Senator Corbin of South Carolina
was most dreadfully sold the other
daj at Denver by a confidence man,
who represented that he had bricks
of gold Q'the pure stuff"), which he
dare not sell openly owing to the
manner in which he had acquired
them, but the gold could be tested,
he said, and there was a fortune in
the purchase of them to the man who
had the ready cash. Corbin sent
east, borrowed $10,000, and got the
bricks in exchange. About $50
worth of gold had been used in
"doctoring" the bricks, aud Senator
Corbin is a somewhat wiser man.

President Hayes has expressed a
determined opposition to the politi
cal reorganization of clerks of the
several departments into State As
sociations, aud says he could have
no objection to the Clerks when
their departments were closed to
mingle as they pleased as individ

the Government should not be
permitted to suffer by their acting
as organized bodies under the pen
alty of dismissal.
Minister "Welsh cannot live in a
"becoming" manner on his salary of
$17,500 not less than $10,000 would
answer the purpose. And people
arc inquiring still more loudly than
they have ever done, What is the use
of a minister to England or any oth
er placo, at any cost? If foreign
countries are anxious to sec a Re
publican citizen let them come to
America and look at him on his na
tive heath. Certainly our govern
ment can have its work done in a
much better way by employing
specialists than by keeping a resi
dent minister.

Ed. Howe of the Atchison Globe
has this to say of our new railroad :
" The tents of the graders dot the
prairies iu a uorthwesterly direc
tion from Lincoln, and we were in
formed that five hundred men and
teams were at work between that
point and Milford, on the Blue.
Twenty-three miles of grading has
been finished up to Saturday night,
and between the 10th and 15th track
laying will commence. The entire
line will be made ready for the iron
this year, and the road put iu oper
ation to the Platte River. This win
ter the contractors will be engaged
in bridging that rambling and his
toric stream."
"It was the denial of their rights
that made the south attempt seces
sion, and the only cause of the civil
war, for which the republican party
alone is responsible." Columbus
Democrat. What right denied was
it that made the south "attempt"
secession?- The parties that didn't
attempt secession are "the only cause
of the civil war," forsooth! And
the Republican part)', which didn't
attempt secession, is "alone'' respon
sible ! Wonderful, admirable logic !
Jefferson Dayis, late president of the
late Confederacy, ought to .have thi3
precious paragraph of profound po
litical philosophy for his forthcom
ing book, in which, it is said, he
devotes a great deal of space to the
vindication of the secessionists.
What better vindication could they
have than this from a Nebraska
Bourbou newspaper?
Is the United States a button V
Hon. Alex. H. Stephens has al
ways been regarded as among the
temperate, moderate men of the
south ; as of the number who very
reluctantly went into rebellion, and
who would gladly have turned the
tide of secession (had it been in his
power), and preserved the unity of
the government. Within the last
week, a radical unionist declared to
us his great respect for Stephens,
and admiration for his conduct dur
ing the first of the rebellion move
ments, and named him as one among
a dozen men that he could support
for President. All such will be a
little surprised when they read a
letter which Mr. Stephens lately
wrote to the editor of the Louisville
Democrat in which he savs, anion"
other things : " I never did espouse
or advocate the policy of State see
cession from the Union. The right
of secession I never questioned, and
have defended with all the power I
could command, but my judgment
was very decided against the policy."
Can any oue, after such utterance,
doubt concerning Stephens's place in
the lists? He was opposed, at that
time, to the States going out of the
Union, but conceded the right to go
at any time. It was not the time to
secede. Of course, believing in the
right of secession, he must have
subscribed to President Buchanan's
pusillanimous utterance that there
was no power in the federal gov
ernment to coerce a seceding State.
Will our friend of the Democrat
iuform his readers as to his particu
lar stand on this proposition ? There
is a good deal of loose talk about
State rights, let it be reduced to
particulars. What arc "State rights"
anyhow, and is the right of secession
one of them ? Is the Democrat man
a secessionist like Stephens, does he
believe there is iio power in the
federal government to coerce a se
ceding State or doe3 he hold to the
Union of the States under the con
stitution of the Union? Are we a
nation or a conglomeration of States
severally claiming to exercise the
function of a natiou? Every in
telligent, ardent patriot, conscious
of the supreme sentiment which
binds him to his country, has an
utter loathing for the doctrines of
disunion, seceiou and nullification.
NEBRASKA STATE FAIR.

