The convention holden at Lincoln on Wednesday and Thursday of last week, was one of the largest and the most harmonious body of men ever assembled together in the State. It may truly be said that no body of re- iigionisis ever couvenea in conven- lion whose sitting was more harmo- iiou5 man was tne gatnenng oi e- ., ., ... . .- i i -i-v. i it i - ' lereu to tne uignity anu manhood ol our young State by a sovereign corn- monwealth, and each and all felt that the affront should be hurled back and the So'.ons of Iowa taught that Xe-J hraskans knew their rights and would be fountl prompt in muiutaiuiug them. Tlie convention metat the appoint ed hour by the appointment of Judge Kinney, of Nebraska City, as chair man. After a short time spent in formalities, a committee on resolu tions was appointed before ami after which it was made plainly evident that tiie eyes of tho State representa tives present had centered on the ear ly completion of our Trunk railroad as the true and certain avenue to re lief and independence of and from the oppression and iurolence of our jeal ous neighbor. When tho Trunk rail road project was broached not a voice : was raised against it, but on the con trary all sounded in "accord and cho rus, and though the convention seemed to have been called in the in terest of Omaha, and the rights of Nebraska as represented in the bridge spanning the Missouri at Omaha, yet it may be said to have resolved itself Into a Trunk rail road convention, and we are fuliy persuaded that but a few weeks will elapse ere tangible ev idence will be given that this much to be desired avenue will be pushed for ward and that before snow fiies it will he co;npleted and the neigh of the iron horse will strike upon the ears of Jowans as it goes prancing up and down our river bank with passengers, product' and imports, loading to their utmost capacity, the cars at its heels. We have not tho space for the reso lutions iu full, as they were extreme ly -lengthy, but present the following epitome of them which fully express es them: We, tlie people of the State of Ne braska, in couvontion assembled, at the Capitol at Lincoln, on the 27th day of Maivh, A. D. 1S72, view with indignation the action of the Legisla ture of tlie State of Iowa. Then followed a first, second, third, and fourth preamble, in regard to the extraordinary action of tho Iowa Legislatuie. Appended to the preamble are the resolutions : r"First Stating tho whereabouts of the eastern terminus of the Union Pa cific. Second What had been given to the U. P. by the State and people. Third That such questions and controversies as that of tho U. P. ter minus belong to the courts, and not to legislative bodies. Fourth Iowa's action is an as sumption of power, and that under such an assumed right any State in the Union could prohibit common carriers from passing its boundary, etc. And further, a State could prohibit adjoining States from coming into its territory to take freight and passen gers out of it. Fifth Speak of the Iowa action as unprecedented and unconstitutional. Sixth The people of the State of Nebraska protest. Seventh Calls upon the Iowa Leg islature to repeal itsactioii, or rather, enactment. Eighth That in view of this hos tile legislation our capitalists and bus iness men take immediate measures for the construction and early com pletion of a railroad from the south ern to the northern boundary of this State ; that a committeo of represen tative men visit the city of St. Louis, nnd lay before Its Board of Trade this enterprise and procure, if possible, the assistance of the people of that orasKans. jvacn aim an appeareu to consider that an alfront had been of-'as city and the State of Missouri, and other capitalists and railroad corpora- tions, in aid of the construction of said .railroad. ISnith and Tenth Asking the U. P. Ii. H. to strii-llv fulfill its contracts , to Omaha, Douglas county, and fetate. The appointment of the committee to go to St. Louis was the subject of consideration. One from each of the fourteen counties represented was ap pointed on a committee to report names for a committee to St. Louis. The following names were reported and constitute said COMMITTEE TO ST. LOUIS. J. T. Hoile, Richardson county, Col. R. W. Furnas. Nemaha, S. S. Caldwell Douglas, W. E. Dillon, Otoe, Jno. Fitzgerald, Cass. D. Leach, Sarin-. K. Clark. Washington. C.

After w hich. on motion, it was A'csohcd, That the Committee leave Nebraska on the loth of April, and meet the Board of Trade of St. Louis on the 17th, at 12 o'clock M. On motion, the Secretary was re- riluSirriS'if.I.nde.ermin.uio,, toomk. It . . Nebraska to St. Louis, with a view to securing compliments of said Roads to St. Louis and return. Senator Tipton. The harangue of this gentleman in McPherson's Hall last week, address ed to "my neighbors," reminded one of an old curmudgeon, who was eter nally quarreling with his wife and walloping his children, and annoying his "neighbors," by retailing his ver sion of the difficulty. Now it is well known that Tip and the President fell out about the spoils, and the for mer, being chagrinned, must needs play the scold. The truth is, when Tipton ap proached Grant at tlie btart, it was as one arrogantly commanding rather than soliciting, and Gruut had too long commanded 4o(J,000 men to per mit himself to be commanded by owe. Tipton, in his address here, found many complaints which all could concur in. But these were not at tributable to Grant, but ran back to a time ante-dating the birth of Grant, and it would puzzle any one to tell ..t.-.i. n r.i .

