The Lincoln Journal says: Ne braska fruit has taken the premium several times at the National Horti cultural exposition, and now she comes to the front on big stock.

The largest apple on record was raised in Cass county, Nebraska. There was a terrible fire in the old World buildiug, on the 31st ult., in New York.

The old World building is a mass of ruins, and is guarded by a forco of police ; a number of engines were still plying streams of water on the yet burning mass. It is certain the fire orignated from a defective flue. Other buildings were only slightly Injured. They bad a big small-pox scare iu Omaha the other day on Tenth street. A stranger was found prom enading that busy street with his face all broken out with small-pox. A number of persons were exposed to the disease on tenth street The man was at once removed to the hospital. There was another case reported in the northwest part of the city. There are five cases at the hospital, all of whom are reported doing well. Dr. Neilson, John O'Connor and John Walls are the only persons who died of small-pox in Omaha. There appears to be considerable excitement about the dismissal of Profs. Emerson, Church and Wood berry by the chancellor from the State University, as teachers. Some claim that the action dismissing them was bad on account of their relig ious creed ; if so, then the state sho'd correct the error, and by prompt action investigate the removal, and find out the true cause, and if the removal was brought about from sectarian views or intolerance by a set of bigots, then it wonld be well for the state to turn out the entire faculty and procure a new one that will be able to teach the sciences In place of religious dogmas. The state of Nebraska is supposed to be running the State University, and has not heretofore, and certainly does not intend in the future to run the University in the particular in terest of any religious denomina tion, and the regents and faculty who are laboring aider any other impression are certaiuly following a delusion that will in the end bring the University into disrepute, and deprive those gentlemen of their places in connection with it Galteaa ! Ceart. The court met pursuant to adjourn ment Feb. 3. The affidavits and argument for new trial were submit ed, and the court took all papers in the case under advisement, court ad journed nntil Feb 4th. When court convened on Saturday morning, Feb. 4th, Judge Cox imme diately began to deliver his opinion on the motion for a new trial, which be concluded as follows: From all the papers presented, Judge Cox said, I am unableto find any reason to grant the motion, which Is there fore overruled. Thereupon Judge Cox requested the prisoner to stand up. Judge "Have you any thing to say why sentence should not now be passed upon yon?" Guiteau "I ask your honor to postpone the sentence as long as possible." Judge Cox at some length then addressed the pris oner, finally pronouncing the sen tence of the law, that be be taken to the common jail in the district, from whence he came, and there be kept in confinement, and on Friday, the 30th day of Jane, 1882, be taken to the place prepared for his execution, within the walls of the said jail, and there between the hoars of 12 and 2 p. m be hanged by the neck until dead. Waaea' Blghta. In the course of a few months the question of equal suffrage for women will be submitted to the citizens of Nebraska for their decision, but iu the meantime let the women avail themselves of the rights already accorded to them in a direction where none, however conservative, can help but admit that they should have as great or greater interest than men. viz: in the DroDer educa tion of their children, and, as many do not seem to be aware of the re quirements of the law as it now stands, I subjoin the Section having reference to this matter: "Every voter and every woman who has resided in the district forty days and is over twenty-one years of age and who owns real property in the district 6hall be entitled to vote at any district meeting. Every voter and every woman who has resided in the district forty days and is over twenty-one years of age, and who owns personal property assess ed in his or her name at the last assessment, shall be entitled to vote at any district meeting. Every voter and every woman who has resided iu the district forty days,and who has children of school age re siding in the district, shall be en titled to vote at any district meet ing." It will thus be seen that the law makeB no distinction between the sexes as to the qualification to participate in our School meetings, and I would therefore say to our Women Suffragists, "Come forward and exercise what rights you already have, and show that you are consis tent with your professions, and when the community see the great benefit to be derived from such an association they will be better pre pared to take another step in the direction of reform and right." Equal Rights. Quite an excitement prevails in the east over the report that Scoville has written Mr. Ridgeway, of New York, that the relatives of- Guiteau are inclined to think favorably of his proposition to purchase the body of Guiteau. His proposition is $5, 000 for the body with the privilege of exhibiting it throughout the country, with the prospect of real izing $40,000. Mrs. Scoville indig nantly denies the truthfulness of the report, and thinks her husband would not consent to such a horrible thing as the exhibition of his body about the country for the purpose of making money. Throughout Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and at Washington City a heavy and driving snow storm prevailed on the 4th. In Philadelphia and Washing ton City the snow fall is over a foot on the level, and travel greatly im peded. Mrs. Mary Yetzeb, of Des Moines, Iowa, has filed a bill for divorce, and $100,000 against ber husband, J. C. Yetzer, a wealthy banker, charging him with adultery. The trial, it is thought, will be sens ational. Commissioners Proceedings. Tuesday, Jan. 24tb, 1882.
