TG? fSES5 ' "- THE ADVERTISER THURSDAY, JA"N. 4, 1877. i - The latest European news Is that Turfccyhas concluded to fight rather than acquiesce in all the demands of -Russia. And AustrIa4spreporing to help Turkey. It is said that Mr. Tilden's health is rapidly failing, and It ia thought that should the Democracy he count ed in, Mr. Hendricks will he the Pres ident before a-great while. The Plattsrnouth Herald says that twenty-three years ago the 22d of De cember, Senator Dodge, of Iowa in troduced a bill to organize the Terri tory of Nebraska. The probability Is that a Democrat will succeed John A. Logan as U. S. Senator from Illinois. The Demo crats and Independents combined have a small majority in the legisla ture over the Republicans. One of the most terrible railrond ao Cideuts occurred at Ashtabula, Ohio, fin the evening of the 29th ult. An Iron bridge over the Ashtabula river, Jell, precipitating eleven cars, six of -which were passenger cars crowded with people, distance of 75 feet. About 200 people were aboard, 75 of whom, it Ia estimated, were killed being -crushed, burned nrflrowned. The Ice gave way beueath the fallen bridge and cars, the wreck took fire Immedi ately after, the weather was cold and .a heavy wind and snow storm pre vailed to add misery and terror to the scene. The elements combined in all their fury in the destruction of hu mau life. A Singular case was a few days ago decided by the Supreme court of Iowa It was a suit by a wife to recover dam ages from a saloon keeper for selling liquor to her husband. The court de cided that the verdict of $1,625 against the saloon keeper is invalid be caupe one of the jurors took a glass at liquor during the progress of the trial. The court consider them selves bound to so decide because of decisions heretofore made. JSr .change. .Public opinion is so moulded -on temperance reform, that the time is not far in the future when laws will beenaoted which will warrant judges ia Inhibiting jurors from dram driuk ing while a part of the court. We think that would be a step forward in true reform. Men would rather be tried, or have their law cases tried, by entirely sober jurors, thaa when any of them are in auy degree under the infiuenco of alcoholic liquor. John M. Palmer, Lyman Trumbull, William Bigler, Geo. B. Smith, Geo. W. Juljan and P. H. Watson, are men whose statements will command the confidence of the couutry, and they declare, after a careful study of the returns, thatan honest counteven under the laws of Louisiana, cannot .defeat the Tilden electors in that state. .Are the American people prepared to -accept the results of a fraudulent count and a disputed election ? Phil adelphia Times. The statements of such men as W. T. Kelly, John Sherman, ex-Gov. Noyes, and many other high minded and honorable gentlemen, are to say the least of it, just as worthy of cre dence as are the statements of old sorehead renegades from the Republi can party named in the Demoaratic list. And the former have the acts of sworn officers to confirm their state ments as well as the evidence of hun dreds of witnesses from the bulldozed -districts. Are the American people prepared to sot a3lde the verdict of the ireturnlng board, with such eviden ces before them? Will they beoomo intimidated by the threats of war aiow indulged In by many Democrats, .andee old Tilden bulldozed into the Presidential chair regardless of law and evidence ? We have an idea that the Republican party doesn't intimi dato worth a cent, and if they find Hayes has 185 electoral votes ho will .be inaugurated, and Democratic at tempts to scare somebody will be treat ed with the supremest and ooolest contempt. The Beatrice Express of last week ha9 a good article favoring a Senatori al caucus. We have over and over again expressed our opinion in har mony with this view not iu the in terest of -any candidage tut solely for the party's good. We declare, as we Lave on other occasions, that we do not know whether a caucus would elect Mr. Hitchcock or defeat him. nor do we think we know. While we say oandidly that we are friendly to ward his re-eleotlon, we also say that party success, at this time especially, is with us, and should be with every Republicanis above Hitchcook or any other man. In this light should eve ry Republican, of whatever faction, view the matter. The next United States Senate will contain the smallest majority, and on ly a bare majority, eveu if Nebraska and every other State that elects a Senator do their whole duty, of any since the Republicans have been in power; and if Nebpaskiuand a few other Republican