THE HERALD. X A. MAC1IURFIIY,. .Editor. 3?LATTSAIOUTII, AUGUST 10,1877, Latest telegraphic news indicate that the soldiers, notwithstanding the late disaster, are crettincr the better of the Indians- We setf TJ the report of Win. Van "71eck of the P. O. Department that "Win. Brown of the Neb. City Press has leen succeeded in the P. O. of that city hy Paul Schminke. Fou the past month, nearly, the Uni versity question has been- a principal topic with rr.tMiy ofi our btate papers, and many strong assertions made as to what could, should or would be done ia Ue premises, and as jet the ques tion is just where it was in the begin nine. The ltecents were to liave a meeting yesterday, and we have every eoufidence to believe they will do what is best under the circumstances, after a careful investigation of all the pros iid cons. The Omaiias have been having a ter rible contest with the old river, which has been cutting into their arrange ments at a fearful rate for the past wek or two, and compelled them to work like beavers night and day, and apeud thousands of dollars, endeavor ing to stop the fierce old current from washing away.their sand bank, there by destroying the smelting works and a large amount of other valuable pub He and private property. Better come to Plattsmouth and build upon a solid yiK-k foundatio which rains or Hoods will not disturb. Oh! Scissors! My kingdom for a new pair of scis sors! Editor away recreating and don't furnish us a line; thermometer gone up till it boils over the top; lots of job work and other business ; every body either dead or hid away and not :i noise even, upon which to base a lo e:iT; no time-to read or write; what's to be doa ? "We've scissored right and we've sc&sored left, until the old scis sors are worn out and if our readers ivnd the paper stale and uninteresting, just laj it fco the scissors; or if they see anything they don't like, lay it to the scissors; or if our exchanges see any of their articles used without due credit, they will know that we have no len til only a pair of scissors ; if anything tfoes-wrong around here, just lay it to the scissors. ."!:- The new edition of the School Law Las been printed, and enough copies to supply each School Board with one, Have been sent to the several County Superintendents. In this edition all the late amendments have been insert ed, except the "Act to declare the true intent and meaning of the term School District," which together with the Gen eral Land Law, though ordered insert ed, were omitted by mistake of the printer. The provisions of the Neb. Constitution in relation to education has been inserted ; and also to facilitate the transaction of school district busi ness, brief foot notes have beeH append ed to some sections of the law, and on page 4, will be found a convenient School District Business Calendar. Another dramatic scene, in which James G. Blaine figured as the central ligure, was enacted in the Maine lie publican Convention yesterday. The resolutions reported to the con vention contained an implied censure f the President's Southern policy, but were much more mild in their terms than might have been expected. The advocates of the policy, however, asked to have them amended, and ap pealed for a quasi indorsement of the President. As i n the Iowa convention this was the signal for an outburst, and a delegate immediately introduced a substitute reciting that Packard, Cham berlain, and Hayes held their titles to their respective offices by the same ten ure, and if one was bad all were bad, and no one should succeed at the ex pense of the others. This was warm ly supported by a vast majority of the convention, and it became evident that it would pass. At this juncture Bla'ne appeared upon the scene. He was re ceived, of course, with great cheering, and proceeded to make an appeal for harmony. He counseled peace with his usual tloquence, and finally ended suggesting that both the resolutions be tabled. This was dono amid much confusion, und the original resolutions were then adopted. The latter will be found in our telegraphic columns, and though strongly Itepublican, and con taining, as we said, an implied censure of the President's course, are far from being of that positive and denuncia tory nature which characterized the substitute. It is somewhat singular that the President should thus bo spar ed a resolution of censure through the interposition of the very man who was supiosed to be most anxious that tho rebuke should be administered. Inter Ocean. Wileer, Neb., Aug. 13th. Ed. Herald. "Wilber i3 on the pro gressive. Several new business hous es havo been built here this summer. Harvesting through the country is finished, and farmers are bringing in the productions of theirsummer's labor. The wheat and barley yield is large. Our grain merchants find it necessary to enlarge their warehouses, to make room for the bushels of grain. Farmers are in good spirits generally, all anticipate good times. We are needing raia badly to mature our corn crops. The Wilber Mills are doing a large business in the way of shipping flour. In conclusion we would say the Blue Valley is tha place for the rising gen eutisa. Geo. a. Foi.iex. From the Nebraska? City Pressv la not the-B.-VM. Kt R. discriminat ing against Nebraska City ?

