THE PRinAKT MEETINGS.
It was unfortunate that the primary
meetings for this county were called at a
time when farmers were very busy, and
the consequence is that no meetings were
held in several of the precincts. We
understand there were no meetings held
in Mt. Pleasant, Orcapolis and South
Bend. The following is a list of dele

have heard from them.

A LEADER WANTED,
The Democracy of the State are with
out a leader. They are troubled to know
wnat to do or wuo to get to do it. tinee
casting Morton overboard they are a. a
ship at sea without a rudder, and they
begin to appreciate the situation. We
look to fcee Sterling sten up and take the
''ribbons" soon and crack the Democratic
whip again. Dr. Blue, who supersedes
Morton for the present, gives forth the
following wail :
Who will lead u to battle next fall
and what are the declarations ot estate
policy, which the Democratic convention
at Plattsmouth, on the 7th of Septem
ber, will inscribe on their banners, are
questions about which men are now talk
ing ; and which will more and more de
serve our attention, as the time ap
proaches. We must act in concert we
must be united we uiu.t all march "nl
Xhe tap of the drum ;" and it is abso
lutely necessarj' to our complete organi
lation and harmony, that every county
should be fully represented. Then "up
and at 'em !"
ASSASSI.WTIO.V.
Col. Bnell Killed nt Fort Leaven.
worth A Soldier Mupponetl
to be Ibe Murderer.
St. Joe Union, 21th.
Another one of those atrocious crimes
which darken the pages of our country's
history has been committed at r ort Leav
enworth. On Friday night an officer
who has faithfully served his country in
its hour of peril was assassinated. He
who had gone throuxh many battles, and
had won distinction and honor for cour
age and judgement, was instantly killed
by a murderous bullet.
The following facta in regard to the sad
affair were-received by telegram yester
day :
Col. D. U. Burt, commnnding the
arsenal at Leavenworth, was murdered
about 10 o'clock, on Friday night. He
had just returned with his wife and child
from Gen. Sturges', where he had been
spending the evening, and had passed in
at the gate of his own home, when some
one concealed in the shrubbery, shot and
almost instantly killed him. A soldier
named John Malone is supposed to be
the murderer. A large reward is offei ed
for his arrest.
We were shown the following di.-paf eh
from Leavenworth, which was received
by Marshal Stroud, yesterday, after the
above was put in print, cautioning him to
look out for the murderer of Colonel
Buell, and also giving a description of
him :
Leavenworth, July 23, 1S70.
Eleven o'clock, a. m.
Chief of Police, St. Joseph, Mo :
Look out for J. M. Melone, the sup
posed murderer of Colonel Buell, proba
bly on the train from Leavenworth this
morning. Wears light linen coat, check
ered pants, slouch hat, thirty-three years
old, blue eyes, brown hair, five feet ten
inches high.
A large reward will bo offered for him
to-day. James M. Bell,
Brevet Major U. S. A.
Death.
Death is but a kind aud welcome ser
vant, who unlocks with noiseless hand
life's flower-circled door to show ui to
those we love. . Mourn not the living
dead, thev who have passed from this
to one of higher activity. They who
walk with us away from sordid cares to
things that ierisu not ; they are not
"dead," but they are dead whose aim
less souls reflect no glory on their path.
Our l ather waits to greet us beyond the
sea of death. When the waves break
on the shores of the life eternal, he will
come to bear us in his arms safe to our
home.
The First Organ.
The first mention of an organ appears
to have been in 757, when Constantino
Cupronymns, Emperor of the Eat. sent
to Pepin, King ot France, among other
rich presents, a musical machine, which
the French writers describe to have
been composed of pipes and large tubes
of tin. and i have imitated sometimes
the roaring of thunder, and sometimes
the warbling of a flute. A lady was so
affected on hearing it played on, that
she fell into a delirium, and could never
afterwards be restored to her reason. In
the reign of the Emperor Julian, these
instruments had become so popular that
Ammianus Marceliinus complains that
they occasioned the study of the sciences
to be abonded.
' Observation.
There is a great difference in the power
of observation ; some mn seeing less
than seems natural, and others more than
would be thought possible ; but the most
common observer has only to allow every
other man to know as many surprising
things as himself (which lew would, at
hrst thoueht allow), and he will easily
understand how the sum total fills the
world with invisible dramas. Little we
know what the heart is busy with while
the lips are phrasing for us the small talk
of the day ! Little we dream we inter
rupt or further precede or follow, help
to forget, or whiie away the time- for.
Few are only about what they seem to be
about, or are only what they seem to be.
The Weeping Water Koufe.
Through the want of enterprise ex
hibited by Saunders and Sarpy counties,
Ashland has lost the railroad bridge and
the advantage of being the point of in
tersection ef the O. & S. W. and thoB.
& M. It. U s. We regret for the sake
f that young and promising towu. that
the warnings of the Jounml have been
unheeded. But what is her loss is the
gain of the people ol Cass county. W e
;.re informed bv the President of the O.
JC S, W. that it will adopt the line sug
,rested two weeks ago by this pa per, lrom
he Platte via the . Weeping ater, to
Liucoln. For the present an arrange
ment is made with the B. & M. for the
ise of a common track from Cedar Is-
iod to Lincoln, but this is a temwrary
.xpedient. An independent line will be
uilt direct through Cass and Lancaster
.wjsidcrably shorter than via Ashland.

