There is at lea-t one, and perhaps two, : papers published in this State that make j their entire stock in trade out of oppo- i hitioii to the re election of Senator ; Thayer. They have howled fearfully j against him, tind the press of tho State have looked on and heard their howls j without taking a stand cither for or j against the election of any particular in- i dividuals. This so annoys these one idea papers that they fairly beat the air in their fury, and absolutely demand that somebody shall "tread on their coat tails" to keep them froui spoiling. The Republican press of the State have generally agreed that the republican members of the Jiegislature thould de de who fehould jg the U S. Senator, and there they are willing to'let the mat ter rest. Not so with the one idea con corns especially the Omaha Tribune. That concern was started on a tingle j idea, and it has held its own remarkably j well having never for a moment j touched upon any other theme. It j works itself into a towering passion be . cause tfie various papers of the State J laugh at its single handed combat with j its own shadow, and leave the matter in j the hands of the members elect to the j Legislature, with full confidence that the Republican members of that body will do that which seemcth U' to thvm. And that is ju.-t ''what's the matter" j with our one idea neighbor at Omalia. It fears totru-tthe Jlopubliican majority in the Legislature. It is very anxkm that the advice of the Democratic- and ;re hea 1 minority shall be oLcye 1. e "feci for you," occasionally; but you should not allow your "angry pas-ions :. rise" because others do not feel in clined to increase your stock in trade by knocking chips off your siiouldcr.

In ld4, by J pome process alleged to be fraudulent, j the case was agaiu got before the Su- pre me Court, which decided in ISoo i acainst McGarrahiu. He applied to j Congress for relief, showing sound prece- I dents for his appeal. The Thiity-ninth ; Congress passed a resolution forbidding j a patent to issue until it had investiga ted the case. In the Fortieth Congress a bill passed the House by a large ma jority vesting the title in McGarrahan, but it was not reached by the Senate in time for action. Tlie appeal was re newed in the present Congress. The Judiciary Committee heard both parties at great length, first exacting from the New-IJra Company a pledge that it would not seek nor accept a patent until Congress had acted in the matter. The Committee has not . reported. It was the attempt by Mr. Cox to infringe upon this agreement, and to go back on his own pledge to the Committee, that brought down the President's reprimand , , and subsequently caused his resignation. Mr. MeOarrahan is an Irish gentleman ff a good family and education. He . . OIj. . caiiu to this country in lS-lS and settled in California, where he acquired a hand some competency which has lonir since; been expended in a wearisome defence of his rights acquired under decrees of the United States courts, lie is a modest, upright freiiial gentleman, and much es teemed fur his general worth and per sistent energy. The Omaha daily "fraud and corrup tion" edited by some fellow who is ashamed of it. is so intense.lv ho-.tile agiin-t everybody who holds office un der General Irants administration that it wade's into (Jen. Livingston, of this city rough shod. The only reason it assigns for its abuse of him is that he holds the office of Surveyor General of Iowa and Nebraska. Sail in little one; the people are fa-t learning what the disease is that hurts you, and they know ju-t how bad vou have it. iTou should now say something about Gen. Thayer; you shoul-t tell folks what a ter rible fellow he is for he has only lived in Nebraska about fifteen years. Vou who have lived here such a reat length of time (since just before the election) can probably enlighten these western heathens. uKOHiii r tiii: ixio.v. luK-mthiK KlHtistica Mum Ins the Irs tosh of mr I'rtiiripal Cities.

'Mr Pea it Sin and Madam: In the untimely loss of your noble son, our affliction here is scaivo!.: ; h-s than your own. So much of promised usefulness to one's country, and of bright hopes for one's self and friends, have nrtver i been so suddenly dashed as in his fall. In size, in years, and in his youthful ap pearance a boy only, his power to com mand men was unsurpassingly great. This power, combined with a line intel lect and indomitable- energy, and a taste altogether military, constituted him, as seemed to me, the best natural talent in that department I ever knew. And yet he was singularly modest and deferen tial in social in'ercourse. My acquaint ance with him began less than two years ago; yet, through the latter halfo' the intervening period, it was as intense as the dispairty of our ages and my engross ing engagements would permit. To me lie' appeared to have no indulgences or pastimes, and I never heard him utter a profane or intemperate word. hat was conclusive of his good heart, he never forgot his parents. The honors he labored for so laudably, and, in the sad end, so gallantly gave his ' life, he meant for them no less than himself. " In the hope that it may not be no intrusion upon the sacredness of your sorrow, 1 have ventured to address yu this tribute to the memory of my young friend and your brave and early fallen son. "May God give you the consolation which is beyond all earthly power. Siucerlv your friend in a common atflict tiou. " "A. Lincoln." It is said that a merchant of Omalui recently mistook our worthy friend, the Assessor of Internal Rivenue for Ne braska, for the famous "BufTa'o Pill"' of the plains.

