12 3 S3rT" SM8UTHJNE3RAKSA.. THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 1872. BAi. lO ADS. The Nebraska C y Chronicle ayg : "The conference wi the County Com tuissloners yesterday pyas an interesting affair. The people f.pm all parts of the country were presents cl a general cut cussion ensued, a fall report of which will be found elsewhere in our eolumns. One idea prevailed, except in the case of a few individuals, that is we must have railroads and all other public improve ments which are necessary to building up cities and cocatr.es. At the meeting spoken of above, there was a very full ' attendance of delegates Irom toe aiL. .renc Dreoiacis oi too coua-i ty, and a vote of the county piecincts showed thirty delegates ia favor of call- in? an election, and fourteen against. Ths cLy was unanimous for the call. 4 'The Commissioners annouced that , they would take the petition and report from the Drccioets under advisement. and meet azain in the Court House on Tucsdav. February 20th. at 2 o clock P. M.. and render their decision whether they would call a special election or not COLFAX OB WII.SOW. We said that in case of the withdraw al as announoed of Mr. Colfax from political life, Senator Wilson would be a strong and if nominated ly the Na tional Republican Contention in whote hands the whole matter is to he left a Terr acceptable candidate to the lte- publioan party for which he had done so much and of which lie had so long been a most efficient and influential lead er. C. B. Thonuis, in Omah Repub- uenn. The above ia in reply to an assertion on our part that Mr. Thou.as favored the nomination of Senator Wilson instead of Mr. Colfax for the vice-Presidency, which Mr. Thomas now denies. The above is a part of what Thomas raid upon the subject, but not all. He fur ther said, in the same article, that he raw no "good reason why the people should not take Mr. Colfax at his word when he declined office. If this is not the exact language, will Mr. Thomas give his readers exactly what he did say upon that point. He certainly said enough to convicco every sane mau who read his article that bo favored the nomina tion of Senator Wilson over that f Mr. Colfax. If we are mistaken many of the leading .papers of the country are also mistaken in Mr. Thomas's position, for they all understood his article as we did. TIIOSB CABBIXES. So much has been said by the Omaha press in regard to thosa carbines shipped to Lincoln, recently, it seems but fair that the public should know the truth. These guns had been sent to Omaha for the use of the guards there, but be ing unserviceable, they were to bo re turned to Lincoln, of tho Staia Arsenal sad were shipped to acting Governor James. There was no connection be tween them and the meeting of the Legislature, tnd the effort to make capi tal by publishing statements injurious to tho State, is reprehensible in the ex tremo. The lying reports seat out from Nebraska have done us more harm t'jan all the truthful statements made in the next twelve months ean eerrect. A CONSTITUTIONAL. L1WTKB. 1 ne umana Tribune nns discovered a new clause in the Constitution and has now come to tba conclusion that Gov ernor James can decide on what subjects tho Legislature shall legislate on, after they meet. Of course he won't object to their tak ing action on the following subjects: 3rd. To declare tho cases in which any office shall be deemed vacant and also too manner ot nuing the vacancy where no provision is made for that pur pose in the Constitution. 4th.

Supt Sickela is out in the Omaha pa pert this morning in a long letter giving the situation of the enow blockade on the U. P., in which bo says : The road is now open from Omaha to Laramie, distance Sva hundred and seventy-two miles : and from Wash-a-kie to Ogden, distance two hundred and twen ty-eight miles. The obstruction are be tween Waah-a-kie and Laramie, embrac ing the divide of the continent, being one hundred and seventy-nino miles. There are now seven west-bound pas Fenger trains detained near Separation, which is twenty-nine miles distant from the western boundary ot the blockade : an 1 there are two east-bound passenger t ains at Ureen ICiver waiting until the west-bound trains shall pass the block ade. At various points alone the road there are about eight hundred cars of west bound freight and about two hun dred ears of freight east-bound. The Boston Traveler announces the disoovery and praotioal application of a t-tct ot inucn interest to ail who use sta tionary engines. It hf s been found that tbe waste steam from one eneiot can be used to heat the boiler of another if it stands sufficiently near, and this without requiring ex'.ra fuel, firemen or ehim- mm tsindd is equal if not superior to that of &1" and deter 6ood men from tokin of thc engine from which the waste steam Cce. Who, that has a particle of self- v received. The heat of tho second boiler is obtained by passing the waste steam through its flues, and it is filled with a volatile liquid mainly composed of the bisulphate of carbon, which boils at 1:10 rahrenheit, and at tho tempera ture ot exhaust steam gives a pressure in the boiler or sixty pounds to the inch The vapor formed in this boiler is used to drive the second engine instead of steam, and after beine used is condensed . by cooling, pumped into the boiler again and used continually with small Inai The iournal referred ta asserts that two engines arranged on this plaa are now running in East Boston, and that the power of the vapor engine is greater than the ether. Horace Greely hoard that they had 8G0 pounds of butte from sizteen vw, at Danbury. Ho bought a lot of coir at once and is going to have them ground up and churned.

