A bill has passed the U. 8. Senate
establishing the Territory of Huron,
(formerly Pembina) a portion of Da
kota. The fellow who said the country is
juet now cursed with nu uncertain
kind of patriots who are "invinclhle
in peace and invisible in war," said a
very good thing whether it was Bob.
Ingersoll or Ben. Hill who said it.
The next national House of Repre
sentatives is calculated to stand as fol
lows: Democrats, 147. Republicans,
143. The Democratic majority in the
present House is about 73 reduced
to 4 at the late eleotions. By the way,
how about that Democratic victory ?
If Hayes loses one vote In Oregon,
on account of the ineligibility of one
of the Electors, upon the same ac
count Tilden loses one In Missouri
and one In New Jersey, leaving
Hayes two votes ahead instead of one
"It's a poor rule that will not work
both ways."
In a recent sermon Henry Ward
Beecher Paid :
"When South Carolina plunged the
nation into war she established that
logic of events which now goading
her to denperation. She sowpd the
wind, and is reaping the whirlwind.
She says it is a wind from the North ;
I pay it is from above, from the seat of
justice.,,
The Supreme Court of Florida has
ordered the State Canvassing Board
to recanvats the vote according to the
face of the returns, and report the re
sult to the court. If this is done it
will not change the result regarding
Presidential Electors, as the face of
the returns show a majority for the
Hayes and Wheeler Electors.

Senator Hitchcock has introduced
a measure allowing Nebraska anoth
er Congressman on and after the 4th
of March 1877. It wi!l hardly pass
ihe House ihe parties will be too
nearly equally divided for the De
mocracy to do anything that would
add to the strength of the Republi
cans, regardless of the justice of the
matter.
A resolution was recently introduc
ed into the lower House of Congress
instructing the judiciarj' committee
to report an amendment to the nation
al constitution forbidding the pay
jnent of rebel war claims, which was
.adopted by a vote of 150 to C3. All
-the aid ex-rebels of the House voted
against the resolution, and all the Re
publicans voted for it.
The Democratic, or Wade Hamp
ton legislature, of South Carolina,
before it adjourned,. ejected that mur
derer and butcherer -of negroes, But
ler, to the United States Senate. He
i3 a representative Democrat, down
there, but willujot represent anybody
1n the U. S. Senate. The Senate will
not admit him it would not so dis
grace itself by the admission of sueha

"In South Carolina the Chamberlain
legislature adjourned sine die -on the
22nd inst. Afterward, on the game
day, the Hampton legislature did the
same tiling. This'ieaves two govern
ments. Of course, one of them is bo
gus and will eventually have to suc-
cumb. Both governments are exer
cising authority and tri'ing to run the
.machine. President Hayes and the
general government wfii undouhted-
Jy recogu ize the Chamberlain govem
.nient. "The Tilden bulldozers of Cincinnati
laet week met with a very humiliat
ing defeat. A leader among them
called a mass meeting, irrespective of
party, for the purpose of expressing
Indignation at the course of the Re
publican party, from a Democratic
standpoint. The sequence was that
the people, old soldiers, Republicans,
and all, "irrespective of party," did
meet promptly responded to the call
took matters into their own hands,
deposed the bulldozer who impudent
ly assumed the chairmanship of the
meeting, elected a chairman of their
own, and then proceeded to pass reso
lutions indorsing Hayes, expressing
telle in his air election, and declar
ing tliat he should be inaugurated if
proclaimed elected by lawful authori
ty. And the Democracy helplessly
retired, expressing their chagrin in
muttered curses.
It seems very probable that the Re
publican legislators will naturally
conclude that the wideuiug breach
cau only be healed by dropping Hitch
cock and selecting a representative re
publican for the position. Brings and

That's pretty good on the represent

right of secession all through the war;

