It will not be open to us to retire from the country and leave events to take their own course. This is the resolve of England and when it becomes neces- sary to seek the sanction of the other powers for result, the concert of Eu- rope will be envoked in a sense very different from that with which we have lately been familiar. GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS. A FRENCH MURDER CASE. Versainies, August 13 —The court here has sentenced to death Fenayron, a retired apothecary, who murdered his wife’s lover, another apotheoary, named Aubert, at Chaton. Fenay- ron's wife, at her husband’s instiga- tion, inveigled Aubert to visit her on the night of the murder. He was sentenced to penal servitade, for life, and Fenayron's brother Lucien, who aided him in the crime, to seven years servitude. The trial oxoited extra- ordinary interest, as the public prose- cution did not press for the extreme penalty in event of the jury consider- ing that Fenayron was actuated solely by jealousy. It appears the jury must have adopted the views favored by the prosecution, namely: that Aubert was murdered to prevent his OMAHA NEB.

Correspondence of Tirn Bax. Sionry, Neb., August 12— Sidney has assumed immense proportions sinco last I visited this section, and it surprised me greatly to note the progress and advancemert of this beautiful little town, situated 4,800 feet ahove the level of the sea, its oli mato is nature's swoetest, and in point of strength and invigoration it can- not be excolled, Many tourists and invalids make this a special stop- ping place to enjoy the luxurious at- mosphere and drink the “‘aqua pure” from the many valuable springs in this vicinity, While but a_short time ago it was the centre of an Indian country where daily raids were made upon the settlement, to-day it stands pre-eminent among the towns on the U. P, and its business men assidiously labored to give the city every in- dication of a promising future. They again the bad element that formerl- constituted the major portion of socie- ty and did &0 much toward deteriora tion has been thoroughly stamped, 80 that the reputation of Sidney as a model town is sustained. Nowhere can be found better or more enter— prising people, ready to do anything for the promotion of industry than those of western Nebra: The Plaindealer- aph, pub- lished here, is a spicy journal, ably managed by Wim. Strate and edited by J, W. Maddox, a young jonrnalist from New York, Their last week’s paper was the best that ever emanated from their ofice aud refloots great credit on tho gontlemen in charge. Its views aro liberal, ANOTHER MAMMOTH IMPROVEMENT here is the establishment of the head- quarters of the Kifth cavalry, com- manded by Col. C. E. Compton, an efficient officer and gentleman. The regimental band, consiating of thirty pieces, will arrive here mnext week from Fort Laramie and take its station at these barracks, 'This makes quite an acquisition to Sidney and a long needed necessity, About $15,000 has been appropriated by the departmunt commander for the enlargement of the post and building will begin in a short time. Another company of cavalry is expected soon, making this a five com- pany post. It is conceded that Sid- ney barracks are the prettiest in the department and Col. Compton, to- gether with his subordinate officers, deserve credit for its appearance. THE CATTLE INTERESTS are no small item to Sidney, and are largely increasing, many of the cattle men having added large herds to their present stock. The “‘round-ups” are over and the shipping season begun, Beoves are fat and hearty and the prices they bring in Chicago are an evadence of this fact, Among the wealthy stock men can be mentioned D. Sheedy, Tusler Bros, Bosler Bros , ‘Thos. Luwrenne, Coad Bros , Champion Mayfield, Col. Bron- son, 1. 8. Newman, Dave Hunter, Seth Mobry, Barnhart, Burns & Co., John M. Adams, I. H, Sparks, Thos, havo Kane, Prico & dJonks, K. s, Reid, Prate & Forris, Koolino Bros,, R. §. Vantassel, E. . Cowles and Creigh- ton & Co, These aro only a few of the most prominent whose herds have added much to the revenue of Chey- enne county. SHEEP RAISING is also becoming a profitable business, and Pole creck is flocked with many very large herds, The wool has sold at good prices, and sheep owners are encouraged at their future prospacts. Over 76,000 hesd have already been contracted for delivery next month, Among the county officers whom I met were J. J, Mclntosh, whose ef- ficiency has 8o often been commented upon by by his honor Judge Gaslin, of this cirenit. His books are kept and attractive. The county we, Julius Neubauer, is indeed a perfect gentleman, whose docisions are rendered with care and precision, and the dignited position he occupies mukes him a cordial, genial adviser and advocate, The covnty superin- tendent of schools, Joseph Oberfelder, has done excellent work, and does honor to the positivn he was chosen to ocoupy. Heinforms me thatthe schools will roopen September 4th, Jobn W, Haas, o stauch republican, is postmas. ter, assisted by William Cartright, T noticed them distributing Tue Ber to-day and found Tue Bee had ten subscribers to one of any of the other Omaha papers. This proves Tue Bre is the accepted paper of che people of Nebraska. Iu passing to THE MERCHANTS OF BIDNEY I found the house of James Suther- land & Co. doing the largest grocery trade, These men also conduct the forwarding and freighting business from hero to the agencies and the Black Hills, Among the lesser grocers who do a good trale are Aug, Grannes man and Ed, McLernon. Next comes the clothing trade, and in that line I must say one can find goods equal, 1f not better in stock here than in much larger cities, Ober- fielder Brothers do the leading busi- ness in this line, haviog been the firs! to start a regular clothing house 1n town, Bob & Joe are both pushers and energetic business men. Their courteous treatment to everybody wins for them the esteem of a confid ing blie. hotols are doing well, the Met ropolitan feeding from one hundred to two hundrod persons at a meal The Lockwood and the Rumsey house also thrive, the former under the managoment of Ed. Countryman, the lattor by Henry Rumsey. Thero are sixtoen licensed saloons here, and all seem to exist, among whom J. Rubel & Co. do a large out- side wholosalo trade. By an agree- ment with the county commissioners, tho saloons pay €160 & year for liconses. 1Tt is botter thus, as ic helps to swell the school fund. There are fow people here who favor prohibition, and those who do can be seen slipping around the back alleys and standing the bar-keepers off for a drink, Such men are an uisance, and we are fast getting rid of them. NOTES, The tragic death of William Aust, of Omaha, in the sand hills near Snake creed, 72 miles north of here, was a sad affair indecd. His remains are now interred in your oity, and so we lot the subject drop, as much has already been said. Vie, Bierbower is mentioned asa possible candidate for the attorney generalship of Nebraska.

