WEDNESDAY, FEB. 7, 1SCG CHICAGO and PL.lTTSMOl'TII The importance uf our connection with Chicago, Ly means of the li is. M. It'. 11. grows .-rronger from the ef forts now being made Ly our thriving hter city, Omaha, to secure iier thare of Chicago inter.-l in one of the nu merous ronds projected across the Stale of Iawa. We riii upon our IJoard of Trade to ioak af:t-r the interests of rialtfmouth in ihM respect, and urge ihem to use their influence in causing work to le commenci d on the west end of the li. & M. K. It as soon as prac- tioable. I: will not d j for our merchants to bo idle on questions that ore of vital imnortance to. iI.mh. Let them put their heads together, and we feel sure that the success that ha? hitherto at- fended their efforts will again crown them in this ma:ter. We cannot stand still we must move, and we must move with a determination to win. Chicago has no finer prospects open to her than those offered by the Pacific IlnilroaJ. The millions of dollars in thi trade of the States and Territories west of us need looking after, and we claim that by way of the B. M. R. It., acd our connection with he Pacific R we offer It. at the lOOih meridian, the' best inducements to be found on lha Missouri river. Should lh Paiiiic road be located in the lie publican. valley, as we fully believe it will, we wi'd have the shorten end most expeditious route between Chicago, Colorado and Utah. Let these facts be made known, and we feel assured Chicago will ba fully awake to their 0 " immense importance to her. Our citizens are awnre of the great advantages of this point, but they should not indulge the foolish notion that by standing still others will be better able to uDDreciate them. We must work we must pull together, and if our busi ness men will take the matter in hand, vre feel satisfied they will make it a r . I I taccess. let me claims ana advanta ges of Piattsinomh be fully understood in Chicago, and the capitalists of that city wni not tail to avail themselves of them. COAL. We hear it rumored that coal has been fouud on the Watson farm, south of ror. 2 do not know anything connected with this discovery, and give it simply as we hear it. lo us this coal question looks thus-wisei The two great axis of upheaval on this continent are th; Rocky mountains and the Ap palachian chain. The igneous rocks protruding at these centers of force ex exeited in past ages, have givpn a curv ilinear form to the intervening rocks ihostf laying east or tiie uocky moun tains dipping generally to the east and south, and those west of the Allegha- oies to the weu and south. Other forces in this immense valley, but they jwe suiitu, uuiupaicu iu me yituici in- iluenceof the twochaias named. About fifty mles east of here, in Iowa, coal is found iu workable teds dipping to the west and so.uh, and we think that, underlying the limestones, on the west ern side of the Missouri, the same for mations can be found. Without meas urements, and basing our estimates on the report of friends, we think it high- ly prohable that coal wiil le found at a depth of 300 feet, whi!o at some dis- tance west of the river it wnl be found nearer the surface. From casual ob- eervations we make ths dip to the east ward about one foot in seven hundred ind ninety-two. Cannot some entwr prising persons be found who will start a baring machine and Wit this coal question thorougly? tOCXTl AI TIIE It. 11. It appears to us that our friends over the river are standing- in their own light; or, in othes'word., thnt they are working in direct opposition to their own interests. They ap;ear to be op- crating on the plan that their swamp lauds are of more benefit 'to them than a railroad would be. W are nm thor eughly, conversant with the difficulty between lhe;n and the Railroad com pany, but know tkat it is some di-puu in relation lo swamp lands. Now, we believe a railroad running through Mills county would enrich the farmers of that county more in one year's time than the entira swamp lands they possess. But some argue that the road will be built upon the same linu anyway, aed that it ii useless to concede anything. to iho company. Admitting this to be true, (al;houli.ive have serious doubt as to the correctness of the argument.) any sensible man can see that this difficulty has a tendency to del;iy operations en the read. Were this trouble disposed of, we doubt not that work would be commenced on this end of the read im mediately. Now, the question for the people of Mills county to deterniiue is which would be of the greatest benefit to them, to have work commenced im mediately upon this end of the railroad, with a certainty of both astern and wes'ern connections at an eariy day, cr to retain their swamp lands, with no certainty of ever having a railroad, cr at least with a certainty that their action in relation to these lauds will delay the .ompletioa l!e: road indefinitely. Let our friends over he. riyer consider this matter, (as we doubt not many of them have.) and see if something can not be done to hasten work upon this end'of the road. The only bearing the (Jliestion has upon us here is in regard to tune; for the road will run from this l it westward, whether it connects east ward direct through Mills county or whether it bears south' to Fremont; but ;. u one of vital Importance to Mill countv, arm one in wniLii tney .