To-day is the time fixed by the proe. lamation of Governor Hascall for the meeting of the Legislature, and as come of the members perhaps a queruia have already gone to the capital, we de Eire to briefly rericw the situation, and present the matter in a fair and candid light to our readers. Acting Governor James brcarne Governor by virtue of his office as Secretary of State upon the impeachment of David Butler, but when Gov. James leaves the State, for no mat ter what purpose, that minute his func tions as Governor cease, and the Presi dent of the Senate becomes the acting Governor until his return. The Constitution provides who shall be Gowrnor in bis absence, and any ar rangement with the'rivate Sacretary as to peifoncipg dut'.ss which tho Govern cr alone could perform, doe3 not change m j .ucitcr .u uu icsu juokiwsu, and the whole question is settled, for no one will, probably, disputa the fact that Governor Jain:s could if ho saw fit, call as extra session ; if eo, Senator Hascall, acting Governor of ths State, having all the power of James in his absence, could just as legally make the call, and the binding effect would bo the.same. If the no-fibers of the Legisla ture regard Scuater Ilascall's call as le gal, ther will be a meeting of that body'to-day ; though in all probability very many will remain away. If legislation is to be done, the whole Legislature, and not a part, should be there, to see that no doubtful measures pass, and if possible do something to re lieve the State from the stigma fastened on it by the disgraceful acts of the past scsskn. Legislation upon some of the matters expressed in the call, is unquestionably needed : and the fast that the Legisla ture did not attend to the wants of the people, does not lessen their importance ow. As to the wisdom or propriety of making the call, there may be some ques tion ; but as to it3 legality we think thBre can be none. The right to revoke, we think, is still more questionable, and it tne state could be relieved by the Legislature of some of the odium that surrounds the office of Governor, thus far, at least, their acts would be endorsed. What they may do at Lincoln to-day, no man can even guess ; but it it be good the people will "endorse ; if bad, they will as swiftly condemn, and the present Legislature will pais out of sight, and history will record the fact that re- form inaugurated two years ago has borne its fruits. LKTTXKS FEIOH THK PEOPLE. Eldsxd, Neb., Feb. 12, 1872. jiriend llATHAWAT : in your issue of the 8th hist., I find a suggestion "that C. B. Thomas, Editor of the "Triblican" should, in order to remove any doubts of his Republicanism, place at the head of its editorial colums, standing notice, that "the editor of this paper is a Republican." The suggestion reminds me of a reli gious anecdote that occurred severs years smco, near the Hub. A pious brother, imbued with zeal, "prayed that God would bless his dear people, and pour out his holy spirit upon them unti there should not be room to contain it.' An Irishman present whispered to his neighbor "why, that would bo a waste. So in the case of the aforesaid editor : I think that such a notice would be a sheer wae of ink, as no one at all ac quainted with the course of the Iribli- can, under his editorial management would for a moment be deceived by it. On the contrary, they would still vouch that he "looked like a Democrat, smclled like a Democrat, and by G d, he must be a Democrat" LIBERTY OP THE PRESS VI LICENTIOUS NE53 OP TUE PRES3. Ia coatrovertiog the Saline Post and Omaha Herald, you have hit the nail on the head in the following language : "We believe the only difficulty in th whole mattet is that the press of this State, for purposes be known (if known at all) to those who control the columns of the various papers, have been too fast and too unjust in these wholesale charges of corruption without knowing whether their charges were true or false.' You can reader no greater service to the State, than to pursue this subject, and draw a elear line of demarkation between the licentiousness of the press aud the liberty of the press. While I would not abate one iota of the liberty of that ev er present educator of the people that vigilant sohtinel of publio liberty and conservator of tho brave the press ; yet would I gladly see it stripped of those licentious characteristics, which are disgrace to journalism. Look over the press of this State, or of the whole country as for that, and what do we find : charge after charge of fraud end corruption, accommpanied with such intoresting epithets as liar, thief, villain, libertine, and bribe taker. Such licentiousness in the press of the country only tends to violate public mor respect, desires to be put in a position where, though pure as Daniel, he is sure to be the recipient of every charge which malice, or party ranoor can invent. Take the ease cf David Butler, as an i lustration : had he been guilty of a tithe of that which was charged, he should to day bo at work on the Penitentiary. But be is not And probably many o those who preferred the charges, only hoped that he would prove "a good enougb Morgan till after election" (vide Thurlow Weed.) . Well, the snow squall is over, and have scribbled more than you will care to read. Bat I feel the better for it. Yours truly, M. Stocking.

