
thiriy-scvcn tons of bones. The town and
fortress Of Sebastopol still bears numerous
indications of the late dreadful struggle. and
but litIle has been done in the way OF restor-
ing the dilapidated ard shattered ruins of
the once fine and noble mansions, hospitals
and large public edifces, aud il is doubtful
whether any thing ever will be done, at least
before the lapse oi another generation. The
only thing accomplished is the reconstruction
OF IA few churches and the putting into good
condition the ruins OF the grave-ynrds con-
tanning the remains OF those who fell in that
memorable campaign. BOth here aud at Ink
tTman the ground is strewcd with evidences
OF the conflict, and numbers OF Jews, who con-

privilege, may daily be seen searching for the
bullets aud other debris of this kind. They

and with the money thus collected il is pro-

still INCREASING in its efforts to elect SHERMAN

democrats from the support Of man of the
Southern Opposition. 1t has been repeated
ly demonstrated that by such course the
Democrats could have secured the election Of
Southern man and STAKEHOLDER. But
that is not their object. They prefer the
election of a Republican. n follower of Sew

their man they kn0lo they have their choice
