POL.OCTK. Last week we varied from onrstadd- ardf rule in replying to a correspond ent of the scavenger vehicle across the way, that correspondent being v. A. .roiocJc. uur language was respectful and respectable. Polocli responded in language unbecoming a gentleman, being at once false and in decent. He says he does not like us because we do not keep good compa ny, and gives the names of three men "whdm he says we associate with two white and one colored either of whom is his superior. He says our associates drink beer and mean whis .key. We prefer such companions to that of men whose names are syno nymous with licentious intrigues, man's perfidy and woman's frailty. Polock gives evidence of a determ ination to "keep up with the funeral If he kills a hor3e," but as he has de scended to the role of a blackguard we will not cope with him. We can interest our readers better. He chal lenges us to publish his letter, which letter we declared would show the se cret of his animosity toward us. We herewith append it, as written, and then bid him good by': Brown ville, May 17th, 1S73. Messrs. Catfrey, Tlsdel and Stull: Gentz: lam told that there Is a petition in circulation asking that Sirs. Ebright be appointed postmas ter at this place, and that your names head the petition. There is no vacancy in this office, nor will not be for a long time, unless I am removed. If my commission was about to expire, I would not feel hard towards any person that prefer red another person for this position, jock out as meoniy way tnat a vacancy can occur in this office is by my re moval, and as a removal implies that I am unworthy to hold the office, I cannot love those who try to have me removed. I therefore appeal 'to your sense of justice in this case. I do not ask as a favor to me that you withdraw-this petition, if you think that I should be removed, go. ahead. Allow me, in the most nspectful manner, to say that I thiuk it is verjT cteekt In you to try to have me re moved. If either of you held an of fice, either in the JTational, State or City government. I would suffer mv right hand to be cut off before I would" sign a petition to have you, or any other person, removed, unless 3'ou had committed some great crime. Tisdel has known me for mnny years, and he ought to know that I do not tamely submit to injury, and you all ought to know that it will not pay to make an enemy of an active man Hke myself. I am perfectly easy as to the suc cess of your efforts, but I do not like to- be tormented every few months with efforts for my removal and was lnhopes that I would have peace. If ydu think you are rightgo ahead with your petition. I do not intend to get up a counter petition. I want you to satisfy yourselves, that you are bark ing up the wrong tree, and then per haps you will be satisfied. "It is a long lane that haR no turn," and as you are all of 3'ou, aspirants foroffice, perhaps I will be able to help you, when you least expect me to. You are the first men that I ever knew, that claimed to be smart men, that tried to remove an active, persevering man, to make room for a nobody. Please show this to any of your allies who are assisting you In this enter prise. Very respectfully, Wl A. PfiT.rimr- .. m A FEW WORDS TO W. A. P. Edftor Nebraska Advertiser. I see in the Brownville Democrat of the loth inst., a communication from W. A. Polock, also one from John H. Hindman, of Omaha. Be ing an "old settler," a farmer in Ne maha county, well acquainted in Brownville and Omaha, I beg leave to offer the following communication for your paper, if you think I will be safe ami in no way molested by the Cabal or Star Chamber atOmaha. I confess that it is with fear and trembling I send this to yon, for who can tell what may be done orwhatac- tion taken by that august body at Omaha, should the editor of the Bern.' ocrat again send to his master, the presiding elder of the "old settlers' bribery ring" of sixteen years ago, another copy of the Advertiser and also a potal card, calling attention, &c, to this. Oh ! shades of Crom well, ghosts of Robespier and Dante, save me, for I tremble when I think that I might be cast into a JLalce of justice and disinterestedness, without even a Savage to comfort me while being ground to atoms by a Miller, who gets his water power from the same Lake. Who would not "flee from the wrath to come," from Oma ha and "postal cards," and seek shel ter in Bome Church, or other outbuild ing which the(e) Church so strikiug ly resembles. Hindman says; "Itjfs with some hu miliation that I confess that such language maybe heard in Omaha, as the following: 'I was informed that no matter as to the facts iu the case, right or wrong, he (the Governor) will get fits; he will never get a jurj' that will give him a verdict j us old settleri have put our heads together and Judge Lake will beat him if the jury don't, and