James A. Gakfield was nominated

307 votes; Grant, 311; Blaine, 42.
On. "Wednesday, just before going to
press we receive the news that C. A.

for YicePresident You may ask who.

of thing, but you may bet that Arthur
will poll more votes in Xew York,

any other man could. He'll hold level

"We do not profess to have extraor
dinary political sagacity, but from the
beginning of the heated "Grant boom,"
we thought we saw the certain defeat
of Gen. Grant. In the issue -of The
Advertiser of February- 2Gth we
said":
The "third term"" argument is croimr
to beat Grant. Notwithstanding that
argument is a pettifogging hobby, it
will beat Grant at the convention or
the election. The Republicans cannot
afford to go into the next campaign
with "third term" on their shoulders.
Let such papers as the Chicago Inter
Ocean ponder well this proposition be-fore-tbey
force-the party to meet the
"third term" issue.
We are satisfied with his defeat, and
regret only that his friends persisted
in. courting it. "We are satis
fied thafrGarfield will unite the strength
of the party better than Grant could
have done it.

The following sketch is from: am
Inter-Ocean editor, of the appearance
of Mr. Garfield in the convention, with
a glimpse at his past private life:.
GARFIELD.
In the center of the main aisle sits
the man whose speech putting John
Sherman in nomination thousands are
impatiently waiting. Immense in stature,-.
Garfield's favorite attitude is in
sitting-hanging-his legs over any -Ton-venient
rest, or holding his-knees with
his hands, is still such as to-remind one
of a big schoolboy. His eyes are cold
gray, and" yet they look about now
with a kindly expression. Of a factr
Garfield Is a man ef big heart and an
affectionate nature. Among the dele
ft tas ona from Kansas and one from
Mississippi are at least two old pupils-
of Garfield when He wasascnooimasier
in Ohio, while among the spectators
are many who have known him both
as.teacher and college chum, and these
neves-Ore of telling of the big, gener
ous nature they learned to love, and of
the manner in. which- the boys who
prnpA Latin of nim idolized him as
the friend as weliasjnstructor of their
youth. He seems no longer a l)oy when
occasions arise for -hhn to make his
voice "heard in the convention. Then
Jiis'appearance; standingin a chair f nil
beforo the- convention, with-the slow
utterance of words "that iotit Ting and
burn is simply a grand assertion of
the h-overeigntyof mind. Garfield and
Conkling are perhaps the two best rep
resentatives of 'every1 one's ideal of a
f.fmnn's' annearance that? can be
found'in the convention.
Conkling.
A correspondent gives this picture
of the great "New York Senator, at the
Convention:
Conkling never looked more com
plaisant as he sits in his seat at the
.head of the faithful yet from New
York, who seem to watch- with the
keenest interest every movement of
their leader, and he has only to turn
his head to attract the attention of ev
ery one of them. "We shall see Conk
ling in action soon, but we may observe
him at rest, calm but alert, and the
picture now it must seem to everyone,
and to none more than his enemies, of
a grand reserve of power. Conkling is
most frequently described as a man of
proud and arrogant bearing as a
despot in disposition and a prince in
his bearing. The impression which he
makes upon the thousands who are
now intently regarding him is probab
ly a confirmation of its accuracy. Dor
sey, Clayton, McKee, Green B. Raum
and other leaders of the Grant forces
scattered throughout the hall come
frequently to him with whispered
questions, and he answers always with
the decisiveness of a general, and not
infrequently with an impatience in
speech and motion that would become
a monarch. His discipline is splendid,
and his leadership so perfect that no
one questions if, and what superficial
observers call the arrogance of egotism
may be more truthfully described, per
haps, as the consciousness of the power
which the verdict of all judgment must
concede to him. Proud as he may be;
he does not scorn to wear upon the
lapel of his coat the insigna of devo
tion to his own leader. He is the most
observed of all the men of fame upon
the floor. Men who are his enemies
even pay the tribute of admiration for
the splendid type of manhood which
he embodies, and the ladies, looking
down from the galleries look for "fchat
curl," and observe with regret that the
top of his head is growing bald.
1L E. Church Statistics.
The following extract from the pre
siding Bishop's address at the late
General Conference at Cincinnati, is
replete with information, and will be
of interest to many of our good readers :
The statistics for 1S75 show 10,923
traveling preachers, 12,881 local preach
ers and 1,580,559 members including
probationers. The statistics for 1879
show 11,030 traveling preachers, 12,575
local preachers, and 1,700,302 members
and probationers. This exhibit gives
an increase in the four years of 713
traveling preachers, and 119,745 mem
bers; and a decrease of 406 local preach
ers. This general increase, though not
so large as during the preceding quad
rennium, is nevertheless gratifying and
encouraging to the Church. We must
also take into consideration that dur
ing that time there have died 512
traveling preachers and 78,520 mem
bers. These must be added to the in
crease of four years to show the actual
number of members which had been
received. While we have lost that
number from the Church militant, we
rejoice that the Church triumphant
lias- gained, and the great mission of
the Church, has- been accomplished, in
so many precious souls, nearly all of
whom have, as we have good reason to
believe, died in peace. In 1S75 there
were io,U33 emirch edifices and 5,017
parsonages, valued at SS1,0S1,862. In
1879 there, were 16,955 churches and
5,689 parsonages; valued at $70,955,509.'
This shows an increase in the number
of churches of 1,322, or more than one
church for every working day in the
four years; and an increase of 672 par
sonages, or more than one for every
two working days in the same period.
The estimated value, however, instead
of being increased has been diminished.
This results from a change in the price
of real estate throughout the land. The
number of new churches and parson
ages will not show the full work of the
Church, for during that period many
churches have been remodeled, enlarged
arid rebuilt.
The new bishops are Henry W. War
ren, D. D., of Philadelphia; Cyrus D.
Foss, D.D., of Wesleyan university;
John F. Hurst. D. D., LL. I)., of Drew
Theological Seminary ; and E. O. Haven,
D. D., LL. D., of Sjracuse university.
Wo don't like to give away a brother,
but when-a newspaper man writes a
thing like this: "The scene was lighted
up with a gorgeous glow, then things
heavenly began to grow dim in the
gathering-shade of twilight. The time
and place were calculated to bring the
soul into a meditative mood (just as
though a newspaper man ever had
such a mood) and fit it to receive the
inspirational teachings from the heav
enly world."
The above was the kind, of copy our
Brownville Advertiser came
wrapped in last week. If we had the
balance of the copy, somewhere toward
its' close- it would read ; "Looking down
from glory where we tread the heaven
ly streets paved with gold, we can see
the balance of you Nebraska editors
and your devils, still laboring and
racking your brains with political edi
torials and the common thintrs of life.
when, if you had done as we did, drink

