Judging from the lively criticlsm of Morrison’s senatorial campaign, we rather suspect that Horlzontal Bill will got a very cold reception at the White House, and will have very little to do wlth the distribution of offices. AnoNG the congratulatory dispatches received by Gen. Logan was the follow- ing from Senator Manderson: “My hearty corgratoletions, Your seat has been kept warm for you., With earnest welcome.” The diepatch will be appre- oisted when it is underatood that Senator Manderson has been cccupying Gen.

When Ballock was governor the state issued a large amount of bonds for Internal im- provements. In 1873 the atate repudi- ated theze bonds, on the grouni that Governor Bullock mleapplied the pro- ceeds of their sale. He was accordingly trled on the charges and acquittcd.

The state recently made & new 1ssue of bonds, but Henry Clews, the well-known banker, objects to having them listed at the New York stock ex- ohange. He certalnly has good grounds for his objection, as he holds a claim agalnst the state on account of its old bonds, amountieg to §4,000,000, which he can not get because the state can not be sued. Mr, Clews does not proposs to help Georgia to perpetrate another swin- dle on her creditors. It surikes us that the best thing Georgia can do is to re- trleva her honor and credit by paying her old bonds. It looks as if Dr. Miller, since his return to journalism, had commenced to weite for the Brk. Thero was o superlativeness, a gushing- ness, and a sameness about the “‘welcome” to Fadicott in the Beg and that in the Herald which forced one to believe that both effusive efforts had emanated from the same transcen- dental intellect, If Mr, Rosewater was the author of the Bee welcome, he certainly dis- played an aptitude which must be appreci- ated by his preceptor, the dootor, while he also advertised a versatility which only a journalist of the first water may be said to possess,—Republican, ture cannot be brought to support its|political disturbances, will probably mo action.

Gi course of which the old commander dic- tated his farowell message to the brave soldlers who fought under him to orush the rebellion, was had last Thursday by Lieut, A. T. Holbrook, of G. A. R. Post 68, Dorchester, Mass, Lieut, Holbrook called at the Grantmansion in company with Mr, A, Howard Walker, of Cincinnatl, who wished to present the general an album containlng the autc graphs of the first fifty subscrlbers to the Graut memorial to bo {ssued for the weat, The names included the leading cltizens of Cincinnati, among them the governor of Ohlo and four ex-governors, and the albam formed a sonvenir birthday gift, the slgnatures having been made on Gen, Grant’s 63d birthday. Lient. Holbrook 1s a delegate to the national encampment of the G. A. R. to bs held In Portland next June, and it is his wish to take from his old commander a message to the grand army men there gathered, Al- though the general was very weak at the time, he directed that his visitors be at once admitted. Lieut. Holbrook says: ““We found him sitting in kls arm.chair, He arose and received us cordislly. He exprosscd himself as greatly pleased at the tribute from his frlends in Cincinnati, and the tears of joy that scood in his eyes when he sald It left no room for doubt that he spoke fram his heatt, ‘The souvenlr 18 so beatfully concelved,” he said, ‘that I can not sufficlently exprees my pleasure at receiving it.’ When I told him of my wish to take a messege to the boys In blue, to be delivered to them at the encampment in Portland, Me., in June, he arose, took me by the hand and said: ‘Tell the beya that they will prob. ably never look into my face again, mnor hear my volce, but they are engraved upon my heart, and Ilove them as my children. What the good Lord bas spared me for is more than I can teil, but it is perbaps to finish up my book which I shall leave to the boys in blue, and in which they can not only etee me, but follow me in the acts in which they helped me.’ ““Holding my hand thus warmly, he walked across the room eeveral times with me, and asked me where I was in the army. I told him I was on the staff of Isaac Iogalls Stevens, Gen. Grant smiled very courtecusly, and seid: ‘Why, Gen. Stevens was achum of mine at West Point, and we used to call him the two-eyed Stevens, on account of the relteration of his imtlals. Gen. Stevens was foll of his storles when he was a young man, as well a3 considerable of a politician. I remember his say- ing that he went to @ col- ored church and heard the miniater give out his text as the twc-eyed chapter of the one-eyed John, and that it ko con- vulsed him that he was obliged 1o leave the building.” Gen. Grant also naid that Gen. Stevens and other West Pointere, snd aleo officials connected with the Mexican war, would bs epecially treated in his forthcoming vclumes, “Ag we were about to lcave, Gen.

