[THE following extraordinary relation is literally ITUG. It has been communicated to us by one of our oldest and most rcspcVt- ^dissipated, and died in a slio.t time, able citizens, and.- is furlber substantiated\ 1 .'' lornmilt tel,s \ s llmt 1,0 ,,as ™« c! e nn by tbc concurring testimony of the senior editor of this paper, who knew both of the men spoken of, and has never heard the story doubted. Major John Dougherty, the \ Kentuck\ mentioned, is still living in Clay county, Missouri, which he has represented in the legislature, besides having filled the important post of Indian agent. Ho was urinous in his youth, among the prairie and mountain men, as a hunter of extraordinary skill and endurance. Wo should like, of all tilings, to hear his own statement of an adventure winch is certainly among the most marvelous^ ever beard of out of the pages of 'fiction—if, indeed, fiction lias any thing to compare with it.] In tho ycav 1818, tho Missouri Fur Com pany had a post below Council Bluffs, named Fort, Lisa, after the gentleman who had established it. There was much compe -tition in the trado at. that time, and it was a great point to select tho very best men for runners. Mr. Lisa had with 3iim a young Kentuck ian, named 1)., a fino daring fellow, with a frame of iron, tho speed of an ostrich, and the endurance of a camel. He was fovttm nfe moreover in tho retention of a half- breed, called MAI, BCSUF, who, notwithstnnd ing his name, (bad beef) was considered of liardly less merit than D.; and between tbo two men, consequently, a keen rivalry ex isted. D. had travelled, on foot, from Blackbird Hills to Fort Lisa, a distance of 00 miles, in thirteen hours! MAL. BOEUK also boasted some astounding feats of • bot tom,' and both wero stationer! at the Fort during the time wo speak of, for the pur pose of providing venison. One evening in July, tho weather ex tremely warm, the grass high, and the post were unfurnished with meat, the two men were playing at cards, when their employer camo up, reproached them with their negli gence, and ordered them to start, the first thing in tho morning, on a hunt. Obe dienco was promised, of course, but the game continued, each moment growing more desperate, tho spirit of rivalry pervading their hearts in every thing, till, finally, morn ing broke as the hnlf-breed declared himself to be broken. They fell asleep on tho spot, and the sun was well up when Mr. Lisa, in formed of tho case, again approached in no pleasant humor, it may be supposed, cursed, sacre'd and carache'd, until tho delinquents, fully aroused, and a little ashamod, took their; guns and started off for Papillion crock, on tho edgo of tho prairie, about five miles off. There they discovered a gang of elk, when the Kentuckian suggested a plan of approach which would enable them to get a good shot. The half-breed rankling at his companion's triumph tho night pre vious, observed, sullenly: \I don't kill elk with my gun, but with my knife.\ # The, pluck of tho Kentuckian was aroused m an instant, rightly interpreting the vaunt as a challenge to a trial of speed and hot bluff—ascended—crossed—descended—one resolve uppermost in their minds, \never to say fail.\ League after league tho chase and race continued, the men panting like hounds, cooling their mouths in crossing an occasional branch, by throwing up the wa ter with their palms, but \still unpausing, until approaching Elk Llorn river, a dis tance of twenty'miles, by mutual agreement they took a circuit, with nn increased speed, got ahead of tho elk; and actually prevented them from crossing. Leagues and leagues upon a new track the cbaso continued, tho animals by this time so exhausted by heat, thirst, and above all fright—for the hunters had incessantly sent forth their yells, in this case as much a scream of mutual defiance as an artifice of the chase, that they scarcely now exceeded their pursuers in speed; tho latter furied and maddened with excitement, redoubled their efforts, until tho elk, reaching a prairie pond, tho hunters at their heels, plunged despairingly in, lay down,, and .abandoned themselves, heedless of all else, to the grat ification of their thirst. Tho frantic rivals, knife in hand, dashed in after their prey, began the work of slaughter, pausing not till they had butchered sixteen elk, dragged them from tho water, and cut up and pre pared tho meat for transportation to the Fort., whither they had to return for horses. LTad tho victory ended ? No! for victory or death was tho iuwnrd determination; and as yet neither had given way. Off dashed again the indomitable half-breed and at his side tho unyielding Kentuckian.— Uidgo and hollow, stream and timber— t'-ere was no yielding now—in desperate silence wero left, behind. Tho sun was sink ing—blind, staggering on they went—they reached tho Fort haggard, wild and voice less, as from tho fires of the savages, tho gauntlet of fiends. A crowd gathered round the exhausted men, who had arrived together, and now fainting, still side by side, a long timo before they wero enabled by signs and whispers, to tell that they had ran down sixteen elk, and yet couldn't say which was the best man ! This feat brought upon D. an affection of the lungs, nor did ho recover his strength for several years. lie is still alive, a quiet ind influential citizen.

