Dreadful Holocaust Among the Politicians. List of the Dead , Wounded 4 j { ' and Missing. Commuaic ited. ] STATE OF BEATRICE , January 24 , 1881. A terrific explosion of political dynamite occurred in the opera house at Lincoln January 22 , at 4 p. m. , ' when on the seventeenth ballot Gen. j 0. H. Van Wyck received 68 votes , nd Paddock 36. It is supposed to have beec the work of the nihilists , ] and was planned so secretly that the victims had not the slightest iatima tion of their dreadful fate. Paddock himself was bliwn to atoms , and friends fished out of the debris fragments of Harrington , Silvers , Parker , Bogga and a pair of forceps , npposed to have belonged t > Dr. Franck. The coroner at first thought of holding an inquest over these pieces , but further reflection convin ced him that there was not enough [ eft of them.to justify the expense. Some unimportant parts of S. V. S. Saundera were picked up near "Boss" Stout's hotel. A small piece of flesh was picked up near the Union Pacific depot , sup posed to have belorged either to 3ere , of The Jourj.il , or John R. Ulark , but it was impossible to de termine which , as both are missing. Hitchcock , in a good state of preser vation considering , was found on a eand bar in the Missouri river , near Omaha , clutching an agreement in writing from Paddock for another rip rap contract. Jim Dawes wa Found intact , but evidently scared to death , otherwise unhurt. There was a horrible look of remorse and agony upon his face , caused , beyond doubt , iy his treachery to his old friends. Joe Paddockwhen collected togeth er , looked as if Red Cloud and Sitting 3ull had quarreled over him. The fragments of Bill Morri , of Crete , had to be hurried away uncer emoniously. The shock blew Thurston out of his position of political manipulator for , he Union Pacific. But the most afiecting sight of all was a leg which I found and instantly recognized as a portion of the under pinning of Gen. Joe. McDowell. It iras an affecting sight. It had BO of ten been seen in the front of Pad dock's battles , and always victorious , [ t had become as celebrated aa the white plume of Navarre. That "game" leg never met defeat , and to lear its unpretending and modest owner tell the story , it never conld mow defeat. But something wert wrong and that marvelous leg , whicV iad planned so many campaign * , and from which Paddock had drawn GO many lessons of wisdom , ceased t ? perform its intellectual functions , and the empire over which that leg had BO long ruled , was shattered into ruins. ruins.Many others were killed or wound ed , and Van Wyck was carried up in blaze of glory and seated on the right hand of Saunders , while Crounse , [ jaird and the other faithful , are to Inherit the earth.

He received an ex cellent academical education , and was graduated from Rutger's College , at New Brunswick , N. J. , where he won high honors as a brilliant student and able debater. General Van Wyck early obtained recognition In his na tive state as possessing more than or dinary qualifications for public life , and was twice elected to congress from the Poughkeepsie district. At the outbreak of the war he raised a rugiment of volueteers , and entered upon active service aa its first colonel. He was later promoted to a brigadier generalship , and was recalled from the battle field to serve his constituents for a third term on the floor of the na tional congress. During his third term General Van Wyck made an ox- curaion to Nebraska , and purchased his present farm In Otoe county. Re turning , he was again re-elected as congressman from the Poughkeepsie district , when he gained the name of the "third member from Nebraska , " on account of his constant advocacy of measures tending to the advancement and development of oar state. Gen era ! Van Wyck was known on tse floor of congress as a bitter enemy of the lobby , and a strong advocate of legitimate schemes for internal im provements , a ready debater , quick to perceive Insidious schemes for private plunder , a strong and unflinching sup porter of republican principles , and a conscientious attendant upon all de bates Involving the strengthening of the hands of the republican adminis tration. General Van Wyck moved to Ne braska In 1871 , and has been a con tinuous resident of the state for the past ten years. Much of his at tention has been devoted to his mag- dificent farm of nearly 1000 acres near Nebraska City , but he has taken a strong interest in our state politics. In 1875 he has a member of the con stitutional convention. Since then he has thrice bean called upon by the people of Otoe county to serve their interests in the etato senate , ot which he ( s at present a member. Personally , General Van Wyck is almost too well known to our people to need description G nial and unpretending , he makes friends eaiily , and retains them when once made. He is a man of strong convictions , and does not hesitate to express them. Quick and nervous in action , fluent and ready In speech , he is cool and self-possessed in the most trying moments of debate , and generally comes out master of the sit uation. With his estimable and bril liant wife , General Van Wyck will doubtless be as great a social , as there is every reason to believe he will msko a political , success in Wasiog ton.