-noun. not allow personal feelings to overrule their better judgment. attlxtioa: Let our eastern readers remember that Platismomh is situated at the mouth of the great Platte river, thro jgh the valley of which passes the entire emi- graiion to Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Mou tana, Nevada, California and Oregon; that this is the western terminus of the Burlington & Missouri River Railroad, and the natural outlet to the immense 4 farm in? and mining regions west of us. lue country surrounu-ng us em ..1 j braces the finest farming and grazing lands in Nebraska, and is peopled by ,ie wealthiestfarmers and stock raisers, tu view of these facts, we present the most desirabl location for business men to be found in the west. CREDIT FOXCIEIt. This cirantic swindle has at last been brought to a stand-still by the Gov ernor returning it t3 the llouso without his approval. Never, since the early settlement of the Territory, has such a bare-faced swindle been attempted to be forced upon the people of Nebraska It provides an imaginary capital of im m?nse proportions, gives to a few indi viduals the power to transact an almost unlimited amount and variety of busi ness, and makes no one responsible And yet tne Omaha irossuro wau m: great that only one man in the Counci was found to vote against its passage Hon. J. W. Chapman, and four in the House, viz: Cadman, Chapin, Rarnum and Maxwell. All honor is due these men who stood up for the rights of the people in opposition to the "power be hind the throne"' that was brought to bear for the consummation of this dia bolical outrage. The Governor, too has proved what every one kuew be fore, that no pressure can be brotigh to bear of sufficient magnitude to stifle his keen sense of justice.' Thepeop of Nebraska will remember those who have braved the denunciation of the power at Omaha, neither will they for et those who were foremost in trying inflict this reat swind!e uPon lhem .. . Omaha, Feb. 3J. jn Herald: Uonsiderabie pro gress has been mads tliia week iu ex anJioing the Code, and it is hoped, with close application, that it will be com pleted before thft close cf the session About once a week some Democratic member introduces a memorial oa the negfo suffrage question, the object of which is to make party capital. Rob ertson. of Sarpy, introduced a memo rjai endorsing President Johnson's pol jcv es far as relates to negro suffrage the Union members amended the me morial so as to include his general ad ministration, when quite a number of Democrats voted against it on its pas sage. . . -. ' Present appearances seem to indicate that the Legislature will frame a Cob stituti-jii. I am told that a copy ij abut to be introduced into the Council, and will probably pass. The Governor ta-Jay returned to the House, w ithout his approval, the Credit Foncier Bill- He objects, among "oth- er things,, to the "variety' of ' its busi ness, its unlimited scope, perpetual char ier,, at.d to the unsafe character of some kinoN of its proposed business." I have heard but one expression from the bet ter class of citizens, and that ii that they think more of the Governor than they ever Lave before. When we re member the amount of outside pressure that was brought to bear upon members of both Houses, and that it passed the Council with but one nay, (Chapman.) and the House with but four naysj viz:. Cadman, Chapin, Barnum and Max well, you may imagine the wrath of these who had hoped to make a good thine out of if An attempt will" be made on Monday next to pats k over'' - 4J the veto, but 1 trust this swindle is dead.

IIeralu: In' the House this morning, on ' the journal of Saturday being read, 'Robertson, 'of Sarpy, ob jected to that portion which stated that House File No. 77, "was read a third time and passed," contending that the journal was incorrect, uni that the ques tion was only upon adopting tht; substi tute (endorsing President Johnson) iu place of the original biil. which endors ed his policy cn the negro bujfeage ques tion onlv. After a long discussion on le Democratic side of the House, the Speaker declined to decide. The Union members insisted that he should decide, whereupon he decided that the journals iccre correct.

