further facts, which the Chronicle should
know if it di'cs not, will be beneficial to
the people in making up a judgment on
this matter.
It was, perhaps the special duty of
Gen. Kobert.s to attend to this matter,
but Gov James knew that Roberts had
told out to Morton, and he also knew
that Huberts was not here ut the time
up p inted for the hearing. lie also
knew that the case "would go to the de;

what he says of tho Tamm-iny thefts :

From the Lincoln Journal.
Yesterday we published the proposed
Constitution in full, and now with our
readers we can examine it for the first
time as a whole, and make up our judg
ment upon the instrument. We still be
lieve, what we expressed as our opinion
last week, that notwithstanding there
are minor blemishes in some of its arti
cles, it is as a whole "an excellent body of
organic law and we are most earnestly in
favor of its adoption.
The Omaha Jhrull breaks ground
against it in its issue of this morning.
V e will, therefore, examine its objec
tions and fee whether there i.s any
foundation for terious opposition.
The Ilrrald says:
''First, in the constitution of the State
and county courts, making five District
Courts where three are only necessary.
The cost in direct taction for the pay
ment of increased f-a.aneas and espe
cially for the machinery of the county
courts, will be an onerous and unneces
sary addition to the public burdens."
To which we have to say that it is a
great mistake to claim that three ju
dicial districts is enough for the State,
even fo? the current year. Omaha has
her judge .tnd courts it is true, but al
most everv other county in tho Second
Judicial District are put to great incon
venience on account of the difficulty of
getting through litigation. We are of
the opinion that a Fourth District would
answer for the next year, perhaps for
the next two years, but no longer. It
would be absurd for the sake of saving
the paltry sum of ifA.tjoO, the cost of a
Fifth District for two years, to waste
$L'O,000 tha-, it has cost the State to
make this constitution. The ''ma
chincry of the county courts" is not an
onerous our len as County Juoges.
like Probate Judges, will receive noth
ing but their foes for their salary. Their
jurisdiction is simply enlarged to cases
ol $ ijO, and uirsdemoanors, in which
the penalty is a fine of not over $ (, or
imprisonment not exceeding six months.
The Herald further says:
" S.-fi.ii.Kv flu- nrnc.-r onn fr rrf.l iit.on
ti Legislature, which will be sine to be
excreted, of increasing the legislative
represent11'00 uf'er next year, from nine
teen Senators anil fifty-seven Itepresent
atircs, as provul u "ew Constitu
tion tJ thirty-thrt." Senators and one
hundred ;eprc-entat.,Tes. Jt means a
IegHature for a young sU'e cfloO.OOO
inhabiiints that will be almost equal in
number a.rd cost to those States contain
ing foUi or live million inhabitants."
It is begging the question to say that
the people should defeat the new consti
tution lest if it t adopted, they would
immediately comim a foc'isli net. It
the constitution did no adiuit ol the Iti
ture increase of the legisVvc ld. it
would be as short-sighted h.1! naiTW
mmded a concern as the one Ye now
have, which on account of the very sil'y
limitations, is outgrown in less th in live
years lifter its adopt on The people will
not increase the number of their repre
sentatives if they do not think they need
them, and it is wise and expedient, not
to ti ; their hands in tho matter.
The Herald's last objection is as fol
lows :
" Chui'-h Taxation. This is the nature
of an embargo upon tho progress of
Christianity in this new land, which,
at-ido fiom the incalculable injury that
would be wrought try it directly upon
the religiou and moral interests of the
people, 'would result in great damage to
the material welfare a:sd progress of the
State."
This alludes to the clause allowing
churches and the grounds upon which
they stand to be exempt from taxation
to tli? amount of $.,OiJ assessed valua
tion. Every one knows that a building
that would cost $!., 1 100 to i2ih)V0 is
rarely assessed at over $-3 Oikc So the
exemption is sufficiently ample.
There is probably ivA a church build
ing standing in Nel ra-ka that v.cuJ pay
any tax under this law, so that practi
cally the limitation amounts to nothing
at present. In two years af ter the ses
sion of the first legislature that nieet
this clause, if it is unjvopular, can be
stri.l:cn out by a vote of the people.
Why defeat the whole e: n-titution on
account of this triv al objection? An
objection that can be without expense
swi'pt out of existence in twenty-five or
thirty months, with hardly any percep
tible expense.
The fact that the new constitution is
full of important chanzes, changes
now most imyerativelv needed by our
rapidly growing community, will out
weigh in the minds of tle poople these
trifling faults, if faults they are.
Let it be remembered that not a sin
gle change or amendments can be made
in our present imperfect and v:; etched
instrument, in less time than three years
and at a lecot than 5i:tl, H) for a con
vt ntion, and several thoo.spjid more br
election. Then let it be remembered
that anv amendments or changes in the
new constitution can be mi.le in two
years without any expense, except in
publishing the proposed amendment m
the newspape-ts, and wo can. see how fur
lett-licd are those objections.
We guarantee that the Herald has
not publi-heil even a hint of its real ob
jections to the new organic law.

