& THDLEGISLATURE,
s Our delegation In the Legislature
lias returned, that body having ad
journed on Friday night Iafet.
From them we learn that the Peni
tentiary, Military, Emigration and
Herd Law passed, and M ere approved
by the Governor.
. By the provision of. the Feniteutia
ry bill, three inspectors were elected,
on joint ballot, whose duties ar to
ell the penitentiary lands and appro
priate the funds, arising therefrom, to
the building of a penitentiary building
near Lincoln. They are alao autho
rized to provide for the Immediate
0
care of die State convicts.
' The Emigration bill provides for a
Board of Emigration. They are
to meet and appoint a commission,
to Tesiie in New York city, for the
the distribution of such printed
matter as the Board shall direct, and
to assist In forwarding emigrants to
the State.
The Herd law is the samn as that
passed by both Houses last year. The
same precincts, In Nemaha county.
are exempt from the operation of the
Military Management of Indian.
Affairs. .
We desire to ask those who have
been so clamorous for a traesferof the
Indian Bureau to the. War Depart
ment, how they like It aa far as they
have gone! " The late Picgan mas
sacre Is being thoroughly ventilated,
and is shown to have been a most das
tardly outrage a disgrace to the mili
tary and the country. In speaking of
it Gen. Sully writes to the Indian
Bureau expressing grave doubts as to
whether the bund surprised and mur
dered, had taken any part in the late
depredations."
"Lieutenant W. B. Pease, the agent
of the Blackfoot tribe, sends a full re
port to Commissioner Parker which
mits a worse liirht upon the matter
than the first;rcport through Vincent
Collyer. After giving the same fig
ures presented by that gentleman, he
proceeds:
" Out of two hundred and nineteen
I)elonging to Red Horn's baud, only
nfty-fcix survived. Among these are
nine young men who escaped during
the attack, and five who were away
hunting. The lives or eignteen women
and children, none of them more than
three years of age and many of them
much younger some of whom were
wounded, were spared by the sol
diers."" Thp affair is looked upon Jt the

W were pleae4 this week to re
celv a call from an old friend, and
early settler of Browuville, .Mr. Wm.
L. FERausox. We found 3Ir. F.
here when we came, nearly fifteen
3-ears ago. He entered the first tract
of land entered in this State, then
Territory; the piece of land now bound
by Mr. Hoadley, und known as
South Brownville. He has been all
over the Western Territories since
that time, and is now engaged In min
ing at Ellsworth, Nevada. He pre
sents us, for our geological cabinet,
exceedingly rich specimens of 6llver
quartz, and floar-spar, from American
Flag silver mines, Ellsworth, Nevada.
The specimens of silver quartz Is said
to be worth at the rate of $3,000 per
ton. Mr, F. is one of the owners of
tht se JWines, and is on his way to Chi-
meetings at present.
Mr. Revei.s, the colored Senator
from Mississippi, has already done
what no other Senator has heretofore
had the nerve to do ordered the door
keepers not to bring him cards during
the session hours. Any one who has
ever spent an hour in the Senate re
ception room, will know what a deal
of button-holing he will escape by
this course. It Is said further, that
he advocates the removal of all polit
ical disabilities from the people of his
State. Jeff. Davis included. There Is
patriotism for you, brilliant as the sun
at noon-day.
W. D. Jenkins is occupying the
;Cbair Editorial " of Mark J. Kelly's
"Little Blue" published at Jenkins'
Mills, in . Jefferson county. The
44 Little Blue " is one of the pluckiest,
spiciest, sharpest, keenest, "pungent-
est" little sheets in the country.
I take this first opportupty to com
ply with your request.
My decision in le case was arrived
at after a somewhat protracted con
sideration during the summer of 18C9.
The objectf that consideration wa
the adotiou of such regulations to
guid County Superintendents as
Uvouiu oesi advance tne interests or
education in the State, and would not
conflict with the plain letter of the
law. The decision at which I arrived
was this :
County Superintendents and School
Boards should treat as valid the cer
tificate issued to any person who 4,has
attended said institution twenty-two
weeks," and has been 41 examined In
the studies required by the Board in
6uch manner a3 may be (has been)
prescribed," according to the provi
sions ofSec.ll of "an act to locate, en
dow and establish a State Norma'
School,". approved June 20, 1S67. r
I abo decided that such certificate
must be subject to revocation by coun
ty Superintendents, under the provi
sion of See. 82 of 44 An Act To Estab
lish a System of Public Instruction
for the Stato of Nebraska." Approved
Feb. 1SG0. .-, ...
. The reasons which led to this deci
sion may be briefly stated thus :
1st, The prevailing custom in other
States.
2d. It will advance the interests of
the Normal School.
3d. It will induce teachers to make
special preparation for their work.
4th. The power of a State institu
tion to issue certificates which are
made valid In all counties, is not with
drawn by simply conferring similar
and less extensive power on a local
officer.
5th. The power of the Board of Ed
ucation to grant certificates is not in
consistent with the power vested in
the County Superintendents.
6th. The Interests of the Schools re
quire that all certificates be subject to
revocation. The Board of Education
can not keep a supervision of the Nor
mal School graduates lii the distant
counties.
7th. The spscific language of Sec.
82, of the School Law: 44 The County
Superintendent may revoke any
teacher's certificate for any reason
which would have justified the with
holding thereof," tc,

