From the -f l r.ine-s Tiif-n f Nebraska City 3inc a j jroodlv sliaro of the j aironatre thst set ! our infant sdiecl upon its travel-;." Ft is a mst notic-able fwt that Ne- i br-ka City did believe in Liii'-oln from i th- fir.-f. and ht lie-vitiir ai-tol arr l:t?!y. It was Nebraska City nun who first aw ; the ie-asibiiity of the removal of the ; Cnr-iral and tlie l-uildin? uj of a prcat j inland town f-.cuth of tlie l'iatte Hivcr. JWts. j If it tvos "Xeh-raka City nu n vrho j tirst fa w the feasibility of the removal off the eaj.ital," why did not her m.-w.-jiaj.crs j have the j.luck to eome out in favor of i the j.roj.'f t. Tlie inemlers of the I'C-i.-Iaf ure that passed the li!l removintr the i'aj ital have not forgotten tlio vreakne-s of the i-i'irsal column of the Nebraska j City yaicrs at that time, and that the j Piatt .-mouth Hkraih was T1IK ONLY i I'APKIi I NTH K.STAT!-: tliat -too, u j in favor of the removal until nftir thr bill hud ied. After the question had ! bt-en .settled, and the removal was alixed ; f'a-.t. thr;t, and not till tin . i. did the papers ! of Nebraska City take position in favor ! of the removal at that time and under j that IaTV, and the JiL of thr It-i1r,s will : evidence the correctness of our ttatc- ' inent. We remember distinctly that i Nebraska City r.vn caine to this city j jntfjuwfJ; to assure us of their endorse- j "merit t-f our cour;- on thi capital qties- ' tion, and at tlie same time deplored the instability of the papers of their own ; town in not liaving sufficient; in lepend- cnee to come out in favor of the project. ; It does not come with a very jrf-od crace ! from the l'rrxx to claim f t Nebraska ', City all the credit lor building up Liu- coin. The tnen who r as-ed tli'J bill felt I the necessity of a united mi port, and : have not fortrotten the treneral indigna- ; tion that prevailed amon them at the course of the pnpers of Nebra-ka City. ; We know, full well, that many Nebraska j City men t.-ok an active part in securing 1 the removal nf the capital, and had th-y l.icen warmly seconded by the pre-.s of; that city, as they should have, been, then 1 the peeple and palters of that city mieht ! lave had .mc prounds f ir boasting. j Miller, of the Nebra-ka City 1 Vrsx, made a personal assault upon us somy time since, through the columns of his paper, with :it the .-ILditc-t provo.-iition. e sup.t- he reasoned like some hthool boys we have seen that he was very weighty and mu-t .-how his "mus cle" by attacking whal he would e ill a '-mall lxy." placing us in the catalogue of '.mall hoy.," editorially. The small boy has rather pot the "ui: sc hold" on Jiiliy. and he now cies out that he will ' tell the schoii! liUTiu" if we don't let h'ni alon Ilesays: '"Tie.' f!:owiu'' specimen of the way in which the I'lattsmouth Jli-. uhl snarls ami snaps at every item in the Nebraska City palters, concerning the progress of the Midland l'atitie Railway, or the pro-Crc-s df this section of the State we pive t r the ben-ilt of tli't.-e of our citiz'n who patronize that junrnal." Ilcie he Iiisci ts an item wherein wc Ji-ked him if he had any idea how much iron it took to lay twelve miles of rail road, and adds : "Wo have a large number of friends arid a- quaintcnanecs in l'lattsinouth who we know do not share the feeling towards Nebraska City manifested in the above, and we thus prominently call the atten tion of the llii'ill to the item, hoping to secure fbr it in future a more just representation of the people of I'latts mouth. and a more gentlemanly conduct of their neighltors." Now, lilly, we know yon have "pist 'Mea l load," of friends in thi.s locality, art I they mu.t know of ihe davs and ri'ghts you have worried your h-ain to assist I'lait.-moutli, but if any of tliem can toil wh it you are ti ving to get thro" you in the last paragraph above we would like to hear them. We d hope you will think better of it, and not have all your friends withdraw their patronage from the llt.it.!.t. Next time we enter into a little sparring match with a news paper we shall try and se'ect o.ie that v ill not plead the La by act when ir can't keep even. TIIC MIlJ.V.X 1-AtinC.

City J'i.--. df the Pi.ATrs.MorT; t IIk:ali had made tli above statement, Miller would have said at once that we were try ing to ''injure Nebraska City," and that we did not have a proper regard for the "great father" of the Yw because we did not believe all the little anecdotes published therein n regard to the "Mid land and F. A. White, ll-.,." The above proves the correctness of oar s .-ertion, over which Miller gets m awful 'vrathy that he threatens us with his "friends and acquaintances io Plait -mouth,"' that it must Lnr. y Mr. White wry niucli to be tliamp'wucd by men who kn w nothing about building rail roads, and who by making Mich reckless statements as tho-e ref'ened to in the above item of the IVc-, mu-t do Mr. VLite, the railroad and the town a seri ous injury. At the. ri-k of again having Hill;, his "friends and acquaintances" all "go for" u- we repeat the assertion that .statements made at random without a proper knowledge of what labor or money it takes to build a railroad, are not exaet'y the thing to 1 e Itclieved by he public. We do not intend any injury to Nebraska City by the a!ove i-tafe- NlCTlt. To lav off a square acre of land, mea ue feet for each side of your spiare, trrl it will uantaiu aa re: waL"uiuu inch.

