The result of the Illinois Republi
can convention must not be accepted
as final assurance of General Grant's
nomination by the National Conven
tion. We have no faith in the (state
ment that any contested delegation
from Illinois is likely to be recog
nized, and yet we repeat that the
forty-two Grant votes from Illinois
do not assure a third term. First of
all, it is by no means certain that
Gen. Grant would accept the nom
ination. He has given no sign, no
hint that he desires the presidential
office for a third term. Ilis only ut
terances upon the subject, notably
his letter to Mr. White of Pounayl
vauia, commit him to a desire to
avoid the responsibilities of the po
sition. Many of his intimate friends
assert that he has recently expressed
a wish that tho National Convention
would make choice of Bome other
man, and that either Mr. Washburn
or Judge Kdraunds would be ac
ceptable to him. Now, what, under
the circumstances, may we reason
ably anticipate. When the National
Convention meets, upon the surface
Gen. Grant will have a majority.
Should he then retire, even his most
bitter enemies would ever after con
cede that the nomination was within
his grasp, had he chosen to accept it.
Then, and then only, will be the
proper time for him to make public
statement of his purposes. Up to
that time it would be grossly im
proper for him to express himielf
upon the subject. He could not
refuse to be Presidcut until the
Presidency was tendered to him.
His whole course, from the moment
he entered the army down to to-day,
prove; beyond question that he is
not an office-seeker. He never so
licited an office. His promotions in
the army and his olectious to office
were entirely, so far as the public is
able to discern, without effort on his
part. He seems to be utterly lack
ing in much of the ambition with
which public men are usually eu-
dowed. He seems to be never wor
ried by the future, to have no desire
to cross a bridge until he reaches
it; to move on quietlyand unosten
tatiously to whatever fate has iu
store for him. In this regard he is
the moat supremely dignified citi
zen which American history pre
sents. On the other hand General
Grant is least of all a coward. He
could not be driven into a refusal of
the office b3' any menace of his ene
mies. It would, therefore, doubt
less bo gratifying, as well as highly
proper for him to disregard utterly
the strife now going on in this
country until his friends had achiev
ed a victory through the election of
delegates through the various states
pledged to him a majority in the
National Convention. He could
then, should his friends consent, re
tire with grace, and with the plaud
its of the people for all time. So
much for the personal preferences of
Gen. Grant.
"But," say many earnest gentle
men who arc not enemies of Gener
al Grant, but who doubt the wisdom
of his nomination, "can Gen. Grant
refuse to obey the behests of his
friends who have striven for his
nomination? Would it be fair to
them that he should retire? Let us
see. First of all, we have no assur
ance that Messrs. Logan, Conkling
and Cameron are acting by author
ity of Gen. Grant. The surface
evidence would seem to indicate
that they are not. For instance, it
will be remembered by all that the
eo-called Grant managers began the
campaign in Grant's interest upon
the theory that the ex-President was
a necessity, that an emergency had
arisen which demanded a strong
man for President, and a strous:
Government to repress the turbu
lent South. They started out to
make a "bloody shirt campaign."
No sooner, however, was the thing
fairly under way than Gen. Grant
entered the country from Mexico,
and began donouncing the "bloody
shirt." He committed himself, over
and over again, to the position that
the people of the South were qui
eted, and that no strong Govern
ment was needed. Does this look
like concert of action between Grant
and the Senatorial syndicate? Does
any man imagine that if Gen. Grant
desired the position, and was en
gaged in an intrigue for the nomin
ation, he would adopt the almost
fatal policy of thus slapping his
managers full in the face? Is this
not an assurance that the support of
the party managers has come to
Geu. Grant, utterly without hie sol
icitation ? But boyond this is tbore
any evidence that the nomination of
Judge Edmunds, for iustance,would
be distasteful to the so-called party
managers? Frst, as to Logan, it is
popularly supposed that the swarthy
Senator himself seeks a Presidential
nomination not now, because he
doubtless regards this as impossible :
but in the near future. What, if
such were his desire, would be bis
natpral wish? He must support
Grant for this reason: so long as
the ex-President lives, until he has
either been defeated or elected for.
a third term, he is a perpetual can
caudidate. Common wisdom de
mands that he should be gotten out
of the way, either through a nomin
u.tiou and election, his nomination
and defeat, or his nomination and
retirement. The last of these three
courses would be quite as satisfac
tory as either of the others. Suppose
he should retire, who, then, would
Logan favor? Manifestly Judge
Edmunds. This would carry the
nomination to the East for 1SS0,
with a fair chance that it would
come West iu 1SS4. Washburne
wouldn't do, because it would be
unreasonable to expect that Illinois
could gain the Presidency iu 18S4 if
an Illinoisan were elected now.
