yesterday.

Lisbon, was appointed Consul General
of France for San Francisco, vice
Charles De Acosta, deceased.
General DavIs's official report, head
quarters in this city, respecting the
Indian outrages at Alaska, is published.
The Indians guilty of the recent muir
ders, belong to the warlike tribe called
Kake or Kekans, who committed many
murders and outrages, and heretofore
always escaping punishment. Upon
hearing OF the murder Of traders, Gen.
Davis proceeded by the steamer Sagi-
nav to the neighborhood OF the tribe,
and finding it deserted ordered their
villages to be burned. The tribe were
much frightened at the summary man
ner dealt with, and promised to surren-
der the murderers whom the command
ing General determined to promptly
execute. Gen. Davis does not antici-
pate any serious trouble, but feels that
he is muster of the situation. The
steamer Saginaw is to be properly ht-
ted out and proceed again to the neigh
borhood of the kakes and further
punish them if tho murderers are not
surrendered.

The Georgia Question.

The bill introduced in the House
Thursday by Mr.. Butler, to restore to
the State of Georgia the republican
stitutiOn, recites in a preamble that the
Legislature of Georgia has refused to
purge itself of the members who were
disqualified by the constitutional
amendment, and has expelled legally
qualified members on the ground that
they were persons of African blood,
and that the State authorities are wholly
unable or unwilling to protect the
lives, liberty and property of lawful
and unotfendiES citizens, thereby
proving that the people had not COM
piled with the terms or coniormed to
the principles on which the restoration
of Georgia was provided for, and that
the Government thereof is not in fact
Republican or regular. 1t there
for authorizes and directs the Governor
To summon forthwith by proclamation
all persons appearing TO have been
elected to the Legislature according to
the proclamation of Major General
Meade, June 2I, 1865, to meet at At
lanta within six months of tho passage
of the act. Such Legislature is invested
with authority to make such enact
ments, and have such legislative pro-
ceedings as are authorized by the
constitution Of Georgia. The members
of the Legislature are to take the test
oath, except those whose political disa-
bilities have been removed by act of
Congress. The attempted expulsion of
African members is annulled and de-
clared void. The President of the
United Stotes is required to station in
the State of Georgia sufficient armed
force to carry into execution the act,
and its officers are required to render
aid and assistance in the administra-
ton of the Government on the demand
of the Governor.
