The hotels of Lincoln have been
crowded before. They have cntcrlaincd
slate fair ; vlsllors and republican state
conventions. They have entertained the
combined forces of Miller and Merion
whenIho democracy has been convoked
at the capital city , and finally the city
has passed through many legislative BOS-
Hlons. Never before , however , have the
hotels had their capacity tested as t cy
have at the present time , the days in
which the legislature of the state is en
gaged In solecllng a UnllcJ State s sena
tor. The delegations that have reached
the city are from every section of tlio
state a delegation or sixty. coming
from Valentino and vicinity ; other dele
gations coming from the northeast cor
ner of the stale ; others from Cuinlng and
. Madison counties ; others from Valley in
' tlio northwest ; from Keith ami Dawson ,
from the Republican Valley country ,
while from the moro immediate vicmlly
of Lincoln , Pawnee , Gage , Johnson , *
Oloe , Dodge and oilier counlics have
fainy cniplletl lliohiselvcs of pol-
ilicians into the seething , boil-
steaming mass of humanity that
jams and crowds the corridors of the ho
tels and even crowd the capitol building
full when the attraction is that way. In
tlio catalogue of attendants Cans county
should not bo omitted , the county that
has been characterized as the headquar
ters for hogs and babies , the real porkers
and no rollecllon on the inhabitants.
From this county every Dr. Miller demo
crat is in the city In force , and this pecu
liar field of the doctor's never was moro
prolific. To analyizo all this great at
tendance would bo ono of the natural Im
possibilities , but ono safe conclusion to
roach , and which the oldest inhabitant of
these political headquarters recognizes ,
is the fact that never before have the people
ple of the stnto taken HUGH interest in the
selection of a representative of the upper
house .of congress. The crowd is ,
above all , a good uaturcd one.
and , as ono of the hotel
men remarked , are content to
bleep six in a bud and bo happy with
whatever accommodations can bo granted
them. Blows have not been passed be
tween animated supporters of rival can
didates but in ono instance , which speaks
t volumes for tlio peace and qtiiutness of a
thousand men who pack themselves TO-
nnlarily like sardines in a box.
TO A KAltOE DKOENr.HATr.n x
has bccmo the historical third house , and
to the small and tipathctio crowd that
gathered at representative hall to listen
to the very common personal black
guardism of a man named Pcarman ,
there was no interest anil no amusement
furnished. Judge Sahler sat in the
speaker's chair , Mr. Stark , of Aurora ,
acted as chief justice , anil
the poet laureate of the elate
read Pearman's message. Not a person
of any prominence occupied a scat on the
floor of the house , and as quickly as
Poarman's laudation of thocountry along
the Hue of the B. & IU. in Kansas , and
liis llings at the men in public lifo was
completed , the niullonco departed with
out ceremony. They know when they
hail enough. There was a good deal of
disgust at the depth to which the pristine
glory of the third house has sunken , but
. in tins day and ape lifo is too short to
waste in the work of any house but the
ono legitimate.
INSUHANCR llKTtinNS.
The dill'cront insurance companies
doing business in the state have com-
incncmt handing in their reports for the
year 1880. These reports cover their sta-
tislics in business and form a valuable
comparison each company with tlio
ether , as wtill as showing the increase
und volume of business transacted in the
state. The reports ttius far received are
but a fraction of tlio tolal uumberpbut
those already returned show about an
average with the amount of Inisinesg
transacted by them a year ago , which
would leave the increase in business over
the Htato to bo compensated by the now
companies that during the year have
boon admittocd to transact business in
Nebraska. The following

Some ArmiHinK Stories of Xlioir Chnr-
itiiblo Originals.
Readers of "Nicholas Nickolby" need
not bo reminded of the "Chooryblo
Brothers,1' says a writer in Temple Bar.
Tlio originals were the Messrs. Grant ,
whoso extensive , if somewhat eccentric ,
benevolence was. well known ; to whom
DicketH was introduced in company
with Mr. John Morley , by Mr. W. Harri
son Ainsworlh , at ti dinner given by Mr.
Gilbert Winter in 1858. The srtirvivors of
tlio brothers used always to put a sum of
money in his pocket to give away in the
course of the day. A clergyman asked
him for a subscription.
"Put your hand in my side pocket and
you shall have all you can find in it. "
The parson did so and fished tip a sever
eign. "You are welcome to it , said Mr.
Grant , "only mind it is the only com L
have lelt. "
lie once asked the same clergyman at
dinner what his education cost him.
"A matter of 2,000. " was his answer.
