Tun sympathetic letter of the Russian Emperor to Don Carlos is decidedly significant in view of the recent action of Germany in behalf of the Spanish .Republic. It looks very much as if the Russian Bear wanted to provoke * the Prussian Eagle Into a sanguinary encounter. THE Herald demands a straight ansvjsr to tbo question : How much did Judge Crounse draw frcm the national treasury , and for what period of service ? The UEE will promptly answer tbar ho has drawn all that ho was entitled to as a member - ber of the Forty-third Congress , from the 4th day of March , 1873 , to the time he last drew his pay. 3s that satisfactory ? Rev J. B. Maxfleld assured the editor of this paper at Lincolh that the Prohibitionists would cast five thousand votes at the coming elec tion for the Prohibition , ticket. Gerald. jtev. J. B. Maxfield assured Gen eral Cunningham and other Republicans previously before the Republican licans just publican Convention that he in tended to stump the State for the republican party , if uommaated by them for the Governorship. The Republicans happened , as it were , him and the reverend not to nominate , erend office-hunter imagines that into distrac- the whole State will go disappointment. tlpn over Ws THE SITUATION IK LOITISIAXA. Tn ; determination of Presideht Grant , to adhere to the declaration enunciated through his proclama tion to the people of Louisiana , will be applauded by all law.abiding citizens. As president of the United States it is his sworn duty to sup press all armed combinations that have for their object the forceable overthrow of any State Govern ment. Some three months ago ho did the same thing when Brooks , of Arkansas , had seized the state house and assumed to exercise the func tions of Governor. In that instance Brooks was sustained by a decision of the State Supreme Court , but still all Conservatives applauded the President's course. Now , when a pseudo Lieutenant Governor , without the support of judicial or legislative authority , at tempts to overthrow the State Gov ernment of Louisiana by an armed gangof rebels , a greathowl is raised among the sympathizers of the White League against the usurpa tion of the National Chief Execu tive. tive.Without Without attempting to palliate or deny the probably well founded charges of corruption against Kel logg , and his administration , we claim that it is no part of a Presi dent's official duty to decide who has been elected Governor in any State. It his simply his duty to maintain order , and leave this ques tion for the decison of competent authorities. If the bloody precedent set by an odventurous claimant to a State of fice was countenanced er sustained by the National Government the whole country would soon become a mere mobocracy , subject to the die- tates of office hunters , backed by organized mobs. If the great mass of the people of this couutsy could be heard , they would doubtless express deep sympathy for the tax-ridJc-n , ill- governed people of Louisiana. At the same time thpy will une quivocally condemn the resort to violence and bloodshed on the part of any class to redress political grievances. There is only one way of dealing with rebels and rioters , and that is to compel them to un conditional submission to the laws of the land and the properly consti tuted authorities. Gen. Webster our nominee for At torney General , is the present in cumbent of that otlice. Thrown overboard by the RosewaterHawes , Kcnuard & Co. ring , because he would not withdraw certain suits against certain parties , and would not agree not to prosecute a certain man for tbo next two years. Wo defy the Rosewater & Co. ring to contradict this assertion over the signature of ( Jen. Webster. They knew he was "probing the ulcer , " and they dld't want "the patient on the table , " ( read Web ster's noble letter ) while sucha man held the probe. Temperance Newt. This is the first intimation we have that Rosewater hat ? ever Dcon associated in any combination with Kennard and Company. If our fanatical contemporary could be induced to tell the truth it would be forced to confess that'Rosewater was the very man who , when m the legislature , introduced the resolu tions that resulted in the impeach ment of Butler and the breaking up of the original Keunard ring. Furthermore it is known that Rosewater - water has at all times advocated and encouraged the prosecution of public thieves and plunderers. The absurd charges of the pro hibition organ will appear even more preposterous when we state that Rosewater was not pre sent when the Attorney General was nominated. Furthermore , his relations with General Webster have always been of a friendly char