Double Murder by u Horse
Thief.

"Information reached us this morning oil
the shooting and killing, by horse thief,
of Samuel Steward and Reuben Palmer,
Of Eldorado. Both were Free State men.
They were pursuing horse thief in the
Cherokee Nation when he turned and shot
and killed them oth."-Topeka Tribune.
Since writing the above we have leared
further particulars of this affair, which un-
fortunately leaves us but little room TO
doubt that Mr.. Steward has been killed.
It seems that he and his companion had
overtaken and arrested horse thief, and
were returning with him to Eldorado.
While stopping at hctel on the road
the thief asked Mr.. Stewart to call the
landlord and "they would have some fun"
Stewart, not suspecting, stepped TO the
door, and hardly cleared it when the wretch
drew his revolver and shot Mr. Palmer, Kill
ling him on the spot. Stewart heard the
report ofths pistol and Immediately sprang
to the door, but, as he opened it, the vii.
lian shot him also, killing him instantly.
The affair has caused the greatest excite.
ment at Eidorado, and indn called Hill
debrand, supposed 10 be implicated in the
affair somehow, has been whipped and
driven out OF the country.

"FELoN FEAST AT OBERLIx-"- strange
and significant scene for this enlightened
and Christian age, and in our boasted Re-.
public, transpired at the peaceful and God
fearing and God-serving village of Oberlin,
on the afternoon Of Tuesday, the fith Of
January, 1859. 1t was literally the "Feast
of the Felons," for the Thirty-seven good
citizens of Lorain county, indicted by tho
Grand Jury of the United States District
Court Of Northern Ohio under the Fugi-
tive Slave Act for the crime Of n conscien-
.ious and faithful observance Of the higher
law of the Golden Rule, sat down with
their wives and a number of invited guests
to sumptuous repast at the Palmer House.
It was in the best sense a good social diu-
ner, followed bv n real ''feast Of reason and
and flow of soul" The entertainment was
given by the indicted citizens of Oberlin TO
their brethren in bonds. Speeches were
made, toasts were drank, and letters read,
and q glorious and ''improving" time gen.
orally was had Cleveland Leader. - 10

THE LATE EMPERoR OF JApAx.-A let.
ter from Japan says: "The name Of the
late Emperor Of Japan, as written down
for me BY the young interpreters, wss
'Casaduco.' He died Oh the night Of Sep
tember l6, and of course did not hear Of
the homer we Americans paid him in our
soasts at the picnic at Moge, on the 9th
of the same month. As before stated, he
was SO years old only, and had twelve
wives. Some Of the Dutch residents say
he had no sons, and adopted one for his
successor, bu. my interpreters assert he
had one, who is between Is aud l6 years
old, and who has asccnded the throne.-
Neither widows or daughters, according to
the japanese constitution, are allowed to
succeed a deceased Emperor, but he is per-
miited, in the failure to have son, 10
adopt any one he pleases, who, upon tho
decease Of the Emperor, becomes the sov-
ereign without opposition"

E There have of late been some ter
rible speeches in Congress. Anderson, oi
Missouri, made a genuine filibustering har.
angue the other day. He went in foI
thieving in the abstract and concrete, and
under all conceivable circumstances. He
is pretty fair writer, a tolerable speaker,
and no fool, but the morality of his speech
would put any ordinary devil to the blush.
He would steal Cuba, Mexico, Nicaragua,
and anything else We want. He seemed
to think it right to take Uhot we 'Oant.
Just think, Mr.. Anderson, how magnani-
nous it is to let alone what we don't pant! !!

WASHINGTON. Jan. Is. 1859.

The administration is fully assured ant
satisfied that the past differences with Eu
ropean Powers regarding Central America
are in the way of being settled honorabl,
and usefully to the country, and if presen
negotiations are not interrupted BY tiIlibus
tiers or revolutions, few months will plac'
us in the position we desire. To this end
il is deemed wise not to disturb the Clay
ton-Bulwer treaty at present. The admin
istration cannot make public the nature o
these negotiations while pending, but it il
fully satisfied of its position.
The House Committee Oh Foreign AT
fairs will, at their meeting tomorrow, ac
definitely UPON the question of placing in
the hands of the President sum sufficien,
to negotiate for the purchase of Cuba
They will probably agree upon seven mill
ion dollars for that purpose.
The business of the Committee of Ways
and Means is delayed, waiting for informs.
ton asked for from the Secretary of the
Treasury. The Committee wants to MS.
certain precisely when the first and success.
i've ins,alments of Treasury notes, and how
much in amount, will be due, and what nc
tion will be necessary, under the low state
Of the Treasury, to meet them. There is
some apprehension, from the apparent in
difference of Congress 10 the actual neces.
sites of the government, and from the lin
tied term of its existence, that the Presi-
dent may be under the necessity of calling
an extra session. Such an anomaly and
disgrace to the party, rs n Democratic
President having to call Republican Con-
gress TO his aid, through the neglect ofa
Democratic Congress doing its duty, would
be unprecedented.
The Pension bill, which passed the
House last week, meets with no favor from
the administration. It is considered that
the admission of that principle involved in
the bill would open the door to such un-
limited claims as would bankrupt the gov
ernment. and that it is especially uncalIed
for and impolitic at the present time.
The Senate Territorial Committee met
this morning, and had under consideration
territorial organizations for Dacotah, Ari-
zona and Coloha. The Committee will
not report any bills until certain Indian
treaties now before the Senate are confirm
ed. Senator Douglas, since ], S deposition
as cllairma2, declines to meet with them.