lie will skin the'Gov emor, &c.' " This is the way they talk In Omaha, yet Hindman says, "If the Governor fears to submit his case to such men, &c, the sooner he finds an excuse for withdrawing it the better." If this is not btoad enough I leave it for others to judge for themselves. Hindman snys: "Miller is a bold and outspoken man, and, as a matter of course, has made many enemies." This is consolation for you, Major, and if you publish a paper and are a "bold outspoken man," the same al lowance should be made for you as for xttiller, and I presume will be after you become an "old settler." Go into court and swear you have contributed to a bribery fund, and successfully bribed a legislature, and been guilty of all other acts of a corrupt nature, (see testimony of sundry witnesses in the Pumas-Herald libel suit,) then SE3TD IN THE SAMPLES. ' Those farmers who would aid the work of immigration to our State, should send in their facts as to crops, with samples of products, to the Land Department of the Burlington & Mis souri River R. R. Co. This company are not only doing more to advertise Nebraska than any or all other parties but they possess better facalties for displaying samples of Nebraska's pro ducts. They are making preparations to exhibit them at all the State Fairs of the East, this fall, and I suggest that Nebraska farmers who would aid in swelling the tide of immigration to our State now, send iu samples of their crops: wheat, barlay, oats, &c, to this company, with statements as to whether they homesteaded, pre empted or purchased ; the cost of their laud per acre J how long they have broken and under cultivation; the cost of their improvement ; how muoh wheat, barley, oats, corn, &c, they have realized to the acre. Let them also take pains to give the results of their observation in regard to the healthfulness of the climate, the ex cellence of the water, the depth and quality of the soil, the quality and va rieties of our native products, such as grasses, berries, plums, &c The B. & M. Co. will take all such facts- and spread- them broad-cast among the people all over the Eastern States and in foreign countries. But the facts and the samples should come right along, as they are wanted immdiate y. D. E. J. you can pass ; and if anyone doubt your purity, honesty and integrity, get on your muscle, send a "postal card" to Omaha. Tell them you are an "old settler," and I will guarantee that Saint Polock will make due al lowance for future communications. As I read the epistle-of W. A. Pol and reflect upon the past and again read his long article, I come to the conclusion that Polock and the editor of the Democrat are in the same condition that Mary, the espous ed wife of Joseph, was when they went up from Galilee to be taxed. Polock seems very sensitive and thinks it his duty to defend the old settleis." Some people are constant ly reminding you of the fact that they have lived a littlo longer than some one else in a particular locality ; that they possess that rare merit and noth ing else. Hence P'sstock and trade, "I-have beeu here longer than you." I came to Nebraska the first year af ter the territorial organization, and have always thought it was true worth and integrity that recommends and commends- the citizen, and not the. period of his residence. Polock says it is shameful to allude to "old settlers," to say that any of them are "jealous, suspicious, illiberal, drink whiskey, &c." Well, for my part, I have learned on the prairie that the "hit birds flutter, while the untouch ed birds pay but little attention to the shot." Polock seems very much distressed about the party I am sorry for" him. In the spring of '72 when we talk ed of making a move for the purpose of reorganizing the party, Polock was present and opposed calling the or ganization the "Grant Club," spoke and worked against it. No Grant for him then, uor since, except the post office. When a petition was circula ted'in behalf of Mrs. Ebright for the place, Polock became very angry and issued a proclamation to Judgo Stull and others denouncing all who signed it as working for a mere "thing." If that is not jealousy, illiberal and DIED. AtTnblc Rock, Nebraska, August 22nd. T3, Mary Mulr. relict of the late William Mulr. rnud daunliler of Daniel Brown, of Lanark, ccuuiuhi, in niooaiu year oi nerage. The subject of the above notice was born in Lanark, Scotland. A de scendant of the Browns, a name well known in church history. She was acquainted with her grandfather, who was born In A. D. 1604. She dis tinctly recollects the end of the French Revolution, the rise and fall of the 1st aud 2nd Napoleonic Dynas-- ties, the second war with Great Brit ain, and other leading events down to the late Ameiican Rebellion. At an early age she united with the peo ple of God, the old Scotch Presbyte rian Kirk. Her religion was termed by