A foot race, 100 yards, for, $1,000 aside took place-al Denver last week, between C H. Williams of. Denver and Davis of California. Williams won the- race time, 9J seconds. South Careiina, if the people were permitted to vote as they please, Is a Republican State, but the new legis lature contains only eight Republicans to 100 Demooratio bulldozers. That chief of hypocrites and out laws, Hampton, will be elected to. the U. 8. Senate in Patterson's place. The champion wrestler, McLaugh lin of Detroit, in a match with Mc Mahon of California, at Chicago last week was thrown two best in three. McLaughlin got the first fall aud Mo- Mahon the next two. Tbe-frwnds of the vanquished champion who so long has worn the belt, claims it was- not fairly done. i c A Savannah correspondent of the- Inler Ocean in a peppery review of Republicanism in Georgia, says if the party had been united two Re publican Congressmen oould have been elected. By lack of unity uni versal defeat was th result. That is what's the matter with Republicans everywhere. Kearney Philip, begorry, hasgone ggin to Californy ; aud he It-ft a ous sln' and a ousBln.

Recently the postmaster at Central Springs, Alabama, was reported guil ty of certain violations of the postal laws. The Postmaster General sent a trusty agent named Wiliams down to bob about the matter, aud the post master was arrested, This interference with the manner of doiug business of the incorrigible Southerners, who are in constant rebellion against the laws of the United States, was re sented, and Williams the agent "was arrested on some frivolu3 charge and sent to jail, but was afterward released en a heavy bond Co appear and an swer In court. They brag that the jury which will try Williams will be "fixed," and that be is sure of severe punishment. This resistance to the duties of the agent being duly report ed to Postmaster General Key be has taken the poatofflce from Central Springs and the citizens, to receive (heir mall matter will have to go to another town several mites away.

In some instances poisou was ourried' in clothing or about peoplo going in tho infected districts. In others it wa& conveyed in such fomitea as oottnn bagging, or other goods of the same description. 4. The weight of testimony is very pronounced against the further use of disinfectant, Phyelcians in infected towns, a! rrtos without exception, ntate that they are useless agentB to arrest the spread of yeilovr fever, while some of them affirm that their vapors are seriously prejudicial to the sick. 5.

