Tlic We clip the following from a recent number of the Western (Wis.) Firmer. It shows that Nebraska is atti acting the attention of farmers throughout the States, and that Plaits-mouth is becom ing a oint of recognized importance: But for the young, X'lrn Jr is the easi est place to break into the world. There a State House has been built without costing State cr city one dollar. I his is the last chance this side the Paci tie slop-?, in the grand agricultural belt of the con tiner:t,"the gulf stream of ini'eroceanic travel. No where else have railroads so prepared the wsiy for settlement. Here they precede, as well a? follow, population. Nebraska was bisected by one railroad, the grand Union Pacific, before it was born; and six other lines each laid down ten miles of track last Fe! ruary, lest they should loose their land grants. Oue of these lines, pushing west from Plattsmouth, is already run ning its trains half way to Lincoln, the Nebraska capital, and will run them all the way in three months, and then cut through the State to Fort Kearney, opening n trans-continental cut off, in the latitudo of Nov York city, and avoiding the roundabout northing through Omha. No part cf Nebraska will lorg be des titute of schools, churches, or aoy mod ern isuprovemeni.

"Ho! then, for Ne braska! th-i best poor man's country in the world ! Yes. the region where, when St. loom's, Chicago, and Cincinnati have each cut off the National Capital from the other two, may yet be sought as the Lead-center of the universal Yankee nation. The Aster House, New York, will be turned into stores when the present lease expires. Lexington Va., has had an excitement in the recent erection of the first Eteam eDginc ever seen in the place. It is an annonialy, perhaps, but when peace and quiet are restored iu Cuba tha planters will begin to raise cane. Y St ii t' t" .T V. The fs'ebrxfka All,-s, published in Seward county, bus an articbdsevriptive or York c.u!:ty and if.-; itnpr m-mtist?, which we copy entire : Tl: proprietor of th-j new county seat of York count', i. N. Smith. K., has disj.l fd com.ntnd.i!!-' oneray in living out the new town ail jneparing com fortable fpiarters for the county ciTieers ai'cer the en-uimr election. The town sue o-pies two nunuivi an-.i sixtv acres i of land haii'isomely laid out. with Pub- lie Square and Ik-pot grounds, and the lots are sixty by one hundred and forty- n feet. Wehavel-n favored with a ror.y of the maj) of the new county seat of York county, and as it gives the local ion of the four townships lying in the centre of tne count;-, it shows to isooi advantage tlie position of the ne town. The set tlement is on Leaver Creek, about four miles south of Lincoln creek, in the midst of an extremely fertile country which has rapidly settled up with a thri ving population. The fertility of the soii is unsurpassed in the State, and the immigration to that county this year will riot, fall short of .several thousands. The West Blue in the south part of the county has nearly every claim on it pre-euipted or homesteaded, and for a mile or two back of the stream, thus opening up a splendid fanning section. The Beaver running through the centre, and Lincoln creek fart her. north, are ab-o well settled, giving a fanning population as a basis upon which to build a sub stantia! and permanent county town. The future of the new town of York is beyond peradventure, and w e predict a fortune to those who have invested their capital to build up a county scat for the new county. The railroad is not defi nitely located at this place, but whether it does or does not, the town must al ways be the largest place in the county. T!o 15. efc yi. ft:ilroArt Is steadily progressing L:nco!nv;-ird, and we already begin to feci out of the wild erness. A few weeks more will fill tha gap between us and the outside world, and Lincoln will send her greetings by telegraph to her sister cities of the FaM. The importance of this event to the prosperity of our city cannot bo over estimated, and its benefit" will be im mediately seen in the increased energy inrtnife.-ted iu all departments of bu.-i-ness. We have been preparing for its arrival by furni-hing s.c-Hortniiodatton for the trade it will brin.g with it, and by mailing our city as ttttrc-tive as po3T:ibie to the thousands wh&ijitU'. than vislt,us. and should all put ch. fevriing counte nance to welcome them. --Whether they'' come with e?.pitrd to build up our man ufactories, with energy to push on the w-.nk of improving our city, or with muscle to tih the soil, tney sire ail neeueo. am i wm mi receive a v.'-.ieome. For some length of time, probably, this place will remain the terminus of the road, and wo should he awake to Sie advantages this will give u Mttnuf:" tureswill spring up in our mcUt to meet, the increasi d demands, and these should he looked afttr. The railroad conn-anv wi 1 need shops for the ns.ir.mg and re pairing f machinery, and Lincoln is I he mo i central :iud convenient place for iheirlocatica. Until the road h;v mades its we.-tcrn connection Lincoln v.il! be the most toiisidc ruble l .Int on the line, and will nccessarial'y continue to be the prin ciple business center. When the other roads are completed we will !nvc con nection with tl.e cast, west, north, and south, and these will brine: direct into our city the coal, iron an other material lor carrying on iosimss.ictiirmg, una renuer this the natur.'d center for a!! work nec essary or- the rolling stock of the roads.