acter , and we believe that officer , who by the way , has positively de clined to be the prohibition candi date , will cheerfully contradict the unfounded allegations made by the News. TIIE United States troops cheered the troops of Gov. Penn , as vhey triumphed over Kellojjsr's brigands , and even the negroes refused to fire on the best friends thev have in the South. What do the echoes of what Senator Doolittle called "or ganized liell" in Omaha think of theni'-lves , anyhow ? //eraId. They think that t'e Xcw Orleans agent of the Associated Press has lied about this matter , just as this rebel sympathizer lias been in the habit of doing all along. The idea that the Louisiana negroes with the hor- ron of Cotichatta and Grant Parish fresh in their minds , consider the blood-thirsty white leaguers their best friend , is simply preposterous. A MEMBER of the Democratic State Committee of Missouri made the following incendiary declaVa- tion to a public assembly at SL Lou is Tuesday night : "Embody this resolution now , that if it is necessary for the tri umph of State supremacy of Louisi ana , every man in this crowd swears , as lam illing to swear , to protect the people ol Louisiana , and uphold them in this struggle which they will maintain apainst the authorities of the Uni'ed States. Js not this a bold declaration in favor of a supplementary rebellion ? Will it not strike every candid and Hw-abiding citizen that the time has not yet come when the people of the United States can safely per mit the return of Democracy into political power ? THE death of Judge B. R. Curtiss , the eminent Massachusetts jurist , is announced. The fame of Judge Curtiss as a man of great legal and literary attainments had gained for him a national repu tation. His name was frequently mentioned in connection with the Chief Justiceship before the appoint ment of Judge Waite His loss will bo deeply regretted in legal and lit erary circles. LINCOLN. x Retrospective Political Review Relief Projects "Wedding in High Life , &c. ( Correspondence of the BEE. ) LINCOLN , Sept. 17. EDITOK BEE : We have had a Democratic Con vention , a meeting of the citizens in behalf ef the sufferers by the grass hopper plague , and a high-toned wedding since my last letter. I shall treat of them in their order. OF POLITICAL AFFAIRS. It may be rather late to write on Conventions , but I have seen no re port that did anything near like justice to the Democratic Conven tion. Of the other Conventions I need not speak at length ; it will be sufficient if I say that of the Inde pendents , General ( ? ) Experience Estabrook was the shining light , and of the Prohibitionists , Elder Miller was the guiding star. Wtien it is understood that these men were the leaders , it is not very difficult to get a general idea of what the re spective Conventions were com posed. I did not visit theDemocratic Con vention but once. The fact is , there was no interest manifested in its proceedings when I entered the hall , but they were very quiet , waiting , 1 believe for the committee and resolutions. Seated in the rear of the hall were Tom. Keunard , Stout , tapt. Phillips , and others , congratulating themselves upon the easy victory in store for them. Gere , was around shaking hands with Democratic editors except Miller and look in whatever di rection you would , the smiling countenance of some Republican politician was to be seen. I verily believe that there were more Repub licans upon the floor than Demo crats at least if there were more Democrats , they would not own it. While thus watching the progress ofaffuirs , a man came walking leis urely down the isle. Upon seeing whomthe man in front ofme became very enthusiastic , stamped his feet , clapped his Hands sind shouted Miller ! Then the rest looked up , and upon seeing the man , joined in the shout , and for a few moments the scene would remind one of Aloulton entering Plymouth church except that ? the crowd was not quite as largo. I ventured to ask the man in front of me who the honored individual was. lie came very near getting mad. Suid ho , "my God , man , don't you know ? That's OEO. L. MILLER. " lie didn't want to speak , but they were bound that be should. So mounting the stand , he said : "Gcntlemi-n of the Convention : These radicals are chuckliug over the prospcpt of our nomjiiating a straight ticket. But let them chuckle : we'll give'cm their belly full Making a very polite bv ) , he withdrew , amid the cheers of his followers. Then came the resolu tions. They were very brief , and were adopted without a word of ob jection. So with the nominations for the principal offices ; men were nominated by acclamation , and all