Individuals aud parties in certain
localities, as well as a very few
newspapers of this State are dispos
ed to harp about the election of Van
Wyck from this State to the United
States senate. There is very little
doubt but that his election resulted
from the combination of the friends
of certain ambitious aspirants for
the same office, when it was made
manifest that they could not reach
to the same exalted position as Uni
ted States senator. Before the elec
tion of Mr. Van Wyck the public
knew very little about his opinions
and feelings in regard to the great
interests of this State, but since his
election he has given expression to
opinions that no true friend of Ne
braska can fairly and reasonably
object to, be he republican, demo
crat or greenbacker. Mr.Van Wyck
has proclaimed "That in his election
there are no entangling alliances, no
pledges except those implied in
generous gratitude, so that in the
transfer from the senate chamber of
Nebraska to the senate chamber of
the United States, and entering upon
that higher field of duty, that all
species of property, all classes, all
sections may be alike respected ; that
no one interest shall be promoted at
the sacrifice of others, but in the
spirit of justice and fair play, the
right of all may be conserved."
The reception given to Senator
elect Van Wyck and wife at Nebras
ka City on the eveuing of the 27th
ult., was a brilliant and pleasant af
fair, participated in by citizens of all
political parties. Judge Kinney,
who was his opponent on the dem
ocratic side for senator, was present
at the reception, and delivered a very
neat and appropriate address of wel
come, to which senator-elect Van
Wyck responded in a very feeling
and eloquent manner. We hope to
obtain space in the Journal for the
publication of the address and re
sponse as they will doubtless be read
with great interst by our patrons.
The Schuyler Sun expresses the
truth pretty faithfully in the follow
ing "paragraph. It may as well be
remarked righHiere that the Senator
elect kuows his real friends, aud has,
of course, a great deal more respect
for au open, honest foe than a schem
ing, secret enemy :
General C II. Van Wyck has been
elected United States Senator to suc
ceed Algernon S. Paddock. Mr.
Van Wyck is a geiitleinnu of consid
erable public experiennp. ot unblem
ished personal character, and will
without doubt render as valuable
service to the state as have any of
his predecessors. His own campaign
was honorable. His election was the
result of a caucus ol a caucus of the
so-called anti-Paddock forces ol
factions. Some of these factions
were organized in good faith, others
on the basis of land office appoint
ments, district attorneyships, etc.
The very eminent men composing
them succeeded in doing just what
they were most desirous of not do
ing electing General Van Wyck.
The session of the department
council of the Grand Army of the

John W. Sickles, formerly com
mercial editor of the Chicago Times,
ettempted to commit suicide last
Saturday in a room at the Commer
cial hotel, by cutting the main artery
ot his left wrist. For some years
his attentions and attachment for an
other woman thau his wife, induced
the latter to forsake him, since which
time he has lived with the former,
who recently died, and her death
unsettled his mind and led him to
tho act of Belf-dcstruction. When
found, he had fallen off the bed,
breaking a wash-bowl and pitcher,
aud scattering blood over the bed
and room. The physician said that
three-fourths of his blood was gone,
aud that it was almost a miracle
that his life was saved.
A rkautifpl mirage last Wednes
day morning gave to tho city the ap
pearance of being in the center of a
mammoth basin, the surrounding
country seemingly rising with a
gentle slope in every direction. The
timber and bluffs along the Blue
were plainly visible, the village of
Juniata loomed up on the webteru
horizon and the placid Platte like a
silver sheen joined together the
earth and sky on tho north. Ne
braska scenery may be uuromantic
and even monotonous, but these
most wonderful visions of plain,
river and wood-girted streams, ex
tending miles beyond the usual hor
izon, are scenes of marvelous beau
ty, besido which the boasted scenery
of both the east and west pale into
insignificance. Hastings Gazette.

It ought to be known by every
body that members of the legisla

during which they stood adjourned.
Many of the members were farmers
and had not been home since the
beginuiug of the session, and some
of them had not even beard from

besides, the week would leave but a

the office of tho clerk of the supreme

Island, a petition praying for a di

her husband for more thau five
years, and has committed the crime
of adultery and violated her mar
riage covenants. These are grave
charges to bring against tho daugh

The London limes says the Dub

helplessness and inadequency of or
dinary law to repress illegal organ

the 'miscarriage of a Dublin trial
will be hailed in some quarters as
establishing and sanctioning license.
A recent dispatch from Durban

were afterwards recaptured at the

"Blue Gown," a horse that recog

He had been sold at one time to the
