H. Thomas, fourteen feet high, to be delivered in Washington in 3 years, the model of the eame to be submit ted to the committee in July next for its approval. The soldiers of Illinois held a re union at Sterling on the 20th ult. It was a grand success, but the proceed ings were marred by one sad acci dent. John A. Lyle, gunner, while firing a ealute, had both his arms torn from his body, and it Is feared he cannot survive. He leaves a wife and children in destitute circumstances, and large subscriptions have been ta ken up In their behalf. 3 The Chicago Inler-Occan says that It may be an interesting fact for Sena tor Carl Schurz to learn and for this reason mainly we state it in our col umnsthat of all the German bank ers in Chicago, there are only two who sympathize with him in his anx iety for a contraction of the currency. A larger proportion of the signatures to petitions forwarded to Washington in favor of more currency, are those of business men, artisans, and labor ers of the Missouri Senator's own na tionality. Tbey do not follow his lead in his crusade against national bank notes and greenbacks any more than they followed his lead in 1S72 against Grant. T-he Journal may, however, take its "Alfrd-David" on a stack of bible as high as its own pelf-conceit that the Granger has turned its back, dmie what may. upon-Demnenu-y and Re publicanism as presented in Congress and out of Congress. Nemaha Gran ger. The Granger man neglects to give his main reason for pretending to turn his back on the Democracy. A few weeks ago he told why he about faced. The reason he gave was, you recollect that it would pay better to be a gran er than a Democrat in other words the difference between 500 subscribers and 1,500 constrained him, and in a severe spell of emotional insanity he flopped. Senator Tipton on last Saturday evening, as per announcement by hix inch posters, harangued a small crowd, in McPherson Hall, composed principally ofold Bourbon Democrats. His talk was about Louisiana matter, with a brief reference to finance and a lame apology for his practice in sal ary grabbing. We have a brief re view of his remarks on Louisiana troubles written, "but it is .crowd ed "fit of our columns by more inter esting matter than an answer to Tip ton's balderdash about a subject that has no Interest for the people here. We will, however, occasional7 refer to the Senator's sought occasion to misrepresent and abuse Gen. Grant. We will occasionally stick a thorn in-i Our readers will recollect that some time near the last of January, the Potoffiee of this city was "robbed, and that the Post-Mater arrested a young man named McCreery, who had fallen under suspicion, for hav ing committed the crime, but was ac quitted upon examination. After the failure to convict McCreery, it was generally supposed that the matter as to who the guilty party was would remain a mystery. But such was not destined to be the cae. Detectives have for some time been working up ths case and finally their efforts have been crowned with success. Jno. B. Furay, the U. S. Mall De tective, arrived in :hi city lastThurs- day, visited the post-office, and was about town until Saturday. On Sat urday evening he went to the post- office and told Capt. Polock, the P. M., that he could within a few min utes put his hand on the man that burglarized and robbed the post-office. Mr. Polock, who, of course, was anx ious to find out the robber, with ea gerness asked. "Who Is it?" "Mr. J Polock," answered the detective, "I am sorry it is so, but suspicion from facts accumulated point unerringly to your son. Wm. T. Polock." The sur prisethe consternation of the fath er at this unexpected revelation wa3 great indeed, and can be belter imag ined than described. "Why is my son William accused of this crime? In what way doe3 suspicion point to him?'' "He has been spending money more freely than he did before the robbery he is known to have had very little or no money of consequence previous to that time. Now, or since, he has been flush." "What has he bought?" "A suit of clothes and a clock, for instance." "Ah, I can explain that," says the father, with a great hope springing up in his heart. "I bought those clothes, and also the clock, for Billy. Is that all?" 