Tlie, secret treaty which was pnrjected
Ijfttyr-n France and Prussia inonopo'izcs
thott tent ion here of the public, the
press and Parliament. Intense indigna
tion is manifested at the duplicity of the
powers concerned, i'he action of Nopo
leon is considered insulting to Eng
land. Complete ignorance of the nego
tiation is profes-ed by the Freneh Em-bassj-
here.
A ilispatch from Brussels say the ac
count of the treaty published in the
L indoii Times i perf'ct-tly authentic
The l'-tgian Government- knew of its ex-lsren.t-
a short time ago.
In the Ilou-e of liords, Granville, tn
rt-piy to the question from De lied ('I-rl"', !
said he was unable to tae where the I
T'o.es obtain- d the text of the treaty.
After the announcement of the exist
ence of such a remarkable document it
would he the duty of France and Prussia
immediately aud spontaneously to ex
plain the matter to Europe.
D israr li, in the House of Commons
to night, alver questioning the foreign of
fice relative to the reported treaty, de
nounced the government for withholding
the correspondence He decla-ed Eng
land never could have tolerated such a
propo-ition. The extinction of Belgium
would be a calamity to Europe. He
hoped the government would give all the
particulars.
Gladstone said he was sorry the pa
pers were not u-ady for submission, and
that he w -uld be unable to uive the in
formation required or explain how the
proj.-ct became public. Its purport cer
tainly whs astounding. Doubtless the
powers "uipiicated would explain the
mystery.

A story is told in Paris of a ludy who
preset ves her beauty by plastering itraw-ci-rries
over her face every night and
washing them off the next morning.
'The fair creature has, for some time past,
b.-cn annoyed by a troublesome creditor.
The other day he called Itefore her
t-eautyship had risen, and insisted on
forcing his way into her bedroom to de
mand instant payment. But fools rush

"I hcar-1 tell of a preacher of the old
hard-lined fui.h, when long sermons were
the fashion, who agreed with a friend to
terminate one of his lengthy discourses,
at a signal, in order to admit of his going
to another place to exchange the same
day. It was unfortunate that he se
lected for his theme the future state of
the wicked and righteous. lie began
with the wicked, and it was so much ea
sier or so much more pleasant to depict
their torture, that he had preached a
sermon before he had reached the re
ward for the good. At this point he saw
his friend look at his watch, and then
give a signal that had been agreed upon.
What to do the preacher hardly knew,
but huddling his notes together as he
rounded off with his last argument that
clinched the sinner's doom, he' hoped
that such might be the happy pcrtion of
every one of his hearers! to their wild
astonishment."
The Eastern papers stand aghast at the
