What part of the human corporlety Is the "capture," now? But good enough for him, a horse thief. James Henderson, near Cartervllle, III., was shot and killed while In hia own house, by three men unknown, last week. The following day a man named Jason Ditmore, near Hender son's, was murdered, while plowing, by three men supposed to be the same that murdered Henderson. Gov. Butler recently made a tem perance speech in Lincoln, during which he took occasion to pitch into the Blade. The next day the Blade took revenge by hunting up the co3t of the Butler impeachment trial, and its figures showing the total cost are $15,501.03, and then triumphantly asks the tax-payera of the State the pertinent question, "How high Is that?" The large packing house of Toby fc Boot, Chicago was entirely destroyed by fire on the 22nd inst., together with a large quantity of bulk meats and rendered lard.

There Is a terrible state of afiairs In Texas, aloDg the Rio Grande, on ac count of Mexican marauders and cat tle thieves, and many old settler? have been compelled to abandon their ranches for fear of being murdered or or robbed. These Mexican thieves are bolder and cross into Texas more numerously than ever before and la terally strip the people of all their possessions in stock. At one place, Los Concha, they were three days crossing their stolen cattle, and Mex icans have frequently shot across the RioGrande, whloh is a narrow stream, at Americans on the opposite shore. The Mexicans threaten to burn and rob the town of Corpus-Ghisti nnlesa some Mexican prisoners- held there are released, and the citizens -of tbe place have organized for safety. As sistance from the military baa been earnestly asked, and Gen. Meagher responded with one company of caval ry. Those Greasers ought to be sum marily dealt with.

A bill has passed the Senate for the relief of the people in Alabama along the Tombigbee, who were made des titute by the overflow of that stream. An amendatory tariff bill is being prepared by the Senate Committee of Ways and Means. It relates to about twenty articles. The Senate and House have passed a resolution to adjourn on the 22nd prox. The civil rights bill Is called up ev ery day and discussed, and some amendments are made, but a final vote has not yet been had. Since the above was put in type the civil rights bill passed the Senate by the following vote: Yeas Messrs. Alcorn, Allison, Boutwell, Buckingham, Conkling, Edmunds, Flanigan, Frelinghuysen, Hamlin, Harvey, Howe, Ingalls, Mitchell, Morrill of Vermont, Ogies by, Patterson, Pease, Pratt, Stewart, Wadleigh. Washburn, West, Win dom and Wright 29. Nays Messrs. Bogy. Boremau, Carpenter, Cooper, Davis, Hager, Hamilton of Maryland, Johnston, Kelly, Lewis, McCreery, Merrimon, Norwood, Ransom, Saulsbury and Stockton 16. Messrs. Morton, Cameron, Hitch cock, Chandler, Ferry of Michigan. Sherman and Logan, who would have voted for the bill, were paired with Messrs. Stevenson, Thurman, Tipton, Bayard, Dennis, Goldthwaite, and Gordon, who would have voted asrainst it. Whon fVia on nrknnnamftn f titqc mafic by the chairman that the bill had passed, ten or twelve colored men in the gallery, where they had been all night, applauded. Mr. Conkling moved that when the Senate adjourn, it be to meet on Monday next. Agreed to. Mr. Conover, of Florida, said when the vote was taken on the bill he was in tbe restaurant down stairs. Hid he been present he would have voted for It. Mr. Sumner was the father of the bill originally, but since his death it has bad many amendments and been greatly modified. m i m The Half-way House on the Bel levuej'oad was entered by burglar on Saturday night. The plunder taken away consisted of three gallons of whisky, two gallons of wine, two hundred and fifty cigars, a small quantity of fine cut and plug tobacco and tbe loose change that bad been left over night in the money drawer. This is theseennd time that the house ha3 been broken into within six months. Omaha Republican Captain McGee, of our ferry boat, thinks he saw the fellow referred to above, on Monday. A hard looking customer came down the river iu a dugout and stopped awhile at the landing at this place. He had with him a couple of kegs supposed to contain liquor, a quantity of plug tobacco, several boxes of cigars, and .a quantity of fine cuttied up in a hand kerchief. The goods the Half-way House lost and those possessed by tbe man In the canoe were very prob ably "the same. The dug-out man was barefooted and having his pants rolled above his ankles, the Capt. noticed a curious looking crease or In dentation entirely around both ankles, and from what the Capt. knew about garters he conoluded those marks were too low down to have been made by that kind of goods, but were ex actly where the gyves of a felon would be worn. He asked the dugout fel low what made those markes around his ankles, and was answered that he had been Bhot there while in the ar my. The Captain thought it curious that a man could be shot clear around the leg, and in both legs just alike. But the man with the whisky and tobacco went on down the river In his canoe. The cards of invitations to Nellie Grant's weddlngcontained the words, "The President nnd Mrs. Grant re quest the pleasure of your company at the marriage of their Daughter, at Executive Mansion, on Tuesday, May 21, at 11 a. m." 9" "Two hundred acre1- of land were recently sold In Florida at five cents an acre." And -the purchasers can raise their own mosquitoes and alligators -without the least trouble. Nellie Grant was married by a-mlh ister of the Methodist Episcopal Chureh. STATE IfEWS.