' I'm afraid , " said the questioner ,
"education is not a good investment. ,
Hero you spent 2,000 on your education ,
and , as you toll mo , your curacy is only
150 a year. My education cost mo noth
ing , nnd I am making a good many
thousands a year. But I dare say you
will got some interest ; somewhere else"
looking upward "anil as 1 believe you
are in want of a couple of hundred
pounds or so , como to my warehouse and
I'll oblige you. "
But they were shrewd men , their
benevolence notwithstanding. A master
ono day wanted some work" done which
could only bo managed by a certain
skilled workman. Unfortunately the
man was given to drink. So n bargain
was struck , that , besides his wages , he
should hnvo gin and water ad libitum.
"Now mind " said the "
, master , "you
promise to drink tin what 1 llrst give you
before you touch a drop moro. "
As the work wont on the man asked for
his gin.
"How much will you start with ? "
"Sixpcnn'orth. "
"Now gin nnd water , mind you ; nnd
you must drinfc it nil before you drink
again. Hot or cold ? "
"Cold. "
"All right. Hero coos. Bring mo a
pail of water. "
It was brought , nnd into that the gin
was poured. The man was dumb
founded , but ho was hold to his bargain ,
and the work got done. As ho went
array sober , of course , and with his
wages in his pocket ho turned round
anu faced his employer.
"Master , " said ho , "there's no ono can
get the bettor o' thee but one , and that'a
til' ould chap hisself. "

Absurd Fancier of the Kmpcror or
Morocco The Itiilnn of Famous
CarthftRC All tlmt Is lioft
of tlio City.
s , Africa , Dec. 1 , 1835 [ Special
Correspondence of the Chicago Tribune. ]
T o one unfamiliar with the habits of Afri
can rulers it seems strange to think of
the head of a somewhat extensive ouiplro
going from llio council room nnd the
cares of stale to find his recreation with
the toys nnd playthings of his nursery.
The present emperor of Morocco is a
curious combination of Moslem faith and
child-like simplicity. At times ho is n
monarch , managing the affairs of his em
pire , and "at oilier times n grown up
child , amusing himself with some now
toy that has happened to please his fancy.
Ho has acquired not a little mechanical
knowledge through his craving for what
is novel anil ingenious. O'uo room of hit
palace is said to contain a great number'
of machines , some very expensive , which
ho has transported from foreign countries
to his capital. They scorn , however , to
possess for him no utilitarian properties ,
for as soon as they cease to amuse they
are put asulo nnd stored away.
The most important seaport of this In
teresting ompcmr'H dominions is the city
of Tangier , six hours' sail from Cadiz , in
southern Spain , and only two and a half
hours' sail from the Island of Gibraltar.
No ono who chances to bo in cither of
these places should fail to run over to
this curious old Moorish town , where
scarcely out of sight of the English and
Spanish ( lags slaves can bo seen walking
in the streets and working in the Holds
just outside of the walls. It is only n
year ago that the regular slave market of
Tangier was abolished. To see men ,
women and children openly bought and
sold in the market place one must now
go inland to some of the interior towns
a journey which it is hardly safe to take
alone , but on which one should have ono
or two armed soldiers accompany him.
Of Morocco , Algiers , Tunis nnd Tri
poli the four Barbary states upon the
northern coast ot Africa , by fnr the most
Important is Algiers , and it owes its pros
perity to the infusion of French ideas and
enterprise which it received when the
French nation conquered it. There is a
marked contrast between this flourishing
French possession nnd its western
neighbor. The latter has changed little
within the last few years , while the form
er has shot ahead and developed at u
most astonishing rate. From various
cities ruihoads liuvo b'cen extended in an
easterly , westerly , and southerly direc
tion , and the last rails have within a few
months been laid which bring together
the lines of cast and west Algiers , and
establish connections between Gran nnd
Constantino. One is no longer depend
ent for transportation upon diligences or
boats , for the Jid of last November
through railroad sorvio between Oran
and Tunis was in operation and the first
regular through tram was started. The
rejoicing that took place at the time was
detracted from by the explosion of the
boiler of the locomotive that milled the
second train , and the loss of .several
lives. It was a curious sight , traveling
over this road a couple of weeks after it
was completed , to Inul Arabs , wearing
turbans and long , white robes , mounted
sometimes on camels or horses , but more
usually upon little donkoys.riding slowly
along beside the railroad tracks. Algiers
and Oran , the two most important cities
of Algiers , are modern. Constantine
is moro a relio of the past. There is little
tlo of Arabian architecture that is worthy
of notice. And by far the most interesting
scenes in Constantine are "outside of it. "
It is built upon a hill , and from the plain
below is u combination of varied scenery
that it would bn dillicult to find
anywhere else in the world. A deep gorge
with a high waterfall that is wild
and romantic , a miniature Colorado
canyon , a sandy plain , stoop and rugged
mountains , u tropical garden , and tin
old , walled city , rising up above a pre
cipice altogether ana visible at onetime
time unite to make a strange and beau
tiful picture. In the center of the town
in a largo building , which is roofed ,
though not walled , is the gram marketer
or board of trade. It might not inappro
priately bo called tin "open" board : and
while a great deal of business is done ,
there can bo no question whatever of its
perfectly legitimate character. There is
no buying of grain not yet sown , no
sales of grain to bo delivered some time
in the future. All the wheat , corn nnd
barly Is in plain sight piled up beside the
native Arab merchants , who measure it
out and pour it into the bags of the buy
ers , who carry it oil"on the backs of
horses , donkeys or camels. The board
opens very early in the morning , but
long before noon the traders huvo fin
ished the business of the day , and the
place is entirely deserted.
