COUNWALMS has aurrondorod. The revolutionary war is over , nnd the senate of thcso United States is about to resume its dreary sessions with the ponderous independent-greenback party in the chair. PLANS are in contemplation for four now business blocks on Farnam street , which will do much to Till up the ugly paps in our main business street. Omaha needs more four and five story brick and Htono buildings. Tur.iiK is a movement on foot to secure - cure the removal of Mr. Dofrccs , the pa-sent government printer , on the ground of his past political affiliations. The actual ground is probably because Boino pure-minded patriot BCOS a political plum in the great govern ment printing office which Mr. Do- frees redeemed from disgrace.

TUB bureau of stain-tics has pub lished its report for September , anc the eight months previous.

In wheat and corn the decrease ia 8,000,000 bushels , am' for the eight montliH 42,492,000 bushels. This it the result'of the speculation which for months past has locked up in the elevator * at Chicago millions of bushels of grain , and liUs blocked the wools of trade throughou the country in ono of its most import fut branches. CREDIT MOBIMER- PinLADBLntiA , Pa. , October 19. In the United Slutos court to-day an order was nmdo authorizing Olive Amen , receiver of the credit mobiliei of America to execute unto Tlioa. 0 Durant , president of the orodi mobilior a full and womplolo rolcasi of all donmnds against him by crudi mobilior upon the execution and delivery livery by Durant of a proper Icga conveyance of real estate situated neni Council Bluffs , Iowa , amounting U about 320 acres and lands in Plat county , Nebraska. Hero wo have another chapter o credit mobilior that will interest semi of the old settlers of Omaha and No brn.ikn. It is now nearly eighteen years ainco Durant and tlio crcili mobilior gang of highwaymen invadc ( this section of the country. Will a land grant covering at empire mid princely subsidies amount ing to thirty millions , they doliberatc ly not about to bleed , bulldoze ant blackmail the inhabitants of over ] town and village through which their road was to pass. Thus Oiimlm was bled and blackmailed out of a coo million in lands , lots and bonds , anc thus Columbus , the future capital o America on George Francis Train'i map , was c.xjolod into donating hal her town lots to the Credit Fonoior ring , which practically was the inside ring of the credit mobilior ring , Tom Durant recklessly squandered the millions ho acquired in his credit mobilior operations , but the late la mented Oakcs Ames , whoso inonu mont adorns the crest of the Rocky mountains , and Sherman put his money where it did the most good. Wo are gratifioi to notice that the lioirs of this great and good man hav finally consented to quitclaim Durant for all the claims that the credit rae bilior may have against him on condi tion that Durant makes a legal con- voynnco of his illegally acquired Council Bluffs depot grounds and his lalf section near Columbus , in Platte county. AN EXTENSIVE SYSTEM. The recent visit of the railroad ofli- ials of the 0. , B. & Q. to Denver has rcfliil'cd in Rome important move ments on the railway checker board. It is announced that the Burlington route to Denver will bo pushed with all possible speed from both ends of the lino. Work will bo at once begun - gun on the Colorado division of the road at Denver , and will continue eastward until the contractors now working in the Republican valley westward arc mot and the two ends of ; ho line join , The open- ng of' ' the Union Pacific's now Julcsburg line to Denver las stimulated the Burling'on ' officials to tiso every effort in hastening the entrance of their uyntoin into the cen tennial a ate , and neither time nor means will bo spared towards the ac complishment of this end. This is nowA of great importance to our state , and especially to she republican val- oy. It indicates that the entire line will bo completed and in running cr- dor by the middle of Juno of next rear , by which time through trains vill bo tun from Chicago to Denver , ind a competing line will afford low benefits to the producers of the west. The now road will bo twenty miles shorter than any existing line , not excepting the Julosburg "cut off" of the Union Pacific. The grades will bo easy and .ho road-bed throughout equal to that of the Burlington system in Iowa. Up to the proaont time the proposed ocationof the Republican Valley route nto Denver has been carefully con cealed from the public by the manage- nont. Various aurvoys have boo" nado of available routes entering the capital of Colorado from both lorth nnd notith , but the exact ino finally adopted hat not boon lubliahcil. From the best authority Tui ! Bun is enabled to give the line which in now under contract M fol lows. From Oulbortson west the road will bo built to old Fort Morgan in Arupahoo county , Colorado , taking n tangent in a northwcstorly direction and varying from a duo west and 'east line about thirty miles. The diver gence is caused by the difficulty ex perienced in crossing the divides of tributaries of the republican river which will bo loft * to the south. From old Fort Morgan the line strike * southwesterly to Denver which U distant nearly ninety miles , and which will bo entered from the north. Tim entire line as surveyed is said to bo very frco from hojvy grades , and can bo readily kept in repair. The through route at present will bo by way of Plattsimmth , Lincoln , Hastings and Rod Cloud , but in tiio future , should the necessities of busi ness demand it , a change may bo made .which will shorten the distance some thirty miles. Under this plan a cut-off from the main line of the B. & M. vill bo made at , a point west of Hastings , and a line built to a point on the Republican Valley road went of Rod Cloud and in the vicinity1 of Arapahoe Thin "cutoff1 will form a portion of the main line of the Burlington route to Denver , saving over an hour in time and shortening the distance nearly thirty miles over that by way of Hastinga and Rod Cloud. This will giro now railroad facilities to the counties ! Adams , Kearney , Harhn and Furnav But , the Burlington officials , not satis fled with this outlet alone , have nearly completed this southern Nebraska sy tem from Nemahn city westward to a junction with the western division of the Republican valley road. The now railroad in northwestern Missouri , articles of in corporation for which wore filed lasl week in Alchison , will bo the natural eastern connection with this line , furnishing - nishing a through route from Burling ton Junction on the Chariton branch of the main line of the 0. , B & Q. to Denver by way of the Republican val ley railroad. When the Missouri river ia brid od at Noniaha city , as it is certain to bo nt no late day the value of this inde pendent line across southern Ne braska can scarcely bo overestimated. Railroad construction between rival lines has become in thcso days a battle - tlo of giants , and it is very evident that the Burlington officials do not intend to take a low place in the liata of contestants lor' western trade and traffic. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ A DISPATCH from Chicago announces that Manager A. E. Touzalin of the Burlington it Missouri railroad has biien elected first vice president of the Ohicagi , Burlington and Quincy sya tern. Mr. Touzalin has accepted the position and will shortly remove to Boston from which point ho will direct the policy of the Burlington system. The office of vice president to which ho succeeds hoa boon occupied for a number ot years paat by Mr. C. E , Perkins of Burlington , Who fifteen years ago waa general superintendent of the old B. & M. in Iowa when Mr. Touzalin was general ticket agent of that corporation. Since that time Mr. Touzalin has been constantly con * noctod with the Burlington interest with the exception of a few years during which time ho built up the and grant of the Santa Fo road as the and commissioner of that system , lumors of the impending resignation of Mr. John Forbes of the Burlington and the promotion of Messrs. Perkins and Tonzalin wore presented in the BUK nearly two months ago and emphatically affirmed after the management of the Santa Fo system was offered to and declined by Air. Touzalin. Mr. Touzilin's brilliant qualities as a railroad manager have not found full scope in Omaha , al- hough his direction of the finances and policy of the Burlington & Mia- souti River Railroad in Nebraska has ) oen marked by great success. With lie consolidation of the liuo , with the Turlington system it was generally alt that ho would bo called up lighor aud the election .of Woclnos- lay is the result. Mr. Touzalin's new- duties will call him away from Omaha , and vill lese to our city ono of its most > opular , public spirited and ontorpris- ng residents. During his residence n Omaha , Mr. Touzalin has made many friends and has retained them ill. Ho has boon foremost in a num- > or of plans for the improvement of Durcity and has soont money liberally n furtherance of his ideas" , His do- partnro will bo felt As a personal loss > y a larKo oirclo of frionda and will bo mivorsally regretted by the com munity at large. Mn. ScoviLtK , brothor-in-law and ounsol for Guiteau , has a very heavy on tract , on his hands. Mr. Scovillo vill not Rucceod in proving that Prcai- ' [ out Garliold's death waa duo to mal practice rather than to the wound in- lictod by Guitoau. Whilo.thcro was i good deal of sharp criticism in va- ioua quarters of the treatment of the resident's case , it was criticism based in a supposition not sustained by the loat-mortem examination. The opin- on expressed to young1 GarOeld after tia father's death , by Ur , Hamilton , hat all that science and skill could do , iromptod by the moat loving in- oroat , to prolong the precious ifo , will undoubtedly atand as the opinion of the most intelligent sur geons of our country and of the world. Guitouu'a only hope of escape from ho attentions of the 'hangman rest ipoti the pica of insanity. But oven tore , however successful Mr. Scovillo nny bo proving insanity to bo in the emily and run in the Guiteau blood , 10 will encounter the fact that Gui toau , ainco the shooting , lias givun.no evidence of being beside himself men- ally. On the contrary , ho has shrewd- y managed his own caao , and scouts the idea of being insane. Ho was nothodical and calculating in Booking an , opportunity to [ commit .ho infamous deed , taking in all ho circumstances beforehand , and providing for his own immediate safo- : y from the infuriated people , whoho mow , weald have torn him limb front limb in their righteous indignation. In all this he calculated nicely and carefully , and it will bo difficult to bring a jury of twelve intelligent men to heliovo him to have boon so disor dered mentally as to bo relieved of either legal or moral responsibility for his act.
