Osborn, a deservedly popular y rang attorney of Brownville, is a can d.J.ite for the State Legislature. He is well known, and his ability, and moral worth unquestioned; and in our opinion, tlie voters of the county can not do lcU.er than give hint universal suffrage, as we believe lie would serve his constituents faithfully and well. Sheridan Post. Hon. Church Howe was flying around the city Tuesday morning; and had posters struck for tlie Republican meetings at Howard and Sheridan. He has engaged the Sheridan cornet band to be at Howard at the meeting on the 16th. Howe doesn't do things by halves, and if he isn't throwing grave! into the faes of his opposition, we are mistaken. Covered wasows going back oast ward from the drouth regions of north w estern Kansas and soulh est em Ne braska, are quite numerous at present, A man with his family in tlie city just from Jewell county, Kansas, says he left his homestead a few weeks ago forever, after a trial of three years; and that when lie left, his farm was as barren of vegetation as the street. On Friday evening the Republi cans will have n good meeting at Sher idan, which will be addressed by T. L. Schick, Esq., Col. Sam Ricb and Hon. Church Howe. "We warrant they will do justice to the cause. The Guards of Brownville and a number of others will go to Sheridan on that occasion.

On the outside of this issue we have thestoryofthecapture interviews and parts of confessions of old Bender and wife, compiled from tlie elaborate statements made through the Omaha Kansas City and other dailies, believ ing it will be interesting reading to many of our readers wbo have not ac cess to the daily general news. Old man Bender as well as the obi woman has made confessions which leave not the least doubt that two of the fiends of Cherryvale are at last in a fair way of meeting their just deserts. We learn that John and Kate Bender have been found and will be forth coming when wanted. In our next issue Ave will give further full particulars cov ering every, feature ot interest.

Furnas, w!h expressed to us yester day a basket of fine Hartford grapes, from his farm at Brownville. We en joyed tlMJ fragrance for a few minutes and the flavor we left for our sick chief. Lincoln Journal. Gov. Furnas can raise good grapes and we are here a living witness of the fact. The train from Brownville this noon brought in a fine basket of grapes marked "Glebe," and on the opposite side of the shipping tag we read: "With compliments of the Furnas ior tion of the Furnas Howe fix up." Thanks. LiiuxAn Globe. The call for a Republican county coavention appears in our colums. We suggest to the Republicans of this couifty to nominate their most energetic and wide awake men for the Senate and House. There is one, and proba bly more, old windbrokeu, spavined, sleepj political hacks asking tlie nom ination. For the Lord's s;ike don't touch them. They have been on the track two or three times, and they can't run worth a cent. Shove them to one side, and put up vigorous,active, com petent Republicans who have energy, and friends to rally around and elect them. We do not want any gawky drones this time we want, and will have, o00 majority if we nominate live good men. Hon. John C. Watson of Otoe, will be his own successor as district attor ney for this -second judicial district. Mr. Watson has made an excellent of ficial ; he has done his whole dut to the district, has worked earnestly to right wrong and uphold justice and has the universal respect of both the bar ami the people of the district Success to Mr. Watson as his own suc cessor. Platistnoutlt Enterprise. We knew that "Mr. Watson has made an excellent official." We knew that "lie has donehis whole duty." We knew he "has the universal respect of both the bar and the people of the dis trict." But we luidn't found out yet that "Hon. John C. Watson of Otoe will be his own suceessor." There are very few people who knew that posi tively until the Enterprise told them. Several gentlemen who are candidates for district attorney never dreamed that the thing was settled. But now, as our esteemed coieniporary says without equivocation, qualification or mental reservation that Mr. Watson "mill be his own successor," those can didates will please retire from the track and not be foolin' their time away. J.L.Mitchell. Escr.. of Nebraska City addressed the Garfield and Arthur club in this city on last Thursday evening. The opera house was well filled with voters of the different par ties, and quite a number of ladies were present. Mr. Mitchell's speech was a most masterly and convincing one was logical and truthful, and 11k points were so sharp and direct that the few sorelieads and copperheads present writhed under tlie castigsitiou, wldle the Republicans applauded. Wo have not time nor space to give a synopsis of the speech, which would be unnec essary if we had, for puffs are not what is wanted these times so much as good, hard, telling blows for Garfield and victory, which Mr. Mitchell is so competent to give. The Nebraska City Republican Glee Club, composed of Messers. Stowell, Hatton, Mutton, Huckinsand Brown, splendid singers, came down with Capt M and enthus ed everybody with several of their choicest songs. The audience tender ed them its most hearty thanks, and would be glnd to meet them again ere the campaign closes. L00AL1PEES0JTALS. ProtW. Eich, Principal of the Falls City High School, is in this city. Mrs. Sina Morris is visiting tins week with Mrs. C. M Haydren at Lon don. Hi.