enthusiasm was at its lowest ebb. In numbers , enthusiasm , and politi cal sagacity it was a ridiculous fail ure. There were no inducements for anewspaper man , beyond taking one look at the Convention enough to assure thtreaders rf his journal of the utter Insignificance of the af fair. Though some of the candidates are working bard , the political waters are generally very quiet. There only three tickets in the field , for sinpe the Independents and Pro hibitionists could not pull together , each party nominated a ticket. Their county movementcorresponds with their State movement both being failures. All these parties complain of the corruption , ring rule , and evident rottenness of the Republican party. The question may reasonably be asked , why did not these factions , ' if only anxious to serve the people , unite their efforts to overthrow the dominant party ? The question presents itself without rellection , and is easily answered : The respec tive leaders have sqch an "itching palm" for office , that they can be reconciled to no ticket or partj' that does not fly their names at the head. THE HUNGRY ONES. A meeting of the citizens was held in the Academy of Music Mon day evening , to consider what steps should be taken in behalf of those made destitute by drouth and the grasshopper raid. Gov. Furnas was called to the chair , Ho stated that the object of the meeting , also that the sutlerjiiE was much greater than was generally represented , in which statement he wassccondt'd by Elder Davis and others , who had traveled more or less over the affiicted portions tions of our State. Legislative aid was suggested , Kennard " proposing the bcbemc. It was"to have those districts in need of aid issue bonds , then take the chances of the State assuming the debt. Many others favored it. Gere made a speech , and Gosper said a few words of course The meeting resulted in the appointment of a committee of nine members to canvass the mat ter , and report as to the best thing to be done in the premises. | THAT HIGH TONED WEDDING. Tue event of the season , so fash ionable people say , was the wed , ding tills morning. The parties to this allair were Mr. R. II. Oakley , party of the first part , and Miss Ada Owen , party of the second part. Mr. Oakley is a member of the firm of Jacobs Bros. & Oakley , and is , withal , a gentleman of society. Miss Owen , only daughter of Samuel P. Owen , President of the State National Bank of this city , has long been considered one of the leading ones amongst the elite of this city , both being very popular in Lincoln society. The gifts were numerous and elegant. The affair was exccdingly high toned , and from what we learn a descrip tion of the costumes of the ladies present would fill n volume , Mr. and Mrs. Oakley left to-day for the east , and will visit Boston , Saratoga , Buffalo , and all the principle eastern cities. I can not tell bow nice the parlors looked The ceremony was performed by the Hector of the Episcopal Church , and their elaborate ceremony fully pei- formcd. Ilntendedalltnetimetoat- tend the wedding ; I should , had it not been for a few simple reasons like the following : I had no vest that I thought would look well under gas light in the day time , be sides my other clothes would hardly answer for an occasion of that kind. Then the five or six hundred dollars I intended to Invest in gifts , I was prevailed upon to turn over to the starving ones of our State ; but do not regret It much , as I learn that there Is no dongei of their coming to want this winter. A list of the gifts made an- < what I intended to buy would make this letter too long , so as to what my presents would have been will ever remain a mys tery , GRIMES. PUNGENTISTIC. Old Swolkins is so parsimonious that he won't turn over on his bed at night for fear that he will wear his drawers out. When you see a lot of fresh , healthy looking sausages selling at a very low price let them alone. An iline red does the business. A Western postmaster writes to the Postmaster-General that "H 11 will be full of country postmasters before long if they do not get more pay. pay.A A Pennsylvania baby is said to have inherited the eyes and nose of his father , but the cheek of his un cle , who is an insurance agent. Indianapolis has the champion kind-hearted man. He cut down his plum tree , loaded down \yith tiuit , because be feared his neigh bor's children would get hold of the green fruit and make them sick. A Western farmer complains that a hook and ladder company has been organized in bis neighborhood. He states that the ladder is used af ter night in climbing into bis chick en house , after which the hooking is done.

