PLATlSmOUTH NEBRAKSA., iliUKSDAy, DECEMBER 14 1871. The Oaiaha Bee says: "In the test vote in the Uuited SfatC3 Senate, last evening, by which Blair's resolution to investigate the action of President Grant in dealing with the Ku Klux was tabled, Mr. Tipton was tha only Republican Senator that voted with the Democrats." The Train Liyue of the 2d inst- con tains the speeches made at the organiza tion of the society at Omaha on the 28th of November. Among others we notice a 6tirriug address by Gen. S. 31. O. liiicn, who goes in heavy for Train. It is telegraphed that the President's Message had "no visible influence upon financial circles in New York. It has no visible influence upon anybody or any thing. Omaha Herald. It has had a very visible influence on uch fault-finding sheets as the Herald, if we arc not very much mistaken. Its straightforward, business tone, and the total absence of all political buncombe, has had the effect to eadly disappoint huch papers as the Herald, that looked for something with which they could find fiult. It has had tha ' influence" to knock one cf the props from under, the "do nothing" party. Al.

Thi is the true doctrine, and we hope the suggest ions of the Republican will be heeded. It hug only traveling showmen, theatri cal performers, and others of this class that arc in the habit of swindling print ing cfaces, and need exposing ; but there, i.-j a class cf men who engage in business of various kind who advertise large'yi l.ave any quantity of job work done, get what laoney they can in their pockets, and then ''break," telling their creditors that they have failed, and are unable to pay, but will do so some time. These are really the wort tcoundreli, for they net r.nler the pirb of honesty, and their names should be included in the pub lished list WISr.KlTS THE C'ONSISTEXCT? There are certain Democratic papers in thin part of the world that have done noth ing wnce they came into existence but howl about frauls in our civil service and the injustice of the restrictions of holding office of certain rebel leaders. President Grant, in his message, rec:m uienJs a reform in the civil ccrviee so as to prohibit these frauds, and also the removal of the disabilities. These same Democratic papers find fault with him for doing so, and claim that his motives are not for the general good, but are a Lid for a re-election. These papers would find fau't with the Savior of rnan kfojd, and would accuse him of trickery and deception if he were on earth. They are bound to be displeased with anything that President Grant can do. Since he caused Lee to surrender at Appomattox, he ha3 assumed the form of a devil in carnate in their eyes. SInjor Hall's D.nxrncc. Until recently a photograph of Mayor Hall hung in the council room of the New York University, of which institu tion he i a graduate. The i-tudents learning of his connection with the frauds of the ring resolved that it was a dis grace to allow it to hang there longer. Accordingly, on the day on which the Mayor was summoned to appear before the grand jury they tore it from the wall, formed ia procession, marched through tho hall with it, and then broke it into a thousand pieces. A Mixed A Hair. The Nemaha Valley Railway ComjiaJ ny has commenced suit vs. the Burling ton & Southwestern Railway Com pan y, for $100,X)0 damages caused by the lat ter company not completing its road to Humboldt in arcasonable time according to the agreement The former compa ny alleges that by reason of this neglect it hxs lost the county bonds of Johnson, Lancaster, Butler and Platte counties, also State improvement lands to the value of $200,000. The A. & N. IL It. is also iuixed in the affair, in consequence of the attachinir of $53,000 in Richard son County bonds, which were being is sued to that company as assignees of the B. & S. W. R. R Co. and builders of the prc-ent road in this county. Take it altogether it is a mixed affair, three railroads being involved. Gard ner and Fulton are attorneys for the Ne maha Vallev R. R. and Schoeuheit and Towley for the B. & S. V. and A. & N. R. R. Co s. Mr. Towley is alo attorney and direc tor of tho old Nemaha Valley road, and it is intimated that he will file a dismisal of that suit, the directors never having authorized the commencement of the proeeedinis. Major Loree is the motive power in the matter. Nemaha Valley Journal.' The cross on the Russian flag id pur posed to be thrawd but illiterate old Czar Peter's "mark." A Democratic newspaper has an edit orial on honest men, and it is sparely ne cessary to observe that it has exclusive reference to Republicans.

