Cannon, the Mormon delegate to Congress being tried for lascivious cohabitation, the jury fail ed to agree upon a verdict. The papers have to chronicle anoth er terrible disaster at sea. The EorJo line steamship Schiller, which sailed from New York on the 28th ult, has been wrecked and about 200 people lost. She had 14'J cabin pasdeiigeis and $300,000 iu gold.

Loyalty to the flag there fore, seems to be at a discount in these dnj-s of Democratic gains. There is homething signifioent tf not startl ing in the faet. It is barely possible that those who drew swords to divide the Union will remain constant to it in the National council, but is it not a dangerous experiment? Sentiments and convictions which will prompt a man to peril his life, aud all tbat he has, are not to bo shaken off in a day, and will probab ly influence him In the less duuger ous but more effective character of a statesman. The drift of our politics is toward another crimes ; it may not- be bloody, but it will be equally decisive of the fate of the Union. It is not from cen tralization that the danger is to be ex pected, but from the more alarming source of disintegration. Not that auy prompt bold stroke will be made to restore the -lost cause," but the train is being laid ; the iirst almost imperceptible approaches are to be dis cerned ; iniluences'are at work which, unchecked may involve usin a com mon ruin.

As the deceased had been a Catholic, a priest of that church waa called on to per form the funeral 'services. After the priest had commenced the services he learned that the deceased had recent ly joined the Odd Fellows, when he Btbpped the services ami refused to proceed further. Then the friends of the deceased becoming indignant, took the matter in hand, tore the cross from off the cpfftn and biiried the man accordlng'to Protestant rites. side issues that has made the mischief aud if not healed will soon raise issues which will again startle the world. AState'convention orsportsnen, it is announced by tho Omaha Sporting Club, will be held in Omaha on the 28th inst., at 10 o'clock a. m. Sports men in different localities are request ed to organize clubs aud are invited earnestly to send delegates to the State Convention. Eaoh club will be entitled to a representation of Ave del egates. The object of the convention is to form a State association for the purpose of seouring united aud friend ly action between sportsmen and oth er citizens throughout the State in the observance of the game aud lish laws, and he protection of game aud fish from wautou destruction. Somebody has sent as the first num ber of the Lompoo Record, bublished in Lorapoc, Santa Barbara county, California. It Is a neatly printed and well edited seven column paper. Lom poo oppears to have been founded by a temperance" colony on a body of land, owned by the colony-, of 47,000 aores. They advertise their lands to be worth from $15 to $60 per aore. The sale and manufacture of alcobolio liqu ors are forever prohibited within the colony. The following Item copied from the Record will give ous: readers an idea of what kind of a country that is: The potatoes Judge Heacock had planted on the Mesa land in January last are now qbout ready to market. The consitutional convention of Missouri convened In Jefferson City, on the 5th Inst. Waldo P. Johnson was chosen president of the conven tion. This Johnson was expelled from the U. S. Senate in 1862 for his treasonable ntytude toward the coun try, and afterwards served in the Confederate Senate. The reason why a man with suoh a record was chosen to preside over the Missouri Conven tion is because that body 69 mem bersare all Democrats but four. Johnson is the kind of men the De mocracy promote whenever and wherever they have tho power. A oyal man has no more chance among them than an angel of Heaven would have among the demons of hell. The Brooklyn Aagus says of Mr. Bowen's testimony : Mr. Bowen con tradicts Mr. Beeoher on two of the most vital points of the caee which, If right, must bo determined by sustain ing witnesses. If we remember cor rectly, Bcecher explained his grief and letters by his conviction that he had done Mr. Tiltou an injury by ad vising Mrs. Tilton to separate from him, and by his advico to Mr. Bowen, by which Mr. Tilton lost his editorial position, jnow iur. Jiowen swears that Mr. Tilton had been dismissed from his position prior to auy conver sation cm, tho subject with Mr. Beeoh er, aud that Mr. Beecher did not ad vise him to discbarge Mr. Tilton. Mr. Bowen also swears that the payment of $7,000 by him to Tilton had noth ing whatever to do with the settle ment of the scandal' difficulties, the defence set up the theory that Tilton wrung that money out of Bowen by threatening to publish the scandal. We had the pleasure of a call from Mr. H. C. Lett, of Brown. yiHe, thiu week. Mr. Lett is on his way to Co lumbus Ohio. If Brownville should be proud of anything, it should be that it can claim a man of such abili ties, as are to be found in Mr. Let, a3 a citizen. Neb. City News. And yet the Hon. Church Howe, Whom the 'News seems to take great comfort in championing, refused to support Mr. Lett last winter, when he was a candidate for the U. S. Sen ate at the same time Nels. Patrick was, was from Howo's own county, a more meritorious Democrat aud a more able man than Patrick. And that is not all ; Mr. Lett was not only of Howe's county and a Democrat, but he supported Mr. Howe, last fall for tho. Legislature in foot Mr. Howe at the time gave Mr. Lett the credit of electing him. Could the News, or the Granger, or tho State Journal, or any other Howe organ, or any other Howe organ, or Mr. Howe himself, give a fair reason why Mr. Howe gave his support to Nels. Patrick, a Democrat of Omaha, in stead of giving it to his neighbor and friend, Hon. H. C, Lett, a Democrat of Brownville? It is true, as we un derstand, that Mr. Patrick had more money at tliOjTichenor house than Mr. Lett had, but would that fuot' have any influence over Mr. Howe. These nuts our cotemporarieti. may crack at their leisure We advise the Grangera of Nemaha county to read carefully the letter in the Advertiser of last week, signed "Semper lidelts." Tho, writer very plainly states that Grangers ought uot to vote independently. Granger. The Granger very plainly utters a falsehood. The writer very plainly states directly the contrary of what the Granger says he does. The idea of "the writer," as any candid man can understand, thinks grangers should vole independent of the grunge, and that the use of any means within the grange to deprive its members of thatindependeuce or in fluence them politically, is contrary to the grange constitution and ritual. So everybody understands our corres pondent, but the fidgety grasshopper clerk. We also advise the grangers of Nemaha county to carefully read that letter. They know every word In it to be true. School commences in this district uext Monday. Dr. Fitzgerald ha9 quite a nice herd of young cattle. Dr. Jackson, of Mound City, Mo., paid us a flying visit last week. St. Deroin has three physicians, and still we are not u sickly people. The grasshoppers have destroyed several pieces of wheat in this vicinity. We believe in muscular Christi anity ; the kind that is not afraid of the dish pan or washtub. "Pete," are you the boy who wanted to get hie hat colored? Or was it "Abe," or "Noch ? " Wonder how that St. Deroin boy who is attending court at Omaha, likes the name "darling." The fruit prospect here is favora ble.