The decision was sustained. Let no more be heard of Democracy sustain ing the President. Quite a number of bills passed the louse to day, one to equalize the col- ection of taxes in Cass couuty for ISoS, 50 and 'GO. A bill was introduced into the House to day to extend the charter of Platts- mouth over all of fractional section IS, T 12, N of R 11 E, and E 12 of S E 1 and E 1-2 N E 1-4 of Sec 13, T 12 N of It 13 E, and S E 1-4 of S E 1-1 of Sec 12, T 12, R 13 E.aad Sl-2 of S w 1-1 of Sec 7, T 12.

The friends of the Credit Foncier bill are howling over the Governors veto, and a desperate effort wdl be made to-morrow to pass it over his veto. Anon. -5?

Omaha Herald. New York, Feb. o. The steamer Kill von Kuli sunk at the foot of -10th street, North River, yesterday after noon, and abo'tt ono hundred cattle on board of her were cirewned. World's Washington special says the U. S. Consul at Honolulu informs the State Jepartmnt that some seamen cap tured on an American whale-ship by the pirate Shenandoah, and landed on Ascension Island, are en route to ihe United . States. The proper authorities have under consideration th argument of Semmes, the pirate, claiming the right to be dis charged under the Sherman-Johnston parole. A line screw ram, built by Messrs. Laird S" Bros., Liverpool, has sailed from the Mersey, for Valparaiso; she is a sister vessel to the ram now lying in the Thames for the Chilian Govern ment. Notwithstanding the announcement that Baron Milliard had left Paris for the purpose of making arrangements for the return of the French troops from Mexico, it is certain that other orders are yet unrevoked. , New York, Feb. 6. An order was yesterday received from Washiogton for the extradition of George Guslotf, who was hel 1 in tin; try .n a charge of administering poison to McKeunoii,. in Toronto, C V. One ot the U. S. Deputy Marshals will esrort the pris oner and deliver him over to the Cana dian authorities. The World's Washington special ,says it is stated thut our Government has arrived at an understanding with the French government, and that to all intents and purposes the difficulty be tween them is sealed. The French are nbout to 'cave Mexico, and the U. S. Government has waived any iiien tions to enforce ihe Monroe doctrine. There will probabiy be no recognition of Mexico, but there is a pledge ex pressed or implied that the United Sta'es will lake no overt means to de pjse Maximilian and put Juarez or any one else in his place. While it is not likely that formal diplomatic rela tions will be opened with the Empire, a quasi recognition will result from :he prt-sent understanding, that is Consuls will be appointed ar.d employed in their proper position of protecting the trade in Mexico of the United Stales. It is not likely that the trench win . a 1 I1 leave r.iexico teiore tne c;ose oi me year, and while they are going their places will be supplied by Austrian, Belgians, and such Mexicans as accept nc LTmperor BY TELEGRAPH. TO THE DAILY RALD. Latest Despatches. - New Orleans. Feb. 1. An engine exploded on the Jackson Railroad, near a mile from the city, killing three per sons, including Col. I'orm-y, ex'-chief of poiice, and wounding four others. Files cf the Matamoras Ram hero insist that Juarez left El Paso tor Tex as, and that his arrival at San Antonio, before reported and then denied, was desired to Le cuncealnl; also that he brought a great deal of tilvcr for fu lure use.- - : Cortinas left Brownville on the 22d u!t.. for the upper Rio Grande; he re turned and crossed over to a point fif teen miles below MaUmoras, on the 15th inst.,and with Cabicto and his en tire force, 250 strong, left Camargo for some interior Mexican point. Canalles, with a small fjree, left Mier for Victoria, Mexico. He and Escabado are at open variance. Bagdad was abandoned on the 2Gth by the Liberals and United States guards placed there. The Imperial troops re-entered. An English, French and Spanish man-of-war are cruising off the mouth of the Rio Grande. Three Mexican Imperial war vessels are coining from olT Brazos, Santiago, to the mouth of ihe Rio Grande. Gen. Wright's arrival at Brownville is reported. Since the Bagdad affair a better con ditioti of affairs exists at Monterey; business men who had left it for Sal tillo have returned. Nearly all the merchants of Mata- moras, Mexican and foreign, and among the former some prominent Liberals, have published a solemn pro test against the course of the L'nited States army and civil officials on the Texas side, charging them with