Star Router. The Turpin of Thieves Preaches Pro- priety to the Dead President. WasuiNoron, August 12.—The Sun day Gazette in an article attacking the prosecusion in the pendirg star route cases, and more particularly ex- Attornoy General Mac Veigh, publishes a lotter over the signature of ex-Sena- tor S, W, Dorsey to President Gar- field, in which'it professes to find the animus of the atar route prosecution. The editor of The Gazette, Richard Hinton, was in charge of compilation of documenta for distribution through the republican national campaign com- mittee of 1880, under the supervision of Senator Dorsey. 1In his artlcle he says he had in his poss n a large number of letters from various sources, one of which he selscted for publica- tion. The following is the letter: New Yorx, July 7, 1881, Dear Generan:—Ool. Geo. Bliss called on me recently and introduced a Mr. Knox, who said he was a olass- mate of yours at Williams college, and further stated that he was about leaving for Mentor to visit you at your request, to dis- cuss the question of the proper erson to place in your cabinet from ew York. It cannot be possible {ou would call upon Mr. Bliss, much less upon Mr. Knox, to give advice re- specting so important a question to* you and to the people cof this state. Both of these gentlemen may be hon- est, true and respectable. So far as I know they are, but Bliss and Knox do not represent the people, or leaders of the people of New York, no more than I ropresent tho king of Siam. All such advice as this is pretencious idiocy, and if you are occupying your time in listening to men like these, T wish to express in the most emphatic way that you and your administration will prove a lamentable failure. You should take the bit in your teeth and decide for yourself what you want in your cabinet. What do you want of the advice of men, every one of whom has an axe to grind and a scheme to ush? 1f you want advice in New %urk, who don’t you send for Conk- ling or Arthur, two men who elected you with the uid of Grant? Why don’t you consult with somebody who has the status of name and a fullowins in New York? Now I tell you—an I tell you without a grain of selfish- ness—that you cannot afford to have any friction arise between yourself and Oonkling and General Arthur. Whenever you determine to assail these ‘men you drive the last nail in your political coffin. ¥ou cannot ignore them to make peace with Curtis, ayne MacVeagh and others of their class. You cannot disband an army to get recruits, We now have a great, well organized, active and aggressive &t you want to muster out army in order to pick up the sneaks, bummers anl deserters in the rear, go ahead, and I predict you will land in a sur- rendered camp, % am _tired of this blathering talk about MacVeagh to go into the cabinet from Pennsyl- yania and James from New York, Such a detestable set should besmoked out at once, and you ought to do 1t in some public way. As I have re- peatedly urged upon you, there is but one appolutment you ought to make from New York,and that is Chief Judge Folger, to be secretary of the treasury. You don't need any Bliss or Knox to ascertain or to prove his character, capacity and standing in New York. Running for chief judge ou the same ticket with you, he re- ceived more than double the majority youdidj Now take my advice about this, and I ask you to do that because you know I haveno earthly interest except to see & successful and honora- ble admintstration, and my advice is this: When you get ready to select a citizen of New York for your cabi- net, send for Senator Conkling, Gen, Arthur, Gov. Cornell. J. D. Warren of Buffalo, ex-Gov. Morgan and Thomas C. Platt, and men of that class, and got their best judgment. Bliss and Knox! What nonsense, beg you not to permit Knox to run around vhis state inquiring about men fittest for the cabinet and pretending to repre- sent you, By acts of this kind you injure yourself and cast an unpardon- able reflection upon men who ean and ought to be the best judges, and who represent the republicans of this state. I don't want to be put in the position of being obliged to lecture the presi- dent-gleet, and especially in regard to the formation of his cabiuet. You have repeatedly urged me to tell you whenever I should think you were {uinu wrong. I write you when think you are about to make a mistake, and I have not and shall not mince words in pointing out your errors, Youw drop all this stuff about Conkling, He don't want to fight you or any one else.