B. & Q. does it not look like discrimina tion against Nebraska City ? Game of Freeze Oat. Is the B. & M. Railway Compaq playing a game of "Freeze-out" with our Transfer Company ?' Which City. It is a matter of vital importance to Nebraska City's citizens to know which city the B. & M. in Nebraska, intends to abandon Nebraska City or Platts mouth ? IV hy They gro to Plattsmouth. From a conversation with a gentle man who knows, we learn the reason why the R &M.haul freight via Platts mouth in preference to Nebraska City. The f?nuie is such that ono engine can haul fifty cars by that route when the same engine can only haul ten or fif teen cars via Nebraska City. Again, the B. & M. Company own the trans fer at Plattsmouth. With these ad vantages against us we must work to overcome them. The above clippings from the Neb. City Press, are right to the point. With the advantages above enumerated by our friend Brown, Nebraska City can not nope to rival Plattsmouth in im portance as a shipping point. With nothing but kindly feeling for our sis ter city, we can see no way out of the difficulty but for them to grade their road bed or move up to Plattsmouth. State Gleanings. Kearney is to have a Democratic pa per, with K. j. Lid wards, of Memphis, Tenn as editor. uaviu uity wants elevators to move the immense crop of wheat in that part of Butler county. David City expects the completion of the Itepublican Valley Itailroad to that place by Sept. 15th. jcaie ivauitor v estou, nas oeen im mortalized. A town on the Itepubli can alley Railroad has been named after him. Buffalo county can boast of some of the nicest looking corn fields of any county in the State. So says the Kear ney Times. Two hundred and sixty car loads of tea over 4,000,000 pounds passed through Sidney from San Francisco to New York. Plumb Creek is to be a feed station for stock shipped on the Union Pacific. This will help the hay market. Daw son County Pioneer. Moses Stocking shipped 9060 pounds of wool to Philadelphiaa few days since, for which he expects to realize thirty cents per pound. Wauhoo Indepen dent. A German from Toledo, Ohio, has been making a careful examination of lands in the lower Elkhorn Valley, with a view of locating a large colony of Ohioans. A violent wind prevailed at Cozad Sunday afternoon last, which unroof ed a largo brick building belonging to John J. Cozal. The roof was carried away two hundred yards. Dawson County Pioneer. Texan Herders had a shooting affray at Ogalalla in which a man named Campbell was killed, two others wound ed, and Postmaster Gasman dangerous ly hurt while looking on. The stag3 between Bloomington and Kearney was overturned one day Lut week, by the swollen condition of the Little Cottonwood, and a lady passen ger narrowly escaped drowning. A waterspout was the cause of the trouble. Maj. Boehmer is at Nebraska City, and has begun the work of changing the course of the Missouri River. His plan is to sink artificial weeds made or rope, to anchor these with rocks, and then the sand will Gil in around these weeds and make sand bars. He is confident of success if the 313,000 appropriation holds out. Oregon has the best liquor law hu man ingenuity lias yet devised. Every drinker must pay five dollars a year for license, and whoever sells to an unli censed person, is to be imprisoned. The names of those who procure license to drink are published every six months. A little of that kind of license law might be of benefit in this section. Lee Baker returned from Deadwood last Wednesday. He was in the vicin ity of Crook City, when the killing of the man and woman, by the Indians, occurred. He bade thara good morning, not ten minutes before they were kill ed, and remonstrated with them on taking such chances. They had scarce ly turned around behind a hill a few rods in advance, when s'.iots were heard. The party immediately started for the scene. There was not aa Indian in sight, while the poor mm and wife fay cold in death's embrace. The latter had been foully dealt with, an ox bow pierc ed her person, and pinned her to the ground. And yet tho army should be reduced. Sidney Telegraph. By Postal Card. Aftox, Neb., Aug. 11. No material change in affairs. The hoppers were flying over south on the 8th, north on the 9th. No great num bers and no damage. The chinch bug, and a blue louse are hurting the corn some. Late rains have helped all late crops however. Breadstuffs are much cheaper than they were. Flour S3, rye flour $2.50, meal the same, flour has been $5.50. We hear of quite an emi gration that is pointing this way. So mote it be. Never was there a better chance for good claims. E. . Cllilv. TELEGRAPHIC CLIPPINGS. HAPPY KIMBAI Washington, Aug. 9. Surveyor General Kimball- relieved of his sus- pention leaves to-night for Utah' THE SI6XAL SERVICE. 