lPron the Omshs Nsbraskian, Bxtra.l
About IL o'clock this afterEoon, Mr..
Wn. N. Byers, Of this city, A. Dean
Of Kalamazoo, Michigan, WIN. Chees,
and w. Defrees of South Bend, Iud.,
and ]. Stanwell, Of Morgan county,
Ohio, arrived in this city direct from
the Cherry Creek Gold Mines, having
left Denver City, the 9th ult. The
mines are proving valuable beyond the
widest expectations of the most san
guine.
The Gregory diggings alone are
yielding an average of about fifteen
thousand dollars per day. Other
diggings are doing almost as we'll. To
confirm these almost fabulous reports,
these men bring with them, - the
fruits Of their own labor, upwards Of
seven thousand fee hundred dollars in
shot and foat gold, and numerous
specimens of the richest and most
valuable Of the gold bearing quartz,
all of which we have seen. This, We
believe, is the largest amount of gold
that has been brought from the mines
of western Nebraska at any time, and
it settles the question as to the value
and amount Of the auriferous deposits
beyond any cavil or dispute.
1t is to be regretted, to be sure that
the gentlemen named above have not
brought with them, say q ton Of gold
each, in order to convince the noodles
Of many eastern journals who "knew
the thing was humbug," that gold
does exist at the eastern base Of the
Rocky Mountains, in quantities a tri-
flc larger than . goose-quill full. 1t is
great pity that the sapient eastern
editors who advised the destruction Of
frontier towns and frontier newspaper
offices, and connselled the hanging Of
letter writers and editors living in
Missouri river towns should remain
unconvinced. But such is the obdura-
cy Of the human race-the men whose
arrival we note, we're stupid enough
to bring with them but . trifle over
$1,000 in dust, and being poor men, it
is not likely that they will hazard its
loss by exhibiting it to the various
wiseacres Of those eastern presses who
howled SO piteously over the "stupen-
dous and wicked swindle."
The miners. those who work. are
reported as doing we'll \; while the
stampede Of the lazy, home sick and
vicious, is said to be still very great.
Horace Greedy was at Denver City
when these men left, but was expect
cd to leave for California the next
day.
Provisions were not very plenty in
the mining region, and they brought
good price, and it was the want Of sup
plies and proper machinery that in
duced the return of these men, and we
understand they will start for the
mines again in few days.
They returned with their horses,
by the way of Fort Kearney and the
Great Military Road, North Of the
Platte, which they all, unhesitatingly
pronounce infinitely superior to any
other. They were only seven days,
travelling time, making the distance
from Denver City to Omaha, with one
team having lost two days by stam-
pede Of their horses.

ATTEMPT UPON THE LIFE OF Louis
NAroLEoN.-The Florence correspon-
dent Of the Providence Journal, re-
lates the following story:
A French officer here tells the fol-
lowing story. He says it has not been
printed in the French journals-and
certainly we have seen no account
but tie fact is known to the army, and
tic story is true. Gu Good Friday, il
at no other time in the year, all good
Catholics partake of the communion.
On that day, the 2lst of April last, &C.
cording to his habit, the Emperor was
to receive the consecrated wafer in tho
chapel Of the Tuillcries. Before going
to the chapel, he was told that he must
not eat the holy particle that was to be
offered to him, as it had been prepared
with a subtle aud malignant poison for
the purpose of destroying his life. The
informant was party to the diaboli-
cal secret, bnt horror of conscience
and reverence for the Emperor, led him
to betray the conspiracy. The En-
pcror knclt at the altar during the
mass, but did not cat the bread. When
the mass was finished, the officiating
priest wss invited into the apartment
of the Empress to partake of COLA
tlOn while the wafer was cuhmiffod m
a chemical examination. 1t was found
to contain, as the informant had said,
concentrated poison. The priest is
now in a fortress in Algeria. The
soldier says the priest was an instrr-
ment of the Jesuits; but whether in
Italy, Austria, France or England, is
not understood. So much for the
story.

positively that the report put in circu-
lation by the Burlington Ho~keye,

ton papers In and out Of Iowa, claim Dodge
as o. Administration Democrat. while the
Dubuque Herald TO be followed by other
Douglas papers in the State) asserts posit-
vely that Dodge 10 with Douglas and stands
-quarely on the Squstter Sovereignty non.
intervention platform. Who is right :?
Somebody 10 lying. and some folks are bound
TO be cheated.-HaWkeye.
The" Administration papers" ofthe
State Of Iowa, don't claim anything Of
the kind. Whether or not Gen. Dodge
thinks as the President does upon the
Lecomption policy, we do not know
and do not care. What we do know
and all we care to know respecting
Zen. Dodge's political opinions is, that
he 10 a sound National Democrat. We
have not. neither has any other paper
in this State been informed in relation
TO this matter, and for ourselves we
reiterate that we don't care copper.
Admitting that he is Douglas Demo
crat, we shall support him just as ar
'lently. Having been away from the
United States during all this trouble
in the Democratic party, it is not
probable that he will take any
fierce position on dead ISSUE
We admit -. we know that nothing
would better suit the Republican party
Of Iowa than to raise an issue in the
Democratic party in reference to this
very matter. But gentlemen the
thing can't be done. The Democracy
Of Iowa are suited with the man as he
is-without asking any questions or
requiring any expeditions or explana-
tons. The party is on the same plat
form each member stands shoulder
to shoulder with his fellow the cam
paign has commenced, and its success
Is almost certain.
1t is the duty Of the Democracy OF
Iowa to support the State nominations
without caring to know what either
nominee thinks about dead issues be-
tween the President and Mr.. Douglas
or between anybody and anybody else.
We believe most emphatically ia the
policy of James Buchanan we belieye
ho was right in his Kansas policy !;
Others may, with equal honesty, think
differently: but this does not dcbar us
from supporting candidate who may
have entertained ideas of policy which
differ from ours.
We have not liked the policy pur-
sued by Senator Douglas, but if he is
the nominee Of the Charleston Con
vention for President of these United
we shall say amen, and pitch in for his
election with as much pluck - if he
were on the other side of the question.
Such, too, we sincerely hope and irm-
y believe, is the mind ofevery Demo
crat in Iowa.
So it is with Gen. Dodge. We have
heard it asserted that he is, and that
hs is not, an Administration Demo-
crat. There is not Democratic pa
per in the State that will ask that ques-
tion.-or that has any right to. He
is the nominee of the party /; he is in
the field-we must elect him and
in such case the gallant Democracy
Of Iowa will have the satisfaction Of
knowing that an honest man, an able
Statesman,a and sound National Dem.
ocrat fills the Governors Chair.
Then let the Republican papers Of
Iowa cease the attempt to make any
division 10 the Democratic ranks, on
this score-the game is stale-imprac-
ticable-foolish-it won't win.
