The State Journal of the 11th Inst, has a lengthy editorial review of the testimony in the late Howe Investiga tion. Of course, the -whole drift of the labored article, its whole aim end object being to whitewash Howe and to deceive the -readers of the Journal regarding the testimony. For in stance, in making a statement of Barker's testimony, the Journal says: Mr. Jas. Barker was the next wit ness oalled by Kosewater's counsel. He testified that he was the confiden tial friend of Patrick, and aided him In bis campaign for senator. He tea? tified to having been present at an in terview between Patrick and Howe at Omaha, prior to the meeting of the legislature, when the subject of his candidacy was broached, and swore that no money proposition or other improper inducement was made or of fered. He deollued to answer any question as to whether Patrick endeavored to ose or did use money to secure his election, on the ground that it might criminate or he otherwise injurious to himself, and the prosecution did not insist upon any further answer. Pettifogging is the best the Journal can do In the case for its old client, and so it pettifogs. It attaches great Importance to the item of testimony regarding an Interview between Pat rick, Barker and Howe In Omaha, be cause Barker could swear that noth ing was said about bribery In that in- srriew. "Barker nromDtlv answered the question did not decline to ans- rer for fear of criminating himself. ind so that firpt paragraph quoted kbove from the Journal gives the lie the lie to the -second .paragraph rpbjb..frys ! Realised -to -answer any questions as to whether Patrick endeavored to use or did use money to secure his election." Mr. Barker's answer regarding the Omaha Interview was "I-havc no re membrance of such talk." .But the - very next question asked Mr. Barker, one, taking the question andHtiswer together, of real bearing on the cape. the Journal skips over aud says noth ing about. This question was: "Did you know anything of his placing money at the disposal of Mr. Howe, to aid In securing-hla election, in any manner? Answer I decline to answer." He remembered something about this, and swore that.he declned to an swer because if be did so It would criminate himself. The Journal stu diously falsifies and garbles the testi mony and;reasonaas a paid pettifog ger. In regard to Mr.Xett's testimony it eryb : . , "This wni rebuttod by two tele grams from Patrick, denying that he said be had ever paid Howe any mone3'." The Journal utters in this a deliber ate fufoehond, for the telegrams did not rebut Mr. Lett's testimony nor contradict it in any point or reppect whatever. Mr. Lett never said that Patrick told him that he had paid Howe money. Mr. Lett's testimony was that Patrick said that "Howe got our money and never returned it. "Not one cent." "Howe is a gueril la." "I would have been thousands of dollars better off had I never seen him." Patrick id m ply denied in those dispatches, saying he had ever paid Howe money, and no one had ever said that he did say so. So where doeB the rebuttal come in ? Mr. Towle Hon. E. S. Towle. of Richardson connt3' was a witness In the late Howe Investigation. If will be remembered that Mr. Towle was a member of the Legislature two years 8go, and was charged by the Kearney Press as having also received n bribe from Patrick. Mr. Towle swears hlmeelf clear and innocent in the matter. One of his answers to a ques tion asked draws our attention. It is as follows: "If I had known Mr. Pat rick ns well then as I do now, after Mr. Dundy got off the track, I would l,3Ve voted for him." Mr- Patriok no doubt, by his opera tions in Jrylng to manipulate Oregon for Tllden, Lire elevated himself won derfully jn the estimation of Mr. Towle. Such men as Pal ck always possess attractions that fail nL to draw such men as Towle and Howe. The following is the report of the Senate committee on -the Howe-Rose-water investigation : Powers, from the tpecial committee made ttie following report. Mr. Prtsident Your committee ap pointed to investigate the charges against the Hon. Church Howe, a member of this body, by E. Ros-ew-uier, Esq. editor of the Omahu Mee, in his paper of January 31), 1877, having had the same under consideration and af ter having examined numerous wit nesses in reference to said charges would report the following, together with the testimony taken by "said commitee, and after a careful examin ation of the facts and testimony of fered, conclude that the testimony is entirely insutlicent to support the charges made, and that as far as ap pears from all the tacts developed, said charges are without foundation in truth.