The connec tion is via U. P. It. It. to Omaha, th-nce by C. U. rt. Jo. It. ll. to "La-t Piatt-inouth," the jKint where the D. & It. J'. crossses the latter road. Has new road is now in running order the entire distance from Plattsmouth to Uuriington. Ly the connection jilxive named we are supplied with another route to Chicago and the ca-t, and a line which is lerhap as fhort as cither that of the C. & N. W. or C. 1L I. & 1. II. I w'..

You will Gu l ihi a much more valua ble connection as soon as the road is completed from Omaha tin Ueilevueand Laramer Mills to a connection with the Ii. k M. on this side of the Platte. Kailroa Is are powerful aids in the de veiopmejit of a countrv and in the con centration of capital. They hold a pre ponderating iiiiluence over favorable lo calities, milder ciiaiate. s-uperior .soil, di rectness of route and slower thorough fire. Without the aid of railroads, liichardson, Nemaha, Pawnee, Johnson andiage counties stood first and fore most above all other l.tcalities in the State. Urownville, when all towns were dciiending upon their natural resources, g ive promise of be -onmg the metropo lis of the State. Omaha, sided by the resources of the V. P. It. It., soon led her by many thousands, Nebraska City standing tremblingly second, as her pros jxictive railroads were considered more or less certain, and for a long time Urown ville held the position of the third tO'.vn in size and commercial importance. Now, the 1. Si M. being completed to the river, comes to the aid of Platts mouth ; and wv reluctantly yield our place to that growing city. Jirotrnril'e Ailctrlixrr. We hope and believe our Ilrorvnville fiicnds will soon get their arrangements perfected for at least one line of road, and then .she wiil loom up again. Noth ing would give us greater pleasure than to class Urownville among the railroad towns of Nebraska. OMAHA It I'l.ATTS.nOITir. The I!t)iilliain opies our remarks alioutv.bat it said in regard to the oj idl ing of the II. & M. and adds: "We published the entire article rela tive to t he "la-t rail." just as it appeared in the Platt-mouth Ih:itAU, and g ive our reader the l-cneiit of every word w hich tiiat pajicr had to say about it. Wc did let claim that the"ll. it M. js to le "'e.-peciaiiv an Omaha road." We oniy claimed that it projntscd to run, niter January l.-t, regular thiouL'h trains U-tween Omaha and Chicago. We have no doiiiit it will al-o run train from Plattsinouth, as well. We did not even take the trouble to state, in our article w hich s -cins to give offence to our friend of the lli itAI.Ii that the H. it M. is fit ting up an elegant tickctoifio; .n the cor tier of Ninth and Fainham. and that its tlcneial Western Aueiil, Mr. 1. W. Hitchcock, makes his headquarters in this city et such is the fact. The 1$. it M. wih doubtless run trains from Omaha and Pla t-mouth to Chicago, and a fiord ample accomodations to the people of hoi h towns. If not, ww can get along spien li div on the C. It. I. it P., tire C. it N. W. and the "Old Iteliable" tin St. Joe. We have severalstrings to our bow, up here, and we shall get to Chica go by one route or another. We are glad to ktiow that Platt.-mouth i accom modated as well by the II. & M., and we expect to meet brother Hathaway at the junction, one of t heedays, and ride with him in the same Pu'ilman Palace ro Chi cag.. There will be room enough for both of us and our friends on the U. it M. sleepers. If not we will take a front scat in a second class car and rnul;r while our Plattsmouth friends resign themselves" to the embrace of Morpheus in Pullman's uowny cu.-lions. !" That sounds a little better, Col. You see, we fully understand that you have "several strings" to jour bow. and as we are mainly dejiendant on the U. it y. string for tlu present, we guard it pretty closely, and when anyone shows indication. of trying to weaken that strin.r, we just "go for" them w ithout ceremony. At the time of our remarks the JirjHil.licitu had not published our article on the "last rail," but has done so since. As we don't smoke, suppo.-:e you put a box of "Burton" in your pocket. We clip the following items from the Lincoln ,Vort .( of the t!7th ult. We are informed that Hon. J. S. Morton has commenced an action for the ejectment of Mcs.-rs. Tichnor it Co. from hi-, saline lands, claimed for and leased by the State. The present move ment wilt get the case before the courts, and the question, w hether the C S. can make Lon-i JiU- sales of its lands and then back out. Prof. Hutler, of Madi-ori. Wis., the great European tourist, has been deliver ing a series of 1-ctures in our city. The l.-cture were highly entertaining :;nd well attended. The Professor lias vi-itcd all of t ho most noted localities on the globe, but the distinguished traveler could not think of" closing his preambu I ition until he had visited our magic City de-tiiied at no distant day, to t; cotne the great commercial centre of the American States, with a tide of com merce fiom the West not surpassed bv t.iat of the Mast.