S. Senate. But in any evcut, the charge cornea with a bad grace from one who received at the hands of the very people he was addressing, houses anl lands as presents. The Senator wound up his address here by saying that he would vote for the nominee of tlie Cincinnati Convention as against Grant or any man whom the I'hiludrfphia Conven tion icould nominate. Tlie old gent has indeed got very sore, and we feel pretty much in the same mood, that Geo. II. Pendenton did when address ing his seceding friends in Congress on the '2l"t day of January, 1S(J1, we "would signalize his departure by to- kens of love, would bid him farewell so tenderly that he would be forever touched by the recollection of it, and if, in the vicissitudes of a separate existence he should desire to come to gether with us again in the common government, (party) there shall be no pride to be humiliated, no wound from our hand to be healed." I2oiU I.Ike It! It is a noticable fact that those whom Grant whipped in '01 '05 have never and apparently, will never, for give him. The very mention of his name-makes them froth at ihemoutli. So, too, is the feeling against those who fought under Grant entertained by those who fought under Lee or other traitor. This is instanced by our neighbor, who shows signs of hy drophobia when Grants name is men tioned, and sets his smut machine at work when Col. Furnas says he fa vors the re-nomination and re-election of "Unconditional Surrender" Grant. As in the days of tho rebel lion Col. Furnas was found battling with the foremost champion of the starry banner, so now he is found, fighting with and under the same chiefta: As during the war our co temporary nattled against Grant and the government over which Grant now presides as executive, so now he is found defending Jeff Davis and other traitors, and defaming Gen. Grant, Col. Furnas and other patri ots. Let tho traitor wince. The Omaha City Election resulted In a Republican triumph, the Democ racy securing only the City Marshal and Police Judge. Trof.

Stewart, who were in the board the previous year, declined a re-election. Too much credit cannot be awarded to the retiring- members of the old board, as well as to the whole Direc tory for the energy and tact, with which they have managed the affairs of this com paii v. They have laitn- dl8cbaiged their duties as direc- - . ltors, ever watchful of the interest of the people, and fully alive to the im portance of pushing the railroad un der their charge to an early comple tion. They took hold of the enterprise under very adverse circumstances, and have by their untiring zeal plac ed the B., Ft. K. & P. R. R- on such a ba.sis as will insure its rapid con struction. These men have stood by the enterprise in its darkest hour with that is seldom witnessed, and now having succeeded in placing the con struction of tlie road in the compe tent and trustworthy hands of Smith, Dennison, Converse and associates, they retire to attend to their own pressing private business, crowned with the laurels of success. Heartily and truly can our people say to you, gentlemen, well done thou good and faithful servants. Of the new board, we have only to say, that they are known to our peo ple, either personally or by reputa tion, as thorough railroad men, in who-e energy, ability and integrity we have tlie utmost confidence.

JTXOir PA WXEE CITY. Paavnke Citt, Nci:. 1 March '2o, 1S72. Editor Advertiser It has been a long time since you have published any news from this place. Since when, some matters of interest have transpired. The A. & X. R. R., whose plans in reference to this portion of the country were not known to the public, have through its president Mr. Abell, obligated itself in "black and white," to construct the portion of the road running thro' Pawnee City westerly, within the time required to obtain the bonds vo ted last fall. This, of course is no news to you, but it is news that will bear telling more than once. Now that it is known to all and conceded by even those who were wont to croak against ail promises and pros- i pects of tho road above named, it j may be expected that "our folks" will frequently refer to the fact that the cars will, cortainly, be ready to run Into Pawnee City by the 4th of July, next. Besides this, a reliable company have offered, formally, to guarantee the building of a narrow gauge road north and south through this place j provided tiie county will give a rea sonable amount of County bonds. Thi- of course, will be done, as soon as the nature of surrounding circum stances will admit of our people ta king such a step. It is thought all the late sowing of Fall wheat is killed by the severity of the winter. The early sowing is said to be all right. There has recently been quite an excitement here over the "whisky question." An information was fil ed against the Martin Bro's. J. T. & i G. R. for selling whisky on the sly. They were acquitted, however, when it came to a trial, for want of evidence. But a fearful condition of morals among the boys and young men from ten to twenty years old was re vealed during the course of the in vestigation. It appears that for months past, little boys, even, of the ages above indicated, habitually car ry their bottle of whisky, of which they drink daily, and are frequently known to be drunk. This state of morals among the young, when it came to be known, took many of us by surprise, and of course, produced quite an excitement for a while, end ing in the inquiry, seriously and ear- nestly made, "whether a lieeused sa loon" would not