THURSDAY, JUNE 9, 1870.
' " Bailroad Slectings "West.
From J. S. Hefzel, who rcturne
from Tecumseh Tuesday we learn that
the meeting at that place to meet the
officers of the Q. &:M.ind B. Ft. K. &
P. Railroads, and talk ove railroad
matters, was large and enthusiastic.
.Speeches were made by Messrs. Lett,
King, and Furnas, and several of the
citizens of that place; the enthusiasm
of the people showing plainly that
they know just where their interests
are, and they were determined to avail
themselves of the present opportuni
ty of aiding to the best of their abili
ty, the road which would do them the
most good, i. e.the Q,. & M. and 13.
Ft. K. & P. R. R.
A motion vrjuf put to the meeting
and carried that they request the
Commissioners of Johnson county to
call an election to vote upon the do
nation ef $100,000 to the above named
road, and the meeting agreed to raise
$1000 for the survey of the road
through Johnson county.
State Board of Immigration.
We have been permitted to peruse
letters of date May 21st, 22d and 23d,
from C. N. Kakstexs, Commissioner
of Foreign Immigration for the State
of Nebraska, located, for the present,
in New York. He is laboring with
great zeal and earnestness in the dis
charge of his duties. He greatly
needs statistics and details from dif
ferent portions of our State, particu
larly as to agricultural matters. We
have undertaken to furnish him with
such a3 we have and can obtain, and
will be glad to receive information
from any and all parts of the State.
Character of water power, supplies of
stone, timber, $sc, seems to be the
character of information most desirec'.
Mr Karstenes has already been, in
strumental in sending quite a number
of families to Nebraska. For the
benefit of those "Xorth of the Platte,
who are'disposed to complain, some
what, wo will state that, thus far, all
have been sent North of the Platte.
Statement of the Financial Condition
of Jfenialia County.
In'our last issue we completed the
publication of the statement of the
financial condition of this county.
To prepare this statement has requir
ed a vast amount of unremitting la
bor and research.!:rhe people of the
county are under many obligations to
our efficient County Clerk, James M.
HACKEB.'for the promptness and ac
curacy with which he has complied
with the order of the County Com
missioners in this respect. There is,
probably, nothing else in which the
people feel a greater interest than In
their financial matters. They want to
"see the books," and It is right they
should. In no other way can they all
be accommodated than by publica
tion. Such publication should be
made annually in every county, and
every paper in the State. "The people
-will pay no item of expense with
more pleasure.

The State SaubajLh. School.CoiiTcntion.
Of the M. E. Church for Nebraska,
met at Peru in this county, yesterday
afternoon, and will remain in session
three days. We are led to believe
that the attendance will be good, and
"the proceedings full of interest to the
good cause. The friends of the cause
from everywhere are invited.
Excursions on the U. P. R. R. are
now the order of the day. A party
of three hundred school marms arriv
ed in Omaha one day last week.
They were from California, and on a
visit east, to their former home.
Seven sleeping and three hotel cars
were provided for their accommoda
tions. Some recent sub-marine discoveries
made near the mouth of the Arkan
sas Tiver by John Coudeu, a noted
diving bell operator, warrauts the
conclusion that he has discovered the
remains of De Soto, the discoverer of
the Mississippi.
Our State Resources.
From the books of the auditor of
State, we have the following state
ment of the valuation of property in
the counties having the largest popu
lation :
Total amouut of property assessed
in Nebraska for the year 1870 is about
$53,000,000, an increase over last year
of about $11,000,000.
The following are the counties that
have the highest assessment:

