BOBEWATEB.FnbUabar The Pope has again recovered, and bow It will be Bismarcks turn "to be sick. - The stage drivers' strike ought to albrd New-Yorkers a much:needed opportunity for healthy exercise. Ohio is just now in the midst of a heated campaign on the new con stitution question. And the cry is still they come. We mean the new newspapers, of eune. The latest additions are a third daily at Lincoln and a second daily at Kearney. We should judge that both of these towns are now amply supplied. PRACTICE WHATY0TJF1XA.CH Ministers seldom practice what often they preach, doctors do not swallow their own pills, and editors often give other people advice which they would not willingly apply to their own condition. Sam Slick might call this human nature, but the Bee prefers to pro nounce it human depravity in its refined essence. Nowhere does this hypocritical depravity exhibit more marked effects than in the selfish and penurious pu tice of certain citizens of Oma ha, who are loud-mouthed about ' aweouraging home Industry, and are always making their purchases and investments abroad. While, in some rare instances, these picayunish gentlemen may succeed in saving a few pennies, in nine cases out of ten they are simply damaging .their neighbors, by their contemptible example, without materially bene flttiftf themselves. A few illustra tions 1b point may suffice : Some of our most prominent citizens make it a regular practice to buy their railroad tickets to Chicago, Bt .Louis, and other eastern and southern points, at Spoon Lake sta tion, because they imagine a possi ble saving of twenty-five to fifty cents. Now the fact is that the rates charged by the Omaha ticket, agents, are precisely the same as those charged at Spoon Lake, plus the regular bridge transfer, rates. They sell tickets with or without these transfer coupons, and there Jom there can be no possible, advan tage in patronizing Spoon Lake. Jf this small practice of- some of our Omaha nabobs should become general, the eastern and souths em companies would soon close their Omaha offices, and. aUspense -with the Omaha agents. People who read the Omaha Herald will doubtless remember the many stirring appeals to our citizens to patronize .home industry, ,to build .up home manufactures by liberal "Inducements. And now when the Mendd te erecting a palatial struc ture adjoining the Grand Central the proprietors have carried their cheap advice into .practice by pur chasing the iron front for their - building at a Chicago foundry.- -, - Now, this transaction might have been excusable had the k Omaha. foundries been permitted to com pete with Chicago in bidding for this work. Such was, however, set the case. Neither Van Darn Bor Hall's foundry were approached, al- theagh we are assured they could readily duplicate the work at Chica- Here then, we have jour- eonsistency in a Bwwhrll. the Omaha fsondries send to Chicago, for Jab printtag, would Mirald dapahowl ef. tedignatiemcat tswterrlhle Just now-whemiite eky k jtoB ef ttle moulders ssHJBtsehietets,' yveai ive hundred doSaes 'jwecth of week weald have ailUe4iaeae re lief.

The Bee is naturally endowed .with a cheerful and hopefifidkpo sltion. It believes that tireless in 'Sufltry wiH 'accomplish more "than tireseaae pray&g. or-idie - creaking. At the same time it cannot repress :a feeling .of disappointment at the( policy: hist maugurated by President DiUWin the Union Pacific car and jnachhae. departments., . We had been repeatedly assured from official quarters that the com pany proposed to enlarge its manu- fcirtnrirjar -facilities in Omaha and "Increase Its mechanical force.- Such ' .agoJioy woaia, if carried' if, Jiave partly compensated umana ior uiu loss sustained" through the com panies failure to'complete the depot and general office buildings. ArfaUure3? realize tieir bright anticipations might have been born with equianimlty, but whemPresi dent Dillon ordered a discharge of a large' proportion .of,-the present working force la iheshops ha'Jh&a struck a blow at Omaha that will soon be felt by all classes of her citizens. Already one hundred and twenty mechanics have been thrown out of .employment, and we understand further discharges may soon follow. Assuming an average income of $2.50 per day for each mechanic there is a reduction of $300 per day, or $7,800 per month in our current money' circulation. We areinformed that this policy has been prompted, partly by a de sire for economy and retrenchment, and principally because cars can be manufactured cheaper at eastern factories than at Omaha. Now, admitting this fact, we apprehend that the superior finish and in creased durability of tho Omaha built cars over those built at eastern factories, will more than make up the difference in the original cost Even if the actual cost of Omaha built cars was not fully compensated for by the improved finish and strength, the Company could well aflbrdte encourage manufacturing at this point, with an ultimate view of building np a commercial center that would draw traffic to their line. Quite airt from