A NLAI IX THE I" ACE.
The Council Bluffs Evening Times hits
the bridcre farce a square one between the
eyes. If they only had "F. A. White,
lLq., rre&iJent, etc.," to take charge of
that bridge they might do something :
"'Another rumor to the effect that the
U. 1. bridge across the Missouri is toLe
built immediately, is gaining credence.
This work has been started (?) at lea.st
one hundred tiroes. Why it has not
been carried through is easily explained
by the initiated. This, the one hun
dred and first, and we hope, last time,
will undoubtedly bring about the con
lummation so devoutly wubed. "
BRIDGE WAXIER.
The rise in the river during the last
twenty four hours has been nearly three
feet. The landings which have been
built for the freight transfer boats, arc
nil washed out, an I yes-terJay no cars
were transferred across either way.
There already :w-ou initiated neatly 400
lauded cars on tliN s: .; of the river, and
if the rise continr. m Knot her day, and
washes out the bank as- bad as it has in
the !at twenty-four lirmrs. there will be
not less than six hundred leaded cars on
this side of the river awaiting trans
portation. We hope that some ar
rangements m:v be consummated where
by the work on the bridge unv be pushed
forward vigorously, and coniploted iu the
bhorcest possible time. C. B. Nonpar
eil, 10.
All that difficulty and trouble will be
done away with as soon as the great
through route betweeu the two oceans,
via Piattornoutli and Fort Kearney is
completed. It is now going westward
or tli r:ito nf a mile a uav. lhere is
no difficulty in crossing the river here,
and no difficulty in the way of building
a lac bridge, cither.
THE K. R. L.4SB fllESTIOX
of whether the Midland
1a,.;fVir nnv other State lbuhoad Ins
anv vested rijihts in lands beyond that
secured for the ten
miles already
con-
.trii-t.l. is attracting much at tent on
among our Legislators." I f our railroads
nontinne at. a "luck" until the the next
session, we have reason to believe an ef
fort will be uiada to repeal the law.
Xeb. Citv Chronicle
If wc are not mistaken a prominent
lawyer of Nebraska City claimed, at the
time of the passage of the bill granting
those lands, that it did not give the com
pany rested rights farther than they ac
tually built roads in accordance with the
provisions of the bill, and he was ex
ceedingly anxious to have a slight cluing
made so as to give them vested rights.
Should his idea prove correct (as the
.Jl Mmmro was not uiade a repeal of
thi law would stop all further sub.-idics
under the act.

The following is a letter clipped from
the Toledo Bind', and as it contains just
tha facts we arc most anxious to bring
public attention to, we copy it:
Nebraska City, May G, 18T0.
Editor Blade : Of all the States in
this Union of thir y-seven, to-day, none
is more justly and deservedly claiming
the attention of the landless and the
homeless than Nebraska. With an area
of over 75,000 square miles, or a territory
a fifth larger than the six New England
States, and capable of sustaining a popu
lation of from 5,OO0,.) to 6,000,000 in
habitants, a soil as productive as can be
found between the two great oceans that
wash the shores of this continent and a
climate unequaled for in illness and salu
brity. Nebraska to-day presents the finest
openings for immigration of any part of
our wule-spreaJ anci aunieuve iana.

the equal to this.
The settler here can build his home
and surround and furni.-h it with the
couifoits of life at less cost and in shorter
time than almost anywhere else and it
only needs a stout heart, patient and in
dustrious hands for a man to speedily
work his way to competence ana ease.
Everything here Feems to favor the poor
man striving for a home of his own.
The cost of land is reasonable if purchased
while thousands of acres are yet open to
homestead or pre-emption, held in ftore
by the government for the actual settler.
The cost of cultivation is slight compared
with other localities. Taxation is made
as light as possible, there being no State
debt whatever; while the laws of the
State have been so carefully framed as to
defend and protect the interests of the
debtor rather than the creditor aid the
resident settler rather than the non-resident
speculator.
To illustrate: In order to encourage
as much as possible the settlement and
improvement of this country, the law
stipulates that for every acre cf land
planted in forest trec3 $50 shall be drawn
from the amount of assessable property,
and for every acre planted in orchard or
fruit tree3 $100 shall be so withdrawn.
Thus, if a man's ftrm be house, barn,
etc, with ten acres planted to orchard,
and the Fame amount in forest trees
the whole worth $4,000 yet so improved
as to he valued at only the $11, with the
additional advantage of $1,500 draw
back, thus paying no taxes whatever in
the rule, while the speculator owning
property adjoining worth one-fourth as
much pays taxes on the valuation, $11.
Thus it is said that the law3 of . this State
are arranged to ftvor the settlement of
the country and discharge speculation in
its lands to the injury and exclusion of
Immigration.
A residence of nearly two years here
has convinced me that thousands scat
tered throughout our country could do
no better than to emigrate to this State.
It is true that they might find themselves
deprived of some of the comforts and
luxuries of their Eastern homes, but a
very few years of industry and economy
would suffice to surround them with all
and more than they ever possessed be
fore. Under their own vine and &g tree,
with a home of their own free from the
avarice of landlords and the oppression
of rich employers and sou.Iess corpora
tions, they can here secure what there so
many dream of, the quiet and rest, the
comfort and luxury of independence and
a dignified manhood.

