petitions in behalf pf MichealBoyton ,
alleged to be confined in English

Mr. Blair , of Hew Hampshire , of-
ferred in resolution that it was the
opinion of the senate that the best in
terests of the country demanded the
convening of tbSforty-geventh con
gress in sptclal session at once. He
asked for the reading of the resolution
merely for information and then had
read recent judicial decisions in the
case of Beckler vsVArthnr , concerning
the tariff on woofai goods. He thec
proceeded to dra&Trem tha latter a
reason for offoning bin resolution. In
addition to this tariff question , he
cited needed legislature for the estab
lishment of an intermediate court of
appeals. As further cause for an
extra session Mr. Blair said the whole
knit goods interest was threatened
and that was reason enough for an
extra session. Ho might have more
to eay upon the resolution should it
come up in regalar order.
At half past twelve Mr. Lcgan be an
a speech in refutation of what he
claimed were slanders against him In
regard to his position at the outbreak
of the war. He said ho was always a
Union man , although at time a dem
ocrat , and his slanderers bad stamped
him as in favor of secession , flu
cited his vote and speeches in con
gress in support of the president , in
his approval of the action of Major
Anderson at Fort Sampler , and read
letters from Senators Lamar and
Pusjh , who were in congress with him ,
in 1801 , endorsing him as always a
Union man and opposed to secession.
He briefly re vie wed his war record
and referred to his wounds and scars
aa certificate of hia loyalty. Further
testimony as to Gen. Logan's loyalty
were given by Messrs. Beck , Brown ,
Danes and others.
Don Cameron read a set speech , In
which he characterized the procaed-
.ngs of the democrats In the senate as
r&Vi lutlonary and of a piece with that
which plunged the country into four
years of war. He denied the claim of
the southern senator that southern os
tracism doea not exist in the month ,
asd read a letter from an old college
churn in support of the denial. An
example of ostracism was to be had in
the eonato itself. Tha democrats had
not only refused to recognize the sen
ator from Virginia as their peer , but
had openly insulted him , and refused
to pair with him. He appealed to the
democrats to pause ia their mad ca
reer. This country could not be
made great and good unless all parties
buried such hindrances as j.alousy
and ostracism.
Mr. Cameron's allusion to their
"mad career" wan received by the
democrats with laughter , but no re
ply was made , and at 4:10 p. m. the
senateadjonrned.

A Magnificent Performance at the
Academy of Music.
It was tha unanimous verdict of all
who had the felicity to witness Pas
sion's Slave nt the academy of music
last evening , that it far surpassedboth
in the character of the play and it's
representation , anything tint has been
put upon the b'oirds ia this city for a
long time. Mr. John A Stevens has
too wide and well established a repu-
t&tion as an emotional actor of the
highest order to need econiums at this
tim ? , other than thoee which may
with propriety bo passed upon this
successful introduction of his pan.
But it Is rare that a ettr of ouch mag
nitude is followed by BO excellent a
cast nnd given ao powerful snppo.t.
Miss Helen Bbke , as leading lady , is
deserving of all the praises that were
showered upon her , and together with
Mr. Stevens , rchly merited the en-
thuaiasm of the audience , who called
them several times before the curtain.
Mr. W. H. Biiloy , ai Oapt. Napolern
Bonaparta Shorta'.eevo , Mr. J. H.
Miller as Daniel Webster Straight-
built , Miss Lottie Church aa Patty ,
Mlas Angie Griffith as Grace Toogood ,
and all the others who so well bore
their parts , are doubly worthy of
complimentary mention. The troupe
is in all senses a strong one and at an
other visit to Omaha will doubtless be
greeted by a crowded house.

KEBEABKATEAY CKOP.
Increasing Demnnd and De
creasing Supply.
From the earliest settlement of No-
araska until a resent period the im
mense acreage of hay land lying along
; Le Missouri in Washington and Bart
coGntie3although tributary to Omaha ,
where there has si stays baen a large
demand for hay , has been of but little
practical use , owing to the difficulty
of bringing loose hay that distance.
KecDgnizing this fact , Mr. John Hor-
sach , of the Omaha , it Northwestern
railroad , aome three years einco msda
propositions to farmers and stock men
n that vicinity , looking to the utiliz-
og of the hay which had heretofore
gene to waste , offering them reduced
transportation rates , on condition
that they hare the hay bailed and put
In marketable shape. T.hla proposition
was very promptly accepted by Mr.
Vick. Lantry , ot Blair , and others ,
the remit being that an entirely new
industry haj boon ballt up in that lo-
cillty ana for two ysars past thous
ands of bales of hay have been brought
to Omah.i annutlly from thoje coun
ties , irhera.formerly not a pound was
shipped. The advantage of this has
boon doubly appreciated within the
pait month , tha fact b3ing that Oma
ha during that time has been entirely
dependent upon the bailed hay receiv
ed from Washington and Burt crun
ties , and the demand has boon so great
that at present it Is selling at $20 per
ton , and men who have hay to sell are
"way up" as far aa credit Is concerned.
In this connection it may be stated
tht it ia reported that last fall Mr.
James Stephensoa nurchased of one
of the Washington county dealers two
hundred tons of hay , at § 5.50 per ton
bai'ed ' , which hay ho now finda a ready
market for at § 15 per ton wholceala ,
the railroad freight being a trifle over
one dollar pjr ton , thus leaving him a
not income of over § 8 per toner ? 1COO
for its investment ot six months since.
Heretofore a grait deal of tha hay
supplying t'io ' Omahi market has
been brought in looae from the Papyo ,
immediately west of this city. The
demand in the city has steadily in
creased , whila the acreage suitable for
hay purposes hai very rapidly dimin
ished , in conieqaoiico of the land be
ing tilled. EIow the city is bo sup
plied in thj futurj has become a very
important problem To the west and
north of us h a vast extent of land
specially adapted to the making ol
hay , and when It Is known
that the making and baling
of hay doea not cost more
than $3.50 per ton , acd that hay
rarely sells in the Omaha market now
at less t ban $10 per ton and at times
rrashes the present high figure of
$20 , it will bo seen that there is a very
handsome margin from which Nebras
ka farmers cm derive a benefit. Ordi
nary hay land yields on the average
two tons of prairie grass per acre , and
by cultivation the yield could bit
largely increased.
Nor Is the market for Nebraska hay
confined to Omaha and our river
cities , for it is becoming tha policy of
many of our large atcck dealers ( o
enter mere and more into winter
feeding.
