Personal and Political.

The New York Herald thus gossips about
the late President and Secretary Of State:
"Mr. Pierce, it is said, finds more congo
NAL associations with the anti-slavery dis
tingues and black republican leaders, than
with the old rough, rowdy democrats who
held him up in their arms during his peril
GUS Presidential career. 1t is even stated
that Pierce and Marcy, have gone over to
the black republicans, bag and baggage, scrip
and scrippage.. There are certainly strong
reasons for believing in this remarkable de.
tour of the distinguished associates. Marcy,
the pungent old Secretary, dined with some
of the black republican magnates and fnan-
ciers at the Yacht Club House, Hoboken, the
other day, and a fine time they had Of it, too.
Marcy has been into some s~tockjobbing OPP
~erations in Wall street and he Is published
as applicant for and holder of a large mum.
Der Of shares of the stock of the Michigan
and Southern Indiana Railway. 1t is reported
that this corporation intend to send him to
Europe as its financial agent to sell its bonds.
Whether or not he will meet with the same
success in selling railway bonds IN London
as in cutting up Clarendon automatically,
remains to be seen. The fact is, however,
that the entire Marcy and Van Buren, party
including Flagg and the whole family-are
considered as having abandoned the admin
istration of Mr.. Buchanan, and gone over
bag 2 baggage to the a~nti-slavery and
black republican forces.s

The Great Mail Robbery.

A parcel of the political enemies of JOHN
WENTWORTH, Mayor of Chicago, preferred
a charge against him a few days since Of rob-
bling the mail, and had him arrested. The
Democratic Press, has the following in re-
ference to the trial:
"The Mayor in all his length was up be-
fore Judge Drummond, upon a complaint
preferred by the sharp set mail agent, for
stealing the Government mail bagsi There
had been n search warrant. and numerous
sacks at the Summit were emptied of their
peaceful agricultural products and brought
to town by the local mail agent, to be turned
to damning proof against the ex-M. C. The
sacks in question were the coarse duck, or
bag, used for the transmission of "Pub.
Docs" to members of Congress, in which
capacity Long John had received some doz-
en- or more Of them. 1t was shown in evil
dence that NJ. C.'s never returned these
sacks. That Judge Douglas never had re-
turned them in any case; that they passed by
common acceptance as envelopes, and were
not mail bags at ALL"
The Tribune pays its compliments to the
conspirators after this fashion:
"The conspirators who trumped up the
charge against the Mayor and caused his ar
rest, were foiled in the best part of their an
~ticipated revenge. They had postponed the
arrest until Monday night when the writ was
placed in the hands of the Marshal with a
request to serve the writ at the time the
Mayor was presiding over the session Of
Council, theTce be dragged from his seat in
the chamber to prison. But the Marshal
would neither lend himself to do that dirty
trick nor let them have the writ to hand to
some supple tool, but waited until after the
Council had adjourned, when he read his
wri N / to * Nj; yor Wentworth's personal
feeognizance for his appearance next day,
so that he was not in the custody Of the Off
Ger a minute, from first to last. q
The conspirators were beaten on another
point. They tried to have the case brought
before a Commissioner, but Wentworth in
sisted upon going before U. s.. Judge Drum
mond, who very quickly kicked the malic-
ious prosecution out Of court, and should
have Kicked those who brought it before him.
How're and Stewart, democrats, defended the
Mayor; the prosecution employed Buck, Nor
ris, Know Nothing candidate for Governor,
who tried to defeat Bissell and elect Rich
ardson, but failed Just as he did against w.
A fit instrument in the hands Of those who
EMPLOYED him.

Among the many announcements Of can
didates for Delegate to Congress from Ne

the Nebraska City Neus. From the pledges
given, and the we'll known popularity of the
gentleman, there can be no doubt of his sue

will please take notice of the entree of Mr..
Scdlawags upon the course for the August
race, and draw of accordingly.
P. V. ~ScALAwAGs, Esq.-This gentleman

The undersigned having consulted himself
and Mrs. Scalawags has concluded to offer
himself as n candidate for Congress, at the

to enter the same within ten miles of his own
house, and for the benefit of those living in
the cities and villages of smaller extent he
will have located dt them the Land Offices
aforesaid, and placing implicit confidence
in himself, and knowing that his chances for
success are very latteiing, he rests assured
that the people Of this Territory can select

Mr.. Scalawags we would have you under
stand that we will not announce the name of
yourself or any other gentleman in our col

the small sum of twenty-five Dollars. We
will take Nemahd Valley money though we
learn it is not very good at some establish
ments in this city. So Mr.. Scalawags.

North Star Morgan.

Through the politeness of Mr.. HENRY
OLxsTED, we had the pleasure a few days
since of seeing and witnessing the move
ments, of this beautiful and celebrated
Stock Horse. This is undoubtedly the finest
Horse, that has ever been brought to this
State. He is now eight years old, Of
of a bright bay color, legs dark, a fine eye,
heavy name, and a heavy and flowing tail.
His movements are graceful and easy, and
he carries his head in a manner calculated
to please the most difficult of horse fanciers
1t is with feelings Of pride, that we an
nounce the introduction of such stock into
Western Iowa, and we hope that Stock
growers in this section, will give their at
tention to raising fine horses, and sustain
Mr.. OLNsTED in his efforts to introduce a
superior breed Of Horses into the Vest

Omaha City Times

We are in receipt Of the first number of
a large weekly paper, claiming the above
title, and hailing from Omaha City, N. T.
1t is published by W. W. WymAN, ESQ.,,
and gives evidence of editorial ability, of
no mean order. In fact, Mr.. W. being an
old hand at the bellows, the people
of Omaha City have reason to ex-
pect that he will furnish them with a paper
worthy Of the Capital and of the Territory.
That they will be disappointed, we do not
believe. The politics of the Times is demo-
cratic, but the editor says that it will 'sbe
the organ of the sentiments, not of a clique
but of the public" As far as the democra-
cy is concerned, we have no sympathy, but
if the editor makes the Times the organ Of
the public, we wish him God speed, with
his new enterprise, and may it flourish ever
and aye, and long after the demise Of those
"ambitious and designing men who have
misguided the public opinion of the Terri
tory, again and again, without one word
said to unmask their wicked fallacies."

Council Bluffs has long felt the need of a
suitable Hall for Judicial and other pur-
poses, and the desideratum is now about to
be supplied. JIM. PALMER, ESQ., few
days since made a proposition to the effect
that, if the citizens Of this city would raise
him . bonus Of $4,000, he would Immediate
ly commence the erection of a building
suitable for q City Hall. The sum was
promptly raised, and the consequence is,
that the work has already been commenced
on the foundation. The structure is to be a
three story brick 50 by AZ feet, with II feet
ceilings. Estimated cost $4,000. Messrs.
FoLsox & MALEr have the contract, and the
building is to be completed early this fall.
The first story is designed for two store
rooms, 81 by so feet, and the third story
for a Hall. The site for the buildings, and
upon which workmen on now engaged,

street, and just below what is known as
Palmer's Block.
1t is b v We progress. Buildings
are springing up in every part Of the
city, As If BY miracle. In fact, it is i'm
possible, for us, cooped up in the Office, as
We are, to keep posted in regard to the vast
improvements that are being made, and we
would feel under many obligations to our
citizens, if they would furnish US With such
data or information, as they may have, so
rs to enable us to make . note of what il
being done in our city, for the information
Of all concerned in its prosperity.
