The conduct of tho Democratic
ollicials of Maine, in regard to the

nounced by Republican senators and
representatives recently elected, and
in a letter to the governor they pro
test against tho arrogant and unau

unprecedented destruction of
rights, the bold usurpation of judi
cial functions, the scandalous secre
tion of public records, hitherto open
to honest inspection.
It is claimed that Jay Gould has
stated to the citizens of Atchison
that the Central Branch road would
be extended to a connection with
the Kansas Pacific at an early date;
that tho St. Joseph & Denver road
would bo extended to Atchison from
a point near Troy Junction, &c, &'C,
and that the new route from Grand
Island on the Union Pacific via
Atchison to St. Louis will be the
shortest aud most direct line tho
west a fiord s between the Pacific
coast and Missouri.
Orn Omaha neighbors of the press
arc not in humor to appreciato a
joke. Jay Gould's railroad projects
in relation to Omaha's interests (?)
arc so much of an enigma that the
editors can't enjoy tho joke of Sen
ator Paddock introducing a bill in
the senate for the croction of a ma
rine hospital in Nebraska City. The
J!ec "thinks it will be a good place
for the sonator to retire." The 7c
publicun "suggests that when Pad
dock is retired he be put with lu
galls on the reservatiou of tho Otoe
and Missouri tribe lands."

Vice President Wheeler was in his
seal in the senate on tho.lsl inst., and
called I hat body to order at noon.
Anthony nnd Bayard were ap
pointed to wait on the president
with a similar committco of the
house aud nnnouncc lo him that con
gress was ready to receive any com
munication. Similnr proceedings were had in
the house nnd announced by "mes
sage in tho senate. Very soon after

received nnd rend.
Mr. Ferry then arose and said the
sorrowful duty devolved upon him
of announcing to tho sennto tho
death of his lato colleague, Zachariah
Chandler. At a future timo ho
would ask tho scnalo to express by

tho character and services of the

a senator present at tho last adjourn
ment and absent now forever, he
moved tho sennto now adjourn.

The Annihilation of Columbus
un Proposed ly llio IJ.P.K.IC.
Mr. Editor: Your city don't
seem to a casual observer quite as
bad as Sodom yet that the Lord
should be compelled to destroy her,
although Jay Gould should havo de
creed so. Cutting oil' tho fanners
from the cast, northeast, north,
northwest nnd west as is proposed
aud nltomptcd, building up si little
nest of a place in the northwest nnd
calling it Platte Centre will not nl
onco destroy a city like yours, ir
her authorities aud citizens know
and do what is ror her benefit.
Tho writer or this over since he
has been in Nebraska has noticed
that our State and our cities, and
ospccially Columbus, for the full
development aud utilization of our
natural resources, need maunufneto-
rics. We import our starch, for
instance, or some or it from Oswego,
N. Y., whore corn and potatoes arc
probably worth $1 per bushel, while
tho material ror starch horo could
bo bought lor from 10 to 25 cents
per bushel ; we import our crockery,
whilo wo have plenty of splendid
potter's clay ; wo import cheese, wo
import woolen goods, whilo our raw
wool goes cast ; hundreds of tons of
Ilax straw aro burned up which
could bo mado into linen, carpets,
etc., aud thus 1 could keep on
enumerating articles that might be
manufactured at home. Columbus
would be just tho place to establish
manufactories of diilcrcut kinds.
The high price or coal has been
pointed to as an obstacle to tho es
tablishment of enterprises of that
kind, but with a water power like
that of tho Loup river such objec
tions aro not worth mentioning.
Only let tho authorities and citi
zens of Columbus be liberal toward
men of capital and enterprise, ofl'or
ing advantages in the way of frco
ground, of exemption rrom taxation
for some years and the liko, and
thus invite such men to come and
establish starch, cheese, woolen aud
other factories, tanneries, foundries,
potteries, manufactories of agricul
tural implements, pnpcr-inille, oil
mills, tlour mills, and so forth, and
so forth. Thus Columbus can not
only keep nlivo and prosperous in
spite of Jay Gould and cohorts, but
it might even come to pass that such
a man would bo glad for not having
accomplished an impossibility in the
way of annihilating a city that at
tracts the farmers from all directions
and gives railroads great masses of
manufactured articles as well as tho
raw produce of tho farmers to carry
abroad. So thinks
Anti-Annihu.ator.