Three Million Loaned to landless Jlcu without tludor&erst. Sorrowing- Yet Xot Sorrowing. BY PltOF. J. D. BUTLER. BCRLINGTON IOWA, Nov. 21, '71. When Palstaff ent hij page to Mas ter Dumbleton for a satin cloak and of fered his Bond and Bardolph's for pay ment, the answer brought him was that th.3 tailor ' liked not the security," The Knight enraged at his lack of credit, naturally wished that "Dambleion's tongue might be hotter than that of Dives," called him a rascally knave to stand upon security, and cried "1 would as lief they wculd put rattbane in my mouth as stop it with security." Never did Shakf peare hold the mirror up to Nature more truly than iu his picture of the credit seeking Knight. Always and everywhere, he who goes a borrowing, goes a sorrowing. Not only Shylocks and the Rank which is proporly spelled backward as "the Knab," but moit capitalists are deaf adders to most bor rowers, becanse they, as well as FalstaflTs tailor, "like not the security." Capi talists will not lend a poor man money. They demand a mortgage or endorsers. As he cannot endorse, others will not en dorse for him. lie has no lands, or chattels, on whieh he can give a mortgage- Where he is sanguine that he can double the money lie wishes to borrow, they say to him, "you may be robbed or cheated, or your investment may be burned up and your insurance worthless, or you may abscond, or your death may blight tho brightest business prospects" "we like not your security." It L- nothing but the moonshiue of hope, or a "castle in the-air." Again, capitalists fchun putting their investments of almost any kind into the hands of any poor stranger. They are distrustful of his honesty, where there is a chance for fraud, of his competence, where skill is demanded, of his zeal, where he has no interest at stake, and of his vigilance where there are tempta tions to negligence, lie might carve out his fortuue, bat no one will trust him with the tools. Such as these are the relations of capitalists to laborers who are ambitious of obtaining the use of capital, and thus becoming capitalists themselves. These relations must result from prudence on the part of moneyed men. Yet they naturally provoke those aspiring but nsedy young men, whom they hinder from rising to a higher plane. Bat must capital and labor needs bo hostile? Is there no way in which capi talists can be just to themselves and yet geuerous to borrowers? Ye?, they can, by selling them unimproved prairie farms on long credit and low iuterest. Such prairie is equivalent to a loan of its full value. The borrower cannot be cheated out of it for it is not deeded to him till he ha3 finished paj-ing f r it. He can not run away with it. No fire can burn it up. He cannot lessen its value. The labor and money he lays out on it will increase that value. He can not strip it of timber more than he can pull the hair on a bald head. Nor iu such a loan is his honesty, competence, zeal, or vigilance distrusted. He is stimulated to tha exercise of them all both by his fear of losing the sum he paid iu ad vance to- bind his bargain, together with whatever he -lays out to improve his farm, and by his hope of making that farm both pay for itself and support him and his dear ones as soon as possible other borrowing dulls the edge of thrift this sharpens it. We may not believe railroad corpora tions to be more benevolent than other capitalists, and yet the policy of some of them in selling their lands is a specimen of just that kind of loans which we have seen to be most generous to borrowers, building for them, as it were, an inclined plaue on which they can rise easiest from laborers to landlords. The Burlington & Missouri River Railroad Company, within eighteen months onward from April, 1870, sold in Iowa and Nebraska 334,847 acres to 2821 purchasers, mostly on ten years' credit and six per cent iaterest. A large portion of these purchasers had before been only laborers or tenants. Their purchases average one hundred and two hundred acres apiece- Judging by experience where similar experiments have been made, no more than five per cent, of them will fail to finish paying for the farms on which they have, at the time of purchase, advanced one year's interest. "The devil," pays the proverb, "is not so black, as he is painted." So, when men declaim against railroads, let it be remembered that the B. & M. road has furnished 2321 loans amounting iu the aggregate to $3,119,972 00, to men most of whom would have been unable to borrow so much capital from banks, capitalists, or any other source. Its long credit sales will prove to most of these borrowers that "tide in their af fairs which taken at its flood leads on to fortune." It has given them tools to work with. Thus it has rendered the relation between borrowers and lenders more friendly, affording lenders security and borrowers all the loans they can use, and those such as will in most cases be made to pay ftr themselves. Of all helpers who is best? Who but he that gives us a chance to help ourselves? Railroad trains flying like shuttles from far cities to fax cities weave them into a web of union, and a railroad poli cy like that of theB. & M., links together clashes often called antagonistic with a bond lighter than air yot stronger than iron. . ' New York tnobdom has had a hard time in waiting for tho Prince Alexis of Rusia'. In silly toadyism to title- and position, Americans take the lead and make themselves ridiculous. They learn ed nothing by the - Dickens experience, and re enact the same follies at every opportunity. It is tail that Alexander II. Stephens never stops writing an editorial article until his newspaper office runs out of type- v The Grand Duke wore no orders; but General Dix received him on board the Powell with a deck-oration. All fears of the cholera from Russia teem to have subsided; Alexis only brought the Hoopenkoff with him. . Whiskey distilled from Canada thistles is sail to produce a penetrating and ex hilarating effect. Mules like thistles; some men like whiskey. Is there, then, a Darwinian resemblance between the two animals ?. A miserable miser named