Mr. James Wolf and Miss Bald win, of Hillsdale, were united In the bands of matrimony May 2nd. Elder Hullett tied the bauds. Since the shower Sunday the farmers in this vicinity are pitching into the work of tilling mother earth as though they meant business. L.ota of fun to go to church, wait four hours for tho preacher who does uotoome, and then go home feeling as empty as a last-year's bird's nest. A gent from down the river care lessly lost his gold headed cane while paying this place a visit. The finder of the same will be liberally rewarded. Judge BJtter is farming. We think he intends to join the grange, as he is always siuglug "I want to be a granger, and with tho grangers, stand." ''Somebody's" dogs had better let Uncle Val's sheep alone, from the fact that he keeps a loaded gun for their especial benefit. It would be great blessing if he, or some one else; should kill every dog in town. A lady crossing on tho ferry here the other day became so exasperated at something as to declare that tho people of this town hadn't as much sense as a dead , what wo use a fine tooth comb to catch. We do uot intend to tell her name, but she is a doctor's wife. Well, it just beats anything! People have been getting married for many generations, and still they are not all married yet. Any person wishing to do anything in this line will find it to their interest, finan cially, to give Elder Hullett, just across the river from this place, a vis it, and he will attend to it promptly and expeditiously. Just think of it, men ; he makes the lady promise to love, honor, cherish, provide for and protect you through life. 31. E. CONTENTION.