TUB FBF.S1DEMY. Letter fromTlce Prrsident Colfax In Itrsard to the Nomination. Washington City, Feb. 7, '72. Mv Dear, Sir: I have iust read in the Chicago Tribune of the 5th, the foU owiug special dispatch trout Indianap olis: ; , 'The friends ot ice I'residcnt Uoi- fax, in the State, appear-to be making a esncertcd effort for the Republican nomination for tho Presidency. I do not know who is the author ot this telccram, but tru.n that you will allow me space in your columns to say that no such "ef:ort" is being ina lo anywhere by my wish or authority. Publicly au't privately, m Fpeecaes ana T 1 "LI ) in letters, l oave lnvanaoiv ucciarcu myself in favor of President Grant s re nomination, as well to those not friendly to it as to those who wero; and have so written to every friend iu Indiada who asked my opinion. When tho tickefof ' Grant and Uoltax was elected in 1MS, I determined thero should be no aliena tion between them, growing out cf the distribution of Presidential patronage in regard to which I resolved not to ob trube or from any lac.k of friendship or good will on iny part. And I am glad to state that this was most cordially re ciprocated by the President, so that there has never been the engneai amtur bnr.ee of our most desirable personal and Dolitioal relations. Nor can any discord in the party bo traced to any real or oven retended antagonism between us. 1 el deenlv the obligations I am under to the Republicans of Indiana and the na tion for their long continued confidence, and political duty to a party, whose re cord for the last ten years is the nobltat ever made bv any iartv in any country or anv asc. induced me to cay that if tho National Convention deemed it wisest to renominate me for the office I now hold I would accept. But my inter est in the continued ascendency of Re publicanism is far greater than any per sonal considerations, and if the conven tion prefers some one else for the Vice- Presideney (and there are many abler and worthier), bo man in the United States shall exceed me in the cordiality and earnestness with which I shall sup- fort him. 1 am not a candidate for the 'residential nomination, being jut as decidedly as ever in favor of Pres ident Grant s re norm nation, and hope our convention on the 22d will so declare unanimously. I beg for tho take of harmony politically, and o 6ave me personally from the suspicion ot bad faith toward one with whom my rela tions are and have always been so cordial, that my name may not bo men tioned by any one in our estate conven tion in opposition to ueneral urant, whom I believe to be the first choice of very large majority of the Republicans of the United States.

Supposing Citizen Hascall, as Presi dent of the State Senate, had been guilty of bribery and corruption and other practices which vould. in the opinion of Governor James require bis expulsion from the Senate. He issues a proclamation eu'iinx for an investigation into Ilascall's conduct, and dies by acci dent or otherwise, could Citizen Hascall, who would immediately succeed him as Governor, revoke thn proclamation to save himself? We should rather say not. Omaha, Bee. Certainly.

A young man in Columbiana county, O., courted a girl for a week. Knowing that procrastination was a thief ot time, he eot a can ot oysters ana a license, in vited the justice to his fair one's house at S o clock and then popped the question, was accepted, pulled out his document, and informed the maiden that the squire would be there at 8. oae pleaded delay; be couldn't see it. Her silk dress wasn't made; oalioo wouldn't do. The squire came, job was fixed, and the new-made wife cooked the oysters. The career of Mr. O. H. P. Arch er, the successor of Fisk in the vice presi dency of the Erie road, is another mam testation of the "peculiar civilization o; America" that might inspire a little pat ronzing pity from the English press. A few years ago, he was an express mes senger on tho Hudson River road, at a salary, it may be safely supposed, of about sixty dollars per month. By en errv and other such qualities or our American civilisation, bo is now worth a million of dollars, and second in rank in the administration of one of the largest corporations on the globe.

Of course he lost, and of course he was "churched. for gaming. "All we ask of you,-Mr. Brooke," said the minister during the tria "is to acknowledge that you are sorry, and promise to sin no more."
