ss1s: Mr.. s.. B. Bevans, a prominent
dealer in cotton in this city, has failed
and made an assignment, owing to large
losses on cotton destroyed by the recent
fire in North Moore and Washington
streets. It is said he has few creditors,
and his remaining assets are sufficient to
prevent large losses to them. He hopes
to make arrangements to resume BUSH
ness in a very few days.

This brings the line to the eastern base Of the
Rocky Mountains and it is expected that the track
will be aid thirty miles further to Evans Pass the

mum grade from the foot of the mountains to the
summit is but eighty feet to the mile while that OF
many Eastern roads is over one hundred. Work
In the rock.cuttings on the western slope will
continue through the winter, aud there is now no
to doubt that the entire grand line to the Pa
chc will be open for business In 1870.

Great National Work ample The United States
grants its six Per Cent Bonds ut the rate of from
$4,000 to sisO 900 per mile for which It takes second
lien security and receives payment TO large ifno

Bonds Issued each twenty -mile section is
finished aud after it has been examined by United
States Commissioners and pronounced to be In all re-
spects hrst-class road, thoroughly supplied with
depots repair-shops, stations, and all the necessary
rolling stock, and other equpR Rents.
The United States also makes donation OF 12sOo
acres of land to the mile, which will be source OF
large revenue to the Company Much of this land in
the Platte Valley Is among the most fertile in the

heavy pine forests and abound in coal OF the best

The Company is also authorized to Issue Its own

At present, the profits of the Company are derived

completed the through traffic of the only line CON

From Santa Fe-Indians Becoming
Troublesome in New Mexico.

CHICAGO, July 3.-The following is
from the Denver papers of June 18th and
29th: Late arrivals from Santa Fe state
that the Indians are becoming troublesome
in New Mexico, carrying off stock and
killing one man in San Meguel county in
the early part of June. The Navajoes and
Apaches are especially hostile in their con-
duct towards the whites. Two coaches ar
rived at Denver on June 9th over the
Smoky Hill route. They encountered no
difficulty with the Indians, but were de-
layed on account of high water, which had
caused much damage to the Kansas Pacific
railway. Several streams were rendered
impossible. Later adyices report the rail-
way repaired.
A band of two hundred Indians attacked
Fort Wallace on June 22d, killing two
soldiers and wounding several. Three Iu-
dams are known to have been killed.
The Salt Lake Vedette, of June 18th,
states that the Indians are driving off the
stock from the Lower Beaver in Utah.
