The first session of the Foitj-third 4'ongress adjourned on Tuesday (the 23 inst. evening at 6 o'clock: Its Last act was to relieve the political disabili ties of J. I. Vugh, of Alabama: If he communicatibh firoiii Louis ville last week, In regard to the 4th of July Olebration there, the place was located 4 miles south-east from 2nd St. Bridge, instead of of a mile as it should have read. llcmbember the correction.

"We do not publish anonymous tontributions. That Stnte Fair premium list is catch ing fits all 'round. Hear what anoth er state exchange says: Th vlxcv Erprexx truthfully says il the premium list for the State Fair, to be held in Omaha next September: "As a typographical piece of work, truth compels us to say that it is a wretched botch. It was printed at the Herald otlice, which ought to be asham ed of itself. The (ieofg'aiis have come? to Oma ha and been entertained by the Mer chants Club there. Judge "Wilbur made a w itty speech and lawyer I'ed dick a solemn speech, and Joel T. Clrif !m a Grange speech, and Dr. Miller a Miller speech, and then Mr. Echols thanked them all, anil all was lovely. A PRESS CONVENTION. Our exchanges are havingtheir usual talk over a Press Convention this year. If the real newspaper men of the Mate, the editors and proprietors, can fcet together and do something that will really aid to make our work more uniform, our rates more definite and Vtur papers more independent, we hope Mr. (Jere will call one, but if it is only for hangers on to spout and all hands to go off somewhere on a dead beat junketting outfit, we don't need anv Press Convention in Nebraska. COUNTY SEAT. There appears in the IIkkali this week, a communication on moving the County Seat. The IIeuald has published the article, as we do many others, because. we desire this paper to liecome the exponent of the true wish "es and desire3 of the people of this County. In order that it my become o, all sides must be heard. For the sincere good of all parties, we hope this County Seat matter will hot bp agitated this fall; there is no need of it, and its present agitation would only.be a detriment to the County, and defeat the real Interests uf the Western part of the County in the end. Moving a County Seat, looks easy on "papr rbut the editor of this paper hav ing had some experience in County Beats, knows by actual trial that it is not so easy in fact. Under the pres ent law it woftld be impossible to move this County Seat at this time, and as to buildiiig good County buildings, (as this young gentlemen talks of) now, vhen we are so cramped with taxation, nd business is flat on its back, would be pure madness. . Understand, the Herald, as a news paper, does not propose to take a hand for or against this ques tion when it conies up at the proper time; we think that it is a mat ter for the people to settle themselves, but we shall earnestly advise against any action this fall. The town .and County are at variance on many sub jects now, and there can no ultimate good come of throwing fuel on the lire, by a fierce County Seat fight. - The time has not come for the removal. As strong an opposition to Weeping Water would be organized to-morrow, if the question was before tho people, us there new srcin3 to be against Plattsruoutli. Let Weeping AVater go ahead and develop herself aa she has ilone, get Stores, and Hotels, and Fac tories, and the County Seat business will settle itself. A County Seat neither makes nor unmakes a town! will people never learn that? It is the energy, the grit, and the push of the leople that inhabit a town, that makes a city of it. And then railroads, County Swats and all other good things gravitate that way, and do not have to be purchased either. The above is good honest advice from our point of view, nevertheless, if the people of the west are bonnd to push this thing to a head this fall, we expect it will come, and tho weaker must go to the wall, no grumbling af terward mind A Western editor triumphantly ex claims: "man shall not live by bread iilone," and then acknowledges the receipt of a jug of " old Bourbon.