H - -- - . Shockey and; GoryelL, Aspinwall, Ned., July 23, 1878. E!es Coiyell. My Dear Brother, I am in the field, and well. A general besieging an other once said to the one besieged, "-Why don't you come out and fight me?" The other replied, "Why don't you force me to come out and Sghtyou?" I have been told by several that you have said, "I debated or review ed Elder Sbockey and he would not reply;" also, that you Jump Univer saliBm in my behalf, and close by Bay ing "I am not afraid of old mau Shockey," which I hope i9 true, for I am sure I hope to do nothing to cause any man to be afraid of me. This I deem sufficient apology for Intruding your sanctum. Therefore I propose that you, or anyone you wish or can get, discuss with me at Brownville, Bay the IaBt week in September next, the fairly stated issues of religion between us, viz.: 1. The Bible teaoheB that they who live and die impenitent shall endure endless punishment. You affirm I deny. 2. The Bible teaohet that in due time all mankind shall be holy and happy. I affirm you deny. 3. The Bible teaches that immer sion is essential to future salvation. You affirm I deny. I courteously invite your early at tention to this important matter. I am sure if you Bay, to be wrong in life Eubjects to endless punishment, you- ought to leave naught undone, j-ou could do to avert the awful ca lamity. And I am equally sure that anyone believing it Buffers incompre hensibly through life, and I feel solic itous that any and all be eaved from 6uch suffering. Pleat-e duly recognize a most phi lanthropic object. I am the only Universalist preacher in this State, and pray for the deliverance of the loat. Respectfully and truly yours, War. P. Shockey. Brown vhixe, Neb., July 29, 1878. Elder Shockey. Dear Sir: Your letter of date July 23d is received, contents noted. In reply I will say, first, that I believe that where two religious denomina tions live in the samo Ircalily and are having influence over the minds of the people, thata fair, honest discussion will always result In good, but as far as universalism is concerned I do not think it profitable to discuss the dif ference between us, especially in this plane. There Is no church in this county, and I don't know of a Uni verbalistchurohin the State, and you Bay that you are the only praolitr of that order in the Ptate. I fpel sorry for you in 3'our lonely condition and verily believe that you are trying to build up a theory that must ultimate ly be destroyed, and should the time eome that yu do pucceed in establish ing such a theory, then me or my Brethren will be willing to meet you, hut as yet we think it is not needed and therefore decline the offer. I remain ns ever, your friend, and wish that we may both of us so con duct nurselve? In this life that we may ultimately enjoy eternal life. D. B. CORYEI'I. Brownville, Neb., Nov. 19, 1878. Eldir D. B. Coryell. Dear Brother, from your position of declination to meet or have me met, in disoussion, I delayed reply and waited new developments. As some whiskers by your friends indicate I have "backed down,' I just say that I demand of you to ar range to meet me In open and fair dis cussion of the above propositions. Give me from one to three week's notice, and I will be ready to attend to it in a manly and christian manner. I.am respectfully thine, War. P. Shockey. Wilmington, Del., Nov. 21. At Chesterton, Md., Uvea a womau nam ed Doddon.j in good circumstances. She has- two daughters, who-, some time ago, became mothers of illegiti mate children, that were killed. A colored man, James Jones, buried tbe bodies, and was threatened with death if he revealed the crime. He told the Btory to a woman, and on Tuesday two men, Vincent and Newcom, cousins of the girls, locked Jones in the Dodson farm house, promising him no harm if be would leave the State forever. Jones agreed, and on Tuesday night the men and Mrs. Dod son startea witn Jones in a oarriage for Delaware. About midnight, iu the dense wood at Vandyke's Station, near the Delaware line, the mpn pre pared to kill Jones. He begged for his life and promised never to return, but the woman told the men to kill him and be done with him. They fired two bullets Into his head and then dragged him Into the wnodB. supposing him dpnd. He revlvpd. however, Hufiloiently to draff himself to a farm house and relate the above story. The men have been arrested and thp woman will be. Two notorious counterfeiters were arrested at Keokuk, Jowa, last week. Their names are Rclter and Taney. A quantity of bogus trade dollars and fractional pieces were found In the hnusa they occupied and on their per sons. They have heen at the business for some time and Iowa Is pretty well stooked.wlth counterfeit trade dollars. and they are doubtless scattered all over tbe weBt, even Into- Nebraska. The metal used is said to have been nickel and tinners solder, and are hard in substance and not detected by a mere glance or trying; them with tbe teeth.

I rose bright and early with the thought of going to Peru on my mind. I went down town and after hunting some thing to read while on the train, I re paired to the depot, aud after waiting sometime succeeded in getting start ed. I had just got deeply interested in reading the Progress when we came to a sudden stop! Had I arrived there already ? No. 'Twas the "water-tank. "' Presently we started again and settled myself to read- In scarce ly a half hour more I arrived at Peru. I sprang from the traiu meeting the "Major's family" Col. Tom and wife were taking the train for the East also Mr. M. J. Fenn, the genial editor of the Herald, (he was taking the train); we grasped hands and shook, and talked a few seconds, when the train started and we parted. But a few steps took me to the long street leading up town. I first stopped at the poBtoflice. There I met Johnny Majors all Brownville knows John ny he is thedeputy postmaster. And after registering at the hotel, wended my way to the Herald office. There I found some of the boyB "settin" 'em up," while others were "working 'em off" on a new "fangled press" very much unlike the one I have been used to working In the Advertiser office it doesn't work so fast. Ab I was onjmy way to the Herald, I met Da vid Campbell who formerly wob a olt Izen of Brownville. After dinner I took a ramble tbrou' the city. Peru, like Brownville and most Missouri river towns is situated among tbe bills, and has a population of about six hundred. As you enter the town from the south, the first building that greets the eye is the State Normal School. It is situated on a beautiful plateau on the south side of town and can be Been for miles around. My attention was next at tracted by the new Baptist Church, which is now being finished. It is situated at the corner of one of the principal streets. We would like to say thesame of Peru as of Brownville: that its streets are orowded with teams and it6 stores thronging with busi ness, but on the whole it is very quiet. The grain buyers are filliug up their cribs with corn at fifteen centB per bushel. Lee. NEBRASKA NEWS AND NOTES.