'o. He went away from here to other towns Nemaha City, Hum boldt, fec, and made purchases of con siderable amounts, and then told con tradictory stories about them." "Well," says Mr. P., still confident in the honesty of his boy, "I 3m sure Billy can satisfactorily explain ever3" thing. Are you going to arre-t him ?" "I am." And Mr. Furay went out of the office. After being gone for some time, he returned bringing Billy Polock with him. The door was then locked, there being present Post-Master Polock, Billy, the pri-oner. Lucy, his sister, (who assists her father in the office,) and the relentless detec tive, Furay. After some conversa tion upon the subject so intensely in teresting to the parties. Mr. P. turned to his son and asked, "Billy, are yuu guilty of the robbery?" Here, the father sayn, it was that be had his first -uspieion of his son's guilt; for in stead of a prompt denial he turned hi head and answered not a word. After a moment's reflection, Mr. P. looked at his boy and putting out his hand upon his shoulder said, in a voice indicative of the deepest feeling, "Billy, look your father in the eyes and tell him that .vou did not do thi thing with which you are charged." But the detected young man could not, did not do po. He. not being an old hardened criminal, was softened by his father's touching appeal, and then gave way to an impulse to tell the truth and suffer the consequences; so looking up he said in a subdued and sorrowful voice, "lather;! robbed the Post-Office." Mr. P. is a man of the most strict honesty and integrity, believes in prompt and vigorous enforcement of law against criminals, therefore it would be hard to portray the anguish that cut him to the heart when he heard his son avow that he was guil ty of a felony which would send him to the penitentiary. Would he not rather have seen Billy lying dead at his feet? The mighty sorrow which has come upon this old gentleman, from the oue indiscreet act of his sou, will be as enduring as life. Jno. B. Furay. the detective offi cer, while he is courageous, energetic, unrelenting in the discharge of dut-. and hunts down mail robbers with a shrewdness and certainty uncommon even among detectives, is, withal, a syu pathetic and kind hearted man, and never acts cruelly towards his prisoners nor places them under un necessary humiliations. Forthesake of young Polock's feelings, and his friends, the arrest was made so quiet ly that few, If any. outside of those immediately interested, knew of the event until next day. The officer left town with his prisoner about nine o'clock on the night of the arrest, to enable him to take the morning train for Omaha at Phelps. On Monday Polock was taken he f re the eourt at Omaha for prelimi menary trial. He there again con fessed hi. crime ond told all about It. He iutered the P.O through a win dow on the west side near the back end of the building. There being no safe in the P. O. the P M. was in habit of hiding letters containing money in a certain place, and Billy being posted, found tne registered let ter. He al&o took two packages of other letters, then left the P. O. and hid his illgotten treasure in a barn. Next morning he left his bed early, went and got his stolen letters, took them into his residence, and, while his wife yet slept, took from them the money they contained and then kindied a fire with them no one in this w rid being in the secret of his crime but himself. From the regis tered letter he got $170.00 and $3 00 from some .of the other letters. At Omaha when he met Mr. Bierbower, the Deputy Marshal who arrested Mc Creery. young Polock said, "I am ashamed to look at you after the part I took in the cruel and shameful ar rest of Mr. McCreery."

Too'much temperance for me and many cit.zens. Michael Graham, Liquor Dealer. We had no idea, up to the present time, that we were giving our read ers "too much temperance." But it seems that there has been too much for some people, and undoubtedly there has not been enpugh for others. We have sui'ed ourselves, however, in the matter and made no effort to accomplish the hopeless task of pleas ing everybody. We have written .-arcfcly a word of comment upon the temperance movements throughout the country, either indorsing or con demning. When we feel like it, and think it necessary, we will express ouropinians upon temperance mat ters, as we do upon other subjects, freely and fearlessly lishing an Independent newspaper advocating, especially, neither tem perance nor intemperance. We pub lish the news as we get it, unbiased and ungarbled, for the benefit of our readers, that they may know what is going on in the world around them Anybody with as much sense as a a spring cniCKen, knows mat as a faithful journalist, it is our duty to do so. In the publication of newspapers with which we have been connected during our life, so far, we have natur ally been Incliued to advocate righ t, truth and