A TKICMPH FOB THE RIGHT.
The people of Nebraska and the
fnendsofhoneatgovernmentall over
trie Union , are to be congratulate !
upon tbe culm.nation of tbe grea
political contest that bas resulted in
tbe election of Alvin Baundera to
tbe United States Senate. Mo even
in the history of this common
wealth bas been fraught with more
momentuous consequence.
The election of Alvin Baunders is
not , as it may seem , a mere faction
al or personal victory itjs the tri
umph of justice over lawlessness , o
truth over falsehood , and of hon
esty over corruption. It ia a lesson -
son to the young , and aspiring
men of this State , teaching them
that the power of mono ;
cannot alwaya prevail howeve
patent it may seem for a time. 1
demonstrates tbatj which begiua
with wrong is sure to end in wrong
that Truth crashed to earth wil
rise again. For six long rears a
man who secured bis eeat againe
the popular wish of . .he people
bas used every means in hi *
power to obliterate all irac
es of bis corrupt acquisition and
like the guilty culprit who covered
bis firat crime by tbe commission n
another , so the occupant of tbe
senatorial position soon to be
filled by Alvin Saunders found
1 'm lf 5n the attitude of being
c impelled to commit subsequent acts
repugnant to bis sense of justice and
antagonistic to tbe interests of tbe
commonwealth , merely to silence
those wbobad been his accomplices
in the unlawful step which gave
him power.
Instead of being free tortpieseni
a State as one ot its directors iu the
national affairs of our government ,
he was tbe slave of a mcrcllePH and
unprincipled lot of onice-eeterH.
Tbe people of Nebraska can there
fore congratulate themselves upon
tbe new change which affaire have
taken.
Senator Saunders owes his posi
tion to no monled power , uor
bas he obligated himself
by any pledges to make
any recommendations for office.
Se will be free to carry out tbe wish
es and subserve the interests of bio
constituency , untrammelled by cor
rupt bargains , and undisturbed by
the fears of exposures , on this ,
the successor of the present incum
bent , as well as the citizens of
' tha Btata , are to be con
gratulated. His secession to th
high office of Senator will mark a
new era in the political affairs of
Nebraska.
DB. MILLER has at length dis
covered that he is neither the em
bodiment of the Democratic party
nor the tali end of the Republicans.
HON. JOHN C. COWIN , .Lorenzo
Crounse , Judge Briggs. Gen. Jttau-
dereon , Mr. Nance , Van Wick ,
Judge Lake , and a host of others
whose names want of space pre
vents us from enumerating at pres
ent , deserve the thanks of the peo-
pie of this State for the fight they
made against corruption and dis
honesty in the interest of popular
reform during tbe senatorial con
test , but for them the contest of
six years against a corrupt dynasty
would have been fought in vain.
IN the excitement unending tbe
close of the most remarkable polit
ical contest Nebraska has experi
enced since she baa become a State ,
it ia difficult to give proper credit tj
ail parties deserving of it , especially
where there are so many who have
done good ana noble work in the
cause of honesty and justice. While
the victory achieved by the election
of Alvin Saunders to the Senate be
longs to the Republicans , there are
Democrats who are deserving ot
more than ordinary honors for their
unsweiving devotion to the right in
the face of extraordinary tempta
tion. Of the Douglas county dele
gation we are proud to point to tbe
records of Messrs. Cbas. H. Brown ,
Geo. W. Ambrose , James Creigh-
ton , J. 8. Gibson and A. N. Fergu-
on. We shall take occasion to

ALVIN SAUNDERS :
Hlslorical Sketch of Nebraska's Sext
United StateslSenntoi.
AlvinHaunderewhoha > 5 just been
elected to represent Nebraska in the
United States Senate , For pir'yeare ,
ending March 4th , 1883 , was born
In Fleming County , Kentucky , on
the 12th < lRy of July , 1&1V.