met with a serious accident on Wednes
day night. He was pissing up ?dain

ran over him, breaking one of his legs in
two places, in a most fearful manner.
The parties driving the team did not
stop to see what injury they had inflict

The editor of the Colorado Hera Id had
occasion to leave town for two or three
days, and he committed his paper, dur
ing his absence, to tho charge of a young
man, a novice in journalism, whom he
had just engaged as his assistant. Be
fore leaving, he instructed the ambitious
young editor not to permit any chance
to go unimproved to force the paper and
the very small size of the subscription
price upon the atteiitirn (,f the public.
"Always keep before your mind the fact
that the object of this paper is to ex-
f tend its circulation," he gaid ; "and
when you see a chance to insert a puff
of the Herald in any notice yoti make,
pile it on thick as you can. Keep the
people stirred up all tha time, you un
derstand, so that thoy will believe the
Herald is the greatest sheet in the
United States." The parting tear was
shed, and the editor left. The follow
ing night, while he was far away from

on the assistant devolved the duty of
announcing the sad intelligence to the
public. He did it as follows :
"uoNE, j;rr n-ot forgotten."

CLOSl.NO OF THE lOJiVLMIOV.
We make the following extract from
the Farewell Address of the President,
Gen. S.- A. Strickland, to the Convention
upon the eve of adjournment, and re
corn fcieftl its careful perusal by our
readers, more especially the fifth para
graph :
Gentlemen of tue Convention : .
Before performing the last act of my
official position. I may be permitted to
express the hope that the work we
have done will Lear tho inspection of a
candid public.
In 1787, in the Federal Convention
the engrossed constitution having been
read, IJjnjamin Franklin rose aud read
from his written speech these opening
words: "Mr. President: I confos-i
there are several parts of this constitu
tion which I do not at present approve,
but I am not sure I shall never approve
them."
In that convention and in the many
State conventions great exertions has
been made to injure public welfare. By
their labors we have tried to profit. We
are content to tra-t and await the judge
ment of our fellow citizens, to whoso
verdict we will bow with that deference
which becomes the servants of a free and
enlightened people.
Our gates are wile open to welcome
all who shall be pleased to come froirt
the over crowded lands of the old World
to the numerable, unoccupied and rich
acres of the new, where every bone.-t
man by earnest toil may make an ample
home. We welcome hem to a land
where no despotic ruler bers an iron
rod, and where. .:) cry cf nnuncssis ever
heard for bread.
For the many thousands who hare
come with every month from other
States and countries to our fertile bor
ders, and fr many more who are .' s-
nig after hem, we have made this Con
stitution, and have endeavored to make
provisions, not only for those now with
in our State, but the millions that are to
follow them.
So far as may be done by fundamen
tal law the aim has been to pay duo rc
g irfl to thejmany and sometimes conflict
ing iLterests of society. We havesouuht
t give protection to every industry and
ef.'couragement to every" labor. We
':aye striven to protect the institutions
of public learning and of philanthropy
that are under the State control. These
considerations inspire me with confidence
that the prosperity cf the State through
coming successive years -Hl abundantly
vindicate the rigL of this in-trument
to the respect of all who shall lire nuder
if."

The man who figures prominently in
American politics must possess both
nerve and hardihood, and be ptepnred
to sustain severe rebuffs at any and all
times, lie will doubtless Io-e faith in
human nature long before his career is
completed. He will be bro tght face to
face with so much glaring treachery and
hypoeraey that if he does not eventually
become a confirmed cynic he will at leat
"loam to put confidence in pretended
friends only after the most careful con
sideration. And if Lis talents secure to
J.fui all the honors he has coveted, and
which be may so richly deserve, he is
even then in a position of great peril.
His success interferes with the vaulting
ambition of other men, and they become
enemies of tho most iinp!ieah!o descrip

Therefore, when we hear cf the sudden
downfall of powerful and influential par

credit all the detractions we may hear
launched against them.
We regret to state that Governor But
ler, of N'ebnika, ha been impeached,
and remove ' f-om office under t ircum- j
stances of attempted disgrace. From a I
number of our American exchanges, J
however, we learn that tin-re is not an J
entire unanimity of opinion as to his
guilt. FJvon in the hour of his humilia
tion, he has not been left entirely friend
less. A number of prominent men have
bold'y advocated his cause, and appealed
to the public to suspend il censure, for
a time, at least. Such generosity wiil
go far to assuage his mortified pride,
though it wid not at once re instate hi in.
We have the honor of an acquaintance
with hin through the medium of cor
respondence, and have faith to believe
him a true getitieman, and have always
found him a prompt and energetic offi
cial. We believe him innocent of any
wrong, and are quite satisfied that Ne
braska will soon find it impossible to dis
pense with the services of a citizen of
such statesmanlike attainment. We
hope to see hiui yet prevail against his
enemies.

of this community.