T. of the order of Good Templars will be with Brownville lodge on next Frida' evening. Will Conyes would have gone to Lincoln this morning to see Barnum, but the train left before he was out of bed. Too bad Will. Hon. Church Howe and S. A. Os born, Esq., are advertised to speak at Union school house, Howard, on Monday evening lGth inst. Judge J. S. Stull went to Lincoln Mondav to attend the meeting of the 2d judicial district central committee, and roturoed Tuesday evening. H the fellow who stole the collar off Harve McGee's little dog, will re turn the same and get the reward, there will be no questions asked. Hon. H. C. Lett and family, and goods, went to Lincoln, their new home. Wednesday this week. Wo re gret the leaving of this estimable fami ly, and wish them prosperity. David Adams, formerly with H. C Lett, in the drug business, tliis city, is now ably filling the place vacate! by Edward Dort, with W. H. McCreery. Mr. Dort goes to Pawnee City. Mr. Edward Ponn, a very prom ising young man of this city, took the train Wednesday morning for .Platts mouth, where he will take a situation in the B. & M. shops. We bespeak for Ed. many friends wherever he may go. On the night of the 0th inst, the residence of Mr. Wesley Penny on the Missouri river lwttom, two miles below this city, was burned down with near ly its entire contents. A subscription paper to help this deserving family, is circulated, and the donations are quite liberal. Gov. Furnas is invited by the Garfield and Arthur club at Juniata, to address the people at that place on Saturday next, at Avhich time there will be a grand rally and pole raising. A prior engagement to speak on the same day at another point will prevent an acceptance of the Juniata invita tion. The many friends of C. L. Swope, formerly a resident of this county, near Nemaha City, will be gratified to leam that he is now finishing his plain and ornamental penmanship at the Jacksonville Commercial College. Ex pecting to make the art a profession, C. L. will soon be among our best pen men. Judge Stull returned from Lincoln Tuesday evening. He informs us the Republican 2d judicial convention was called to meet at Lincoln on the 31st inst day before the assembling of the State convention. Nemaha county was given ten votes in the district con vention. Judge Stull did excellently in securing fair representation for his county. Mr. Charles Body, and family de parted this week for Fairmont where they will reside in the future, Mr. Body engaging in the butchering business. Mr. and Mrs. Body have a host of friends here who bid them farewell with heartfelt regrets. He desired to carry on his business as a butcher and being pledged, when he sold out his in terest in that business to his brother, not to engage in it again here, is the cause of his seeking a new locality. Charley, may good luck attend you. . It is with sincere regret, that we are called upon to chronicle the depar ture of the Hon. H. C. Lett and fami ly, from our midst to their new home in Lincoln, Neb. They leave here a host of warm friends whose best wishes for their future happiness and prosperity follow them; and we heartily com mend them to the citizens of Lincoln, as a valuable addition to their society, and as faithful workers in every pub lic enterprise for good. On Tuesday eveningprevious to their departure, a number of their friends met them in the parlors of the Marsh House, to bid them good-bye ; an d spent an hour in social converse, he relating reminiscenses of the twenty years of their residence, Avith us, and in regrets and well wishes. During the evening the band serenaded them, and, in re sponse to the Kills of the friends, both inside the house and out, Mr. Lett made a few remarks; expressing for himself and family, their thanks for the courtesies shown them, and the hope, that the prosperity of Brownville and his own business interests would soon justify their return to Brownville and Brownville friends. The best wishes of The Advertiser for their prosperity, goes with them.

