Never wire truer words uttered by any man than are contained in the following brief sentence, which we clip from an 'editoriabarticle in the Omaha Republi can. We make no application of the truths, but leave that for each individual to do as seems to him most proper : "The Republican party is no appan age to any individual, and the attempt of mine few persons in this State to ar ray it into personal factions is at variance with its spirit and all its principles. Troubl comes wherever the personal policy is attempted." WHOLESALE HOLMES. There is demand in I'lattsmouth for at lat a half dozen large wholesale estab lishments, besides a large increase in the retail establishments. J here is a scope of country two hundred railes in length and not less than fifty to seventy five miles in width that would to-day bein? drawing every dollar of its supplies from I'lattsmouth if we only had the capital to supply it. We venture to -Bay that no point in the West offers the same i nducemcnts for the establishment of a fnw heavy wholesale houses as does our own city. Whea we say wholesale we do not mean simply a house where a box of aoap and a bolt of domestic may be purchased at a trifle less than retail price, but on establishment where country merchant can come and purchase bis tntire f-tock of goods at eastern pri ce with freight only added. It require capital for an establishment of this kind, but it will pay; and we cannot see why it will not pay even better than the same investment would in a city like Chicago, where rents, fuel, etc. arc much more tzpeosive than in I'lattsmouth. IMMIGRATION. Fillmore Co , Dec. 18, lsTO. Editor-Herald : There appears to exist, at the present time, a strong de sire, in this State to aid the homesteader. Various methods have been proposed to accomplish the desired object. It is thought by many that if present mate rial aid is offered the homesteader it will inuduce an increase of immigration, and the State will thereby gain an extensive producing population. Thi, doubtless, is a fixed fact. The question necessarily arises, what shall be done, and how shall we do it? We would suggest, first, what are the wants and indispensable necessi ties of the parties whom we propose to assist? Inquire of those in our midst who for th. past three years have worked early and late who have been driven to the verce of despair ! Those who have endured nr.told pangs of grief, hunger and cold, and from whose heart the last ray of hope had almost died out, yet w bo ding to their homesteads with the faint hope that one year more will drive gaunt want from their door. Ak the homsteaders what help they would like, and listen to their answer. First, we want mime place where we can procure provisions, farming implements and a small bill of furniture (say stove, table, chairs, Ac), with the privilege of paying for the same from the products of our farms in three, four and five years. No independent, industrious man with a team would ask more. If there comes one that has no team, arrangements could be made to obtain one for him on time. Second, let those interested in the development and settlement of our State, firm an immigrant aid society; let each member pay in say $50 to $100. The amount thus raised should be placed at interest, to be drawn. ay quarterly, or monthly as needed. Or, better still, let each township or county invest their proportion of the sum thus raised in such goods as the homesteader mav need a clerk be appointed by the stockhold ers, with instruction to do a general mercantile business, receiving nay in cash and produce, where the purchaser can pay. When he cannot let the clerk rive credit to a ccnain exteut, to be paid as above specified. The goods should be sold at prices that will cover costs, losses, Sec Let the shares be a? low as $10, if you please. At ten dol Lrs every man in the State would be come a stockholder in "The Union Store." If the capital is found to be insufficient, let the State loan, for ten years, with or without interest, say $25, OoO or more, to be delivered to the seve ral counties, and by them expe: ded. It should be the duty of the clerk to keep Coated and not let iwrsons run up large ills that there would be no probability of their paying at a specified time. You see, sir, that all that would be lost in this process would be the iuterest on the principal, and that would more than be made up in the advantages derived from the extra imigration it would induce.- The railroads in this and neighboring States, ia consideration of the princely donations they have received in lands " and bonds, and the advantages desived from an increase of population and local business, would doubtless cooperate with us in this plan, in a reduction of fare and freights. A plan similar to the y above has been adopted in other States and has worked admirahly. Why not in Nebraska? ffe see but one objection. It would materially effect existing busi ness houses in our lirge towns for a time. If any person in the State can propose a better plan, we are ready f receive it, and xritndraw. We would like to hear from others. L am sanguine if some - such plan as the one suggested be per ' fected and carried out, we would not have to depend on Europe for our set tlers, but that thousands of men, now ' struggling to earn the daily bread their children need, living in the grert cities of the East, would be glad to avail theui wlves of the advantages thus offered, "and in securing homes which persever ance and energy would soon make com fortablefind for themselves and child- ren that health and strength which they never would live fo enjoy in their con tracted tenements."

