May 26, 1874. J
KeaTney U located at the junction
of the B. & M. and Union Pacific
railroads, one anil one-half miles
from the Platte and 100 miles from
Omaha via B. & M. R. R. ' The
work of extending the St. Joe and
Denver railroad (which now runs
over the B. & 3L track from Halt
ing) will begin at an early day.
About the middle of 1872, Kear
ney Junction consisted of one small
store, which was opened for the
purpose of supplying the few farm
ers and immigrant trains with pro
visions; drj goods, liquors, fete.
Since then settlers have located so
rapidly that now there are 200
buildings and a population of 700
souls. Five or six grocery and dry
goods stores, two banking house,
lumber, hardware, and in fact every
class of business is represented and
apparently doing well. Able preach
ers preside over intelligent congre
gations, of the Methodist, Congre
gational and Presbyterian persua
sions. The toil is the blaek loam, for
which the Platte Valley is justly
celebrated, is well adapted to the
cultivation of the various grains,
while fruit culture here, as in other
portions of the State, is destined to
become one of the most important
industries,
A luxurious growth, in the natu
ral state of the niastnutrjtjous wild
gnisMJ3, covers the whole expanseof
prairie, providing excellent grazing
lands for the great numbers of cattle
that are herded in this and adjoining
comities in herds of a few hundred
head to 5,000 and upwards.
In two or three years, at most,the
county seat will undoubtedly be
ujoved here, as Kearney is the geo
graphical centre of the county, as
well as tne most populous ami im
portant city.
The city government have set
aside forty acres of 'land to be devo
ted to Capital purposes, as it propo
hea to have Kearney the Capital of
Nebraska at no far distant dayj pro
yjdipg, nothing happens, of course.

aging editor of the Washington
Chronicle, died at hs residence In
this city yesterday.
The question of time fixed upon
for a change in thp secretaryship of
tho treasury seems to he very much
muddled. There are members of
Congress who claim to have direct
assurances from the President that
a change will take place this week,
while on the other hand the friends
of Mr. Richardson assert that he
will not resign until after Congress
adjourns in June, and that he fully
made up his mind to this at a very
late hour last night.
It was rumored about this city
to-day, that E. B. Washburn, had
arrived in New York from Paris,
and hail, come on purpose to accept
the treasury portfolio. His arrival
at New York was not known at the
executive mansion,
A warm personal friend of Secre
tary Delano, states this morning,
that while ifr, Delano, somotime
since, would have been glad to ex-
cnange liLs position at iue neau oi
the interior department, for the
secretaryship of the treasury, but
that now be was no;
an aspirant fbF that position,
though ?f it was offered him bj' tho
President, he would f that he
could net consistently, with hisduty
to the administration, decline it.
The President stated last night that
Mr. Richardson's successor would
certainly be a wetteni man. Mem
bers of Congress who have con
versed with him dh the subject, are
unanimous in tho statement that
Gen, Bristow, of Ky., has been
tendered tho position, and there is
no doubt but he will accept It. The
return order was demanded imme
diately after the reading of the Jour
nal. The bill in relation to the
Sanborn contracts came up, on
whloh the previous question had
been ordered. Mr Foster, who was
entitled to the floor for the closing
hour, yielded to Mr Nebleck (Ind),
who reviewed the circumstances at
tending the passage of the act of
"1S72, and representations made in
relation there, especially bis connec
tion therewith as a member of the
caafere&ce committee.