Prof. Geo. B. Moore, State Agent

a copy of a valuable little volume, en
titled "Lessons on Political Economy,
igned as a bnsi9 for instruction in
that science in Schools and Colleges,,"
by J. L. Ciiamplin, President of
Colby University. The science of Po
litical Economy is so practical and es
sential in all classes of society, that it
should be more generally studied, es
pecially in our schools. There is
nothing in it above the comprehen
sions of average scholars; indeed its
principles are simple our day seems
to be favorable to the introduction of
so important a study, and the book

The testimony also shows that there
has been about $4,000 drawn in excess
of the work done and material fur
nished on the contrac t for the erection
of the Asylum, but in the opinion of
lur. Hunt, one or your committee,
who is - no ; experienced builder
and contractor, who examined said
work, and material furnished, the
State can suffer in no material inter
est so far as the contract for
the Insane Asylum is concerned
. . We find that lots and lands bid ofif
at the public sales in 1S69, in the ag
gregatesum of near $150,000, yet re
main indebted to tne bidders to whom
they were struck off. That the money
due thereon has not been paid to the
commissioners.
wennu iurtner mat tne commis
sioners never promised to such pur
chasers anv time on said sales.
The testimony fully establishes that
the advertising for bids, and the let
ting of the contracts for both these
buildings, were conducted in a fair
and impartial manner; that there was
no favoritism shown to any one; that
no person whatever had any advan
tage over. others In bidding for the
contracts of either building, and that
the Commissioners, nor anv of them.
Ecceived any consideration whatever
forsftwarding the contracts to the par
ties who obtained them.
That the eommissioiersat the public
sale of lots and lands put forth all
proper means to further the interests
and advance the welfare of the btate,
by selling the lots and lands at the
best prices; that but few lots were
sold otherwise than at public sale, and
those were soul to rectify errors in
numbers of lots and mistakes made in
the hurry of bidding at the sales, and
in some instances to encourage the
interests of Lincoln, and thereby fur
ther the public benefit. We further
find from the testimony before us that
the commissioners had no individual
interest in the letting of contracts for
the erection of public buildings as in
the sale of lots and lands, other than
any citizen of . Lincoln and of the
State. . '
That the commissioners have pur
chased property ia LIncolh as other
individuals ami thereby showed their
faith in Lincoln by their works and
deeds, and owing to such purchase of
property by men in such high onices

It is rumored that the Quakers have
project for purchasing the Sac Reser
vation from the Government, remov
ing all the Indians on the Iowa Res
ervation, and forming a Quaker set
tlement upon the former lands. The
Quakers, we admit, are good, peace-
ble, thrifty people : but we cannot see
thejusticeof making the interests of
the entire country to bend to their
schemes. .A. treaty designed to fcive
us a railroad has been suppressed and
the Indians are to- be concentrated on
the very outskirts of our town, where
thev will be a curse to themselves and
the country, in order that the Quakers
may secure a choice body of l and for
a settlement of their own. We are
opposed to the monopoly of a large
body of land by any one race, clan or
creed whether it be Indians. Mor-

That largely owing to the efforts of
commij-sioners the State property in

much larger sums; double the amouu
contemplated by tne Legislature one
year ago. That the commissioners
found upon obtaining knowledge of
public buildings, that the appropria
lions maoe oy me iasi session oi tne
legislature were insufficient to erect
suitable buildings, and in view of the
fact that the State had realized a larger
sum out of .Lincoln lots than con tern

the public buildings.
That the State needed public build
ings equal to those contracted for, and
the State has and will realize sufficient
means out of the Lincoln lots ant
saline lands to erect such buildings.

credit to our young State.
