The BEE has no desire to mi present anybody’s motives, and we there- fore cheerfully retract so far as Mr. Greene is concerned. WE unders: . Yost has secured an affidavit from Mr. James M. Pattee cert never paid him any hush money, directly or indirectly. Now, inas- much as the charges preferred against Mr. Yost do not embrace this supposed transaction, why is this cerdficate asked for, even in ad- vance of an investigation ? 17 is reported that au effort is on | foot to divide the State of Ne- braska, the cne to be called North | Platte, with capital at Fremont; and the other Nebraska,with & eapi- tal at Beatrice. They would have a population of 86,000 and 140,000 yospectively.— Virginia City (Nev.) Enteprise. That scheme evidently origina- ted in the fertile brain of some | Ko-op chieftain. The idea of creat- ing two State capitals, and two sets of State officials, is a capital one. ACCORDING to the Washington Chronicle, it was the late General W. 8. Hillyer, who, on the last day of the siege at Fort Dounelson, at General Grant's dietation, penned the memorable and historic dis- patch: “I propose immediately to move on your works.” { U. 8. GranT. | He then, in person, delivered it to General Buckner, who was in command, Floyd having, during that night, “silently folded his | tents, and, like the Arabs, stole away.” —— YOST AND FURAY. The St. Louis Democrat of July 20 contaias the following telegram : OxA1A, Neb., July 18, The EVENING BEE contains an | article stating that serious charges | have been preferred against Post- | master Yost and Special Agent | Furay, and that an officer has been sent fo investigate the matter. Itis thought the BEE, out of animosity | to Mr. Yost, has exaggerated, and that both gentlemen will be ac- quitted. This felegram was evidently transmitted in the interest of Yost | and Furay, who thus seek to evade | | the just responsibility for their offi- cial corruption. Their suicidal course compels us to prove first that the BeE's animosity had nothiug what- ever to do with the charges against | them; and second, that the BEE, i stead of exaggeration, has put their case before the public in its very mildest form. The charges are preferred by Mr. Bye, & railway postal clerk, who has been in the service for a num- ber of years.

We have | it from st least a half dozen wits nesses that 2 branch postoffice was for many months located in Cald- well Block, for the special accom- dation of Mr. James M. Pattee's lottery. | In other words, Mr. Pattee was supplied with mail bags, and he ex- ercised the privilege of cancelling | the stamps upon millions of lottery | circulars, which, after being prop- | erly labeled to the various postoffices, were forwarded direct from the | Omaha postoffice without rehand- | ling. This was doubtless & labor and money saving arrangement for Mr. | Pattee, but where was the Govern- ment, aud where, oh where, Was | Mr. Furnay about that time? Why did he not detect a swindle that was generally known to Pattee's em- ployees, and even to some outsid- ers, We are informed ten sacks of lot- tery prepared and lottery stamped mail were forwarded out of Omaha in one day, and where was postmas- | ter Yost about that time?

(Correspondence of the BEx ) Urica, SEwWARD Co., Neb‘,} July 20, 1874. EDITOR OMAHA BEE: This location is nearly settled. But a few years ago it was among the wilds of Nebraska, notwith- standing the land is as good as any in the State, which now has many new and valuable farms. The wheat will be as good as any in the country, and corn rather flattering for this year. Vegetables, like in many other locations, not very good. The western part of Seward coun- ty has probably settled as rapidly as any other portion of the State, aud with such people as are wanted in our new State. This locality had much railroad land last winter, but now it is all taken up. Utica is about thirteen miles from Seward, and fourteen from York, on Raiiroad, and is surrounded by as fine farming lands as can be found in the country. Should there be a railroad built from Seward to Grand Island, via York, it wilt doubtless be one of the stations, as the coun- try sround demsnds it; besides, some as good railroad men as-are in the_country, own land in the im- mediate vicinity. Honor to whom honor is due. mers in the county who farm for profit, and because they like it, Is Mr. Thomas Harris, near this place. Notwithstanding lie is a new set- tler on new land, he has the model farm of the county. There is many locations as good, and probably bei- ter, for a nice farm, but *here is gys- tem in every departruent, and all his efforts prosper. His small grain is very good for this year, and his corn excels any in the country, as well as his vines, new hedge, young thrifty orchard, and smail fruits. Mr. Harris takes time and interest in his work and will not leave any thing until it is finished ; no waste land is to be seen on his’ premises, and nothing about him without it is useful. He has spent his younger days in the west, and by close ob- servation, now. practices economy and makes home pleasant. The great fault of many of our farmers who undertake more than they can perform, they farm per attention to, and hence ne- glect that which wants the most atteation, consequently weeds take possession of their farm, aud onl,” & partial crop is raised, which is often disreputable to our State on account of the neglect of farms. It would be well for some of our Patrons of Husbandry to take more farm jour- nals, or pattern after some of the most successful farmers, who can be found in almost every locality. | Cape May thus far are Baltimoreans, | reached California, and the blood | HONEY FOR THE LADIES.

