It has always been the custom to
speak of the Marriage bells, an alone mer-
ry. is a marriage always a merry occa
sion ? Has the token which knells the
parting of Mother and Daughter,
breaks up years of sweet family inter
course, and causes the severance of many
dear bonds of union on both .sides, any
more right to be called merry than when
it tolls forth the tidings of men saved of
a world to come full of joy and light, of
a haven of rest where there are no more
partiDgs ? We trow not.
A few years back, and Nebraska heard
never a church bell, and so strongly did
we feel this, that the first bells seemed
to ring forth the words, "Come home,
Come home," not to our heavenly abode.

Doctor Black called the meeting to or

GEN. SILAS A. STRICKLAND.
Loud cheering followed. The General
squared himself, and then and there
with a masterly flow of wit, humor and

friends came to visit us. We had busi
ness up country, and taking a carriage
at Omaha, we passed nonh through
Washington and Burt counties, to the
Omaha Agency. On returning, we
came by Arizona bottoms. On our re
turn to Omaha, they were profuse in
description of their pleasure at the bcau-
Party. Launching lrom this into the
personal history and characteristics of
Gen. Grant, he showed that this "quiet,
persistent, reticent, little man had been
successful in every effort or move he has
made, so far in life ; " and that we had
to thank his wisdom, prudence and cour
age, for the fact that we have to-day a

The speaker then overhauled the hon
esty and record of Mr. Greeley ; showed
how he had been cn all sides of the
fence one moment urging us "on to
Richmond," and the next J-aying "Let
her slide, we don't want the South, and
can do without her." He had ued up I

The Honorable gentleman also de
scribed Grant's character and deeds, de
nounced Sumner for his folly, and in re
ply to the oft repeated charge against
Grant that he desired a re-election,
pointed to Sumner, himself, who has
been re-elected for 25 years, and now
should stand back and let 60tne other
man in Massachusetts have a chance.
He went through Senator Tipton's
speech, and charges; said the Hon.
Senator went down to Lincoln and tried
to get re-elected as hard as anybody,
and would probably be a candidate
again. He explained the Georgia bill,
that Tipton dwelt so much on, and stated
that Mr. Dawes, leader of the House, a
good Republican, prevented the Chor-
penning claim from being allowed, and
not this wonderful reform crew, Tiptou,
Trumbull & Co.
He did not choose to go backward for re
form to a dead party ; tut rather forward
with the party already in the van, once
more he declared allegiance to the bona
