I' Dr.. Blackburn is making arrange
ments to move onto his farm in Atch
ison county, Missouri, early in the
spring. The Doctor, during his resi
dence In Browuville, has identified
Jumsclf .with the material, religious
' and educational interests of this eec
tion, and his removal will be regretted
by the better element of society in
this county. We hope that the Doctor
will yet re-consider the matter and
so arrange as to make hLs residence In

Some time since Horace Greely
wrote a letter to Gen. Butler, urging
him to lead a movement for Impartial
Suffrage and General Amnesty. Butler
- replies that at least six of the leading
rebels should have suffered exempla
ry punishment, and many of the bal
ance 'have been and the rest will be
relieved of all penalties so fast as
"fruits meat for repentance" shall
manifest themselves. Greeley's re
joinder may be found in substance in
this paper. Gen. Butler's bead is
level on the subject of Reconstruction.
Arrangements have been made for
a High School in London for the
winter term, for which purpose the
services of David Pierson, Esq., have
been engaged. The London School
has been needing for some time pasta
large building, as it is now much too
l.rger for one teacher to handle with
' profit to the scholars. The Christian
Church has been placed at the dispo
sal of the School Board for High
School purposes, with the hope that
the Board will be induced to build a
school house in the spring commen
surate with the wants of the district.
The hog crop in this State is rapidly
. tndving toward the eastern mark
end owing to the mildness of the
weather thus far, they are being ship
ped alive. At the present this busi
ness is very active in Brownville.
"We noticej that' the hogs are better
fattened and heavier this season than
last. More hogs that weigh over five
and six hundred than we ever saw
. . but of the same number. Mr. Horn,
of Peru precinct, last week brought in
several, one weighing 654 pounds.
J. Q. A. Smith brought In twenty-one
hogs last week. They were the finest
and fattest lot of of the season ; no
large, but showing good blood.
"NVe are indebted to Senator Tipton
and Commissioner Willson for a few
facts and figures relating to the rapid
settlement of Nebraska. During the
six months, ending September 30th
last, 487,511 acres of land were taken
by actual settlers for homesteads.
. Allowing 160 acres to each family or
homestead, and we find that about
3000 farmers and their families have
moved Into Nebraska and settled upon
farms duriug six months; which is at
At the rate of, say 5000 additional far
mers for the year 1S69 ; and allowing
" five members in the family, and we
have an additional farming population
of 25,000 this year over last. We esti
mate that all other professions and
.. trades have increased in the aggregate
an equal number. If so", we have
; added fifty per cent, to our 100,000
population at the close of 1SG3, giving
us now 150,000 population in the new
. State of Nebraska. A fair Increase for
1SG9.
"The poor ye. have always with
you," is a saying of our Lord and
Savior which comes home to us at this
cold, Inclement season of the year
with painful force, as the time ap
proaches in which we celebrate the
birth of Him who while on earth
. M wen t about doinij good." While there
ure many from one cause or another

with this world's goods, yet we know
.of none who are" absolutely suffering.
Still there is need of a charitable or-
ganization, the duties of which shall

must otherwise sut&r iu mind and
body, or resort to some hideous or re
volting crime for relief. Cheering
words, good ndvice, or assistance to
some healthy and remunerative em
ployment, Is what most are in want
of. People are too indifferent to the
feelings and sufferings of their neigh

comfortable, they are inclined to act
as though they have, done their whole

Cuba and the Cubans.
The American people naturally
sympathize with such as ar endeavor
ing to throw off the oppressive burden
6o peculiar to monarchical govern-,
ment, be they ; Magyars Italians,
Pollsr Irish, Mexicans or Cubans.
But when the country is essen
tially American, and the people
come within the ecope of the policy
so ably and so suscinctly laid down by
President Monroe, in language as fol
lows : First The. American conti
nent, by the' free and independent
condition which they have assumed
and maintained, are henceforth not to
Ikj considered as subjects for future
colonization by any European power.
Second. The United States consider
any attempt on the part of European
powers to extend their system to any
portion of this hemisphere, as danger
ous to their peace and safety; then
patriotism, honor and a sense of na
tional justice combine to awaken in
our breasts the memories which clus
ter around our own national strength
for independence, and marshall in
review, the wrongs, oppressions and
the trranical policy which our fathers
endured from the lumcfcj of European
powers prior to that time.
Cuba, the Queen of the Antillas an
Island of the American continent,
blockading as it were, the gulf enter-
ance to one of tbe largest and longest
rivers of the World draining as It'
does, the createst aDd the richest
portion of the American national do
main; has always been, is now, and
is destined ever to be an object of so
licitude by the American Government
and by the American people. At the
present time there is a conflict of au
thority being maintained thereon.
The eastern half is entirely under the
control of the patriotic Cubans. WesfcJ
Spanish hplding the commercial em-
porium Havana and the surrounding
country. The population of Cuba is
now estimated at 1,500,000, one-third
of which are negroes. Slavery exists
nowhere except under Spanish rule
the Revolutionary Government hav
ing abolished it The people of this
country have made many efforts for
freedom since the independence of the
Spanish Colonies in South America In
1836 ; but at no time have they been
near so successful as now. While it
has been the policy of this Govern
ment not to interfere in the conflict
of other nations, yet, considering
what the Cuban Government' has ac
complished, and the Constitutional
Government they are now maintain
ing over more than one-half of the
Island undisputed, and the deep
seated interest this nation must ever
have in securing for Cuba a Constitu
tional Government, should induce us
to accord to them beligerant rights
now, and an acknowledgement as a
Government dc facto in the immediate
future. They are entitled to and
should receive all the moral power
such a recognition carries with it.
We hope that Congress will not be
long iu demonstrating its sympathy
in appropriate resolutions, and in
doing what shall be deemed proper in
aiding the cause of iridependance in
Cuba. v

