"phssidest or the senate.
Our ypectal dispatches from Lincoln,
through nc?ect, did not State the fact
that Senator Sheldon of this county,
was selected as President of the Senate
Ly nearly a unanimous rote, tut that
he peremptorily delined the position
on the ground that his qualifications were
not of t!ie tind required to 11 that po
sition. The unmimity with which he
was chosen n a just tribute to Mr. Shel
don, which the people of Ca3 will duly
appreciate.
BrTlTtrt COSVKTED.
We received a telegram at 8 o'clock
last evening, stating that the Senate had
just taken a vote and that Butler had
been adjudged guilty. The vote was
taken on the first article only, that rela
tive to the $17,000, and the vote stood
three for acquittal and nine for convic
tion Hilton, Tucker an ITennant voting
for acquittal, and Gerrard, Brown
Ilawkc, Hascal!, Mfttz, Sheldon, Ken
nedy, Thomas and Cropsey voting fur
conviction. The Senate then adjourned
until ten a. ni. to-day, at which time
they were to vole on the remaining arti
cles. The conviction was upon the evi
dence already published in the Herald,
as no new evidence wa elicited upon
this article. Our own views are well
known upon this question, and we shall
not, at the present time, comment upon
the verdict of the high Court of Im
peachment. AVbat the punishment will
be we cannot telL Whether removal
from oSuce alone, or whether accompaniod
by the severer penalty of disfranchise
ment from herafter holding office, we
cannot say probably only the former,
aj it would "certainly seem that the men
most malicious in this matter have new
accomplished their design.
I, AT EST Flion THE CAPITAL
Last evening, according to the tele
gram in yesterday's issue, the State
Senate voted on the "first article of im.
peacLment" by tpecificntions. Seven
members voted guilty of ail the fpeeifi
eations in the first article. Mr. Gerard
voted guilty as to the "firt specification
only" and Mr, Kennedy, guilty as to the
"first and fourth specifications only,"
and Messrs. Hilton, Thomas, and Tuck
er not guilty of any. The article itself
was, as we understand it, not voted on at
all ; and 3 the .'peciflcations aregermain
to the article, it is a very serious ques
tion whether the verdkt of the Senate
ha3 really found the respondent, David
Butler, guilty as charged in the first ar
tide- This morning at 10 o'clock the
Senate took up the remaining articles
and specifications and the respondent
was declared not guilty of any of them
by a vote of the Senate.

"Come and sit naar rae, and let me
lean on you," said Wilbei force to a
friend, a few minutes before ho died.
Afterward putting his arm around that
friend, he said ; "Lt us talk of heaven.
Do not weep for me. I am happy.
Think of me, and let the thoughts prej-s
you forward. I never knew happme
till I found Chri-r a Savior. Bead the
Bible read the Bibl Let no rtligious
book take its rlac: through all my per
plexities and distresses I never read any
other book., and I never felt the wntit
of any other. It has beeu my hourly
-tudy. and all my knowledge of the doe
trines, and all my acquaintance with the
fxpcricncc and the reality of religion,
have been drawn from the Bible only, I
think religious people do not read the
Bible enough. Boks about religion
may be useful enoimh, but they will not
do in the place of thesimi le truth of the
Bible."
Clone Oat Forever.
Like drooping, dying stars, our dearly
loved ones go away from our fichu The
stars of our hopes, our ambitions, our
prayers, whose light ever sdiine before
us they suddenly pale in tho firmament
of our hearts, aa 1 their place is left
empty cold and dark. A mother' t
&tajy. pofi and earnest light, that
beamed through all our wants and sor
rows: a father's strong, quick liht,
that kept our feet from stumbling in the
dark and treacherous ways; sifter's light
so mild, so pure, so constant and so firm,
shining upon us frern gentle, loving eyes,
and persuading us to grace ad goodne-s;
a brother's light, forever sleeping in our
soul, and illuminating our goings and
comings; & friend's lisjht, true and tru-ty
gone out forever? No! the light has
not gone out. It is shining beyond the
btar, where there is -no night and no
darkness, forever and forever. Theodore

Happy Women. .
A happy woman 1 is not she the very
sparkle and sunshine of lift? A woman
who is harpy because she can't help it
whose smile even the coldest spring of
unMortune cannot dampen. Men make
;i terrible mistake when they marry for
beauty, for talent, for stylo the sweetest
wives are those who possess the magic
secret of being contented under anycir
ijaaistances. - Rich or poor, high or low,
it makes no difference ; the bright little
fountain of joy bubbles up just as musi
cally in their hearts. Do they live in a
jottage? the firelight that leaps up on
its humble hearth becomes brighter than
ilie gilded chandeliers in an Aladdiu
palace. Do they eat brown bread, or
think cold water from teh well? it affords
them more solid satisfaction than the
jniilionaire's pate tie fuis gras and
iced champagne. Nothing ever goes
wrong with them ; no tronble so serious
tor them, no calamity so dark and deep,
that the sunlight of tht-ir smiles will not
"make the bet of it." Was ever the
stream of life so dark and unpropitious
that the sunshine of a happy face falling
across its turbid tide, would not awake
an answering gleam? Why, these joy
ous tempted people don't know the good
thy do.

