If we could just have that team and exhibit one seas'.n, we could retire a millionaire. -Jo-j" won't probably see the point in this but wc flatter oursclf that a few read ers of this paper will appreciate where the "sarcasm" comes iu. Sherman, why did you skip the Sun editorials, the Finch matter, the email pox, and all ctlier points made in last week paper, and take up the little un important one about Geo. Smith? The meaning of our article was plain, and you know it well enongh. You wrote a silly thing about supporting home men for otlice. The same week, by inference, you called Dr. Livingston a liar, the Mayor a fool, and, by implica tion, the Surveyor General a scamp, and then preach to us about support ing home citizens. Too thin, old man ! "Josey" Connor, you are the only man who insulted Thatcher's memory. Why did you not notice the good words we had to say for Thatcher in last week's Herald, from his late home paper? That would be honest, that would be-neighborly. Your first reticle was a coarse vulgar allusion to matters that Mr. Thatcher told us himself he would be glad to forget and you are the man who renewed them in the minds of this public, not "little Johnny MacMurphy." It is always the perquisite of a cow ard to allude to the size of an opponent physic-idly. Why did. you wait two weeks to retort? Was it until your wife would be away, in fear we might answer in kind, and you could keep the paper here? Or do you mean to thi eaten tolill the editor of this paper again? Go slow. Josev, go slow ; y:i live in a glass house! 1 The New York Times, which can not certainly "be said to be either a Grant or Conkling paper recently, lias this to say about the Peruvian-Chilian policy, as laid down by Mi. lilainef The country wdl read Mr. PUine's instructions to SpecialJ.'.uvoy Trescut with amazement, not aHinixett .with- dep sense of lelief and gratification Uiat hy tin foituuale ciicumstunce of hia resignation and leplacement by a Secretary of State of less un American aims and methods, the unaccountable policy by-which he was seemingly de liberately seeking to embroil this Gov ernment with that of Chili was arrett ed at a critical moment, baielv in time to avert its inevitable and lamentable consiqper.Ccs. ;The' VWume 'of diplo matic communications sent to Congress yesterday, and of which the only im portant previously unpublished por tion appears in our columns this morn ing, tells a strange story of fully and rashness in which Mr. Plaine appears ae the actor of a most discreditable, and, for the nation, of a dangerons part. The first gleam of reason, of good judgment, and of due comprehension of the proper limits of cur influence with our sister republics of SouMi America appears when, on Jan. i, the good sense and the firm hand of Secre tary Frelinghuysen are interposed to stay the reckless work begun by Mr. Blaine and then hastening to its ac complishment. Before that we heard only of the extraordinary invention of the most undiplomatic, mind of Minister Stephen A. Ilurlbut, the un wise and impulsive behavior 'of the late Minister Kilpatrick, and the whol ly irrational. instructions of our super sensitive and "jingo" Secretary, Mr. Blaine, while over all, enveloped in an obscuring cloud of mystery, hung "the Peruvian Company." It's ic-al laughable how those fel lows down east think we're oil a set of hoodlums out west, forgetting that the most of us came direct from the east, oi are of eastern parentage; and if we have bad manners they must have been learned back there originally j As a specimen we copy from the N. Y. San: Syracuse, Jan. 31, -During the re cent gathering of the Grand Army here I was introduced to the father of a middle-aged delegate, a hale old man of some 70 or 77 years, who had come down from the north to see what his son was up to, as be said. I learned that the old man had been a clerk of some sort at Washington, in the Sen ate, I think, while Silas Wright was Senator away back in the days of Van Buren's adninistration. The subject was introduced by some stray com ment on the current fashion of com paring Arthur with Van Buifn. The old man laughed at this. "I can't see any points of re&emblance at all," he said, "unless it be thaf. both have good manners. There has been fctich a succession of rough Westerners in the White House that the moment they get a man them who knows bow to wear kid gloves and can enter a room politely, they f;dl to searching history for a parallel for him. But Van Buren was a man of altogether differ ent mould from Arthur. In their rela tions to politics they are not alike. Mr. Van Buren was something more than a politician, something larger than a mere heir of Jackson's pobcy and man tle. He had made a big reputation as Governor of. New York, as Senator, and as Vice-President befoiehe went to the White House. He sto-vl on a foundation of his own making. He was a reserved and cautious man; his enemies used