Electric Telegraph between England and America. The project of connecting telegraphically, Great Britain and America is at tho present moment seriously engaging the attention of scientific- and commercial men. Daring engineers are sanguine of the practicability of iaying it sub-marine cable directly across tho Atlantic, from Oalway to Capo Race, in Newfoundland. Tho chief question is, whe ther, if a lino were laid, an electric current can be passed through three thousand miles of cable. Professor Faraday and others, whose opinions must ho regarded as weighty, believo that it could not. \And so,\ says tho Glasgow Commonwealth, \ ly far the larger proportion of scientific men favor the route to America via Scotland.\ \To escape the at prcrcnt dubious ocean I path,\ says a well-informed wri; r in the j uncut number of tho Quarterly Review, The Sandwich Islands.— Terms of Annex ation. NOTWITHSTANDING tho contradictory ru mors in regard to tho Treaty for tho annex ation of the Sandwich Islands to the United States, thero is no reasonable doubt, not only that a Treaty providing for annexation has been agreed upon, but that it is now in this country, for tho sanction of the General Government. It was a matter of notoriety at tho time, that Mr. Gregg, tho U. S. Com missioner at tho Islands, was sent out with full powers, to agree upon a Treaty ; and undoubtedly tho present Administration is ambitious to identify itself with the con summation of an act so important and po pular as would 'be tho acquisition of these prolific Islands of tho Pacific. Mr. Gregg, as is well known at Washing ton, has been indefatigable in prosecuting the duties of his mission. IFo met with ob staeles at the outset from the fact that he was a Catholic—an almost unpardonable offence in tho estimation of tho present Ruler of tho Islands. But this obstacle was overcome; and Mr. (>. soon found his propositions received with marked favor by nearly all, except tho heir apparent, and a few of his immediate friends and partisans. It is believed that at least four-fifths of tho natives, and nearly as largo a proportion of tho foreign residents, are in favor of the measure. Indeed, it is well understood at Washington that tho only opponents of an nexation, of any influence, aro among tho French, Germans and English, who aro ap prehensive that their business and influence would bo materially injured by a union with this government. We learn, from well informed sources nt Washington, that the terms of tho Treaty are substantially as follows :— Tho Islands are to be at once admitted into the Union, vol as a Territory, but as a Stale —with full State sovereign powers.— In consideration of this surrender of their National sovereignty, the United States, be sides agreeing to respect all existing chart ers, land titles, &c, aro to pay-some §300, 000 or S '100,000 annually as life annuities to such persons as the sovereign authorities shall designate. It is believed- that tho number who will bo declared entitled to share in this annuity, will not exceed over thirty individuals, including tho King, his two sons, and tho members of tho ITouso of Nobles, all of whom are now rich, and con stitute the great landholders of the King dom. Their ages will average about forty years; and the sum to bo paid to each will censo to be a debt upon tbo U. S. Govern ment at their death. Besides the sovereignty of Jho islands, ail the Government property, including build ings, claims upon foreign governments, &c, will, it is understood, bo transferred to the U. S. Government by\ this Treaty. The va lue of these buildings alone are suid to ex ceed §1,500,000, and tho Claims upon tho French and British Governments to about §500,000 more; making an nggregato\ of §2,000,000. Thcso terms, although not extravagant, are sufficiently liberal. Tho Islands would prove important acquisitions to tho United States commercially and politically. Our rapidly growing commerce- in tho Pacific require' fhem, as places of trado and shelter. Their products aro exactly what our ships requiro, itnd in tho event of a war with any commercial nation, their possession would bo invaluable. Nor will all the benefits of this acquisition be on our side. The Islands themselves will at once feel tho impulse of new life, and become, ultimately, as rich as they are now salubrious. But, thero is ono additional fact, which cannot fail to have an important influence in tho decision of this question. Those Is lands—thanks to tho spirit of true Christian Indian Massacre.\ Defeat of the Troops from Fort Laramie— Government goods captured. SARPY'S POINT, Nebraska Territory, ) 8 miles off of Kort Laramie, Aug. 21, 1S0-I f On the 17th of August a train of Mor mons passed this place. »The Indians, who wero encamped here, waiting for their pay ment from Government, had no provisions, and wero of courso anxious for something to eat. As tho Mormons wero passing, a lame cow, belouging to a man in tho rear of tho Mormon train, becamo frightened and ran into tho Indian camp, Tho Mor mon left the cow behind, and ono of tho Indians, a Minnccosha, shot it down, and with his companions cat it up. Tho Mormons then went to tho Fort and reported that tho Indians had killed one of their cows. On the 19th, about two o'clock in tho afternoon, Lieut. Grattan, with a command of 27 soldiers, and Augustus Lu- cicn interpreter, arrived hero to arrest the Indian who had killed tho cow.