In order to keep & hired girl in Golden, Colorado, one must keep & horse abd buggy for her to attend Grange meetings, and a piano for recreation. A breach of promise case was recently tried in Londox, in which | 3 gentleman sued a lady, jury gave s verdict in his favor— damages half a cent. A story s going the rounds of a Iady who wears a bustle made of raiirond bonds. The husband of such a ereature certainly ought to be a pacific male. “I'm not in mouring,” said a | young lady frangly to & querist, | “ibut as the widows are getting all the offers nowadays, we poor girls have to resort to artifice.” Ladies are said to be the biggest thieves on the face of the globe—be- cause they steel their petticoats, bone their stays, crib their babies, and hook their dresses. In Boone, Towa, the young lacies of the period meander through the streets playtully kicking over dry goods boxes and punching one another’s hets off with their para- | sols. Blue silk is favorite dress at the seaside resorts. 1t is the most be- coming of all colors to light eyes and hair, and is appropriated by all | who have them. Ruffs forthe neck are constantly being increased in_size. It is now the custom to run wire in the ruffs for the neck, and distend it far back from the neck, but high up in the vicinity of the ears. “The elevation of women!” ex- claimed Tom Noddy, as he was dri- ving home from Ascot. “Aw—ifa fella wants to see—aw—women ele- vated, he should see ’em at the waces—aw—aftera good lunch.”— Punch. Ttis promised from Paris that our skirts will go out of style this fall. Polonaises, too, and afterwards that no skirts will have pouts. The trim- ming on skirts is to be around the | bottom and up the front breadth, and the basques are to have long tabs and ends. A Kalamazoo Judge went to o neighboring town to see 8 man and telegraphed to his wife: “Have found Garland; won't be home for a. week.”” When the dispatch came to her it read: *Have found girl; won’t be home for a week.” Here let us draw a veil. A somnambulistic youth at Los Angeles walked into a room ad- Joining his, where slept a young lady. She screamed, pater familias appeared suddenly, and the intru- der, who only had his night dress on, was hurled down a fiight of stairs by the angry parent. A silly bit of affectation among certain ladies at the seaside, is wearing the hair down the back for several hours after they have re- turaed from surf bathing. They say it dries it, but everybody knows they have quite another motive in wearing in that style, Everybody wears a high comb | this season, and the higher the more fasidonable. Black jet combs are the Intest_offering on_the altar of style, and these are hardly as be- coming us tortoise shell or amber, though they are as expensive as the one, and much more costly than the other. Bonnets are larger for summer wear than was anticipated, and rac- ing hats, rustics, and the like areall considerably increased in size over the spring styles. Valenciennes lace is greatly used on all kinds of hats, and since bonnets are hats, and hats are bonnets, it is used on every kind of head ornament, without regard to trifling ditferences of shape. Kate Mulvey and Ella Higgins, of Covington, two young ladies of | high reputation in a certain or un- certain circle of society, had a regu- lar prize fight in that city the other day, and fought sixteen rounds by the laws of the ring. The combat- ants retired with highly variegated eves, while their sole remaining garments were curtailed to the di- mensions of a small hand towel, and a very ragged one at that.—ZLouis- | vitte Courier Journat. | The latest style of arranging the | hair is the D’Artois. As exhibited [ here by hair-dressers, the style con- sists in 3 double plait of hair which hangs down the back, and is tied with a large bow ef ribbon. Itis the head dress of the elegantes of Louls XVL’s reign, now srranzed to suit more modern tastes. A bow is of black ribbon, and has a blue steel buckle in the center. A long, thick curl is oceasionally added to the tress. A Sau Francisco lady has just in- vented a new needle, which does not | look as_if they were going out of fashion after all. The improvement consists in having a needle without an eye for the thread, but with, in- stead, a hole bored longitudinally into the head, or large end, to the depth _of a quarter of an inch or thereabouts, which hole is arranged with a screw thread. The needle, it is said, will carry any kind of thread, and can be used for every | comment. | Inbor is to give it as great a real drops on his clammy brow; but, for- tunately, the sods man never lost his presence of mind, and while the husband threw in an_ extra dose of | “crusade,” his wife made a wry | face over ginger. She will never try | “crusade” again. — Burlington | Haukeye. | Depreciating their own Labor. | One of the strangest features of the labor question at present is the | number of strikers whichare brought | to the notice of