these pecuniary considerations, we deem it but our duty to appeal to the Union Pacific managers in behalf of the working men so suddenly and unceremoni ously thrown out of employment. A majority of them have come to Omaha to establish a permanent home. They have invested their jnxill earnings In this locality. Andnowtheyfind themselves ina most embarrassing position. With out a definite prospect of re-employ and many of them have not the means to go elsewhere in seaich of work. Even if the prospect for re employment was good, they can not remain idle very long without aid from some quarter. P. 8. Since writing this article we learn that only forty-seven me chanics had been discharged in the U. P. shops. LINCOLN. Capital Semovai Speculations. losinan Frospecti Shooting Af- XffraW.ftc.; Correspondence ol tbeBKn. XlNCOLX, May 27, 1S74. Editor Bee: Thesurvey for the Government Tostoffice and Custom House on the south side of Market square, front ing south, was completed Monday morning, aud the excavation was commenced Tuesday morning. There were about two hundred perr sons present when the ground was broke. The building will be CoxSO feet three-story high, and probably will have a 'Mansard roof. The building will be commenced as soon as the excavation is finished, and the 'Work will be pushed forward as rapidly as possible. Since work is begun the citizens appear quite jubilant, and now feel that their chances are better for re taining the Capitol than ever before, asjt. gives Lincoln more perman ence on account of thelong expected enterprise which Is now a fixtd fact. Business is quite lively, and many strangers .are'eoming in on the sev eral railroads; some looking for lo cations' and some' exploring the West. There are many new build ings being built, and there is a rapid growth of immigration. S- M.

Wedding of Kellie Grant aad Mr. Sartoris. The Nation's Favored Daughter . Yields -to. Hymen love. . Triumphant. A Gorgeous Affair. .5pcial Correspondence of the Bke. ' &.- Washington, May 22. Your correspondent regrets that a chain of unfortunate circumstances compels him to apologise for being unable to give a succinct and de tailed account of the most interest ing.wedding.that ever took place within- the walls of the White House. In the first place, the immaculate dress suit, ordered from New York for the occasion, failed to put in an appearance in time; secondly, the odor of the "President's veto," haunted everything fco tenaciously about the White House, that it op pressed our Western nostrils; aud thirdly, Mr. Sartoris and your corres pondent, differed upon the question of the Geneva award, and standing upon our dignityywe refused to com promise American independence by accepting any favor from "Johnny Bull." On account of this series of concatirations, the Bee was de prived of its full share of sweeta that usually follow its persevering and indomitable energy. However, it is only necessary to say that without compromising it self the "Bee" obtained all the in formation desired concerning the interesting event. The wedding was intended to le strictly private, and but very few Washingtonians were invited. The larger portion of guests were from other cities ; and the members of Congress shared with the rest in the way of prohibi tion, with but a few isolated excep tions. The entire newspaper fra ternity were "tabooed," but never theless, there were at least a half dozen repoitors on hand, who hai surreptitiously managed to get hold of invitations and attended as in vited guests, in full dress, white kid gloves, ami luvunuer in-a. uu ever heard of euchering the press, and this attempt of the President at seclusiveness, resulted in utter failure. The White House was dec orated most gorgcopsjy wth flow ers, the windows at each end of the east room containing flower pots to the ceiling, the centre of the room hanging frow tho ceiling was a large and beautiful bell made en tirely of flowers, and presented by New York friends. Under the bell was a raised dais, upon which the ecrefnoi y was performed. A large space opposite the" grand entrance to the room was divided off by stringing across the room white satin ribbons, and thelnvlted guests were restricted behind these barriers. At 11 o'clock the bridal party was ushered into the east room pre ceded by the bridesmaids, who stepped to each side, and the Presi dent with his daughter on his arm marched down the centre followed by Mrs, Gjrant aiuj tb younger children. Col. Fred Grant and Mr. Sartoris then stepped upon the raised dais, and the Bev. Mr. Tiffany of the Metropolitan Method ist Church, performed the marriage ceremony, Mrs. Grant looked upon the scene with struggling emotions; and clutched the hands of her youngsons as a partial relief, to the feelings that till a loving mothers heart upon such occasions. The soon-to-be bride, unmindful of the serious importance, of the step she was tak ing, was animated aud happy. The rather with that impenentrable look and expressionless face, bent his eyes to the floor. Mr. Sartoris, with the ease and abandon