Also, he showed up the record of the Demo cratic party in the past in a masterly manner, using arguments that no Dem ocrat could gainsay. The club had a good accession to its numbers, and will soon show up one of the largest and most enthusiastic clubs in the county, receiving 23 new names last evening.

A Quincy, HI., correspondent says he was shown correspondence Friday, between Henry Boot, President of tlie Quincv, Missouri and Pacific railroad, now a branch of the Wabash, St. Louis and Pacific, and Solon Humphreys and A. L. Hopkins, of the Wabash. from which the following facts are gleaned: Work on the westeni extension of the Quincy, Missouri and Pacific from Aiiiau wm begin fceptemoer l. it is not fully determined whether the road will go on the line surveyed through Trenton or through Bethany. It de pends greatly on encouragement re ceived." The correspondence reveals the fact, not heretofore made public, that at the same time that work is to begin on the west end, a new line from Quincy eastward, crossing the Wabash about Mt Sterling, running on to Beardstown, thence to a point on the Peoria, Pekin and Jacksonville some where about Chandleville, giving the Wabash a short line and easy grades to Chicago. It is further shown that the objective point on tho west is not a Ioint on the Missouri river, but Ft. Kearney, making an air line east and west from where it strikes the Peoria, Pekin and Jacksonville to Ft. Kearney. Mr. Amos Green, who has charge of the work of extension, has orders to have the surveyors have everything ready for active work by Septomber 1. This would make a short Eastern con nection for the Union Pacific with the Wabash. THE 3IO. IOWA &. NEB. R. R. The Rock Port Journal last week has the following: We learn from various sources that theserveyors of the Missouri, Iowa and Nebraska Railroad, are in Nodaway county, running a line from Hopkins in the direction of the Missouri river. At last account they were near Con ception, aiming towards Dawson, the first station north of Burlington Junc tion on the Wabash, St. Louis and Pacific. It was the original intention to make the western terminus of this road at the Missouri river opivosite Brownville. and since the road has be come the property of the Wabash line it does not seem improbable that this is still the object. Another thing tends to confirm this lelief: Work on the ex tension of the Q. M. & P., which is also owned by the Wabash, has been order ed and if it runs through Nodaway county on the original survey, will strike the Wabash road "at Stanberry and leave it near Dawson, thus forming a junction of the three lines, all under one and the same control. Hence it will be seen that one line from this common jKrint west to the Missouri river, and on to Ft Kearney, will answer all purposes, and give the Wabash comiwinj' a western out-let for its sys tem of roads. Our people should think of these things, and, if necessay, take some action in relation thereto. I0MD01T. Lot all who care for the welfare of this republic, beware how they vote for Hancock. Republicans, do you not think Thos. Majors is just the man for that office? "That one-horso Campbellite preacher.' What a fool a person can make of himself if lie tries. The Christian preachers stand in the very first ranks of pulpit orators, and that "Campbellite Garfield" can toll you some stubborn truths in the pulpit, as well as on the floor of the Senate. Bet ter for your own credit to hush up that idiotic cry. The Christians will hold their county meeting in London the last Lord's day in this month, August 2tth, in tlie grove on the Harding place dur ing the day, and at the meeting house at night. "Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord for they do rest from their labors, and their works do follow them." Another beautiful soul has passed to its home in aradise; anoth er noble woman has made a good rec ord on earth, and passed to her reward. Mrs. Fannie H. August, at her resi dence in Brownville, after a sliorl ill ness of one week, departed this life August 3d, for the higher ami better one. She was a woman of great force of character, and fought successfully the battle of life; however hard the struggle, she conquered