Omaha Commercial: Rapid growth in business-ami-population is visible iu Mebraska everywhere, and Omaha is keeping pace with the State. A moderate estimate places Nebraska 80,000 to 100,000 ahead of Jan. 1, 1878, and by Jauuuty, 1879, the population will equal 3SJ.0UO to 400,000. Sidney Telegraph: We notice that those people who are always rail ing and scolding about the drawbacks of the towns in which the live are tbe hardest cases to drive out. And yet railroads, stage coaches and free highways are very numerous. We fail to see the necessity for any further issues of the Nebraska City Press. C. C. Courier. No use unless it is for variety. Its editor as a literary thief aud journal istic liar ' fills the bill." Kearney Press : No chance for grasshoppers next year. There isn't an egg of the hopper persuasion in the state of Nelrsska. There 1b no-more justification for a 6oIid Democratic South now than there was for a t-olid Confederate South from 1801 to 1865. To vindicate the one involves excuse of the other. It is a common trick of Democratic log ic to claim that the Democratic party is national, and the Republicann par ty sectional. Aud webuspeud serious argumeut to jocosely Bay that it is by parity of logic we presume that so many members of (hat party justify themselves for so generally giving themselves over to the service of the devil. They see sin universal aud right eous living limited and so iu their doctrineof devotion to majorities they find their own unmixed cuj8edness sustained bv Democratic principle5". That when some Southern people committed themselves to slavery and secession they found allies in every fate of the Union where they found Democrats. do?s not prove anything tn the the discredit of RppuhlioHnlrn.