to call him Old Non committal, as we call a man a strad dler nowadays. But be knew bow to I andle men well, and kept faction out of the party. Wlieu his term expired he got the unanimous renominalion of his party, and would have been elected but for the bank troubles and the bu siness panic. Do you think Arthur will get the unanimous renomination of his party iu 18S4? I guess not." By the way, a strong 'non-committal" man who knew his own business, and who learned to treat people with courtesy, even when he did not agree with them, would be called "on the fence" here, we suppose, eh, Mr. Journal? Ilriii: are the steps taken by the Lincoln Board of health in regard t small-pox. The Board besides providing lor a general vaecinatior. of the school chil dren and adults of the city, took such measures upon the IJozier case being reported, as to completely quarantine that faini'- from contact with anyone elsf ex"ei t the physician in charge. It having been reported that a consid erable l. umber of oolored peop'fc hud visited the Ilozier h;uso duunp the develypiin nt of Joe lb-zier's ii'ness. lhe names of all such were ascertained by the police, and thev were compelled to get vaccinated ot ence, and on ac count of that exposure the colored churches and the North Lincoln mis sion school were ordered to remain closed until further orders ; to the end that if any exposed peisons took the disease they would not convey it to others by visiting public meetings just at the culmination of the incubation period. Dr. Shaw, an experienced physician, who had himself had the, disease, was employed to take charge of all small-pox cases that migth arise, and the board, in employing him, ex pressly stipulated that h5 should have the immediate superintendence of the details of care and isolation and that he should be held responsible for , the success of all - quarantine measures adopted where disease was known to exist. Besides fencing up the street at each end of the block on which the Rozier house is located, a patrol stalion was built in froit of the house and an in telligent and reliable man who baa once had the disease was placed on special police duty undr strictest order not to allow anyone whatever to enter or leave the house except the physician in charge, and of course to admit such nurses as the board sent to the relief of the sufferers. ' The M. F. Colored church was also closed for a time. There are several cases among German families in"Salt" precinct near Lincoln. The M. P. B. It. This new l'ne reached Sheridan Nemaha Co., from the' South on Fri day last and Saturday telegraph and B. R. communication was opened south from that point. A local train from Louisville to "Weeping Water is hoped for soon. The grades and most of the track is laid north from Louis ville to "Springfield," the future great of Sarpy Co." Just how many mides are graded in this county we have been unable to learn but the whole line, Mr. House says, will be pen in-April. The article by "Washington Gladden on "The Increase of Divcrce," in the January Century, has attraeteJ wide interest .and discussion " in England, The London Daily News, of Jauuny Cth, devotes a column to it.

Guiteau in the dock where he belonged. Sco vi'le given ali chance to argue his theory of insanity, but out to bulldose the court. Coikhill calls for the sen tence. Judge Cox announces his idea of justice. ' ' THE SENTENCE. You have been convicted of a'ciiiiie so. terrible iu its circumstances and so far-reaching in its results, that, it has drawn upon you the horror of . the whole world and the execration of your countrymen.- The excitement produced by such an offence made it no easy task to secure you a fair and inpartial trial, but you have had the power of the United States treasury and of the government in your service to protect your person from violence and to procure evidence from all parts of the country." Yon have had as fair and impartial a jury as ever assembled ih a court of justice. 'You have been defended by counsel with a zeal vnd devotion that merits the highest ecora ium, and I certainly have done my best to a fair presentation of your de fense. Notwithstanding all this, you have been found guilty. It would be a comfort to many people if the ver dict of the jury had established the fact that your act was that of an irres ponsible man. It would have left the people under belief thnt the crime ofpo litical assassination wasentirely foreign to the constitution and construction of our country. ' This result has de nied them that comfort. The country will accept it as a fact that crime can be commuted, and the court will have to deal with it with the highest pen alty known to the criminal code to serve as an example to others. Your caraer has been so extraordinary that the people might well at times have doubted your sanity, but we cannot but believe that when the crime was committed you thoroughly understood the