"What did Editor Brooks, of the Rep
ublican find in his arms when h wak
ed up at Lincoln "Wednesday Morning?
Bull Doze Van.
Judffe Savage did not sustain the in
junction restraining the Nebraska
Electors from casting their vote for
Hayes & "Wheeler. Good for Savage.
The Presidsnt's Message has been de
livered to Congress and meets with al
most universal approval. It will ap
pear in the Herald in full next week.
Some Lincoln J genius is pickling
grasshoppers as specimens, and send
ing them East, "two for twenty-five
cents." The Journal thinks he is a
fraud. So do we.
They are trying the "Double Header"
business in South Carolina with their
Legislature. These chaps ought to
eome up to Nebraska and take lessons
in Double Headers.
But three Democrats appeared the
delegation from Otoe to answer to the
call of the Governor on last Tuesday.
This is the way to obey the laws and
obtain a fair count.
The second session of the 44th Con
gress opeaed Monday, the 4th, and a
lively time they had of it. The Demo
crats in the House objected to the ad
mission of the Colorado member. The
Senatois from that State were admit
ted. The reform economic Democrafs of
the Dr. Miller stripe in Nebraska, have
made the poor tax-payer sweat to the
tune of nearly $10,000 in the endeavor
to count Hayes out in this State, by
forcing the calling of the Legislature
to remedy a mere technicality.

To all worthy members, greeting :
You are hereby notified that the
State Grange will convene in annual
session in the Senate Chamber of the
State Capitol at Lincoln, Tuesday, Dec
19th. The number of delegates to the
State Grange is restricted by the con

tended to Patrons in good standing to
be present and assist by their advice

AT LAST!
The bright and beautiful days of
early Dtcernber brings to us, at last,
the news of our future President, and
we know the action of the returning
boards in the three Southern States
which have been so long in doubt.
In South Carolina the Republican
electors have received their certificates
and will undonbtedly cast the electoral
vote for Hayes and "Wheeler. Mean
while two Legislatures are running
and both hoping for Federal aid. Gen.
Grant will simply preserve the peace.
Chamberlain's friends say he will be
inaugurated, and Hampton says he
will yet be Governor. In Florida we
have a clean Republican majority of
nearly 2,000, and the Republican elect
ors will receive the certificates. In
Louisiana the returning board declare
the Hayes electors to have from 3,500
to 4,500 majority and the certificates
issued to correspond. In Oregon there
is no doubt but that the two electors
to whom the Governor must issue a
certificate can fill the vacancy, if one
exists; and in Nebraska, the latest
dodge of injunction and disobedience
to the request of the Governor has fail
ed. "We may therefore count Hayes d
"Wheeler elected as President and Vice
President of the U. S., as far us the
vote of the -Electoral College goes.
"What a Confederate House smarting
under defeat may do, time alone can
tell, but we hopefully look to see the
Republican candidates peacefully inau
gurated next March.
WEATHER BE PORT FOR 1876.
Friend Mac: Let us step outside
of the political cauldron for a moment,
and rest from "Fraudulent returns,"
"Bull-dozed elections," "You are a "
"You are another," "You did," and "We
did'nt," &c, fcc, and take up another
subject, old as time, yet ever new, and
on which man never tires, viz: the
weather.
I have just finished my Meteorolog
ical Record of the year 1870, beginning
with Dec 1st. 1875, and closing Nov.
80th. 1876, with the following results:
The mean temperature of the winter
months, Dec 75. Jan. and Feb. '76, was
29.17, of Spring, 47.77, of Summer,
72.89c, ef Fall, 46.73, and of the whole
year, 49.20, about 20 warmer than
the average of eleven years past.
"We have had 68 storms of rain, and
21 of snow; the total of rain and melt
ed snow was 42.3 inches, of snow 29.6
inches. The rainfall is a little in ex
cess of the average of many years.
The winds have been, from the north
5 per cent, N. E, 13, R, 10, S. E. 7, &
16, S. W. 15, W. 10, and N. W. 24. Al
together about 20 1 per cent less wind
than the average of many year. .
"We have had no extremes of cold or
heat; only six days on which the ther
mometer fell below zero, the lowest
Feb. 1st 12o. The warmest day was
July ICth 95, and on only six daj s
above 90. Altogether a favorable
and pleasant year. Truly yours.

