" For further evidence of this \re need but read the following spe cial telegram which appeared in the Chicago Tim's yesterday : LIXCOLK , Jan. 15. The Senatorial contest ia taking a new appearanca. Caucusing is go ing on every wight , and it is uow about concluded that neither Thayer - er , Dundy , or Paddock has any chance of election. Cunuingbair is also said to be off the track , auc it is more than probable a new man will be taken up. Who this wil bo , is not yet determined for car- tain , but indiiations now point to Guy A. Barton , of Grand Island , a member of the State Senate , or to Hon. J. B. Weston , present Auditor of State. Weston is believed to have the best chance , and it is claimed that if his name is Intro duced , he can poll 30 votes on thi first ballot , and only 27 are needet for an election. Weston Is there fore hailed a < 3 the coming man though Thaycr's and Paddock's friends have not lost hope. Tun Nebraska City Press pretends to entertain doubts about the an thority of the letter of Morton to Congressman Cox , and on this as sumed hypothesis pleads its excuse for not giving It publicity. Now Mr. Newman , isn't that a little thin even for a United States Revenue Collector to palm upon the public' Haifa dozen different State journals have published that letter , over the signature of Mr. Morton. Tha gentleman has not refuted it ant we venture to say he dares not do it What further evidence , then , is wanted ? Did Messrs. .Newman & Browi seek in a similar way evidence to substantiate their base fabrications ? or did they wilfully make up a tissue of falsehoods to serve a base pur pose and when discovered and ex posed try to cover up by an owl- like silence ? It seems to us now that Messrs. Newman & Brown are using the same disgraceful course in their charges upon the Hon. Joseph Lamaster , for when men will lie so wilfully in one case they cannot be expected to do better in another when they can serve a purpose in doing it. * BROWNVILLE.

Our citizens prefer sitting around their \VARM F1EE5 , to moving out upon the streets.

There is on an average twenty-five cordo ol wood brought to this place p > r day. Dry oak , hickory and ash sells for $5 per cord , and green wood for about S-i per cord Wheat Is worth 05 cents per bushel , oats 60c , corn OOc , end potatoes $1. There is very little urain being sold except for seed purposes in truth there is verv lit tie to bo sold. I find Brownville a very PLEASANT PLACE to live. The society here is good.

I THE CAPITAL Tha Judiciary Bill Carving the First Goose -Ills-First Solil Li'tle , ' ; 'ona1o s S aim and Ch pirau ( Correspondence : f tha te.E. ) LINCOLN , Jan. 16 _ . ' 75. EniTon OMAHA BEE : After the usual routine , the Sen ate went into Committee of the Whole on Senate bill No. 1 , being the judiciary bill. Senator Barton moved the com mittee with Senator Lyons , of Burt , in the chair. The Senator from Burt a plain , modest , retiring old gentleman , politely begged to de cline the nomination , on the ground of his inexperience in such service , but the motion was put and carried. Still the Senator begged to be ex cused , but the Senate refused to .re consider , and Senator Barton en couraged the reluctant elect by the humorous remark that "presiding over a Senate is like carving a goose it lias to be learned.1' The figure was apt to the transient event , but whether It may not be after , in a prolonged application , and which of the terms "carving" or "goose'1 may denote the chief element of significance in the sim ile events will show. But the chair man's first effort with fork and Knife was done with neatness and dispatch. This very sensible and dignified father among the patrcz conncripti , showed that his apology had no foundation but his sincere modesty. The bill having been reported back and put on its passage , it'elicited the first TWO SOLID LITTLE SPEECHES of the session by Senators Spaun and Chapman. The Senator from Douglas admit ted the necessity of extending the Judiciary at the earliest date consis tent with constitutional authority. But , while conceding such necessi ty , he was impelled by a higher consideration to explain and record his opposition to the measure. There was , in his judgment , no constitu tional authoritj' for this enactment. The constitution provides that some such measure as this may bo adop ted "after the year 1875 " Waiving the question whether the legislature ia the competent tribunal to decide the meaning of constitutional law , the learned Senator went into a concise , but critical examination of the proper sense of the plain Eng lish phrase "after the year 1875. " The phase , "the year 1875" denotes apeWod of time with a definite be ginning and end. "After" shows the relation between this period and the act may bo performed ; and "after" denotes something subse quent or future to this clearly defin ed period. By what authority it is made to mean "during , " or by what rule the phase is to be considered elliptical requiring the words "the beginning of , or the first da3' of" to complete it , is not at all plain. Jf the sentence had been intended to mean after the commencement or the firot day of the year 1875 , it would have been so written aud printed. . It is said that the Supreme Court extradudically express the opinion that it is competent for the Legisla ture to construe , and that the lan guage of the constitution may war rant this measuie. That maybe ; but no COUrt WOUld onicially rroi > r - nounce it. The Senator alleged that no nec essity could exist so pressing as to warrant this dangerous trespass on unauthorized ground. And further that all excuse K precluded by the steps already taken , and soon to be completed , for adopting a constitu tion which would provide for the case. I give only the substance of this argument , and that from the merest notes. M.uch less do I give the reader any iJea of the manner and style of the speaker. The subject and occasion do not warrant more at present than the passing remark that the Hon. Senator combines in his natural gifts and his acquired arts all the elements of a true orator. SENATOR CHAPMAN , Author ot the bill and chairman of the judiciary committee , rnplied : that the language of the constitution may be equivocal , but if it is , the legislature is the party competent aud in duty bound to interpret the sense of this phrase. The interpre tation implied in this bill is consist ent with the usages of language and in harmony with the intent of this particular provision , nemely : to authorize the increase of the judic iary as soon as it was then supposed necessity required. The necessity for such increase being now very urgent It was the prerogative and duty of the legislature to pass this act in the behalf of the people , who generally demanded it , and whom rights and interest instead ot being put in jeopardy , would be protected , The senator referred to the crowd ed condition of our civil and crimi nal dockets , the excessive labors of our three judges , and the injurious delays of ollicial business. He re plied to Senator Kpauu respecting : ho relief so soon to come through a ue\y constitution , that wo are by no means sure Qf a new constitution. The document will be submitted to the people , but is as likel > to be rc- eoted as adopted , in which our judi cial affairs njusl become more and more neglected. This is the substance , but iot ; the form of the senator's speech. The honorable senator is an ear nest and wiry worker , and made as strong a doiense as th nature of the case admits. The honorable senator acquitted himself and his cause very well , considering the task of answering an argument so lexicographically simple and nouud , and so pointedly put.