being responsible for tioubles and outrages on that frontier by aiding partisans of the Juarez party, which at present has no other foothold as a basis of opera tions on this frontier than that alforded by said officials. The protest is very se?ere. Its truth is otlicially certified lo by the vice-consuls of Spain, France, Prussia and Great Lruain, resident at Matamoras. New Vouk, Feb. 2. The Tribune's Washington special says that Major Gen. O. O. Howard has gun1 on hi: lecturing tour through the New Eng land States. He is to receive one huu- dred dollars for each lecture delivered, and the money thus received is to b devoted to the fund accumulated for the erection of the Congregational church in this city. During the absence of the General, which it is not supposed will extend beyond a fortnight, Bug. Gen Charles Howard will have charge of the Bureau The 3J Auditor yesterday decided that in the case of ihe steamer It. R lianion. stied ty L. r. authorities m 1S61, for the transportation of troop from St. Louis to Mobile, and which was blown vn ly torpedoes placed in the coal bin by rebel emissaries, the owners are entitled to th full value of the vessel destroyed. The establish ment of thu as a precedent is of con siderable importance, as a large nu:n ber of vessels were similai ly destroyed during the war. The number of claims received at the office of the 2d Comptroller duriug the month of January last, involved the large sum of S5.550.091. Nj:w Yoiik, Feb. 2. The Herald's Washington special says it may interest persons intending to present claims to the Treasury Department of captured or abandoned property, to know that the Secretary is not considering any cases of the kind in consequence of the pres sure of other duties. No action will be taken by him on these matters at prespnt. New York, Fer. 3. Richard Col burn, sub editor of the New York Tri bune, and Geo. Kuapp, one of the pro prietors of the St. Louis Republican, were arrested on a warrant issued by Judge Dowlimjon complaint of A. T. Stewart. The complaint is founded on certain allegations which appeared in a late number ot ihe St. Louis Repub lican in a letter written by Mr. Colburn, a New York correspondent. In con sequence of the lateness of the hour at which the arrests were made no bail could be found, so both the accused were locked up for the night at the 9:h Precinct station house. Niw York, Feb. 3 The Herald's Toronto dispatch says the Fenians have issued an address to the American brotherhood, adopting the O'Mahoney fituion, declaring ihe true and only ob ject of-the movement to be the freedom of Ireland, and denouncing the propo sition tc go to Ireland by the way of Carmda. ' The Tribune's Washington special says nothing ot'Iicial has been received at the Navy department in regard to the U. S. steamer Narcissus, reported lost otf the coast of Florida. The tug Jessamine about the lime it is reported the Narcissus left, and it is probable that she is the unfortunate vessel. Nothing detinue, however, is known. New York, Feb. 3. The Tribune's Washington special says that letters have just been received from Paris confirming in every important particu lar the information concerning the in tentions of the Emperor of France to withdraw his fores from Mexio with ! int! j, t poS:.ible dtlay, demanding nothing of the United fctaies uoveru r.ient except that it remain neutral be tween the belligerent parties. Accord- j ing to assurances frequently g-iven and I 1 j reiterated during- the last three yearfr i Emreror of France doev not ask j for recognition of Maximilhan, nor in sist upon any other treaty stipulations. The statement '.hst n commission for tL iriul of the pirate Seannes bad been ordered by the Navy department is in correct. He will be tried for piracy. bu- there are- several other charges and " specifications urnier advisement by thp proper authorities, and ihe result of iheir deliberations wi.l not be made for several days. There are several specifications , in the charges against Semmes which require vlre must care ful consideration, as His conviction on them would establish a precedent which might operate to the detriment of the country in Mure wars with foreign na lions. The Herald's Vera Cruz corresi on- dent ys arrangements are being made fur the withdrawal of the French troops, and the soldiers will leave the country is soon as their term of service expires. The rebels in the country are being disgusted with the Freucb, and are re turning to the Southern States. About thirty thousand arms for the