the public. That workingmen should when so many of their number are out of employ- | ment, so frequently combine to de- mand a rise in wages, is, to say the least or it, somewhat singular. But upon this point we do not propose, in the present'article, to any ‘What we to speak about is the upon the actual value ing man’s ime and labor to his e ployers, and to the community in general. There are a great many working people who have an_idea that the | whole risein wages which has taken place in the past few years has been on account of combinations for that urpose. Not only do we consider this notion utterly incorrect, but we also belfeve that such combinations, | when carried to the extent which has of late years been common, tend, in the long run, to bring down | the wages of the laborer by dimil ishing the actual value of his ser. vices. We do not deny that there have been occasionally instances where employers have unduly sought to keep down wages, in which peaceable combination among those employed has been nothing more than a reasonable and judic- ious way of obtaining & fair price | for their work. At the same time, we are fully convinced that what has principally raised wages is the cireumstance that, by the introduc: tion of modern machinery and other inventions, the time of work- ing men is really, on an average, worth more than formerly, and that, consequently, the community can afford to pay more. One of the chief inquiries in re- gard to the value of most kinds of labor is, obyiously, the question how far it can be depended upon. A | farmer, for instance, when he em- | ploys men in_haying-time likes to have some little assurance that they are not going to cut his grass and | then leave it in the field to take | care of itself. This is but a single | illustration, and by no means an exaggerated one, of what is the case in the great majority of employ- ments. So far, indeed, s farmers are concerned, there is not often very much trouble in this way. But in mechanical employments, and | especially in the building trades, there has,—in this city, at any rate —as every one knows, been an im- mense amount of embarrass- ment created by men refusing to work just at the point where their quitting would cause the greatest | possible loss and inconvenience. It is very clear that for the damage thus occasioned somebody must pay. The strikers imagine that the cost comes principally out of the pockets of the master mechanics; so, per- naps, it does, for the time being, but employerssoon learn to calculate for this as they do for other contingen- cies. A master mason, for instance, looks upon the possibility of a strike as he does upon that of & rain. For the risk he thus incurs he practical- ly charges a certain amount. That amount is just so much increase of the difference he expects to realize between what he ex- pends and what he receives. Nomi~ nally he remurerates himself by de- manding additional rates for his contracts. In reality, a large part of the loss eventually comes upon the working men themselves. Itis their own property which they are thus damaging. It is their own skill and | lavor of which they are diminishing the value. They themselves, there- fore, will be sure to be, in the end, the principal sufferers, however, much trouble they may incidentally make for other people. But the direct influence of strikes, such as those of which we have of late years had so many, is not the only effect produced by them inlow- ering the real value of the working man’s time and labor. The number of young mechanics who,by talking and thinking about strikes when they ought to have been perfecting themselves in their trades, have im- paired their proficiency as work- men, exceedsall calculation. As those young men advance in years, and gradually take the places of those who preceded them, they by no means improve the general char- acter of those engaged in their va- rious employments for steadfastness and thoroughness. A young man whose great ambition is to be prom- ent in trades-unions, is not pec: linrly likely.to become a mechanic whose services will always be in de- mand on account of the perfect mauner in which he does his work. As a general rule, the best way for » man to get well paid for his value as he can. We are fully aware that there are some very i portant exceptions to this; for the most useful men are not always those that make the most money. But these exceptions are notsuch as need to be considered in the present connection. There is scarcely any class of individuals to whom the rule we have stated applies so uni- formly, and with so little need of qualification, as to laborers and Journeymen 1echanics. Their work —whatever may be said in regard to_that of some other emplcyments —is almost always of a kind in which excellence can hé readily seen and easily appreciated. V. Times. T— Repudiation.

Her timbers and canvas are rotten, her last voyage having_been made in the fifties.
