There are numerous persons now resident in

Notwithstanding the failure of the
Government enterprise some years ago
of introducing Arab ships of the des-
ert" as a mode Of profitable transit
across the Western plains, it is stated
by the Baltimore American that sub
stantial Company is being formed in
New York, Washington and Balti-
more, for the establishment Of an Over
land Camel Line between the Missouri
frontier and California, by Nebraska,
Kansas and Colorado. Its eastern
terminus will probably be Omaha, to
which steam transportation is usually
open, and which is the Pacific termi-
nus also ofthc Pacific Railway, now be.
ing built westward from that point
The average carrying capacity Of each
camel is fully 1000 pounds, and they
can travel with ease for a month witt
full packs, with but an average Of
eight hours per day for rest and food
going twelve days at time with
out water, and living upon the most
scanty heritage. 1t has been proven
by experience that the camel will breed
and thrive in our climate and soil
where they have under the auspices Of
the Government, increased in numbers,
and have also improved in condition
and quality.

The Oldest man in America, and per-

American, born in the city of Detroit
September, 1926. He lived in the fal

civilized world save the Jesuit mis-
sionary. He was eight years the sen.
Tor of the immortal Washington, who,
though dying at ripe old age, has
been outlived by Greeley more than
half century. Greeley has been mar.
ried three times had a family of two
sons and three daughters the Oldest
son died four years ago at the age Of
one hunred and ten. Greeley is short,
compactly built man, and apparently
likely to live yet many years. He has
drank three glasses of whiskey per
day for very many years-no more, no
less. His memory is mostly gone /;
he is Union man, having voted for
Mr.. Lincoln at the last Presidential
election.

From General Grant.

The New York Tribune under date
of March 23d, says Zone Of our cor
respondents AYERS, upon what be
deems to be the best authority, that
Richmond is now being evacuated as
fast as possible, and that in a few
days it will be occupied by Union
troops without battle"
The Tribune's Washington specia
says ait is believed by military mel
here that the rebels will evacuate Ra
leigh and make their stand at Dan
vile, if they fight at all south of Rich
mond."
The Worlds special says "Gran
sometime since told the Hon. S. S. Co,
that he believed Lee desired the evac
uation of Richmond, but did not think
it could be done. 1t is very doubtful
whether Lee could SO much as begin
a movement without Grants knowl
edge, and once known our armies
would Immediately move"
The 5th corps correspondent of tn,
goth, says : Heavy rumbling, as 0
trains crossing pontoon bridges, is
heard every night from within the enc
my's lines, showing that they are &C
lively engaged in some movement"

American Ins. Co. of Dubuque

While in Dubuque the other day, by
request of DR.. VIM. Hall, the secreta-
ry and treasurer, we visited the Office
of this old and much abused Institu-
ton. Some people are led to think
this Company swindle, because they
are called upon to pay assessments. If
grumblers would look at the bundle
of proofs Of losses paid and to be paid
by the Company, they would change
their minds. When the American
gets out of debt, it will deserve the
patronage of the people of this State
as no company was ever more sorcly
tried, and that by fire, than this.
We understand from DIR. Hall that
he contemplates general consolida.
ton of all Iowa companies under a
special charter. If such could be
done, and then get State guarantee,
we could bid goodbye to Eastern Ins.
Companies in this State. A combina-
ton of all the Insurance interests OF
Iowa would form one of the most re.
sponsible corporations in the country.

Morality,

Most men are not SO dead to moral
principles but that they feel q spon.
taneous glow Of admiration for the man
who does right because it is right, nc
matter if he does make less money by
it. Some few men say he was fool
or lunatic not to make the most of
his advantage, right or wrong /; but
the heart of many is loyal to rcctitude.
We look and admire, and praise. We
cannot help it. He who in selfish,
covetous age, when all men are fighting
and scrambling for money, stands up
strong in his integrity, and modestly
does the thing-not that is legal, not
that is expected, not that is custom.
airy, not that is as others do, or as
many preach, but does the thing
which is right,-such man is worthy
Of all imitation. If the heavenly min
ded arc few in the world, are not the
righteous few likewise A moral char.
acter that is genuine is seen as rarely as
Diogcnes' man, when hunted for with
a lantern at MONDAY.

A Gallant Western Officer.

