THE FREEDMEN*?K BUREAU AGENTS I IN TEXAS.-Our advices from Texas are to the effect that the outrages upon j the negroes and tho corruptions of! the agents of the Freedmen's Bureau have exceeded anything that has been discovered in any other localty. The investigation there bids fair to un- ? earth transactions -which -will throw j the operations of the agents in North | Carolina all in the shade and make ? the latter appear honest by jyny of ' contrast. Texas is so far away from | the national capital that it seems that j the men in charge there imagined ! that they could do just as they pleased without being found ont. But the ? investigations of the Special Commis? sioners reveal most extensivo frauds, even to the extent of kidnapping ne? groes and other transactions of an equally corrupt character. The public j may very soon look for fur more ex- i traordinary developments from that quarter than anything which has yet appeared in connection with the ope rations of this Bureau. It is this ! kind of work that the radicals in.' Oongress are trying to defend and ; continue for three or four years more, : aud to such men a~ chose who aro en- ' gaged in this business that they desire to give increased power and addi- j tional facilities to abuso the negro : and speculate in his necessities. The Pres; dent should make short work of the bill before him, aud veto it j without delay. There is no telling the extent of the abuso and corrup? tion that will flourish among the I agents of thc Freedmen's Bureau, if I the bill becomes a law. In the de? velopments which have already takeu place we have seen sufficient to cou- ( demn the whole system, and wo are promised additional evidence from Texas which will no doubt remove j even the last chance for their friends to defend the action of the agents of the Bureau.-New York Herald. THE NEWEST STATE.-Nebraska is | no longer a Territory. At the elec? tion last month she adopted a State Constitution, (by the small majority of 100,) and on Wednesday her Legislature elected Major-General John M. Thayer and F. W. Tipton to represent her in the United States Senate. Nebraska was organized as a Territory in 185?, by the celebrated Kansas-Nebraska Act. A letter from Porto Rico states that the slave population is rapidly di? minishing by manumission. The sugar and co?ee crops on the bland are not more than half thc- average. GERMANIA.
