HOCKNELL , Secretary. Chairman. a'WE have 'before us a copy 'of the Kenesaw Times , a nc.it ancb-Tvell-edited journal by Geo. T. "Williams witR which we are Ceased to exchange. . PRESIDENT AUTHUR paid a long visit to General Grant , atthe latter's hotel in Washington , on Saturday , and the polit ical wise-acres are novr all out of joint. EVERY time.some small calibred Gov ernor signs a popular bill , alight-weight quill-driver rises up and with uncovered , -head nominates him for President. 0 temporal THE lower Mississippi is already op the rampage , * and the returns have scarcely commenced to come in. Evi dently the valley will be overwhelmed in a few days with a flood that shall j ut to shame all previous efforts of the stream to get as high as it can. see it stated that A. E. Powers , Tvho now drives the editorial quill on ihe Wymorian , our excellent Wymore exchange , intends starting a paper in Frontier county. If Frontier can sup port a journal we know of no one we would sooner have bring it into life. * THE Omaha and Lincoln dailies bear about the same relationship to the "ir repressible Rosey" that "Deacon" Inger- sell accredits tbe pulpit as exercising in his favor : His best advertisers. E. llosewater believes in printer's inkand , consequently keeps the ball rolling. As minister of this country to Ger many , it was , perhaps , not permitted to Sargent to decline the invitation to dine with , the Emperor. His invitation to the soiree , for a like-reason , we suppose must be respected. America seems to be as desirous of subscribing to all the forms of court etiquette "among the powers" as the latter , are careless of ourselves on many of our dearest inter ests and opinions. THE Lieutenant Governor of Kansas has made a report of his conclusions after visiting the cattle disease stricken district. They are that the disease is not the "foot-and-mouth" disease , but * the difficulty arises from extreme cold , saline water and alkali in the soil. These may. aggravate the disease but they will notaccount fora similar break ing out * in portions of Iowa and Illinois. WE produce the call of the Chairman of the County Central Committee for the several prccinets to send delegates to meet in convention at Indianola , Sat urday , April 5th , at 1 o'clock , P. M.y for the purpose of erecting four dele gates each to the District and State Conventions. Saturday , March 20th , from 1 to 7 o'clock , P. M. , is recom mended as the dflte for the several pre cincts to hold their meetings for the election.of ; said delegates. f V ORRIN A. CARPENTER , ivho was re cently tried for' the murder of Zorn Burns at Petersburg , 111. , and acquitted , is not out of danger yet A dispatch from there says that nine-tenths of the people of Logan county believe Carpen ter guilty , and a circular .has been issued and is being'generally signed for ajmasf meeting to be held at two o'clock , Wednesdayjafteinoon , for thejpurpose of "expressing their views upon the recent trial. " The circular closes ty inviting all persons who favor the en forcement of the laws and the prompl punishment of criminals to attend , While the evidence adduced at the tria ! was not sufficiently strong to convict , the Journal is of the opinion that Car penter knows more about the tragedy than he is willing to admit. His reticenl manner regarding the affair throughQui the trial has been extremely noticeable , and the people of Logan county shoulc use their utmost endeavors to get at the facts. However , we trust they will be cool-headed enough to abstain from anj violence until something more conclu sive has been brought to light. Topics THE fast mails do not seem to be hall so much appreciated as the fast females down in slow going Cincinnati. The Commercial Gazette says that the great fast mail between New York arid Chicago cage , of which we have heard so much , has a record only about 35 miles an hour. "The Flying Dutchman , " a broad guage train of England , regularly makes 198 at the rate of 46. G miles an hour , and the "Flying Scotchman , " a narrow guage train , 189 miles at the rate of 48.2 miles an hour. The great fast mail is two hours and five minutes slow er than the limited express on the Pennsylvania road. Let the f. in. wcai the cow-catcher behind. Bee. THERE are whisperings of something new lor Nebraska. It is to the effect that 9 fast mail train is to be put on the B. & 'M. from Omaha-to Denver ; This is what the state needs and it will be of great advantage .to the people. The destruction of distance is what we all want. The desire to be as near Chica go , New York and Washington as pos sible is universal. We cannot decrease the number but these fast trains will do a great deal toward shortening Che time required to make the trip. The B. & M. have done wonders for the state and if its managers and Gen. Greshain will give us a fast mail train they will do still greater good. Gazette-Journal. HUNTINGTON must be up to some more crooked work. He certainly has taken a roundabout way , ingoing clear to the Connecticut Legislature , to secure a charter for the Southern Pacific rail way. The Legislators of the Nutmeg state , however , are rather suspicious ind will probably refuse Mr. Hunting- ton's request. They can't see how the Southern Pacific is of any benefit to Connecticut , and they don't understand vhy Mr. Huntington should go so far iway from home to get a charter. Bee- THE Commercial Advertiser thinks , ind we agree with it , that the United states receives a vast deal more abuse ban it deserves from the British and ontnental press for its alleged manu- acture and traffic in dynamite and other ombustibles. Vienna is at present xercised over the finding in that city of ynauiite booms , which , it ; is known , ere manufactured in Switzerland. tepublican. THE widow of that ex-Michigander 'ho bequeathed five thousand dollars ach to his favorite funny men , Josh lillings and Eli Perkins , and remein- ered the mother of Artemus Ward ith a similar bequest , has no humor in er soul and contests the will on the round that the old gentleman was razy. THE call 'for the convention for the econd Congressional District appears i this issue. It will be noticed that ae convention is to be held on the 22d F April in Hastings , and that the ap- ortionment is on the same basis as lat of the State Convention. EL MAHDI has eighteen wives.

The State National Boulder is the latest to.go up. KSS t S " * DUNBAR , Neb. , wanted a saloon that is , a part of the citizens wanted it. But the fellows that wanted itjt seems , were men who had been such good pat rons of this kind of resorts heretofore that their names were not worth much on a petition for a license. One man was found , however , who had the nee- , essary qualifiacations.in the shape of a town lot. He signed the petition and transferred the title to a friend , who also signed the petition , and transferred the lot to another , who did likewise , and so on until the petition was of the proper dimensions , when the lot was conveyed to the origina owner. It is alleged that the property changed own- erfhip nine times in one day. The scheme was a brilliant one , and reflects great genius on its projectors , but the authorities failed to reward the origin ality exhibited by granting the license. THE announcement has been made of the marriage engagement of Mrs. Frank Leslie to Marquis do Leuville. He is a member of an old French family , and met Mrs. Leslie when she was in Eu rope. Mrs. Leslie was originally the wife of E. Or. Squier , the explorer of Nicarague. She left him to marry Les lie who account of , an Englishman , , on some trouble in the old country , dropped his real name of Carter. Mrs. Leslie is now about to try her luck a third time , to one of the brood of counts whose profession is to marry rich Amer ican women. Mrs. Leslie is , however , an excellent woman of business , and the count may be placing his hopes in unhatched chickens. Ouu driiAXlst , Dr. S. L.
