On the moment recelver Woolworth recelves Mr. Leonard’s $78,000, or satls- factory collateral to that amount as may be agreed upon, the Smith stock and entire fixtures (including the red carpet which covered the sidewalk in the days of Smith’'s arcondancy and tripped the unwary pedestrian ia ifs ingrain folds) becomes the propsrty cf Mr. Leonard— his to preserve or destroy at will. But the fellow who is to spend tho $78,000 s a dissovery to be made next year, probaby, if the courts operate fast enongh, When Mr. Woolworth receives the money, he must depoeit it to the best advantage, in some placs of securlty, the selaction of which s dependent upon the character of the funds It cash, onsof the two United States depositories here may be sslected, and if in paper securities, terms of loan af good interest msy bs effected with some banking concern of the ci'y. Meanwhile the clalmants will ablde the January term of the United States ofrcuit court when they will maet for what is to be hoped the last and declslve contest at law growingout of Loyal L, Smith’s roguery. The posscsiion of the money lies between Human Iowy & Co., and the uafortunates at home and abroad who trusted Smith tor varlous amounts prior to his excursion to the Dominlon, How- ever by a complication of ligation the cate will appesr as & euit in replevin with Mr, Co'e, the “0o” fn the Lowy firw, complaivant and D.

The issue of this causs will settle the ownership cf the proceeds of the sals to Leonard, unless through some legal accrobatics another turn can be taken, which ls never an fmpos:ibility.

A fow eveniugs since Mr. Clarkson entertained at his parlors Gen. Thayer, one of Ne- braska’s old land marks. The general had just retarned from trip to Wyom-— iog, and met J. T. C.at the train, who induced him to stop over. An hour had hardly passed bstore Gon. Thayer, J. T, Olarkson and several others had taken light wagons, and with flylog steeds, crossed Pole creek, south of town, and wore rapldly driven to the adjacent bluffs. What a slght was pressnted to tho oye of ocur dlstingulshcd friend can best be descrlbed in his own langu' g, dellvered the eams evening before tho agrembled maultitude that csmo to pay him homage. After three hours rmdlng they were driven back to the Raiiroad houso. Tn the meantime, Gen, Henry A. Morrow, commander of Fort Sldney, had been apprised of Gosernor Thayer's visit here. He notified the band to prepsre at once and march to the hotel. A grand serenade was the resalt. Mr. Clarkson sppeared upon tho balcony, and spoke foelingly of the pleasure and duty that devolved upon him, alto of his happy asoclations with ex-Governor Thayer, and then Intrcdaced his- d'stingalshea guest, the general who spoke n early oue hour. He could not help bat express surprise at the sgelcultural development of the country and was astcunded to ee3 the number of settlers that has filed upon the lands of Cheyenne county. His speech abounded with anecdotes of the earlior days when the Indlan and buffilo disputed the equatters’ rights, and a man who would have anticlpated such glorl- ous results of to-day would have been a fit subject for the Ineane asylum. His sentiments were polnted the admirable way in_which he handled his subjeot, ellcittd the heartiest app'ause from his large and attentive audience. Gen, H. A, Morrow was the next speaker, who pleassntly reminded the poople of a reminiscenca with Gen. Thayer when both had commsandof a brigade during the war. He also en- lightened his hearers with his knowledge of “farming” aud his expression of sur- prise of what he had eeen produced in this couniry, whick created a lasting im- pression upon him and made him feel that he had enterad one of God's sacred spots, where prcduction”was not an ex- periment but a positive fact.