contribute more to a better staie of morals than to have whisky furnished and sold continu ously "on the sly,' with no other re straint than tho ovasion of the law, which can be done fis easily iu selling to the child as to the grown. It has been said that this is the only town of any note in the State, without a Sa loon, and also, the only town where the little boys are so notoriously im moral. I speak of these things, though hu miliating, because ventilation of such heinous sins in some degree of a public nature is the only source from which wo may hope for a remedy. Jay Rard. Nebraska State Normal School. It must be the testimony of all, who were present at the closing exercises of the last term of this school, that it is in a very flourishing condition, and that it is fortunate iu the selection of its present Faculty. The President, Dr. Williams, is a thorough educator, energetic and a worker. He lays a bold hand on the best methods of teaching, and uses them with a de termination to prove them ; he is fearless in removing useless systems of mental training. It is quite an in tellectual treat to visit his studio, where his literary taste is so plainly visible. It is quite a pleasure, too, to visit his interesting family and form the acquaintance of his wife, who is a dignified, refined lady. The presence of Prof. Martin seems indispeiisible to the school. The length of time he has been connected with it has secured to him a reputa tion of a very high order, as an edu cator. Miss Elliott, the Preceptress, has force of character, and uses it in arousing the slumbering faculties of the children, and set them to work in earnest; the examination of her classes showed thorough work. Miss Dickerman, the sedate lady who has the supervision of the Model School, in examining her pupils on "Meth ods," evinced great clearness of per ception and vigor in executing. It was testimony that the theory of a Model School, which was the subject of a very excellent, and elegant essay read by her before the Institute held in London a few weeks ago; was car ried into practice by her, and worked well. Pupils under her instruction must be laying a firm foundation for a magnificent educational superstruc ture. Prof. Straight, the instructor in Natural Sciences, is a rare character ; his mind has gone back into the past, it ha reached out into the future, it has grasped in the present, and has observed the demands of the soul, and discovered the sources of satisfying all its wants. His beautiful and truthful teaching in Mental Philoso phy, is that the germs of all the fac ulties lie in tho soul, awaiting educa tional forces to call them out into all the majesty of their nature. These forces are found in all the diversified phenonema of nature; and this phe nomena is grouped and classified so as to show the beauty, order and grandeur of nature's laws, and work ings. Through these steps the soul reaches God; and thero the spirit, transfigured in the divinity of the Christ-nature, in ecstatic reverence bows in the temples of nature, and from the shrine of the soul, worships in the beauty of holiness, offering up praise and thanksgiviug continual. The young ladies who constituted his clas3 in mental phiosophy, Miss Emma Lewes and Frankie Hull, are bright examples of his system of teaching ; they are building the foun dation for a very lofty character ; they are rearing around them towers of strength, which may enable them to successfully resist the baneful Influ ences of vain philosophy and false doctrine, taught by unilluminaied, undeveloped minds ; they are weav ing about them regal garments by which they may be recognized as those who are preparing for the beau tiful mansions in the higher life. The process through whudi to pass in order to attain a higher culture, writ ten out by them in such scientific or der, shows them to be both philoso phers and metaphysicians, and will be la-ting honors to them, and be of inestimable value to them as they launch out into practical life. The performance of tho society of the Normal department, was a very fair literary effort. The colloquy was very amusing, well acted, and a hap py burlesque on the manner common schools were conducted in former days. The singing which was a part of the exercises, was by the singing class of Mis.s Lottie Martin, that deli cate child of song, and it was evident she not only has a soul of music, but has the ability to diffuse it so as to arouse this faculty in others. It was plain they had received careful and correct training. Thoe students who wish to cultivate Unit beautiful facul ty of song are fortunate in the oppor tunity of receiving instruction from Miss Martin. The Cantata was superb theacting remarkably good for the time given for preparation the singing grand. Prof. Martin was the inspiration of the set ne. It was almost equally as gratifying to look at the Prof, in his enthusiasm, as at tlie performers. He seemed a breath of song from the music of Mount Olympa wafted to earth, and materialized so as to be recognized by tiie senses. I did not hear Miss Keney's class in instrumen tal music, but presume she performed her part equally as well us the rest. Taking the exercises tout ensemble, they were very interesting, and gave much promise for the future. The school does not claim to have taken but few steps up the eminence to which they hope to attain, and it is sincerely desired the hope muy be re alized ; that it may have encourage ment from every quarter, and favor ing influences from every one, and the blessing of heaven upon it.