Logan's Motion to Oon ider Ms Bill to Pension Grant , Pre cipitates a Lively De- hate. An Estimate of General Grant by the Southern Fire Eaters. Logan Declares Him to be the Equal of the Hero of " Waertloo. Special Dispatch to Ths Bee. SENATE. WASHINGTON , Jannary 24 Mr. Logan presented several memorials from soldiers protesting against the paaoage of tbo surgeon pension bill , and Messrs. Wallace aud Pendleton petitions for the passage of the Re igan inter-state commerce bill. Mr. Garland , from the judiciary committee , reported a substitute for the bill providing for the distribution of the Geneva award. Placed on the calendar. Mr. Pendleton gave notice that he would cill up the bill appropriating $500,000 for completing < nd publish ing the tenth census. He also give notice that on the following day he would call up the bill for the relief of Brigadier-General Armstrong. The bill for the relief of Commodore Fairi fax , U.S. N. , was also passed. Mr. Logan then aaked unanimous consent to take up and consider the bill placing Gen. Grant on the retired list. list.Mr. Mr. Vest , of Missouri , objected. Mr. Logan then moved to lay aside the present order and proceed with the consideration of the bill. Mr. Bayard suggested that it would be better to allow memorials which hud been presented to be considered. Memorials-protesting against legisla tion in favor of any individual , and . asking that there should be a general [ aw , giving to all men who had ever occupied the great office of chief mag istrate of the United States a pension commensurate vri'h the high office they had filled. He had no hesitation In saying that in a popular govern ment there should be some provision against popular caprice. Mr. Logan said he did not wleh to discucs the subject of pensioning ex- presidents in connection with this bill , bnt as a recognition of the ser vices of a great aoldier , where so many caeca had been passed by the senate , the opposition t : > the bill looked more like personal objection to it. He re ferred to the action of England in its expression of gratitude for Wellington and Nelson , and asked if thia country would do leas for one who was their equal. Only a Week ago the senate bad passed a bill , placing an officer on the retired Hat higher than he ever was in the army. A man was retired lait year as a brigadier-gen eral , and a man in Oregon , who has resigned was made a colonel that he might go on the retired Hat. He might recite case after case , where bills bad been passed without objection , merely because they were friends of the other side , and not because of val uable services. But when the friends of the great ciptain of this nation ask the same for him as has been done for others , objection is made. The people of the country said we owe a debt which we can never pay , and It Is to the defenders of this re public. When the name of a man of all others to which this country Is in debted , more than the millions of gold in the treasury can pay , is pre sented here , it was not with sub sti- tutes. He deaired thia to be a recog nition of the ex-president the great leader of the loyal legions of the re public. But a few days had gone by since by a united vote the other side sought to place on the retired list , with the ( highest rank he ever held , not for services ! , he would not say for disloyla- tybut certainly It was , for he had been tried by his peera In the army , and dismissed for improper conduct , When he pressed the name of a man against whom no word could be said , objection waa made. Future history would record a refusal of this senate to recognize the services of this man. Mr. Hill , of Georgia , said hedld not propose to be influenced In tha slightest degree by any one on either aide in hia vote on this proposition , He had not given as much consideri atlon to this subjects he deaired to. Theie had been three great epochs in the history of this country. First , its discovery and settlement ; second , the achievement of its independence , and the formation of the continental government - ernment ; and third , what will be known in history aa the revolution of 1861. That was a great revolution on account of the great result B. He would not speak of the motives of the actors in it. In his judgement the' re sults of the great revolution of 1861 were little less than the other two epochs. He regarded General Grant as the most remarkable man which the events of the last revolution de- veloped. In his judgement the re sults of the last revolution would not have been a success but for him. There were men more responsible for the events of that revolution ihan General Grant. But whatever the merits or demerits might be , he would take his place in history as the great man of the revolution of 1861. What these erent * would justify him In doing , when the bill came properly before the senate , he was not prepar ed to say. He considered the bill Im portant because It related to the great character of the revolution , but should oppose Its present considera tion. tion.Mr. Mr. Vest announced his opposition to the bill on its merits. He had the greatest admiration for the military skill of Gen. Grant and had for him personally the kindest feelings. The southern people had always had for him the kindest feeling and when , at Appomattox , he handed back to another great soldier , Robert E. Lee , hia stainless sword , the southern heait went up in gratitude. They had man ifested their gratitude on other oc casions when he entered the arena of partisan politics. He ( Vest ) held for one , that , having risked everything on the hazard of the die , he should abide the result. The republican side now wasted them to take care of their dead and wounded. He had gone into the fight at Chicago and been killed off. The funeral obse quies belonged to the other aide. Their side had enough of their own wonnded and dead to take care of. [ Laughter. ] Mr. Logan said he was sorry any senator should attribute a proposition of this kind to political reasons. He had based it wholly on the eminent military services of Gen. jSrant. So far as the killed and wounded were concerned the senator from Missouri could apply a portion of his remarks elsewhere. He said that ascertain of ficer at Baltimore , at an early part of the war resigned his commission in the army and took no part la the war , retiring to civil life. When a major ity of his friends were on this floor , he was put on the retired _ Hst as a colonel. This case was one in forty. He was not put on the retired list for his services In the war for the reason that he did not engage ID it. What the reasons were , he would leave the country to judge. The precedent had been established in many'cases. He said if this measure was refused to Gen. Grant , history would record that it WAS refused because of partisan prejudice. Mr. Butler said he did not think there was the sllghtesl ustiScation for the choigo that those who'Jirot at once vote to takejup this bill , to the exclusion of all other business , were prejudiced. He did not Intend to be dragooned into voting for or against this bill by any one. He should vote against taking it up at thia time with out expressing any opinion as to the bill. He had no prejudices against Gen. Grant. No man would go far ther than'himself to do him justice. If injustice had been done him before , he could vote for the bill , but there mast be a reason given for it. He had heard none yet. A vote waa then taken on the mo tion i of Mr. Logan , aud was rejected , yeas 25 , nays 29. The bill allotting lands in severalty to Indians then came up as unfinished bnsneBand ! , was discussed by Messrs , Vest , Dawes , Hoar , Coke , Morgan and Brown , until 4 o'clock , when without action on the bill , the senate , on motion of Mr. Ingalla , went into executive session , and when the doors were opened , adjourned.

The recent ] extraordinary weather , added to { the severity of the winter as a whole , taken together with the unhap py ; state of things politically through out the British empire , lap stirred up i afresh the discussion of the so-called prophecies ] of Mother Shlpton , that the world is to come to an end this year. ; Notwithstanding the undisputable - j putable demonstration that the proph- cy < named is an Interpretation into the original < prophetic rhymes of Mother Shipton j , and dates back no further than i 1860 or 1862 , many peoole feel and i express mu h anxiety.