Robt. W. Furnas, Prest. D..H. Wheeler, Sec. , LETTER FROM CHICAflO. Chicago, February 4, 1877. Editor Nebraska Atlvci User. This city is large enough to afford an abundance to say in a correspond ence, yet its dimensions preclude the idea of one saying much unless lie expends considerable time in looking it up. which I have thus far not been able to do. We, like you of the west, had, a couple of weeks since, what old set tters styled a big snow. It fell here to the depth of about nine inches, taxing snow plows on street and oth er railroads to their utmost capacity to keep lines clear. Here in the city, on the streets where cars run, it was ricked up, iu many places ten feet high ; and along the streets which I traveled, less than four, snow-balling became a passion with all ; so that one's' .hat, or the side of one's head, were never really safe unless kept in doors. During the past week the snow has nearly all disappeared, and made almost a duck-pond of many sections of the city. The first few days of the thaw it was feared that a general flooding of what is known as Canal street would take place. Yet a cold day and night intervening, and the weather softening up more grad ually, did away with that apprehen sion. Just now the medical faculty and board of health aro exercising them selves vigorously to conquor the scar let fever, which seems to be almost assuming an epidemic character. The deaths have numbered as. high as for ty per week, and seems so far to have been confined to the children of the poorer classes and to 'those of foreign birth. This winter .has undoubtedly been the hardest on the pocfr-ofthe larger j cities that has ofillcted them for many yeareand their lackof, proper food and ordinary comforts, 'coupled wMth the condition of the atmopliere'whloh has made ..this disease appear- else- ,whereJn rjnild -form, are likely to "malie lie. ravages -terrible in this city, !u:)!eM'checkedbyHbe present well- backed determination to Stamp Itout. Yet, It seems strange that among those afflicted is shown the main op position to the move'foron all doors where the disease exists, cards have been tacked, "ecarfet&feyer here," which cards iiave,:ueentnradown so often-by the-occupants thuta penalty had to be euacted for tearing them down. Ail seem to breathe and feel easier since, the mayor, council, board of health, and most of the prominent physicians are doing all in their pow er to "stamp it out." , Business don't beem to revive much, as wasand has been predicted every week for the past several year. There is always .something in the way. It is alwaj's "to be,'-' yet never 1.5. -To .one from such a lively place as yours it does not seem quite so dull us to an "old stager" here ; and I get my impressions from persons who have lived here for a decade of years. They 6eem to know of no winter or spring dull enough to afford a com parison. And one hears so often the expression that business wjll look up as soon as the Presidential question is settled, that one almost wishes he were ar Joshua that he might coni-mand-the sun to stand still till it was fixed ,up, that, itj,might last only one day. Yet it furnishes food for hope, and that is. only a little less substan tial than many thousands are daily subsisting on. The pleasant -weather for the past few da38 has made the parks look so inviting. with their already green blue gra93,-and4 other tempting accessories, that qn-a pleasant afternoon hundreds may be seen promenading in. them. The onl3f one I have so far visited, as it is within two blocks of m abode, is U.nion Park. It-affords great pleas ure to the children in its exhibition of-bears, teagles, owls, coo.m, swans, ducks, -etc., nd its rustic bridges, grottos and streams; arid to me, in reminding me of i.he natural parklike-town I had helped .(and. worked so hard to build up -on the banks of the old Missouri. This U onty one of the lesser.parks, the others:aresaid to be as far superior to this, as this is to an ordinary back 3'nrd. Of them I will write "when the spring time conies, ge,ntle,AnnIe." I find living here as cheap as In Brownville; in fact most household necessaries ore cheaper, save butter, eggs, and potatoes. The best steak in the beef is only 12.o per pound, and pork from G to l'JJc; while smoked meats are shoulders 10c, hams 15c. All articles shipped or manufactured, are less In price here than with 3'ou. And in dr3' goods, the difference is widerstill in favor ofhere. Of course there are places where one can pM3' a big price for things, and get no better than he will in oilier places for less; 3et so few are in search of these f-plr.cca -time nney are -most ousuierrr All sensible business men have com prehended the necessit3' of striking 'bottonr.rices"' or risk being left iso lated and oloneY-Uinlilnu unpaid-for stock. While the papers nd? tLaf-crime has flourished here this winter to atf un precedented extent, it is not one-hni." what I expected to see. I have no! seen a drunken man since 1113 arrival here, and I have been around as much as would have shown me 500 in tin city of St. Louis, when living there twenty 3 ears" ago ' aud 3et saloons rI bow each other on ever3' street, most, however, ore for the sale of beer. Thefts are of frequent, very frequent, occurrence; and this class of crime, resulting more from necessity than natural love of it, Is doubtless? greater than usual. The arrangements' to feed the needy are said to be ample, and doubtless are to those who app'3 ; yet the great number of professional vagrants has doubtless caused the honest need3 to Undergo such an ordeal of questions as to drive a pluck3' man to theft rath er than run such a gauntlet. In stance: a man was the other night shot by a policeman as he, with two others, were caught plundering a meat market, and when captured he had a few pounds of dr3' beef. His reputation was good up to tin's time. Oh! if birth-rights were saleable ns In da3'R of old, times are so thata doz- 'en might be bought for a mess of pot tage. To the ladies. I can sa3 nothing of the fashions here. To one not up in such matters It seems that tjie female world had come to a comprehension of the situation, as the3' seem lo be wearing what is most economical, useful and comfortable. Unless upon one or two of the bbn-ton streets, 3'ou would not see 003' more fashionahty dressed ladies here than In 3'our own city ; and the few 3011 would see seem to look neat, not gaud3. I saw friend Caffre3 about a week since. He has left the Enterprise and Times, and Chicago. He said lie should go and pay his mother a short visit, when be should go east, or west, or north, or south, he guessed; he didn't know which-yet. He has the west "on the brain,1 however, and' I should not be surprised to hear of him at auy time as out among the g-hop-pers.

Some time, I think, in May, after the Sen atorial election, I was in Chicago and met Mr. Patrick and Dr. Miller at the depot, and came with them from Chicago as far as Bed Oak, in Iowa. Somewhere between Chioago apd where I left them the conversation came up in reference to the Senatorial contest. Mr. Patrick uskefl me where our mutal friend Church Howe, was now. I stated that he was at home, in Nemaha when I li'ft. Thereupon Mr. Patrick said, "That Hoxve is a cuss.7' I remarked, "Yi!. Howe is pretty lively." He then said, "Howe isatiuerrilln." Gen.

"I would have been thousands of dollars better off if I had never seen him." I was a little inquisitive to know, and he went on and told me he had speut money during that senatorial contest. a number of thousands of dollars. My impression now is, ten or twelve thou sand, and I said to him I eould'nt see how he could spend so much money as that, and he answered, "Well, iu various ways. Howe got several thousand dollars." I can't Fa3 whether he mentioned the amount or not. If he did, I am not now -and never have been, able to recollect the amount. .1 said to him I couldn't see how Howe should cet any of their mone3.

I said, "I suppose then Howe paid 3'our money back.", He said, "Not a cent." 1 s'edh;ni no more questions, and th it is in substance the entire conver sation and the onl3' statement I ever made, private or public, in reference to tl.o matter that I know.