Give us the names, neighbor Chief tain, so that all the people may know who buys and who sells votes. We do not believe you make the above as sertion without having the proof, for the benefit of all concerned ? We are tired of these general charges, and ask that they be sustained or correct ed. We ask this in the name of all honorable men. Nemaha Granger. Redemption of Counterfeit P.'otes. An exchange reports: The Secretary of- the Treasury, in a letter to Treasurer Spinner with re gard to file receipt of notes at the Treasurer's office from u National Bank in Nebraska, and for which re turns were at once made to said bank, say that subsequently it was ascer tained that in the pacage so received there was included one $500 note of the issue of 1869,. which was in fact a counterfeit, but had been redeemed by the remittance of other moneys for it. At the request of the cashier of the bauk, the Treasurer submitted for decision by competent authority whether the liability forsuch counter feit notes rests with the bank in ques tion or the Treasurer. The Secretary says : "It appears1 from your letter that the principle upon which tho bauk founds its claim to be relieved from liability it Is that the persou who pays what purports to be a genuine oblimi- tion giveu by him for the payment of mime,, uut wnicu is reany a rorgerv, cannot re cover the money paid, and' that he, is considered us addopting the paper when ho, with better oppor tunities to determine upon its genuine character than are possessed by any other person, pay the amount. Ad mitting that the courts have ruled to this effect as between private parties the United States ha.vo always taken the ground that Its agents iu redeem tho spuriouB issues could not bring the government with in the opera tion of this general rule, and inas much as all the courts before which the issue has been tried have adjudl oated In supportjof the position nsura ed by the government you can, with good reasons aud creat propriety, Ue--mand of the bank the refund of the cmount in question." The Bee proposes, as soon as it finds time and space at its disposal, to chew up Auditor Weston into exceed ingly fine spoon-victuals. The Bee eats up publio men on the same prin ciple that the chap ordered a second plate of soup at a reatruant. He found a sleeve button in the first dish, and ordered the second in the hone that it would contain the shirt to which the button belonged. The Bee found a 500 sleeve button in the postofhee nmr souivdish. aud t will find that shirt if it has to eat up every publio man in Nebraska. Lincoln Star.

PUBLIC SALS OP School Lands DOBSBY Self-Raking Reaper and Mom Combined, fov 1'S'5- IN bfTering the Dorsey Reaper for the coin ing harvest. I would call particular atten tion to some of the principal points of excel lence requisite in a rtrst-class machine, some of which the Dorsey possesses, and ate supe rior to all other Reapers made. The chief principal of merit I claim for the Self-Kake, and its great success as sucln Is In the raklngcenter having itslocnilon between tho driving: wheels, thereby allowing the rakes full sweep to bring iu the grain and rake the sheaf square, and in tho most per fect manner, for the hinder. No other ma chine, whoe rake center is on the bar. can deliver a perfect sheaf; tho sweep being too short, the sheaf. If well formed on the top, is Invariably tangled and in bad order under neath. This is certainly a point well worth considering In the purchase of a machine, as much labor is saved in binding good work. The draft of the Dorsey, owing to its pecu liar and perfect gearing, we consider mnrh lighter than the majority of Reapers. Oar large machine Is so very light that two small horses will cut from twelve to fourteen acres of grain per day with ease, and without changeof team an important matter to be considered, and one strongly commented on by those who have used the machine. Especial attention is given to the quality of material and workmanship employed In the construction of all machines wo build. Nothing but the best stock is used, and we always endeavor to combine strength with lightness and finish. All castings liable to break are made of malleable iron; the luas terwheels and principal boxing are babbited. Every machine is warranted to do as good work as can be done by any other reaper.

Anthony, editor of the Leavenworth Times, and William Embry, editor of the Appeal, same oity had a fight nbout 10 o'clock Mon day night. Anthony struck Embry with his hand when the latter fired three pistol shots at him, two of which took effect in Anthony's breast. There is no hope for his recovery. The dispatch says Embry and an ac complice of his has been seeking a quarrel with Anthony for weeks, de claring his intention of shooting him, ond tho murdered man avoided as much as he could, a collision. Em bry is denounced as a oold blooded us- sassin by those acquainted with the circumstances. The New York Sun is very severe upon Beeoher's lawyer, Tracy, for his treachery to Mr. Tilton. Mr. Beech er's partisaus, says the Sun, are severe In their condemnation of Mr. Moul ton for giving testimony against their hero, after having been his confiden tial friend and adviser, but what do they say of the far wor-rne breach of confidence committed by Counselor Tracy ? Mr. Moulton has ut leasttbis excuse, that he did not turn upou Mr. Beefier until Mr. Beecher at tacked him as a conspirator and a black-mailer; but Counselor Tracy lia3 sought Infamy, as it would ap pear, from no other motive than love and friendship for. his celebrated cli ent. He has made Mr. Beecher's quarrel his own, and, for the purpose of carrying him safely through it, has betroyed as sacred a trust as can be re posed by one man in another. It Is useless far him to allegs'tliat his course is approved by his associates, Messrs. Everts and Porter. Dragging them into the mire does not help him out of it. The Kentucky Democratic State Convention, on the 7th Inst. nominat ed Juo. C. Underwood, of Bowling Green, for Governor; Thomas Moss, of Paduch, for attorney-General; D. Howard Smith, Auditor, aud J. W. Tate, T.reasur.er. It is boasted by the Democratic press that the veuerable and nearly forgotten Cassius M. Clay, was pres ent at the Convention, and promised to canvass the State iu the interests of Demoeraoy. With such help we doubt not that Kentucky will go Dem ocratic by several majority. Court In Omaha has taken some of our citizens away for a short time. The Good Templar lodge in Peru is doing well let others come in and help us. . Col. Majors has his hair shingl ed. Looks like a new man so says everybody. Business in Peru is quite lively merchants have on their spring goods and are selling cheap. Town election is over and all is quiet. Tho students who voted are now considered out of danger. Quite a number of the teachers and students of the State Normal School went to Lincoln last week for recreation. Quite a number of youqg grass hoppers in Peru and vicinity, and are doing some dumage to the early crops and gardens. Mr. John Itinehart Is building a new house in Peru, and will soon ujovu io town nnu uecomo a perman ent citizen with us. Peru has a bran new Brass Band, and they practice nightly inside the corporation, we are in favor of extend ing the corporation. H. M.