An Infernal Crime.
The New York Herald says :
Tha crime charged against a man
named Lange, a dealer in picture frames
in this city, is one that should give him
a pre-eminence in the criminal catalogue
for diabolical intent. lie shipped a box
in April last, on the New Orleans steamer
and secured an insurance on it of one
thousanu six hundred and fifty dollars,
and the box proved to have been pre
pare with explosive and inflammable
material, and was only prevented from
burning the ship by the watchfullness
and activity of the captain. In the box
were vessels of alcohol, gasoline and tur-
Eentine, and fire was apparently to have
een set to these by a chemical that
would explode with slight friction. The
friction was provided f r by mice shut in
a box, who, in gnawing their way out,
were to fire the train that might have
destroyed the ship and Jill her company
at sea. Here, then, is, if the charge
prove true, a man who deliberately con
trives that awful calamity, fire, on a
ship at sea contrives the possible fright
ful death of twenty vr thirty persons
to secure the fcinall prize of sixteen hun
dred dollars insurance money. He should
be tried by a jury of sea captains and
sui'ors. 1: is a remarkable coincidence
that this crime was - attempted against
the steamer George Washington, while
some years since a crime of the same na
ture was contrived in Lhc shipment of
goods on the Mississippi steamer Martha
Washington.

There is talk of introducing into the J
United States Senate a "macnine ior in
stantaneoua voting." This wonderful
apparatus is thus described :
"Each Semttor will have before him on
his desk two kr obs, one marked yea, the
other nay. Whichever he presses at the
word "vote,' will be marked by punch
ing a hole on a roll at the clerk's desk,
(on one side or the other of his name)
and the number of ayes and noes will be
indicated on dial visible from every
seat."
' A Democratic exchange suggests an
improvement on this idea, and recom
mends that we have gulta percha Sena

sideration, and it is soruothiug to flatter
our local pride that Kansas has ahead
made some progress in that direction,
having reached as far as the first syllable
of the first word. Whether wc shall
complete the leform next winter remains

Why did not the gentlemen composing
this honorable body refuse $150.00 for
the advertisement of the Burlington &
Missouri Iliver Railroad aud tax the
State appropriation with the amount?
This question is agitating the Omaha Ile
pul.lican and ltulo Register. They say
the IJ. & M. It. It. niap, is the only ad
vertisement in the German and Scandi
navian pamphlets issued by the Hoard,
which h literally true. And why did
they not insert more advcitising? Sim
ply because no other corporation or busi
ness firm oflered to pay the rates .uked
for advertising in those pamphlets.
That thev did not know advertising was
solicited by the Board, is no excuse, for
nearly every paper in the State published
their circular number 3, entitled adver
tisements. Now, the great trouble with
those croakers, is simply, as a gentleman
suggested in our hearing, this: they are
endowed with a spitft of low-bred "cus
seuness ' that prompts them to abuse
every honest man that goes about his
business without asking advice of them.