'The President and Secretary of War to-night witnessed and expressed tiem- selves highly pleased with the night practice of the Signal Service. COMPLEMENT TO THE NAVY. Secretary Thompson has sent to the commandant of of the naval brigade here, his own thanks with those of the President, and says the Naval brigade by its promot and efficient organization its evident enthusiasm, it3 soldier like appearance, and precision of movement and drill generally proves eortcJasiveiy that our naval force under its able and well trained officers, can at any time and anywhere be immediately landed and transformed into a most power ful and efficient body of regular sol diers. SENATOR BLAINE, IN HIS SPEECH advocating the adoption of his motion to lay the preliminary and antagonis tic resolutions on the table, said: "I do not rise to speak for an indorsement of the administration or against it, for the southern policy or in opposition to it. A difference existing in the Re publican party whit shall be done about it? Shall one man be compell- to swallow the opinions of another, or shall not each have the liberty to cher ish his own ? I am opposed to both these resolutions. I am known by per haps every member of this convention to entertain very decided views on the southern question, but I am just as ready to vote against the resolution condeming the President's policy as I am to vote against one approving it. We can all take action either way with out offending good men and creating needless heartburnings and dissentions. We can all unite on a strong platform, embracing issues that we hold in com mon. We can all rally as one man to the support of Governor Connor. We can be tolerant or each other s opin ions. We can all remember and adopt the old theological maxim which teach es, "In essentials there should be unity ; in non-essensials liberty; in all things charity." Federal Office-holders and Employees in Politics. TIIE PRESIDENTS ORDER AND BROOKLYN PETITION. the Washington, Aug. 9. An allusion was made in these dispatches some days ago to a letter received by Presi dent Hayes from a Republican ward as sociation of Brooklyn, asking that gov ernment employees living in that ward might be excepted from his recent or der, and retain their connection with the association, because every republi can in the ward was a member, and it was a time honored rule at primary meetings for them to allow none but those persons who held membership to vote. It was susgested by a member of tho Cabinet, that this letter might be answered by a reminder, that the rules of the primaries might be modi fied so as to let office-holders come in to vote on the ground that they were not members of the association from choice but from compulsion ; but Mr. Rogers the President's private Secre tary, has been able to answer an im portant letter in a style that would or nament 'The Polite Letter-writer.' Mr. Rogers writes. Dear Sir: I am directed by the President to acknowledge the receipt of j our communication of the 31st ult., requesting to be informed whether the late order of the President concerned membership in the Twentieth Ward Republican Association and like organ izations. I have to say in reply that such organizations are clearly within its scoje. Your comments have been carefully noted, and while it may be that the order referred to will in some cases work a temporary inconvenience. yet it is fully expected and believed that the benefits to accrue from its op eration will more than counterbalance them. Very truly yours, Wm. K. Rogers. Secretary. DOES THE ORDER COVER CABINET OF FICERS. Secretary Sherman left Washington for Ohio to-day. During hi3 stay in the btate named he will, as lar as possible, avoid taking an active part in the campaign. He intends to deliver only one or two speeches, and they will bo mainly devoted to tho discus sion of the financial subject. He ex pects to show, he says, that he has not contracted the currency, ana that a speedy return to specie payment will be of incalcuable benefit to the busi ness of the country. Sitting Bull. Washington, Aug. 9. Secretary Mills, of the Canadian In terior Department, has been in Wash ington for two days, having come here to consult Secretary Punket of the Brit ish Legation, who is acting as Charge d'Affaires during the absence of Sir Edward Thornton. Mr. Mills called on the Secretary of the Interior and Commissioner of Indian Affairs to day, and an important consultation was had in regard to Sitting Bull and his band of warriors, who are known to be somewhere in the British Possessions, having taken refuge over the border to avoid the pursuit of the United States military. Mr. Mills has recent infor mation from the outposts, on the f rent ier of