Somebody writes from Brownville to the Lincoln Blade as follows : Dear Major : The Blade Is read here by your numerous old Brown ville friends with great interest. Your staunch Republicanism, and the bold manner in which you handle questions in which the people are in terested, secure for you the admira tion of even those who often difler with you. We are having a most lovely spring here, it is somewhat backward, yet I upon the whole, everything Is as far advanced as usual and out of tbe way of frost. The farmers ot this county, always ahead in agricultural matters, are ahead of themselves this year. An unusual breadth of land is under tillage the present season and crops never looked better. Fall wheat has come through the winter in splendid condition. Spring wheat looks fine, much of the corn i3 up; some baa been once plowed. This county has always stood in the front rank pom ologically. This season the fruit prospects are better than ever before. There are many fine orchards In this county. The most extensive how ever is that of Gov. Furnas. I find in his orchard apples, pears, plums, cherries, appricots, grapes, and small fruit without eud. If nothing hap en3 hereafter, there will be eight to ten thousand bushels of fruit for mar ket from this orchard this season. The Gov. is here for a fevr days, look ing after his farm and orchard. The people here have nearly ex hausted their patience in relation to the Railroad enterprises, they hava always complied with any demand made of them. Have two or three roads in process of construction, but none running, giving us an outlet. There will be a fparful reckoning with somebody, if Brownville has not a railroad connection and outlet, this season, mark that! Business in Brownville is fair bet ter than last vear. Several of our i T'lfliTf-ns trhn lmvo lioon nff on n four j lookirJE for 5ome liveiler piace retun 'satisfied, findlntr that other points too, are dull. While Brownville may not improve 83 rapidly as Eome other points, what she has done has been steady, healthy and reliuble. The Advertiser, your old paper, flourishes under the management of Fairbrother & Hacker. "Wash" is presiding over the editorial depart ment with commendable tact and aDinty. lie is a liooa Templar man. and is facintr the music." He looks better than I have seen him for years. Success will attend him. Brownville. The St. Louis Republican Wash ington correspondent writes up a long but readable story about the wedding of Nellie Grant, and complains that no newspaper men were ndmitted to witness the marriage ceremonies. That was perfectly right, and the snubbing of uewspaper correspond ents, by decent people will continue to be right eo long as they prostitute themselves to writingsuch slanderous, ungentlemanly, unreliable reports about everybody of character especi ally ladies, who may appear to be in their way to the accomplishment of any desirable end for which they have been hired to contribute. News paper men, the same as other people, are entitled to be respetcd only when they act respectable. When Poland was a kingdom, some of its laws and customs were odd enough. When any person was con victed of having slandered another, he was obliged, In open court, to pros trate himself on tbe ground, lying be tween the legs of tbe party he had un justly accused, and there to confess in a loud voice, that in publishing or asserting what he bad asserted against him he had lied like a dog. Ex change. Such a law In this country would scarcely remedy the evil as the slan dered are generally woman. The punishment would rather argument It, we think, if we know this people. The Kansas & Nebraska Stage Co., say the Beatrioe Express, are fitting up stages to run from Lowell up the Republican Valley to Orleans in Har lan county. Four horse coaches will run between Lowell and Republican Citj. Tho Express says, "The people of tho Republican Valley may depend on having their staging done up by the K. & N. in first class style." We, also can vouch for that. Gen. Butler gave 500 to the desti tute of the Massachusetts Mill river disaster. Gen. Ben. Butler is reported to be again dangerously ill. SOOI. 3XATTE31S.

The house Is located in Hillsdale, hav- j ing been built some six years ago at a cost of $1,700. It is a good, substan tial two-story frame building, 32x26; the upper room being used for a Ma sonic Lodge. The room used for school purposes is admirably arrang ed, well lighted and easily ventillated. As the teacher called out her class of abecedarians, she remarked that she had no charts or even a blnek-board that was in r. condition to use. I have no doubt, if asked, but what the board would willingly furnish some of these help?. Miss Barnes has at tended both the Xorraal and Brown ville schools. Besides tbe advantages attained at these schools she possesses considerable natural ability for teach ing; self-possessed, always speaking pleasantly to her scholars, yet firmly and decidrdly. I have observed that a majority of those that are teaching at present have spent a portion of their time at either the Normal or Brownville school. I would advise all that ex pect to follow teaching any length of time to avail themselues of the ad vantages afforded by these schools. j Nemaha County has every reason to be proud of her edurational advanta ges; bavinr the State Normal school within her borders, which compares favorably with like institutions of the east, and the Brownville high school which I believe is conceded to be the best I will say a3 good, for fear some might think I am boasting as there is in the State. I have noticed that several districts are without schools in consequence of the board failing to haHd in the levy to Clerk in proper time, which is before the firat Mon day in June. D. Y. Pearson, County Sup't. THE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL. The civil rights bill passed the Sen ate on the 23d lust. It reads as fol lows: Section 1.

Chicago, May 22. The ciruit court of Sangamon connt3w yesterday de cided that it had jurisdiction over railroad cases sought to be taken to the federal court of the United States. This course involves a direct conflict of jurisdiction between the State and United States court?. The writ of certiorari issued by the latter was im perative upon the state court and it? refusal to obey the writ is therefore a clear case of contempt. HEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