of au Englsh snob, received the bride from her fathers arm, with an air of victory a sense of English prowess. Col. Fred Grant tried to look the soldier, under the conscious of im pending danger. Sartoris followed the officiating divine in a clear, au dible tongue, and betrayed no hes itation, aud matlo but one mistake. When the minister said. "Wilt thou take this woman to be thy wedded wife," Sartoris replied, "I do." Using the wrong verb in this con nection. Several young ladies, in timate friends of Nellie, were moved to tears, and the impressiveness of the ceremony, with the attendant surroundings, made the scene one unusually affecting. There is no question but that this separation and exile as it wore from home, of this cherishsd and lovely daughter, is a serious blow, and crushing event to both General and Mrs. Grant. It is said that when Sartoris first proposed tnis matter to General Grant, he would consider it favora bly only upon the condition that ho (Sartoris) should become an Ameri can citizen, and reside here in Amer ica. This Sartoris agreed to and purchased large landed interests in the West, and made preparatory ar rangements to mako America his home, but the sudden decease of his brother made it necessary for him to withdraw this condition, as his presence was absolutely required to look after the vast estate which now falls to him. Cupid, meanwhile, had driven his darts deep into the atlections or tue young gin, ana a love stronger than parental affection tore her from the arms of fond pa rents. Sartoris is a representative of the landed gentry, simply is not a lord and the bride will not re ceive the consideration from the royal family, as Mrs. Sartoris, that she did as the daughter of the Presi dent of the. United States. The groom is said to be a fine billiard player, a good boxer, a mutton chopped, side-whiskered English man, and big cypher for his other accomplishments or personal at tractions. The presents were nu merous and very!oatly, consisting of silver tea sets, knives, forks, etc., dressing cases, laces,v shawls, and numerousbther article, valued in all upwards of $60,000. No such wedding, or regal magnificence and lavish" expenditure, has ever been witnessed within the White House, The President's gifts to the daugh ter were $10,000 in cash; two full sets of lace, imported from Brussels, and purchased by the wife of the American Minister in Brussels with out regard to expense. .The entire wardrobe of the bride is elaborate, and multifarious chan ges, such as has never been equalled in this country. The Marine Band consisting of forty pieces afforded musieforthe occasion, and exotic flowers,' la profusion, filled every corner and niche' of the building used ia the ceremony. About 350 gttcstu only .were present, and the carriages to the number of 150, were ranged in a semi-circle, fronting the mansion. Atl o'clock, the Presi dent's four-In-band was driven to the entrauce, and the bride and croom were whirled to the depot, to take a special Palace car for New "York. The youngjady friends of the bride sent a shower of delicate little satin and gold slippers after the couple after they drove from the door. This was a relic of the old custom of "thiowingthe shoe" after a new rrarried couple, and sig nifying good luck. The guests then departed, the mansion was closed, and the plebian8, who haunted the entrances, ordered away. Republi canism tits in thejap of Great Brit ain. " StygAK. PUNGENTISTIC. Now set out apple-sass plants and book canvassers. The last words of our Nellie as she turned her face for a final look at har native land "c transit." If Elder Cannon were to refuse to give his name, could he be charged with carrying concealed weapons ? One of Stanley's cards was found among the private papers of Dr. Livingstone but nobodv knows who put it there. "I never get trusted for a hat," siid a spendthrift, "because I should then feel as though I were in debt over head and ears." The prominent pious women of Boston are described by Norah Perry as "given to lankiness, slink iness, and an ironed-down-in-the-back expression." Refinement as understood by the editor of the .Burlington, (Iowa) Daily: "The papers are sickening ly full of blab about Nell Grant and her'feller.' " Parker Pillsburry bless his old soul! is in Rochester, on his way to Chicago, to reform the Aldermen of that town. He might as well dig a tunnel through Bald Mountain with a teaspoon. An undertaker in Otsego county advertises : "Coffins made to order. Now's the time to get up clubs." That is about as ghastly in its humor as the undertaker's sign-board in Bellefonte, Pa. ; "Coffins made and repaired," The Pendleton (Oregon) Tribune vigorously ejaculates : "If the dirty thief who stole our clothes-line the other night will only hang himself with it, he will oblige us very much and we will publish a first-class obit uary notice of him free of charge." Laura Fair has published a card in which she says: "I shall demand an humble apology from eaoh per son who lias dared to traduce my character," and a