Messrs. Geo. P. Rowell & Co., the
celebrated and popular New York Ad

gross and detail for large customers in a
better and cheaper mode they can do it
themselves. This we sincerely believe
they can do, because it is their sole busi
ness their speciality, because they got
space at lowest wholesale rates, and
because of their intimate and confiden
tial relations with publishers. If we
wish to spend ten thousand dollars in
ceneral advertising over the country,
notwithstandin? our own experience and
knowledge of advertising styles and of
rates, we would employ them under cer

WATCHING ailOl'.XD.
Andy Hopkins, Buchanan's Land Of
fice Register at the time of the Saline
Land Steal, and present partner of J.
Sterling Morton & Co., has been in Ne
braska City for the past two or three
weekB watching around to discover some
oophole by which they can yet consum
mate the swindle. "The way of the
transgressor is hard," and Andy Hop
kins is a liviDg evidence of the fact.
Twelve or thirteen years ago, at the time
the swindle was perpetrated, Andy Hop
kins was a young man, full of life and
vivacity, while to-day his locks are gray
and his face careworn and he loses the
Salt Lands besides. What does it profit
a man if he gains the whole salt basin
and becomes prematurely old. It Lj no
use to wait, Andy. Attorney General
Roberts and hia acting Excelleucy, W.
fl. James, spurred on by the Herald,
propose to see that the interests of the
State are preserved We know it is bad
to bid "farewell forever" to the hopes
which have haunted you and Morton
for year?, that you would some day be
wealthy at the expense of the people;
but the die is cast, the people are
aroused, and you had best retire in good
order.

It is all very well to talk, and to tell

and for the past two weeks there has
hardly been a day that they have not
been compelled to run an extra to keep

OUR WYOMING LETTER.
Fort D. A. Russell, W. T.,
Nov. 13th, 1871.
Dear Herald: At a most unpoet-
ical and unreasonable hour in the morn
ing, I left my comfortable home to re
turn to my post. 1 do not think 1 ever
left home with as much regret as at this
time. The kindness and courtesy of my
fellow-citizens has always been so marked
that I have become very Etrongly attach
ed (o our young city.
I spent a day in Omaha, and marked
the improvements going on with great
satisfaction. The new high school build
ing and the new hotel would te a credit
to any city on the continent. The new
Custom House and Post-ofSce building
will be also a grand structure. The R.
R. Bridge across the "Big Muddy" as
sumes form and proportion. To a nov
iciate it seems a flimsy structure on
which to trust one's life and limbs in a
car; but those who ought to kuow pro
nounce it safe.
I left Omaha in a severe rain storm.
For eight hours or more it literally
poured, so that by the time the cars left
the lower part of the city was well nigh
submerged. "All aboard" is sung out
by the conductor, and an immense load
of human freight slowly move from the
depot. The cars were crowded not a
vacant seat, and many had to stand for
the first few miles. The road is liberally
sustained aud receipts increasing every
month. There were several passengers
who had lost their all by the Chicago
fire, and the recital of their sufferings
was heart-rending. A large number as
they came through the fatal city, had
procured relics, such as melted glass
tumblers and other ware, ana were tax
ing them to the Pacific coast.
Just now we are having quite an ex
citement at the Post. The 5th Cavalry
that has been here for some time has
been ordered to Arizona, and will start
in a few days. The severing of ties
formed in the army is painful, as army
neonle are as one family, aud in this
case there is no probability tint we shall
ever meet again. A farewell tanquet
will be given to the regiment by the 9th
Infantry, which will be a superb affair.
The Legislature is iu session in Chey
enne, and considerable interest is mani
fested by all iu its proceedings. The
Question of removing the Capital to Lar
amie City will be agitated, but is t hought
that Cheyenne has much the best show.
Laramie may get the penrtentiary build
ings bv wav oi compromise.
The weather is delightful, and riding
on horseback is a luxury. A gallop of
ten miles over the plain on a hne road
ster brings the blood to the surface, helps
digestion and greatly sharpens the appe
tite.
The condition of the Post, morally and
socially, is good.
Respectfully yours,
A. WRIGHT,
Post Chaplain U. S. A
It is stated that there is hardly a man
in Corsica who would not gladly give his
last drop of blood tor the advancement
ot any person bearing the name ot lloria
parte. The Corsicans still reverence the
name of the first Napoleon, whom they
speak of as "our godlike fellow-country
man, and the greatest of all Corsican
heroes."

I don't think that the Almighty made

granite. Two modern carriages may
nass each other upon the summit. It
has a para pet throughout its whole length,
with convenient staircases, buttresses,
and garison houses at every quarter of
a mile, and it runs, not by cuttint: down
hills and raising valleys, lut over the
uneven crests of the mountains and
down through their gorges, a distance of
a thousand miles. Admiral Kodgers and
I calculated that it would cost more now
to build the great wall of China through
its extent of one thousand miles than it
has cost to build tho fifty five thousand
miles of railroad in the United states
What a commentary it is upon the
ephemeral range of the human intellect
to see this great unitarian enterprise, so
necessary and ensctivc two thousand
years ago, now not merely useless, but
an incumbrance and an obstruction.