The second volume was partly In his and partly not. Of course all his writing now is done by an amanuensis. Just before we left him, he epoke of his illness, He sald that |f the doctors hed mot lived there In the room—if they had been a block away or a heuse away, ho waa satlc- fied he would never have spoken again. He was convinced that there wasan over- raling Providence in the whole of his sicknese.

Portland Journal of Uommerce. The short visit pald us this week by afew of the leading manuf:cturers and merchants of the most important and en- terprlsing city of Nebraska, s of more than passing intereet. In the first place the bringlog together of widely removed communities, this annihilation of die- tance, is the direct result of the more agreeable and enlightening ufluences ex- erted by railroads. To us It revesls as nothing else can do, our no longer isola- ted commercial position, while to them it has been a revelation ¢f what pluck and encrgy can accomplish, and have accom- plished here, in spite of disadvaatages which they fortunately have never had to experlence, The clcser knowl- edge of each other's power and ability, which can only thus be acquired by per- sonal contact, must naturally be pro- ductive of great good to both, For, since communities cannot, avy more than individuals, llve and progress by them- selver, nothing binda them together and alds thelr progression more than the stronger sympathy which such acquaint- ance awakens. “‘All that is human,” says Gibbon, *‘must retrograde if it do not advance.” That we are advancing is most assuredly evinced by the fact that the visit of tnese gentlemen to our city, by the route, and in the time they came, would have been Impossible six months ago. In many other respects our visltors were exceedlngly welcome. Kirst among these 1s the possibllity unfolded by thelr advent of establishing mutually profitable commerclal relatlons between the two olties, Omaha and Portland ars of the same age, though the influences befo; named have glven our sister city a popu- lstion half as large again as ours has. With nearly the same Influences now at work here, {'ortlmd from this fact takes heart and confidently looks forwa:d to at least an equally rapld growth henceforth. Meanwhile the quicker march and pecu- liar geographleal position of Omaha have naturally given her some advantages which it has slready been demonstrated we can profit by uslng, Properly under- stood, the interests'of the two clties are not by sny means Infmical. The w that can be said is that on the divlding line of the tereltory the two citles now meet on an equsal rate bzsis, Indeed, the mer- chants of neither city have asked or ex- peoted more. On through business from elther terminus the rates to be estab- lished are equally reciprocal, and there- fore equslly satisfactory, Now let us conslderjthe directions in which it is poseible for business to be openedup, Omahals in the centre of a vast corn country, It ls, therefore, es- sentially a hog producing country, The settlement of the state snd the develop- ment of the one Industry have, of course, led to the development of jthe other, and Omaha s now numbered among the arge pork-packing oltles of the country, She has also stock.-yards, and both in dustrles at this time are being rapidly Inoreased by the intredaction of Boston capital to the extent of several million dollars. The intention ls to make it a boef-packing and meat-shipplrg polnt 150, Her other manufactures of more direct Intorest to wus, Include hats, gloves, mittens, barbed-wire, distilled goods, lead, white lead and shot. For most of these atticles we are at present dependent upon citles mueh farther away than Omaha; thus, qualities being equal, rates and timo are both in favor of doing business there. Another very potent reason for this diversion is that Omaha, like Barkls, s willing and anxious, in return, to take Iargely of Oregon produc's, *‘We want your cattle and horses,” sald one mer: chant interested in the stock yards, “‘in proof of which I bought a number from Upion county on my way over.” “‘Horses are scarce in Nobraska,” added another, ‘I need your barley,” said the diatiller, *‘for I find {t will cost me less than where I boy now in California.” “We would give a great deal to got regular supplies of fresh salmon, frult and vegetables = from you,” was urged npon us 'by many of these mer- chants, ‘‘Nebraska fs not a timbered country, hence your lumber is just what we need; cord wood sells In Omaha for §7 and $8,” others Informed us, Theso few illustrations are sufficlent to show clearly that both citles and statca must gain by endeavoring to fester business and study each other's wants, and that nothing could have conduced to the es- tablishment of such relations better than the vlalt to our conntry of themerchants of Omaha, to whom, when they left the olty the other day, we eald not ‘‘good- bye,” but ‘‘au revoir.” e ——— STATE JOITINGS, It costs $21 a year to run a roller rink in Springfield, Sarpy county.