VOL. 6. WAR Af THE a- ALT WORKS! J. SterliDj Morton Arrested etit Larceny. For Front the Lincoln Journal CCtb. On SatunJuy eveninjthe Journal con tained the following news item : "Lincoln has a new citizen. Hon- J Sterling Morton found the door of a building at the Salt works open and took possession, carried in his bed, and has nt fnr bis fainilv. He will await an action of ejectment to test the right of property in the basin- We little thought when we inserted the above unsuspecting and un-sensation-al paragraph, that it chronicled the in ception of a conflict that should shake the Commonwealth of Nebraska from center to circumferanee Yet history or somebody else has re corded the fact that "Largo streams from little fountains How." It appears that the first intimation the public had of this transfer ofthe salt basin to the noted Sterling, was the Journal item, though Messrs, Green & Hebard, who supposed they were in peaceful possession of the pro perty, heard early in the afterr.oon that Morton had gone upon the pr.-mi.-Ci which were in the temporary custody of Mr. Donovan, who had left the key in the door while superintending the re moval of a stove and other furniture into the building. It doth pretty strongly appear that Mr. I), was in secret "ca hoots" with his fiiend Morton, having agreed to take care of the premises for the privilege of occupying the dwelling house until sprine. At any rate in a few hours after the ley had been given to him, he reported tnat Morton had ousted him and was running the ranche. About 9 or 10 o'clock in toe evening a complaint was made charging Mr. Mor ton with petit larceny in taking wooa from the pile of the fcalt Company and the key of the house. lhebhenft, with .Messrs. Lireen, lie bard and Marshal Hastings, as a pose. went down to the basin about 1 1 o clock and effected an arrest. While the party were emercing from the building, a scut fle took place between Messrs. Morton and Green for the possession of the door key, which re.-ultcu in favor of the latter. Morton being carried off, hi goods and chattels, consirting of bedding, writing material, double-barreled shot gun, knife and fork, sardines and crackers, and a bottle of kerosene, were removed. As soon as the Sheriff arrived with his prisoner, vigorous ruea.-ures were commenced on the part of the arrested. anainst his assailants, but the lateness ot the hour prevented them from being consummated, and the second load of belligerents that went out to occupy the hou-e, should the first crowd be placed under arrest, jointly occupied, the build ing till morning. The case was tc have been hoard this morning, but the prosecution failing to put in appearance, the prisoner pleaded "not guilty." and was discharged. EXITED M ATHS KKMATOR. For the past four months the proprie tors of the Omaha 7Vi7'ie have allowed a few old politicians to use its columns almost to tho exclusion of everything else, to the vilification of the Hon. John M. Thayer. They have acted on the as sumption that their daily issue would be entirely useless in this community if it did not contain dirty and low-flung de nunciations of this gentleman. In all that time they have sounded the depths of mean and disgusting personalities. They have imagined that this kind of journalistic tactics would annihilate Sena tor Thavcr and kill him off fur all time to come. Hut it has become generally under stood throughout the State that they have entirely overshot the mark, and their shafts of malice, so far from in juring Senator Thayer, have only re coiled upon those who have induced this little sheet to be used for such vile pur- )0ses; and the latter will discover, if it i.-ts not already, that a newspaper which allows itself to be used thus as a foot ball of designing politicians for the abuse of honored members of the same party loses all influence and respect in this tree West. Not one of those who have penned editorials for this sheet and in duced the known editor to father them, would have siened their own signatures to them and let all the world know who actually did write them for any considera tion whatever ; still, if the real editor wan foolish enough to rather them they were willing to use him for baac pur poses. Alter ail these futile enoris whicu tr.e Tribune has thus far made to "run" the Senatorial election, we would advise the little sheet to turn its attention to some thing else, and begin immediate'y to look elsewhere for little crumbs. It need not flatter itself that anything it may say or do will have one particle of influence one way or the other. The Republic n members of the leg islature are nearly all old settlers of t hi State, and have known Senator lhayer through a long military and senatorial career, and feel competent to the task of deciding tor themselves who shall and who shall not be our next United States Senator, and will not delegate the matter or transfer the job to a little newspaper which is a stranger among us, and knows nothing of the wants or desires of this people or the character and ability of the candidates After all that has been published by that little sheet, St nator Thayer to day stands higher in the esteem and confi dence of the Republican party than ever before, and although in the eyes ot a few ho may not be just what the.v would desire in all respects, still, taking all things into consideration, it is generally believed that he would serve its material interests and represent the political ma jority of this State in the Senate as well (it not more tmcicutly) as any other man from this State, and we believe he will be re-elected. Omaha Republican. The Omaha Tribune wants to know if we, among others, are in favor of a man for United States Seuator who has con nived at fraud Ac. After deliberation we arrive at the conclusion that a party asking such a question, who have them selves connived at frand and "owned the corn," has, to say the least, enough brass to do, under ordinary circumstances enough to supply Morton for a whole lecture.

