i 6 THE WEEKLY JOtWACEEE, APRIL 26,1882. NEBRASKA. 41 Correspondent Delig-hted with tbe Pore Atmosphere and Invigorating- Fratncik Pro. phetic Schemes. Special Correspondence Evening Wisconsin.

PAWNEE CUT, April 8, The regular down-east era who circulate around the "Hub," as water follows the turning grind-stone, speak of Wisconsin as being some half-civilized country, away.out west I judge from my own original ideas in the matter, when I say that many people in Wisconsin have a faint picture of Nebraska as some wild land over which the. hunter is still scouring for the buffalo and the antelope. Council Bluffs, across the river from Omaha, seems to be the entering wedge to Nebraska and is made of rough material. It takes some tune for a stranger to find Council Bluffs at all He sees a long stretch of buildings under some bluffs and finally-concludes that they are really Council Bluffs. When he gete upon the track of something that looks like a street he follows it for some distance and invariably brings up against a sand or clay bank, pock-marked by industrious swallows or martens.

Council Blufis is a dirty place and was properly punished a few weeks ago by a visitation of small-pox. Across the chocolate- colored Missouri river, over the magnificent bridge; through muddy, driving Oinaha, the stranger at last enters through the portals into one of the finest valleys in the the Platte Biver Valley. What a splendid wide stretch of land it rolling hills losing themselves in the distance on either baud! When I first opened my eyes to the scene, I made up my mind that I never wanted to get back into any country where one cannot in- his lungs without touching somebody. And those: terrible: breezes are bng-a-boos! They are bad sometimes, when they tear up trees and carry houses out of sight; but take them on an they come sweeping down the great valleys of Nebraska, why, anybody with a drop of warm blood left in him will be invigorated, will be filled with buoyancy, and will never want to back where there are no such breezes. But this country is no place for 'invalids, and feuder-bodied people should not come out here under the impression that they will enjoy themselves, for the won't- Anyone in" good health will be pleased with the climate and with the cordial ways of the peoplp.

You don't have to wait for an introduction to anybody, but, if introduced yon are at once received wifli open arms and put down for just what you are. worth. With due respect for Milwaukee and all other places in the east, I find that this trait of Nebraska people is drawing more settlers into the country than its fertile lands. There is no lack of the best kind of society without any encumbrance of conventionality. When got beyond Columbus, on tie Union Pacific road, I occasionally saw a cow-boy, with his wide-brimmed hat, sometimes decorated with a gold band, but I have yet to hear of a single stranger, even further west in the sand-hill country of this state, who was molested when minding his own business.

The first place at which I stopped, Fremont, Dodge County, is one of the busiest cities in Nebraska. It is reaching briskly after a 5,001) population, and has dozens of wide-awake business men. And right here I would like to correct a very serious mistake which eastern people of ten make in coming to the west They have an idea (and I have had many admit-it who now thoroughly disabused) that business and professional gentlemen in this part of the world are of the "small potatoe order." But here yon will meet some of the clearest the sharpest minds, the best muscle, the best brain to be found in the country. Many of the inhabitants are eastern people of the best and hardiest Credit Foncicr. The next decisive evidence of his forecast ie found in Columbus.

By a long and patient process of surveying and investigation he came to the conclusion that Columbus was the exact geographical center of the United States. His idea was remove the national capital from Washington to Columbus. So he built a hotel there (hi 1869) and set apart a room therein for the President of the United States, and another for the president of the Union Pacific Railroad. Of course, his little scheme never came to-anything; for it was fifty years ahead of time. The center of population is moving so rapidly westward that there are many now Irving who Vfll see some such suggestion carried out as agitated the mind of George Francis Train, nearly a quarter of.

a century ago. The exact locality may not be Columbus, Neb but it may be thereabouts. George is feeding sparrow birds in Union Square, New York, and he is somewhat of a prophet. If he had half as much patience as he had foresight, he would be one of the wealthiest men in America to-day. H.

Hunt has received a dispatch from Hoffman, charge d'affaires at St. Petersburg, under date of March 31st, enclosing a letter Engineer Melville, dated January 31st and written at a point on bis way to the mouth of the Lena, 333 miles beyond Yakutsck. Hoffman states: The governor of this port appears to have shown much good will in sending your orders of January 14th to Melville as Estafette has been ordered and paid for to Ya- kuteek, only the speed with which it went through is quite remarkable. Lieut. Danenhotrer telegraphs me under date of January 28th from Rrasmojorok about 4,600 versts from St.

Petersburg, that he may be expected here about April 20th. Chief Engineer Melville in the letter referred to says he has every reason to hope for the finding of De Long and his people." WASHrNGTON, April upon the last advices received from the Arctic regions with reference to the Jeannette party, Mr. George Kennan, the Siberian traveler, remarked to a correspondent that he believed De Long and his companions were dead. Said he: If De Long and his party were alive, I think we should have heard of them before this. If they had been found by the 25th of February, the news would have reached us by 'this time.

When the two sailors left them, yon will remember, that was away back in October, just as Arctic streams begin to sweep down on that coast, and things move toward the interior to escape their fury; along the exposed coast The party landed just too late. If they had been but two or three weeks sooner they could have passed up the Lena in their boats, but the ice was just beginning to form over the stream, and they had to make their way southward on foot It was just at that season when the reindeer were leaving- for the south in search of shelter from the storms and more abundant food. In some of. the records found they spoke of having killed some game, but it was probably about the last reindeer, left along the coast which they killed after they landed. The ability to subsist to be co-operating, are still pushing the They procured a warrant from the United States commissioner at Milwaukee for the arrest of Brown on the charge of using the United States mail with the intent to defraud, their intention being to have the defendant taken before the courts of Wisconsin.

