Ordinance Xo. 6.
Erj Herald : I am glad to see such
a change in minds of the citizens in fa
vor of Ordinance No. G. They are' be
ginning to see that it will be better for
:di to iiav the license of ten dollars, and
yet a bridge built with it for .$1,4 JU,
lijun to build it with city orders, draw
ing interest, making it cost the tax
payers nearly twice as much by the time
thev arc naid. with interest I hear
now but two complaints against the 1
cense. First the increased pay of the
officers. To that 1 have nothing to say.
I leave that with the Council, believing
they will do what is right, in the matter
Second, tliat it is not etiual, that the
Council should have put more on the
large merchants and less on the sia'l
ones. Now let us see how the case stands
To make it plain let us suppose two
cases. First a man with ten thousand
dollars assessed capital, and an fother
with five hundred dollars, our taxes are
about 4 per cent. Now one pays to the
State, county, and citj, $150 per year
and the other with $500 pays $22. 50, and
while they are striving in competition
with each other in busines, the Mayor
and Council pass a law to license all
business men for ten dollars each. Both
grumble and don't like to pay it, but
finally do g). Now how does the ca.-.e
stand, the one with the largest capital
pays $400 per year, the other $:J2.oO,
now is that not near enough. Is that
worse than under the old law. Let us
see. Take the bar keeper for instance,
one may have his bar fixed up comforta
ble for his customers, and a stock of li
quors to any amount; the other may not
have stock to the amount of $50, still
both will have to pay $200 license, lor
the same business, regardless of stock.
And again a drayman may have a team
W.orth $400, he will not have to pay any
iuorc license than the niaa with a team
worth $20 or less. They have to pay
the same license for the same privilege.
Mi' friend Ed. Buttery can see nothing
wrong. about it, but he thinks it ought
to be more equal, and I don't know but
ne is right, jjet us compare Lis case
with Mr. Miller's, one of tur draymen.
Miller has a team not worth a $100 all
told, and he pays ten dollars license,
while my friend Buttery has a stable filled
with some of the best stock "in the
country, and with buggies, carriages and
all kinds of vehicles to suit, and just
pays nix. Now, Mr. Editor will you
please tell iue-howuiueh friend B. would
have to pay, to pay equally or in pro
portion to Mr. Miller's ten dollars and
oblige
IlAltltT Dixule.
Al'R I'l'ULIC SCHOOLS.
The last qualification of teachers of
which I will speak is aptness. There
are great differences here in persons of
the same education and general abilities.
Some teachers are as much confined to
the text book as some lawyers are to
their briefs, and some ministers to their
notes. They cau ask the questions in
the book and that is about al! ; they
have no ability to originate new questions
to draw from the circumstances around
them fresh and forcible illustrations, by
which the child is roused and interested.
Their methods are simply a dull tedi
ous plodding through books, that cannot
possibly however perfect and admirable
thay may be have the life and glow of
the living teacher. To study under
them is like driving a heavy dray-horse
up bill in a drenching rain, through
heavy mud in a farm wagon. While to
study under one apt to teach, is like
riding in a phaeton, drawn by prancing
fcteeds over the rolling prairie in the
bright sun light.
Text books are well in their place, but
they do notteach everything needed by
cur children. They do not teach always
in the best way.. Let our teacher teach
botany, geology, ornithology and as
tronomy, not with text books, but with
specimens. Let the children bring them
the flowers and plants, the stones and
shells, that lie in their path to the
hool room, and learn their structure,
habits aud services ; every scholar is a
text for instruction in physiology. Let
the teachers give, once a week, fifteen or
twenty minutes to a childern's lecture on
the anatomy of tho huruan body, on
physiology and the laws of health. Let
the wonders of the starry heavens bo un
folded to the child let the bird that
flies in the air, and the beast in the field,
the insect, all be a text for suggesting
most important information, and for
awakening the child's interested atten
tion. The habit of close accurate observa
tions of the utmost importance. Suceess
in life largely depends upon it. This
habit, a judicious teacher can form in
the child very early. Let him make