It will be noticed that the increase

than any other in proportion to the
amount. The reason is that the road

Educational.
Editor Advertiser: Wo find, by visiting
some of our schools, that Improved methods
of Teaching are yet unknown, pupils will
read four times per day, each member read
ing a verse apiece, parot-likc, not knowing
the subject of the piece. Wc find young ty
ros climbing up and down tho ABC ladder,
with many a tumble as of old. AVo find
questions asked and answered verbatim,
and no explanations given aside from the
text-books used. We find slates and pencils
In the hands of the older pupils, but only
used for ciphering. Maps, charts, and Globes
arc entire strangers. Now and then we find
a set of school tablets. In short the school
Is "let to the lowest bidder."
But we find everywhere the interest in
creasing on the part of the patrons of the
schools, and we fully believe that If teachers
would come up to the work, and do their du
ty, there would be no trouble in getting the
hearty co-operation of the parents. We find
some teachers that are. In our candid opin
ion, not doing their duty; and wo wish, to
call their attention to a few facts. We want
them to do ono of two things: Either to re
formaud endeavor to govern aud teach, or
withdraw from the work ; for wo should dis
like to publish the present condition of their
schools.
We shall make mention of a few of these
items for correction : First of oil, a lack of
government generally; second, too much
whispering, and not enough work or study ;
third, too much formality, and not enough
life or annimation ; too much contradicting
both in class and to the teacher. This Is bad,
"I'll do so-and-so," and do It not, Is too 'fre
quently used. This will cause pupils to lose
confidence in your word.
Now, those who know themselves guilty of
any of the above named criticisms, will do
me a favor by an Immediate correction, as I
shall make my report in July, and I should
not like to report a failure on the part of any.
I want your hearty co-operation In raising
thestnndard of teachers' qualifications. We
have been requested by a number of school
ofiicers to select them a No. 1 teacher for the
fall term, and we aro now taking observa
tions in that direction. Good teachers are at
a premium, and Improved methods of tcach
lnaro welcomed. After all the world Is
moving, the light is spreading, and progres
sion is trampling over her foes. Wo have
some good teachers In our county, and have
the material to make more. All they want
Is experience a"nd the work. So let us work
together for the general good ot our young
State.
I trust these corrections will be made and
all will labor to Improve our common school
system.

The 2f ew Fnnding Bill Its Provision.
New York, June 4. All the "Wash
ington specials this morning seem to
agree in asserting that the new fuud
ing bill, as matured by the ways and
means committee, is eminently dis
tasteful to Secretary 13outwell; and
that the members generally express
the opinion that there will be no leg
islation on finances at this session.
Although the committee has been
very reticent concerning its provis
ions, it has been learned that the first
loan is for one thousand millions of
consolidated stock. Second, bonds are
plain four per cent, thirty yenr obli
gation, free from all national State or
municipal taxation,, except as imposed
on income. Third,, deposits of gold
in tne Treasury at tnree per cent, in
terest are authorized the proceeds of
such deposits to be used in the re
demption of the 5-20s, beginning
with the earliest issuos those of 1862.
This is the length and breadth of
the scheme.
Tho proposition of Boutwell for for
eign agencies is left out, and there is
not a word about it.
CoNSTAJfTixorLE, June 6. Yester
day, about one o'clock p. M., a fire
broke out, which spread with alarm
ing rapidit3T through the richest quar
ters of the city. Flames were dis
covered in an old building in the Pero,
on the north side of the golden horn.
A strong wind was blowing at the
time. The fire quickly communicated
with the adjoining buildiugs.0 The
efforts of firemen and citizens to stop
the progress of the flames were futile,
and in a few hours the residences of
the English, American and Portu
guese ambassadors, consulates, the
Naorni theatre, many churches and
mosques, thousands of houses and the
richest stores and shops in the city
were reduced to ashes. The losses of
life by falling walls was fearful. It is
estimated that at least thirty people
were killed or injured by this cause
alone. The loss is incalculable. The
fire at this hour (noon) is still burn
ing fiercely. The excitement of the
people beggars description.

New York, June 4. A cable dis
patch from Rome states that the Ecu
menical Council yesterday decided
that the dogma of infallibility be pro
claimed on the 39th inst., in honor of
the iirst of St. Peter.
Extensive preparations are being
made to celebrate the occasion, and it
is said that the display of pomp and
pageantry will surpass any demon
stration of the kind ever witnessed in
Europe.
Immediately after the promulga
tion of the dogma of infallibility, on
the 25th of Juno, the Ecumenical
Council will take a recess until the
15th of October.
A religious man of Boston" who has
been to Europe, and wants every
body to know it, commences his pub
lic prayers thus: "O, Lord, thou

An Ohio widow, alluding doubtless
to the death of her husband, said that
"there was nobody to take care of
herself and children bnt God, and he
was killed by the Marietta railroad."

Tills machine is constructed on a new principle ot
mechanism, possessing many rare and valuoble lm
provements, having been examined by the most
profbnnd experts, anil pronounced to be slmplltlty
and perfection combined-
The following are the principal objections urged
against sewing machines:
1. Excessive fatisue to the operator.
2. Liability to get out of order.
3. Expease, trouble, and loss or time In repairing.
4. Incapacity to sew every description or material.
5. Disagreeable noise while In operation.
The Empire Saving Machine is Exempt
from all these Objections.
It has a straight Needle, rernendlcnlar Action.
makes the Lock or Shuttle Stitch, which will neither
rip nor ravel, and ls alike on Doth slues : performs
perfect .sewing on every description of material,
with cotton, linen or silk thread, from the coarsest
to the finest number.
It Hems, Fells, Binds, Braids, Tucks,
Quilts, Plaits nnd Gathers.
As a Family Sewing Machine It has no superior.
Special attention is called to our new improved
