The next annual meeting of the Nebraska State Sportsmen's Associa tioo will be held at Fremont the 21st of May. Extensive arrangements are being made. Among other things there will be a dog show. For the benefit of our subscribers throughout the county we state that the announcement of the Chronicle that the editor of the Herald "I the leader of the delegation in the first ward which represents low license or free whisky" is false ; he neither headed nor belonged to a delegation of any kind. It hardly seems necessary, after the frequent avowal of our sentiments and the free publication of all articles favorable to the temperance cause, to state again that we are not and never shall be an anti-temperance organ, but as we learn that such a report as the Chronicle makes is being Industriously circulated throughout the county, we say once more to our readers, don't be lieve any such false statements about the Herald nor its editor. expose above refered to is abi The Senate began the day by talking about tree culture and closed it by dis- as i cussing timner in uie iHimuura. a. :id ' bill to award deserving Western tree quar- guve writers upon the reportorial staff of a Western newspaper.

The prospects look cheering for a road in the Republican this summer. If so, improvements will be made here and' elsewhere along the line, and the whole South PhUte will feel the influence of the progressive spirit of Mr. Perkins and his confreres. The telegraphic reports on the East ern question are headed somewhat like this : "Conviction that the Anglo-Russian War is Inevitable," or, "A Gener al Impression that there is no way of Averting War," and each days reports grow a little more warlike.

Lord Derby, Secretary of Foreign Affairs, has resigned on account of rad ical differences with the cabinet and Lord Beaconsfieid, and is succeeded by Marquis of Saulsbury; the Queen in a message to the Parliament has called out t ho reserve forces on or before April 19th ; latest reports seem to point to an alliance between Austria and England as more probable than hereto fore, and to a like result between Rus sia and Turkey. An order from Rus sia to England to withdraw her fleet from" the Sea of Marmora will probably sound the tocsin oi war, ana that per haps before many days. THE NEW COAL JUNE.

He came to the then Territory in 1856, settling at Believue. During the war he joined the Nebraska First, af terwards helping to organize the Fifti eth Ohio Regimtnt, in which he rose for distinguished services to the rank of brigadier-general. At the conclu sion of the war he returned to Nebras ka, and in his profession, the law, rose to the front rank. His disease was ty phoid fever. We have received from D. II. Wheel er, Secretary of State Board of Agri culture, the Premium List for the State Fair, which is to be held at Lincoln the 23d, 24th, 23th, 2Gth, and 27th of September. One special set of premi ums may be of interest to our readers just now. We allude to those given for planting of trees on 'Arbor Day" or the third Wednesday of April, which is quite near at hand. Three premi ums are offered, of $30, 825 and 10. anu aiso ior the greatest number of trees planted during the month April. S30. Remember, the 17Lh ApriL of of Lincoln, Neb, March 29 Gen. W.

