The Democrats of Congress have
finally passed. the appropriation bill

Kearney elected-, a fulL- temperance
ticket; Omaha, and Lincoln went
Republican.

spreading into the prairi9 grass., burn
ed the out buildings of J. S. Babcock,
aorib of 1,000 bushels of corn 150 of
wheat, 5 hogs, farm machinery etc.
The newspapersnow "understand"
that the big brewer of Omaha Metz
paid Dr. Miller $500 for his lecture
in Lincoln agaiii6t. prohibition, de
livered just prior to the vote on the
bill. We had an Idea that the editor
of the Herald was about that kind of
a reformer.
If the Brownville Advertiser de
sires to be convinced. that ML. J. Fenn
was drunk in Nebraska City, let him
write to any publio man here, or Dr.
Renner, Storekeeper at the Nebraska
City Distillery. Neb. City Press.
We have beoome satisfied that the
Prcs3 was correct. We also learn
that Fenn has been reinstated in the
Peru Temple.
The rebels in tbs House and Senate
are discharging from positions about
the capltol the Union soldiers who
have held those places for years, and
appointing in their stead confederate
soldiers, and reinstating some who
were discharged in 1861 for their dis
loyalty. Union soldiers, one legged
and one armed Union veterans,, have
to take "back seats" now.
The latest news from. Leadville say
the remaius of thirty-five- persons
were buried in one day, and yet there
were seven ready dug graves on the
market. We surmise that dealers ad
vertise thus: "A large assortment of
ready-made graves always in stock.
Call early and take your choice."
Chieftain.
It is reported that the mud is knee
deep in the streets of Leadville, and
in the timber, where the gold Is re
ported to be, the snow is knee deep.
Leadville must be a rovely place.
Senator Dawes, of MassachusettSj
thus preseats the- issue between the
two parties: "The Democrats an
nounce that they will break up the
government if they are not permit
ted to break into the ballot boxes.
We shall unflinchingly defend the
eleotion laws, and let the Demoorats
carry out their threat of refusing ap
propriations if they dare. On this
question I' think there is but one
opinion an.tr one will amoug Repub
licans. "Walker Watson was hanged at New
Port, Ind., 3d inst., for murderl ng Ez
ra Compton. Watson "experienced
religion" a few days before his neck
was broken. What a fortunate thing
for him. tuat he was wicked enough to
murder a man : for bad be not done
aot and been too good to hurl ft soul I
before its maker unprepared, ten
chances to one he would never "ex
perienced religion" at all. Watson is
all rlffhfc. enjoying hirneelT in Heaven
whilst his victim, according to the
logio of these teachings, suffers the
torments nf hell. This rnay ue law
but it is not justice.
Cjclopedla of Literature
A list of the celebrated authors
whose lives and writings are repre
sented in volume 3-of the now Acme
edition of Chambers's. Cyclopedia of
English Literature, just received, in
certainly very attractive to any per
on of fine literary taste. Fox.Penn,
Baxter, Bunyan, Locke, Newton,
Browne, Hale, Walton, Dryden.
Temple, Evelyn, Pepys, Butler, Ad
dison, Swift, Pope, Ramsay, Cibher,
Steel, Berkeley, Defoe, and the Bol
ingbroke, are a few of the brilliant
stars which brighten the 410 pages.
"It will bring gladness to many a
scholar's heart." says the Times, of
Philldelphla, "to find that this truly
admirable work has been brought
within the range of shallow pocket."
Eight such volumes, beautifully print
ed, and elegantly bound in cloth, for
only $2 50. or by the single volume
for 43 cents, post-paid, is certainly a
marvel of cheapness, and should es
tablish an enviable reputation for the
publishers, if it can not make their
fortune. Already they report a sale
of nearly 00.0Q0 volumes. It ought to
be in every library and home in the
land. Specimen pages and full par
ticulars as-to various styles of bind
ing, terms to clubs, etc., will be sent
free on request by the publishers, the
American Book Exchange, 55 Beek
man street, New York. The work is
sold only to subscribers direct, and)
the nresent wonderful low rates are
offered only to early purchasers.
Volumes of the work can be seen at
the office ol this paper, and those
who deslrejmay add tbsSr names to
a club soon to be forwarded.
If our readers want some reliable
news about Leadville, here it is from
B. D. Slaughter "Gad" of the State
Journal. Gad went to Leadville to
see about it, and we extract from his
letter in the Journal:
Leadville or the old "California
Gulch," is just now the objective
joint for every fortune hunter.
A. I'ruud, a snare, and a delusion
that is Leadville. Not but what there
are some rich quartz mines there, but
it takes a small fortune to open and
work even a small quartz lode. There
Is a fortune for a lucky few who have
possession of all the claims that are
worth anything ; but the greatmass of
people who go there, and who have
gone there, will never see the inside
of a silver mlsje, unless they go to
work for day's wages, and are there
by enabled to-earn their living.
It costs about two dollars and a half
a day for very common board, and
plenty of men are willing to work for
their board, if they can only get a job.
This does not include coffee for eaoh
meal, as that costs fifteen cents extra.
Neither does it include hot cakes, for
they cost twent3'-five cents extra. A
beef steak is out of the question, as
that is seventy-five cents extra..
We have met hundreds of men go
ing to Leadville. We have met hun
dreds coming back.
They went out with bright, hopeful
faces, with money in their pockets,
with blankets, provisions, carpet
sacks and revolvers. They came back
discouraged, moneyless, provisions
gone, carpet-sacks gone, blanketR.j
gone, revolvers gone, and in many
cases their overcoats sold for food.
We are glad to note that the people
of Brownville elected a straight pro
hibition ticket. Advocates of high
license were not to be found in suffi
cient numbers to legalize orime. In
Brownville the friends of temperance
can say, "We have met the enemy
and they are ours." Will our con
temporary say that the enemy allud
ed to after the day of election here
waH greater than in Brownville?
Spirit of the Hour.
The Democratic legislature of Indl

