.We-make tko following selections from
art excellent letter written by G. W. At
kinson, one of the proprietors of the
W est Virginia Journal, who has recently
"done" the liGreat American Desert"
as the greater portion of Nebraska, a
few years since, was supposed . to be.
We would, with pleasure, publish the
whole article, but the want of spa.e for
bids. I'ro. Atkinson found Nebraska
not a ''dsaert" but "as nice and rich a
country as he ever saw."
TIMBER.
The timber in this locality, and in fact
all over the State, is not by any means
abundant nor is it of as good qualities as
we find Kast, but still a sufficiency can
be found along the l'latte river for all
necessary purposes. Cottonwood and
elm arc the principal tree's that grow in
this country. lOxccllent timber, in large
?uantities, can be found on the liig blue,
tepublicau, Loup Fork, Wood and .ik
Horn rivers; also on nil of the principal
creeks.
WATER.
The witcr is pure and beautiful.
Wells along the Platte and other rivers
are dug only from five to fifteen fect to
find inexhaustible quantities of the
purest and clearest water that ever
flowed.
COAL.
Coal (Anthracite) is found in a num
ber of the Southern counties of the
State, but none is known along the
I'lattc Valley. The people here get all
their coal from themines of Wyoming
Territory. If "delivered: anywhera
along the U. P. Head at S 10.00 per ton.
The citizens here feel confident that they
will yet-find plenty of coal in the l'latte i
alley.
STOCK.
Cattle and sheep can be raised any
where along the l'latte with very little
trouble aul cpenc. athe heavy crops
of biiftal) gri furnish all th. food nec
essary 'to 'keep stock "all the winter, ex
cept during the heavy snows, when it
becomes necessary to issu out ha v.
The hay is procured by simply cutting
the prairie grass in the fall and storing it
away nicely, when it is ready for u-e in
winter. At some future elay this will be
One of the greatest e'attle raising locali
ties in the United States.

Thc fwo" former Jrnes are" now running

only a question of time for the whistle ot

l'latte.
vn.r.AcrsfATryrrrLTiENT5. "
There are settlements atid'Iittle villa
ges in every direction fjom Fort Kearuey,
and I am informed that all of the set
tiers are doing well and are ilelighteel
with their prairie homes. Land can be
bought anvwhere along the l'latte, as
fertile as the Ohio Valley, at from $1.50
to $5.00 per acre. Land in many locali
ties can be precmjted, and can be paid
for at the legular (Jovcrnmont juice
when it comes into market. It can also
be homestcaded by the settler simply
pa.ving the land oilice fee, which is $li
j'or 1 GO acres. The homesteader receives
a patent for the land after live years'
residence on the same.
c LUXATE.
Notwithstanding the
fact that the
whole of Nebraska is one of the smooth
est and levclest States in the Union, tho
climate in winter is very milld. Coid
weatlMT hardly fever, .1 am informed,
latsoTer two 'months-in the year. " The
prairie grass very often rjracs green nil
winter. The summers are also pleasant,
there being continuous breezes inter
spersed with showers of rain that mcas-
urablv destroy the heat.
"TJlEUKEVr AMKUICAN DKPERT."
NcvCr until recently did 1 know that
the great American Iesert which is laid
down in our atlases and ceographic?, and
annually taught our children, is a hoax
a myth of the most shameful character.
Having passed over a large portion of it
myself, and conversed with reliable gen
tlemen who have traversed the whole eif
it, 'I am lead to belieyo that there is
scarcely fcn acre of it but what is tillable
and susceptable of the highest cultiva
tion. That portion of the State over
which I passed I unhesitatingly pro
nounce it as nice and rich a country as I
ever saw. .The. 'vUrcat American Des