We hae onlynom for the finale. After inglorious at tempts to find nature's sweet re-torer, at sindry hotel, he finally approaches the House, and rather liking the appearance of the place, he walked in and walked up to the register to enter his name. Imagine hs dismay at seeing an old grey-headed bedbug crawling over the page on which he had just registered his name. He threw down the pen and started out of the door, exclaiming as he went, "'Veil, Omaha may take the broom !

Ky., on Sabbath evening last, came very near "lying from an overdose of nutmegs, of which he had partaken rather freely for the purpose of removing from his breath the fumes of liijuor. The physi cians of that place were calle I upon to exert their utmost skill to relieve him, and after spending almost the whole night with him, succeeded in rcclieving him of the attack, and declaicd I.i.n out of danger. The practice of eating nut megs is a grow ing evil iu many sections of tlie country, and this instance of the danger .-it tending the habit, we hope, will lead all addicted to it to take w arn ing and abandon this injurious and, when carried to excess, dangerous prac tice.

The Milwaukee iSen iiiul says "The womcu arc nearly all dead." COA5-. Editor Herald: I see by the newspapers of Omaha, that some dispo sition is manifested to test the great pro blem of "fuel for Nebraska," by boring one thousand feet for it. There seems to be a great division of opinion at that place, anl where divisions of that char acter exit the chances are that the cowardly advice will be followed, because people naturally cling to S'ifc advice I whore their pockets are likely to be af- feete 1 and unreasonably demand too ! positive as.-uranees of success before risking their money. Now sir, why not organize a company here simply to test this question by boring. Say we start a company with 10o0 shares, each share to be worh $()., making an aggregate capital of 62O.(M)0. Let ten j-cr cent be paid in, which will give $2000 to start with and will be an assessment of $2. per share. Let the stock be taken un der the law by subscription, and after the books are closed, let the share hold ers divide the stock which is left in pro portion to the origiual suOM-ripinn. Having ?2 ioj paid to start with, a set of officers working gratituously could foresee the wants of tlio company and levy assessments from time to time to meet the expenditures. Thus the work of boring could be successfully carried on without being bunhnsome to any of the shareholders. Tt certainly would not cost over $.7)00 or per cent of the capital stock, to test the inaticrthoroiigh ly, or 63. per share. Will not ssme of our enterprising citizens take hold of this matter at once. Let the right of mining be obtained from all property holders for a given number of years, and a sujieient space nt the surface secured to accomodate all the wants of the boring and if needs be the shafting, then go to work by contract, Let advertisement: be published calling for bids to bore a given distance reserving the riht to stop the contract as soon as coal is reached in a sufficiently thick layer. Why wait? Why not prove the matter beyond tho sa.iddow of a doubt. Ju-t think -Mr. KiiiTOi; what n blessing it would be to this city r.ay not only to us but to all !

If this p::;-i ha faults, which other may see. let us r,ot fritter aw: valuable time in dioc issiiig th :m, but all work in harmony and adopt any better one -ecu:'; i the object n view.

A ( 'hinnman can't pronounce the word "busiiiesjs " The nearest lie can come to it is '"pigeon." A very f'.w Fniilish words jironouneed in John Chinaman's peculiar way, a few Portuguese, and a few Chinese word-, all wrought into Chi nese idioms, make up the business lan guage which is used between the Chi nese and Fnglish speaking traders. This language is called "Pig'on l iiiglish." An Englishman translated inio pigeon the familiar address, "My name is Nor val. On the Grampian hills my father feeds his Hocks;" and the result was: "My name is Phong Norval. Top Keh lampian hill my fader chow-chow be sheep." Put the next sentence beg gared the language, anl "A frugal s.vain, whose coustant care is to increase his store," had to be freely "done" in this shape: "My fader very small heartce man too much like that piecie dolla."

Mr. S. stipulates that he shall be allowed to pay all the expenses of the young man's sojourn on the prom isco a condition very neatly designed to force the great dry goods man's peisonal acquaintance upon his blur-blooded guest. Perhaps the young ltussian will sell his recognition at that price, but it. is just possible that he mnv prefer 'the inde pendent fashion of paying his way and choosing his society.
