The object c the reform contemplated is to BE cura the largest possible gathering o qualified voters in their saveral towns wards or districts and the freest exer cise of their choice in the eelecUon-o candidates for local offices , and o delegates to conventions which are ti nominate candidates for the bight offices. Colorado is also framing bill to prevent the packing of part caucuses by bummers and dead-beat : and to prevent the roters from the ai tacki of etrikera and corrupt ringsten If Nebraska is wise the present legii lature will give their attention to thi Important aatter. A number of leading newspapers are presenting to their readers the ob servations of a corps of trained cor respondents , trho arc travelling throughout the southern states with a view of investigating the present con dition and future prosperity of the people. To some extent the letters are colored by the political bias of the journals represented. Col. McClure , of the Philadelphia Times , believes the millenlal era has set in , and that the lion and the lamb are about to lie down In peace and prospects togeth er. Ho is forced , ho we rer , to admit that since the war a sprit of llstlesiness and a lack of energy seem to have taken possession of the southern planters from which they are beginning to recover. The correspondent of the Cleveland Leader argues that the condition ol the south is due to a lack of experience and still greater lack of energy or the part of the owners of the soil When at the close of his little politica venture , which ended so unhappily fo ; him in 1805 , the planter saw himsel surrounded by the ruina of his pos sessions , he made no attempt to re trlevo his broken fortunes , o to raise his humiliated slat from her disgrace , but in stead , sat him down amen , the fragments of his household good to brood over his failure. There h slta to-day , while whatever his stat may have gained since her reconstruc tion , is duo to northern capital am northern enterprise. Another caus which , In conjunction with thisapath and lack of energy , has greatly r < tardod the progress of the south , i politics. Ever since the war th south Las had a vague idea that semi how the success of the democrat ] pTfty was to bring her a realization c the hopes which had boon swept awa by the crushing out of the souther confederacy. Hence , instead of goic sturdily to work to build up the fo ; tunes broken by their own folliei southern loaders have devoted then solves to politics , and in place ofat vising their'frionds and followers i plant and sow , have exhorted them t nothing but voting the democrat ! ticket. The ChicagoJFimes has also bee publiohiog n/eorle3 of ably writte letters from4ho Gulf states , Trhlch n present the' south as inst beginnit to discover her'capabilities and as b coming cognizant of the fact that hi regeneration-must come from her on hands without' placing dependence o northern Brains , northern capitalis and the northern democracy. 1 The Louisville Courier Joiinn frankly acknowledges that the tin for the prosperity of the south K come , and Hhat xtho future depem np.qn herself.It impresses upon tl south the necessity for. better at enlarged transportation facilitic home improvements , cheapening navigation , and the cncouragemc : of agriculture. Jt seems probable that the defeat IB General Hancock and the dcmocral to the aouthsrn people. Already t' political lines are breaking , anH i independent movement is spreadii rapidly among the best and most i dustrious classes. The various sta n legislatures are maturing plans for t ! jf. encouragement of immigration ai the' extension of agricultural and i 11 dnstrial improvements. That co sorvatism , which heretofore regard' ' d as nn outcast every northerner wi > t differed in political faith from the m jority of the southern whites , faking away before the necassiiy the times , and every sign of the di > B j Indicates that the coming decaio w 0 witness in the southern states a broa ing down of those barriers which sc tiocalism aud iealousy for fiftci years have maintained to the gre : I detriment and loss of the growth ai d prosperity of the people.

If su < structures wera only dangerous their owusrs the case would bo serioi enough. They are often unfortunate erected in the midst of well bui blocks , containing strongly built rei deuces. On this account they are constant menace to the lives at property of thair neighbors. r Few cities of the size of Omaha pj so little official attention to the ma : ner In which her streets are built u It is high time that the matter shoul 3' "be attended to , not .only in the into 3'r esta of the city as a whole , but fi 1 the sake of the protection of individu 3 citizens. 7i 'OOOIDENTAJj JOTTINGS.