I suppose every man in these parts liked the Springfield Republican, but found one man who didn't. He got on at Thompsonvile, and I offered him a Republican I hud finished reading, but he handed it back when he read the name, saying: "I don't want any news from that paper." "I supposed that everybody read it In these parts," I answered", lias it been pitching into you?" "Pitching into me? Great Caesar! I should say it had. If it had only pitch ed into me, I wouldn't care. But just let me meet Bowles." You never make anything by strik ing an editor," I said; belter grin and bear it." "Yes, that's all right for you to say; but just let me meet Bowles! I'll show him how to run a paper." "What did he do?" "Do? He did a good deal. Here's how it is: I often went up to Spring field on the last train at night, did my business in the evening and came home on the first morning train. Well, one night I met an old crony and we went to Music Hall to the theatre. When we came out we met two girls that Jim said were his cousins, but they wern't; it was all a fraud, I didn't know it, and when Jim offered his arm to one girl, I "did the same to the other. They took us to their rooms, and I saw how it was. Of course I couldn't get right out, so I treated; then Jim treat ed; then the girls treated ; in fact we were having a pretty good time, when some fellows came in and begau to raise a a row. In less than no time the police were in and had us. The next morning I was hauled before the court and fined 7,40. I didn't care much, because I gave a false name and knew my wife couldn't find it out, but the next morning, I'll be eternally flunked if the Republican didn't have it all in, and my own name too." "Did your wife see it?" "I should sav she did." "Did she made a fuss ?" "Fuss, Godfrey, Elisha! Are you married ?" "Yes." "Then you know how it is. I have to go to Springfield in the day time noffi Just let me see Bowles!" "But," said I, feeling I ought to take a newspaper's part, "you can hardly blanld him, you know. It was only the proper enterprise." "Enterprise! enterprise be d d! There's such a thing as having too much enterprise." A' young Boston mechanic saw an over-coat in a second-hand clothing store, which he thought he would be gfcul to pdssess at a reasonable price. "How much?" he asked. "Twenty-one dollars." The usual haggling took place, md the mechanic started to leave the store. "How much you gif?" asks the merchant. "Three dollars." "Take it. then. Ishall shust be, ruin of mvslf. I I only make two dollars on dat coat, j to help me gracious." I The Widow's Protest. BY MAKK TWAIX. One of the saddest things thaf eVer tame under my notice (said the Ban ker's clerk) was there in Corning dur ing the war. Dan Murphy enlisted as a private, andf ought very bravely. The hoys all liked him; and when a wound, by-and-by, weakened him down till car rying a musket was too heavy work for him, they clubbed together and fix ed him up as a sutler. He made money then, and sent it always to his wife to bank for him. She was a washer ahd ironer, and knew enough by hard ex Ierience to keep money when slm got it. She didn't waste a penny. On the contrary she began to get miserly as her bank account grew. Shs grieved to part with a cent, poor creature, for twice in Uor hard working life she had known what it was to be hungry, cold, friendless, sick, and with out a dollar in the world, and she had a haunt ing dread of suffering so again. Well, at last Dan died; and the boys, in testimony of their esteem and re spect for him.telegraphed to Mrs. Mur phy to know if she would like to have him embalmed and sent home; when yon know the usual custom was to dump a poordevil like -him into a shal low hole, and than inform his friends what had become of him; Mrs Murphy jumded to the couclusion that it would only cost two or three dollars to embalm her dead husband, and she telegraphed "Yes". It was at the "wake that the bill tor embalming arrived and was presented td the widoVv. She Uttered a wildsad wail that pierc ed every (heart, and said: "Sivinty foi Ve dollars for stooffin' Dan, blister their sowls! Did them divils suppose I was goin' to start a Museim, that I'd be dalin in such expinsive curias sities?" The banker's clerk said there was not a dry eye m the house. BUSINESS NOT AFFECTED. The recent depression in business has not affected the passenger tiaffic of the St. Louis, Kansas City & Northern Short Line, as they continue to run six fast express trains, two more than any other line between tho Missouri and Mississippi Rivers. This road enjoys great immunity from accidents, by reason of immense expenditures, in tho last two years, of over two million dol lars, besides earnings in wonderful im provements, in relaying their line with new steel and iron rails, on broad, new ties, in new rolling stock supplied with all modern appliances for comfort and safety, and as another safeguard, em ploy night and day watchmen to in spect the road belore and after the passage of each train, to see that every thing is in order. Conspicuous among new improvements is the substitution for ordinary cars, of new reclining chair coaches, elegantly carpeted and fitted with dressing-rooms for ladies, gentlemen and families, without any extra charge. The St. Louis, Kansas City & Northern and the Kansas City, St. Joseph & Council Bluffs Bailroad, form the only line running through Pullman Palace Sleepers between Omaha and St. Louis. The shortest line between the West and the East is over the St. Louis, Kansas City fc Northern Short Line, either through St. Louis, the great metropolis of over 450,000 inhabitants, or through Chica go, via the Chicago & Alton Short Line, over the Louisiana Bridge now open for passage of through trains. Ticket Agents of connecting roads sel ling, through tickets to the East, North or South, will furnish tickets by this excellent line.

