NEBRASKA LEGISLATURE.

The first Territorial Legislature of Ne
braska assembled at Omaha, the capital, on
the 10th inst, as We learn from the Council
Bluffs Bugle, and after good deal of ex-
element and contention, both Houses were
organized. Some seven members Of the
Council assembled early in the day and elect
ed Judge Bennett, Speakcr-Governor Cum
mings appeared in the hall to make some
communication to the Council, and was called
to order-his proclamation declaring who
were members, was laid on the table. At
two O'Clock another Speaker was elected, Mr..
Folsom, but the first would not vacate. At
ter much contention, the last named gentle
man gave up the place to the Judge, on pre-
emption grounds we presume.
In the House, Mr.. Latham was elected
Speaker. At O'Clock both houses assem-
bled in joint convention, and the members
were sworn into Office by the Governor, after
which he delivered his message, which is
rot yet pub ished, and will not excite very
great degree Of interest when it is.

TALK ABOUT HOG PENS

The d rty, disgusting things! but they
must have some place in this world taat God
made so beautiful, so there is no use grumb-
| ling about it.
When was girl we US Ell to have model
pen of great model hogs right before our door,
and when the neighbors all wondered how
| farmer r. happened to raise such big hogs,
my Pa would tell them with an air Of salts
faction, it was because they were 50 near the
house that they got a taste of most every
thing to eat. When we began to grow civil
liked, the hog pen didn't look pretty to US,
for the trees in the yard grew large and
dropping, and their brown and yellow leaves
could not fall upon the green grass and wither
and rustic as the great spirit of Poesy de-
signed, but they could shower down in cddies
into the dirty pm, and the old hog ''Savage,"
would nose them into a help and nestle her
plump, hristled sid down among them and
grunt like the gladdest hog in the world
Sister loved her vines and poses and neat
yard, and loved poetry and pretty things,
and we used to get our girl-heads togethCr
and grieve, and guess how it would look all
grassy and green where the boggery was.-
Then We set our little WON ms wits to work,
and coax ID, and plead, and said our ward
might be fixed MGR than Uncle Timothy's
because it was gently sloping, and our kind
Pa consented at last, though h" said, after
that he could not hope to excel his neighbors
in any thing except poor hogs, but he was
willing if we would let him ave the great
big swll trough (hollowed out of giant
chsstnuD right under the twin peach trees. I
looked at sister and she looked at mel read
hope in her eyeo, but in mine she did not see
its reflection. said we'll, but my lips
fingered over the little word like tardy
spinner's fingers over knot Of soft fax =
Sister, hopeful girl, said We could put a wide
cover on tho trough and hide it all over, and
then some of our pots and boxes of plants
that were sitting around in the yard could be
placed on it, and she thought it would be
making something rather pretty ont of an
old, unsightly swlll trough. ssLike putin,
gossamer robe on dirty pillow boys said |,
poutlng; but she said we must be thankful
for small favor aud hide our time.
Pa grew dearer and better every day. and
often after hard days work he would put
MS big arm chair under some Of the shady |
trees on the site of the banished hoggery and !
cad, and look very happy. At last he said
he thought some day he would move that
sinking trough clear away, and then we
waited the next morning until he was plow-
ng on the other side Of the hill, and we bur
led and opened the big gate and laid rollers
III the way from the trough across the street.
nd then laded out the contents, and after a
title rest We worked with handspikes until
re trundled the old nuisance off on the mis-
lon it was meant for. Our Pa laupned

The Difference.

On the 9Th Of January last the democracy
of Pottawatamie county, Iowa, assembled, a,
Council Bluffs, and after resolving that the
Democracy Of the Union have passed through
fiery ordeal, ssfcr the purifying Of the ma
tions," (by the way very much needed by the
Pierce and Douglas pa ty,) and been sstran-
pied upon BY sJactious opposition, they en-
dorse the Nebraska swinale, and glorify
Franklin Pierce Is worthy to be standard
bearer Of such partys
The following is one OF the concluding
resolutions, and very properly condemns by
implication, any other course, save that of
going into joint convention for the election
Of United States Senator. 1t was passed be-
fore absquatulation had been resorted to,
while those copied above, were passed after
that event was known. This accounts for
the difference in the tone.
Resolved, That our Democratic Senators
and Representatives have done their whole
duty BY going into joint convention, for the
election Of q United States Senator, and
that II an election is not made, let the fault
rest with the majority, who had the power
to elect and refused TO use it.

SECRET SocIETIEs.-Gov. Bigler, of Pa.
goes against Secret political societies. In his
late message is the following:-ss What ad-
mlrer of the father of his country, but must
now feel with resstless force, his solemn war;
n'ngs against secret socie' les for political
ends, as placing powerful engine in the
hands OF the selfish and designing, and en-
able them not only to acquire power unwor
thlly, but also to sap and destroy the most
sacred principles of our governments The
ex- Gov ernor's disgust at the operations of
the Know Noth;ngs is natural enough. Il
Was BY their exertions that he was beaten
some thirty odd thousand votes. and il was
not to be expected that he would look upon
secret societies with any other feelings than
disgust and repu nance. Practically, tia
whole State government of PENNSYLVANIA is
In the hands of the order. This fact. consid-
cred in connexion with the prostration of the
democratic party. and his own personal dis
comhture, might have excused a still more
bitter denunciation Of the American party.
