CITIZENS ABRoAD.-Senator Conness has
introduced in the Senate a resolution to
amend the bill. concerning the rights of
American citizens abroad, providing that if
any citizen is arrested in contravention of the
intent and purpose of this Act, upon the al
legation that naturalization mas not operated
to dissolve his allegiance to his native coun-
try, the President be empowered. if Congress
is not in session, to suspend, wholly or in
part, our commercial relations with such gov
ernment; or when no other remedy is avail
able, to order the arrest and detention of any
citizen of such government who may be found
within our jurisdiction. except Ministers and
ambassadors. and to report such proceedings
to Congress upon its next assembling. This
is good proposition, and would serve to
show that Congress was in earnest about Sc.
curing protection to our naturalized citizens

REcoNsTRUcTIoN.-The enabling bill for
the readmission of North Carolina, South
Carolina, Louisiana, Georgia ard Florida
into the Union. passed both Houses Of Con-
gress over the Presidents veto, and as soon
as those States comply with certain require
ments, their representatives will be admitted
to seats in Congress, and their restoration
will be complete. The strong rebel element
in Alabama, Mississippi, Texas and Virginia
will probably prevent those States being ad-
mitted for some time to come. This is not to
be regretted, however, as nothing but mil
itary government can keep in subjection the
lawless element which renders life and prop
erty insecure in those States.

We have grown weary of recording fatal

with some wnrkmen. who told O'Connnr they
had rung it up and he had better not try to
get on, as it bad already started. O'C0nnor
disregarded the warning. and sprang on the
cage. but his his lead caught between the
timbers and the ascending cage. For two or
three seconds his head held the cage at the
station. but at last the bones gave way. and
his body rolled off and fell on the boards
above the sump, lifeless and bloody. He
was taken up and conveyed BY his comrades

disclosed that it was impossible to save the
mans leg, and it was accordingly amputated
above the knee. If nothing unfavorable oc.
ours, Dyer will soon recover. as he is a man
of temperate habits and strong constitution.

able energy and promptitude in protecting
the public from imposition through spurious
limitations of their invaluable medicines.

SHOCKING SUICIDE.--Some three months
since woman representing herself as the
wife of man doing business here in the city,
and having just arrived from the East to
meet her husband, after some years separa-
tivn, took rooms for herself, her reputed
husband and her little girl. about six years
of age, at 500 Dupont street. The family
lived together in apparent perfect happiness,
no one in the house suspecting that the rela-
tionship between them was aught but what
had been stated. Yesterday afternoon the
little girl, who had been playing outside the
door, went into the sitting room occupied by
he- mother, and finding her asleep on the
sofa. as she supposed, endeavored. but with
out success, to awaken her. Frightened at
last at her mothers silence and immobilty,
she went to the lady who keeps the boarding
house and asked her to awake her mother.
The lady went to comply with the child's
request, and was startled and shocked beyond
measure to find that the poor woman, instead

and evidently died without struggls The
pistol had been held SO close to her bosom
that no report bad been heard by anybody
in the house, and the entire charge had
passed into the cavity of the chest, causing
internal hemorrhage only. There was no
appearance of blood about the person, save
small stain on one hand and the face was as
calm and placid as if she had been merely in
a calm slumber. The deceased was appa-
rently about 30 years of age, of very prepos-
sessing appearance, and probably American
by birth Her real name is said to have
been Mrs. Ellen C. Cox Alta.

FIoHr WITH A BEAR.-Last week. while
Jerry Moody was hunting in the neighbor-
hood of Round Mountain, he came in con.
tact with an enormous bear, which he fired
at and probably wounded. At the crack of
the gun the bear made for his assailant, who
ran to u tree aud commenced climbing to get
out of danger. but the enraged animal was
too close upon him to permit him to do So
Rearing upon its hind legs it grasped Moody
and brought him to the ground, when it bit
and mangled him in horrible manner. The
bear finally left him, and the wounded man,
with great difficulty, made his way to a
neighbours house. His recovery is considered
doubtful.

WANTS TO FoRGET.-The Nevada Trans

P Fitzgerald before a school meeting, and
left much disgusted with the views advanced
by this shepherd of the Methodist Church
South. The editor comments on the speech
as follows
The recent little family misunderstanding
must, he says, be forgotten and forgiven. We
cannot allude in the school room to the reb-
els. and when questions are asked by the
children as to the battles fought and victories
won, we must inform them that all Ameri-
cans are brethren and that Pttsburg Land
ing. Gettysburg and before Richmond, are
only fields where this brotherly love was
manifested Away with such nonsensical
stuff. If children cannot he taught the DIFF
ference between patriotism and treason, we
had better give every public school house in
the land to the flames, and burn every text
book issued from the press. If the terrible
lesson of the late war and the noble example
of patriots are to be lost to concliate any
body, we had better give up all hope of the
Union. No government can exist when he
who takes up arms against it is designated
by any other name than traitor, and no peo-
pie can expect to prosper who blot out their
own history and forget the lessons it
teaches.
