Greelev is dead, and that his companions are suffering and must soon meet with a similar fate. The other morning two men were killed and a boy fatally injured, at a railway crossing in Detroit, by a Michigan Central locomotive.

O'Donnell, who removed inform er Carey, feels bitterly against the Dublin Irishmen who have taken no steps to raise funds for his defense. Appeals have recently been made to the trado unions of Great Britain to render pecuniary aid to the 10,000 weavers now on a strike 'in Lan cashire. The party of newspaper men from the east who have just returned from a trip to the west express surprise at the resources and scenery of the new northwest. Last week there was another ex citement in tho shipments of grain by lake from Chicago. Charters were made of vessels carrying over a mil lion bushels. Sallie Johnson, a belle in Balti more society, committed suicide one day last week by hanging herself from the third story of the staircase of her fathers residence. A Washoe Co., Nevada, farmer has raised forty tons of cabbages on one acre of land. The account fails to state how many summers it took to grow the forty tons. Alex. Kimmelehn, a Dane, con nected with the foreign exposition, killed himself the other day at Bos ton. Ho was 25 years old, and the owner of considerable property. It is said of a Camden (N. J.) man that he put an iron weight on his cow's tail. It was not heavy enough to keep the cows tail down, but it broke his jaw when she reached for a fly. After the 30th of this month the star route from Niobrara to Ft. Ran dall, Dakota, will be discontinued, as the mail service :n that section of the country can now be supplied by rail road.

The convention was called to order at Lincoln on the 26th nit. by G. W. E. Dorsey, chairman of tho state cen tral committee.' Church Howe, ofNe: ua, was chosen chairman of the convention and his appointment made permanent. W. H. Michael, or Grand .Island, was elected temporary secretary, and subsequently made permanent. On motion of J. C. McBride a com mittee on credentials was appointed, and the committee reported the Hit of delegates entitled to seats ia. the con vention and the report was adopted, which included the names of some 354 delegates. The delegates in at tendance from this county were M. Whitmoyer, Ed. Moncrief, W. A. Mc Allister, Chris Meedel by John M. Macfarland, proxy, G. Knowles by W. M. Cornelius, proxy. Gere of Lancaster, Weaver of Rich ardson, Watson of Otoe, Sbedd of Saunders, Scott of Buffalo, Valentine of Cuming, Dolan of Red Willow, Cole of Hall.

The convention then proceeded to ballot forjudge of the supreme court, Hamer leading in the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, and on the eighth ballot Hamer and Reese had a tie vote of 119 each. The ninth ballot mads the nomination. The Slate Journal reports it as follows: "At the opening of this ballot several counties changed from their former vote, Burt leading off for Lake, and being followed by several others, Douglas voting solid for him. Ha Bier's friends stuck to him until the cIobb of the roll call, when it was apparent that Lako had absorbed Warren's strength. Hartman, of Buf falo, announced the change of that county from Hamer to Reese. This was followed by a storm of changes as all of Hauler's friends followed, Lancaster going solidly with twenty four votes for Reese. Amid tremen dous enthusiasm the nomination of Reese was made unanimous." The convention then proceeded to nominate candidates for regents of the state university. M. J. Hull of Clay, J. M. Hiatt of Harlan, were nominated from the Second congres sional district, Hull for the long term and Hiatt for the short term. From the Third district John T. Mallalieu ofBuffalo county was nominated for the long term and E. P. Holmes of Pierce, for the short term. In this ballot W. A. McAllister of Platte re ceived 102 votes for regent. G. W. E. Dorsey continned chair man of the state central committee with J. W. Early local member. The chairman on resolutions re ported the following platform : We, the republicans of Nebraska, in convention assembled, reaffirm the great principles upon which the na tional republican party has appealed to the people and received their en dorsement in six successive presi dential campaigns ; and which, having been made the basis of constitutional amendments, and introduced in the great body of onr federal law for the administration of justice, the disposi tion of our public lands, the manage ment of finances, the collection of revenue and the settlement of inter national differences, have solidified the nation and inaugurated an era of unexampled prosperity. 