nature of the crime and its con sequence Guiteau "I was acting as God's man." and that you had moral sense and conscience enough to recog nize the moral iniquity of such an act. Prisoner "That's a matter of ques tion." Your own testimony shows that you recoiled with horror from it. You say that you proved against it. You say that you thought it might be prevented. This shows that your con science warned you against it, but by the wretched sophistry of your own mind you worked yourself up against the protest of your own conscience. "What motive could have induced you to that act must be a matter of mere conjecture. .. Probably men will think that some fanaticism oi morbid desire for self exaltation was the real inspi ration for the act." Your own testi mony seems to controvert the theories of your counsel.. They have maintain ed and thought, I honestly , believe, that you weie driven against your will by an Insane impulse. The testimony showed that you deliberately resolved to do it and that the deliberate and disquised will was some impulse. This may seem insauity to some people, but the law leoks upon it U3 wilful crime. ; You will have an opportunity of having any errors I may have com mitted during the course of the trial passed upon by the court, but mean while it is necessary for me to pro nounce the sentence of the law, that you bo taken to the common jail in the distrio, from, whence you came, and there be kept iu confinement, and on Friday, the SOth day of June, 1SS2, you be taken to the place prepared for your execution, within the walls of the said jail, and there, between the hours of 12 and 2 p. ra., you be hanged by the neck until you are dead; and mav the Lord have mercy on your soul. Gciteau was vaccinated Sunday. He isn't going to school soon, what's the use of vaccinating him? A Seed Wheat Discussion. A number of the grain ' buyers of the state assembled in Omaha last Friday in response to an invitation from the Omaha Board of Trade to attend a banquet given by it celebrat ing the cpenincr of the new elevators just built there. The next day,'" the said grain buyers held a meeting tnd discussed" the seed wheat question; add decided that a desirability for a change of seed wheat exists; that a variety of seeds should be used, and that it was possible to comply with the requirements of all sections of the state. . A circular will shortly be sent out for the purpose of collecting informa tion as to the Reeds of every part of the state. . The following resolution was offer ed by Mr. Allen: , . Iieselced, That the grain shippers of Nebraska do urge upon the farmers of the state the importance of sowing better varieties of seed wheat, and recommend that more attention ,be given to raising the standard of Nebraska milling grades by careful selection of seed wheat of the varieties adapted to this purpose. The hard wheat being better for milling, and bringing a higher price in the market, we do recommend the following vari eties, as iu our judgment and experi ence they are among the best and most valuable for our soil, and adapted to the diversity of soil found in Nebras ka: To be decided hereafter. "The motion was seconded by Mr. McLennan, of "Wahoo, and was the subject of ' an animated discussion, was put to a vote and adopted. . Resolutions of Respect. At the last regular meeting of the Plattsiuouth Liederkranz, the follow ing preamble and resolutions were unanimously adopted: Whekeas, It ha3 pleased the Giver of life and death to take unto Himself our Worthy friend and brother, Chas Guthmann, therefore be it Reshlced: That the Plattsmouth Liederkranz unites with his home so ciety in constant commemoration of the deceased, and in sorrow over his early departure, bowing to the will of Dim who doeth all things well. Reoloed: That our heartfelt sym pathy is hereby extended to the widow and family of the deceased, trusting that the healer of all sorrows will keep them in His protection,and grant them needful consolation in their loss. liesoloed: That the city pajiers be re quested to publish tse resolutions, and a copy thereof be furnished the family of the deceased. II. SciiULHOF, A. Furlich and W. Weber, Committe- University Matters. Lincoln. Neb., Feb. Cth. 1832. Edito -Herald: The action of the. regents in dispensing with the services of ; Professors Woodbury, Church and Emerson, ha3 been con demned and approved, but perhaps "without due 'judgment. Thinking, therefore, that a letter frou. a quasi spectator would not be uu-iuterest-iugto your readers,, in showing theui the tacts f the case as near as they can be ascertained i'jourTxtorrespon? dent submits "this letter' 'to 'the ap proval of yourself and readers. For sometime past, the Faculty 4f the University Iiave, ia Lheirr various meetings been 4uh'armoniou3,"for the reason that the educational views oi the so calledBroadGuagers.or inother words, broad minded-Professors, are net readily assimilated