some "Blue Presby terianism." She thought it the blue of Heaven. Her Christianity was not of the demon atrative kind ; she relie I on Christ's atonement His blood to cleanse her from all sin rather than works, al though she showed her faith by her works. Always at the bed of sickness and death, ready to assist and sympa thize with the suffering aud sorrow ing; she had trouble of her own and knew how to sympathize. "Earth hath toil and weariness for the most untiring pinions; clouds, storms and darkues3," even for the most devoted christians; she found it too true in her own case, being an orphan at fif teen, only three days intervening be tween the deatj of her parents. In regard to her children, she could well adopt the language of Young : "Inr-atiate Archer, conld not one suffice. Thy sharis flow thrice, and thrlco ray peace wab.Nlain, And thrice ere thrice yon moon had filled her horn." In less than six weeks three lovely children were carried to the silent chambers of the dead, aged respect ively two, four aud sir j'ears. In 1S50 she was called upon by Provi dence to relinquish her youngest, aged ninefeeu, the child of her old age, her idol, just bursting in to womanhood ; this wa3 the sorest trial of her life; it seemed that it would bring down her gray hairs in sorrow to the grave. Five years later found her a widow. She was the last of her generation. The ashes of her kindred repose in Scotland, Italy, West Indies, New York and Pensyl rania, and now, after a sojourn of nearly four score and ten years, she has died in a strange land, yet com forted bT the presence of her eldest daughter. Her remains rest in Wal nut Grove Cemetery, at Brownville, Nebraska. More ties bound her to heaven than to earth ; six of her children are safely housed in that home oftuany mansions. Four only aro left behind. Truly a good old mother in Israel has gone to her final rest. One short week ago she was enjoying her usual health; to-day her mortal remains sleep beneath the si lent clods of the valley, awaiting -in hope the resurrection morn. Thou art pone to the grave; but we will not deplore the Though sorrow and darkness encompass the tomb; The Saviour hath passed through Its portals before thee. And the lamp of his love is thy guide thro' the gloom. Thou art cone to the grave; we no longer behold thee, Xor tread the rough paths of the world by But the wide arms of mercy arespread to In fold th"e; And t-Inners may Tiope," since the Saviour hath died. Thou art cone to the grave : and Us mansion lorsaicing. Perchance thy weak spirit In doubt lln cer'U Ions; But the sunshine of heaven beam'd bright on thy waking, Axd the?ound thou didbt hear was theser aphim's song. Thon art gone to the grave; but we will not deplore thep. SInca God was thy ransom, thy Guardian, and GuSdef He gave thee, he took thee, and he will restore thre. And death has no stint; since the Saviour hath ditu. Com. Brownville, Aug. 23. 167.1. Baker Sewiug Ma- Grover chines both shuttle and elastic, are sold by J. H. Dundas, at Sheridan. Messrs. C. & G.

Hopes are entertained, thaflhe camp meeting will bring down copi ous showers of rain, before it shall close. The Editor of theAnvERT-JSER, remarked to us several weeks ago that nearly all his news came from Sheri dan, as all the accidents happen in this vicinity. We sincerely hope we may not have much more of such news to write. Lost on tho Tecumseli and Brownville road near Sheridan, one small black pocket book containing several blank checks on first national bank Clarinda, Iowa, and nearly one hundred dollars in money. The find er will be suitably rewarded by leav ing it with the postmaster at Sheri dan. We regret to see the idea so prev alent among teachers and parents in this county, that some of their pupils and children are naturally dull, and consequently cannot learn like those that are "naturally bright." This idea is doing mora to retard the cause of education than a combination of all the "poor school houses," "ineffi cient teachers" short terms of school" "lack of funds," etc., with which the educational enterprise has to contend. On Sunday we went with Dr. Mi Grew to visit the wonn led in this vicinity. Mr. John Skillin had his shoulder badly strained, and his arm, shoulder, and side terribly bruised. Thanks to the skill of Drs. Matthews and McGrew, and the unremitting care of his wife and many friends, he is fast recovering, and will probably entirely recover the use of his arm. Geo. Ottens we found as comforta ble as could be expected, not near so badly hurt a was supposed at first, he has a severe cut in the muscle of the left arm, which is healing fast, a long and ugly cut or rather tear in his left leg. The Dr. thinks he will entirely recover in a short time. OFFICIAL. trlbuted and delivered, and1 to report the same to Consress in his annual report. Approved, March 3, 1S73. CHAP.