During one of the recent engage
ments, Lieut.. Col. Scott, of the 18th
Wisconsin, suddenly and unexpected
ly ran upon five rebels. Assuming a
bold front, he ordered them to surren-
der. One of them replied, al am hun
cry and tired | will do most anything
for something to cat" Two others de-
clared they would not. Eyes, you
will,' said the Colonel, "come here "
The fellow tremblingly took aim at Col.
Scott. You drop that" exclaimed
the Colonel, land come right here "
He did as he was told. "Now, hand
me that gun" He obeyed again. The
Colonel now having weapon to use,
took aim at the others successfully,
and, by the same cool effrontery al
ready indicated, brought them all to
his side, and took them in triumph.
Strange to say he was without his pis-
tolls, having no weapon to commence
with but his sword and his boldness.-

Our exchanges give intelligence of
prodigious freshets throughout the en-
tire country. Immense damage has
been done to property of almost every
Observation-Disclosures, houses, barns,
&c. One of the most heart.rending oc-
currences we read about, is that Of a
house seen floating down the Ohio by
the city of Cairo, in which were OBJ
served the dead bodies of man and
two children. They had, perhaps, gone
to sleep, unconscious of the danger
which threatened them, and at the dead
hour Of night, when dreaming of the
morrow and it's many visions glad
dening to the heart, were swept into
the current of the swelling river, to
find for themselves a watery grave.
Twenty houses at least were seen 60
ing down the Ohio in one day, and
numerous other trophies of value
passed the city unmolested.

DEATH OF AN INDIAN CHIEF Charley
Usage, a distinguished chief of the
Usage tribe, died on Tuesday last, at
the City Hospital. A few days before
his death one of his legs had been am.
putated, and he suffered greatly from
the operation. Charley was about the
last Of the Indian inhabitants of the
city, and was well acquainted with
the early settlers. In his younger
days he has been engaged in the fur
trade and was an active trapper and
hunter. Of late years he had become
demoralized by associating exclusive.
ly with the pale faces, and spent the
greater portion of his time in the coun.

English girl, and settled down to enjoy
the snug sum of $4,000 in gold,
which he had accumulated before his

sporting got the better of him, and he
bought seven race horses, and atten-
ded the different race courses in the
United Kingdom. The excitement and
high living brought on relapse, and
by the advice of his physician he visit

From General Sherman.

The New York Iribune's Wash
ington special says "news of the occu.
patton of Goldsboro', has been confirm.
ed by the statements of a trustworty
party, who has arrived here direct
from Ncwbern. Sherman's force was
disposed for march towards Mocha
let's Station on the railroad to Raleigh,
to destroy an important bridge across
the Neuse river. The centre had ar
rived at Goldsboro', and the right, on
Thursday the 2lst, formed junction
with Schofeld's force. at point elev.
en- miles east of Goldsboro'."
The steamer Starlight left Beaufort
on the Goth, arriving at New York on
the 23d, with important news. Des-
patches from Gen. Sherman fully con-
firm the capture of Goldsboro'. Sher-
man, who it was reported called for
reinforcements on his march north
ward, has received immense numbers
of troops from Beaufort by rail and
other roads to Goldsboro. 1t was be.
lieved that battle was imminent and
hence Gen. Sherman's army was swell
ed to an overwhelming, number
which may lead to a general retreat OF
surrender of the enemy. Reinforce.
ments and supplies had also been sent
from Newborn to Sherman's army.
Sherman's centre occupied Goldsboro
on the 10th. His left wing, on leav.
ing Fayetteville, moved in the direc.
ton of Mitchell Station, point TWEEN
ty-five miles west of Goldsboro.
Refugees at Beaufort and Moorchcad
City declare that the rebel troops are
demoralized and that their supplies
are beginning to fail. 1t was also re-
ported that part of Lees army had
gone to reinforce Johnston, and that
his main force was about five miles
north Of Raleigh.
The Commercials Washington spe.
cial says the War Department is re.
ported to have receivd a despatch
from Fort Monroe that Sherman had
arrived before the defences of Raleigh
Saturday. Having planted his guns
in position commanding the city, he
sent in a summons to Gen. Johnston
to surrender" The result is not posi-
lively known, however it has been ru-
mored through the streets of New
York that Sherman had fought a bat
tie with Johnston near Raleigh and
defeated him.

The clerks of the Richmond Depart.
ment have made piteous appeal to
the Confederate Senate for more pay.
In their address they say:
"The present compensation does
not shelter and feed them. Many
have families. They live on two meals
a day, in garrets, cellars, and in shan.
ties out in the suburbs. With the
strictest economy they can barely pro.
cure sufficiency of bread to sustain
life. One gentleman, wealthy before
the war, refugee and pauper since
with a family of eleven, has not tasted
meat in four months. Coffee, tea, su.
gar, delicacies or luxnries they have
neither in health nor i'm sickness
They cannot buy clothes, nor shoes, nor
hats. Even in the event of death the
last Office of earth would depend upon
charity"