to the ideas f the Narrow .Gruage, or as the dis Unction b as been made also, the Nar row minded Professors. The out come of this lack of harmony, 13 the dismissal of the Broad Guage Pro lessors. " ' . . The Honorable "Regents, with the exception of Regent Gannett, who was sick and Regent Powers, who was abs'ent" from" that meeting, after an investigation, that seem to some perople, a partial one, notified the Professors, whose names have been mentioned above,that their servi oes in the. University could.be dis pensed with, at the close of the year; all this, without allowing the Pro fessors a hearing, iu which to defend themselves. Be it said to his honor, that Regent Holmes voted nay. , We understand that charges, con sisting of " immorality, inecfJUencyV and irreligiou were proposed against them, cither specifically or gencially. Wo will lak, up the charges systematically: 1 1st, As regards immorality. It is alleged that the iutlueucu ! one of the disuiis-scd Piotcbiori, over the students has not bete 11 conducive to good mot ais. Let us say that any person who does what auyoue wants him lo dr., when he, himself, know that it is wioug, is iu a fair "way to become ;ie of thoe plastic individ uals, who can be moulded iu anyway to suit the fashion. Indeed, the influence . of the Professor is a very desirable oae, and it would be well, were all the Profes sors simifar to him. But piogressive ideas do not find fertile soic, general ly, among the Chancellor' b. leaue ' 2d, in relation to inefficiency. t In efficiency ? you say. That is the charge, but it is an absurd one. and was very probably used as -a subter fuge, as you will perhaps thmk wlieu you read the facts. i'lie professor against whom thii chai-ge is orougbt, has in his elemenWrv Wass of'trer man, between sixty au. seventy stu dents. . , 1 "lie is asked to bear;ery hiuJentin an hour, ami oecnuse every studeub does uot pass in bis efamitiatiwu, the Professor is charged with inefficiency. In every class," as th school teachers who read this article may know, there are some pupils who are lazy, will not study, aud spend their timo generally in having fun. So it is with this class. Would It not be doing an injuslice.'notr only to the student himself, but to the class, to allow him, if he were incapa ble, to pursue his study? Would it not be to his detriment? This is probably the view the Professor takes o.f the case. Ail efore, tiie charge was prefer red against only one Professor, while there still remains in the Facmty the' Professor of Chemistry, who is. known to be very incompetent. ; He also is of the same stripe as the Ch.mctJlor. 3d. As ivgards Religion. It is alleg ed that these Professors force their views Upon the students. It is false. Are we retu in ng to the old age of per secution, when a person in the minori ty was beheaded for expressing a re ligious opinion different from the ideas held by the majority ? We hope not; but it iliust be said that tfds acc;on of the Regents looks bko it. The uay is fast approaching when. man. tan be free to announce his opinion, whether it be for or against religion.. Professor Chuich delivered a lecture one even ing last eat iu Lincoln, which was said to have been an excellent dis course. The idea was expressed, as we understand it, that a man may make what use of the Sabbath he please?, in so far as that use does not interfere with his neighbors. Is this right or wioug. or can we truly distinguish be tween right and wrong?' Au expound er ofK'hir h;i ;s ; "We should nor to ie virtues or vices wb it 1 U. Bi ble sas re virtues or vices, but what the experience of mankind has piove.i to le virtues or vices." Having thiib determined what is right aud what i rong, we should endeavor to conform asneailyas possible to that distinc tion. The Professors, who have been dis missed, inaugurated this year what is Known as the elective system, which is the one now iu use in Harvard and the leading colleges of this country and Germany. The system consists in hav ing bat two terms, or semesters, to the year, and in allowing a student to choose whatever he desires in addition to the studies which come regularly in his course. The Regents, while they have dis pensed with the services of the Pro fessors, showed some consideration for the welfare of the University, and pre served the system which they intro duced. Does it not seem strange that the Professors should be discharged, and their system continued? The life having been taken from the Universi ty, does It not seem best to you to get rid of the fossils? Spectator. At the request of a friend we pub lish the above. It is oerhaps unneces sary to say it does not agree altogether with our view of the subject, except the latter recommendation that an en tire change in the faculty be made, at the earliest moment, as the only salva tion to the University. This the State Press pretty nearly agree about. Ed. Not to be Sneezed at.