proposes to distribute the $41,000 of

upon the County Superintendent and

prompt action, and we hope there will

claims that Congress should set aside
the whole election as void, and declare
all acts of the new Legislature illegal,
and the call for a constitutional con

We print on our first page this week
a recitation for little boys. How many
of them will read it? We found it in
Tlie School Festival, a new magazine
published by Alfred L. Sewell & Co.,
Chicago, 111., which costs only fifty
cents a year. It is devoted entirely to
school exhibitions, recitations, dia
logues, tableaux, charades, etc. It is
full of good things for the large as well
as smaller children all original and
first class. Send the publisher fifty
cents, every one of you, and get this
little magazine for 1870. You will
need It this winter when declamation
days come.
we snouid use to go into every
house in the country when the Advcr
titer is brought in, and see which of the
boys and girls are anxious to read
what we publish each week. We
could then seleei those who are to take
the lead in society and public affairs
in the future. No young boy orgir
can afford to neglect reading his coun
ty paper. There are many things
printed each week that they should
remember. The one who does wil
have an immense advantage some day
over the one who prefers idleness to
reading. The reading boy will be
wanted where good wages are ready
for hira ; and the idle boy will find 1
hard to earn his bread, because he wil
have no knowledge of facts and of the
world, which will render his services
useful.
Boys form Ideas veryyoungof what
they wish to do when they become
men ; and they become useful mem
bers of society If they form industrious
habits while children, and store their
minds with valuable information
while at home and at school.

The Commercial papers throughout
the country regard the present low
prices of grain as only temporary.
The corn crop of 1869 was greatly re
duced by wet weather in Illinois, In
diana, Ohio and Kentucky, while in
the Eastern or Atlantic States.the gen
era! food crop was naturally shorten
ed by drouth. A deficiency in wheat,
corn, oats and barley, must therefore
be felt in the spring. From the
Mark Lane Express, of London, we
glean the following :
"The import of wheat into England
for the nine months endintr December
30th, showed a total desrease of 1,401,-
Russia, there was a decrease of 2.378.
330 centals and from the United States
an increase of 3,224615 centals, show
ing mat wnue itussia, the creat food
producer, fell off, this country, the ri
val producer, gained more than the
loss. Egypt, too fell off, 2,109,328 cen
and part of her deficiency may be
credited to the United States. The
deficiency for the rest af the year may
be supplied in tne same way.
How the export demand for 1869
compares with that ofl868 the follow
ing figures which give the exports of
flour, wheat and corn from New York,
to November 20th, of each, year will

Flour, bbls l&i.lX) 8784
Wheat, bu Ifl.rWViSS 4,JK463i
Com, bu l,664,2l -: - 6,tf78,(W6
It will be observed by the figures
that the United States has sent and
Europe has received from us more
wheat this year than last, but from
some cause or other, much less corn,
When these facts, together with the
falling off in quantity throughout the
States are taken into consideration,
our farmers will readily cnclude with
us that the price' of grain must be
much higher In' the spring than- now.