-A marshal came on here this week and had the warrant indorsed by Judge Edgerton, who, however, insisted that Brown should have an opportunity to apply for a writ ot habeas corpus it hesodesired. A day or two ago the marshal went to Scotland, where he learned that Brown then at Springfield, but lie was expected home on the evening train. The marshal concluded to drive to Tyndall, fourteen miles, and there meet Brown and make the arrest, and probably take Brown east on the same train. This was. a sharp game, but it proved too tame for Dakota, a BADGER GOSSIP.

It is said the Wisconsin people are determined to get Brown if such a feat is 'within the limits of possibility.

GENERAL ITEMS. ABCHBISHOP HANNAN died at Halifax, N. on the 17th inst. stock. If you expect to walk over them, in vulgar terms, "yon will get left." Everyone is busy out this way.

Cattle and corn are the salvation of the conn- try, but the possibilities of the soil are simply incalculable. In the two eastern tiers of counties considerable success attends even the cultivation of fruit; grapes are doing finely. A prediction is often mode that when the land has been more protected from the sweeping winds by the planting of trees, Nebraska will become one of the finest fruit raising states. Her soil and climate, especially in the eastern and southeastern sections are wonderfully favorable. The state is fairly alive with tree agents from Minnesota, Iowa and Missouri, who are ing a business which is simply prodigious.

The great draw-back to immigration is lack of timber, and that is being obviated very rapidly. The cotton wood tree is chiefly planted, and there is certainly no variety in the country which grows more rapidly. How do I like'this country? I ask myself the question just for the sake of imagining how I would answer it should any of my friends put it to me. I am in love with it My prayer is that 1 mav never again live east'of the Missouri Biver. I don't wonder that George Francis Train and Horace Greeley went into such raptures over it Of course Mr.

Train went to greater lengths than Mr. Greeley in testifying to his devotion to Nebraska. His investments also proved his faith in the grand future of of the state. Before the Union Pacific road was surveyed George Francis i bought much real estate in Omaha. A gentleman now living in Columbus, Platte Couuiy.

told me that he often met Mr. Train there. Everybodv laughed at the enthusiast and the peculiar locality he selected for his purchases. George told them (before the engineers had made the survey) t.uat a fine bridge would span the river between those hieh unconfli, muddy bluffs, and they laughed at him the more. George F.

THE sun bleachery, North Providence, B. and four cottages burned, on the 17th inst Loss partly insured.

The stock bleaching belonged to New York, Philadelphia and Boston parties. Two spans of the new Broadway bridge, connecting Winnipeg with St. Bonifice, were swept away on the 19th by the" ice flood. The "center pier is still standing, but the cresting piers are gone. A FIRE broke out in the drying-room of Odell's cigar factory, Lawrenceburg, on the 18th, and rapidly spread until one-fourth of the block on High and Fourth Streets was destroyed.

Loss $25,000. SEVENTEEN stores and dwellings, one- third of the business section of the town of Crisfield, burned on the 15th inst Loss insurance $35,000. James Booth, in whose store the fire originated, was arrested on the charge of arson. A DEADWOOD, D. dispatch of the 16th inst says: The most severe biz- zard for years began on the 7th, continuing a week, destroying telegraph wires, which are yet repaired.

Messages are being carried forty miles on horseback. Snow fell two feet on a level, drifting badly. The storm extended hundreds of miles in every direction. AH- explosion occurred at Poughkeepsie, N. on the 18th inst, on the West Shore Bailroad, opposite Hyde Park.

The shock was felt for a distance of two miles. Houses were shaken to their foundation and windows shattered. The concussion was caused by the explosion of four boxes of blasting cartridges, which some unknown person placed under a steam boiler and drill, about one mile north of Cruimbow. The boiler and drill were blown "to atoms, but no one was hurt A FIBS which broke out in the woods near Patchoguie, L. on the 18thinst, upon game in that region at this season would, of depend largely upon the condition of the men.

If the party had been good, health they might have subsisted longer, but "to men hardly able to hobble along, with frost-bitten it would be extremely difficult to kill game enough for so large a party: The only game they would be liable to meet with be white grouse and Siberian hare, and these are not abundant. At any rate it would take a great number of this small game to support a large party of men. I have myself trawlled over these steppes in Siberia for days and days without seeing a living thing except once in a while a white grouse. There are native villages in the country, and while not very far apart for Siberia, say 100 miles or so, yet to a party of starving men living on half an ounce of alcohol a day, half frozen, with a thermometer 30 degrees below zero, in the face of terrific storms, they might as well be at the other side of the globe. I think that within three weeks of the time after the two sailors left them DeLong and his party had all perished.

I think their bodies will be found in some of the abandoned huts which the natives use when fishing in summer."

SALT LAKE, Utah, April hints dropped during the recent conference of tte Mormon Church were acted upon yesterday, the burden of all the discourses in the tabernacle -being that the saints must not trade with or patronize in any way the gentiles, who are blamed for the late anti-Mormon legislation. The policy is openly deprecated by conservative Mormons, who will, pay no attention to it, but the fanatic masses are quite certain to obey the counsel, and the. consequence doubtless will be financial trouble. It is said the Gentile merchants will retaliate-bv discharging all Mormon employes, and buying nothing of the 'saints that they can avoid. 'If: the lines are closely drawn in this matter, much annoyance to both parties must ensuee.

SUSAN KAITZ was arrested and lodged in jail at Bacine on the 16th inst. on a charge of having stolen $29 of John Mainland, a young man to whom she was to be married in one week.

He was discovered and carried home and a physician was called in time to save his life. MAT JONES, a servant at the Sherman House, Ghippewa Falls, was arrested recently on a charge of stealing five hundred dollars from Miss Josie Nelson, a boarder.
