We called attention, a short time?ince,
to the necessity of our citizens moving
in the matter of a wagon-way in connec
tion with the railway bridge about to be
constructed over the Platte by"the B. &
M. Co. Unless steps are taken forth
with, we incline to the belief that tho
bridge will be constructed without a
wagoa way. Why do not our business
men agitate this matter, and see that a
committee is appointsd to confer with
the railroad authorities? This matter
i too important to be plighted. If it
tails let the fault be assigned where it
belongs.

We understand that or old friend and

some cause r other lost control of
the windlas and the tub containing rock
was let loose into the well, and only
missed crushing him by the windlass be
ing jerked off the posts, thus preventing
it from revolving.
Uncle John desires U3 to say that from
this time henceforth he is net in the
well business, and that parties having
wells they wish dug must cali on some
body who has no fear of a tub of rock
beiag let down on them from above.

The Union Pacific railroad company
have furnished, for publication, a lengthy
statement of the history and condition of

which it appears that the blockade had
been caused by weather unprecedented
in severity, withrn the knowledge of men
who have known the country for 25
years, and in spite of every possible pre
caution and eflort otthe company, which
has spared neither men nor means to
keep the track clear. The officers state
there has beei no suffering among pas
sengers on account of scarcity of provis
ions or fuel, and there will be none, as
each passenger train h is been furnished
ith ample supplies. J he blockade
exists only on a comparatively small por
tion of the road, and every effort is be
ing made in the face of all obstacles to
clear that portion. At various points
along the road there are about 800 wes
tern bound cars of freight, and 200 cars
of freight eastward bound.

A special London dispatch says the
English Government is continuing nego:

This is absolutely certain, and cannot be

Government go out on this issue, their

would be equally prevented from con
tinuing negotiations ; therefore, the ar

The JewslnEntland
The Jewish Chronicle (English) refers
at length to the intimate connection
growing up between the JewsofEngla nd
and the state. They were forrmot in
their loyaltj' to the throne during the
illness of prince ff Wales, taking the in
itiative in offering- up pra3ers for the
stricken prince, and urging a like course
upon their biethcren in the Holy Laud.
By recent bill in parliament the claims
of the Jews have been admitted to spe
cial legislation by rea-onof their religions
exigencies, and a Jew, (Mr. Jessel)has
been appointed to a pot in the exective
government of the country. The Jews
are not only in England, they are of Eng
land; they ere not only English Jews
they are Jewish Englishmen. Without
sacrificing Judaism, or neglecting its ob
servances,' or abandoning its claims priv
iliges and hope., they claim a full share
and interest in all national afeirs.