States, by foolish, unpatriotic dissensions and quarrels, and personal animosities, lose their Senators, the Senate will pass, as has he House, Into the hands of the De mocracy. This, it Is feared, will be the upshot of this-suioldal business. What mat tars.lt then. In that case, whether our President be Hayes or Tilden ? For the sake of harmony -and a smoothly running governmental machinery, it had better be Tilden. To-day the Re publican party in Nebraska is con tending wltbvall its power, and with united voice, that Hayes is elected and must be inaugurated, and each one vies with his neighbor in loud declarations of patriotism and loyal fey and in making dismal pictures of tulcondltion of the country, the ne groes, the Republicans of the ball-dozed-Soutb, etc., yet many of these me patriots, pen the Senatorial Sertoli, is mooted, boldly declare they Ua&ttr aDmpcrat.would be eleoted to the Senate than Hitch cock ; and some of them have predict-ed-theiposaibillty of the election of a Democrat, in case the other faction does not desist from exercising its right-of advocating the claims and vo ting for'the man of their choice. This is entirely Inconsistent with their professions on the Presidential question. Were they consistent they would determine at once swear "by the eternal," or by anything else that would make the oath stick, that in no case shall a Democrat be elected to the U. S. Senatefrom-thls State. NEWS KECOED. STATE. A man In Furnas county has ship ped ten tons of butter within the last six months, -bought in that county. There ia no better State than Nebras ka for dairy -business. About ten thousand acres of home stead land were "proved up" in Hall county in the j'earl876. A few days ago in Richard son county a prairie fire was started by a paFsrng train of cars, and before the fire could be stopped all of J. J. Hart's outbuild ings, fences, farm implements, aud 2,000 bushels of grain were burned. Mr. Simmons also lost a fine hedge, a lot of hay, straw, fences, etc. W. C. Campell, lost his residence and all of its contents by fire, and Ephriam Barnes met a similar loss. The Beatrice Exjircss says, "There have been (shipped from Beatrice dur ing the fall of 1870, and to the present date, about -300 car loads of wheat, besides a large quantity of flour from two to three car loads per week' This indioatts the grain business of that flourishing little city. The Beatrice Express records' a case of "body-snatching" grave-robbing at Blue Springs. "Mrs.EIizabeth Som mers wife of Levi Somraere, died near Blue Springs on the 15th of Decem ber aud was buried on the Thursday following. Some four days ago Mr. S., who came to our county in. Octo ber last from Illinois, made arrange ments to have the body of his deceas- -ed wife taken back to their old home near Springfield. On opening the grave, however, it was discovered that the corpse had been stolen. The vil lains had cut and torn the grave cloth es from the body and left them in the coffin, and left many other marks of thelrjaacrllegious violence and ttend ish depravity." The following from the Fairbury Gazette is the truth : "Taking a gen eral view ofthe Senatorial field, we are satisfied -that Hitchcock's chances are improving, and this Is to a great extent owing to the development of the weak points in the line of attack that has been conducted solely with a view to defeating him by using every instrumentality both fair and unfiair. We do not believe that he is the best man In the field, neither is Ire worst ; but we do believe that he is fully as honest and compent as those who are arrayed against him, and can say that he has conduoted his canvass with a dignity and consistency that has done more than words could do to refute the charges against him. The Brownville Advertiser favors a new capitol building at Lincoln, because it wants the cipital to remain there permanently. Of course. That's just what Lincoln wants its for, too! But we doubt if the people want to pay so much for that whistle Kene saw Times. Well, we like to see people consist entthat's all. A convention of their renresentatives said we must have a legislature of 114 when our house was made to accommodate 52, aud these constitution makers knew it of course. Now. as they did not make a legislature- to fit the house, they must make n house to fit the legislature. We don't care whether It Is a "new capitol building" or the old one remodlcd, but suppose the former would be the cheapest in the long run. The Bloomington Guard is calling attention to a proposed Distirct Fair for the Republican Valley. It says, "It was