September convention. How are you

We are not "In" with Mr. Briggs,
if the Republican represents him cor
rectly, and we do not doubt it, as it is
confirmatory of what we have had
good reagon to believe of that gentle
man's politics.
Judge Crounse Is simply a small
bidder for political promotion. He
would repudiate platforms, parties, or
give or do anything within his power
togratify his chronlcambition to attain
lofty positions for which nature nor
education basin any sense qualified
him. He has no force of either merit
or ability to recommend him for the
exalted position of a national Senator ;
and his only chanee is that a lucky
combination of circumstances, some
happy catch at party faults, or the
failure of the party to agree upon a
suitable person, will put him in the
Sjen.&e, as theydjd to elccttiim Judge i
and then Congressman. It has been
said that "it is better to'be born luchy
than rich." Crounse has been a lucky
cuss, and without experience, or any
thing to recommend hitu more than
locality and a big pair of whiskers,
lie entered the office-seekers' gam
bling shop, and at political chucker
luck took the big prizes from more
experienced and talented players ; and
he may win again the next throw.
Editor Nebraska Advei User.
With the full knowledge and expe
rience of two years ago of the drouth,
the grasshopper, the short crop of
corn or no corn at ull. nearlj one-half
the inhalitants in the country are
again burning corn for fuel.
It appears to be almost a crime, but
let us see whether it is or not. Fuel
of some kind they must have. Tim
ber they have not got, and it it will
not pay them to sell their corn to buy
it. Wood and coal are held so high by
those who have them, the farmer
finds he makes a saving to burn his
corn rather than exchange it for eith
er. By this we can see the great want
of timber. Not a man would burn
corn if he was not almost compelled
to do so. There was a few men among
us who appears to have been given
wisdom far above the common lot of
men. They looked ahead to coming
years and saw what was going to he
wanted more than anything else, and
they acted accordingly. They planted
timber uearly the first thing they
done on their farms, and are now re
warded with abundance of timber for
fire-wood, fencing, &c, from only
seven to nine years' planting. Anil
as they deserve all honor and credit
for the example they have set for oth
ers to follow, we ill name a few men
in our neighborhood who have fine
groves of timber enough to supply
nearly all their wants, namely: Gil
bert, Bron, Aldrich, Fredinburg,
and there are others, but not one man
in ten has one-Xourih the timber he
wants.
Let us think for n moment what
Senator Hitchcock's timber bill would
have done had it been in force when
this part of theState was firstsettling.
If we could have had 40 acres of such
timber on each section of land, as is
now to be seen on either of the above
named gentlemen's farms, it would
have added more to the beauty and
wealth of this part of theState than
many are willing to allow or give him
credit fur.
Senator Hitchcock has dono that
for this State, and added that to his
name which his enemies cau never
take from him. The timber that his
act has caused and will cause to be
planted, will continue to grow, and it
will warm the hearts and hands of
thousands of men, women and child
ren, long after his enemies have pass
ed to the land of forget fulness. If any
of our present legislators wish to add
that to their name aud fame that will
stay by them after they have passed
ten rods from the capitol, let them
honor the man with their votes, that
has done more for this State than any
other man who ever represented it in
Congress. Then Jet them imitate
him by passing a law compelling eve
ry man that owns land to plant a cer
tain amount of timber.
Cau any man give a good reason
why such a law should not be parsed ?
If they can we should like to hear it.
This coaxing people to plant timber
is found to be pure moonshine, and it
has about as much effect as that plan
et does to warm the shivering crowds
these nights. Some of our legislator
just before election, appeared to be
very anxious to have an opportunity
to serve the people, and we shall look
with considerable interest to see
whether practice and professions will
remain near and good neighbors.

Letter from John L. Colhapp.
Chicago, Dec. 22, 1S7G.
Editor Nebraska Advertiser:
Dear Sir: We arrived here safe
Thnrsdny night, after encountering
more delays than were promised by
voluble railroad men. We were on
the cars two nights and one day.
From Phelps to Kansas City in the
night; missed the connection, and
had to lay over all of Wednesday.
Going from there Wednesday even
ing, got to Louisiana, Mo., via Mexi
co, about day break, and all the day
light we got on the trip was from
there to Chicago.
The Kansas City bridge on the Mis
souri river and the bridge acros the
Mississippi at Louisiana, are both
beautiful structures and worth one's
while Jooklngat.
At Kansas City were quite a lot of
negroes going to Southern Kansas. I
conversed with several who had come
from Louisiana to save their lives
which had been threatened because
they had voted the Republican tick
et. One of them told me he had left
forty acres of land, a house aud crop
of cotton, and he and his family had
only what they could carry awav
with them. He had several children.
The other said he had decided rather
to lose his crop than his life. There
were in all about thirty men. women
and children, aud they said that many
others would have to leave or run the
risk of being killed. As pictured to
me by theBe negroes, the section of
country they left is entirely without
law or order.
The couutry passed oxer from Lou
isiana, Mo., here, is but little differ
ent from Nebiaka. only it is not so
picturesque as that composing Nema
ha and Richardson counties; but it
has what is more to the purpose than
beautiful scenery, In the large mounds
of earth and building's which are met
with frequently along the road where
coal and stone are rained. Such
things have a much more beneficial
effect than scenery.
Bloomington is a beautiful place, as
is Joliet. At the latter place we
stopped at the penitentiary and left
five persons who were so much
thought of by the State that they
were fastened together so as not to get
away. They will board there for
Fome time. I
I have thus far seen a3 much of
Chicago ass can be seen in one day,
which is not much, as I have only
learned the names of two streets; yet
I hope, afier restibg a spell, I shall
learn faster. It is a big place, and
just now is in poor condition for foot
passengers, the snow being about six
inches deep. I find that one can't get
anywhere by the street cars, and so I
take it afoot. I have read much of
the pleasures of house-hunting in a
large city, yet it takes actual experi
ence to make it enjoj-able. It is the
best thing for the "lysep and tysep"
muscles (see med. dec.) I think ever
invented.
I saw Mnj. Caffrey this evening.
He is looking himself in every re
spect, just as of old, a little rough, al
ways ready, and very hearty in his
every action. He is running the
Chicago Enterprise and five other
papers in good style, and accumulat
ing meat ou it, for he looks better
than in days of yore.
Yours truly, as ever,
J. L. Colttapp.