Then, 39 to Conkling. What with
the opposition of George William
Curtis and many other men in New
York, Mr. Coukling seems to have
bis hands full in controlling his own
State. His personal dislike for
Blaine and Washburn would lead
him to accept almost any other man
before them. So far as locality is
concerned, Vermont would not be
objectionable, aud would not mako
it impossible for Mr. Conkling to
run in 18S4. Mr. Cameron is much
too young to reasonably expect the
Presidency in the near future. He
will be content if Gen. Grant with
draws, and the candidacy of Judge
Edmunds gives him the opportunity
to unite his delegation, and hold his
control of Pennsylvania. From all
which we gather that it is by no
means improbable that Gen. Grant
may retire, aud Judge Edmunds be
the nominee of the Republican par
ty. One thing alone would render
such a course absolutely impossible,
namely: that the opposition of Gen.
Grant's enemies should become so
virulent as to make it a vindication.
For, with his stubborn disposition,
Gen. Grant will submit to almost
anything rather than appear to yield
to the dictation of bis enemies.

Old Naany'N Light In the Win
dow. On the Michigan Central railroad,
ten miles from Detroit, stands an
old farm-house, now desolate, and
fast going to decay. There, until
lately, lived a poor woman, whose
husbaud and sons had been road
hands, and lost their lives in the
service. Seveu or eight years ago,
when her last child left home to
meet a violent death on this snmo
road, the men of the rails became
interested iu that quaint old farm
house. Oue night ley saw a bright
light iu oue of I windows. Its
rays streamed ou over the Mowers,
and fell upon the raih along which
the wheels thundered, aud the en
gineer wondered over the signal.
The lamp was there the next night,
aud the next, and it was uever
miesed for a single night, until one
evening a month ago. Old Nan,
deprived of husbaud aud children
made trieuds with the rushing trains
aud their burdens. The train men
soon fouud that the lamp was for
them, and they watched for it. Dur
ing the early evening hours, they
saw old Nanny's face behind the
light or at the door, and a thousand
times conductors, engineers and
brakemeu have called cheerily thro'
the darkness "Good-night, Nanny.
God bless you P Winter and sum
mer the trainmen looked for it, and
the more thoughtful ones often left
a bit of money with the station men
beyond to help the old woman keep
the bright rays shining. The lamp
was not there for one train, but for
all, and all men understood the sen
timent and appreciated it. One dark
night, not long ago, when the wind
howled, and the rain beat fiercely
against headlight and cab, the engi
neers missed the light. They look
ed for it again and again, as one
who suddenly misses an old laud
mark in a city, and when they failed
to find it the hand instinctively went
up to the throttle, as if danger
lurked on the curve below. Next
day men went down to the little old
house, fearing old Nanny might be
ill. There sat the lamp on the window-sill,
but the oil was exhausted.
Iu her bed, seeming to have only
fallen asleep, was the poor old wo
mau, cold and dead. Life and lamp
bad gone out together, and men ot
rough manner and hardened heart
replied, as they heard the news:
"Poor old woman I May her spirit
rest in heaven!" Youth's Conipan-ion.

All the most terrible and deadly
weapons of war have been thrown
completely iu the shade by the new
Gatllng gun which was exhibited on
the 27th of March at the office of
Sir W. Armstrong, the manufactur
er, in St. George's, Westminster,
London, before a number of experts.
This fearful weapon is capable of
tiriug a thousand shots per minute
aud killing a man on a horse at a
mile range. It has a compact ap
pearance, can be J en to pieces aud
easily carried abc ,.?, cau be applied
to military ami x.aval use, and the
mechanism of it it simplicity itself;
the revolving band has two com
partments, into which, as they whirl
round, metal cartridges drop from a
tall, oblong case fixed over the cen
ter of the barrel. At each turn of
the handle ten shots are fired, aud
their dispersion is accomplished by
a slidiug apparatus. The size of
shot in different calibre guns of this
clast ranges from musket balls to
half pounders. By the use of this
implement three men can do the
work of three hundred single men.