Blue Island, Saline Co., Neil, j.ine Co., Neil, ) JIarch 25, FsTO. ) Editor Statesman: Soma of the Democratic, papers of the State have seen fit to criticise my conduct as a mem ber of the committee appointed by the legislature to investigate the officiate in duct of the commiMsionersof public build ings, etc., and to charge me with "white washing" commissioners. The Omaha ll'-ral l includes rue iu the list of mem bers bought by direct bargain and sale. With my friends and acquaintances such charges have no effect. Unfortu nately, however, to many of my constitu ents, I am personally unknown. 1 set tled on the Big Blue river, in this county, over seven j-ears ago, (the first settler here), and have here remained, improv ing my homestead by V4 oicn labor, un til the people called me (unasked) to the position I now occupy. I have borne the democratic standard through ten political battles and hare never yet sutfered defeat ; have voted the democratic ticket since I S-10, and pro pose "to light it out on this line. I have served my country faithfully in two wars, and am not yet so old but that 1 would again obey her summons "right or wrong. ' ' I have held office for twenty years (in Ohio, Iowa and Nebraska), and never "whitewashed" any man, (not even Governor Butler), and 1 thank (Sod that 1 cuti also say that 1 have never Hack ened the character of any maa unde servedly. I am now acting justice of the pcaco, and if Satan Lini3eif (or any other re publican) n brought, before me he may expect jutticc. If he stands charged with as many crimes as were the com missioners, he will, unless they are proven, receive an acquittal. I wili al vavs endeavor to "give the divi! his 1 " ! - one. I am poor, s;nd not worth buying, but, assuming that Governor Butler lias msidj ail (or more) from Lincoln lots than has been cl'egcd, he has not enough money to luy me. Some have seal, but plrey the foci, and I some choke at a gnat and swallow a amel chopped (saw-miU) ; others will go for a pint bot 11 full of j tie in the Governor's coat pocket, anu take a five gallon jar. I have never t.t;cd favors of the demo cratic party, but have received many, for which I am truly thankful. 1 am satisfied the jrrty do not expect or wish ia-i to violate my obligation to p!"?i any man, or set of men, and : ' some over-zealous members expect it, I have simply to say they have mistaken their man. 1 hrtve always deemed my self as much of a "copperhead" as any one, but have never yet gone blind be fore tho proper season of the year. Hoping, Mr. Editor, that your demo cratic principles will soon jingle through out the Isind even as our money did. I remain yours for the right, J. S. Hunt.

And the ulter contempt I felt for these impertinent, squabby, tidka tive land-sharks! Perhaps some m.ay think it unmanly to have the cheek moistened with the sympathetic taar; but my prayer shall ever be, "iiw me tvara for olhrrs troc, and patience for my own." Many of these immigrants are people, who, after struggling with rais fortunes ail their past lives, by close economy have acquired a little property in the shape of town lots, or a all farm, near some of the villages which hava sprung into existenc-3 along tho line of the numerous railroads in States cast of ours.

