Kansas will have a special ses- sion of the Legislature on the 15th, for the purpose of devising means of relief of those whose crops have been destroyed by grasshoppers. TimE was when the appointment of Haseall on a committee would have set the Republican cauldron & boiling. Since that famous postal speech, however, his sins have been forgiven, and lus election (?) by a self-authorized commitiee to repre- sent this county in a district con- vention is anuounced by that sheet with the utmost equanimity. At a scientific parliament of the most famous scientists of Great Britain on August 19th, at Belfast, Professor John Tyndall was elected president. This gentleman, though descend- ed from an English family, is an Irishman. From early childhood he has devoted himself exclusively to science, and his many works up- on the various branches of scientific philosophy have made him one of the most famous scientists of the age. —— Tue New York Herald discusses at length the improbability of Mar- shal Bazaine’s escpe by means of a large 80 foot rope and ring, without any accomplice, and eon- demn him for using officers as ac- complices who violated their duty because they were led to do 8o by his influence. This kind of eriticism is certainly absurd when applied to a man who ‘was condemned to imprisonment for life. Nec man lives, who undersim- ilar circumstances, would not have made every possible effort toescape, and certainly he is not to blame for hhis success. Tax New York Herald publishes tae following excuse for using what many delicate and sensative Chris tians sometimes consider highly im- proper indulgence in profane litera~ ture: W would apologize for spelling the noun_‘“hell” in full instead of givingitdelicately, as “h—IL” But as it is considered ‘proper for Chris- tians to say “hell” we do not know why we should not print it “hell.” The new Christian vocabulary at Plymouth might even justify the members in & new conjugation of the verb “to damn.” Thus:— 1 damn. We dnmn Moulton. Thou damnest. You damn Moufton. Moulton is damned. Moulton damns us. Altogether these words seem to be getting quite popular in Brooklyn. The third annual fair of Burt county, under the auspices of the County Agricultural Society, will heid on the 23d, 24th, and 25th of September at Tckamah. We have before us the circular issned by their committee. This indicates that the society, in the past year, has managed to clear up debts for all necessary buildings, and con- clude with the following appeal: «Let every farmer in Burt county contribute something. If you haye a nice horse, colt, calf, sheep, pig, chicken, good wheat, corn, potatoes, anything that will show the produc- tions of our county, bring it along and let us make our Third Annual Falx a greater success than any heretofore.” — HOME CHARITY. The call for relief to citizens of Howard county who have been rendered destitute by the sudden destruction of their crop by grasshoppers is one which we hope will be promptly met by our citizens. ‘When the Chicago fire rendered thousands of people dJestitute and homeless, and the scourge of yel- Jow fever decimated the families by hundreds in Shreveport, Memphis and other cities, the citizens of Omaha were among the first to forward relie. Now that hundreds of families in our own State are in sad need of relief, ‘we hope that our citizens will not hesitate to assist them, and we sug- gest that some active citizens like Mr. Anderson and others of the U. P. saops devise a somewhat similar as that inaugurated by them A DESERVING COMPLIMENT. The unanimity with which the | State Republican Convention, num- | bering 269 members, renominated | Congressman Crounse for & second | | term, is an endorsement which can- not fail being a sourcz of pride to himself, a gratification to his friends and an honor to the party. It tends to exhibit, in no small degree, the warm appreciation by the masses of the services of an honest and faith- ful official. Although in the past two years very important measures were under consideration in Con- gress, the Democratic press of this State has failed to find fault with any act of our Representative, and the inference is that they had no occasion to doso. Inall the struggles when | our State interests came in antago- | nism to those of others, Represeta- tive Crounse labored hard and faith- fully in behalf of his own constitu- ency, ond the _citizens of Omaha, | particularly, have had occasion to applaud his earnest efforts in their behalf. Especially was that the case toward the close of the last session. To those who have only | resided in Nebraska within the past two years, we will say in reference to Mr. Creunse’s past history that he resided in New York until 1865. During the war he wasin active army Service, and was disabled by wounds in 1862, from which time he practiced law in his native State until hisarrival here, He has served this State in the Legislature, in the fall of 1865, and was electea Associate Justice on the supreme bench in 1866. Through- out his entire course of public ser- vice in this State, his reputation for honesty, candor and integrity, has never been assailed or questioned. The only fault the Democracy can find with him is that he isa staunch Republican. His election is a fore- gone conclusion. — THE WAR OF RACES. The present troubles in Texas, Louisiana and other Southern States between the colored people and white settlers seems to be consid- ered by many Democratic journals as partaking exclusively of a parti- zan nature, and as the blame, by & large portion of the Demogratic press, seems to be thrown at the door of the Republican administra- tion we are glad to see a few leading Democratic journals take a somes what more sensible view of the matter. The following, from the Missouri Republican, the leading Democratic journal of Missouri, also meets the warm endorsement of the Chicago Times. Wergcommend its careful perusal to the Omaha Her- ald: “Without considering at present the blunders of national policy that have produced this deplorable rela- tion between the whites and lacks, it is too evident that the whites are committing excesses which cannot be defended. We are told that the riotous behavior and threats of the negroes produce these conflicts ; but even if this be true, in every in- stance, it does mot warrant the butchery of negroes in which they almost invariably end, nor will it