PLATTSMOUTII, NEBRASKA, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 29, IS70 Our neighbor of the Ashland Times seems to think that the building of a railroad up the Wahoo by the B. & M. Co. would not be of any particular bene fit to the people of Saunders county, and he further indicates that the H. & M. folks have no intention of building such line of road. Well, that all may he so, but we would be pleased to have the Times cite a single instance where the B. & M. folks have spoken officially in relation to any matter for a sinister pnrposc. We have always supposed this company stood first-class, not only with western rncn, but with capitalists of the eastern States and Europe. We think the Times is piling it on a little steep when it insinuates that the B. & M. folks have no higher ambition than to attempt a deception on the people of Saunders county. They have a reputa tion that is worth more than all Saun ders county could ai l any road ; and then, we don't think the B. & M. folks have ever asked Saunders county to aid them a cent in the construction of said road, and probably they do not intend to. Will the Times please let them build a road if they deire so to do ? A fire ocourcd in Omaha Sunday morn ing, resulting in the death of one man and the loss of about $3,000 in property belonging to Iloagland & Son. The fire originated by the carelessness of a drun ken watchman, who lost his life in con sequence. The Republican copies the joint resolu tion of the Legislature asking the ap pointment of Gen. Thayer to a pUc3 in the Cabinet, giving the vote thereon, which make the more recent acts of some men look a little singular, to say the least. The Nebraska City Chronicle makes the following sharp retort to a grumbling subscriber, "l'our paper is very small, and contains but little reading matter," a gentleman remarked to us a day or two since. Our answer was, "My friend, your patronage is exceedingly light, and your subscription past due." Our Slulo Z-rht. The debt of Nebraska is comparatively light, but a portiou of it in the form of State Warrants are floating around and whenever transferred, at a discount. There is no good reason for this condi tion of things, and as it injures the credit of the State without any benefit srisine. it seems' clear that measures should be adopted to relieve us of this drawback. . Let there be a bill passed by the next Legislature funding all the war rants now out, after which the present rate of taxation will be ample to pay, on demand, all expenses of the State. Ten per cent, bonds equal to the present war rant indebtedness, placed at five or ten years would be souglit by capitalists a d provision can be made for their liquida tion when our population and wealth have doubled, as they must within the next five years. Let tins matter be dis cussed and brought before the Legisla ture. Chron iclc. "SOLD." Such was the exclamation of a certain not overly-wise chap the other day. He had received a private circular in which he was informed that by sending $10 the "party of the first part" in New York City, would send the party ofthe second part a larpe amount of "counterfeit money." He bit at the bait as a trout would at a fly, ond in due course of hu man events he received a package, C O. 1). (Come Ominediately lown"), by ex press. Fifty dollars were the charges. He paid them. Took his treasure in the rear of the express oihe-e to examine, and upon opening it he found a lot of old iron scraps, sawdust, and old papers No hope; SGh worse off than nothing. i Moral never patronize New York hum bugs. Sta lesman It is interesting to notice the effect of Miss Susan B. Anthony upon the Eng lish language. Here is an instance : ' I hold that no mau has a right (whatever his sex. of course), to have a garden for his own selfish u-e." In the hardware department, our fair readers will please bear in mind, hair pins are to called for as "switch tenders." Eastern dealers in fashionable wares complain that the market is flooded with chignons. In the language of the Fat Contributor. "Wat-eriaU was there, my countrymen 1" An Eastern inventor has contrived a new method of "aging liquors." Very much of the liquor down in that region is dam-aged already, however, and the in vention is consequently not in much demand. A listener complains that in the de bate at a late meeting of "Milk Produ cers' Association" in Boston, nothing was said about the most important branch ofthe subject the water supply. The New York Fenians want to fight under Butler, when he leads an army against England. As long as they follow Ben, their life-insurance policies will never be vitiated on account of extra risks. , Military men have discovered a new remedy for intoxication, which consists in eating raw potatoes. An ordinary "Murphy" will cure the most obstinate case in half an hour Somebody in New York, accusing Mrs. Stanton of bl indgeing in her gram mar, that indomitable woman replied thus: "That is nothing; we women have had no hand in making these gram mars. Ten t." one they are all wrong." A poor man, who less than one year ago, had only one suit of clothes, went into the newspaper business