The Talmage trial waB in progress

A FLEAEOR ASSISTANCE:
To Help the Poor Colored People Who
are Hovr Fleeing From the
Scenes of Their Woes
and Misery
St. Louis, April 1. A number of
prominent colored gentlemen who
.have been most active in relieving
while here and assisting to their des
tination colored emigrants from the
south, Issued this afternoon the fol
lowing appeal for aid :
To all generous amhoharltable peo
ple throughout the country: For
three weeks there has-been daily land
ed at our wharfs scores and sometimes
huudreds of colored refugees from the
south fleeing from a seoond slavery.
Their accounts of oppression and in
human treatment by white leaguers
and planters are terrible. Their
struggle to make their way to the free
west should receive the attention of
liberty loving men and women every
where, and we appeal to all 6uoh for
means to assist them in finding new
homes. Colored people of this city
have not encouraged them to come,
transportation companies haveoflertd
them no inducements to emigrate, but
according to tbeir own testimony they
have started for Kansas because thty
heard they would be free there and be
cause it was impossible for them to live
longer at their old homes. These ref
ugees at the best have but slender
means, a large proportion of them are
destitute when they reach here, hav
ing spent all their money for passage
to this point, and are thus dependent
upon others to reach their destination.
The colored people of this city are do
ing all In their power to keep them.
So far they have fed and sheltered
them while here, and forwarded sev
eral hundred to Kansas, but still they
come and we are compelled to appeal
to geuerous and benevolent peo
ple everywhere to aid us in our work.
We need both money and clothing.
In the name of God and humanity we
aHk help for refugees. Any contribu
tion sent to the following persons v
be most thankfully received and ac
knowledged :
Rev. Mosses Dickson, 1,211 Morgan
street; Rev. John Turner, 1.512 Mor
gan street; Rev. S. P. Anderson. 8th

Sioux City, Iowa, April 3. A
young man named Lively, living $it
St. James, Neb., has been paying At
tentions to a 3'ounglady of that place.
Six weeks ago the family of the young
lady found she had been seduced.
Lively at first denied it, but finally
owned up, and promised to marry her.
The night before the wedding hesklp
ped, and has not been 3inoe seen.
The young lady has since given birth
to twins.
Milwaukee, Wis., April 3. An
old sinner of 50 summers, named C.
W. Crawford, who had married Rieda
Fowle, daughter of a worthy farmer,
William Fowle, of the town of Oak
Creek, this .-county, on Monday last,
was jailed to-day on the charge of va
grancy. It is claimed that all his
talk of large farms in Kansas and
Texas, herds of cattle, and the Presi
dency of a bank, was to secure the
girl's dowery of from $7,000 to $8,000.

Inter Ocean: The 8outhern Demo
cratic journals are picturesquely
grouped-, holding on to- the coat-tails
of their gushing and free-spoken
friends of the OkalonaiStourTi em States.
They assure him that his paper is of
no importance whatever, that he Is
young in the business, and that be
gives the old rebel yell before the
party Is out of the woods. Therefore
they hold his coat-tails and beg him
not to turn "commissary to the ene
mies of the Democracy." If this
thing continues, the Democratic party
will become a great coat-tail holding
organization, because Senators La
mar, Coke, and a dozen others are as'
bad as tbesbriekerat Okalona. Their
purpose is as evident, their hatred of
the Union as pronounced, their love
of Jeff Davis as great, and their lan
guage as offensive.
Syraouse Journal: The late act of
Mr. Emerson, of forbidding the hold
ing of the funeral servioes of Dr.
Brown in the Presbyterian church at
Helena, on the grounds that the de
ceased was a member of the Universa
list ohurch, has been the cause of sis
or seven members leaving that church
and probably some more will leave.
We fear that Mr. Emerson has badly
hurt the ohurch by this act, as it is
utterly condemned by all the people
around Helena, whether church
members or not.