avert the violent reaction of north- ern opinion and feeling which these massacres will inevitably produce. We can tell the southern people that these conflicts, if net suppressed, will re-radicalize the north, give the republican party a new lease of pow- er, defeat the democracy in every northern state, insure the enactment of the civil rights bill, and provoke from congress a harsher supplemenc of reconstruction than has yet been witnessed. The people of the south have exhibited much patience ana forbearance under the sufferings of the last nine years ; it would be an incaleulable ‘misfortune if they should now lose all the moral power which this patience has given them by an unjustifiable war upon the blacks.” Wedlip the following from the correspondence of the St. Joe Her- ald. Tt contains some suggestions which to us seem worthy of consid- eration by many of our new immi- grants, and may, if acted upon, prove profitable: Many men come from the East with the idea that o man can farm profitably in_these States without any previous knowledge of the busi- ness; they go to work the first year to raise corn, and if that crop ails they have nothing whatever to fall back on. Then they curse the coun- try, go back_and tell all kinds of stories regarding the terrors of this Western country. Other men who understand the business, depend en- tirely on corn for feed, although they are well aware that of all the crops raiced in this country this is the least certain. Small grain rare- Iy, if ever, fails, and yet the major- ity of the farmers do not raiss any. A field of barley is almost a curiosity, oats are raised only in small quantities, while rye and flax appear to be shunned by nineteen farmers out of twenty. \Why should this be? It isan acknowledged fact that corn is ot as good for feed for horses as oats, neither will it equal mangel- wurtzle, turnips, or other roots as feed for cattle or sbeep; and hogs will fatten quicker when fed barley meal than when fed-corn. In Eng- Jand corn is not fed at all, and yet the beef, mutton and hog meat pro- duced in that country canmot be equalled in this. Is it not possible to drop the prejudice to English customs, and foliow the example of English’ farmers in this respect? Let the homesteaders of Kansasand and Nebraska consider this subject, and in future seasons not place all their dependence on their corn erop, which, when successful, is noc as profitable to ruise as small grain. Germany. The recent Gierman census £nows that the non-German inhabitants of the Empire number 3,240,000, or 8 per cent. ‘They consist of 220,000 French-speaking people in Alsace- Lorraine, 10,000 French and Wal- loons in the Rhine Provinces. 2,- 450,000 Poles, 150,000 Lith 150,000 Danes in North Schleswig, 88,000 Wends in Brandenburg and Rilesia and 52,000 in Saxony, 50,090 Moravians and Czechs in Silesia, ‘and 80,000 foreigners. The Protest- ant elergy number 16,000. while the Roman Catholics have 20,000 priests, 800 monasteries and convents, five Bishopricks, twenty Archbishop- Ticks, and three Viears Apostolic. Of the twenty-one universities, Ber- lin heads the list with 3,578 stu- dents, Leipsic standing next- with THE NEW OPHiR. Among the Black Hills. The Opicion of an Associated Press Agent that Custer ‘Would Fight. Gold in Unlimited Quantities. (3pecial Dispatch to the St. Louis Democrat.) BISMARCK, D. T., August 31. Custer's expedition returned to Fort Lincoln last evening, having marched in fifty-nine days over 900 miles, keeping within the Black Hills twenty-six days and traveling in valleys 300 miles in extent. Tne Running Water Region, where the Indians report nuggetslying around loose, and the Big Horn Region, | known to abound in _gold, were not explored for lack of time. The marches were rapid and halts brief, preventing exhaustive research, and yet gold was found in almost unlim- ited quantities in Custer’s Park, | seven miles south of Harney's Peak, where twenty of the boys took gold clainuis. There gold was found at the grass roots to the extent of five cents to the pan, increasing in amount until at the depth of eight feet the yield was twenty cents to the pan.. With every mining facili- ty, the miners estimate that from $25 to $100 per single man can be taken out in this gulch. Gold was found in paying quantities at many points; also solid silver plumbago bed, inexhaustible. ~The country is so rich in external beauty | and so vroductive, that it is_well styled a paradise as well as an Eldo- rado. The Black Hills are held to be sacred grounds by the Indians, the hunting grounds of the Gr Spirit, and ale n oceupted by them, and seldom ted by them. There is in the whole extent of the Hills not a single human habitant by the hostile tribes who are located west and north, will not molest,and itis believed there are mot troops enough in the department to stop the rush of infatuated gold-hunters who will seek the hills from every quarter. Think of a few hundred men trying a line of miles in extent, impatiént, almost desperate, on one side, and gold on the other. It can not be done. The distance from Bismarck to the mines is 200 miles. No hostile Indians were seen on the entire trip, though Custer went 75 miles out of his road to strike a point where the whole Sioux nation was said to be acting for them. They had burned hundreds of miles in extent, apparently destroying the grazing; that was all the harm done. ‘West of the hilis where the buffalo range, they are never even visited by the Indians at the Red Cloud, and Whetstone and Grand River Agencies feel that the Great Father has not kept faith with them in al- lowing the white man to enter this region, but they will only protest, trusting the government to do them justice. The eountry north of the hills and west of Bismarck is neu- tral grounds and Indians are rarely ever seen upon it, though it is crossed oceasionally by war parties of the Sioux, seeking to strade their old enemy, the Rees, at Berthold, or by the latter on the war-path against the Sioux. The explorers are ready to lead an expedition from Bismarck to the Black Hills, if satis- fied that othe government will buy them; from the Little Missouri to Fort Lincoln, Stanley’s trail was followed, finding good marching, good water and abundance of wood, arriving at Lincoln one day ahead of them, though making forced marches the last few days, as the forage was exhausted and rations short.