Gunnel 1 Sauuders , bis father , a
native of London county , Virginia ,
was a descendent of a British fam
ily. He removed to Kentucky
while quite younjr , locating on a
farm ten mllea frotllh ot Flemings-
burg. His mother , Mary Saundera
neeMahzy , was of Virginia birth
and of French origin.
GunneJl Baunders wan ft farmer
by occupation , and ho trained his
boye , five In tiumber , to some busi
ness pursuit. When Alvin wasabout
twelve years of age , the entire fam
ily moved from Ketucky , and lo
cated near Springfield , Illinois.
But little attention was then
given to education in Kentucky ,
tnd especially with those living out
side of the cities and large tortlig ,
and with families of moderate
means , and tne subject of this
sketch , so long as he remained in
that region , shared the fate com
mon to all of his class ; nor was
bis condition much improved by
removal to anoth'er State for
the section m Illinois where his
father located was then very sparse
ly rattled , and consequently a very
pwr opportunity was afforded for
ereu & common school education.
A school was taught two miles
distant from where his father lived ,
for only three months in each year ,
and that too in the winter season.
The consequence was that he receiv *
ed only the first rudlmeutoOf an edu
cation , and here many bays would
have rested their studies , and pass-
ert through life without further
educational advancement. But
Alvm Saunders had a hatufdl
liking for books , and a high degree
of ambition for improvement
of tne rmml , and he diligently
profeouted Ins studies even under
the most adverse circumstances.
When the postofflce WRS estab
lished in Mount Pleasant , Mr. Baun
ders was appointed postmaster , an
office that UB held for over seven
years. In 1846 , be was elected as a
member of the constitutional cofa
vanticn under which the Bfate of
Iowa was admitted into the Union ,
lu 1854 , ho wfcs elected to the Iowa
State Senate , and took a very active
part in the politics of that day. He
was uncompromisingly opposed to
the Kansas-Nebraska bill , which
would have opened up the territo
ries to the introduction into them
of slaves. "No more slave territo
ry" was his motto. In 1858 , he Wite
re-elected as his own euccessof.
Ho was a delegate to the first re
publican state convention ever held
lu low * , &nd ever since he has been
au active member of that party ,
He was a delegate to the republican
nntional convention in 1860 , anti
took an active part iu the nomiua
tion of Abraham Lincoln. After
Mr. Lincoln's nomination , Mr.
Maunders made an active canvass
of the state of Iowa , and every
where be strongly pressed the
claims of j/mcoln and the republi
can party.
In 1881 , ml ay ) a few days after
tup inauguration , President Lin
coln appointed him to ( he office of
Governor of Nebraska Territory a
position that he held for six years ,
including the tlitlro period of the
great rebellion and until the State
was admitted into the Union. Be-
aides the very arduous duties that
grew out of the war betfrfeh the
Boulh and the north he had
the additional Work of protecting
the n'oul'ersmon in this state from
the tomahawk and sculping knife of
the border savages. The larger pro
portion of the able-bodied men of
the state were in the armyand weie
fighting southern rebels. Governor
Saunderd issued a proclamation call
ing for volunteers for frontier ser
vice against the eavaee foes. A
hearty and cheerful response was
given to this call , and as a result ,
the Indian depredations ceased.
For many years before the Union
Pacific railroad was chartered by
Congress Governor Sauncters was a
zealous advocate of a transcontinental
nental highway of the nation. In
his message to the legislature in
1871 , he alluded to the subject in the
following language : UA mere
glance at the map of the country
wDl convince every intelligent
mind that the great Plat te valley ,
which pas es through the heart and
runs nearly the entire length of Ne
braska , is to become the route for the
great central railway -which is to
connect the Atlantic with the Pa
cific states and territories. Through
Nebraska must pies , within a few
years , not only the trade and travel
between the eastern and -western
portions of our own country , but al
so most of the trade and travel bet
ween the old and uew world. "
When the bill was finally passed to
authorize the company to
build the Union Pacific railroad ,
be was made by cougress one
of the commissioners , or incorporators -
ators , to give practical form to the.
measure. Shortly after the meet
ing of the commissioners , which
took place in Chicago in 1863 , the
company was organized , and on the
2d of December , 1863 , Governor
jauuders participated iu the break-
ng of ground for this great national
work.