proposed at the late State Fair, that the Republican Valley counties hold.a district fair nextyear, and as Franklin county obtained the highest pjize, was In a measure enti tled to a fair consideration, and that a preliminary meetings be held at Bloomington, Jia the fore part of Jan uary 1S77." The Editorial Association of the State will meet in Lincoln, January 4th, in the parlors of the Connnercial Hotel. MISCELLANEOUS. Ex-Senator Nye, of Nevada, is dead. He had been insane for tho last year or two. In a glove fight in Revere Hall, Boston, on the 28th ult., between Mc Dermott and Davidson, the latter re ceived injuries from which he died in the hall. The report that Adams' Express Co. lost $1,000,000 by the recent fire on the Erie railroad is oflloially con tradicted. The New York Herald warns Hay es that the people will expect him to carry out his own policy. There's an opinion as is an opinion, showing how the Herald feels on its well days. Members of the Senatorial commit tee in South Carolina, say that evi dence already taken far more than sustains all that has been alleged by republicans concerning frauds com mitted by demoorats, and thatlnstead of Hayes' majority being J.WO or thereabouts, the republican national and state tickets have on the face of the vote 2,500 to 3,000 majority in the state. New Haven, Deo. 23. A heavy shipment was made to-day of muni tions of war for the Turkish govern ment. The value of the cargo is near ly $1,500,000. On the 26th, at Ft. Scott. Frank Terree fatally stabbed Ezra Reynolds. ThaW-theway an-old feud was set tled.. The oonvent of the Sisters of Provi dence at Quebeo was destroyed by fire on the 2Gth ult., and 14 of the inmates perished 4n the-flames- The Brooklyn Board of Education has decided by a majority of-23 that it is neither expedient nor practicable to introduce the study of German in the schools that of city. One of the arguments of the minority is this : "One of the dangers that threaten the AmericantpeQplo in the not distant future, if unprovided for, Ib the devel opment of a large and influential class that'is'kept-sdparateand distinct in habits of thought and life from the rest of the community." Near Boston recently, three men, John Riely, Jas. Reagan and Thos. Barnes, were covered under a-landslide and'killed. At Boston on the 28th ult., Jas. A. Coe convicted of forgery, committed suicide in prision. They have aiirst class scandal in Indianapollp. A prominent citizen named Child and his neice, a Mrs. Robinson, eloped together. Both married folks. Child was Superin tendent of a Sabbath School and a "pillar in the church." The centennial of the battle of Tren ton was celebrated Tuesday of last week at Trenton by a sham battle. The Hessians wereagain defeated and compelled to surrender. The dead were carried into the neighboring sa-loons-aud restored to consciousness. A man at Boonville, Mo. last week rained Henry Schreck was crushed to death under his wagon which he was driving aud turned over upon him. It may bo pertinent to add that in his pocket was found a half bottle of whisky. The firm of Chipman, Stone & Co. of New York and Yokohama Japan, has failed. Liabilities about $500,000. At Decatur, 111. on the 28th six men in the jail overpowered the keeper and escaped. Here is a -fair sample of Democratic blundering, or worse, 'from the Gal veston Ifews : "The Republican par ty is on the wane, if figures prove anything. The uetlos3 of the organ ization in the Northern States for this year over the vote of 1868 is 233,278, for 1876 over 1872 it is 521,429."" The truth is that the Republican gain in the Northern States from 1872-to 1876 is 422,395. Counting from 1S6S to 1876, the gain is over 900,000. The New Orleans Times argues that the South cannot afford to commit self-destruction when there Is no oc casion or suicide, as in the present political crisis. It holds that because the Northern Democrats are in the dumps is no reason why the South should be particularly miserable. It wants the south to quit sentimental izing and turn its attention to cotton, tobacco.and rice. Col. McLaughlin, the champion wrestler of Detroit, was recently de feated in a contest in Boston, by James Owens, of Fairfield, Vt. Ow ens is a farmer and weighs sixty pounds less than McLaughlin. The backers of McLaughlin say the rea son of his being thrown was a strain ed ankle which he received in New York and was not yet wel?r On the 26th ult., there was a terri ble oil explosion and conflagration at Oil City, Pa. The boiler house of the American Transfer Company's sta tion took fire, followed by an explo