Bishop Clark, cf Rhode Maud, spenk
ing to the Episcopal Convention recent
ly, strongly recommended the laity to
procure bfo-insuranee for the families of
their rectors, because he said, "not one
clergyman in fifty is able to save any
thing for the support of his family after
his "death." It is all verv well to say
that that the Lord will provide ; but the
sr.ir6 Miicgt'sthm might be used for abol

oil and whisky for consumptives, lie
tells us that consumption is a disease of
the system, which is specially developed
in the lungs by whatever exhausts t!-io
general vitality ; that the cure is to be
found in a cold, bracing climate, exe-icise
in the open air, vigorous friction 4 the
skin, a very plain, nutritious, uiistinai
lating diet, with cold water for drink,
plenty of sun-liine, sleep, and a hopeful
brave temper. "With such treatment,
and an utter abandonment of drugs,
whisky, cod liver oil, and other kindred
barbarisms, one half of all who die
of consumption would live on, and many
with large ulcers ir trt.'ir lungs would re
cover." A member of the Arkansas Legisla

As the sea -on for grapes is rapidly ap

portance to tho cultivators and coi.usm
ci s of this favorii"e fruit. While grapes
may be grown in such profusion and
with so little labor, it is a remaikabl"
fact that a suply for cvc.y hou: hold in
the country is not produced, not only in
tho regular season of them, but to last
till spring. There is no trouble irr keep
ing grapes through the winter as fresh
as when they w?re""'frst gathered. In
seasons when others fruit is scarce, no
greater luxury can be enjoyed than a
dish of fresh grapes in winter, In gath
ering grapes for keeping fresh, they
should be allowed to hang on tho vines
until fully ripe, and when gathered with

Tho rector of Wotton Barsett was the
happy hnsband of a wifv very la lvlike
and very lo7c!y: but very deaf. There
was a dinner party at the rector's ; the
ladies had arisen and gone to the draw
ing room. A Mr. Hare, ono of the gen
tlemen, followed them before his com
panions, and chancing to enter tho room
very quietly as a hare uny be suppos -d
to step a lady, behind whom ho stood
and whom ha had entertained during
dinner, observed to the rector's deaf and
ladylike wife (not knowing of course,
who was behind her): "What a very
agreeable man Mr. Hare is." The host
ess thought it was her loom and not her
company ir.t she had heard prai-ed, so
she answered ; "Yes ; and so warm and
comportablo a winter's night."
Tho Albany Journal says : "The sto
ry applied by Mr. Atkinson, twoor three
years ago to a Massachusetts politician
is equally applicable to the Democracy
and its "new departure." A green
lookiir Yerinonfer applied at tho otlico
of a chemist with a large bundle in a
yel ow bandana, and opening it, ex
claimed: 'There, do tf.uv look at that.'
'Well,' said the doctor, 'I see it.'
'What do you call that, doctor? 'I c:dl
it iron pyrites.' 'What, isn't that gold ?'
No, said th3 doctor, and putting some
over the fire it evaporated up the chim
n :y. 'Wal, said the poor fellow, with a
woe-bcfor-e look, 'there's a widder wo
man up in our town has a whole hill full
of that, and I've been and married her!"
The stuff" which tho Democracy offers
un 1 r the name of the "new departure'
is nothing but worthless pyrites and not
g ld at all. Tho country will beware
how it iutirri-js the widder VaUandbr
ham!"" Near Mt. Pleasant, in Ohio, men cm
be seen in the mowing field clad in shirts,
the latter like a woman's petticoat.
They defend tin's com nine as cool and
comfortable, and they hope to see the
day when every working man will wear
such clothes as be.-t con lueo io his eom
fort. They claim that the Jews and the
Deeip.es, and even Christ himself,
dressed in that fashion, and the idea
that it is ridiculous to dress woman fash
ion is -a modern idea. If women some
times wear. I troches", why should not
rr.cn some times wear the petticoat ?
Men have lights as well as women, and
we are glad to see that they are daring
to assert them.