Judge Buokner. of Missouri. Chair man of the Committee, on Banking and Currency, and President of the Congressional Silver JjpftEtie, In nn swnr toan inquiry as to what thesilver men propoed doing in Congress this winter, said it was proposed to aenure unlimited coinage-, if possible, and in other wavp try to make silver np good asgold. He fchnughtsomething wnu'd ho dono with regnrd to retiring tho orculatinn of nationnl bank note but he was only speaking from his impressions, and not from tbe knowl sdge of any stated plan. Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving day was instituted by the Pilgrims at Plymouth as a day of fasting, thanksgiving, and prayer, in memory of the bountiful crops gath ered at their first harvest, in 1621. Occasional days of thanksgiving were held from then until 1680, when it be came an annual custom iu Massachu setts, and they were frequeut in other colonies, often at different seasons aud for various purposes, asYfur the safe arrival of ships after dangerous voyages, or for victories over the In dians. Thanksgiving Day was a na tional institution throughout the rev olutionary war but there was no na tional appointment after the general thanksgiving for peace in 1784, until President Washington recommended one in 1789, for the udoptiou of ttie Constitution. There were other offic ial appointments for national thanks giving, in 1795 for the suppression of an insurrection, and iu 1815 for the successful termination of the secoi'd war with Great Britain. It early be came one of the most prominent holi days throughout New England: in other sections It was frequently ob served locally, and by some religious bodies. The Governor of New York has annually recommended a day of thanksgiving since 1817. Proclama tions for the observance of the day were made hy tbe Governor of Vir ginia in 1855, and in eight Southern States in 1858. President Lincoln is sued proclamations recommending days of special thanksgiving for vic tories in 1862-3 and in 1S63 4 for the annual observance of the day by the nation; since which time the Presi dent has ipsued such a proclamation annually, supplemented by one from the Gsvernnrs of many of the states. Year by year the day Is becoming n truly national festival, avd especially where New England blood and senti menthave made themselves manifest. Tt Is a day, too. whleh should hpeoree national In every spnse. as no other nation, a a nation, has grenter rpaoon to he thankful to the Giver of all good, for llhertv and progress, than ours. American Agriculturist. m a ' Mormon lYomen in Convention. Mormon women, who adhere to the doctrine of polj'gamy held a meeting in Salt Lake City, recently, as a coun ter movement to the crusade now be ing made by the "gentile" women of Utah. The following is a sj'uopsis of some of the speeches made: Miss Suow said : Wo are saints of the living God. We have been persecuted and driven from pluce to place, and misrepresent ed from time to time. We want to explain that we are loyal American citizens and we claim protection from the government under which we live to practice our religion, and aasisl witii our labors to make this noil our homes. We claim this uuder God and the Constitution of the United States, as it has been revealed by God. and we have the right to believe as we pleabe, and to listen to the voice of God when He speaks, to keep His commandments, as He has revealed them unto us ; to believe that he has raised up' a prophet, and to practice the dictates of conscience. Inasmuch as one of these pjinciplei ! jen pa sailed, we e!tiliutbe rlgut to express our views on this subject. Before plural marriage was reveal ed, we were driven from our homes and massacred, and uot one of the murderers has been brought to jus tice. 1 believe in plural marriage as much as I believe iu anything that is sacred and that it will suve the human fam ily from corruption; that it would be a higher honor to a nation aud to the family, and Congress would be nobler and higher loan one compobed of mo uogumiots. It tends to virtue and ho-Itne.-s, aud whoever repieseuts the women of these marriage as degrad- eu, aedire to nriug evu upon us, or they know not what they do, I depre cate the false and odious standing and character, und I view with pity aud commiseration those who are banded together in our midst to destroy the most sacred relation between men aud women, husband ami wives, to make children bastards, aud trample upon the most sacred of the affections of the human heart. They seem as if they wauted to measure arms with the Almighty. 1 don't feel any re venge against them, they are with God, "Vengeance is mine, I will r pay. saith the Lord." Amen. The next speaker was a widow of the late George A. Smith, Biigham's first counselor, who read a written ad dress. She said the movemeut that was being made against celestial mar riage was a orusade against their sa cred religion, and that lawyers had no more right to interfere with plural marriage than with baptism by im mersion. Mrs. ZinaD. Young, before referred to.ondoncea wi'e of Joseph Smith next addressed them. She said she was the daughter, and had been the wife, of a Master Mason. That if polygam3' wa practiced there would be no more ruined women That the eternal aim of the Almighty waB with plural marriage, and that the women who believed in it honored God bv their virtue. That the mormon church was an organization of the Godn. and that it kept their daughter3 from the corrupting influences of the world. That she bad no animosity no hardness of heart against the wo men of this crusade. Mis. Auua T. Cain was the next speaker. Slio said she had been brought up very strictly und virtu ously in England ; that she had al wuys heard of the laud of the free ; that anybody could practice any re ligion they saw tit, that she desired to come here, and lid, to see this Eldo rado (but us Bbe used her h's, it sound ed as if bbe Buid this Heldnrado). That she bad been in the churoh twenty-eight years, hut she would uot give up what Mormonism had done for her Tor Queen Victoria's wealth, and God being my helper, I am going to live my religion, for I know It Is full of glory and immor tality. Mrs. Bishop Smoot, of provo, was the next. She is the Bishop's first wife. She gave her testimony to the everlasting Gospel and to the work of tho living God. and she wanted tossy that thirf baneful and distasteful ulcer this plurality of wives, was from God. am a wife of a polygBmist ; I belfpve in Its principles, and that it in pure and ohate. and that purer and cbast er women do not live on God's foot stool.

She said Joseph Smith had been arrested forty times for crimes committed, but not one was proved. She was brought up in a vir tuous manner. When she first beard of polygamy she thought It was a he ninus thing, hut she went to her God, and He made it manifest to her that it was from Him, and she knew it was benpflclnl to woman.