In-tcad of le:ng 4 huge sK.'cimen of petrifaction, it funis out te tie the work of a Kren hiuan by tli ; name of trjrard, a toa-j cut ter, who secretly set him.-clf to work, Mile year or two since, to cut a statue of St. i'aul. He iveapied a little shanty near the sjtot where the "glerit" was found, and he and a fnen d burled it where it now lie. Herard soon after died, but not until he had told a friend by the name of Ihtoker all about the statue ho had u.ade. Hooker is said to have m i le this statement of the cae and : worn to it. If true, and it appears very phi isible, that wonder has had its day. Jctrtf't t'ne J'vx. (uuul)' raprnt. Those county papers that get one side of each .issue printed outside of the county in which they are pu'oli-hed, are .somewhat interested in the tlllow ng de cision of the Post OiSee Jcjartuieut, as also are their subscribers.

Tlie subject of the next census Lj one of lively iutere.-L The plan proposed by the Census Committee is far more com rehcrisive a d iiorough than any one heretofore adopted. An independent bureau i contemplated, aud a preat rnnpe of schedule, including critical in qii'iic into the industries of the countrj, a well as mot ciiiiplcte wicial statistics. Tlie Committee think that the Census tiikcr should not Udong to the Judicial IVpartmeut of the (Joveniuient, as mar shals do ; but that this business should le done by those entirely unconnected with the constabularj' of the country, so that there wiil be no fear of assessments, arrests, seizures, or any inquisitorial pro ceeding. It is proposed to complete the work in a short time, and to publi-li the rejtort within one year after the returns are in. A lilicral compensation in the form of a salary or fter dien;, is ref m njended without mileage or any sort of constructive fees. " It will thus 13 seen that if Congress adopt the recommendation of the Com mittee, there will Ik? a radical change in the method of taking the census. The Department of the Interior was erected by act of March 3d, Is4'., and the Sec retary was given suien isory and appel late tower, liefore ercercised by the Sec retary of State, in regard to the acts of Marshals, signing requisition on esti mates, itc. lie was also to classify the returns, and lay them before Congress. The law under which tfi3 census of 1S.V) was taken, is still in force, and is far more ample in its provisions than any previous statute on that subject. A Su lerintendent is provided for, itc. As some of our readers may not be familiar with the manner of arriving at tlie number of Representatives due each State, we will give it. For example, by aet of May 231, liSoO. it is provided that after March 3d. ls.3, the number of members of the House shall be two hun dred and thirty-three. Taking the ag gregate population of the United States, the Secretary of the Interior ''shall di vide by the No. 233, and the product of such division, rejecting any fraction of an unit, if any such happen to remain, shall be the ratio etr rule of apportion ment of Representatives among the scve- : ral states under such enumeration : and ; the said Secretary of the Department of the lutenor shall then pntceed in the same manner to ascertain the representa I tive population of each State, and to di vide the whole number of the represe nta tive jtopulation of each State by. the ratio already determined by him as alxtve di- rectcd ; and the product of this Iat di j vision shall le the number of representa tives apportioned to such State under the then last enumeration; provided, that the lo-s in the numlterof members caused by the fractions remaining in the several States, on the division of the jiopulati ui thereof, shall le compensated for by assigning to so many States having the large.-t fractions, one additional niemlier each for its fraction, as may lie rice-cssary to make the whole numler of represent itives two hundred and thirtv three." The general of apportionment must re main, substantially, as it is. but the rej-re-eritative population will be material'v affected by tlie 14th amendment; also I by the loth, should it be adopted. Con gress, however i not hanijiered by any specific nn-thod of assigning representa tion, and has. in sev ral instance, given a larger number of representatives than wa- warranted by strict rule or any au thentic showing of populat'on. This discretion was exercised very lilterally in the cases of California and Minnesota. The provision of "the Constitution on thi subject is in very general terms, and Coiig'-css has frequently stepjted out of the u-ual routine to do equity, notwith standing census lcturn (if thought im jicrfect) or other tech leal objection. How Nebraska will Ik? a fleeted by the next census and apixirtioniut'iit, is a matter f immediate interest to our peo ple. Will wo have two representatives, and if so, when ?

The addi tional representative was given on ac count of larcre fraction, and while the recru'ar nnnortronment on the bao of ISOO. would have absorlied one rd' Min nesot.,'s members, thi act kept her old number srood.

From the lst data at hand, and rank incr a fiir estimate for immigration, we think our population in June next the pro'iable time for takin-r thecen-nis will lo from 23!.rx to 2.0.(MM.
