GENERALITIES.
Newspaper Libel Suit,

The st. Louis ReDUOLiCdn Proceedings
have been instituted in the Circuit Court by
Frank Jilell against j. B T. Belohradsky, pro-
prietor of a newspaper known as the Ndrodtyy
NOCing, published in the Bohemian language in
this city, for an alleged libel. The plaintiff al
leges that on or about the 23d of April last the
defendant maiciOusly intended to iniure, and
for the purpose of harassng annoying, and
bringing him into public scandal and dsrepute,
published in said newspaper false, scandalods,
mischieyous libel in the Bohemian langua re,
thereby intending to charge plaintiff with having
committed the crime of robbery, and with being
a cheat, and having committed other dishonest
and dishOnorable acts.
"The defendant, it appears, inserted in his
paper communieation from paper called the
SldUie, published at Allegheny City; Pa, in
which something is said of the plaintiff being
accused of dishonest management in establishing
Bohemian colony in Nebraska and inveigling
persons by false statements
The plaintiff asks for $4,000 damages
Messrs. Jecko and Harper are the attorneys for
the plaintiff"
Americans in Dresden.
The Dresden Ndcbrichten says: San old gen
tleman, whose features strongly resemble tho sc
OF his Majesty King Johann, eXcites public at
tention by his singular military uniform. Edu-
Gated men, especially those who have travelled
recognize in it at once the garb of general of
the United States army. This man is General
Robert Anderson, who arrived here few days
ago with his family. Those who know the history
of the late civil war in America have long been
familiar with his name, in connection with the
great valor and skill with which he defended
Fort Sumter when the Rebellion began. Be-
sides this, he has performed good service in
several affairs with the MeXcans and the
Indians, and has won the general esteem of his
cOuntrymen, both here and abroad.
'As General Anderson means to make a pro-
longed stay in this city, and Commodore Wor-
den, the victor in the memorable sea-fght be-
tween the original iron-cad ships, the Monitor
and the Merrimac has also taken up his abode
here, we now have two of the heroes of the
American civil war peacefully dwelling among
our citizens, at rest from their deeds of war"
African Zoology.
An English steamer which arrived at Liver
pool from Africa, short time since, had on
board three giant chacmas baboons, two
crocodiles, several monkeys, and other speci-
mems of the natural history of the country. The
baboons were very ferOciOus, and possessed of
great strength. For their safe custody, strong
den with iron bars was provided, and placed near
the forecastle so that they could be constantly
under the eye of the crew. All went well
until the morning of the second day out when
crash was heard, and in an instant the
large chacma had wrenched several bars off,
and the next instant was on the forecastle, armed
with the bars with which he had been confined.
Here his majesty paused for moment, and in a
dignified manEer surveyed his captors. A rope
having been got, a moose was formed and cast
over his head and he struggled hard to eXtricate
himself, but without avail. He then attacked
one OF the seamen, whom he seized by the arm,
and, Notwithstanding that several of the men
be'abored him with weapons the brute would
not relinquish his hold until he had torn the
flesh from above the elbow to near the wrist, and
had been rendered insensible, when he was car
ried to his den.