A New Bedford firm advertises "rain umbrellas," which is pleasantly defi nite. There is a woman at Duluth who weighs SCO pounds. At a little dis tance it is difficult to tell which is the larger of the two, the town or the woman. The maddest man in Camden is Smith He wound up his clock regularly ev ery night for lift een years, and then discovered that it was an eight-day clock. An exchange having said: "The first room lias been seen ; but one robin don t make a Spring. The Auburn Bulletin retorts: "Try him with a bug and see if he don't spring." It is stated by a reporter that a goat in Gold Hill, Nevada, has been break fasting on the Virginia Chronicle Look out for an editorial on the in creased circulation of that paper. When they do manage to get the peo ple of Thorn psonville, Conn., into church the sexton is obliged to lock the door to keep them there until the service is over. So says the local paper. A guileless Danbury man saw a beautiful chromo advertised "for fifty cents," and sent on the money, and re ceived the jack of clubs. A Connecticut paper solemnly as serts that a man fractured the ceiling just above a chair in which there had been placed a hot poker. A Western editor says of a contem porary that "if he had written the in scription on the wall in Babylon, Bell shazzar would have been a good deal more scared than he was." Another wants to know . "what poor Daniel would have done." The Scarabceus, or that which we call the "tumble-bug," symbolized, in ancient days, the resur rection. The . explanation is made because western editors are using the compound term as one of reproach in their little name-calling tourna ments. The Chicago Post .thinks that a young lady in this state who is said to have injured her health by hard study mnst have been trying to -read one of the Courier-Journal's editorials. That she still lives is the lest " evi dence in the world that she wad not trying to read one of the Post'3 editori als. Courier-Journal. . There were in the libraries, public and private of the United States, four millions and a half of books in 1830, thirteen millions in 1SG0, and fortv-iive millions in 1870, a wonderfully rapid increase. There are eleven hundred free municipal libraries, and, significant fact, more than half of them are in New England, and more thaa a third in Massachusetts alone. Western editors are never better pleas ed than when they can say something startling about "New York's doings." Here is a fair sample from a western exchange; "An aristorcratic New York tailor is engaged itl evolving a suit of clothes to consist entirely of cravat that will wind up the body from neck to ankle, and be fastened with a di amond pin." j NATURES CATHARTIC. No medicine Is need to keep the bowels In order as Ions as nature's cathartic, the bile; flows freely and regularly from its source in the hSer; and is of the rlht strength and quality. But the great biliary gland is easily disordered, jind the ciisequetiees of its irregularilttes are Merious. To bring it back to its natural condi tion wherijthus affected. Ilostetter's Stomach Hitters, should be taken at least twice a day un til the desired object is attained. Constipation is due to a scMrjt,upply of bile, or to a lack of the stimulating eletnTt in that fluid . In either case mere purgation m useies. 'ihe . liver must be compelled to vi-ld the supple of bile neces sary to remove the waste matter from the sys tem ut least once in twenty-four hours before a radical cure of eostiveness can be'aceomplished.