2. We hold to the policy of collect ing the revenues of the country from a tariff on imports so adjusted as to favor and protect domestic industries, and encourage the immigration to our shores of laborers to perform the ser vices we need on onr own soil, paying tribute to our own government, rath er than the importation of the pro ducts of labor that is tributary to a foreign and perhaps hostile govern ment. 3. We favor an amendment to the constitution of the state by the inser tion of a clause permitting the estab lishment of a board of commissioners whose duty shall be to enforce such legislation as may be enacted for the prevention of extortion and unjust discrimination on the part of railroad and telegraph companies. 4. We favor the enactment of legis lation by congress forfeiting every acre of public land granted to cor porations and not earned by a strict compliance with the law, and the restoring of the same to the public domain. And we endorse the recent decision of the administration to the effect that pnblic landB are not to be monopolized as cattle ranges, but are open to actual settlers. 5. We favor legislation by congress requiring corporations to which lands have been granted from the puhlic domain to take their patents as soon as such grants have been earned, so that they may be subject to taxation, or to forfeit their grants. G. We heartily endorse the wise and patriotic policy that has been pursued by President Chester A. Ar thur, and the work of the late repub lican congress in equalizing the tariff and to reduce the revenues without failing to meet the interest and to reduce, the principal of the national debt, and in providing for the im provement of the navigation of the great rivers of the west and south. Two packages of mutilated money were received at the Redemption Bu reau of the Treasury Department on Sept. 10. One package contained what was said to be $450. It came from Montana. Two brothers were engaged in mining ont there. One of them saved money unknown to the other, and deposited it in an old stove for safe keeping. Later on his broth er brought the stove into their cabin and started a fire in it. This was not discovered by the owner of the money until it was almost too late. The second package contained pieces of several $100 bills. They were acci dentally dropped into some hay. A calf was eating it. The calf was kill ed and the money extracted. Both packages will be made good, as enough remains of the money to de note its denomination and the name of the bank issuing it. Henry M. Stanley has written to the British Association for the Ad vancement of Science, urging that Great Britain proclaim a protectorate ver the Congo district in Africa. A recent letter from Lisbon is to the effect that the English Commiesioaer has been charged with the duty con tained in Stanley's suggestion. It may enable us to present the matter in a plainer light, to give a short synopsis of onr discussions. Let the following suffice for the present: Grammar is the science of language, and the art of its correct nee in spoken, written or printed form. It has to do with letters and their formation into words, and ends with the completed sentences that have to do with the ex pression of thought, feeling, fact, assertion, negation, purpose or com mand. The subject may be considered as being divided into eight parts, to-wit: orthography, orthoepy, orthogeny, etymology, syntax, prosody, punctua tion, and lexocography. The classification here adopted is not for novelty's sake, but for utility. In our last article a few suggestions were made respecting orthography, but the subject will be more thor oughly discussed under the outline as set forth above. Orthography, or spelling, has its origin in the use of alphabetic charac ters called letters. And this will be made more apparent as we further outline the subject named at the outset. Language may be classed as natural and artificial. The expression of feel ing, passion, or the imitation of these expressions is called natural language, as all mankind have somewhat of an understanding of the meaning ex pressed or intended to be expressed. This may be useful in our later in vestigations. . Inasmuch as the various languages have many things in common, the study of the general principles found in them should receive attention at the hands of our school teachers. The partitular language in which we are now interested is the English language of to-day. How to speak it correctly, and how to give expression to it in sentences requires the mastery of grammar. The elegance and finish so much admired by all is generally acquired by a thorough study of rhe toric and