sion of the boiler, which was thrown against an iron tank containing about 15,000 barrels of oil, bursting the tank and setting it on fire. The total loss on oils is about" 35,000 bar rels, and five iron tanks two owned by Mawhenny Bro9., two owned by Cochrane, and one by the American Transfer Company There were alsb five Erie Railway boiler cars burned. Loss estimated at $200,000, partially insured. The American Transfer Company will commence rebuilding at once. A Moscow paper says that Russia is a State of 80,000,000 peasants, who can not lose anything by wan even if their villages should be destroyed, for they do not own auythiug. Rev. Wm. Monck was a Methodist minister of Yorkshire, until lately, when he turned Spiritualist. The authorities were very prompt in his case, ana now tie is serving out a three-month term, at hard labor, in jail, tinder the vagrancy act. At Davenport last week an officer shot and killed a despefate oharacter named Pat Murphy, who resisted ar rest on charge of robbery. Near New Providence 111., on the 25th ult., George Standafer was thrown from a horse and killed. Recently at Washington City while Miss Claxton was playing the Two Orphans there was a panio occasioned in the densely crowded hall, by a man having a fit. For a while the audience thought the building was-en fire and in the rush several people" were injured. Adam Dieffenbach, residing at St. Jacobs, ill., near St. Louis, was way laid murdered and robbed- a few days ago while returning from St. Louis where he bad been with a wagon load of marketing.

At Springfield, Mo., on Christmas day, Chas-. Lelghton killed two men. He stabbed one and in the evening at a ball, shot a young man named Ma son. Washington, Jan. l.Joha W. Harrington arrived here from Columb ia 8. C, to-day bringing the Democrat ic electoral vote of thatState whioh he delivered to the Preidential pro tern, of the Senate. Mr. Baxter,. President of that college, requested 8ecrelary of State Hoyne to afllx the seal of the State to the certificates, but he decln ed. and therefore they are not thus officially indorsed. lYhat Ben. HillmWeorga Sayfe nbont the Situation. The following from Ben. Hill is the most sensible of anything wc have seen emanating from a Democratic source. -Mr.Bill says: The. political situation was never bo critical as now. -Our -constitutional system is on a magazine of powder and teu tuousana toots, ana some that are not fools, are striking matches all round it. None but cool'nren and patriots who love country more 'than office can avert the most horrible'civil war that ever disgraced aud destroyed liberty and humanity. Andyet there never was less excuse 'fo'r any "war in tire history of the world. Sucb a war, if it come, will be the culmination of human -crime in the dastardly deatruction-of-human rights bv a disgraceful scramble -for otnee. In the late election both Mr. Tilden and Mr. Hayes received some votes. Will it not be better to have e?ther'for President than to have a ruler who received no votes? He is too "stupid for argument who does not see lha't the last alternative is possible. But whoever may or may not be made President by Returning Boards or; bayonets, one thing is certain: Mr. Tilden cannot and will not be made President unless he is made so by a fair honest connt of tho votes of tho people. That count can be neither fair nor honest unless it be had under inter pretations of the Constitution long accepted and by methods of procedure long established. The party that now demands new interpretations, or a new 'form or method of count will be a party in rebellion and treason against the Constitution, the Union, and the people. I am therefore, in favor of afairand honest constitutional count of the votes of the people. I am laboring t6 secure that count, and when secured, tBlrall abide its re snlt, and so will every other man North and 8odth. who isnotwillingto destroy his country. I am brave enougli to want peace, but not cowardly enough to accept dishonor. I believe We canavert all the calami ties I now so much dread. If we can peacefully Inaugurate the man elected by the people, we shall have a new and long lease of constitutional gov ernment. If we cannot, ttien our beautiful, alorious, and constitutional system will perish and my friends will find me on the front line bT the fatal charge in its defense. "Suiall Pox. The following paragraph Is going the rounds of the press, aud it may possibly be of value in some smuion before the winter is ovef: "I am willing to lose my reputatibn as a public man." wrote Edward Hime to tho Liverpool Mercury, If