If that fierce old Honiun dcstructionist
Cato , with his interminable Carthage do-
londa est , could como for only a few min
utes from. Hades and see how thoroughly
Carthage has boon destroyed , ho would
certainly bo able to rest in pcaco until
the judgment day. There is aosolutoly
not ono stone lelt upon another above
ground ot that wondorlul old Punic city ,
that in ilsilay was the most important in
the world. The ruins oven have been
done away with , and all that can bo found
upon the site of Carthage are the cis
terns , great brick nrchud underground
Htructures , that in their decay show what
they must have been when the city was
in its power. An old Spanish fort occu
pies the place where once Queen Dido's
palace stood , nnu the sea has washed
away the land and dnslroycd the there of
the bay from which . /tineas stole away to
leave the fair Carthagonian queen
disconsohito und ready to die.
There is no spot in northern Africa
so impressive as the cqmpleta and total
desolation on the hito of tlio old Cartha-
genian capital. Situated a fuvv miles
from there is the city of Tunis , the cap !
tal of the country of thn same niuno. In
a commercial way it preserves little of
tlio I'lHunlahin glory. It is n few miles
( Mstant from the sea , and its trade is al
most entirely rotnil , nnd coulinrd to the
little shops which line the sides of the
narrow streets , and which , with their
chattorinir Arabian and Jewish proprio-
Inis , are the most intuiusting sights ol
the country. They are little square
boxes , some of them not moro than six or
eight feet square , and each has a little
square window or door The owner bits
cross-leggoU on the lloornnd all his goods
are within reach ot his hands as ho
smokes his pipu and quietly awaits your
purchase or your refusal to buy. Eltlioi
Rooms n matter of indlfitircnco to him.
Ono Hits down before him. nips the
little cup ot black coffee Illicit with
thick grounds which the proprietor
furnishes , nnd looks at everything
ho does not want to buy. Incidentally
ho picks up what he wishes to purchase.
It is much ( ho safest and cheapest way.
The Jews form a largo proportion of the
inhabitants of Tunis and devote them
selves to tradonnd money-making. They
live in a quarter by themselves , though
their shap.s are to bo found in the Inisi-
ness part of the town with thnso of the
native Arabs. The women arc largo nnd
voluptuous in appearance , and in the
eyes of the Israelite beaux of Tunis by
as muoh as they are4 * fatter
are they moro beautiful. The feu
turey of tbeso Jnwus&os are often very
lamlsomo. ! Scon in their finely on the

Garment or sack , llus latter is of some
very bright color ami often beautifully
embossed in gold thread and varied-

A Coward's Monument.
Atlanta Constitution ; A monument to a
coward !
Yes , that Is It.
One of Sherman's men , who was so
well pleased when ho came hero about
twenty years ago that ho decided to lo
cate permanently , says that in Brown
county , Indiana , before the war , there
was a great bin , lubberly fellow named
John Crlttondon , who was regarded in
school as the biggest toward in the state.
Anybody could run over John Crltten-
don. When the war broke ont the cow
ard joined an aitillory company. At
llarlsville , Tenn. , Morgan's cavalry
charged the buttery to which John Crit-
cndun belonged , and when the order
was given to retraat the coward alone
stood by the guns , and whtlo in the act of
oading a sabre thrust ended his lifu. His
jody was seiH to his home nnd a great
funeral took pluro. The cowaid had become -
como the hero , and a monument was
