PATTI was tbirty-nino ycara old on Sunday and colobtntod the event by giving.n quiet supper to friends in Cincinnati. THE regents of the utnveruity will find profitable reading in the com ments of the stixto press on their late star chambers session. THE voice of the Cincinnati hog haa boon drowned during tlio past week by the sensuous sounds of the oporatio festival and the divine Fatti. OMAHA arcnitects nro already hard pushed in drawing plans for residen ces and stores which will bo erected in this city during the coming spring and summer. THE bill to retire General Grunt is again before the senate. General Grant is not of a retiring disposition mid honors ought not to bo forced up on him. ' SENATOR SAUNDKRS' bridge bill scorns to bo a carefully drawn docu ment. There is some curiosity to know who compose the Omaha Central - ' tral railway company. Two million live hundred thousand copies of the revised Now Testamon ! have boon sold in America. There are no statistics aa to the numbei which have been opened after pur chase. No ono is inclined to deny or to depreciate prociato the brilliant services of oui soldiers in the war of the rebellion , and that is the reason why they shoulc no longer bo belittled to the base usei of demagogues.

MISSOURI RIVER IMPROVE. MENT. A committee chosen by the lati Missouri river convention at St Joseph is now in Washington for tbi purpose of urging upon Congress dm recognition of the claims of the Mia souri river upon the national treasury And to oak that uch appropriation ! shall bo made as will render its navi gation safe , and at all times reliable According to the report of Mayo : Suter the river can bo improved so n : to secure a uniform depth of twolvi foot at low water from its mouth ti Sioux City , and at a cost not exceed ing $10,000 per mile , or $7,820OOC in the aggregate. This sum is ro apecttully requested from Congress 01 behalf of a section of the country which produces 780,000,000 busholi of cereals annually , including ono dhird of the entire corn crop of tin .country. Cheap transportation is the greatest nd'moat crying need of the west The cost of transportation largely regulates the price realized by tin producer on his raw material. Ii the memorial cf the Iowa logislatun to .Congress it vas pointed out thai the products of this section of tin west hayo , at the present time , BO fai outgrown our aioano of trans portation that fully one ha'f ' of the price of si that we produce is .consumed in tin form of freights fiiuxl and rogulatoc by the corporation * who have undls puted control of our means of trans portation. This control is likely to bo maintained unless measures an taken to render available the great natural artery of commerce whicli passes through the great atates ol Iowa , Nebraska , % Kansas and Mis souri. According to the last conuus thn aggregate population of the four states was 6,198,103 inlubitanta. They produced in 1880 , five hundred and eighty-six million bushels of corn and nearly 800,000,000 bushels of grain. It la estimated that such an improve ment of the Missouri aa will make it for nine monthi in the year I will s\vo ( to Nebraska , Iowa , Kansas and Missouri farmers fully $100,000- 000 < > ach your and to the farmers of Nebraska alone § 20,000,000 per an- mm. mm.The strong interest which is taken in this subject of river improvement by the people of the west arises from the belief tint free nnd open water liigh-ways will prove the most olTco. live moans of forcing cheap transpor tation both by rail and water. Tin influence oi rivers and canals upot pirnloll lines of railways is too wel known to need discussion and the cf' ' cctof thocombinod competition of UK Inkcn nnd c.inals and the Missihsipp river during the past summer has r number of times been discussed it thcso columns. An open outlet hni now been provided to the Gulf ant ocean fltenmcrs can load with grain a1 tht ) wharves of New Orleans. Tin great river has been improved ami uonfmcd within its channels by mcnni of siiccessivo appropriations unti lljulH < f burfjea liuvo undo th'j tri [ with canu and profit from St. Paul t < the Gulf. What has boon done foi ( ho Mississippi is now demanded foi the Missouri. Millions of dollan have been squandered by Congress 01 the unimportant creeks and strcami in the cast which if applied to oui great inland water waya would have repaid ton fold the investment in tin increased wealth and comfort of the producers of the west. THE JAPANESE INDEMNITY FUND- A press dispatch announces tha the bill authorizing the payment o the Japanese indemnity fund 01 $1,870,340 to the Japanese government mont , with the exception of $254,000 which is to bo paid to the ofiicors ant crow of the United States ship Wyom ing , was passed on Monday in tin house amid applause. The friendly relations botweor Japan and the government of tin United States , which wore so happily inaugurated by Oommodoro Perry it 1853 , have since that time been bu once interrupted. The occasion -arosi in 1801 , when n noted daimio rebel n waa with the existing government it Japan iirod upon a foreign vessel it the employ of another daimio. Thi act of a rebellious subject was wrong fully construed as an insult by tin allied powers of Franco , Holland England and the United States , nn < was brought to the attention of tin Japanese government , which dis claimed nil intention of unfrieiidh ness , made most profuse apologies fo tno