General Cunningham of Platts- mouth , is a dangerous man , and would barter principle and every thing else to s-ecure the position him- j self. A man who sold himself in ] 1S71 would do the same and more in 1875. We want justice , and we desire our Republican Representa tives iu the Legislature to remember that they were elected not to yote for a Bourbon , or a 'Liberal for the United States Senate , but a genuine Republican , one iu whom theie is no guile.

" GeiritSn-ith was the first North ern man to come to the aid of Wash- ton University after General Leo be came its President. A higher education for women rinds a growing advocacy in Eng land , France and the United States. lem-ple Jlar is particularly ardent in the cause. The 20th day of December was the twenty-fifth nnnhersary of the opening of the first public school in San Francisco a school which b - gan with three scholars. Now the department has 48 schools , with 500 teachers , aud nearly 23,000 pupils. The Indiana teachers have elected Mrs. George P. Brown , of Indian apolis , President of their Associa tion. At their meeting just held , they formally resolved that the State should provide education with out regard to race. Dr. Hilgard , of Michigan Univer sity , advised the Michigan teachers at their late meetinc to instruct children in natural history chiefly by means of natural specimens. After these he held that good illus trated works and wall maps are high essentials , as contradistin guished from mere text-books , dic- tionarjes to bo learned by note and quickly forgotten. President Anderson , of the Kansas State Agricultural College shows from the list of graduates of that college from 1867 to 1874 , that not one of them has become a farmer. Ho acknowledges that unless our agricultural colleges can succeed in turning out real farmers , mechanics , etc. , they must bo conceded to have failed in the objects for which they were instituted. Lord Brougham is credited with saying that a child learned more be tween the ages of eighteen and thir ty months , in certain branches of knowledge , than in all the rest of his life. This may be an exaggera tion , but it will suffice to indicate the importance of the primary de partment under our public educa tional system in which the pro cesses ought to be quite as much for mative as instructive. The Illinois School and College Association of Natural History , or ganized to encourage the study of natural history in the schools of the state , reports that its collections consist of specimens of minerals , fossils , and animals. The minerals are mostly from Lake Superior , and the fossils and minerals from differ ent portions of the state. The ani mal ' collection numbers 1,600 speci- mo'na jeDrenentlue 202 ditforent-spe- cies. Bishop Sweoney.the Catholic pre late of St. John , N. B. , has set an example to the clergy of the diocese to resist the payment of their school tar , on the grouud that "A o Cath olic citizen can conscientiously aud willingly contribute to the support of schools in which his religion is attacked and insulted. " The con sequence was that some of the epis copal property was seized and sold at auction to satisfy the tax of $217- 10. Three other clergymen found themselves similarly situated. The ( ground of complaint would be per fectly reasonable were any disposi tion shown to introduce icligioua teaching into the schools atall. But so far as is known , theie is no prov ocation of the kind. The following are the full and au thentic statistics of the number in the faculty , and students in the sev eral departments of the Michigan University for this year : There are this year , -18 in the University Fac ulty , an increase of 5. The literary students are divided as follows ; Seniors , 105 ; juniors , 87 ; sopho mores , 84 ; freshmen , 109 ; in phar macy , 63 ; total 458. The senior class is the largest ever iu the Uni versity. The sophomores have lost 38 since last year. Many on ac * count of the suspension last spring did not return. There ore 330 in the department of Jaw , 25 more than last year. The medical students number 2CO , an increase of 52. To tal in University , 1,143 , an increase of 98 over last year. There are 06 women in the University , 52 in the literary department , 42 in the med ical nnd 2 in the law department. It was stated at the meeting of the Wisconsin -teachers that the high schools as now organized fail to meet " the present wants of the State. Most of them are high schools only in name. Otherdeclar- atior.s wore that the State suffers greatly from the poor equipments of common school * . The schools should bo Ca'tholic in spirit , and free from all sectarian bias. Re ligious instructions nhould Jj omitted , a andJj of offending the Elementary by over- the educational pro of the common school facie should be freedom from servi tude fo text-hooka.