Tho following id a wpy of the mca
sage rent to the Senate and House of
Representatives by Gov. Butler relative
to-the return of the disputed $17,000 :
To the Ilonoralle Speaker of the House
of Re?resentalices :
1 take the liberty upon the re-assembling
of your honorable body to couimu
nicate with you upon the subject of the
five per cent fund.
Early in the spring of 8f9, oon after
the collection of that fund, I made a
loan from the State of Nebraska of $16,
8S1.2f. and afterwards amply secured the
same by bond and mortgagee.
This was. done ia perfect good faith,
and with the understanding that the
loan was perfectly legal.
Many of my fellow citizens have dif
fered with me as regards the legality of
the loan and the sufficiency of the r-ecu-ritics,
and while I am unchanged in tny
opinion on the subject, and conscious
that I have at no time done other than
my duty in the premises.
I am ready and willing (in order that
this subject of disention may be dis
posed of), to deposit in the State Tiva -ury,
the full amount of said loan with
interest from the 2oth day of May, 1809
the date of the arrival of the Fund
in Lincoln, in charge of the Deputy
State Treasurer, and I ask for the pas
sage of an act providing for the cancel
lation of the securities.
I sincerely trust this proposition on my
part may be received in the same spirit
in which it is made, and that harmony
may again prevail in the administration
of our State Government.

One evening, asmv father played a tune
on the violin, my mother roe, a d in fhe
most graceful manner possible to con
ceive, commenced to dance around the
room. I didn't know what to make of
it. I was speechless with consternation
and delight. Mr father looked on in
surprise. Never in the whole course of
my life had I seen such a thing attempted
in mv lather s house. It was delicious.
and I cot a lesson then which has lasted
me ever since. I think to this d y that
if mv mother had danced oftener and
said the catechism a littlj less, it wou!

The Palpit mid Ii!oim1 Work.
As to tho question frequently aked
whether American congregations are not
too exacting, or whether a conscientious
miui.-ter can hone to sustain himself if
he undertakes to meet the requirements
of the pulpit and pastoial woik, i have
this to say : The pastor can hope to do
both. Every man has just to much
nervous force. Now if he expends ail
that in sermon composition, in pulpit
efforts, and then goes out to meet the
demands upon his sympathy in his par
ish, he will certainly break down. No
man can long sustain both up to the
level of the best, of which he is capable.
I know that in my own experience, to
visits of condolence, or where heavy
draughts ar made upon IU3 sympa
thies, really exhaust -me as isnch as
F reaching a sermon of an hour's length
n my own congregation parochial wort
is done mainly by proxy ; by our dea
cons and elders, our committee, and our
Sunday school workers A man who
lays out his ytrngtn lor the pulpit ought
not to undertake, with all the other de
mauds upon him, to go forth and ex
haust himself the second time in pa-for-al
labors. As to the objection that a
minister cannot know how or what to
preach to the people whoso needs he ha.
no idea of from personal intercourse
with them, I answer that I do know
their needs and troubles. How ? Don't
you suppose there is enough talking
done in every church to ntvea' the con
dition of the flock ? It seems to me by
report, by letters in fullest evidence.
Au 1 then, if I could go from hou.c to
house, I should still have testimony to
rely upon I shonl J have to take their
own reperts as my guide. When a man
preaches largely out of his own con
sciou-ness and experience, he must
preach very largely to human nature,
touching it in in a great manv poinM a
to its sorrows and needs. Henry Ward
Beecher.

The entire absence of spirit in the ma
jority of written sermons induces the re
iigioui press to urge that preachers
should trust to the spirit of the moment
if they have anything of moment to say.
The difficulty of such advice is that, if a
man cant extemporize there's no way in
which he can tomporize, bungling on
his part may make his hearers' temper
rise.

Prevention of flast.
Dr. Craco Calvert states that iron im
mersed for a few minutes in solution of
carbonate of potash or soda will net rust
lor years, though exposed continually in
damp atmosphere. It was believed
long ago by soap and alkali merchants
that the caustic alkalies .(soda and pot
ash) protected iron and steel from ru-t,
but that the components ot these salts
preserved the same property as they co
in a cautic state now. It does not seem
to matter whether the solution be made
with fresh or sea water.
Car of Horses.
Grace Greenwood does not acrree with
Mrs Stowe that the harnessing and driv
ing of a horse are unfeminine employ
ments, fcbe says :
I have always been inclined to credit
the account which makes Jean d' Arc a
stable girl. There was that in her of fire,
aod danh, and splendid daring which
only equine communion and companion
ehip can inspire. In all that best fitted
her lor her wonder! ul, anomalous career
she learned more from horses than homi
lies. Supernal influence guided her,
but exuinal energies entered into her
blood and muscles. For me, the actual
daily care of a horse were far from a
hardship. It may bo a coarse employ
ment, but it is congenial. I never was
feminine enough to tend a canary, or
clean house for an old gossip of a parrot;
but I can look after the comforts and de
cencies of a stall tnot faithfully. I
never could comb or curl a French poo
dle ; but I can groom a horse, upon oc
eusioo, and after a fashion."