Tho coal is of a good quality, being compact and with bright fracture. Though of less specific gravity than many of the Iowa coals, it is remarkably clean and free from sulphur and when burned leaves a small amount of ashes, free from clinkers. The following is a section at point. 1st. Loess and drift, 25 feet. 2d. Soap stone, 4 feet. 3d. Hard silvious limestone, 1 8 inches. 4th. Brown shale, 3 feet. 5th. Black shale, 1 foot. 6th Compact, slightly lamivated fire clay, 4 feet, 8 inches. T h. Coal, 1 foot, 1 inch, changing further in to coal, 1 foot, G inches. 8th. Fire clay, 1 foot, -t inches. Though this bed of coal is compar atively thin, it can be readily worked, owing to the character of the roof and floor. Good miners ought to be able to act out on an average from two to two and a half tons of coal per day to each man. This has frequently been done elsewhere, in similar beds, where such a roof and floor existed. This same coal vein is exposed at many places over a considerable, area in southeastern Nebraska. Nowhere else, however, that I have examined it. is it so free from impurities and of so fine a qulity. Only live miles west ef Jones' Landing we examined an ex posure early in tho morning: but the coal at this latter )oint will disolve in a few weeks under the action of the atmosphere, and contains far more im purities. In addition to the tire clay and coal, valuable beds of various shades of ochre are found at Jones' Point, on the lands of the Great Western Mining Company. I have rarely seen as fine grades of mineral paint as these ochre beds would supply. If they were utilized by the manufacture of miner al paint an Important industry would be eiected for Nebraska. Handsomely and Correctly Said. The management of the Ohio Pen itentiary has recently teen changed, we trust for the better. It can not, be worse than under the previous admin istration, which was so fully exposed by the "Xewsance" correspondent of the Enquirer, to whose investigating mind and ready pen the public are in no small niensure indebted for meas ures of reform, lie did a bold thiiig, but necessary in view of the fact ob tained ; and the people of the State are under obligations to him and the jour nal he represents for service which few correspondents and journals can be induced to perform. It is what journalists from a strictly professional standpoint c ill "good work." Every fair minded citizen will join in this commendation, from considerations of amoral and economical character, and repay in thanks what no ordinary mon ey return could compensate. "We trust it is no breach of confidence i to mention the fact that "Xewsance" I of tho Knauircr is O. P. Austin, one of the clearest thinkers and It was an interesting temperance meeting at Tammany Hall r cntly at which Judge Davis and Mr. William E.Dodge spoke together, because ic showed that in the question of regula ting dram-shops every kind and degree of temperance men are welcome. Un doubtedly the practical work of tem perance has been seriouslr embarrass ed by the tenacious assumption of many temperance men who are "teeto talers that temperance men who a e not teetotalers are not temperance men at all. And it was certainly a very sensible and manly position which was taken by Dr. Crosby that it would be a creat practical step toward the repression of drunkenness and the maintenance of public order to enforce a stricter system of regulation, and to invite all good citizens, whether they were teetotalers or not, to join in the work. Judge Davis, although strictly a temperance man, said that he never took part in a temperance meeting be fore; but few men, of course, have had. from his position on tht, bench, greater knowledge of the evils that spring from drunkenness. His word were very weigh y, and can not fail to have the best effect. The reason, undoubtedly, that the judge had not spoktn at a temperance meeting is that the main batteries of the distinctively temperance orators have been generally opened upon what they call moderate drinkers. These, indeed, fare rather worse in an ordi nary temperance meeting than the rumsellers themselves, and thus, while all honest protests and movements to suppress dram-selling have had the sympathy, they have not had the open and direct support, of that immen.se and powerful class in the community which, while temperate, is not totally abstinent. This class has been rallied by Dr. Crosby, as we said, simply tbpn mote public order and to enforce the existing license law. " It is not the best, perhaps," said Judge Davis, " but it is better than anv the liquor interest could devise." Mr. SV. E.Dodge thought that the law honestly enforced would close many, if not ail.of the grog-shops in the city the illicit grog-shops we presume him to mean. Dram-drinking will undoubtedly continue, but there is no reason for universal dram-seilii g that we bee. The specious plea that the nominal li cense furnishes a handsome lllild fur: charities is disposed of by the reply ! that for every thousand dollars raised in this way five thousand has toLe paid j in taxes. The loose lice use makes the: obiects of charity which the money is ! supposed to relieve. The regulation of the retail traffic, however, is the one subject of legislation i.i which ex cess undoubtedly defeats the purpose, and the good sense of this movement is that it seeks only to enforce such a law as the general sentiment of the community approves. Mr. As tor, who has been severely criticised for his spetch in the Assembly, undoubtedly staled the truth in saii:g, in effect, that the opinion of the city of New York demands regulation and not pro hibition. But there are two distinct interests in the matter the liquor in terest and public order. And it is tol erably evident that a law which teeto talers and other temperance men alike approve is more likely to secure the objects wh.ch such a law ought to te cure than one which has the hearty but necessarily suspicious support ot I readiest ! the liquor Interest.