The Death of John JT. Celtl-IIti Be
ma ratable Career lit Connection
-with the Cunningham Bar deli Case.
John J. Eckel, a prisoner, confined
In tho Albany penetentiary for parti
cipation in whiskey frauds, died of
dropsy combined with disease of the
heart, in that institution at 5 o'clock,
on Saturday morning. ?
AN UNEXPLAINED. MYSTERY.
The death of this man recalls to
public attention one of the most tragic
and mysterious murders of modern
limes dastardly assassination com
mitted upward of thirteen years.ago,
and to this day, an unexplained mys
tery. THE BURDEtL M URDER.. .
On the morning of Saturday, Janu
ary, 1st, 18a7, Dr. Harvey Burdell, a
dentist, was found dead and horribly
mangled in his reception room,- which
is on ti.e ground floor of his residence
31, Bond street, in this city. The
body was found lying upon the floor,,
covered and surrounded with blood.
The doctor had been strangled and
stabbed, no less than fifteen wounds
of a dirk appearing upon his body,
had alwa3's been supposed to be a
bachelor, but on the discovery of his
death, Mrs. Cunningham, the house
keeper, a supposed widow, set up a
claim as his wife, which was, aftera
prolonged litigation disallowed by the
courts.
WHO WAS THE MTTRDEROR ?
The only boarders in the bouse be
sides Mr. Burdell, were George V.
Snodgrass, a young man of twenty
years, and John J. Eckel, ijotii of
whom with Mrs. Cunningham, were
taken into custody. In the course of
the inquest it was shown that Eckel
sustained a more intimate relation
with Mrs. Cunningham than a mere
boarder, and hence, and from other
circumstances, the theory was set up
by tbe prosecution that he committed
the murder, at the instigation of Mrs.
Cunningham, in order that the latter
might claim the deceased's property,
as his widow, to be then shared by her
ami Eckel. The inquest exonered
Snodgrass, but Eckel and Mrs. Cun
ningham were held for trial. During
the pendency of the case, Mrs. Cun
ningham improved an opportunity to
absent herself from public view for a
time, and then reappeared with a newr
born infant, to which she claimed to
have given birth Dr. Burdell being
the father. This baby scheme was
afterward shown to be a fraud, or a
mere ruse to aid in getting the proper
ty. JOHN J ECKEL THIRTEEN YEARS AGO.
Eckel was then a dealer in tallow,
171, Stanton street He was of a pow
ful frame, about 5 feet 8 or 9 inches
high, dark eyes, and soft, curly, brown
hair. He wore full whiskers. He
was about 35 or 36 years of age, at the
time of the murder, but had a
small bald spot on the to of his head,
over which lie wore a scratch. The
evidence on the inquest showed that
the relations between him and Mrs.
Eckel, were inconsistent witli vir
tuous principles. It was shown that
Mr. Burdell, was very jealous of Mr.
Eckel, and that the latter and Mrs.
Cunningham were in the bedroom to
gether for an hour or two, on the
night of the murder.
THE TRIAL. .
Mrs. Cunningham was tried separ
ate from Eckel, and acquitted of the
murder. E.kel'was then released from
jail, on $5,000 bail to appear for trial.
On the I8th day of May, 1So7, the in.
dicttment against him was taken up,
when on niotkm of District Attorney,
Hail, the trial Svas postponed until
the October terra of court, tho District
Attorney promising then to proceed L
with the trial or enter a nolle prosequi,
The case was never taken up again.

Grecly's Reply to Cutler.
The Tribune of the 20th published a
reply from Mr. Greely to Gen. Butler,
In response to hla fornietJetter on uni
versal amnesty ana universal surrraee
Referring to -Gen. Butler's opinion
that some half a dozen more or less of
the Confederates should have suffered
exemplary puuishment. Mr. Greely
says :
When five more years of peace have
intervened, I am quite confident you
will consider that two or three exam
ples would have been enough, and
after the lapse of five more years, you
will be satisfied that to have strung
up in 1865 him who was your choice
for President in isou, wouia nave an
swered the purpose.
He refers to many nistoncai prece
dents to show that seventies alter a
war, do not serve as a perpetuate pow
er. Iu short he says ir tnere be one
lesson written all over the face of hia-
torv. it seems to me that "pride coeth
before destruction" that the conq uer-
pr in a civil feud who has glutted his
vengeance, stands often very near hia
final downfall.
He cites Tennessee, and the over
throw of the Republican party there.
as an instance oflegimate fruits of a
prescriptive policy, and impeaches the
policy of sweeping uisirancnisement
and proscription, aa a leading inevit
ably to such disasters in Mississippi,
of the defeat of the Dent party, and
he regards it as a vindication of the
more liberal policy. . .
In conclusion, lie expresses nia con
fidence that aa passiona coola and
wrath abates, thousands .who have
cursed, will thank him for what he has
done, and dared in resistance to their
sanguinary impulses, and joyfully
rusts that tms win become at last tne
common faith, and even that of Gen.
Butler himself.