Imperialists recently arrived at Vera Cruz, but were condemned and sent back. Thus fnr not an acre of land has been allotted to emigrants, except to a colony of discharged Imperial troops. A few American families who name to the country, induced by die flowing ad dress of Maury Sc Co., have expended their last dollar and are in a pitiable condition. New- York, Feb. 5. Gen. Spinner, on Saturday, mailed to Europe for col lection, three captured drafts for 50 each, drawn by Co! Harr'son, of Jeff Davis' military family, to the order of Secretary Trenholm, and by him en dorsed, upon Brown, Shipley 6c Co., the rebel bankers in Liverpool. Sever al captured English drafts have hereto fere bf-en sent forward for collection, but wre returned with the endorse ment of -'no funds." As the Govern ment has acknowledged that these are good, the action of the Liverpool bank ers is awaited with special interest. The Herald's Washington special says a rumor has gained circulation that if the Freedmen's Bureau bill shall pass in the House of Representatives in the same shape that it was received from th Senate, the President will issue a proclamation declaring th? priv ileges of the writ of habeas corpus re stored in rill the border States. The 2d Comptroller has decided that non-commissioned officers mustered out in consequence of the consolidation of regiments before the reduction of the army commenced, are only entitled to installments of bounty which accrued while ihey were in service. The bodies of Union soldiers who were killed skirmishing near Falls Court house, in 1SJ1, are being dis-in-terred for re-burial in the soldiers' ceiu ficry at Arlington Generals Grant, Sherman, Thomas and Meade, who have been considering all the military bills before Congress, have returned them to Senator Wilson with their suggestions. The recom mendation for the increase of the army hnve been materially changed by these officers. They seem opposed to giving ihe volunteers any show whatever for incorporation in the regular army. The bill for the re-organization of the State militia meets their hearty approval; they lso approve of the V est Point bill it proposes to increase the number of cadets 150, to be selected from the son? of sold it rs who fell in defense of the country. The President and Cabinet have had iindr consideration the arguments of Stmmes claiming the right to be dis charged under the Sherman-Johnston parole, but have come to no definite conclusion. Nlw Yonii, Feb. 5. It is stated that A. T. Siewort. who is now proceed ing against Colburn, Assistant editor of the Tribune, and Knapp, of ihe St. Louis Republican, for libel, has several more libel suits on the lapis against correspondents cf the western press. New York, Feb. G. The Herald's spexial, dated 5ih, says ihe Fenian ex citement is somewhat abated since it appears that Sweeney is not in Cana da. Precautions are not neglected, and both police and military are on the alert. Excitement and alarm ar still wide spread in the towns on the St. Lawrence river. Yickers" express office was robbed last night of SI 2,000; the Provincial Telegraph office w as also entered by robbers. The Times" Washington special says ihe Government directors, commission ers and engineers of the Pacific R It., who have been in session at Washing ton, adjourned yesterday after adopting regulations intended lo insure the speedy construction of the road. While in session the board received highly en couraging reports from the West rela tive to ihe progress of ihe great work. Another company of Northern men who went South with the view of in vesting their money and establishing homes, have returned," satisfied that the hvi-s and property of loyal men are not safe under the governments now estab lished there. One of their number purchased a plantation within 60 miles of Vicksburg, and was notified lo leave w ithin five days. lie at once set his freedmen to work building; a small fort on which he rested the American flag, he then armed the freedmen aud noti lied the mob that lie was ready to leave if they were ready to force him away. He had not been disturbed at last ac counts. An association of city school super intendents meets in Washington to day, to make a permannt national organi zation.. Prominent among the subjects of discussion will Lethe necessity of n National Bureau of Education. The leading educator of the oountry are to be present. Gen. Sherman was in the gallery of the Senate during the delivery of Mr. Sutler's speech. He was to have lft last night for his post.