run your paper better than yourself,
'cheese it; we are out of the mire and

gates acted most perfidious is a fact,
outside the question as to'whetnerGen.
Grant ought to have been nominated
or not The following extract from the
proceedings of the New York conven
tion shows that they were not only in
structed, but that they spoke in the
convention, personally pledging them
selves to sustain the instructions:
Senator Woodin said, in response to
an inquiry as to whether he would ob
serve the instructions of the conven
tion: "I SHOULD FEEL MYSELF DIS
HONORED IF I ACCEPTED A TRUST FROM
THIS CONVENTION AND THEN BETRAY
ED IT."
General Woodford arose and said
that if Messrs. Schroeder and Dagget
would rise in their places and declare
that they would support the nomina
tion of Gen. Grant he would not move
to substitute other names r if they did
not do so, he would move a minority
report. He had been informed that
Messrs. Schroeder and Daggett had de
clared that they could not go to Chica
go for Grant After a sharp fight, Sen
ator Schroeder was permitted to ad
dress the convention. He said he con
sidered it an insult to the integrity of
General Daggett and himself for Gen.
Woodford to insinuate that they would
not obey the instructions of the con
vention; they agreed with Senator
Woodin that no man should accept a
trust from the convention and then be
tray it After Senator Schroeder had
made his explanation, General Wood
ford apologized for misunderstanding
his position, and cordially approved of
Messrs. Schroeder and and Daggett as
delegates.
The Grant men of the country have
most assuredly good reason for claiming
that but for the deception and treach
ery of delegates Grant would havebeen
nominated upon the first ballot