Ci.aridon, O., Nov. 2S, 19.
Dear Journal: In printing my
letter from bore, there was an omis
sion which sadly breaks tho sense.
In speaking of Garfield, I said:
"He docs not appear to have lost by
his steadfast opposition to tamper
ing with the divine command, 'Thou
shall have a perfect aud just weight,
a perfect aud just measure shall
thou have.' Aud what is more curi
ous, Bayard, on the other side, docs
not seem to have lost by equal firm
ness." The first sentence has been
omitted, which would lead a reader
to wonder what the subject was
upon which Garfield and Bayard had
been so creditably firm. c. c.s.
A simple method for testing dia
monds is credited to the London
Times, which consists in the simple
process ofimmercing the specimen
in water, and if it is tho genuine
article it will sparkle with undi
minished light and brilliancy of
color, but ir spurious the fire or the
jewel will be quenched.
ProiIentV M -?;
Wo present themuin features very
briefly.
FINANCIAL.
"Tho resumption ol' specie pay
ments has been followed by a very
great revival of business. Willi u
currency equivalent in .value to the
money of llic commercial world, we
arc enabled to' "cuter upon an equal
competition with other,, nations in
trade and production. Tho increas
ing foreign demand for our manu
factures and agricultural products
has caused a large balance of traHo
in our favor, which has been paid in
gold, from tho 1st of July lat lo
November 15, lo t lie amount of
abouL$50,O00iO00. Sinco the resump
tion of specie payments there has
been a marked and gratifying im
provement of the public crodit. The
bonds of the Government bearing
only -I percent, interest havo sold at
or above par, sufficient in amount to
pay off all the National debt which
was reilccmauic under ine present
laws. Tho amount of interest saved
annually by tho process of refunding
Ihe debt since March 1, 1877, is $11,
297,177."
IIo recommends (lie suspension of
the coinage of silver dollars upon the
present legal ratio.
The president considers the issue
of legal-lender, paper money, based
wholly upon the authority aud credit
of the government, except in cx
Ircnio emergency, ns without war
rant in tho constitution, mid a viola
tion of sound financial principles,
and therefore recommends the accu
mulation of a sinking fund sullicicut
lo extinguish the public debt within
a limited period.
POLYdAMV.
The Supreme Court, having pass
ed upon llio law relative to this
crime, there is no longer any reason
for delay or hesitation in its enforce
ment. It should be firmly and
elleclually executed.
political rioiits.
What tho president has to say on
this subject will meet with hearty
response from all truo patriots. "No
temporary or administrative inter
ests of Government, however urgent
or weighty, will ever displace the
zeal of our people in defense of the
tho primary rights' of citizenship,
and (he power of public opinion will
override all political prejudices, nnd
all sectional and Stale attachments,
in demanding thai all over our wide
territory, the n.iino and character of
citizen of tho United States shall
mean one aud the same thing, and
carry with them unchallenged se
curity and respect."
WHAT IT COSTS.
"Tho total expenditures of the
year ended June 30, 1S7SJ, including
specific appropriations not estimat
ed for by the department, wore $13,
555,710 ()!). Tho expenses charge
able lo the year, after deducting the
amount of those specific appropria
tions, were $12,313,127 70; but this
is subject to a reduction $283,725 1)9,
thai, amount having been drawn up
on warrants, but not paid out dur
ing the year. Tho amount of appro
priations applicable to the last fiscal
year was$ll,53S,(Mn, 17. There was,
therefore, a balaueo of $l,-l(!9,05l 37
remaining unexpended, a,ud to the
credit of tho Department, on June
30, 1S79. The estimates for llio fis
cal year ending Juno 30 1SS1, are
fll.SU 1,117 95, which exceeds the
appropriations for the present fiscal
year $3G1,S97 27. The reason for
this increase is explained in the Sec
retary's report. The appropriations
available for the present fiscal year
arc $1,502,250 07, which will, in the
opinion of the Secretary, answer all
tho ordinary demands of the service.
The amount drawn from the Treas
ury from July 1 to November 1,
ISti), was $5,770,101 12, of which $1,
005,410 3:1 has been refunded, leav
ing as Ihe expenditure for that
period $5,()74,9(3 7Q. If the expendi
tures of tho remaining two-thirds of
tho year do not exceed the propor
tion for these four mouths, there
will remain unexpended, at the end
of the year, $177,359 30 of the cur
rent appropriations. Tho report of
the Secretary shows the gratifying
fact that among all the disbursing
officers of the pay corps of the navy
thei'e is not one who is a defaulter
lo the extent of a single dollar.'
INDIAN AFFAIRS.
The president believes that the
proposed transfer of the care of In
dians, to (he war department, should
not be further agitated.
CIVIL SERVICE.
The president has not forgotten
his sentiments on civil service, and
offers his fellow-citizens a very in
teresting chapter on the subject, to
which wo may have occasion here
after lo refer. He sums up his rec
ommendations on the subject as
follows:
"I am convinced that if a just and
adequate test of merit is enforced
for admission to the public service
and in making promotions, such
abuses as removals without good
cause and partisan and official inter
ference with the proper exercise of
the appointing power, will in largo
measure disappear."
Tiif. Ute Commission on the 1st
was still waiting for the hostilcs to
come in and make their statements
relative to tho massacre at the agen
cy. The commission has received
intelligence that the Mormon militia
had arrived among the Indians aud
are trying to persuade them to re
new the fight, offering to join the
Utcs and furnish men and arms.
Jack is said to be in camp 20 miles
from "White Biver. The Indians
and Peace Commission arc said to
be armed and very uneasy. Henry
Jun, au Indian, who was an inter
preter at tho White Biver agency,
tcstilicd that he knew nothing of
Ihe massacre at the agency, but was
at Milk Biver and knew that Jack
and Colorow led the attack on
Thoinburgh. Douglas and Jack
have not "come iu yet, but arc ex
pected. They say that the party
advancing from Utah, which they
considered soldiers, were Mormons.
Tho samo correspondence says the
Indians are coming in from all
quarters, numbering from COO to
1,000. Utes being camped withiu a
day's ride of the ageucy.
