The Birthday Anniversary of Scotia’s Bard, in Omaha, Which Like all Preceding Ones is a Grand Success. The Soo'ch-Americans of Omaba oclebrated the one hucdred sud twen- ty-second anniversary of the birfh of Robert Barnsin right, royel 1. .- sier at Masonio Hall last evening. At nine o'clock the Burns’ club and their guests, to the number of over two hundred, sat down to the banquet which was ou the programme, and which was & most clegant sffair. After the foast had been disposed of, the literary portion of the programme was procseded with. The first tosst was “The Memory of Baras,” which was responded to by Mr. John Wilson, who reviewed the lite and work of Burns and the good he had done for the world. He eald that Buros was not only Seotland poet, but he was the poet of homanity everywhere. Mr. Jay Northup rendered “Faie- well to the Land,” and boing enco gave “When the Ky Camos Hame. Mrs. Rogors sang “‘Cam’ yo by Atho),” in a manner to win the e approbation of the andience. Mr. David Knox resp nexttonst, “The Jand we left and the Land we live fn, happy vein, delivered a most excellent response. Mrs. Griffes's ““Robin was encored, snd she responded with “Yc Bavks and ye Braes.” In the ubsence of Mr. John Moodie, Mr. W' O. Sanders rendered “'Scots who ba'e wi' Wallaco Bled” his usual excellent manger. The next toast, *“The Press,” wes responded to by Mr. E. Rosewater, follows: in 2 to rospond Lo the toast sed, thongh profoundly 2 of the honor, my imi is to shritk from the execution of the task.

It was Robert Burne wio made the immortsl decluration that “‘mankind, whatever its associations, must stand upon the | platform of cne common humavity.” ““T'he rauk is but the guinex's siawp, A man’s a man for o' that. And, by the Burns” works I discover that Le would have made splendid obituary poet | for The Philadeiphia Ledger. One of his obituary poems reads aa follows: ““Here lies John Bushby, Lonest man, Cheat him, devil, if you can.” In the days of Rome and Greeco the gqreat orators wielded immense in- fiuence over the populace from the forum, and in later days, In our own country, Webster and Clay were wor- shiped as dami gode, who swayed the populace of America at their will. To- day the orstor has been superceded by the press. The most eloguent speeker can only reach five or ten thou- sand poople, whereas the press reaches millions, and the only way great Jumbles. Try them. 206 orators can make themselves felt is by the reproduction of their speaches through the press. The power of the press and its enterprise in utiliring all the inventions of the present age are best illustrated by the career of two great papers—The Lon- don Times and New York Herald. The London Times slone has repoatedly wrought the down fall of aud revo- of the British ewpire and twelve or thirteon, years ago a yoong man who was then liviog in Omaba 5sa represontative of the New York Herald, ivformed me that he hzd received o-dere to proceed to Central A on an exploring expe- dition.

An 01d Colleague’s Encomiuma on the New Wisconsin Senator, As is pretty generally known Mayor Chase is an old citizen of the Bedger State,and our tele- graphic despatches Weincsdsy bringing the news of the electisn of a United States senator in Wisconsin, our reporter asked the mayor, who was busily engaged in his office, if he kiew philetus Sawyér, the newly elected eonator from that state. “Yes sit. Iknow him well,” was thereply. “Mr. Sawyor wasin the houss of representatives in - Wisconsin in 1858, when I had the privilege of occupying e seat in the secale. ““We were both eleoted as investi- gators, to inverdigate the grest La- COrosse railroad land grant steal of three million dollars.

He has not the eloquence of tongue which hss givea Matt Carpenter such & national reputation, but he is an honest, honorable man who has made himself & millionaire by desling in lumber.

