The Oniawa Ihmhl makes little of an
article in the fftpuMican -on the suhject
cf the I ridge lot-ation, which tring St,
A. D. Bdlcomhc to the font with a
l-onn-1, an! n threat to expose things
tjpnerally, un!e.-3 Pr. Miller "comes out
in his i.sFtio of to-morrow morning and
t,-anfti?se that ho knowingly misrepre
sented" the article in the HepnlJimn.
Dr. Miller has no Mr.' Thoinaa to deal
with in (hid mutter, but a St. A. P.
Balcotnbc himself, a man who means
every wcrl hj say, ami one who dares
to fulfill, to the letter, hi- threat of ex
posure. Coaic down, Dr., and mr.kc

-tiHiiuhft. noon Mr. Morton's cluiuj to the
-Haitnc land-! near Lincoln. It lias often
ciiarp d all the crimes in the category of
"rascality " upsv.i Mr. Morton, and quite
zs i'nquer.t'y that the editor of thi.- pa
per was interested in what it Ins grown
l.oare in calling "a steal." To these
-l"i?ion of p.Tst nal ina ijnity towards
.Ir. Morten we iiave given ua attentso:i,
aud do not now ftoop to his defence, but
we notioa the Ibllowin in ordrr to say a
word :
''Milbr knows of thi rasia'itf, and
t!oj3 not d.ira to endorse it."
'?Ir. Mu toa's claim to these salt Ian Is
a purely le.il niaticr, and itj validity
will be linal!y dctci mined l y the court--.

Thia is the Crt time Dr. Miller has al
luded to the ir'alt Land Steal (and we
i::ist that it was a "steal" cf the Cr?t
magDitvde). There is one very noticeable i
feature in the above, to-wit : th.at the
Dr. "doas not dara to endorse" the
r.ttal, yet attempts, by verbiage, to ,o:i.
Tey the ilea that it was a'l a fair trans
ition. While it may be a "purely le
gui (jue.'tlon," and one which will be
"Cnally determined by the courts," yet
it is a 'juof tion in the solution of which
ercry t-itizen cf Nebraska is financially
interested. When Dr. Miilor says he
"jeithor knows or believe." in any ras
cality connected with it," we are at a
loss to know what would be required to
constitate rascality in his judgmrnt. We
certainly think Mr. Morton's own test i
mony, especially when taken with that
of Mr. I 'ray, stamps the transaction as
one of the most villainous ever perpe-
trated in the SMte, and nothing but the rupture existed. The war for the sup
magnitude of the steal, and the fact predion of the Cuban rebellion was cx
. . c .u ir ceedineiv popular with the p-mish peo-
that it w.-.s from th"5 public, gives it any i , . r' ; . , , r i

towards "rascality," ?hit is it? Per
haps if the voice of Gov. Sam. Dlack
could be hour I from its "narrow house,"
he could tell yoa something of the Ras
cality" connected with this matter.
There is a statement in the above item
which we desir to corrpct. The Herald
Fpeaks cf our "personal malignity to
wards Mr. Morton" as being the cause
i f o.:r exposure of this matter. "We
desire to say that we have known Mr.
Morton for many years, and neither har
bor nor have cause to harbor a single ill
feeling toward him. In fact, so fir as
we know, our personal telationi with
Mr. Morton are nnd always have been
of the mo.t flimsy character. Nei
ther do we believe that in his private af
fairs he is at i! "rascally" cr untrust
woithv : on the contrary, we believe his
r ,w..-.r. 1
charactor, and that he would despise to
wrong his neighbor out of a dollar.
The gront difficulty with Morton (and
perhaps IV. Miller is not entirely free
from the same fault). i3 that the political
school in which he received his training
taught that it was no harm to rob the
public, provided you could do it without
a?tua?!y takipg the coin from the aults.
Hi-i id-as of individual rest.oiisibilit v to
the public were loose, r.eace be would
endeavor to wrong the State or the Gen- I
erai o-ernmeriL out ot a lew tnousana i
-f' . . ,. ., i
acres of valuable Saline lands, when he
would have said that the man who took
the same method to rob his neighbor of
his inheritance was a grand seoua irc-1.
A loving heart and pleasant counten
ance are commodities which a man
should never fail to take home with htm.

