ha county, but throughout the Territory,
did not, and do not nOsc, fsirly understand
the merits of the "adjourHnent question:"
IN consequences of which a few of the
members were pledgedto its support
Mr.. Taylor, The introduc r Of the scheme,
seems TO be disguised with its glaring de-
formities, and would be Elad to get out Of
it, but il has gone too ia and must come
to a vote. No one seems to impugn his
motives d directly, yet thre is a constant
whispering among memters and outsiders
that il is only a hobby L TaylOr's to get
into Congress- 1t is evident that he
will either rise or fall OF this question.
You will, doubtless, SPREAD all the facts
which win be Brought to light on this
subject, before the peope of Nemaha, at
an early day, who vii at a glance dis
Germ the utter fallacy of TaylOF's election
eerng movements. The g~entleman's
Congressional visions are not as bright as
they were before the converting of the
Legislature. But he viii succeed in car
rying his point in ons thing, and that is
the detsd of the biAt He don't want it
to PASSENGER did nor don't ncW think
of such a thing!
Mr.. Reynolds. Of Otoe, introduced in
the House "Jont Resolution &C., SINH
lar to Taylor's, differing, however, in re-
gard to facts. The bill was referred to
the Committee on Federal Relations, with
Instructions to report the same at its teis-
ure, which is a strong indication Of its
f~orlorn fate.
The business of the house is conducted
more harmoniousIy than usual; no long
and "buncomb" speeches. Every mem
Der punctual at his seat, sober, and wide
awake to the interests Of their constitu-
ents. Better selections could not be
made-by the people to represent them in
a Legislative capacity.
Gov. Saunders is a good man, and will
no doubt be an acceptable officer. His
message-is before your readers by this
time. 1t was delivered in person in
presence of the two bodies, besides a
large concourse of ladies and gentlemen.
Gov. S. Is not politician, and from this
fact it is-to be presumed he is an homes:
man. The citizens of Nebraska have
good reasons to be grateful to "Honest
Abe" for making this appointment, for
they have heretofore suffered somewhat
by corrupt, incompetent and dishonest
officials.
Sec. Paddock is at "home" while dis
charging the duties of his office. He can
be seen at his post almost hourly, accom-
dating the members with desired infor-
nation, vigilant and watchful over the
affairs of the Government and the Terri
tory. Too much praise cannot be awar-
ded Mr.. P. for the arrangement of
"things'' around about the Capitol. No
danger of him following the footsteps of
his "illustrious predecessor" ]. Stealing
Morton. His countenance is toe honest
his heart is made of different material
from that Of a pIunderer of the public
Golfers. He is none of your pitiful, dis
picable partizans, but an open, liberal
officer, without a stain of littleness or
meanness on his character.
I have made the acquaintance of Judge
Streeter, who has been appointed for
your judicial district. He designs holding
court as soc as practicable at your city.
l find the Judge a sociable, kind, and
pleasant gentleman, and it is said a
sound and efficient officer. Your people
will have a prompt, faithful, and Impair
tial dispenser of justice for once, at least,
in Their person of Judge Streeter. 1,
therefore, congratulate you on your good
fortune in this appointment.
&c Crow, Reid and Crother have
taken rooms at the "Farnam." R. w.
Furnas, your Editor, Mcpherson and
Holiday are stopping at the "Herndon,"
one of the most magnificent, agreeable,
and comfortable hotels on the Missouri
slope. "AlI minds are clear" and pro-
visions ample to accommodate the world
and the "rest of mankind at the "Hern-
don" s- t.sf -- SSH,
But I must reserve something for some
other time, and beg leave to remain