literature. Rhetoric leads us out into miny pleasant fields of thought, completes our sentences and combines them Into paragraphs, chapters, essays, volumes and series of treatises . Elocution has a like office with re gard to the delivery of thought orally, that rhetoric has to do with it in its written and printed forms, allowing however that rhetoric always leads in the construction of the subject-matter but not in its vocal or gesticular reproduction. The distinctions brought to our at tention by the use of letters in the formation of words must not be lost sight of, and when we come to con sider the many proposed reforms in our orthography attention will be called to the violation of important principles involved in the changes sought. The cognate arts are writing, en graving, printing and drawing. Knack. Who wonld believe that the author of "See That My Grave is Kept Green," and "When the Leaves Begin to Turn," would ever be placed be hind the iron bars of a prison ? The fact is stated that he is serving out a term in the Michigan penitentiary. He tried to raise a postal money order, and was sent up from the Indianapo lis U. S. court. His musical publish ers communicate on business with him as he toils in the chair shop, engaged in packing. Da. A. B. McKune and Dr. E. D. Cross both citizens of Council Bluffr, and with whom some personal troub le had for some time existed, met one day last week on the streets. Some words passed between them and they came to blows, when Cross drew a revolver and shot McKune through the body. The murderer gave him self up, and claims he did the shoot ing in self defense. The New Jersey Republican State Convention held its session one day last week at Trenton and nominated Judge Jonathan Dixon for Governor. They indorsed President Arthur's administration, opposed monopolies, call for the protection of American industries, and demand an equitable system of state taxation. Mrs. Bradford, of Hyannis, Mass., who a week ago fell into a death-like trance, recovering her faculties on the following Friday, is now apparently as well as ever. The physicians pro nounce the case a sort of spiritualistic phenomena, different from anything that ever before came within their experience. At midnight in Detroit one night last week, C. Ellis, a young drug clerk, was called up by an unknown man, and whenEUis came to the door half dressed, the man pnt a bullet through his head. Ellis died instant ly. The affair Ib shrouded in mystery. A recent correspondent from Lon don says 'Tho Austro-German alli ance is directed against Russia and France. In the event of war between Germany and France, Austria is to maintain an armed nutrality. In the event of war between Austria and Russia, Germany is to do likewise. A hail storm one day last week swept over the valley of the Ohio, from Carrolton to tho vicinity of Lawrenceburg, covering the ground with from two to four inches of hail ruining crops standing in the fields. Nothing similar to this storm was ever before experienced in that region. Rxv. G. W. Seam., of New York, in a communication to Howard ob servatory has called the attention to the fact that Brooks' comet is identi cal with the long expected comet of 1818. Computations at Howard con firm Searle's hypothesis. E. R. Royse, the station agent at Aurora, Neb., while engaged at some work in his office the other morning about 4 o'clock, was struck by some unknown person, rendered insensi ble, robbed of $400, a gold watch and a ring. His condition is. serious. A boy at Lake Genera, Wis., named McClelland, aged 9 years, snapped a revolver the other day which he sup posed was unloaded, at a little girl' playmate, aged 8. Tho weapon ex ploded and the child was shot dead. President Arthur went from New York to Newport last week and at the latter place was given a grand dinner by Seth Barton French. The President will assist to-day (TucEdai) at laying the corner stone or the Burnside memorial ball. At Farkaswinch, Croatia, last week the soldiery fired upon a mob, who shouted, "We won't belong to EIuu gary," and who previously had re pulsed a body of troop3. Ten of the rioters were killed, and many wounded. Two hundred and eighteen Union veterans from New England, who served under Sheridan in the Valley campaign .of '64, arrived at Harris burg, Va., one day last week, and were given a cordial reception. In the Liverpoo 1 markets last week foreign wheat ruled more steady, but heavy supplies have caused a reduc tion in the domestic product. Flour was in fair request, and corn was scarce and tending upward. CBBBsittiIemert' Proceeding. September, 18th, 1S83. Board met as per adjournment, nil present.