A quarter of a million of dollars is
said to have been spent on experi
ment! necessary to perfect the guu,
which is now declared by every
military expert to be a complete
success.

Two brief articles have been pre
pared aud published, and left stand
ing in the Journal, relative to
Nebraska, its advantages and pro
ducts. One more short article must
close the series for this season.
To persons who never saw a prai
rie country, to look over it is rather
an interesting sight; &s a general
thing the absence of timber gives to
it the appearance of waste and bar
renness to thoso who are accustomed
to live in a timbered country. Tim
ber of every kind common to this
latitude can be cultivated on the
prairies of Nebraska. Near the wa
ter courses and river bluffs a large
quantity of trees are generally found
growing in great luxuriance.
Among the varieties found in such
localities are cottonwood, box-elder,
buckeye, maple, locust, ash, hickory,
oak, willow, poplar, sycamore, wal
nut, pine and cedar. The shrubs
include common juniper, pawpaw,
prickly ash, sumacs, red root, spin
dle tree, plum, currants aud goose
berries, dogwood, butter bush, buffa
lo berry, mulberry and hazlenut.
Cedars are found on the islands of
the Platte, and along the Loup, and
on the Niobrara there is a large
quantity of pine.
But the interesting point wo waut
to make is the fact that all this
variety of trees will grow and flour
ish on the prairie,- and that as much
timber as may be needed by each
farmer can be raised ou his farm.
It is not a little surprising to know
that the early travelers, aud, among
others, Gen. Fremont, should have
formed the opinion that the prairies
of Nebraska were a sandy desert,
unsuited for farming purposes, when
in these times it has been examined
by competent judges aud pronounc
ed without any hesitation to be a
region which is to be the great grain
and stock -producing area of the
continent. Men don't mako bread
of sand, and they don't, as a general
thing, settle in such localities. The
United States cover 23 degrees of
latitude; away to the frozen north,
aud down to the semi-tropic south.
With all this choice, from the be
ginning of western settlement the
great current of movement has been
within a central belt five or six de
grees in width, and nearly corres
ponding with the latitudinal length
of Illinois, which lies between 36
degrees, 50 minutes aud H degrees.
This is the belt in the United States
in which industry obtains the most
certain aud highest rewards. It is
temperate In climate and a man
can work up to his best notch. The
land is fruitful, and bears in groat
abundance those products which are
necessaries of life, and which there
fore have a steady commercial value.
The population of Nebraska iu the
beginning of 185b' was 10,716, and at
the closo of 1875, 259,&12, which was
a twenty-tive-fold increase in twen
ty years.
Corn in Nebraska is most bounti
ful in production ; with fair cultiva
tion the yield is from 50 to CO bush
els per acre. Wheat from 15 to 25
bushels per acre. Barley from 30 to
40 bushels. Rye 25 to 30 bushels.
Oats 40 to 50 bushels. A country
which is adapted to the raising of
corn ; small grains ; good for grass
and bay, and has at all times a fa
vorable climate, must be a good
location for stock-raising. Live
stock is in great demand the civilized
over, and it is in live stock the far
mer finds a great deal of his wealth.
It has been demonstrated among
the Nebraska farmers that mixed
farming is the most profitable, there
fore every farmer should combine
grain and stock raising. In fact
every farmer that has carried cattle
upon his farm and handled them
with judgment for any length of
time is now enjoying the rich profits
of his investment and labor. Look
around among your neighbors and
in every case where money has been
invested in slock and handled with
care it has brought the largest in
crease iu dollars aud cents to thoso
who have Invested. And there is
room in Nebraska for hundreds of
thousands more farmers.

TO THE PUBLIC.
Special Notice
AND
CAUTION"
It has come to my knowledge that
certain would - be rival showmen,
having no reputation of their own,
are making disreputable efforts to
avail themselves of the reputation
which I have honestly earned dur
ing the past forty years, by keeping
faith with the public, performiugall
my promises, and ADVERTISING
NOTHING WHICH I DO NOT
EXHIBIT.
Some of these dishonest fellows
claim to be related to me, and set
reports afloat, in an underhanded
way, that I have an-interest iu their
petty shows, in order to give them
a character which they do uot merit,
thus deceiving the public, and mak
ing me responsible for exhibitions
which are iu no way worthy of pub
lic regard.