the Dominion, from which it is learned that Sitting Bull has expressed his desire to surrender to the United States authorities and return to an agency, provided he can ao so on nis terms, which are that he be allowed to retain possession of his arms and pa- j nies, and that neither he nor his tribe shall be punished for past offenses. Mr. Mills Information is to the effect that Sitting Bull has not been prosperous this summer in his hunting campaign, and will be unable to sustain himself and his tribe during the coming win ter. He sees no alternative but to sub sist on the Canadian Government, (which Secretary Mills will not allow him to do or to surrender himself to the United States ami live on agency rations all winter. He can't support himself by raiding settlements, because the Northwestern frontier is now so well-guarded by the military that it wvuld be fatal for him to do so. The Canadian frontier is not so well guard ed as ours, and for this reason Secreta ry Mills is very anxious that something should be done to remove Sitting Bull out of the way of temptation. He is quite sanguine that if a courier was sent to Sitting Bull from the United States that he would consent to come to an agency. Secretary Schurz and Commissioner Smith are not so hope ful, and will not consent to treat with him. on-any terms whatever, except the absolute surrender of all his ponies and arms and ammunition. The other Sioux have accepted these terms, and Sitting Bull must be treated with no great er consideration. Secretary Schurz will bring the matter before the Cabinet to morrow, and if the President's assent can be obtained, a commissioner will be sent out at once. The council which the Canadian Government was to have held with the Blackfeet Indians this summer, will not come off, for some reason unexplained. TELEGRAPHI C! BUTCHERY IN BULGARIA. Horriable Atrocities by log armies. the Contend- Tillages Annihilated Hospitals burned Telegram to the Inter Ocean. London,. Aug. 14, 1877. A Bucharest correspondent telegraps: 'I have written the following as I re ceived it, and, from the terrible ac counts which fugatives continually bring over the Balkans, I fear it must be only too true: July 31, the day of the Russian evacuation of Eski Saghra, the Turks ordered that all Christians, men, women and children should be shot as they left their houses. Those who remained within were burn ed alive. The order was given to burn down and desiroy every article of Christian property. Many leading Turkish merchants took part in the affair. A large number of Bashi-ba-zourks were dispatched all over the Tschirpan district. This district is one of the richest in that part of Tur key. It contains a very large propor tion of Christians, over thirty, church es and 500 schools and colleges, all of which have been burned. The destruc tion extended to the villages of Bogh- dan, Mahalesi, Rani, Mahalesi, and many others, in all about sixty; con taining from 150 to 200 families each. Scarcely fifty persons escaped alive. Bulgarian fugatives at Gabrova and Sclvi estimate that from 12,000 to 15, 000 Christians have- been massacrecJin ki-Saghra and Tchirpan districts alone. Soldiers were posted along the road from Eski-Saghra to Kazan! ik with orders to sh-.xrt everybody pass- 1 TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY MEN AND FOUR HUNDRED WOMEN rEIUSIIED. Iliere were only three survivors. The villages abandoned upon the ap proach of the Russians were given to the flames, and nearly five thousand houses have been destroyed. The Le gation concludes from information re ceived, that the Russians have adopted a uniform system to try to seize de fenseless villages, and, AFTER DESTROYING THEM WITH CAN NON SHOT TO MASSACRE THE UNARM ED INHABITANTS, and carry off the women for the pur pose of outraging their persons, when they are not killed at first. The Rus sians threaten Christian villages with the same fate if they do not surrender, or if their inhabitants refuse to be en rolled. HOSPITAL BURNED WITH EIGHT HUN DRED sick. Paris, Aug 13, 1877. A dispatch from Gabrova says : "Ac cording to reports received here, the Turks have burned the hospital at Es- ki-3aghra, which contained 800 sick." WHAT THE TURKISH LEGATION - AT NEW YORK SAY. ;ew York, Aug. 13, 1877. The Turkish Legation complains of the Russians near Kars firing upon a flag of truce, and wounding Osman Effendi. Twelve unarmed Mussulmans of the village of Soukoulou, near Eski-Saghra surrendered to the Russians, and seven of them were massacred by Bulgarians and three bv Cossacks. At Batak, a village exclusively Mohammedan, in the district of Sistova, 100 houses were burned, AND 200 MEN AND oUO WOMEN PERISH ED. It is believed that but seven in habitants survived. At Balovan a Mussulman villiage in the district of Tirnova, 250 houses were burned, and seven hundred men, and twelve hund red women perished. THE MARKETS. HOME MARKETS. BF.rOIiTED 15V F. F..