justice, as we understood them, whenever we had, anything to s'ay upon these subjects; and we shall continue this course in editing the Advertiser. The general tone and spirit of this paper on the temperance question will be such, that if its teach ings are followed, mothers will not weep over drunken sons. CO LVCfl- ESSIOXAl-. OBITUARY". Died, of Lung fever on the 21st of February 1S74 Miss Xancy F., eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thos Bur ress of Glen Rock precinct in Nema ha county. Her parents moved to this county with her in 1S56 when she was but two months old. Con sidering the deprivations of a frontier life she obtained a fair common school education. Up to the time of her re cent illness her prospect for useful ness and a long life of happy, social, intellectual and moral intercourse with her friends were as bright iu the anticipation as any of her acqua u tances. The grief of her parents, the family and her associates over her pre n.ature departue from this world of toil and management to a life beyond the grave is poignant and severe. There are many tendur and endearing associations wrapped up in a recoid of eighteen years, which should lead all who was intimate with her to a high er life even in thi world. Perhaps none s fully realize how much grand er, nobler and purer our aims and am bitions iu this world should be a-tho-e who are called upon to ex change it for (to them) the great un tried future toward, which we are all rapidly tending. A pmv christian life is a ublime conception in this re alizing world The unbounded satis faction of such a life to her who first enters into the presence of the iu tin He 6on and Father and the redeemed is infinately too sublime for conception until this mortal shall put on immor tality and until we shall stand on the hither shore of existence. A deeply sympathizing congregation attended the funeral services and performed the last sad rites for this beloved daughter and friend. J. . C. say that we have known Billy Polock .

The following is a li-t of names as report ed by the Inter-Ocean : A. Vander burgh, aged 35; Margaret Mortara, aged 15; Herman M.uider, aged 42; Matthias Grosen, aged 13; Margaret Kemp, married ; Berthold Ludis, aged 12: Bertha Foelker, aged 14; Chas. Peters, aged 15; William A. Scheid Ier. aged 8; Johnny Rhodes, aged 9; Frank Baker, aged 10; John Living, aged 9; Mary Wengler, aged 6. The House thus far has passed 115 Queen bills, and about llity resolutions can ing upon departments for informa tion. The Senate business makes a small showing compared with the House. The Senate Appropriation Committee will propose the abolition of the postal car system on railroads, and the repeal of the clause provid ing for the free delivery of letters, the latter on the ground that large sums are thus spent for the benefit of residents in a few citie3, whioh the people at large are taxed to pay for. It is estimated that such changes would well nigh cover the $7,000,000 estimated as deficiencies of the Postal Department for the ensuing year. The Houe Committee on Judiciary report that as all other property and rights of property of persons engaged in the late rebellion have by the gen eral acts of amnesty and laws of the United States, been exempted from confiscation, there can be no reason for now retaining on the statute books acta that were very properly enacted We are pub-f to prevent aid and comfort to the ene my of the United States during the war, but which now, by their imped iments to creditors of the United States In receiving their just dues, amount to confiscation thereof; and also such acts to the same eft ct, which were passed to hinder and pre vent disloyal persons who had not been removed because of their partic ipating in the rebellion, from making any claim against the government arising out of the rebelliou prior thereto, should be repealed. The committee report a bill repeal ing the joint resolution of March 2, 1867, prohibiting payment of debts due by the United States before the war, unless loyalty is proven, and re pealing the oath at present required of applicants for pensions. SCHURZ OX TEMPERANCE. In the Senate the bill came up for the appointment of commissioners on the subject of the alcoholic liquor traffic. Senator Schurz thought the passing of this bill would establish a prece dent of Congress interfering in mat ters belonging exclusively to the States. There were many other evils affecting society which need to be in quired into; for instauce, gambling was worse than intemperance. An other subject, the extravagance