In the legislative assembly , Feb
ruary 10th , 1865 , the council , by a
vote of ten yeas to two nays , and
jy a unanimous vote in the house ,
endorsed the general policy of his
tdministration , and as&ed the Pres-
tleiit of the United States to reappoint -
point him for the ensuing four years.
Nebraska's admission into the
Union before she had the requisite
population was largely due to the
energetic efforts of Governor Saun
ders. In 1867 , when our first State
Legislature was called upon to
elect two United States Senators
Governor Saunders came within
one vote of being elected , and his
defeat was due to the treachery of
pretended friends. In the memora-
> Ie Senatorial contest of 1871 , Gov.
emor Baundera was the chief com
petitor of Senator John M. Thayer ,
when he was again defeated by the
betrayal of base politicians , who
intended to advocate his claims.
So man has. contributed more to
ward building up the material in
terests of Nebraeka , and particular
ly of Omaha , than Alvin Baunders.
Eie has been largely instrumental
n the building of railroads and tel-
jreplj , the development of our ag-
rbullural resources , and the estab
lishment nf educational institutions.

1'HE BENGAL STORM WAVE.
Minntes Made by tne Ltenlenaat
GovernorSlr Riclinrd Temple.
From the Gaiettc of India.
'In an area of come 3,000 square
miles , out of l.OO'-V'OO persons sud
denly thrown into more or less of
danger , 216,000 must have perished.
This , of course , is only an esti
mate ; the exact number dalinot be
known yet awhile , perhaps be
haver Will be known. We found
In Borne villages 30 per cent , of the
inhabitants lost , in others 60 per
cent. , in some even 70 flefSent.
There was a severe cyclone in the
Bay of Mental on the night of the ,
Slat of October. But is was not the
wind which proved so destructive ,
though that was bad enough ; it
was the storm .WHYS- , sweeping
along fc > ft height of from ten to
twGniy feet , according to different
localities ; in some place ? , where it
met ; with any resistance , it gloiihh
ed even higher than thatt Ih the
evening tbtt weather was a little
windy and hazy , and had been
somewhat hot ; the people , a mil
lion or thereabouts of souls , retired
to rest , apprehending nothing. But
before 11 o'dottS the wind suddenly
frenheued , and about midnight there
arose a cry of "The water is on us , "
and a great wave burst over the
country several feet high * ; it was
followed by aabther wave , and
again by a third , all three rushing
rapidly southward , the air and wind
being chilly cold.
The people were thus caught1 up
before they had , time even to climb
on to their roofs , and were lifted to
the surface of the water , together
with the beams and thatches of their
cottages. When the storm burst
there was an abundant rice crop"
ripening for the harvest tb'e well-
known 'deltaW Hbo Crop , which is
WircU beyond the needs of local
consumption , and affords quantities
( measured by thousands of tons an
nually ) for exportation to distant
districts A parjt Is lost , that in
which the ptant bad not advanced

BEEcUEit'.S PERPLEXITIES.
An Aivlnl Thing : to be n atliilater of
ClirUt. and Tel , Not a ChrUf Ian.
Nsw York Sun ,
Mr. JBeecher'e ' tfsfmoii yesterdav
uipruing had an indirect hut uu-
irtiatskeable reference to the Man
hattan Congregational Association ,
recently formed and numbering
among its members ninny of tub
moat distinguished Ottrlsregational
ministers of Aew York and Brook-
lydi Bo divine and precious , he
said , was the name of Christ ,
that the preaching of the Gospel ,
even by bad men for bad purposes ,
was better than no preaching of
Him at alh Ho epsike of the indt-
peudeucc of uhurcues. He had no
dojire to take a long needle and a
subtle thread and sew other church
es to his skirts. To all of them , to
the Romanists , the Presbyterians
the Episcopalian be Paid "go on
and do good In your own way.