SPECIALMEETING OF TnE NEBRAS
KA LEGISLATURE.
They Count the Electoral & State Tote.
Two Legislatures In One l)y-Basiness
In a Minute.
Lincoln, Tuesday, Nov. 5, 1876.
Generally, few people know or care
when the Electoral College meets.
The average voter after casting his
vote for the President who suited him,
through the regularly nominated elect
ors of his party, went home and never
both&red his head about how or when
said electors cast that vote. This'year
it has been very different. Owing to
Democratic necessities an attempt was
made to gobble the electoral vote of
Nebraska for Tildeu. The matter was
considered of enough" importance to
warrant the Governor in calling a spe-.
cial session of the legislature, which
was done.
Both houses being called to order
it was found there were 24 members
of the House present and 7 of the
Seaate, which being a quorom of
both houses, they met in joint session
to count the vote.
Hon. Church Howe, of Nemaha, en
tered a protest denying the right of the
Governor to call the Legislature That
this was not the legislature contem
plated by law to count this vote, and
that if so they must also count the
vote for Congress and State officers.
The protest was entered on the jour
nals and the convention proceeded
with their business. The Governor
being informed that they were ready
for business his private Secretary, Mr.
Cropsey, read the following message:
Executive Office, Dec 5. 1876.
Gentleroem of the Senate and House of Repre
sentatives :
The constitution of the State of Nebraska, au
thorizes the Governor to convene the legisla
ture upon extraordinary occasion.
You are assembled, in compliance with a pro
clamation issued by me. convening the legisla
ture at the Capitol of the State, in special ses
sion, on this 6th day of December, A. I. 1876, for
the purpose of canvassing the votes feast for
electors of the President and Vice President of
the United States.
Section 57 of Chapter 20 of the Revised Stat
utes of this (State provides- that the votes for
PresidentiiU Electors shall be cast in the same
manner and by the same officers as required by
law in the case of electing a Representative in
Congress.
It further appears from Section 19 of Chapter
10 of the He vised Statutes, that the abstract of
votes cast at any election for Member of Con
gress shall be opened and published by the Pres
ident of the Senate in the presence of a majority
of the members of both houses of the legislature
who shall be for that purpose assembled.
By an act of Congress the electors of the Pres
ident and Vice President of the several States
are required to meet and give their votes on the
first Y ednesday in December in the year which
they are appointed at such place as provided by
law. Section ci of chapter 20 of the Revised
Statutes of this State provides that the said
electors shall meet at the seat of Government
for the purpose of giving their votes for Presi
dent and Vice President on the fame day as
that directed by Congress. The day fixed by
law is the 6th inst. The necessity of your im
mediately pro-eeding to canvass the vote is ap-
Farent. The President of the Senate will certi
y the result to me, that in obedience to the re
quirements of Section 60of-chapter 20 of the Re
vised Statutes and the laws of Congress on that
object of made and provides, I shall be ena
bled to issue certificates to the persons entitled
to receive them. Silas Gabbjib,
Governor.
The returns were brought in by Sec
retary Tzschuck. The clerks prepare
the desks and large ruled papers for
the canvass. President Barton han
dles the packages tenderly, slowly and
thoughtfully he takes out his knife to
cut the magic envelopes, then reads
the law under which this body are
supposed to act and the canvass com
mences. TnE VOTE.
Strickland 31,883, Cobb 31.916, Con
nor 31,909, Calhoun 16,934, Goodrich
17,554, Keith 17,474, Roberts 813, John
son, 721, Latey 2,230, Fairbank 1,599,
and 24 other names receiving from two
to 496 votes each.
The President then declared that Si
las A. Strickland, Amasa Cobb, and Al
exander II. Connor, having received a
majority of the votes cast, were duly
elected Presidential Electors for the
State of Nebraska.
Mr. Cropsey, private secretary of the
Governor, appeared and read the fol
lowing message from the Governor:
PROCLAMATION'. r
By the Governor, convening the State Legisla
ture in special session.
Whekkas, the Constitution of the State of
Nebraska provides that "the Governor may on
extraordinary occasions convene the Legisla
ture by proclamation, stating therein the pur
pose for which they are convened, and the Legislature-
shall enter upon no business except
that for which they were called together, and
Whereas, the question of the eligibility of
Amasa Cobb who received a majority of the
votes cast for the office of elector at the late
election for Presidential electoi-s has been rais
ed, and.
Whereas, The constitution and laws of the
United States provide that each State shall ap-
Soint in such a manner as the Legislature may
irect. a number of electors equal to the whole
number ef Senators and Representatives to
which the State may be entitled in Congress.
Therefore. In accordance with the provisions
of the Constitution and the laws of the United
States, and by virtue of the authority vested in
me and in order to save all question of the elig
ibility of such officer, I, Silas Garber, Governor
of the State of Nebraska, do issue this, tny pro
clamation convening the legislature in special
session at Lincoln, the Capitol of this State, at
the hour of three o'clock p. iu., the 5 th day of
Dec. A. D. 1876, for the purpose of appointing in
such manner as the Legislature may direct, an
elector of President and Vice President of the
United States of America to fill said alleged va
cancy. And also for the purpose of canvassing
the vote of representative in Congress and the
State officers. You will take such action in the
premises as your honorable body may deem ad
visable. In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my
hand and caused to be affixed the great seal of
the State of Nebraska, this the 5th day of De
cember, in the year of our Lrd one thousand
eight hundred and seventy six.
Silas Garber,
Governor,
The Legislature, under the first call,
then adjourned and

braska Legislature met about 4 p. m.,
with 32 members and 7 Senators pres

It was nearly one o'clock "Wednesday
morning before this was accomplished,

Legislatures until January 1877.