incident and professed itself un bio to control the rebel duimio. Tin powers in question thereupon' formo < a fleet , visited the rebel town and in fliotcd severe punishment upon tin offender , after which a convention wa called and a promise exhorted fron Japan that she would pay an indemnity nity of $3,000,000 for damage inflicted flictod and trouble occasioned on nc count of the war. The sum wn apportioned among the four powore The shuro of the United Slate amounted to about $700,000 in rotur ; for damages nnd expenses of abou § 50,000. When this sum had beoi moro than half paid the cool judgmon of our people began to assort itself. I was argued that it was a cowardly ac in a powerful nation to extort such sum from a weak country when in state of revolution and strong advc catos on the floor of Congress urge the return of the money with accumulated mulatod interest , to the Japanese gov eminent. On account of this foolin the money was never covered into th treasury but was allowed to acoumu late awaiting its final disposition b Congress. Meantitno Franco , Eng land and Holland wore domandin from the Mikado that he should ope his ports to the trade of all nation and upon his refusal called for th payment of the unpaid portion of th debt of 18C4. This action force from our government n like daman which was made and mot. Since the every session of Congress has wil nesscd the introduction of n bill to re turn the full amount with nccunn latod interest nnd the passage of Mot : day's bill to this effect will bo heartl endorsed by the country at largo. A NUMDEit of ill-bred nnd inconsiderate orate people attend the opoin house o every performance and annoy thei bettors by breaking for the aisles an doors before the performance is com plotod. It is doubtful whether man ; of them have overseen the curtain fal on the last act of a play since th opera hougo has been finished. Th noise of rising , putting on wraps , rep ing under Keats for hats and shufllin towards the aisles destroys the pleaa uro of those who wish to witness th conclusion of the performances am listen to the cloning words of the ac tore On behalf of such TUB UK protests against the ill-mnnnoroi idiots who don't know enough tokoe ] their Boats until the drop is down.

SCIENCE AND THE WOMAN QUESTION. One of the most interesting arti cles bearing upon the question of the physical and mental equality of the SOXOB which has recently appeared ifl that by Miss M. A. Hardakor , which occupies a leading position in the pages of tho.current number of The Popular Science Monthly. Tlio reForm - Form philosophy of thu suffering sis ; ters has for its object the breaking down of the diverse relations which are founded upon a difference of sex , \dmitting an inferiority in the posi tion and power of women in the econ omy of thu ntato , it claims that thu inferiority is duo to neanj temporary causes , which have their origin in long centuries of prejudice , and are maintained by laws which dis criminate against and render diflicull any genuine political or mental ad vancement on the part of woman. The object of Miss Hadakor's ' paper is to show that this admitted differ ence is duo to permanent conditions not removable by legislation and against which all agitation will bo useless. Taking uu the latest works upon differences in brain weights nnd moasuromontn she quotes Professor Bastiat'o remark that the general su periority in absolute weight of the male over the female brain exists at any period of develop ment , the dilfuronco according to the consent of nil accepted authorities being about ten per cent. The mean weight of the avurago brain ia 49 | ounces ; that of the foiralo brain 4-i ounces , It M further given , sayc Miss Uardaker , on the authority o Gratiolot and others , that tlio malt brain cannot fall below 37 ounce ! without involving idiocy , while tin fcmalo may fall to 32 ounces withou auch a result. From these facts the author deduces arguments as to tlu relative brain power of the sexes. I is as probable , nays Miss Hnrdaker that there is as exact a correspondence once between brain substance and intelligence tolligonco as there is between the sizi of the lungs and breathing powoi nnd the contractile power of the hoar and the quantity of blood propollcc through the arteries at each pulsation Matter and fore3 are in&oparablo am all human onur y ia primarily derivoc from food consumption. The nmoun of food consumed by man exceeds tha of woman by twenty per cout. , nnc this twenty per cont. in the nggrogat represents an excess of power oitho physical or mental or both over th other BOX. "Food converted int muscle will reappear as work ; fee converted into brain \fi\l \ reappear a thought and spoooh. " Handicapped by nature by thcs conditions woman's inferior ! ! to man cannofbo overcome by logia lation which must fail to touch th original andj permanent 'causes of th difference of position between th sexoa. History has shown that wo men have done something of uoarl everything that men have done , bu their offerings have boon fewer an smaller. Physical superiority , greato and moro continuous powers of can contration resulting from that physi cal superiority , make any such a sup position as an oven chance for th two sexes under the same coudition an impossibility. Miss Hardakor sums up as follows ono of the strongest elements of th argument from physiology : The perpetuation of the humai apecies is dependent