It has. now become generally under
htoad that- Gov. James will not call an
extra -session of thj Legislature, and
people treat he freer in consequence.
While it is well understood and felt that
yt& need legislation in certain quarters,
yet the feeling is almost universal that if
u session is to be held at all it should be
under the adjournment of last winter, in
order that the representatives might
have liberty to legislate upon any and all
subjects which seemed to them just and
proper and not be subjected exclusively
to- th ideas of the acting Governor. lie
might embrace in his call all subjects
that he knew of upon which legislation
would be needed by the people, and yet
i'jil frhott of the desires of the people.
Let the peoples' representatives act in
dependently and unrestrained, and meet
cu the day to which they adjourned.

The Plattsmouth Herald is still bark
ing at us, and wants us to 8peak out
about certain alleged corruptions at Lin
volav promising, if we will do so, that we
bhaliaave ''its support and assistance in
proclaiming and cxpoMiijj the wrong."
The profler is respectfully declined.
lu order to make our efforts at "p; ocluim
inr and exposing the wrong" more suc
cessful, we deem it desirable to keep the
paid apologi.it and defender of every con
victed public thief in the State on the
side on which it takes as natural! as a
duck docs to water. Omaha Herald.
Whether the Htruld respectfully"
or disrespectfully declines our proffer,
it make3 but little difference to us. We
knew, when we called upon it, that it
would not state any facts iu regard to the
matter in question, for it never does bus
iness in that way. The matter in ques
tion was the Jnrsh. controversy ; and
now we say again, if tha Herald, or any
other paper or person will show wherein
Dr. Larch has done wrongly, we are
ready and anxious to condemn hiui. And
we will further say that t!i3 in
dications are agint Dr. Larch
iu our judgement, but that is no reason
why a public journal should declare him
a scoundrel without giving the reasons
for so doing. Iu reply tothe latter part
of the above extract, we have but few
words to say. It is the strongest evidence
tdiat what we have said "of the Herald
is correct. Dr. Miller speaks of us as
"ihe;Wt apologist and defender of every
convicted public thief in the State .'
This is in keeping with the general
coarse of the Herald to make bold and
reckless assertions to sustain its course
when it has not facts to sustain it. If
we have ever been paid for any services,
rendered as a journal Lt, eithrr in defend
ing thieves cr exposing thciu, it will
certainly require but litt le effort on the
part of Dr. Miller to substantiate the as.
sertion lie makes in the above. We
call upon him in this casj as in others,
and ask him to give his prcof for what
he assert?. "Will Dr. Miller be man
enough to either give the basis for his
assertion or acknowledge Lis wrong in
ui:king it ? We await his reply.

From the Floyd County (Iowa) Adrocate
Last Monday, a German called at
Goodhue, Andrews & Co's Saw mill, to
gaze in wonder at the various and com
plicated machinery. Among other
things that he saw, was a small
circular saw tawing faster than any
thing he.ever saw saw before. Its rapid
motion fascinated him ; he reached out
his right index finger toward its ill-defended
periphery, (for the circumference
of a saw in swift motion lojks to to at
the base of the teeth, aud not at il.eir
points, when, t j his surprise, the end of
Lis fiegjr disappeared in an instant, and
tolled away to the other tide of the saw.
The man tied up the stump in his
handkerchief, whereupon Mr. Andrews
noticing him, came up and inquired
what v:t the matter. The victim of
misplaced confidence replied : "Mist her
Andrews, I never comes to see your mills
before. I seed dis ling goiug mound so
fa.-. i ; I sticks ui:ie linger to him like
di;-; and mine Goot!'r Ia explaining
Ids mishap the German touched his left
fore finger to the saw, and that flew off.
Turning to AnJrews iu almost breath
less a.iionishment, the man exclaimed,
"Mr. Andrews, 1 never comes to see
your mills pelbre ; I se him ; I never
coui"s to scj him again !" And wrap
ping that finger in his handkerchief, he
started for a doctor's cfli.e, and disappeared.

Chicago, with many of her elevators

There never was, such an opportunity for

in many branches of trade it is embraced;
but the large produce stream continues

There is only one Territory of any
size, and nsver has been but one, occu
pied by any considerable population,
from which woman is absolutely exclud
ed. Yet such a place exists to day, and
has existed for centuries. As far back
S3 history '.caches , to all females it h:is
been forbidden ground. This bachelor's
Arcadia is situated on a bold plateau
between the old peninsula of Acre, in
the Grecian Archipelago and the main
land. Here, iu the midst of cultivated
fields and extensive wocdlawns dwell a
m-nustic confederation of Greek Chris
tians with twenty three convents, and
numbering moic than seven thousand
souls, and cot one of the monasteries
dates from a latr time than the twelfth
century. A few soldiers guard the bord
ers of this ante-female laud and no wo
man is allowed to cross the frontier.
Nor is this all; the rule is extended to
every female creature, and from time
immemorial no cow, hen, duck or goose
has been permitted to make acquaint
ance with hill or valley cf Monnt Athos
Territory. A traveler was startled by
the abrupt question: "What soit of hu
man creatures are women?" The very
idea of woman, whether as mother, wife
or sister, is almost lost. To all woman
haters; to ba-.-helors of over forty years
standing; to all men who seek refuge
from the wiles and ways of the opposite
sex, this region can be safely recommend
ed aj a haven of refuge.

In answer to a correspondent in South
ern Illinois who wants to know how to
keep hens i'rom setting, a western editor
thn-iiise and explains:
There are several very good waye.
One plan is to make them into pot pies
about seventeen days before they exhibit
any such evidence ochicke n-beartedoess'
Another good way is to watch the hen
when she begius that peculiar clucking,
indicative of a de?ire to matriculate,
wash her in sweet milk, put mustaid
poultices upon her feet, and hang her up
by the neck in a dark clothes-press for
ninety-three or ninety four hour.
Should the demoralized biddy be cut
down before the time for set! ing she will
probably set out for some other locality.
Another good way would c to read the
riot act, when, if they will not disperse,
wallop tli-JLu gently over the head with
a brick, sled shoe, chunk of stone, or a
horsc-hocf with a shoe on. After ail
these devices and contrivances have
been applied and fail, if the old hen
won't behave herself, why let hcY set!
A Beautiful Thought.
When the summer of youth i3 slowly
wasting away in the nightfall of ace,
and the past becomes deeper aud deeper
and life wears to its close, it is pleasant
to look through the vista of time upon
the sorrows and felicities of our earlier
years. If we have a home to shelter,
and hearts to rejoice with us, aud friends
have been gathered together around our
tire-ides, the rough places wayfaring will
have been worn and smoothed away, in
the twilight of life, while many dark spots
we have passed through will grow bright
er and more beautiful. Happy indeed
are those whose intercourse with the
world ha- not changed the tone of their
holier feelings, cr broken those musical
chords of the heart, whose vibrations are
so melodeous, so tender and so touching
iu the evening of life.
The Canadians object to the claim of
the "Yankees" that Thanksgiving is an
American custom Canada by mere force
of attrition has adopted. They say they
find their authority for it in the Penta
teuch. The weather prophets predict a cold
winter because the corn husks are so
thiek, and an old3bachelor predicts nu
merous weddings because the cabbages
are so large.