number of West ern editors have already asserted it as their belief that Crittenden com mitted suicide. The editor of the San Bernardino Guardian fuels impelled to describe the rival editor of that town as "an editorial empiric a newspaper quack; a man without education, without courage, without honor a drifting mental imbecile, a slander ing falsifier,a rambling adventurer a creature a tiling content to live on family charity." It is said that "a good base-ball player can make 2,000 a year." And yet there are hundreds of young men In this city who, in stead of turning their attention to the art of base-ball playing, are fooling away their time in selling dry goods, clerking in banks, prac ticing law and medicine and jour nalism. A ComstocHer lavng read that if a tallow candle be placed in a Lgun and shot at a door it would go lurougn wimout sustaining any in jury, yesterday tried it. After the experiment the neighbors were un able to decide whether jt was the candjo tljat went through the door or a piece of the gun. It was a piece of the gun that the doctor dug out of the left shoulder of the ex perimenter. In Berlin there is a young lady belonging to a female orchestra who plays on a tremendous wind instru ment. It is described as something like the man pipe (the biggest) in the largest organs that are construc ted. Singularly enough, she is said to have very beautiful lips. What would be the eilect on the male who should be favored, like a man pipe, with the persuasive application of those lips. London Court Journal. A young Boston mechanic saw an overcoat in a second-hand clothing store, which he thought he would be glad to possess at a reasonable price. "How much?" he asked. "Twenty-one dollars," was the an swer. The usual haggling took place, and the mechanic started to leave the store. "How much you gif?" asked the merchant. "Three dollars." "Take it, then, I shall shust be ruin of myself. I only make two dollars on dat coat, zo help me gracious." The Salem (Oregon) Mercury is giving brief but brilliunt pen pic tures of the candidates on the oppo sition ticket. Here is a specimen : "Engle's claim to statesmanship 13 founded upon a remarkable facial contortion which has given his mouth a kind of choke-cherry or persimmon pucker, and has slewed it around to one side so that he can have it constantly under his admir ing eye. Besides, as Engle is an orator, this peculiar position of his mouth gives him an opportunity to listen to his own eloquence, as it enables hjm to talk directly into his ear." FISH POINTS. Salmon are plentiful in the Sac ramento and San Joaquin rivers. Salmon are advertised for sale at twenty-five cents apiece in Sacra mento. The waters of Coos Bay are full of herring. The Indians spear floun der at night, while the American fishermen catch herring with nets every morning. One hundred and ninety-four in land lakes of Michigan have been stocked with white nh, which are doing well. The average number in each lake is about 7000. It is passible that similar malfor mations occur in equal proportions in other fishes, but such of these as come under the cognizance of the student are so small as not to be ap preciable. Malformations are, in deed, quite common in the goldfish and corp, particularly the former and the Chiraces bearing distinctive names, and characterized, among other feature, by the possession of an extra number of tails. Dr. Knoch, of Moscow, has late ly been studying the nature of mal formations in the trout, salmon, and whitefish, and finds the most common monstrosities to consist in the possession : first, of two heads ; second, of a double vertebral col lumn and eord ; third, of malforma tions as regards divergence of the body from its axis of length ; fourth, - oi aeiecis oi xne organs oi locomo tion; fifth, of anomalies in the vegetative sphere ; sixth, of defects in the organs of sense. Fish culturists, especially, those who have to deal with the various species of the talmonida, are fre- niiAnrlv srniMr with lhi nnmpmtra - cases of malformation in the em- bryos hatched out by them; those sometimes -constituting a marked per centage of the whole number, resulting, it is supposed, from too great rapidity ,of development, or some other at present unknown agency. Jnsomejnstanoes, the per centage Is so large, as materially to affect the number of salable fish producedj-as they sooner or later succumb in the struggle for exis- 'tence. Years have passed since 20,000 shad were planted In the Mississippi at Fort Snelling. Since then the hook of the fisher has hankered for a shad, but neither shad nor shadow of a shad has told that either the original stock remain, or that their descendants are coursing through the Father of Waters. There has long been standing an offer of $25 by the St. Paul chamber of com merce to the man who shonld pro duce the first shad caught, In the river. After many nibbles at this rich bait, a Stillwater angler swaU lows it, having caught in the St. Croix river one of the fugitive 20, 000. ' The Oldest Established BANKING HOUSE IN NEBRASKA.