Yesterday morning a man named John Kelley was taken to the third precinet station bouse in an insensi- ble condition. He was found in a freight car by some tramps who en- tered the car at Schenectady Sun- day night far the purpose of steuling a ride (o this city. They heard the groans of an apparently dying man, and at first were alarmed, but on in- | vestigation Kelly was discovered, One of the tramps poured some liquor down Kelly’s throat, and on the arrival of the train at West Al bany they procured a couple of sandwiches for him. These he de- | voured rapidly. He was helped from the car, when 1t was found that he ould not walk, for he fell to the earth insensible. He was picked up and placed on | a car and brought to the station | house, as stated, from which he was carried on a stretcher to St. Peter's Hospital. Under the eare of Dr. Hart ho was speedily restored to consciousness. On _being ques- tioned, he related substantially the following story as to how he came in the position found ; My nome is John Kelly, and Tam now twenty-three years of age. Three years ago I enlisted in the regulararmy and was assigned to the Second Cavalry, from which I was discharged about four weeks ago. The regiment was then sta- tioned at Camp Douglas, in Utah. From there I went to Omaha, and, unfortunately, got in with a rough erowd—and it'sa pretty rough place. Istayed about there drinking and gambling until all my money (about saoo? was gone, then I thought I would try and reach home in Phila- delphia. I started ard made my way to Davenport, Towa, stealing a ride when I could and walking the rest of the way. I arrived &t Da- venport last Wednesday, and could get nothing to do or to eat. Early on Thursday morning I en- tered the car in which I was found before it was locked up, having noticed the day before that it was bound east. I secreted myself in the oats, and soon after, the _cars started the dust from the oats, owing to the motion of the car, soon filled my eyes,noseand mouth, 80 that I could not breathe. While confined in the car I made two at- tempts to open the door, but was un- able to do so. T became insensible; knew nothing more until last night, when I was aroused by a racket outside the car, and soon after the door opened and three or four fel- lows eutered. They were makinga noise anc. I endeavored ta tell them to stop, when they discovered and dragged me out of the oats. I had nothing to eat or drink from Wed- nesday noon until this morning, when the fellows who came in_the car gave me some thing. My folks all live in Philadelphia, and my father s proprietor of the New York House, near the Pennsylvania Cen- tral depot. Kelly, who appears to be a stout, athletic young man,seemed a while later but little the worse for this ter- rible ride of a thousand miles, and will undoubtedly recover, although cousiderable care must be taken. But for his opportune discovery by the tramps, he would have contin- ued on to New York, and in all probability would have 'been taken out dead, as he could not have sur- vived many hours longer in the condition in which he was found. All the food he ate on Wednesday before starting from Davenport was two pears. The walk from Omaha to Davenport was about three hun- dred miles, making in_all about one thousand three hundred miles he has traveled since he left Omaha three weeks ago. Kiver Water 1n England. The condition ot some of the wat- er of some of the rivers in this country, suys the Pall Mall Gazette, is now’ so horrible that those that fail into them run the risk, ‘not so much of being drowned as of being poisoned. This was the case with an unfortunate man on whose hody an inquest was held by the coroner at Saltord. It seems the deceased fell into the Irwell while looking at the réwea, and, according to the medical evidence, the cause of his death was foulness of the water. He had been in the river about ten minutes when he was helped out, but died in forty-elght hours, He was, it is stated, a teetotaller, and, probably being accustomed to drink pure water, the filthy liquor he im- bibed in the Irwell fold upon him with double severity. His medical attendant, after detailing the ail- ments trom which the deceased had died,and which were caused, hesaid, by ' immersion in th& water, mentioned that many of his witness') patients were suffering m illness caused by inhaling the noxious gases of the river while they watched the regatta crews practicing. The jury rendered a verdict of accidental death; but death under snch circum- stances can hardly be called an accident. It is a positive cestainty that any person who even strolis on the banks of the Irwell in- currs the danger of death by disease, while those who fall into what are termed its “waters” might as well plunge into a bath of prussic acid. This is a distressing state of affairs to any but those who contemplate suicide, and who, of course, delight in the’ double deadlness’of this filthy river. There will also be considerable amusement in intem- perate circles at this additional proof—if, indeed, any were needed —of the dangers to which water- driukers are exposed; nor can there be any doubt that many persons BANKING.