" All right sent him by express last night ; also a woman with a long chin and a wart on her nose , to keep him happv LDetroit Free Press. The attachment of some ladies to their lap-dogs amounts , in some in stances , to infatuation. An ill-tem pered lap dog biting a piece out of a male visitor's leg , his mistress thus expressed her compassion : "Poor little creature ! I hope it will not make it sick ! " An amiable citizen of Burlington called to see another , who was dangerously ill. Attracted by a fes tive pair of boots in the room of the invalid , the visitor tritd them on , when , turning to the &ick man witn much sympathy , he remarked ; "Suppose the worst to happen , I'll take these boots. " Brief coloquy in Texas between a tourist and a native : "My friend , why is it everybody in the country thinks it necessary to carry one or two revolvers ! " "Well , stranger.

" President Grant has been telling a story , illustrating the reacly humor of President Lincoln. They met Alexander Stephens , who weighs about eighty pounds. He had on immense overcoat , coming down nearly to his heels. He immediate ly unbuttoned and took it offwhich was really about all there was of him. President Lincoln turned to General Grrmt , and , on referring to it when he next met him , said : "Did you ever see so big a husk for so small an ear. " U DIES. The Democratic party in a num ber of States is getting blind drunU \\jth the intoxication of repudia tion , And now they want Barnum to lun for President in 1876 , because he would make such a good "can vas. " Simon Cameron is 76 , but he is one of the few of whom the Scrip ture saith : "Few die and none re sign. " 1 he bolt in General Garfield's dis trict has vanished from publicview , and the fifteen hundred gentle men ivho were to sign a call for an opposition conevntion refuse to come to the front. Some of the people down South will find out after a while that every time a "nigger" is killed in their section new blood is infused into the veins of the attenuated Republican party of the North. Cincinnati En quirer. "How old is Governor Dix ? " is an inquiry which the Democratic press are making. He is old enough to flux any candidate whom , the Dem ocratic convention may nominate for Governor in New York this year. Waterlown limes. f Let us have a young man for President next time. There , for in stance , are Parson Brownlow aud Aleck Stephens ; not forgetting the fact that the Democracy talk lavor- ablv of the young and beautiful WHliam Allen. A general election will be held in Washington Territory on Tuesday , the 3d day of November next , to elect the following named officers : Delegate to Congress , Prosecuting Attorney for First , Second and Third districts , and members of both branches of the Legislative AE- tuinbly. A fctrangcr converting with a Maine Republican about the next SenatorBhip asked , ' 'What do you iv of the uncommitted ones ? " "They'll go for Hamlin , " was the reply "Hamlin is like one of my neighbors up the river ; he always owns nil the logs that ain't marked I" A positive epidemic of unselfish patriotism has set in among the New York office-holders. Another public servant has sent in his resig nation. "As no office was created for the sole benefit ot one person , that be may live and enjoy its emol uments forever , " says Mr. Jacob Ross , in his letter to the Mayor , "I now reluctantly but conscientiously tender to you my resignation as Dog-Catcher of the Tenth Assembly District. " The Liberal Convention in New York was a grand affair. As soon as John Cochrane commenced speak ing all the delegates jerked out their little pocket dictionaries and set to work \ \ ith a will. Occasionally one of them would glance up with a look of dispair and yell for a Web ster's Unabridged , but otherwise all was sweetness and harmony. When the matchless orator sat down he was promptly presented with a copy of "Blair's Rhetoric , " amid tumultuous applause. Brook lyn Arqus. Judge Poland was not the only politician who was violently shaken by the recent election in Vermont. As the result is examined moro carefully it is apparent that a good many other old party hacks hae been snelved.and their places filled by men who have other recom mendations than being faithful to the crack of the party whip. An .examination of the new Legisla ture reveals the fact that it is a greatimprovment ftn its predecessor. It is composed almost entirely of new men , a great many of whom are youhg , and scarcely none of whom are in any way connected with the dirtier sort of political practices. They are men who are opposed to railroad influence and Jobs of all kinds. BANKING EZRA MILLARD , 1 J. H. MILLARD , President. Cashier. NATIONAL BANK Cor. Douglas and Thirteenth Streets.