They had oftan heard of Nebraska; her agri cultural wealth, agrestic beauty, her ge nial and ttdubrious climate They had made up their minds several years ago to come to Nebraska and take a home stead, l'hcy begin to talk about their new home in the west; oon they forget their sorrows, and rejoice in the hope of a beautiful farm on tho banks of some purling brook. The little ones begin to see themselves out in the fields, on their "father's farm," gathering daisies', sweet wlliianss, May Cowers and the cowslip. The days fly swiftly by; soon they are at "Old Muddy." They cross at Platts mouth, where they, old and young, re ceive a hearty welcome from such noble men as J. Fitzgerald, Ik T. Duke, S. Bloom, Doom Bro.'s, and a Lost cf other such generous soult. Here, cfter many a hearty congratulation, they get all necessary information, make their little purchases, and with light hearts and buoyant hopes they start for the Land Office at the "Hub." Here, the mo ment the ifam stops they are surrounded by a set of hesperian "land .-haiks," who inform tho newly arrived that "it's a pity they did not get here a few weeks sooner, all the good claims are taken ; there arc a few rough, broken claims away up at the south end of the county, without wood or water. It's a pity, you Lave come so far! really I am sorry; but I'll tell you what, if you don't find any thing that suits yf-u, after looking nroun-1 a week cr two, I have an SO near town that I will let you have cheap, if you wish to buy, &e.. &e., &c.M Here the oipl've. ventures to suggest thnt perhaps he can find good claims by going farther west.

I have known of numbers of people, coming as far a Lincoln, and then return cast disgusted. Now these tliiags ought not so to be. We rejoice to see your prosperity ; and we hope to see Lancaster county one of the brightest stars iu our glorious constellation. Sha is the nucleus of our hopes and pride. But God fort-id that we should ever at tempt to uo-k her with ihe jewel that of ri.irht belong to energetic Seward, pa tient York, or struggling F.limorc.

The curse of the working men is in temperance. Too many who give muscle to their work, think that they get strength from wine, or beer, or whisky ; and too many who givo brain to their work, fall into the same ssd error. In either case the stimulus brings a double heart. It over-excites, and in conse quence, there is exhaustion of muscle and brain ; while it creates the desire, nay, almost the necessity far new an-I in creasing stimulation. To what fatal consequences all this had, we need scarcely say. It is the broad and eay ws:y to drunkenness-, poverty, and ruin. The royal road to prosperity a:id happi ness does not lie through the beer-shop find drinking saloon. They who go in through these open doors, enter the way that leads to disease, poverty, wretchedness, and the destruction of air that makes life beautiful and desirable both here and hereafter. A Foittaud (Oregon) hotel keoperwas victimized not long since in the following manner : A. B. went to him and engaged board for a week at ??10 per week. "Now," said A. B., "I may be absent occasionally; what deduction will you make for that?" "Fifty rents a niesd if.nl fifty cents a lod-rng," re pile. 1 the landlord. Timo were onand A. . wi.s foii-etimes there an 1 sometimes n:-t. After a while the landlord pr ented a bill for three week's board In a short time A. B. appeared with a counter bill for deduction for meals and iodciugs missed. Meals catcsi, three, $150; lodg ings i;ii;-cd, rein Icen. ?7 ; balance in fa vor of A. B.. The' landlord, of coarse, was a litllo r.totidV:l sit the ru se.!': f f the ree konhig, and theref;ro said not a word, for the b"s '. reason that he coubi not think of anything that co i'd do justice to the su'j;et.. Whereupon A. J., to n 'iicve the lan-bord'-s perpiox ity, remarked with cool urbanity, "Weil, never mind the S2: I'll take thsd out in loard." The Irr.; l'f.ri could not see how to keep even with such a boarder, and so tho connection between him an-1 A. B., as landlord and boarder, came to an end. miu-ut-m acr; How aitonished some of our fashiona ble, ladles would bo if a certain law passed in Kngland in 177. jn.-t s. century arc, were re-enacted: "'Any perscn who sha'l by moans of rosn or of b!arc, t-f perfume-i, of essences, of artificial teeth, of false hair, of -ctton K-pagr.nl (what ever that r.iuy bo), of st-'el ta; s or ;:0"p?

At a recent term of court Morton was fbrem.-iu of the maud jury, end as Mason held the bench, there was but si poor show for any fraudulent transaction to be sho-.vnup.

Y"e hope that Judge Mason, and Mr. Morton, both of whom sire known as men of the most bitter r-u-l relentless dipsosition to persecute, may now be able to "'sleep sound o'uiruts." in the blessed con-ciousness of having "gagged the press," nut we very much mistake the temper of the people of Nebraska if this tyraiiical act does m-t call down tho severest censure. Judge Mason is powerful, but we do not be'leve lie has. tho necessary strength to choke "sown th-: weako'-t press in the State: if he b-is we shall emigrate to Turkey.