telling the youth that there is a barren

PLATTSMOUTII, NEBRASKA, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 15, IS70
FROM FILLMORE COUNTY.
Fii.lmokk County, Dec. 7, 1S70.
Editor Herald : I was quite inte
rested in your "extracts from Prof. Hay
den's geological report on Nebraska,"
in your issue of Nov. 24th. He said :
"Much time and money lias already been
spent prospecting and digging for coal
in this region ;" llI would be glad to
find a workable bed of coal for the good
people, but it cannot be." . Again, "I
could not risk my reputation upon any
positive statement in favor of the exist
ence of coal at all in this region, or any
workable bed in the State."
Perhaps I am not as sensitive in re
gard to my reputation as 1 should be.
It may be that my lack of that acute
sensibility, which the professor manifests
in his report, is owing to the fact that
my reputation was firmly established
years ago ! You will recollect that in
my report to Mr. Woodman, Managing
Director of the Ii. & M. Railroad in Ne
braska, of July, 1st 1870, I stated that
I had found "an extensive bed of coal,"
kc. in Webster county. In all our in
vestigations of the works of the bc
nifint Creator, have we not invariably
found them perfect in every minutia ?
Is Nebraska an exception to the univer
sal rule? Has our Ged deceived us
here? Has He in Iuj majestic goodness i
spread out those rich, glorious prairies,
interspersed with hill and dale spark
ling rivulet and every substantial good
except this one thing needful ? Has He
brought us from the '"Egypt" of the
East to this "Canaan" of America, and
provided no fuel? This land where
"every prospect pleases" except the
prospect of coal ! Why, sir, the iha
is preposterous ! I am no geologist, yet
I assert positively without f--ar of suc
cessful contradiction, that Nebraska has
coal, ijood coal and plenty of it. I wil
show any responsible man or company,
for a reasonable compensation in hand,
a bed of ijood coal that can be profitably
worked. Permit to say that I have
samples of thij coal ' at my residenc;,
(sec. 10, town S of range .'J west post
office, McFadden, York county, Neb.),
which has been examined by English
and American colliers and blacksmiths,
all of whom prouounce it of a f uperior
quality. I have burned it on thc ground
and in the stove ; it burns clear, quick
and clean. .
I am receiving a large number of let
ters from the east every iutHtU in
quiring in regard to the soil, climate,
atmosphere, building materials and fuel.
Our soil is as rich an Tproductive as any
part of any other State in the Union
our climate as genial and salubrious as
any other locality on this continent.
Thc atmosphere is clear, dry, and as
healthful as any other locality under
heaven. The State is bountifully sup
plied with several kinds of building
stene, superior clay for briek, and good
sand. Nebiaoka has an abundance ef
good coal, notwithstanding Prof. Hayden
to the contrary. Wood is not plenty in
all parts of thc State, yet in many parts
there is enough to supply a much larger
population than we have at present.
Nebraska has good markets, her center
, Leing the positive geographical center o
our glorious republic. We would say to
all creation, come to Nebraska. Come
one. come all ! To the poor man we say
come, for here you will find a place for
profitable investment. To the lazy linn
come, for here you can live with less la
bor than in any other place you can find.
To the mean men, come, for here all the
mean men run for office and occup3
prominent positions in society. To the
Christian, we particularly say come,
your influence and example are sore y
needed, and here you will be for a time
separated from'the noise and strife of
thc busy world. To the wicked man,
we say come, for here you can get alone
and ''cuss' to your heart's content with
no human to hear. There ..Ls room
enough in our State for all a "'home in
Nebraska." L. R. Warner.