of the female sex in matters of dress, was a great evil, and had ruined many fam ilies. How many clerks had been in duced to rob their employees, or bank officers to become defaulters, in order to satisfy this love for dress. Indi gestion made a man sour aud unso ciable, and uonress might inquire into the cause of this, or go on with inquiries uutil it should be found out what effects consumption of hot soda had upon society and establish a bu reau of health and public morals. He did not desire to be understood as trifling with temperance principles. To a certain extent he wa3 a ternppr auce man, aud nothing was more dis gusting to him than a drunken man. unless it be a drunken woman. Noth ing could be more loathsome than a human being degrading hira.-elf to the level of a bea-t. He thought the movement of which this bill formed a pirt wn mi-directed znal, and the gentlemen favoring it were taking 'hold of the wron end of the subject. Human nature was so con-tituted that it needed relaxation and could not be put down. The surest remedy was not the. forcible suppression of any indulgence not morally wrong when Used moderately, but the sub stitution of better pleasures for the bad ones. He believed if social en joyments be introduced among the people, a wholesome social reform would be achieved, and a lasting ben efit would be conferred upon society. He doubted the propriety of the legis lation proposed by this bill, and would therefore vote against It. The bill was laid over without a vote. Mr. Bayard, from the Senate Fi nance Committee, reported a resolu tion directing the Secretary of the Treasury to inform the Senate what, if auy, additional legislation is re quired to prevent defalcations by of ficers receiving and disposing of Uni ted States revenue stampp and public money, and whether persons haviug the custody of such stamps and lin, giving as a reason that his busi- ings off and went out. xuaj. r. ga Jne.s was to be n. royalist. Kings, ' them notice that ne wouiu see ,- Emperors. Princes aud po- dress for the tiamage- u--iu. tentates would be invited, and the Republic would be expected to wel come them. He did not think they should be invited, ns it would not be consistent with our own self respect. Ano'her thing, a world'a fair here would be different from one in Eu rope. The exhibition would not have the same number of peopie as drawn by European exhibitions. We had but 40,000.000 people in this country, while the world's fairs of London. Paris or Vienna bad all of Europe to patronize. He did not think the country able to incur the expense of this exhibition. a t om FROM IIXCOrc. Lincoln. Neb., March 1. 1S74. Dear Advertiser: This city is in a whirl of excitement consequent upon the banding together of some one hundred and fifty ladies, who have enlisted for "eighteen months or during the uar," to raid upon the saloons and put down the liquor traf fic. It is indeed a novel sight to see some forty ladies marcbiug In a body, two by two, halting in front of sa loons and seeking admission. If ad mitted they enter and then indulge in singing, prayer and exhortation. If refused, they arrange themselves en masse at the door and for two hours block the entrance, sing, pray and lecture bystanders. The cohse quence has been that several obsti nate dealers have weakened and con cluded that they preferred admitting the ladies to hold services for an hour to having them besiege their doora for two hours. Nor are these raiding parties confined today hours, but at night as well. The number of sa loons in this city is nineteen, so that the visiting of all of them is no easy job, and can scarcely be performed in a single day. What the result will bo is beyond human ken, but it will doubtless have its influence In the ap proaching city election. If the tem perance element achieves a victory then license will be denied saloonists. if defeated the ladies may become discouraged, though they declare that in either event their efiorts will be unremitting. Scarcely a train passes the city from which some persons do not alight to feast their curiosity to see the cavalcade as it pases through the streets, and many who are not given to visiting saloons step in to await the advent of the ladies and see them as they kneel on saloon floors, there amongst the stench emitted by beer and whisky, and beer and whis ky drinker, offer up supplications for Divine influence to give them the vic tory over king Alcohol This band of women are now as well posted as any toper as to the secret entrances to saloons, and several of the saIoonits have been