Now, I wish to state, emphatical
ly, that I have no connection with
any show or exhibition iu the world
except my own aud ONLY
GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH,
which wU exhibit in
Columbus. Saturday Af
tarnoon, Only, July 31st,
and which merits and has received
the unqualified approbation of the

That cleanliness is essential to
health is a fact that cannot bo ques
tioned: nor is it to be wondered at
when we remember that the 6kin of
an ordinary-si.ed man has been cal
culated to contiiiu about twenty
eight miles of perspiratory tubes
continually exuding more or less
moisture, and relieving the body of
a large amount of waste matter.
The mischief which must follow the
obstruction of this immense drain
by dirt mid other causes must be
obviotip. The skiu is also a great
breathing surface, which is proved
by the fact that if an animal is coat
ed with an impermeable varnish it
is suffocated in a short time just as
effectually as if it had been stran
gled with a cord. Lastly, the skiu
is a great absorbent of various mat
ter coming iu contact with it, and in
this way lead, arsenic and other
poisons may enter the body. Clean
liness is, therefore, absolutely nec
essary in (1) promoting a healthy
perBpiration, and through this a
uniform temperature of the body ;(2)
in largely assisting the lungs in the
performance of the function of res
piration ; (3) iu preventing the ab
sorption of poisonous matter. To
clean the skin thoroughly from the
scurf and oily matter, soft water
will bo found more effectual than
hard, its solvent power for saline
matter being greater, and, wheu
soap is added, the oily matter is at
once saponified and the cleansing is
complete. Soap and water should
be used at least twice in the twenty-
four hours on the exposed parts, the
face and hands, and the whole body
ehould be sponged daily with cold
or lukewarm water or soap. Warm
water or the Turkish bath (in suit
table cases) should be used about
once a week, and will be found con
ducive to health. Cleauliuossin the
matter of clothing is also very im
portant, as through this channel
germs of disease are carried about
which not only infect the person
carrying thorn, but likewise those
with whom they come in contact.

"Have you a mother-in-law?"
asked a man of a disconsolate-looking
person. "No," he replied, "but
I've a father in jail."
"But I pass' said a minister re
cently in dismissing one theme of
his subject to take up another.
"Then I make it spades," yelled a
man from the gallery, who was
dreaming the happy hours away in
an imaginary game of euchre. It is
needless to say that he went out on
the next deal, assisted by one of tho
deacons.
"Do yon belioye in tho use of tho
rod, my dear professor?" asked a
lady whose children were making
life a burden to all the guests at the
hotel. "In Bomo cases, madam; but
there are others," glancing at her
gamboling darlings, "whore I prefer
the revolver."
There is one matrimonial rule
that can be depended upon as of
uuiversal application. A husband
will never find auy difficulty in foot
ing his wife's bills, provided the
wife is so put together that she is
not ashamed to foot her husband's
stockings.
"Have yon the song, 'Saccharine
Futurity?'" asked a Boston girl of
the music clerk. "We have," he
answered, as with a pleasant smile
he rolled up a copy of the "Sweet
By and By."
"We must not speak all we know
that were folly; but what a man
says should bo what he thinks
otherwise it is knavery.
The following rules aro worthy
of being printed in letters of gold,
and placed in a conspicuous place in
every household.
1. From your children's earliest
infancy inculcate the necessity of
instant obedience.
2. Unite firmness with gentle
ness. Let your children always un
derstand that you mean what you
say.
3. Never promise them anything
unless you are quite sure you can
give what you say.
4. If you tell a child to do some
thing, show him how to do it, and
see that it is done.
5. Always punish vour child for
willfully disobeying you, but never
punish in anger.
6. Never let them perceive that
they vex you, or make you lose your
self-command.
7. If they give way to petulance
or ill-temper, wait till they are calm,
and then gently reason with them
on the impropriety of their conduct.
8. Romember that a little present
punishment, when the occasion
arises, is much more effectual than
the threatening of a greater punish
ment should the fault be renewed.
9. Never give yourcbildren any
thing because they cry for it.
10. On no account allow them to
do atone time what you have for
bidden, under the same circumstan
ces, at another.
11. Teach them that the only
sure and easy way to appoar good
is to be good.
12. Accustom them to make their
little recitals with perfect truth.
13. Never allow tale-bearing.
14. Teach them self-denial, not
self-indulgence of an angry and
resentful spirit.