Only see to it that the Christ you
preach is a Christ with a heart , and
not merely a theologian. "
But how scarifying it was to any
denomination to see a minister ar
raigned for letting women preaoh
in bis pulpit ! ' How pitiful to see
men with imperious consciences
especially when they did not know
the difference between conscience
and coinUHliveneasl It was an aw
ful thing to be a minister of Christ
and yet not to be a Christian ; to
preach the Master's gospel for thir
ty , forty , fifty years , and get no par
ticle of the fragrance that impreg-
nattd His garments.
"Don't you think , " he said , "that
the hounds of love are better to run
down heresy than the hounds of
conscience ? How painful it is to
see ministers of Christ growing Jeal
ous in their old age ; and how sweet
to watch them becoming mellow as
they grow older. "
"It is not any remissness of doc
trine that weighs with me It is
my inability represent Christ iu my
daily life. I am an ambassador of
Cuiist , representing Him here as he
represents His Father. But who ,
with his voice , can represent the
voice of the sea ? Who , with voice
and hand , can represent the sweep
ing storms of summer ? If a butter
fly should wing its way into my
room and say , 'I am sent by the
king of insects to represent you1 !
how I should smile that an insect
should be chosen to act as my rep
resentative. Yet my errand is more
profound , more awful , called upon ,
with all my frailties , to represent
my Lord and Master. "
i Mother's Pitiable Delirium.
The evil effect of ill advised
preaching upon weak minds is
illustrated by the following account
in tbe New York Sun of tbe llth :
Early on Saturday morning a
milkman discovered a woman al
most nude iu the Flatbu h road.
She was loudly bemoaning the death
of her two children , and was call
ing on Heaven not to send them to
hell. Having pacified her , he as
certained that she lived at 1,175
Myrtle avenue. Her husband , Mr
Henry Bobenhausen , was overjoyed
on her return home , and strove
to drive from her mind the terrible
hallucination which had taken pos
session of it. A few days after tbe
burial of her little ones , she became
mprebsed with the belief that aser-
moj which the Rev. J. Eaber de
livered , on "Eternal Punishment , "
had reference to her children. The
thought crazed her. Stealing from
the house , she went to the ceme
tery , sought out her children's
graves , and attempted to exhume
their bodies. In her delirium she
called for her babes , saying that if
she could only get them out of their
graves , they would not sink down
into hell. Yesterday she was sent
to an asylum.
Food for the Poor lu Baltimore.
B Itimore Snn.
The distribution of food to the
poor from the police stations has
become a feature of the winter
charities of Baltimore. Since Dec.
10 about 50,000 persons have been
relieved at the six police stations.
Most are supplied with tickets , fur
nished by tbe policemen on the dif
ferent beats. The tickets state the
number in each family , and the
amounts are given in proportion.
"Mr. Bliukenberry , ' ' said young
Mr. JLiOveknot with great earnest
ness "they say that you have some
thing that will prevent a fellow's hair
from falling out. Now I'm losing
uiy hair. What shall 1 do to keep
from getting bald ? " "Young fel
ler- said Mr. Blinkenberry , lower
ing his voice to a sympathetic
whisper , "young feller , stay single. "
Then the good man sighed , and
prevailed upon the barkeeper to
"set 'em up again. " "

THE HESSIAN ASD HIS BRIDE.
tbe Law Prohibiting
the Intermarriage of Whites and
Black * .
Raleigh News.
The other morning a man sent to
the office of the. Register of Deeds
to get a marriage license. The Dep
uty Register was surprised to hear
in response that the man was white
and the woman colored. Of course
the license was refused.
In the afternoon we were in the
register's office , and the man who
had wanted the license entered.
He had come to inquire why it was
refused him , and , though he had it
fully explained that the intermar
riage of races wai illegal , he left
evidently not at all latlsfled.
