WADE HAMPTON'S "speech on the Kellogg casa has"-created wide spread constcrnationMn the Bourbon cainp. It is regarded as completely settling the Kellogg case aa , against Ben Hill and the majority of he committee. THE Grant boomers travel almost entirely on their cheek. They 'claim everything solid' for Grant , from New- York to Nebraska. Their last claim is six votes front Michigan , when it is a known fact that the Michigan delega tion is solid for Blaine. THE Washbnrne boom appears to bo a good deal more spontaneous than the Grant boom. Washburno per emptorily declines to bo a candidate , but hit friends keep up the fight for him in spite of his persistent refusal to ran. Br the death of Judge Sanford E.

The republican state convention which is io meet at Columbus next Wednesday for the purpose of electing 'six delegates to represent Nebraska in the national republican convention , will be the largest repreeentative body thst has ever assembled in Nebraska. It is now a settled fact that this body will oppose the ronomination of Gen eral Grant and endorse James G. Blaine as the choice of Nebraska re publicans for the Presidency. Out of the three hundradand seventy-throe delegates apportioned among tha vari ous counties less than one-third are in favor of the ex-president over hundred oFihwe delegates are outspoken Blaine men. Although the sir votes which Nebraska will cait in the national convention may not nom inate the next republican president , thete.tix votes will doubtlets be an im portant factor in the eelection of the standard bearer of our pary in the impending campaign. The issue in Nebraska was squarely made as be tween the friends of Gen. Grant and the friends of Mr. Blaine.The sentimeut a ? esproieed through primaries and convention ! is emphatically in favor of Blaine , and the state convention wil' doubtleis select a delegation that rep recents the sentiment of the republi can masses. * THE latott advices fromC Hforn a indicate that the settlers in Fresno and Tulare counties are determined to hold tbeir lands against the unjust ag gressions of the Sonthnrn Pacific. There has already been a terrible trag edy enacted , ceveral men having re sisted the officers of the corporation , who attempted to take up the lands which they have improved. The set tlers are trilling and ready to make a compromise , provided any chow of fairneis is manifested , but otherwise they trill fight if necessary. The his tory of the case shows how lightly a monopoly holds the rights of any one in conflict with their "rights , " even though they are usurped and main tained contrary to law. The Southern Pacific railroad comtl pany in 1866 received a grant from congress of 12,800 acres of land for every mi'o of road built by it from the Bay of San Francisco along a certain route southward to the town of San Diego and then eastward to Colorado. The grant was made on condition that the road should take the course indiJ" cated , but that condition was never fulfilled. Instead , a section of track was laid from the Bay of San Francis co to Tres Pines and a branch of the I Central Pacific to Goshen , from where southward what is called the Southern Pacific has been extended , bnt over a line widely different from that origi- nally marked out. Through haUy | legislation the corporation was granted permission to change its course , but it is thought that this cannot stand the test of legal action. Tharo is to day a gap of something like a hundred miles i between Tres Pinoi and Goshen , over which no track has pet been laid For a long period there was no track laid from Goshen westward through the lands about which trouble has now I arisen in Tulare and Frmnn counties , and there was no apparent intention of building any. Later , however , af ter these lands had been enhanced in value by the hbor and outlay of tb settlers from § 2.50 an acre to $20 , $301y and § 10 , the railroad saw , fit to extend a branch just far enoughto pass through ibem , and to lay an appar ently legal foundation for a claim o ownership over them. At the end o forty miles the new branch stopped and has continued to stop until the pressnt moment. Hundreds of eet-1 tiers made their homes on tracts o : land now claimed by the railway com pany , expecting that they would be able to purchase the land at the pric ( § 2.50 per acre ) , at which it was val ued when they took up the land , They have been improving it for a number bor of years , rendering it fertil by establishing a net-work of irrigat ing ditches , bringing water from the Sierras. All this they have done at an estimated cost cf about four bun- dred thousand dollars. It is , in short , a gigautic land steal , which these sharks propose to carry out by force or else under cover of legislation parformed by their bought-up men. THE request of Postmaster James , of New York , that his name be no mentioned in connection with the postmaster generalship , to be mad' ' vacant by the retirement of Judge Key , is to be regretted. His appoint ment would have been a grand thing for civil tervice reform , for the official who has been so successful in th management of one office , and thaf I the most important in the country , would have wisely administered th duties'of an office having charge of tne affairs of several thousand offices. As 1. we have before mentioned , Genera ! James' promotion to the vacancy in. the cabinet would be New Yorks loss against the gain of the whole country. But so strong a pressure has been brought to bear upon him that he will retain his position , partly on account his natural aversion to leave those who have contributed so much to his i C success. I al alm THE Utes have taken the war path and the government will now have to take active mouures to put down these | tb a rebels.

Jennie June tells of a party of four young ladies who last year undertook a trip alone , visiting several countries of Europe , and whose enjoyment was so great at moderate expense that sev eral other parties will go abroad th's year. It is all right for ladies to go skylarking around alone , but some day they e.t ] will see a monsCefr'snake nearly a foot long , or an awful'grasshopper will settle on one of their necks , and then their enjoyment will not be eo great , and they will wish they had taken a man along to kill such beasts.

When the bride's turn came to make the mar riage response she added to the ayllab'e "yes" the following words in a quiet tone : "I declare I give up nothing his that can at all be valued in compari ] to the happiness awaiting me , and Iconsider my lota most enviable one.

Bow-and arrow combs ia silver and pearl or gold and crystals are worn. Gathered rnffles , made very narrow and double of the silk , are on Paris dresses. Pleated skirts forming double kilts are very fashionable for thin woo" dresses. Somebody earned $1000 by em broidering the blue silk panels for New York drawing-room.

Public educaticn in Arkansas is be coming a matter of intense interest to the people , who a few yeora ago cared very little for it. In eome towns where the school revenues are not sufficient to support the schools for the Usual time , the citizens have subscribed ad ditional eums for the purpose.