IETTER FROM E0ME.
Rome, Italy, April 28, 1880.
My Dear Brother. According to
promise, I write you. We arrivedhere
one week ago, perfectly delighted at the
reality of being in the world renowned
Rome.
The city has no suburbs, for miles,
before entering, the country looks per
fectly desolate. r
The city is quite large and there is a
great amount of wealth. I-iave seen
some of the most handsome "torn
outs" andalsp some of the most-degraded
looking people I ever saw in any
life.
The Tiber is a small, muddy stream,
which would be scarcely noticed in
our country.
The stores and shops'are quite small,
the greater part being show windows.
The streets are very narrow and
seem to be made after the fashion of a
cork-screw, with sidewalks wide
enough for one. There are a few broad
streets and good sidewalks in the new
est part of the city. The houses are
made of stone or stucco, five or six sto
ries high, usually with flat roofs, all the
roofs being tiled. They have no yards.
The houses are built in such a way as
to form a square between the bouses.
The shops all indicate that they live
principally off of the tourist such as
the sale of pictures, jewelry, relics, etc.
April 29th. One week ago last night
Rome celebrated her birthday by illu
minating the Coliseum and the Forum
with bengal lights. Each arch shown
with a different light, red, blue, or
green, as the light of the sun. I shall
never forget its wonderful beauty. I
only wish I could tell you how the
grand old Coliseum stood out in a per
fect halo of glory. We were all in per
fect ecstacies. There were crowds of
people there, the most quiet and order
ly set I ever saw. When we passed
from the Coliseum to the Forum there
was no pushing and crowdings as would
have been the case in America.
The Coliseum once called' the Fla
rian Amphitheater is a tfrarrotunda
four stories high. Its circiuaference
is 1,641 feet; its length, 287 ; it width,
182 ; its height, 157. It is said that 12,:
000 captive Jews were employed in this
work. The whole building is said to
have contained 100,000 people. "Had
rian gave a series of entertainments in
honor of his birthday, with the slaught
er of a thousand beasts, including a
hundred lions and as many lionesses.
One magical scene was the representa
tion of forests, when the whole arena
became planted with trees, shrubs and
flowers; to complete the illusion the
ground was made to open and send
forth wild animals from yawning clefts,
instantly recovered with bushes." I can
almost imagine I see the greatgladia
tors, with their 100,000 audience-eagerly
watching them, as I see these great
walls in their glloomy grandeur.
April 30. Yesterday we visited St.
Peterfor the fourth time; went to the,
top of the dome which is 413 fyet from
the pavement, and saw Rome,,pn her
seven hills. St. Peters is exceedingly
interesting. Its immense marble pil
lars, statues, mosaics, chapejs, each
large enough for an ordinary ' church,
and its beautiful altars, all imjress you
as nothing else does. The church is
built where Peter was supposed to be
martyred, although good authority says
he never was in Rome. The high altar
containshis sarcophagus wherj twenty
four lamps are kept constantly burning.
At the right is a large ivory "throne on
which Peter is seated, in bronze. His
great toe, of his left foot, is vorn per
fectly smooth by people kissing it It is
really pitiful to see them. Wl saw the
stairs which Luther started to ascend
on his knees, but arose an independent
man. As we stood there we saw many
people, some of them well dressed, go
ing up on their knees, kissing the steps
as they ascended. I scarcely knew
whether to laugh or cry. The streets
are full of priests; every place you turn
you see them by the hundreds. There
are a great many monks who wear a
heavy brown robe with a rope tied
around their waists, no stockings, and
a skull cap. They look perfectly horrid.
We were greatly interested in the old
Roman Forum. As the present city
has been built over the old, the Forum
has only been found by digging away
the new down into it. This is the scene
of some of the most important .histori
cal events. Here all the laws were-
made ; here Julies Ceaser was killed ;
here Mark Antony made his celebrated
speech. The Forum contains, among
other relics, the temple of Saturn con
sisting, now, of eight columns; about
all the rest of the temple is gone. 'The
arch of Septimius Sevcrns, andimniedij
ately below, in the corner, the colon
ades of the twelve gods. The base walls
of the temple of Ceasar, every spot on
which you tread, has some historical
interest. The ruined columns, broken
and lying scattered about, all speak
volumes of the past
We have visited the church of the
monks, where they are buried in soil
brought from Jerusalem. As there is
not room for all, the one who has been
buried the longest is taken up and set
in the corner, in full view and the last
one is put in his place. So you see
them seated about generally and the
walls covered with "their bones, ar
ranged into all kinds of artistic shapes.
There are five rooms arid 8,000 bones.
This place is called the enamel house
of the Capricins. .v
We are all well excepting brother,
who is troubled greatly with his eyes,
from a cold. He sends love and says I
can write and he will send you some
views of Rome.
We are thinking of going to Naples
Monday and remain a week or two,
then return here and remain a week
longer; then we shall go to Switzer
land during the warm weather.
We sail the 21st of August, reaching
America about the 1st of September