man that his wife ant children could
truly say of hiui, "lie never brought a
frown or uuhappincsj across his thresh

A doctor lately informed his friends,
in a laree company, that he had been
eight days in the country. "Yes,"
s;tj 1 one of the pnrty, "it hrs been an
nounced in the papers." "Ah," said the
doctor, stretching bis no -k importantly,
"p.ay, in what t-r;:i?'' -Well, as
well a I can remember, in the following:
' There were last week seventy-five
deaths less than the week before !"
The system of partial dessieation by
currents of refrigerated air, which was
so successfully applied to the cargo of
Texas beef on the steamer firefly, has
been applied with equal success for the
preservation of poultry, gam, and deli
cate fruits. IV-iches in mid-winter and

of the 23d, which everybody present
seemed to erj'y with genuine heartiness.
Oa Saturday morning the weather
was very cold and windy, but by noon it
moderated so that it became quite pleas
ant. The result was the gathering was
a grand success: It was held in the
stone school house, which was tastefully
decorated with evergreens brought from
the Platte.
At the appointed time the house was
called to order by Joseph Gdmoie, E q.,
followed by some very good vocal music;
after which the Rev. Wui. E. Bassctt
addressed the children making some
very appropriate remarks, suitable to
the occa.-ioii. Music again followed, and
at its close, the curtain, which hid the-!
beautiful tree from sight was icmoved,
uh-closing S'lntit Clous in full regalia,
trr the happy children. After the en
thusiasm had subsided the committee
proceeded to distribute the presents.
During tile distribution ol the prizes
his majesty's apparel took fire, which
gave to the scene an electrical appear
ance. The flames were, however, soon
extinguished, and the distribution went
on, and at its close, some heartfelt relig
ious remarks were made by Rev. Mr.
Gage.
Many appropriate presents were
made, two of the happy recipients of
which were Mr. J. 11. Heed and Mr. J,
Bennett.
After singing again all retired to their
i.otnes feeling that they had spent a few
hours in a very pleasant manner.
Respectfully, S. J. II.
On Friday eve'dng last the following

There is a female society in Stockton.
California, known as the -"Old Hens."
It was f riin d in opposition to a society

The s'ory i told of a good deacon who

faith and to iu.-ke him more spiritual to
keep bim on a sina'l ala y. We have
known otli'-r pi'oii'c who m-iin'ahi"d the
sum; opinion But we never found any
body wli . thought it equally good for
himself. It is because th brethren have
so much ninr.' grain! than ministers that,
it is so much safer for th"m to give
themselves to money making?
"May it please your honor," exclaim
ed a juryman, "I am deaf in one ear."
"Then you m iv be excused, as. it is

A negro member of the Texas Legis

largo roil of greenbacks in his hand,
looking at his pil--, and chuckling so loud
that be. attractod the attention of a by

"You see that money?' "Yes." "Weil,
bos, I ju-t got that for my vote. I'se
been bought four cr five tinios in my life,
but di is de lust time I eber got de

Mnk Twain recently said a good
thing about the Pilgrim Fathers. "The

eou.niy and home for the sake of having
freedom on a foreign shore, to enjoy
their own religion, and at ihe - a ne time
prevent other folks from enjoying their."
Al i' a-na fell a tale of horror. Three
disunited men robbed the wife of a tax
collector of the pub ic fund, and then
ordered her to serve supper. She did
so, and put arenicin the tea. On strip
pine the dead bodies of their disguise,
one proved to be her husband, who had
taken thi means of stealing the peo
ple's money.
A pious Louisville Editor trusts that,

This wonderful vegetable restorative
H the sheet-anchor of the feeble and de
bilitated. As a tonic and cordial f jr the
aged and languid it has no equal among
stomachics. As a remedy for the ner
vous weakness to which women are es
pecially subject, it is superseding every
other stimulant. In all climSites, tropi
cal, temperate or frigid, it acts as a
specific in every species of disorder
which undermines the bodily strength
and breaks down the animal spirits.
