Butler, in his speech in thiVcity, a few evenings ago, stated that the Pomeroy bill gave a strip of land fifty miles wide in Ne braska, to build a Kansas railroad, and his right and left hand bowers,' tho editors of tho State Journal and Pawnee Tribune, keep reiterating this statement, and call Mr. Tipton all sorts of bad'hames because he was in favor of tliat bill. In fact Bro. Ed wards of tlio Tribune has become dan gerously rabid, considering that the thermometer haB rangedjin tho neigh borhood of 100 for the last month. I do not write this to defend jIr. Tipton, because we all know that he is fully able to take care of himself; and I havo no doubt but that when he comes home he will convince the people that ho was xight in that mat rix " ik --." -a?!-!.. '& '"bte)Kn-railrosiHhMa'ehccfl;at sm? il 1 .trTri.i t i -r""- '.?? nizi. 1 4m1 tfisal Ia- it Mliii Th il lauurnini. P-l (rJhftndred miles the present western terminus being several miles west of the Big Bluo river. It is pro posed to extend this road across to the Republican valley, then up that val ley to a suitable point to cross over to tho Platte valley, and connect with the Union Pacific somewhere in the neighborhood of tho one hundredth meridian. I have traveled along the Republi can from below the great bend in range fivo west, to range twenty-six west. Was with the surveyors that run the land off into townships from range seventeen to twenty-four inclusive, and from the Kansas line to the Platte river, and personally went over nearly every township line in that distance. A railroad built along this valley will enter Nebraska in range five west, and to coRiiect with the Union Pacific near the one hundredth meri dian will leave the Republican in range eighteen, and will strike the Platte valley near the line of 20 and 21, the nearest point between tho two rivers. The 100th meridian is in range twenty-three. Tako a map of Nebraska, aud you will see that from range five to rango seventeen, two-thirds of the distance that this road will be built in Ne braska, it will be from nothing to six miles from the Kansas line. A strip of land twenty-five miles wide on each sido of the road, will extend from nineteen to twenty-five miles into Kansas, which will be so much Kan sas land to build a railroad in Nebras ka. Tho Union Paciflo land grant reach es within forty miles of tho Kansas line, from range twenty-two to range sixteen ; nnd east of that the St. Jo seph western road along the Little Blue has a grant of land that reaches all along still nearer the Kansas line, in ranges fivo, six, seven and eight, reaching near, if not quite, to the Republican river. Where is this strip of Nebraska land, fifty miles wide, that the Governor and his champions talk and write so much about? The Union Pacific runs for many miles near the Colorado line, nnd I understand that nowhere does it enter that 'territory. Tens of thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands of acres of Colorado laud is included in theU. P..R..R. laud grant. Yet we would all laugh at the idea of calling that a swindle on the people of Colo rado ; and I firmly believe that very shortly pcoplo will laugh atD. B. and his satellites for calling the Pomeroy bill a swindle, so far as taking Ne braska lands .to build this road in Ne braska is concerned. Gov. Butler told us that this railroad will be comparatively worthless to the people of Nebraska. Tho 'towns that will bo built along this road will be in Nebraska. The property in these towns, and the railroad also, will pay taxes to" the State; and the counties in Nebraska. It will cause that beauti ful valley to be densely populated. It will protect our borders from the mer ciless savages. Place 2000 or 3Q0 men in that valley,, and Mr. Ogallallii and Mr. Cheyenno and Mr. Arrapahoe will trouble the neonle of Znnihn lo!J!l -lacrn ; i . , - Nebraska no more forever.

POLOClt, ;4oi Teachers and Friends of Edncntlon in iffcbraslca. Notice has boon given by (he Chair man of the Executive Committee, of the annual meeting of the State leaqliers'. Association, to bo held at Brownville,' on tho. 10th of August next. Arrangements have been made1 for the accommodation ofj all who may attend the, Association,, nnd for a re duction of one-half of tho usual fare to and from Brownville. The simple announcement of the meeting might seem sufficient. But the importance in advancing the in terests o.f Education will justify every effort which tends to secure a large attendance, and to make its benefits felt throughout the State. No system of Public Schools can be carried out succpssfiilly without the hearty co operation and united effort of all in terested in tho arcat work. For ob taining these, tbo Annual Associa tion of Teachers affords tho greatest facilities. The schools of hcStaten.ro in their infancy, The School law is new, and in some cases not fully understood. A largo amount of labor i3, thcrcforo. necessary to make our schools what they should bo. But in the counsel of many there is wisdom. I would, therefore, calj upon nil teachers and friends of education- in the Suite to make a special effort to attend tho Convention at Brownville cm tho 10th of August, to consult as to the best means of-advancing the interests of Education in Nebraska.

The enterprise originated with the citizens of Richardson countj, Nebraska, and Brown county, Kansas. Committees of influential citizens of Falls City and Hiawatha have visited St. Joseph ami negotiated with the St. Jo. & I). C. R. R.,. and obtained .from said company a definite propo sition, and upon that proposition elec tions have been called to vote precinct bonds to secure the immediate con struction of tho road. Said election will be held in this county in Falls City precinct on tho Sth day of next month. A permanent survey has been made, Ac, and the citizens of Brownville have riot lifted a finger ecn in encouragement of the enter prise, and havo not spoken a word until recently when the Brownville papers merely referred to the matter. These are the facts. We opine that the Tribune ia over sensitive about the matter of sham roads and Brownville politicians, and is giving itself unnecessary uneasi ness. . It is very kind of tho ZWouicto in form the people of our county that they are being "hoaxed" by Brownville-In this matter when they sup posed they had originated ami were prosecuting the enterprise themselves.

Falls City Journal. to o -aw ' We suggest to brother Edwards, of the Paivncc Tribune, . that tho decla ration contained in last week's issue, that Mr. Tipton had been denounced by every paper in the State except those of Brownville and Tecumseh, and that he had been repudiated by tho Republican party of Nebraska as a dishonest Senator, and too mean to be tolerated, is most extravagant, and that such language and sentiments are not calculated to promote either the good of the party or the Interests of the State. We regret to hear such Intemperate expressions coming from any source, and especially from a Re publican journal. It seems to us that Republicans might find profitable employment for all their energies, and might even be able to work in some "surplus vim" by directing their guns against their political enemies, rather than fomenting or encouraging war in their own camp: Falls City Jour nal. ,i Knocked ittiib Wrong Way. In a little village in New Jersey there once lived an old negro by tho name of Titus Scanck, commonly known as old Tite. Now, old Tito was very eccentric. It happened one day while he was sit dinner that he put into his month a piece of meat which proved rather toota-ugh for, his masticators, so he attempted to bolt it whole. But alas for human expectations, it stuck in his throat, "aficl try'as he would, he could neither got ifcup or down. His eyes begran to. roll in theirsockets, and he turned ttoiii black to blue. He thought his time had come, and it fs likely that another minuto would have finished him, had not Ann Ma ria, his wife, at that moment conceived a lucky idea. Rising from her seat, she went behind Tite, and drawing back her right mauler, she struck him a blow between the shoulders that would have felled an ox. Tho piece of meat iluw from old Tito's throat across the room, and fell into a swill pail which stood" there. The relieved darkey looked ruefully at the pail a favr moments, then turning, to Ann Maria, sputtered out: "My- Golly, Ann Maria, whyvou waste good meat like tint!? Why didn't you knock it do oder way?" Some peoplcarenevcr contented. After having all their limbs broken, ulu,r "oa smnsnen ami inetr Drams knocked out, they will actually 5oio t inw ana try to get further damages.