Every preparation is being made

They Take an Interest in Us.
We are gratified to know that our
neighbors are taking considerable
interest in our prospective welfare.
Isn't thero an old proverb some
where which makes a quiet sugges
tion not to count your chickens
before they are hatched ? But here
is what the last Schuyler Sun has to
say of the situation:
"By a reference to the communi
cation of our correspondent, Spades,
it will be seen that our sister village
is at last to secure the long promised
depot. While we congratulate our
Richland friends on this long looked
for improvement we are inclined to
indulge iu a prophecy as to some of
its results. It is no longer a matter
of speculation whether or not the
U. P. road will construct a northern
lino extending from Jackson to
Xorfolk. The intention of the man
agers to do this is confirmed by
good authority and without doubt
the road will be under course of
construction. With a road extend
ing through Platte county and but a
few miles distant trom Columbus
the grain market and trading points
will of necessity be in some degree
changed. Thus'it the Uuion Pacific
should oiler better rates from Jack
6on and other points on the exten
sion than would be given Columbus
the trade would naturally gravitate
toward those points and away from
the so-called future Capital. With
the trade to a large extent on that
side drawn away the next move
would be to make the rates low
enough from Richland and Schuyler
to draw what remained on this side
and thus place a damper on Colum
bus' business until such time as she
lXgiven a southern outlet."
Xow, take it for granted that tho
U. P. will construct a line from
Jackson to Madison and beyond,
will that fact help Richland or
Schuyler? It might, if they should
be graciously vouchsafed much low
er rates than Columbus. Those two
places on the east of us and Jackson
on the west will have only theU.P.
to give them rates, while Columbus
will have the U. P. and the A. & X.
certainly, and the B. & M., and a
Sioux City road probably. Wo have
no fears, in such a contest, for the
future of Columbus. If we under
stand the temper of the great body
of the people of Columbus and
Platte county it is that they seek no
war with any corporation nor will
they "tie up" with any. Fair play
and reasonable rates, is what this
people desire, and we undertake to
say that they will get both. If the
U. P. R. R. Co. desires to start a
town or two near the center ot the
county, and foster the spirit of jeal
ousy and local pride to the end of
removal of the county-seat, there is
no law forbidding it, that we know
of. If they aro anxious to "squelch"
Columbus, because she wouldn't
consent to "marry" the U. P. Co.
and discard the A. & X., and will
build up Jackson on the west, "Kin
ney" aud "Loveland" on the exten
sion, and Richland on the east, each
only six io nine miles distant from
Columbus, they have an undoubted
right to begin that work at once,
aud even before tho A. & X. reaches
us. We know that not one singlo
straw will be put iu the way of the
U. P. to prevent the construction of
their proposed road from Jackson
to Madison, all these things belong
to themselves ; it is their business
aud theirs alone, and they are re
sponsible for the spirit which actu
ates them. Columbus and Platte
county have talked railroad once,
talked it loud and strong, talked it
straight and square, talked it from
the heart, and doubtless in due time
will have something more to say.
Iu short, it is the business of Platte
county and Columbus to attend
strictly to their own knitting, and
leave the whole wide world (which
of course includes the U. P. and the
numerous villages above named) to
the exclusive care of their own. The
Journal entertains no atom of
doubt or misgiving as to the result.
U. P. Combinations.
The eastern terminus of Jay
Gould's scheme of roads is at Toledo.
Freight from points west of Chey
enne are shipped by the Kansas
Pacific, Kansas Xorthcrn & Wabash.
The X. Y. Public, au acknowl
aged authority in railway matters,
in commenting upon the recent com
binations and' affiliations of the U. P.
Company, says of its proposed con
nection with the Pennsylvania Co. :
"it would enable the Union Pacific
to unite with itself another strong
corporation in any leases or guar
antees that might be desirable. Last,
but not least, it would make a very
important difference in the political
and judicial influence of the alliance
in contingencies which may not be
very remote."
The last is a very significant sug
gestion. This sort of influence has
been altogether too much of late, aud
if carried too far will arouse such a
sentiment as will not be satis
fied until railroads are carried
out of politics. It is reasonable to
suppose that corporations with
such vast interests at stake would
feel a concern iu preserving their
just rights from encroachment. This
would be not only proper but com
mendable, but to assume to them
selves all the functions of govern
ment through "tools" of their own
nomination and election is the
vaulting ambition which will o'er
leap itself, and fall on t'other side.
Supreme Court of IVcl., Augr 7.
The following from the Lincoln
Journal will be of interest to parties
concerned, and to the legal frater
nity :
Blaco vs. Hallen, lroni Washing
ton County. Deoided last term of
court. Opiuion now filed by Lake,
Judge.
21. The complaiut under tho stat
ute for the forcible entry and deten
tion of property merely charged
that the defendant entered on the
premises iu controversy, "with force
and violence," and that'he had "with
force detained the same." Held,
That it was fatally defective in
omittiug to charge that such entry
and detention were unlawful, and
conferred no jurisdiction upon the
court to issue the summons.
2. County court have jurisdic
tion of actions for the lorcible entry
and detention of real property.
Dale vs. Doddridge. Error from
Platte county. Reversed and re
manded. Opinion by Maxwell,
Ch. J.
1. Where an act is to be perform
ed in a certain lime, a3 within three,
days after the service of a notice,
the party notified has the whole
three days in which to perform the
act, and an action instituted on the
third day is premature.
2. The judgment of a Justice of
the Peace, or of the District Court
in proceedings in forcible entry and
detainer is conclusive in that pro
ceedings on the matter in issue at
the time of rendition, unless such
judgment is reversed or modified by
proceedings in error. But the judg
ment is no bar to another action in
relation to the title of the premises.