the worst case of Small pox cannot be cured in three days, simply by the use of cream of tarter. One ounce of cream ef tartar dissolvedin a pint of water, drank at intervals, when cold is a certain neverfailing remedy. It has cured thousands, never leaving a a mark nor causes blindness, and avoids tedious lingering." Hear Keeuin : Speaking of the re moval of the government anna at the St. Louis Arsenal, he eays: Tho manner in whioh Floyd placed the larger part of the military supplies of the country within reach o tho Sou thern rebels in 1860-61 is still remsoi bercd : but it ia also not forgotten thM the advantage gained by his treason was but momentary, aud counted for nothing when the country was fuirly aroused. Of course. That is to eay, when Keeuin and Btorej and the other patriots of the Chicago Times got fair ly arouaed, all these treasonable acts of Floyd counted for naught, but rebel lion tvas swept away before the im petuous charge of Ioyalt. Who would suspect now, to hear Mr. Keenin's paper talk about the traitor Floyd and the grand uprising of the people, that this same Times had to be suppressed during the war for its I traitorous utterances in favor of Floyd and that there was serious talk or hanging its editor from the lamp-post in front of his oilice. Inier-Ocean. General B. F. Butler publishes a card to explain that his views on the Presidential question have been in correctly reported.- As to tho inter view about a new election, he sayes: "I was speaking of a proposed com promise of the question between Til den aud HayeBaud I said that there was but one compromise possible. Everything else was either an aban donment of Hayes by the Republican party, or an abandonment of Tilden by the Democratio party, and that compromise was that both their claims might bo submitted to a new election under the law of 1792, if all the parties agreed in not Counting tho votes on account of their doubts of the fairness of the election, or of the fairness of the ascertainment of the election. I did not and have not given any opinion of my own of the feasibility or proprie ty of taking that course. J simply pointed out a road which might be taken if anybody chose to take It, no more nor ho lese." One democrat in Louisiana Is honest enough to acknowledge that he is dis gusted with the bulldozing business. His name is James K. Julian, and he lives in East Baton Rouge parish. He publishes his card as follows: Hayes has" certainly carried the State by 8,700'votes more than Tilden although I voted for Tilden. of course being a democrat. And I "will say further.-that on a fair count the State hr republican. I am an old citizen of this place.- Many of us are sick of this thing, and many of us hope Hayes will be deofared eleoted, because Gen eral Grant was never elected- more clearly or honestly than Hayes" is now. The republicans have not had a fair chance. We have gone sa fsr as w"e can with our plan. There is nothing left for us after this contest, and if Hayes is declared elected this time. thousands of us will fall In and go with the loyal ourrent of the country and stop, or help stop, this blood-let ting from Innocent colored men ortue South. The Hew Orleans Times reviews the action of the Demoorats in Congress on the commeroialclaimsof the South. The Holman raeolution, it olaims, waB a stupid am d-transparent dodge1 a dodee altogether unworthv of the party. The Times demands that Southern Congressmen shall now as sert themselves and demand consider ation of the levee bill and other bills, and says: "Let us- know who our friends are. Let us know if e are always to be used to succor our North ern allies, and always snubbed whon we ask a recognition of our wants. Now Is the time to bring the matter to an iesue." And when the matter NOTICE 1 I dorft kow how many Hide Buyers -there -are m town ; but one thing t do know, that W. T. DEN pays the Highest Price for Hides, Pelts aOd Furs, and sells the best brands of goods for the LOWEST PRICES, & he takes Cern ovtJash, Hides, Peltsor Furs, or Butter and Eggs for theiri. s. and you will get full Fine Clothing, Boots and Shoes, Hats and made Harrison's Improved Wagon, is brought to an issue the Southern Democrats will be snubbed again.

The country has passed through a fierce Presiden tial contest, and the result has been left in a dan gerous nnd unsatisfactory slispe, on account of the unprecedented closeness of theefctlon, tho af.gry disputes as to the votes of certain States, ana the failure of the Constitution to provide any tribunal to solve doubts or decide contested points. GOV. HAYES ELECTED.
