sleeping in rooms where the air has
been poisoned with the breath Of several
persons during the ~evening-too much
shade. On the last specification we wish
to say a word farther, As agreeable as
are shade trees, and undoubtedly benef-
cisl also, there is a possibility Of having
too much of a good. Suppose you keep a
plant in some of these deep shaded hous-
es. 1t will perhaps find light enough to
keep life In its branches. but take tina,
plant into the full blaze of the sun, and it
will wilt land die in the very sunshine
which is the life of a plant that has moi
been diseased by thick shade. Why then
may not the effect be the same upon men,
women and children, diseased in their
dark rooms, and then at times going out
into the full blaze Of the sun. Were il
not at any rate much safer to let in a good
proportion of sunlight into u living and
sleeping rooms; and then the light will be
life and strength in all places. Give your
homes light and air uncontaminated with
foul gases generated by causes which we
have mentioned, and you must at least
look for causes outside the atmospheric
influence, if you are sick. We might
here speak of those causes which are
found sometimes in improper food, but of.
tener in improperly masticated, and of
course undiges,ed food. In this matter Of
food, a little careful observation will ena-
bic one 10 determinate what " agrees with
them" A person who, knowing that any
- IL II I'D al rualros him IA
ranges the system; and will yet persist in
that food, ought to die, and cucumber the
earth with one less fool; but the death is
as much a case of self.murder as if the
person amused himself or herself in thrust.
ing a pointed knife between the ribs, at
random, and accidentally" happened to
hit the heart.
Use the good things of God then, (but
then remember God never made a fruit
cake, no sliced His cucumbers so thin You
could not mnsticate them y but use them
properly. He has given us teeth with
which to masticate--to render our food a
pulpy mass, and not merely to bite it into
" chunks" before we throw it into the
stomach-and if by reason of the former
violation of Natures Laws your teeth are
gone, keep a hammer and an anvil by
your side TO aid you in the process, rather
than throw half masticated food into your
stomach to bring dyspepsia and a hundred
other diseases.
There is much in this connection with
regard to dress, also, which effects health,
but to which we can only refer at this
time. Think, watch and investigate these
things.-.Adrian Erpositor.

The Warm Season Commented
See to your Homes.

We think we nigh. safely conclude
that the warm season has at last COM
menced and it behooves every n to
look well to his premises, and see that no
disease generating plague spot is suffered
10 remain in and about the dwelling.
Many people are not careful enough IN
this respect. Disease and death enters
their dwellings, perhaps to them In a mys-
ferrous manner; when an observing eye
in a close, and sometimes by a superficial
examination, would discover causes which
are as direct bids for the aftiiction, as If
one were to build a pest house under his
bedroom window. These various causes
are too numerous to mention in their full
detail. They are found often IN refuse
sink holes which receive the kitchen wash.
We knew a person a few days since to
complain of a neighbor who turned a cow
into a joint lane. for a half hour only, each
night and morning ; while in the same
lane, not ten feet from the compliments
door, was a sink-pool made from the kiich-
en- wash Of the complainant, which was
filled with reeking filth covered over with
its green scum, the very personi6cation Of
q disease generator. These causes are
also found in hog pens. close cattle yard.
and uncleansed barn-yards-unclean eel
lars-unaired sleeping rooms with un
emPued slors in them-unwashed persons

Not Right.

During our political campaign which
has just closed, a good deal of pickering
and strife was exhibited among the resi-
dents Of Sarpy county. This is all wrong.
People who inhabit one county-One local
ty, ought to be united in order to give
strength to any thing they undertake. or
give weight to any measure which might
be proposed for the public good. Some
times a misunderstanding exists, which, if
explained in time, would do away with a
great deal Of the evil which follows. The
The election is now over, and we sincerely
hope, that personal piques will be forgotten,
and jealousy of every kind be discarded,
and let us go in and labor for the general
good of the county, and our w beautiful
city. BY a united and harmonious effort,
much can be done-much will be done.

The Immortal seven.

We are pleased to our to the pub
lie, that there are yet left in the city of
Omaha, seven honest men-seven men
who stood up before over a thousand of
the opposition, and voting for the Hon.
Fenner Ferguson, proclaimed to the squat.
ters Of the Territory, that they could divest
themselves of all sectionalism, and cast
their votes for an honest mana man who
is not covered all over with pledges.
The numerical figure q, is connected
with n great pany incidents in the history
of the world, both sacred and profane.-
For the benefit of the curious, we will
mention a few of them:-
Seven days compose the number in
each week.
/, is said that there are seven wonders
Of the world.
Greece in her palmy days boosted Of
seven wise men.
There are seven stars, which form a gle
rious constellation in the Heavens.
The city Of Rome is bull, on seven hills.
Seven years was the time specified by
the Pilgrim fathers when they landed at
Plymouth, that their mutual association
should exist.
In Revelations, St. John speaks o. the
seven churches of Asia-in his vision he
saw seven golden candlesticks-seven an
gels. with seven walls, containing seven
plagues-and the dragon which he saw
had seven heads. a.
Pharoah, in his dream, saw coming up
out of the river seven fat kline and seven
lean kine-and it was interpreted by Jo-
seph, that there was to be seven years Of
plen.y-snd then was 10 follow seven
years of famine.
Our Saviour talks Of a day coming wher
seven women shall take hold of one man
He also tells Of a oma who had sever
husbands-all brothers.
And last. but not least by any means
is the immortal seven Of Omaha. iionoI

of having done right, when surrounded b!
corruption where the very air was faint

persOuaI.