The Platte Valley Independent has as
serted that somebody in thc interest of
Gen. Thayer has offered somebody else
who has been elected to tho State Senate
thing, and the Independent very gravely
intimates that this something which
somebody was asked to do was to vote
for the re-election of (en.il'hayer. We
think this is a very mean way to try to
defeat any man. If thc Independent
knows of any villainous transactions,
Lwfiy not corr.e FqUarC ftnl with it, and if
it doe? not it is meaner than dirt to cast
such .insinuations. Ji4 it. ha3 been
of. Wc clip the following very sensible
remarks upon .shis. -.subject from the
Omaha Republican :
What we want to.knotrand what the,
tieople want to know is, who offered the
iribe?and to whom was it offered?- was it
offered at all? or is it a miserable, cowardly
attempt to'duniage a man by inuendo,
without the semblance of a foundation?
Mr. Mobley's affidavit does not reach the
gist of the matter at all. He claims
that he is not at liberty to give thc name,
Lutvll'.at hli intbrmat y'teT - in hu
bwn fitne, al his owti pJrasurtf'tVavow
his responsibility ! If there is any
f ipndation ;fir the ftitcment, why not
substantiate it now? It would be done
if it were .possible. w )V.hy jih'i e'-ion,
this skulking, this C'luivociil method of
Stating tdie. , matter I Tltc object is to
keep the" lie afloat, with an assurance of
varification l'alse as the inuendo itself.
Why leave it to be inferred that a 5 3, WO
bribe was offered for a Senatorial vote,
with a chance" escape bsayiug that it
vav for something else? Is not the
whole design of this base insinuation
'jierfectly transparent? By such infa
mous methods it is hoped to shake
the confidence of the lie publicans of Ne
braska in Gen. Thayer.

The Paris government h'is just re

Tho centre of Frederick Charles ar

A cavalry division, followed by a force

The whole army of the Prince comprises
11 divisions; in all, 145.00) men. The
extension of his line over so long a dis
tance causes souie anxiety at Versailles.
Two divisions are operating in the coun
try about Dijon, while there are in Lor

divisions. These armies, if ranks were

A committee was allowed to come

The Doming post will tcii the exact
truth about the reported proposal for an

Lyons, with a viev: of a speedy meeting
and efiiceinncy of the coding Congress on
Eastern questions, that an arniistiee to

of his colleague, Mr Robertson, re-elected
for the term commencing March,
1371. The credentials of Messrs Farrow
and Whitely, Senators elect from (.b orgia
were taken from the table and referred
to Committee on Judiciary.
Bills were introduced by Mr. Carpen
ter, granting land to th? State cf Wis
consin to aid in thc construction of a
railroad from Milwaukee to Lake Super
ior, via (1 recti Ray, Wisconsin; by Mr.
Kellogg, to aiil in the construction of a
railroad and telegragh line from A'irmil
lionville, Louisana, to Marshall, in the
Sute of Texas, there to coyncct with thc
Texas Pacific railroad; by Mr. Spencer,
confirming the hind grant in aid of the
Selma, Rome and Dalton railroad in the
States of Georgia and Alabama. All of

Mr. McCrecry asked leave to intro
duce a resolution, notice of wnieh he
gave yesterday, proposing an investiga
tion with the view to the restoration of
the Arlington Estate to the widow of
Gen. Robert E. Lee, the removal of the
grave yard on thc premises, and restitu
tion for any incumbrance placed there in
the interest of the government. A de
bate ensued, which took 1 '-d range
and became at times, acrimonious. The
Repu' liean Senators took strong grounds
against any disturbance of the bones of
the loyal dead at Arlington.
Mr. Edmtms said, in the course of his
remarks, that Gen. Lee was dead, and
the only regret right minded people
could have was. that ho had not died,
either in his youth, his patriotic man
hood or earlier than he did by the hand
of thc law.
Mr. Sumner said the resolution was
I the representative of the sentiments of;
Democratic minority.
Mr. McCrce -y rcpiieel that he alone
originated it, and was responsible for it.
The feature of the debate was upon
the abstract question of the riaht of the
Senate to prohibit a member from intro
ducing any legislation of whatever kind.
The debate lasted t lire r hours, and at
Jin; conclusion, after a refusal to allow
Mr. MeCreery to withdraw his reemc-t
and the rejection of the motion to lay
request on the table, a vote was taken
on giving leave to introduce the resolu
tion, and was denied by a vote of 4 to 54.
The yeas were Messrs. Fowler, Hamilton
MeCreery and Yickers.
The House resolutions of respect to
the memor3' of Robert Ridgeway, late
Representative from Virginia, was ad
opted. Mr. Sprague offered a resolution for
an investigation into cirtain char-res made
against him of complicity with ii adulent.
cotton transactions during the war.
Adopted.

of July next ail laws allowing franking
ing privileges', as amended thereto by
V elker, allowing newspaper exchanges
