ES PAISEsyILLE SENINARY.-We spent n
pleasant evcnng last week ut this institution,
and we're somewhat surprised to iud that Ash
tsbula had no less than six representatives
among the pupils, and another called home on
account of family bereavement, will soon make
the seventh. The pupils now number about
l25, and the corps of teachers, nearly all Of
whom have had the advantages of Holyoke
training aud moulding, are now eight in num-
Der, are young ladies Of decided literary charac-
ter aud scolastic attainments. Under the prin-
cipalshp of Miss SESSIONS, the machinery of the
institution works with the harmony and prcci-
sion of clock-work The building is admirably
adopted to its object and the Seminary is ac-
Quiring reputation somewhat commensurate
with its merits. The Rev. Roswell HAWKS
bestows upon the institution the benefits of his
ripe experience.

Every voter in Nebraska before he votes
for Delegate to Congress, should ask him
self this question. Who car best serve
this Territory ia Congress- We hold as
e have always done-pOlitics a~side-that
IL Is the true policy of Territories, whose
Delegates have no vote or voice, to send
; R~ep5ssehlafSs 10 Congress of the
'%Iitical complexion of the working body IN
which he is-to have a seat. We nave
thus argued heretofore, when the Democ-
cy were in the a~seendancy in the House
branch of Congress, and we repeat we
hold tito be sound policy. It is perhaps,
a lamentabIe fact, but none the less true,
Than 60w-a-days, while political lines are
drawn SO rigidly, and party discipline so
ezaesingIy enforced, that IN all Eegisia-
tive assemblies from The Congress of the
United States do@n-tO a Territorial Leg
islature, hrTs Kissing goes By favors''
as well as elsewhere. We are not an
advocate by any means, of ihis plan of
procedure. Yet, all who have watched,
and are posted in regard to public mat
tiers, must admit the existence in all par
ties of such a state of affairs. Under
these circumstances, it is surely policy, to
say the LEAST, 'gghile in Rome TO act as
Romans do" We all know that the
House of Representatives is strongly Re-
publican and rapidly increasing. What
then. under the circumstances we have
mentioned, can we expect for Nebraska,
with a Delegate in Congress, politically
opposed to TO the body of which he is to
obtain fayors for our benefit! We sub
nit this question in all candor, and ask
for it serious consideration.

Degenerate Son of a Noble Sire"

J. Sterling Morton, the bogus Demo
cratic candidate for Delegate to Congress
during his speech in this place on Monday
last, stated that he was in favor of making
Nebraska a free State by cOnstitutiOnalpro-
hibition, The forgot 10 say whether he was
in favor of Nebraska being a free terri
tory or not. giving as a reason, boast
ingly, that his revered sire lived I'M State
that never held a slave; that he had been
properly reared on that question, and
more such assertions. We are satisfied
"Mort" was properly reared but we dc
fear he is a living practical ~demonstra-
ton that the p%roverb of solomon, "Train
up a child in the way he should go and
when he is old he will not depart from it,
does not always hold good. Or, il
may be, that his case demonstratesth e
t~ruthfulness of another proverb-"Spare
the rod and spoil the child"
Now be it known hat J. Sterling Nor.

longs to that political party which his de-

Morton undertook last Monday to ex-
plain the Legislative expenditures, "
published in the .AdUertiser a few weeks
ago. He for got to say a word about any
other items than the photograph and
repairing pistols" He says the "pho-
tograph' was a picture of the Capitol
building taken for the purpose Of letting
the Department at Washington see how
badly it NEEDED repairing, and that the
pistols were repaired TO fit them for the
"Pawnee War" Admit that all to be

tolls" and what had The members to do
with building fences" lumber" ia

Goss says, all hose other items were con-
nected with the famous war" We know,
howeyr, that claims were presented at the
last session of the Legislature against
the Territory for expenses incurred in
that expedition" amounting to some thou
sand dollars. Some Of which was paid