and kept above the level. England was the place of her birth, but in early life she sought the shores of America where sle has been a useful citizen, up to the time of her departure. She was a christian in theory, yet more beautifully expressed in a christian life. She gave to the poor; she visited the sick; she spoke evil of no one. To sum up in tlie lan guage of the Master, of a Woman of old, "She hath done what she could." Her neighbors held her in high respect; her friends deeply loved her; enemies she had none. Many are the nHsmories fondly and gratefully cherished, we hear expressed, by those who kneitf her long and well. Much heartfelt grief we hear expressed at the departure of this their dear friend and sister. To her companion this is a heavy blow. It is a severe trial to give up tlie counsel and companionship of his noble and faithful wife. But all events of life, however sad, may be made to contrib ute to our good, and may this bereave ment tend to direct his tlioughts and affections to the high and holy relation ship in the heavenly world. This blow comes with crushing weight on the daughter tlie invalid of many years and who has passed through sore trials, this mother has leen the tried friend, and comforter through all ; but even now dear sister faint not for there is strength sufficient for you. "Esirth has no sorrows, which heaven cannot heal." Human sympathy may fall like balm upon the wounded spirit, but it is only the consolations from the Father in heaven through the Christ, our elder brother, that can heal the broken heart. May these consolations be abundantly administered to all the mourning friends of this departed sister. Again, friends, are we admonished of our mor tality. It is but a few days ago we ex changed friendly greetings at London with Mrs. August, at the grave of Father Empson. As we look down in to the grave of our neighbors, we know . nt ho" soon the sods must fall upon our couui. Let us be ready for the call. STATBntt.ATTEBSv '""33? j-r. ." j Lincoln Globe: Is it legal for the clerk of the Supreme Court to- collect of every attorney who may be admitted to practice in that court a fee of $2.59? And does the Supreme Court know that this is the practice? The Lincoln Democrat says the recent murder at Tecumseh was polit ical and committed by lending Repub licans. This falsehood causes the CJiteftain to casually remark that the editor of the Democrat is an infamous liar, and the Chieftain, guessed it the first time. Beatrice Courier: The Nemaha County Granger rommds one of a small boy with a pop gun in its advocacy of Hancock. The truth is tlrat this pa per has.been a hypocrite so long that it could not be true if it wanted to. Tecumseh Chief tain: Twonty five carloads of long-horned cattle di rect from Texas, were unloaded at Sterling, last Mondav nisrht Thev will live on some of the surplus corn . tL7 of Johnson county this winter. Tecumseh lias not a saloon now and this is to her credit. Tecumseh Chieftain : Captain Bryant has purchased a Iiay press, and will engage in pressing ami si lipping hay to the far west Success to you Cap., in your new enterprise. Rum, it is sakl, was tlie' cause of the downfall of the defaulting treasur er of Franklin county. The defalca tion amounting to $2,000. The ChPftain speaking of put ting in a new mill dam at Tecumseh says the -water in the Nemaha was a dam site lower than it ever was before. Hastings KebrasJcan: The at tack of Rosownter over his own signi ture in the Bee, on Mr. Dawes, is as un called for as it will be peurile. Mr. Rosewater and the Bohemian paper wihcu ne quotes, uraw on ineir imag ination for their facts. The Columbus convention was under no obligation to Rosey, nor were the delegates elected with the understanding that he was to be placed on tho National Committee. On the contrary the convention was decidedly opposed to the editor of the Bee, personally, and muda no secret of the fact. Lincoln Globe: If you want to know what fine grapes can be raised in Nebraska, go and see those at Thom as Sewell's. They are raised at the nursery "Evergreen Home," of ex Governor Furnas, at Brownville, and fresh supplies are received every day. The Bloomington Aryus says, Table Rock via.