astonished to see their pla ces of buaiue-3 filled with women from back or rear doora. while they were standing as pickets at the front door, the only entrance with which tbey supposed the women were ac quainted. As a rule the ladies have been courteously trpated, save at nights, and it is probable that tbey will have to abandon their marauding expeditions alter night-fall. Yesterday I interviewed Dr. Con verse touching his intentions relative to the building of the Trunk R. R. He informed us that about the 10th inst. a meeting of the financial men whom he represents will be held at Columbus, Ohio, when he expects all preliminary arrangements will be made, and work soon thereafter com mence. A strong effort is beiugmade to secure its extension through Cass county and connection with the U. P. R. R. at Omaha, and it is believed the effort will be Riiceessful. C. The Lincoln Journal says there has been more '.'bustle" about the saloons during the past week, than ever be fore in the history of the city-. A friend wants to know if this was be cause of the visits of the ladies. Of corset is, and they have long stays at each place. A State Journal reporter Interroga ted a leading lady crusader "These saloons are licensed to sell liquor. How then do you expect to avoid an injunction if application is made for one to the courts ?" The lady divulg ed the following cunning plan : "Well, is is going to be a very diffi cult question to get at, or at least I have heard lawyers say so. Each sa loon keeper must make his own case, and to make the injunction effectual he muse name his defendants he wants to keep away, and as soon as he enjoins one-half a dozen, new re cruits will be sent, and so on until he has enjoined every woman who is willing to visit his saloon, and then we will take another saloon, and we think other women will then rally, so that in the end the lawyers will bleed the saloon keepers so badly that they cannot afford to keep up litigation." The Ohio State Grange held recent ly at Xenia, passed a resolution en dorsing the women's temperance movement and pledging it the sup port of the Grangers. AtLecsburg. Ind., all the saloons have been closed and the drug stores are careful to sell only on prescrip tions ; and at New Vienna the victo ry of the women has been complete. - At Shelbyville, Ind., the crusade has been a failure. The movement commenced January 23th, but all the saloons and wholesale houses remain open. At London, Ohio, there were eigh teen saloons, five of which have been closed, and there Is a fair prospect of closing the other thirteen soon. At New Lexington, Ohio, the movement has been in progress five weeks. Eight saloons, all the drug stores included, have closed. Five remain open. At Muncie, Indiana, the movement 'as been in progress rive days. Four saloons have closed, and four drug merchants have signed the druggists' pledge. Three saloons remain open. It Is said that on the assembling of i Parliament it will he immediately ' prorogued until the l:th of March, so that the members who have accepted office from Disraeli may have an op portunity to go before their constitu ents for reelection. It Is also said that the Queen's speech will not be ready before Par liament reassembles It is probable that William Robert Se3mour Fitz gerald will be appointed Under Sec retary for India. The Arch Duke ha3 received the appointment of Patronage Secretary oi the Treasury. A correspondent on the Gold Coast says that articles of peace have been signed by general Walsley and the King of Ashautee. A special from Calcutta says. 2S0.000 persons are fam ishing for want of food in the districts ofTripootand Boglipoor. Probabty in Bengal 500,000 (?) peron3 would perish. Sir Michael Hicks Beach has been oppointed Chief Secretary for Ireland, and Sir Henry Selwin Ibbetson Un der Secretary for Home Department The War Office has received no in formation that peace has been declar ed with the Ashantees. February 21. Sir Charles Adderley becomes President of the Board of Trade. Sir John Parkton has been elevated to the Peerage under the title of Bar on Hamilton. Sir Bartle Frere, at a meeting of the Royal Geographical Society es terday, stated that after a conference with Mr Kirk, he had come to the conclusion that the reported death of Dr. Livingstone was true. The Queen, at the recommendation of Gladstone, has granted a pension of 1,000 per annum to the children of DrLivIustone. London, February B. TbeGrfoieo f this evening says the announcement that Sir Charles Adderly is to become Prsident of the Board of Trade Is premature.