on the functioi of maternity , nnd probably 20 poi cent of the energy of women botwooi twenty nnd forty years of ago is di verted for the maintenance of nm tornity nnd its attendant exactions Upon the supposition that woman' mental endowment wore exactly cqua to man's , the amount diverted to maternity tornity must bo continually sub tracted from it , so that any origina equality of intellect would certain ! ' be lost through maternity. ' Tin diversion of power would alsc occur in the years o highest physical vigor. This porioi in man is that of most active intellcc t'ual development , because the physi col basis of intellectual energy is mos abundant in those years. Consequent ly , his period of greatest intollootua gain corresponds to her period of great cat loss. To make this position more intelligible giblo , let us suppose the number o men and women in the world to bi exactly equal. Lot us further supposi them to bo of exactly the same weight nnd lot us add the condition of exact ly the same quantity nnd quality o brain in both , Vim onu ROJ would have txao , y tlio tunu capacity for transforming onortr ; aa the other , nnd tins wouk bo the ( ideal condition of thingi for which the reformers plead. But BO soon as a ainglo child is born , i certain amount of woman's energy ii transformed and imparted to u now individual. The development of the individual woman holds a constantly invorao ratio to the multiplication o tlio species , The maintenance of in tellectual equality between the BOXOB is impossible , bocaiuo it is only sup. ; ) )8ablo by the creation of impossible conditions. If our original men and women , who were in all rospoctz equal , hud no offspring , the equality vould contlnuo for a generation , until ho pocios ahould have disappeared ith the deAth of the last o ( those lypothotical beings. The article throughout is a thought- ul and carefully written presentation f the physiological argument ngainst ho equality of the sexes , This ar- , 'umont is ono which advocates of an mpossiblo nnd impracticable reform l find it most diflicnl , to meet. The right to suffrage presumably rests ipon the ability of electors to per- orm the duties devolving upon the citizens of the state and not to any ri ht inherent in the individual , [ licking in the aggregate such capac < ty because nature has wisely provi ded other channels for the directioi : of their energy , the best interests o ! women will bo best consulted and .hoso of the state itsulf will bo con served by the denial nf any furthoi extension of the elective franchise. THE CREATION OF VALUE. To the KJItnr of The lloo It is the province of our westm civilisation to brim , ' wealth into cxiit unco where the savnqo could find noth ng. Ho had tliia great western work 0 himself , but could niako nothini out of it. Fifty years ngo Illinoii was a wilderness , but civilization cami on with the wand of her power anc nighty cities roao like magic from tlu rich aoil. The prairie was always rich nit it took intelligence to develop it When wo think of the stupondoui .ransformntion in the great cities , vil ages and rich fnrma all the work ol a half century wosccin in dreamland nnd yet the treasures of Illinois , lie ] manufactures , massive buildings , hoi railroads , all sprang from her richsoil nnd moro thnn this , the east is riehei o-day for the existence of the groaf state. state.Wo Wo derive from these tacts n lessor 'or our own Nobra'ka. The highrsl ; ypo of intelligence develops the great est values. The man who succeed ! } cst on his farm is the man who know iiow to woo nature most successfully , The ancients thought each district o ountry was guarded by the "Genii1 of the land , which was , perhaps , onlj n shading of the fact that nature pro sontH different phased in different lo cations. Much has been lost by wagiiu war with the genii of Nebraska. A man might as well expect to prospci with n life long quarrel with his wih aa to wage your quarrel with nature Many a man has been sadly worstcc by bringing an eastern system of farm ing with him , a system which woulc not succeed. But when a man studici the adaptations of our wonderfu prairie state , and keeps on the righ side of nature , and docs what ho cat do , instead of trying what ho can" do , ho will succeed. For instance , i man in Illinois who has had a beautiful ful grove of European larch and fhn belts of Norway epruco and whiti cedar , comes to Nebraska with the deter tor in ination to have the same hero , In will bo sadly worsted. The dry winters tors will suck the life out of his pots and they will not succeed , and then is no use of his trying. Ho may tak the red cedar and the pinus ponde rosa and the Austrian pine , nnd h can aucccud. .If ho uoes to the lit publican valley and says : "East made money out of timothy grata an 1 will hero , " then ho will bo bad ! beaten. But lot him study the adaj : tations of soil and climate ; instead c timothy lot him BOW Hungarian an Mammoth millet , and he is all righl only put them -in very early. Ira menso herds of sheep , cattle an hogB extracts of rich vegetation- ere waiting development. Thousand of bushels of apples , cherries an plums are held in the solution , in th sunlight , earth and air , which nee moans to reveal themselves. Nebrai ka is rich in undeveloped resource ! Only keep en the right side of natun do what you can do , instead of frel ting about what you can't do. 0. S. HAHHISON.