There was present In the office a
gentleman , to whoso mind the cir
cumstances recalled an incident of
bygone times. He remembers to
have heard a Hessian who came in -
to Halifax county , in this State , just
at the nd of the Revolutionary war ,
and became much infatuated with
anegress living in the neighbor
hood. There was a legal prohibi
tion , as now , of the intermarriage
of tbe races , but a clause of the law
provided that if a white man desir
ing to marry a negro woman , or
vice versa , would appear before a
justice and make oath that he or she
had negro blood In his or her veins ,
the marriage might be solemnized.
The Hessian was aware of this law ,
and so , in order to dodge Its intent ,
as well as to shield himself from in
dictment for perjury , be drew about
a pint of blood from the arm of the
n caress , drank it , and then went
forthwith and made the necessary
oath before a magistrate. The mar
riage was thereupon solemnized ,
and the descendants of tbe couple
are still living in Halifax.
Hard limes for NCTT York Churches.
From the Hartford Times.
New York pastors , with very few
exceptions , complain of the diffi
culty of getting enough money to
pay the current expenses of their
churches , and many are obliged to
"shin around , " as they say in the
street , to obtain cash ( often by loan )
to square up on settling day. A
good deal of the money loaned on
on church buildings by uavinps
banks and insurancce companies is ,
I think , rather unsafely placed. I
know one church , with a congrega
tion not over wealthy , which car
ries mortgages to the amount of
S90.0CO. The property would hardlv
bring that amount if it were offered
by auction. Another church , still
less wealthy , is mortgaged for
$70,000.
One Potato Bj Mail.
Worceiter Spy.
A friend of ours received a day or
two ago through tbe postofflce , from
Olympia , Washington Territory , a
roundish package , which contained
a large potato It had been cut in
two and the inside scooped out , and
in tbe cavity were found Sewers
and leaves , which , as he learned by
a note previously received , had
been picked up in a gaiden in the
open air on the 26th day of Decem
ber. The flowers , pansies , gerani
ums , and others , were fresh and
bright , although their journey across
the continent had occupied fifteen
days.

PURE BLOOD
Is the life , bnt bad blood is the abomina
tion. From it and derangement of the kid
neys and urinary organs , come most of the
pains and aches and all diseases of the skin.
Dr. Green's King Cure is a remedy that Is
intended to strike at the root of this trouble.
It acts as a diuretic evacuant in cases of
DropsGout. . Gravel , and all diseases of
the Kidneys , while it acts on the stomach
as a tonic. It moderately accelerates the
circulation , gently encourages the action oi
the bowels and powerfully augments the
urinary secretion purifies and cleanses the
blood , thus removing the cause of boils ,
carbuncles , scrofula and all eruptive and
cutaneous diseases ; reduces inflammatory ,
rheumatic and neuralgic pains and aches ,

fibrous tisues and joints , softens and carries
off gravel and other calculus deposits of the
urinary organs ; cures Diabetes , Bright'i
Kidney Disease , Lncorrhca. ( Female weak
ness ) . Scrofula and all diseases arising from
disorder of the uriny organs and impure
ttato of the blood , and especially adapted to
female complaints. It is a safe and pleas
ant alterative , and cures without depleting
the 8tjngth of the organs or the tone of the
cenerftl system. In other countries its rep
utation was so high that it gained the title
of "King's Cure ? ' A dally use of It will in
most cases prevent , and in all cases mitigate
the attack of the diseases for which it is re
commended. It is beneficial for washing

stop the cough as most preparations do , by
their anodyne and astringent effects , retain
ing the mucous and offending matter in the
blood and causing permanent disease of the
Lungs , but it cures by loosening the cough
and assisting the lungs and throat to throw
off the offending matter , which causes the
cough , thus scientifically making the cure
perfect. It at once alleviates the raast distressing -
tressing cold on the lungs , soothes and allays
irritation , and breaks up Whooping Cough.