Some cases of chills and fever.
The basket meeting last Sunday
was well attended and went off very
pleasantly.
Elder Rowe "preached the word"
with hfs usual power and eloquence,
his oratory and eloquence is somewhat
after the John B. Gough style. You
are taken from the ridiculous to the
snblime so suddenly that before the
smile vanishes from your face, the
tears start. One moment you sneer
and turn with contempt from the earth
ly creeds of men, the next with un
sandaled feet, .and uncovered head, you
bow with reverence, before the majesty
of the heavenly creed of God.
If you want to see how you look
in a picture, just hand your photo to
A. J. Rose and after while he will
bring you an "awful pretty" picture of
yourself. Just try it
Last Saturday afternoon a wind
storm raged here. The lofty old trees
bowed and swayed, and huge branches
were torn off and hurled around, and
leaves were stripped off and strewn
about like the autumn time. Many
fruit trees were blown down, and corn
in some places much damaged. The
storm raged in its greatest fury for
about six hours.
Next Sunday half past 3 o'clock,
P. M., Mr. Richardson and wife, will
be "buried with Christ in baptism, and
rise to walk in a new life." If there
are any others who want to confess
the Christ and put Him on in baptism,
they can then have an opportunity.
"Here is water, what doth hinder me
from being baptised." "If thou be
lievest with all thy heart that Jesus is
the Christ, thou mayest" The grave
of waters will be at the place of Rich
ard Kesterson. Elder Rowe will talk
to the people about ihe "things concern
ing the kingdom, then recieve those
persons through the waters of baptism
into it where we pray they will work
and worship faithfully until theMaster
calls them to the beautiful City.

medical discovery which is of great
importance. It appears that Dr. L. E.
Keeley, of Dwight, 111., has found a
positive cure for drunkenness in the
double chloride of gold. This will be
startling news to the medical profes
sion and will no doubt create quite a
stir amongst them. The Doctor has
not lost a single1 case that came under
his treatment, and he says he can cure
drunkenness in any stage. Dr. Keeley
is an old army surgeon, and at present
is surgeon of the C. & A. R. R. If his
discovery is what heclaimsitis, he has-
conferred a lasting blessing on suffering
humanity.
The great trouble is, there are so
many who do not want to be cured.
Gov. St. John, of Kansas, has re
turned from a week's trip through
Grove, Wallace, Ellis, and Trego
counties, on the Union branch railroad,
where he went to investigate the ex
tent of the drouth and the probable
amount of suffering thereto. Hefound
the country very dry and many of the
people in a state of destitution. The
wheat crop is an entire failure, and
the earth is without a drop of moisture
in it, no rain having fallen since the
11th of last November. About300,000
pounds of bread and wheat have been
shipped to the sufferers within the last
few weeks, purchased with money
subscribed by Jay Gould, who is anx
ious to protect the settlers along the
line of his road. The railroad company
is furnishinc employment to many of
the farmers and doing much to alleviate
the distress. State Journal.

Very Droll to Thlnlt of.
If not above being taught by a man, use
Dobbin's ElectrloSoap next wash day. Used
without any wash boiler or rubbing board,
and used differently from any other soap ev
er made. It seems very droll to think of o
quiet, orderly two hours' light work on wash
day, with no heat and no steam, or smell of
the washing through the bouse Instead of a
long day's hard work;- but hundreds of
thousands of women from Nova Scotia to
Texas have proved for themselves that this
is done by using Dobblns's Electric Soap.
Don't buy it, however, if too set la your
ways to use It according to directions, that
are as simple as to seem almost ridiculous
and so easy that a girl of 13 years can do a
larce wash without being tired. It positive