and has eight suits. Seven of them are for libel. Bazaine, as he lately appeared to a letter-writer, was a short, fat old fellow, would weigh far more heavily upon care than care would upon him. Mr.Greeley's last agricultural paper is on irrigation. He declares in a cur sory way that the Fitttte river ought to be damned. An Irishman, in recommending a cow, remarked, "She will jrive milk vear after j year without having calves, because she earne of a cow that never had a calf." BY TELEGRAPH. Bordfaux, December 24. In an official dispatch from Lille, on the night of the 2'ii Gen. Faidherbe announces to the Minister of War that his army engaged the enemy at Font Noyellc that da'. The battle lasted from 11 a. m. until 6 p. m. For the greater portion of the time it was an ar tillery duel, whi'di finally terminated by a charge from the French infantry along the whole line. The enemy were driven back, and the Freuch remained masters of the field. Advices from Paris to the evening of the 2-d, received by balloon, which land ed near Nuita, say there was no engage ment that day, but ft general battle was regarded as imminent. The journals estimate the losses of the French in onuhats on the 21st to be about S00 killed and wounded, and speak in glowing terms of the great co ifidenco displayed by the national guard. A cable dispatch from a private source in London of the 24th. is a confirmation of the iccent succe-tful sortie from Pa ris to the north, south and east, with the capture of several strong posit'.-ns ; but yesterday's announcement, from French sources, that two divisions of the armv of the Loire had effected a junction, appears to be without foundation. In fact, the general situation is encouraging for the trench. London, December 23 The Prussians have left Dieppe. Bu t.ire is encamped near by with a heavy force. Two French iron clads are sta tioned off the port. Late dispah-hes from Amiens report Gen. Mantcuffel near that city, and that a battle is probable. A dispatch fiom Brussels says General Fardherbe is bung surrounded by the Germans, and that tho Prussians have occupied Hissons and Sissore. It is said that the Commune of Lyons has sent an address to the French gov ernment wishing for fewer decrees anil proclamations, and more boldness and energy. During the sortie at Pari', on Wed-ne-d;iy. Duerot took many hundred pris oners. The ceneial situation is more encour aging for the French. llouen is evacuated by the Prussians. There was only 50 German soldiers there yesterday.

Havre is now so strongly fortified that no fears are apprehended of an attack. All the works about the city are fully manned and supplied, and there are sev eral war vessels rid'ng at anchor before the city. The fortifications on the land side of Cherbourg have been completed and armed, and, as at Havre, 'rigates are stationed in the roads. It is regarded as impregnable. Bordeaux, December 2o. Ten thousand Prussians, with artillery, occupy Blois. They pillaged public and private houses. Twenty thousand Prus sians occupied Orleans, niu and officers both robbing houses. Lond.iv, December 27. The sinking of six English ships in the Seine, by Prussians, for the purpose of obstructing its navigation, occasions great indignation in England. The British Vice Consul at Rouen presented to the Prussian commander formal pro test against the act. Mfzicrs is surrounded by 15,000 Prus sians and a siege is imminent. Bordeaux, December 27. At the grand review of the national guards here last Monday, M. Cremieux presented flags to the various regiments, and made a speech, in which he assured the soldiers that the republic would surely save France. Otileers and men were all enthusiastic in shouts for the Republic; and, as they passed the resi dence of the American Consul, cave ut terance to hearty demonstrations of friendship to the government and people of the United States. A dispatch from Susa announces that the Alps were pierced through yesterday and that the workmen from both ends of the Mount Cenis Tunnel joined in con gratulations upon the completion of the great work. Duesimcn, December 27. A dispatch from the commanding Gen eral of the Saxon troops before Paris an nounces that the bombardment of Fort Avron commenced to-day. This fortifi cation is the most advanced of the French outworks east of Paris, and crowns Mont Avron, a considerable ele vation six miles from the city wall. London, December 27. The Shipping Gazette, which at first doubted, now admits the truth of the reports concerning the treatment of British vessels in the Seine by the Prus sians, and declares that the Government mu:;t instantly demand the explanation and redress from Piussia. London, December 27. A dispatch from Versailles, dated the 23-1, says a scheme to assassinate the King of Prussia, Yen Moltkc and Bis marck was discovered here a few days since. A number of strangers arrived in the city on Wednesday, when the gates were closed and the citizens or dered to remain in th ir houses on pain of death. Patrols then searched every place ana arrested two hundred persons. of whom seventy were armed with guns and pistols. CI21CAUO JMKIiET. CuiCAfio, Decetnhet 27.