But year by year, the weet becoming sottled up and the people devoting themselves to ralsing and breed- ing cattle, the ravge of the Texas cattle has become circumscribed, limited until now the question with the Texas cattle intereets 1s, how to get thelr cattle out cf Texas in any other way than by rall, two, “‘drlves” from Texas to Kaneas, Cclorado and Wyoming were open, but strict laws in Kensas, and quarsntive regulations In Colorado have virtually closed up these avenuer, aud eyen fur- ther south, In Texas, the northern part |on the yplanet than of Texas, efforts are belng made to “'close | allegiance to the church s given in no the drives” agalnst the herds from Mid- | hali-hearted dle and Sonthern Texas, the opposition to the iutroduction of [ unknown among them, Texes cattle range tle, Formerly, and to within a year or The reason of into over known, & country or cnlo a by other cat- Texas cattle grozed 1s well bring with them “Texas fever,” and sinoce Colorado, western Kansas and Ne- braska have been largely taken gp by Improved breeds of csttle, it is to the in. terosts of their owners to keop out Tex- as cattle, To this end, as we know, KKansas has opposed “‘the natlonal trall projeot,” and has enasted the strictest kind of quaran- tine laws agalnst Texas oattle, Lss Ani- mas and Bent countes, Col., have fol lowed suit, making a quarantine of nine- s necessary on the atrip of public lands north of the *‘Panhandls” of Tex- a8 before they oan by driven into Colora. do, And jnst here, or on theeo lands, and those through the ‘‘Panhandle,” comes In another objection.

COUSENS, NEW YORK. ————— BEEF BRAINS, They Are in Demand Just Now—How They Are Froduced, Chicago Tribune, ““There are the brainsof Colorado caitle just elaughtered and fresh,” said a gray- baired man to tho keepar of a restaurant on Madlson street yesterday. ‘‘I've sold all but this dozen, and you can have 'em for $2.” The restaurant-keeper showed a dispesition to purchase and asked the man to disclose hes wares, In a short time the brains were removed from a bucket add placed on a large platter. They were covercd with coagilated blood and looked anything but palatable, but the seller eald that a wash in warm water and salt would remove the objectlonable features and impart to the bralns a whole- some odor. He was given his prico snd was told that the restaurant was a ready markot for all sach vianda, “Yes the bratns of cattle ars a treat at this seazon of the year,” seid the caterer, “but we have difficulty in securing a supply. A great many people are in- fatoated with sweetbroscs, —eepectally those whose stomachs are of the weak sort, Now the brains of cattle are in greater demsand than sweetbreads, and when 1t becomes known that the dish can be secured here, epicures from all parts of the city will pay me a yisit. Moreover the dish is a nuiritious one, and when prepared by a French cook is fit for the goda, Yee, I'll sell those at 60 cents per (i AGSOIETS AND RI'LIABLE VAPOR STOVEE MADE.

Some of the butchers kill their cattle by stoving in thelr ekulls with a eledge hammer. Others shoot them through the bralne, and when cattle are killed that way the braius are unfit for focd. The blood coagulates there, and betides the bralns are smashed into & jelly. They have to bs {aken out whole aud handled carefully in order to dispose of them to customers.” The little man who makesa living by supplying restaurants with brains was seen, and he agreed with the caterer. He eaid: *‘Packers have no use for the bralns of cattle, and in fact, 1t is the only part of the heef that is not used. As a digh it in the finest in the retaurant line, butitis hard to get 'em. When the butcher severs the head from the body and removes the tongue, I take the head one side and with a chisel remove the front of the ekull, A couple of twlsts of a knife-blade remove the little cords and out it drops.