Prof. Church, of the State Univer
sity has been granted a year's leave
of absence to visit Europe Berlin,
we believe to prosecute his etudies
in history and antiquitarian literature
and a salary of Sl,200allowed him, for
the year. Chancellor Fairfieid, with
reference to the matter, and in defense
of this action of tho P-egeuts, which
gome of the papers are unfavorably
criticising, explains as follows, in the
State Journal, and vindicates the
Board of Regents, in our opinion.
He says :
1st. Prof. Church presented his re
quest accompanied with the state
ment that he would provide for the
teaching of his regular classes in the
University without expense to the
Regents; and upon that express con
dition the request was granted.
2d. As Prof. Church had been
teaching more or less in the sub-freshman
department of the University,
the Regents, in granting him leave of
absence reserved $S00 from his salary
in order to provide for these classes.
And this sum is amply suillcient to
meet that expense.
So that it will be seen that the Uni
versity made no donation whatever to
Prof. Church.
I did not say that it is a common
thing for institutions of learning to
grant such requests without condi
tion and without reservation, when
the have a full treasury from which
to draw. But the regents, feeling the
need of rigid economy, aud that in
these times they could not afford to
make donations, made none.
Prof. Church's classes will be pro
vided for according to the action of the
regents, without the expense of a dol
lar more than though he himself were
to be here. E. B. Fairficld,

the shooting. After some conversa
tion, he went off, saying that he
would return in an hour. Bonu went
to his own house, procured a rioubi'"-
barreled e-hot-gun, returned to Mr.
Hill's, and shot him through the door
of his own house, firing five
pistol balls through his body after he
fell from the first shot. After seeing
that his victim was down aud dead
he seized tho young lady, actually
dragging her over the dead body of
her father, and carried her by force
before a neighboring minister, de
manding to be married to her. The
girl refused, when Bond threatened
to kit! her. The minister's wife call
ed Bond's attention to the approach
of a posse in pursuit of him. At this
time some neighbors rode up to the
minister's house, when tho young
lady was takeu from her captor and
locked up in a room secure from any
possibility of his carrying out his
threat to kill her. Bond had been
riding all the night previous, and had
so jaded his horse that he required
another on which to make his escape.
This he accomplished by deliberately
shooting one of the horsemen, so
wounding him that he fell from his
horse, which he mounted and rode to

A Great National Work.
The Illustrated History of the Cen
tennial Exhibition, with a full des
cription of the Great Buildings and
all the objects of interest exhibited in
them. By James D. McCabe, author
of "The Centennial History of the
United States," Etc. Embellished
with over 300 fine engravings of build
ings and scenes in the Great Exhibi
tion. The National Publishing "Co. of
Philadelphia and St. Louis, have is
sued a handsome volume bearing the
above title. The intense interest ev
erywhere manifested in the great Ex
liibitation, and the desiro to obtain a
complete aud connected account of it,
will unquestionably cause this book
to have a very extensive sale.
This History of the Centennial Ex
hibition is not a dry list of articles ex
hibited. It is a superb volume of 874
pages, from the pen of one of the most
popular authors of the day. Mr. Mc
Cabe received the constant and 93'm
pathetic assistance of the Centennial
authorities, and enjoyed peculiar ad-
;r.seHeV0
through every department of the Ex
hibition, and the result of his labors
is a work abounding in brilliant des
cription of the great World's Fair. He
traces the history of the great enter
prise from its inception to its trium
phant closing liny. He then takes us
through every part of the Exhibition
grounds giving brilliant accounts of
every building and other feature of
interest within them. We are taken
through the Main Building, Machin
ery Hall, the Agricultural and Hor
ticultural Halls, the Art Gallerv, the
Government Bjildiug. aud all the
other structures, and our deepest at
tention is held all the time by the des
criptions of the rare and beautiful ob
jects contained in them.
The book is written with a vigor
and brilliancy which renders it a com
plete and life-like picture of the great
World's Fair, and which make it in
valuable to all classes of our people.
To those who have visited the Exhibi
tion it will be a pleasing souvenir of
their visit, aud enable them to recall
the maguilicentsceties they have wit
nessed. To those who could not make
the journey, the bonk is a necessity,
for ic will enable them to enjoy the
delights of a thorough acquaintance
with the great Exhibition in the
quietude of their own homes.
There is not another book in print
which gives one-fourth of the infor
mation contained in this work. It is
superbly illustrated, and the prico is
so low that all can aflord to secure a
copy. The book is sold by suusenp-