The new apportionment will give old Otoe but one senator and two re resentatives unless Otoe semis men to the legislature smart enough to get more in the grand tussle, sure to take place when the time comes. Ntbraska City News. The representative and senatorial, districts of tlie State, if tliey consider their own interests, will semi to the next legislature their best and most able men. And counties that neglect this will come out at the little end of the horn. The Lincoln Globe's point against Auditor Leidtke is certainly not well taken. In pocketing tho insurance fees received by him he appears to be hon est and sincere; has, and cites, prece dents which while they may not be sustaining entirely, gives him very reasonable ground for doing as lie has done. We can see no intent of embez zlement, but think we clearly see that the worst feature of the case that can be made against him is a misconstruc tion of the law. From the auditor s actions and defense mndeby his letters, we must believe he has acted with no dishonest motive or intention, but in accordance with law as he understands it, and that if the Supreme Court de cides against him he will cheerfully submit as an honest man and crood officer shoukl. and promptly place the funds in dispute where tliey belong un der the judgment of the court. It is said that ex-Gov. Garber is afflicted with consumption and cannot live long. The Lincoln Democrat says "Eng lish's letter of acceptance is consid erably too long. Candidates for vice president need not be so windy." How about Hancock's letter to Sherman? Is it essential that little Generals in tlie army should be so windy?" Nebraska City Press: The music al convention which was in session during last week, in Plattsmouth, un der tlie able leadership of Prof. D. B. Worley, closed with a grand concert on Saturday evening, hekl in Fitzgerald's Hall. The audience was large, intelli gent and appreciative, and the concert was in every way a success. A few days ago Mr. B. F. nollo- way, a farmer near Dunbar, Otoe county, descended into a well, and be fore he could be got out died from the effects of tlie foul air in the well. He was about 0 years obi and had been a citizenof Otoe for about nine years. STotice Is hereby given that I will examine all jersos who may desire to offer themselves as candidate for teachers of tlie primary or common schools of this county, at the Court House, in Brownville on the first Saturday in each month.

Oredit iToHlier.- Editor Advertiser: , . I have written two letters to siwrit that the Granger was misrepremnfiag facts in the Credit Mobilior against Gen. Garfield, mid I shown conclusively that tlie whole af fair is a mere tissue of partisan lying which the most prominent and : able Democrats denounce. I that tho Granger's first charge fraud aud its second perjury, which loads the editor to say: "We inadejMi charge but simply published what found in the official records and ; Republicans to tell what it an admission that he has the meanaeM to insinuate what he has not tlie cour age to charge. I showed firstthat tke committee did find that Garfield was not guilty of "any impropriety or evn indelicacy" in reference to the matter of the Credit Mobilier stock, and sec ondly that Ids veracity had been also triumphantly vindicated by his-coiwrtat-iiency in four subsequent elections to high positions where those charges were met and discussed. These facts have so completely dis posed of the editor of the Granger tliafc he last week had recourse to the usual refuge of all tveak minds abuse, a xe treat in which he is secure from me. I will add in reference to that par tion of the charge which he has" now three times published, that it is upoa a matter wholly collateral to tho ques tion before the committee; tltnt the committee find that there is nothing in the facts of the case calling for any recommendation. The issue which they were trying was whothor he wae guilty of fraud, not of perjury. Wheth er tliere was in fact a sale or not, w whether tlie $820 business was- a taut or payment of dividends were disputed questions, of fact. The committae simply assumed the least favorable state of facts for Gen. Garfield, for the purose of showing that in any event there was no ground of accusation against liim, a thing which it is not at all unusual to do. Whether he did or did not buy tho stock and take the div idend tvas in the opinion of the com mittee wholly immaterial since to constitute guilty action, there must he guilty intent. To break the force of my roply that Garfield lias been vindicated by the voice of his constituency, he makes tlie transparent statement that Garfield's majority in 1ST4 was lees than in 1S72. Any man with putty brains ought to know that 1ST4 was tho "off yanr' in politics, and tliat tho difference was not one of majorities, but one of ag gregate votes cast. Now I must be excused from impos ing on your generosity by repeating my arguments every time tho Granger calls for them, ne repeats a large number of questions which have all been disposed of in theseveml letters I have written. He is either so grout a fool that he does not know when he is answered, or so much of a knave that he will hot admit it. As to many of his profound interrogatoried, I liave only to say that it "takes a fool to nek questions that a wise man can not answer." GAUErKi.r) and Victory. BARGAINS! BARGAINS!