EoiTon: I bade you good-byo in tho Dusseldorf Gallery, and will greet you again from the same spot. Logging's great picture of the martyrdom of IIuss still hangs here; it does not. show to advantage, however; tho room is loo small. It reminds one of exhibit ing an elephant in a seven-by-nino shanty. I think tho coloring of this piece dull and cold ; also, I disliko tho loo minute attention given to detail. I wish that peasant girl's braids did not hang down so naturally that you feel an inclination to walk up and pull them, and that her basque did not wrinkle around tho waist in such perfect imitation of reality. This attention to minor matters has a two- Lieutenant and make tho arrest. They ac companied him, but tho Indian was not willing to give himself up, saying that ho would die first. While tho Bear Chief of the Wazazios was standing with 3 other chiefs, tho Little Thunder, tho Big Partisan, ami *he Man who is afraid of his Horses among the soldiers, the Lieutenant ordered his men to fire. They did so, and wounded tlto Bear Chief and his brother. But one round was fired, when tho Indians in turn charged, y,n\ succeeded hi routing the soldiers, and killing all of them with tho exception of one private, who is not expected to recover. Lieut. Grattan and two of his men were killed while standing by their cannon, the Lieutenant receiving twenty-four arrows, one of which passed by bis head. As soon I tion wi as tho soldiers saw their commander full they took to flight, and wero killed within half a mile of this place. Tho Ogalallali camp was about ono mile distant, and a white man named Soyfrey lott was staying there at the time. Being a Sioux inter preter, tho chiefs requested him lo slay be tween the camps to prevent the young men from charging the soldicis, but lie could not succeed, and barely escaped with his life. At my house wo wero placed in a bad si tuation. There were with mo Mr. Antoiue Reynal and Mr. Samuel Smith, with iiv u others, and all we could do was to stay in tho house mid try to keep the Indians mil As Mr. R. was standing in tho doorway of tbo house, an Indian rushed on him and tried to kill him, when another Indian, the Quick Bear, tried to kill tho first Indian for rushing on a white man, but some one caught Quick Bear's gun, and its contents went into tho wall of the house. By this timo a party had collected outside of the house, who tried to force their way in, but some of my friends—the Quick Bear and others, stopped them. After tho battle the Chiifs raino in my house and said that as the joung men had killed all tho soldiers that had come to fight them, they would now go and slaughter the rest of the soldiers at the fort, burn all tho houses, and kill all the whites on the river; but I told tho Chief to stop them from so doing, assuring him that since tho soldiers had commeuced tho quarrel it would bo overlooked by tho government But thev fold bad effect; in tho artist, it fritters awny his skill on unimportant things, and leaves him less strength for the great featmes of his work; in the spectator, it distracts tho attention, and prevents his getting imbued with tho spirit of the piece as it whole; thus an excellence becomes a defect. In compositions liko llnseuclever's Wine-tast ers, on the contrary, this fidelity in even homely detail is a great charm. I would liko lo write at length of the merits of this true work of art, and also to notice other pictures : tho holy sweetness of tho Adora tion—the exquisite beauty of Sohn's Diana and her Nymphs, and many more, but find that my limited space quite precludes the attempt.