How a Woman Keeps a Secret.
It ii an old ouin upon women that
they cannot keep secrets ; but the fact is
they are the only part of humanity that
can. A wile keeps a husband's secret
incomparably saier than he does hers.
e calculate that there is one drunken
wife to about four hundred and niacty
nine drunken husbands. In rambling,
licentiousness, lying, cheating, bypocricyvJ
covctousness, there is pretty tuuen tne
same proportion. Yet of the four hun
dred and ninety-nine wives, four hun
dred conceal, cover up, silently endure
the terrible secret ; while the one hus
band mourns over his wife's frailty in the
study of his pastor, and to the ear of his
friend, and probably complains ot it to a
court of law. It is the same between
brother and sister. The secrets a wo
man talks about are of the kind that are
unimportant and mostly agreeable to
hear. But of serious secrets the is as
reticent as the rave. That is our ob
servation, and in our various relations of
physician, minister, and unordained law
yer, we have had run for a great deal of
observation. Baltimore Church Advo

Lo! the poor Indian did not find much
sympathy from General Washington,
who in 1779 thus wrote to a Committee
of Congress :
"My ideas of contending with the In
dians have been uniformly the same. I
am clearly of the opinion that the cheap
est and most effectual mode of opposing
thorn is to carry the war in their own
couutr-. The object
is to gUe peace and security to our fron

A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.

About half-past six o'clock on Tuesday
evening, Mr. A. Southard went down
into Esquire Frank's well for the pur
jHise of getting a bucket that had been
in the water for several days, and when
down about twenty leet the wall fell in
and buried him. Two of Mr. Frank's
family were lowering him on" the well
bucket, and as soon as the wall gave
away, gave the alarm, and a large-crowd
of people were at the scene in a few min
utes. At this time there wa very little
hope of rescue, although his voice could
be distinctly heard from below. Judge
Dundy and J. G. Good were first to go
into the well for the relief of Mr. S ,
and were, when exhausted, relieved by
others. The excitement was great, as
would be naturally expected, but was
greatly increased by the presence of his
wife and children, who could hear his
voice, without hopes of ever seeing him
alive. All present, were of course beset
by the moat terrible apprehensions,
though his voice could be heard dis
tinctly, urging the workmen to relieve
him, still the work went ou, and about
half past eleven the man was uncovered
and drawn", as it were, from the jaws of
a terrible death, aud restored to his
family. He declare:, that with the ex
ertion of a few uirly bruises, he is un
hurt; and at the time of going to press
is doing finely.
Mr. Southard is a relative of Esquire
Frank's family, and lately arrived at
this place from Pennsylvania and has
purchased a dwelling in town with a view
to making it his permanent home. -

the names, as near as we can ascertain.

New York, on their way home, and re
peated what the President said concern
ing Fort Fettermau : It must remain,
and they would be started on their home
ward journey, which infoimation was
recived by the Indians with unmis
takable signs of delight, lied Cloud
spoke in reply, evincing most certainly
his dissatisfaction at the determination
of the Government not to remove Fort
Fetterman. and said there was no ne
cessity for its continuance ; its presence
was a useless burden and expense to the
Great Father. He also took exceptions
to roads running through his country,
and intimated that, if trouble arose, it
would be the fault of the Great Father.

Dickens was at dinner when lie was
seized with a fit. Dr. Steele, for many
years family physician of Dickens, was
immediately called in and remained till
nearly midnight ; considering the pa
tient as getting worse nnd werse, it was
deemed advisable to summon physicians
from London. Tcleirrfms were promptly
dispatched, and this morning several
London physicians arrived at Gadshill ;
a consultation was hsld and the case was
at once pronounced hopeless. The pa
tient sank gradually ana died at fifteen
minutes past six this evening. Dickeii3

Senator Morrill, of Me., chairman of
the committee of appropriation, and dele
gate Iloor.er, of Utah, had an interview
with Red Cloud last evening, during
which the Indian chief said there would
be no war if the whites waited for the
Sioux to commence it. His people hav
ing no food, go to hunt, and when they
went out to kill game they were shot at.
This made trouble, and the Indians get
the blame, for they have no writers or
papers.
Mr. Hooper told Red Cloud more than
80,000 Mormons had crossed the Sioux
country in the last twenty-two years, and
they never lost a lite, an annual or a bale
of goods until the railroad was built,
since which they lost some property on
the train.

fairly with his people.

Lut for a l';:ir comparison the average prie at

Take for example the a vera fie price of 10.53

Tiiis comparison is not made to prove that the
School Lands have been sold too hitth. but to
prove that the law of this State has been riUiiied
by actual and numerous sales at auction, ort-r
the minimum prirt Jij-r.il, via: Seven dollars per
acre; and the average valuation of the li. & iM.
R. R. Lands is ratified by the same intelligent

Railroad Lands have another advantage in
the fact, that a buyer can choose out of ciithtem
sections in a Township, instead of being confined
to only two School sections.