Chapman, died lately at Fexton, England, worth 50,000. His last wish was that his stick mi'iht be out in his coffin, that he miaht give Old btrattord a thrashing with it when he met him, because he disappointed him of buying some land years ago. . . The Rev. Mr. Vovscy, nn English cler gyman, is malignantly a'luded to by a earning newspaper man as a person who has devised a church ritual of his own, which is not orthodox, but Voysey-versy. In his new litany he has inserted this much-needed supplication, "That it may please Thee to help all literary persons, and the editors of the public press." Two Chicagoans, unaccustomed to worship, debated with the scxtouwhetn er they. would take seats in the parquet or balcony ot a church. Hie total amount of "conscience mo ney" received bv the United States treasurer tiace 1803 is 127,000. It is now proposed to put nitroglycer ine in;o trunks to warn basrgage men against handling them roughly. For some time it was doubtful just what the "New Departure really was The 7th of November cleared up that cloud- It was simply a fulalment ol that prophetic sentence, "Depart ye cursed into everlasting darkness, pre pared for the devil and his angels." Chicago Journal. "If ye have tears to shed Prepare to shed them now." The Odd Fellows of Davenport have sent the suffering Odd icllows ol Lhi cago 300 bushels of onions. A lady who had been traveling in the Argentine Republic crives a sickening account of the annual religious ccremo nv of ftaiiellation. She was present in the principal church in Cordova with a vast multitude, all provided with "dis ciples; the lights were extinguished, and then for ten minutes went on a sound of -lashing flesh, as the poor people laid the instruments of torture on their own tare shouidc:s. A writer in a New York paper says Unfortunately for the health writers, humanity cannot practically be cut iuto parcels and woiked by hygienic machin ery. Men and women will not be forced into diet on Graham bread and abjuring tea and coffee. They stick to their meats and their sauces, their pastries and their six o'clock dinners, smd whue the doctor scolds the patient laughs. Life is not worth haviug if desert is going to be limited to a roasted apple, and it' soups and salads arc to be bauk-ked from the table." In some remarks upon souinanibul ism, a correspondent of the Scientific Anuricin expresses his belief that the whole philosophy in hlecp-walking has its foundation in habit, acquired by dis turbance at some regular hour elevoted to sleep. He says he has noticed that children who are allowed to go to sleep on the floor or lounge in the evening, and afterward, at seme regular hour, are aroused (of course only partially awa kened) and sent to bed, will in time ac quire the habit of sleep-walking. Par ents might well take notice of this state ment. In any case, it is injurious for children to be ia the habit of going to sleep any where in the evening except in their beds. If they are sleepy it is bed time for them, no matter how early it may be. Queen Victoria's Christmas present to the Emperor Alexand?r will be six South Down sheep from the Northumberland folds. Docs she mean to pull the wool over his eyes? Of the severity of the forest fires, the Green Bay, Wisconsin, Advocate relates the-following in describing the fire at Peshtigo : Tho cooler-headed survivors of the great fires at Peshtigo and other points agree ia the statement that the tire did not come upon them generally from burning trees and other objects to the windward, but the first notice they had of it was a whirlwind of flame in great clouds from above the tops of the trees, which fell upon and enveloped everything. The atmosphere seemed one of fire. The poor people inhaled it, or the intense hot air, and fell down dead. Thi3 is verified by the appear ance" of many of the corpses. They were found dead in the roads, and open spaces where there were no visible marks of tire near by with not a trace of burn ing upon their bodies or clothing. At Sugar Bush, which is a clearing four miles wide at some points, corpses were found in the open road between fences, which were only slightly burned. No mark of fire was upon them, but they laid there as if aslttep. This seems to explain why so many were killed in com pact masses. Fences and cleared fields were burned in s-pots and elsewhere not touched. Fish were killed in the streams. A victim of Greeley's handwrit'ng says: "If Horace had written that in-sc-rption on the wall of Babylon, Bel shazzar would have been a good deal more scared than he was." Rev. Robert Collycr preached in St. Louis the other evening. He lost his home and church in the fire at Chicago. He remarked that amidst the desolation and horror there was something more beautiful and noble than anything he had feen in the world before, for the splendid American character then came out in a beauty such as he had never witnessed in his life. He did not hear a lnan moan; he did not see a woman weep." lie a i led that he had cried, but it was because he was an Englishman. Mr. Colder has come up to the emerg ency in the pluckiest manner. Edward Jones (called by the Punch at the time In-i-go Jones), who thirty years ago fell ia love with Queen Victoria aud used to enter forcibly the royal residence sometimes going down the chimneys that he might gaze upon the royal countenance, is just dead in St. Giles hovel. To get rid of the amorous in truder, he was shipped off to Australia, from which land he returned about five years since with the tender passion still burning in his bosom, albeit the lady has grown old and fat. and is a grand moth er. Being suddenly told by somebody, who probably did not know his feelings, that her majesty was hopelessly ill, Ed ward Jones took to his bed aud speedily expired. The Editor of the Albia Spirit wants to find an owner for a gutta-percha ink stand which a gentleman left in his corn crib at night. . The Chicago papers are down on In surance adjusters who wear big watch chains, and who- value a risk at 10,000 when they tak it, and. only at $5,000 when they come ra pay for the I033 of it by fire.