At a meeting of the Directors of the
Union Pacific it. 11. Co., on yesterday,
were present several distinguished gen
tlemen from the once far famed city of
Omaha, Nebra-ka, among which we are
pleased to name ex-Senator Thayer,
Senator Hitchcock, lr. Lowe, and the
Hon. John I. Bcdick, the most promi
nent lawyer in Nebra-ka.
The business of these distinguished
gentlemen from the far we-r, was to
make an arrangement with the Unim
Pacific Directory, by which the two Ne
braska roads, the Northwestern and
Southwestern, should have the privi
lege of the use cfthe local depot grounds
of the Union Pacific railroad at Omaha,
and also the privilege of using the Union
Pacific bridge, so as to connect and trans
fer freight and passengers with the Iowa
roads at Council Bluffs, where the Union
Pacific and Iowa roads aro about to
erect large Union transfer and passorgor
depots. Mr. lledick did the talking for
the Omaha delegation, and did it well,
lie spoke of the certainty of the early
completion of the Bridge and the im
portance of the deeJ, conveying to the
Union Pacific their local doiot grounds
at Omaha, proviiing for the riidit fcf way
through the same, and also the u-e of
the Bridge to t nable the Nebraska roads
to reach the terminus of the Union
Pacific at Council lilufl's, a city whi:-h
now ra hates all the important raihoads
in the Northwest; as a condition of great
importance to the railroad interests of
Nebra- ka.
Mr. I J. -dick asserted that unless these
conditkos were accepted bv the Union
Baiiro.ul Co., Omaha would withhold
their deed for the local depot grounds
anl also the ." i ) wlitcti tie-' i:a.l
agreed to give for the locution of the
bndire which saved Omaha iro:u l'ein'
left off the line of the road. This prop
osition from the gentleman west of the
Missouri, seemed fair and .roper, buf
from some cause or other was rejected
by the directory, Jiostou Dtvj Al

The Commissioner of IVn-ior.s wiil
soon issue instruction and new regula
tions for procuring bounty land wairants
through, that oliice. The following in
strticiions wiil be of interest to many:
The acts of Congress now in force
granting bounty land entitle each of the
surviving persons in the following classes
to a certificate or warrant for s ich quan
tity cf laud as shall make, in the w hole,
with what he may have heretofore- re
ceived, ;i0 acies, provided he shall have
served a period of not less than fourteen
days to-w it.
I. Commissioned and non-commissioned
oli'cers, musicians, and privates,
whether of tho regulars, voluuteers,
rangers, or militia, who were regular'y
mustered into the scrv.ee of the Luit. d
States in any of tho wars in which tho
country has been engaged since 17V0,
and prior to March u, 1.55, to-wit:
11. Commissioned and non-com mis
sioned officers, seamen, ordinary seamen,
flotilla men, marines, clerks, and lands
men in the navy m any of said waters.
III. Militia, volunteers, and itute
troops of any State or territory called

tion of competent authority, in time of

stores and supplies.
V. Officers and soldier9 of the Revolu
tionary war, and marines, seamen, end
other persons in the naval service of the
United States during that war.
VI. Chaplains who served with the
army in the several wars of this country.
VII. Volunteers who served with the
armed forces of tho United States in any
of the wars mentioned, subject to mili
tary orders, whether regularly mustered
into the United States or not.
Each of the surviving persons in the
following classes are entitled to a like
certificate for a like quantity of land,
without regard to the length of service,
prov dedhe was regularly mustered in,
to-wit:
I. Officers and soldiers who have been
actually engaged in any battle in any of
the wars in which this country has been
eneaged prior to the war of the rebellion.

In addition to these classes, these acts
also extended to all Indians who have

the provisions of this and all the bounty
land laws heretofore passed, in the same
manner and to the same extent as if the
said Indians had been white men.
Where the service has been rendered
by a substitute, he is the person entitled

widow, such minor child or children, is
entitled to a certificate or warrant lor
the same quantity of land such deceased
person would be entitled to receive under
the provisions of said acts, if now living.
A subsequent marriage will not im
pair the right of any such widow to such
warrant, if she be a widow at the time
of her application. IVrsons within -the
atro of 21 years on the 3 J day of .March,
ls55, are deemed minors within thu
ii.tent and meaning of said law.

good situation in New York. If we
suge.-t that from our suburbs to the
Pacific, there is said to be a reasonable
large stretch of country which would
supply every willing young man on the

he visits us with his lof'ry scorn and in

staive, writing us down forever as a
charlatan or an ass because we would
have him do otherwise. The women
too, who most loudly claim indepen

In obtaining it they write letters to tbi