Hon. John Finney, who so ably and eff
iciently represented Sarpy county in the
last Legislature, was not a candidate for
reelection. He was frequently urged by
his fellow citizens, to return this fall as
the peoples choice-and we believe he
would have been the unanimous choice,
had he consented to become a candidate.
We are proud to say, that Mr.. Finney, is
no aspirant for place or POWERFUL IS
(what cannot be said in these times, of ev-
ery one the noblest work of God-'an

hundred thousand men, and, as all Span
iards are soldiers this number could be
readily increased to FIVE hundred thousand.
A large increase in her navy is to be
gradually effected, so as to render her, at
nc distant day, a first rate marine power.
She had already determined to assume
her former position, and demands a seat
at any future European congress. Should
affairs in the east lin Turkey, for instance,
as expected, } again demand the interfer-
ence of the other European nations, Spain
will insist on being n Of the party. In
ten years her navy car be so enlarged as
to be equal 10 any emergency, and she
could then alone cope successfully with
France.
With the United States as anally, Spain
can restrain England. She already re-
jects the interference of that country and
France in her Cuban affairs, and claims
the right 10 be exempted from the opera
ton OF the Monroe doctrine, as well as
the right TO treat with the United States
in regard 10 her island possessions in
America. She is now engaged in pre-
pairing a most liberal treaty Of commerce
and navigation between the United States
and her ports, both home and colonial,
(no such treaty having been made up to
this day. as well as a judicious recipro'
cal postal treaty. Spain has nothing to
apprehend from Russia, but both France
and England have always had design:
upon her.-M Louis Dem.

stopping the Salt Lake Mails.

The post master at Independence, Mo-,
has received an official notice from the
Postmaster General, that the contract for
carving the mails from thence to the Salt
Lake has been set aside, and he is there-
fore ord cred to withhold the mails until
further orders. This is done by virtue of
a right always reserved by the depart
ment to rescind mail contracts on giving
due notice and one months pay to contract
ors. In this case the contract was taken
by a company of Mormons at Salt Lake
City, who have already made several
trips under il. So general were the CON-
plant, of the mails having been violated
and letters opened, especially the cores
pondence of the Government officials,
that it became quite evident these Nor.
mon contractors were mere tools of Brig.
ham Young. The Administration has al.
so taken another step toward insuring the
faithful performance of the mail service
in Utah. A postmaster had, it seems,
been appointed for Salt Lake City who
was not a Mormon. His commission was
forwarded to him but never reached It's des-
~unauon, and duplicate copies failed like
wise. In fact, he was not recognized by
Brigham Young. He has now received
his commission in person at Washington,
together with full instructions as to his
course, and will be sent out supported by
a protecting military force.

The American Union.

The Baltimore Patriot, OF Saturday eve-
ming contains a graphic account of the re-
ception and entertainment OF the guests
from the Western cities, who arrived IN
Baltimore on Saturday morning last. A
mong the speeches of the occasion those
of Mayor Swan of Baltimore, and Gov.
Chase of Ohio, were pre-eminent. One
of the concluding paragraphs OF Eov'
Chase's speech, touching upon the Amer
lean Union, deserves the widest circula.
ton. He said:
you have spoken, eloquenily, sir, of
railroads as bonds of union, and your OBJ
servations were as just as they were elo-
quent. No man conversant with rail-.
roads can be a disunionest. The social
intercourse which they foster, the ties of
business which they create, the mutual de
pendence which they establish and exhibit,
make disunion impossible. There must
of course, be differences of opinion on
some points. Real grievances may from
time to time demand redress. But there
is no evil Of which disunion is the proper
cure. And the more we see of each other
the less likely we shall be to commit the
error of thinking otherwise. The fact is
that we who live along the line of the Am
erican Central railway, don't mean to lie
this union be broken up. Maryland vii
not consent 10 it, | think. | trust Virgini'
will not. Ohio, l am sure will not. No

then will3 No; sir. We may diffe

We will maintain our respective opinion

head sound mind and unhinching in
James Davidson, Of Plattford, is
a gentleman, Of good sense, and possessed
of that sound judgment and sterling worth
which peculiarly fits him for a legislator.
With such men, we may safely conclude,
the interests Of Sarpy county will be safe
in the coming Legislature, and the best
interests Of the Territory guarded with
Jealous care.
William III. Cook, was reelected Pro-
bate Judge. He is a young man of more
than ordinary enterprise, and has resided
among us from an early %period-and by
his public spirit and untiring energy, he
has contributed in no small degree TO build
up the county, whose chief and first officer
he is. 1t is sufficient Of him to say, that
within a few months, this is the second
time he has received the endorsement of
Sarpy county, which is the best evidence
of their jus, appreciation of his ability and
public worth.
For County Commissioner no better
selection could have been made. Robert
M'Carty came here long before the Indi-
n had left the place. And prefering a
settlement in the interior Of the county to
the river front, he has by his industry and
public spirited policy, won the confidence
and highest regard of his fellow citizens.
Mr.. Lovejoy as the first Mayor Of Belle
vue, is so favorably known throughout ihc
county that he needs no endorsement, from
us, while Mr. Jenkinson, has that probity
Of character and honesty of purpose which
peculiarly fits him for a county commits
sioner.
John M. Enoch, is reelected Sheriff.
John has "got he nerpe"--is a man that
is always right on the goose-never makes
any mis,akes-is q right royal good fellow,
and makes a first class officer. We wish
we had more such men among. us, for with
such men as he, we know the country
would altcays be safe.
As to our Treasurer, Mr.. Wiley; Reg
lister, c. ID. Keller; County Clerk. s. ID.
Bangs; County Surveyor, w. w. Harvey;
Superintendent of Common Schools, John
p. Kast-they are all young men, but ia
vorites with the dear people, and as their
votes show, can never be beat for an office
where there is a large field and n fair
fight. They are irumps that have never