Cornell, upon which a decision was recently rendered by the Supreme Court, at Lincoln, was decided in favour of Cornell. OurTecumseh friends will remember how it used to offend them when we gave it as our opinion that Cornell would eventually beat them. When we give our legal opinion gratis, we speak " from the book." Ct has finally been positively ascer tained that Dr. Livingston the great I African explorer, is dead. quired to give bond with security for the proper execution of their duty. Passed. A bill granting $50 a month pen ion to the widows of Generals Can by and Meade and the mother of Gen. McPnerson, passed the House on the 27th ult. In the Senate Mr. Sumner offered a substitute for the House bill provid ing that the celebration of the one hundredth anniversary of American Independence shall be national ami uot international in ita character; that the arrangements shall be left in the hands of the original Commis sioner, and shall be carried out to con form to the provisions of the act of Congress, and that no money shall be appropriated from the national treas ury on account of the celebration. In advocating the adoption of this amendment Mr. Sumner said that one of the first votes of the commis sion went to show that the celebra tion should be national iu character and not international, as they provid ed that it should be open from the anniversary of the battle of Lexing ton to the anniversary of the battle of Yorktown. But a chancre came over the guiding spirits and they now wanted to have a world's f..ir. The two ideas were inconsistent and in harmonious. England would be in vited to p.rticipate, and in taking her seaton the Centennial bench would listen to the arraignment of George III and his tyrannical qualifications. Italj- would have representatives of her two sovereigns, Victor Emanuel and Piua IX. Germany wo'uld have a representative of their Emper or, who believed in right divine. Aus tria would be represented by her de scendant of Joseph I, who declined aa introduction to Benjamin Frank- TE.-flPERASCE . OTES. The Woman' Crusade Against Rum and Rum Sellers. In the Mis-souri'Legislntun Senator Beneeks introduced a bill entitled "An act to protect the peaceable citi zens from imposition by religious or temperance fanatics." The bill pro vides that any person who shall, without the consent of the owner or occupant of any building upon the premises of such occupant or owner. or on the sidewalk adjacent thereto. money should not, in nil cases, be re-l-,rai or ainK u s"cn a manner as to . ,. nueriere wuu cue business or quiet ude of such occupant by praying, -ingiiisr, swearing or preaching, shall be guilty of a miademeauor and be subject to a fiue of not Ies than five nor more than ninety dollars, for each offense, to be prosecuted before any Justice of the Peace or other magis trate of the proper county. At Sturgis, Michigan, the ladies have succeeded in closing every sa loon, and the saloou keepers and druggists have signed a contract to sell no more intoxicating liquors, as a beverage in that city. At Dayton, Ohio, the German news papers have i.-sued an infiamatory proclamation calling on all Germans capable of bearing arms to organize a regiment. It says the time seems to be approaching with giant strides when the laws, civil liberty, liberty of conscience, and the domestic hearth need protection. The report says the women do not scare worth a cent. The ladies at Lincoln, Neb., in their crusade, sometimes, as should be expected, meet with repulses. One night last week they, 19 of them, vis ited Maj. Kleutech's saloon, where they had been driven back on their pickets several times previously. Kleuthech was out when the ladies first went into his saloon, but return ed soon aud ordered all hands to leave as he wanted to close business for the uight; the gentlemen present went out, but the crusaders refused to move. After informing them of his intentions, and that they might pray on the sidewalk if they desired, he proceeded to turn out the lights, and went out locking the door after him the ladles still inside in the dark. In a short time, not relishing the situa tion, the women went to the back door, bursted it open and tore the cas- Twelve aaloou- in corporation limits, and two outside, have been closed. Not one icmaina open. At New Holland, Ohio, the move ment has been in progre about four weeks. Three saloons have closed, the drug store ha signed the drug gist' pledge. One saloon remains open though it is temporarily clo?ed. At Logau, Ohio, every saloon is closed. At Franklin, Ohio, the movement bejran January 21st. Five saloons are closed, and one still open. Gov. Alleuffof Ohio, recently said, and said truly, we think, that "Whis ky drinking cannot be abolished ny law. You may pas all the law.s you please on the subject, and yon will on ly sharpen the invention of the fel lows who sell. The vote of the pro hibitionists, some 10,000 iu this State might as well have been thrown into waste-basket." Ladles at Memphis, Teau., have nitified the rum sellets to dry up their shebangs, and that in case of a refus al they would be visited and prayed at. At Washington, D. C, the women, preliminary to their crusade, fcerved the following notice on stloon keep ers: "We earnestly entreat you, for the sake of your own spiritual wel fare, and for the preservation from ru in of our husbands and sous, that you abandon the immoral and wicked bu siness of selling intoxicating liquors.

The crusaders of Manhattan, Kan sas, before commencing operations, notified each saloon keeper as fol lows: "You are requested and en treated to abandon the sale of intoxi cating liquors, for your own welfare and that of humanity. It is degrad ing to yourself and spreads vice and poverty in your town. If not we will unite our prayers and visit you and every saloon iu a body, fervently praying and pleading uutil our object is attained."