What the Representatives of Douglas Have Done in the Legislature. — A Glance at ths Merits of the Several Bills Introduced by Them. Bpecial Corresp>ndence of The Bee. Lixoowy, Neb., January 26.—Dur- ing the three weeks’ session thers have been eighty-three bills iniroduced in the house of represontatives, and only one or two passed by both houses. Of theso fow one was the bill providing for $30,000 for the payment of sala- rles of members and the expenses of the prescnt session. Many of thece bills are good ones, and are meds necessary by the actual demands of this growing state. But like that lit- tle flower which Mr. Grsy epoke cf, the greater part of them aze born to blush unseen, and wasto thelr fra grance on the descrt sir. I mean to speak in this letter of the efforts of the gentlemen from Douglas in this cause. The most im- portant bills introduced by our delega- tion are perhaps those of Mr. Broatch, one of which provines for the repeal of the law whereby the property of raflrond _corporations s exemptod from loo# taxation,and the other is a A memorial and joint resolution to congress, esking for construction of & Omaha. Tre vital impertance of tha passageol such g law caunot be oyer- estimated by the people of Douglis ond the state. The resolution reeds a8 follows: | Warceas, The greatly increaso tusiness demands of the country wee of the Missouririver, and the interest | of inter state commerce, i demand increased fac ing the Mlwonri river by bridges adapted for the we of railroad trains and wagons, and WHEREAS, The present facilities of the Union Pacific bridgo opposite Omshs, Neb., sre inadequate to meat the demsnds of travel, end the great traflic over the numcrous railronds having _their termini at Council Blafly, Tows, Therefore, your memorlslists, the legislature of the state of Ne braska, most respectfully urge upon the congress of the United States the passage of o bill securing a charter for building a railroadand wagon bridge at cr near Omaha in the state of Nebraska: Resolved, That the secrefary of stato beand Is hereby instructed “to trans- mit two certified copies of this memo- rial and joint resolutlon to each one of our senators avd members of con- grees without delay, who are hereby requested to use all means for the pas- sago of the same. Mr. Broatch also presented the fol- lowing bills : “Foran att granting consent of the state of Nebraska to the purchase or leaso by the United States of certain lands for the purposs of ercoting mil- itary store houses thereon. “‘For an act requiring a complisnce with the provieions of section 54 of an act ontitled “‘An act concerning counties aud county cfficers, Be it enacted by the leglslaturs of the atate of Nobras] 7 That when counties which were di- vided into districts prior to the pas- sage of an act entitled ‘‘an act con- cerning counties and county officers,” approved March. 1et, A. D. 1879, have not since been redirided, the same ehall, within sixty days after this act take effect, be redivided into d trlots, in accordance with the provis fons of section b4, of said act. For an aot for the publication of & compilation of the statutes, by the state librarian, within six monthe, the mle price of which s to be six dollars. be borne by the librarian. Mr. P. M. Mollen hss presented two bills which cannot fail to meet the approval of his dear constituen s. Ono of them, which Tue Bee pub- lished and commented on edizorially, provides for the prevention and pur ishment of the evasions of the ex- emption laws of the state. It I bill couceived solely for the protec tion of tradesmen and laboring men, whom Mr. Mullen claims to bo inter- ested in, The other billis for an act to remove the University of Nebraska to the clty of Omaha, provided that the citizens of Douglas county shall dovate to the state of Nebraska not less than ten (10) acres of land, and the eum of twenty-five (25,000) dollars, for the purpcse of erecting the necessary buildings there- on. Sec. 2 That the buildings at prea- ent occupied by the university, and belonging to tho state, be placed at the dispoeition o° the superintendent of the insane asylum for the accommo- dation and caro of the insane as now Dy Iaw provided for. Src. 3. An sppropriation of seven- ty-five thousand (75,000) doilars shall ba made for tbe purpose of erecting the necessary buildings. The gover- ner, state tressarer, and mayor of the city of Omana shall constitute & board for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of ihis act. Szc. 4. The buildings shall be ready for, and the removal of the ni- versity shall not be made later than July 1, 1882 Every good citizen of Douglas coun- #y can seo the consistency of this bill. Omsha being the chief city of the west, and a great railroad centre, alone make it the most desirable I tion for the state university. I might add that anotifer advsntage derived from moviug the Inatitation to Omaha would be the vigilant waich care which Grandmother Brocks would ex- ercise over it—and h's son-in-law. mr. Jackson’s bill to make the liquor license §1000 in all cities and towns, will meet the approval of all taxpayers, Mr. Paxton presented a bill to pro- vide for corporations not for pecuni- aty profit, the first section of which provides thac ‘‘Any number of per- sons may be sssociated and incorpo rated for the purpose of auy public charity, including public libraries, popular lectures, hospitals, churohes and schools,” Mr. Kyner prescnted s bill for an act to establish a military code for the state of Nebraska, gotten up in tho interest of the state militis, and em- bodsing many wite provisions.