A wealthy man in St. Louis was as Red to aid in a series of Temperance meetings, but he scornfully refused. After being further pressed, he said: . '.'Gentlemen, it is not my business." A few days after, his wife and two daughters were coming home in the lightning express. In his grand car riage,, with liveried attendants, he rode to the depot, thinking of his' splendid business, and planning for the mor row. Hark! did some one say- "acci dent?" There are twenty-flve rail roads centering :h St. Louis, if there has been an accident it is not likely it has happened on the aud Mis sissippi Railroad. Yet it troubles him. 'It is his business" now. The horses are stopped on the instant, and upon inquiring he finds that it has occurred twenty-live. miles distant, on the and Mississippi. He telegraphs to the superintendent: - "I will give you five hundred dollars for an extra engine." The answer flashes back, "No." "I will give you one thousand dol lars for an engine." "A train with surgeons and nurses has alieady gone forward, and we nave no other." With white face and anxious brow the man paced the tloor to and fro. That is his business now. Iu half an hour, perhaps, which seeins to him half a century, the train arrived. He hurried towards it,:aud'in the tender found the mangled and '. lifeless re mains of his -wife and one of his daughters.' Iii the car following lay his daughter with her dainty ribs crushed in, and her precious life ooz ing slowly away. - H, A quart of. whjskey,. which vas drunk fifty miles away, by a railroad employee was thrcaube.. of the catas trophe. ' '" 1' Who dares say of fhis tremendous question, "It is not my business?" "Be not drunk with wine wherein is excess" is the text of a Temperance sermon recently delivered in an Epis copal pulpit, the stress of the argu ment being laid upon the word trans lated excess, which conveys, in the Greek, the idea of utter and irremedi able loss this loss being, according to the eloquent divine, that of self-restraint, which alone distinguishes men from beasts. The thought is a suggestive ouand goes deeper into the foundations of the curse than any of our remedial measures." By so much as a man al lows his baser sensual appetites to dominate over his higher moral and spiritual qualities, by just so much is he deliberately losing the manhood which is himself ; also, loosening the bands of self-restraint in any direction, is preparing the way for degradation all along th. line, aud many a poor, helpless drunkard, tottering on the slippery edge of eternal ruin, commen ced the easy descent, when those who had the care of him gave the baby all the candy he cried for.

Crawford, pam"rs S. Riciiardsox, v The Bee for 1882. In order to extend the circulation of the Wkekly Bee the publishers have placed a larger number of valuable and useful aiticles in their premium list than was ever offered by any news paper. These premiums will be dis tributed among their 'subscribers in the same impartial manner that char acterized their premium distribution last winter. The aggregate value of these premiums is over $40,000. Among these are Three threshing machims, $1,500. Two pianos, $1,200. Twenty-five sewing machines, $1, 500. Three gold watches, and hundreds of other useful and val uable articles. A full list of premiums is published in each number of the Weekly Bee. Sample copies mailed free to any ad dress. Subscription pi ice, Weekly $2.00 per year, six months $1.00. Every person that remits prepay ment for one year will be entitled to one premium. No premium worth at retail less than one dollar. All remit tances most be in before March 1st, as the award will be made on March 4th without fail. Positively no postpone ments. Address remittances and orders for sample copies to The Omaha Publish ing Co., Omaha Nebraska. On the question of Anti-monopoly The Bee hopes to be equal to the emergency as the foremost cham pion of the anti-monopoly cause. Hav ing battled for this cause during more than ten years The Bee has establish ed its title to popular confidence as an earnest and unflinching advocate of the rights of the producer. In cham pioning the common interests of the people against corporate encroach ment The Bee has never advocated the confiscation or wanton destruction of railway property or laws that would bankrupt these corporations, but it in sists that railways should deal fairly by nil their patrons, that they shall not confiscate the products of tho farmer by extortionate tolls, and that they shall not evade their just burden of taxation. The Bee has always been a staunch exponent of republican principles, and it will continue to bat tle for these principles, but it will not sanction the dictatorship of Jay Gould or any other railway manager in po litical affairs through the instrumen tality of the republican party.