Wayne, Indiana ha3 always gone Democratic before this year, but the recent city election was carried by tlie Rebublicans, by an overwhelming majority. The winter wheat of central Michi gan was badly killed by freezing out. Near Bellevilre, 111., recently, Sam uel Hamilton, 1G years old playfully put his face up to a window on the outside of the house. Win. Oates, 12 years old who was on the inside of the house, playfully pointed a shotgun at the face outside, as if-ho was going to shoot, this was repeated several times, when finally the gun was discharged iuto Hamilton's face killing him instantly. Stephen Pearl Andrews says he is the author of the article in Woodhull, & Claflin's Weekly which divulged the free-lovism existing between Beecher aud Mrs. Tilton. They got their news of the matter at the Wood hull house from Mrs. Stanton. turning out some fine brick and will goon have his kiln ready to burn. Success to him iu his now enterprise. Mr. JefTftolston, near Peru, died last Thursday morning after a long and painful illness, with disease of the heart. Funeral was preached by Rev. L. F. Britt, at the residence of of Mr. Harrison Neal. Dr. Brazeltou and wife, and his daughter Maggie are visiting In Peru. Tho Dr. is now living in Fairmont in this State, and has a good practice. He used to be one of the Peruvians. Success to him is our bes wish. Very exciting times when cars come in morning and evening. Large crowds gather at the depot ; some through curiosity and many looking for friends. More passengers get off and on the cars at Peru than any other station between Brownville and Lincoln. Dr. H.

He will be lfere again on Thursday, the 20th of May. Consultation free. Why does the editor of the Gran ger abk for names when he knows so much about it himself? We believe he might tell many things that would be of great interest to the people of'Nemaha county, if only he dar ed to do so. It was no secret u Lin coln, and our Granrcr'frlend knows it, that certain members were for sale and even boasted of it, as It is no so cret to us that men went tiicre poor, very poor, profanely poor, and came home with plenty of money. We do I not claim that Independents are the only ones who disgraced their con stituency, but fear were there are oth ers equally guilty ; and had we 'the power we:u wejiu t ery Conieiutiwiv one- of them to the peniteutlary, whether Republican, Democrat, Inde pendent, or any other kind. Hut a punishment never can bo meted out to the bribo-taker until our laws are so altered that the bribe-giver may tetlfiy without convicing himself. We have no retraction to make of anything that we have said concern ing "certain Independent members of the la9t Legislature," and if the Gran ger man can only wait till the proper time comes and the opportunity pre sents itself, we shall give tho names and facts to substantiate all the char ges we have made, and thus gratify his feigned curiosity. Wo especially desire, too, that our contemporary holds himself ready at a moments no tice to testify of those things which he has seen, for at such an hour as thinketh not, we may come. We be lieve the editor of the Granaer is too Intelligent observer of men and meas ures as to be utterly oblivious to all the infamous transactions led by these bribed apostates in our lust Legislo ture, unless his conscience be seared by corruption's contaminating touch or bliuded by personal zeal and parti san hate.

They are, therefore, now on their way to Cheyenne, and will soon be in Oma ha. The Governor will put forth his best efforts at the National Capitol to open up the Sioux country, and es pecially the Black Hills, to white set tlement.
