State Journal: Who were tho
friends of the greenbacks in 1877 ?
On the 2d of Novembr, 1877, Mr.
Hubbell, a Republican, moved to in
sert, as an ameddment to the Ewing
currency bill, providing that the re
sumption act of 1875
"Shall be so construed as not to au
thorize or require the secretary of the
Treasury to retire and cancel said
notes, redeemed as aforesaid, but to
authorize aud require said Secretary
to deposit said notes in the Treasury
of tho United States, whereupon said
notes shall be paid out at par value in
discharge of ail claims and demands
against the United States, or in ex
change for coin ; aud said notes ahull,
as heretofore, be a legal tender, und
on and after January 1st, 1S79, shall
be receivable, at their face value, in
payment of all dues to the. Govern
ment, and for all debts, except where
coin payment is stipulated by contract
orstntute, and ail provisions of law In
conflict- with this act are hereby repealed."
This proposition was defeated, only
6 Democrats voting for it, and only 30
Republicans votingagalnst it. Ewing,
of Ohio, tlie pretended Greenbacker,
voting agaiust it, and Frank Welch, of
Nebraska, voting for it.
Who were the Greeubackers up to
June, 1S78?
April 29, Mr. Fort, Republican, in
troduced a bill forbidding the retire
ment and cancellation of the green
backs after January 1st, 1S79, divested
of the provisions ur nuutiers uereat
ed bill that provided for the receiving
of greenbacks for all government
dues, the best that could bo done in
the Demooratic House, and it passed.
But it was in June that the decisive
vote was cast.
The Republican Senate passed a bill
as follows, (June 13, 1S78) :
Be it enacted, etc., Tliat from and
after the passage of this act United
State notes shall bo receivable the
same as coin In paj'ment for the four
per ceut. bonds, now authorized by
law to bo issued, and on and after Oc
tober 1, 1878, said notes 6hall be receiv
able for duties on imports.
Let our greenbnok friends read this
over again carefully, and see if It is
what they want.
On the 18th of June Mr. Fort, of the
House, a Republican, moved that the
rules be suspended and this little bill,
that everi' man could certainly under
stand, be passed. The session being
nearly ended, it required u suspension
of the rules to save the bill. Ninety
seven Democrats voted agaiust the
suspension of tho rules and the pass
age of the bill, and thirty-four in fa
vor of it, three to one against honor
ing the greenback by making It re
ceivable for all bonds now authorized
by law, and for important duties,
these being the two sorts of debts the
greenback will not pay now. One

To Sunday School Workers-:
s rm - r
UBEbTisu : aoe oujcera or- your
State- Association, desiring to farther
the interests you have committed to
their trust, of promoting the efficien
cy of Sunday Shools throughout the
State, by uniting Christian workers
in earnest effort, to advance the cause
of Christ, have agreed to invite the
Churches and Sunday Schools of Ne
braska to unite in the observance of a
"General Sunday School Day," Sept.
29th, 1878. Our State Society aims to
organize a County Sunday School So
ciety in every county, to lioid State
and County Conventions and Insti
tutes, and by these means to explore
our field, awaken Ihterst, and thor
oughly qualify workprs for their res
pective duties. To effect this, contin
ued, persistent, determined effort is
being made every year. We feel we
need the prayers, the sympathy and
the substantial aid of ail our Sunday
Schools. The work itself is done
gratuitously, bqt it involves consider
able expense of travel, correspond
ence, printing, eto.
At the Jat State Convention In
Kearney it was Resolved, That to
meet the necessary expenses of our
Association, Sunday School in the
State be asked to contribute
nt least the amount of two
cents for each member enrolled, and
as much more as they may please.
We therefore, First, ask every
School within ourborders to take this
collection, upon (his, Nebraska's
Sunday School Day, and send It to
the Treasurer at Fremont, who will
return a postal-card receipt to eaoh
Sohool contributing.
Second. We ask every Minister of
the Gospel to preach a special sermon
on that day to ench of his congrega
tions, upon the claims of the Sunday
School upon the Church and commu
nity. Third. Wp ask thnt the session of
ench Sunday School be followed by
n prayer meeting, that a short report
he given at this meeting of that par
ticular School for the summer, thnt
they pray for themselves and for
God's blessing upon the teaching of
His word.
Fourth. We ask thnt Sunday
evening each church and congre
gation in our cities and villages, and
each school in all our cnun tie's, hold a
meeting for thanksgiving and prayer
for the extension of the Sundn3'
School work In our commonwealth.
Dear Brethren, will vou pray for us?
Confident that nil pnofors nnd
schools receiving tlii appeal will res
pond chperfullv nnd promptly, nnd
trusting thnt nil the Mnster'.s servants
into whoso hnndo or before whoop
eyes the this circular mny nnrno will
give It encouragement, nnd nid in ev
erv way pnpsible. we pend It forth on
wings of prayer and fnlth tn Its mis

In answering the Inquiries of a
of a correspondent, th Western Rural
haH the following good and true words
for Southeastern Nebraska:
Southeastern Nebraska offers as
flue advantages for general furmiug,
or for the suecialtles nnmpd hv nur
correspondent, as any section within J
our knowledge. The winters are I
comparatively short, tame grasses
and clovers do admirably there, the
climate is favorable to health and the
maturity of crops, and fruits do well.
Our own judgment is, that few if any
sections in the new West offer better
advantages to new settlere and es
pecially young men who wish tomake
mixed husbandry a nusiness, or to en
gage in a few specialties, as stock rais
ing or dairying than Southeastern
Nebraska. It is not so remote from
market as to be open to serious objec
tion on thnt ficore, having a choice of
either Chicago or St. Lonis, to Bay
nothing of seaboard points. Excur
sion tickets can bo had over
the routes mentioed by our corres
pondent, to persons desiring to pur
chase land.
Those who come to Southeastern
Nebraska should not fail to visit Ne
maha County, and learn of our extra
ordinary crops of corn, wheat, barley,
rye, fruit, eto. Lands here, improved
or unimproved can be bought cheap.
