Henry Clay. and others of our greatest
statesmen. because they would not follow
bis dictation. and favor bis wild schemes
Bot be succeeded in begging an immense
amount of money. upon which be has

daring to return to his own country, and

A Wise Act.

Whatever may be thought Of the re.
movsl Of the Capital Of Nebrssks. BY the
late Legislature. the location Of all public
institutions of the State at the Capital. is
/. measure the wisdom Of which will be-
come apparent in the future. Besides
having all these institutions under the eye
of the Government. ssaving Of millios Of
dollars to the State will be the result.
Z Ksusss has scattered her institutions, and
the consequence is. the State Treasury is
feeced to the tune of thousands Of dollars
annually, ostensibly for the benefit of the
institutions. bat really for the benefit OF
the localities where they are situated.
Our State Capital is located at Topeka ;
the State University, at Lawrence the
Agricultural College. at Manhattan the
State Normal School. at Emporia: the
Peuitentiary. at Lsavenworth the Insane
Asylum. at WyaudOtts; the Deal
snd Dumb Asylum. at Osawatomie.-
Every Winter. each of these Institutions
asks heavy donation from the State
and instead Of depending q ion their actu
al merits and necessities, the members ol
the Legislature from those Counties com
bipe to help each other through. They
embrace almost one half of the Legisla
ture, and form a combination too power
fol to be resisted. There is now no rem
sdy for the imposition, and the Stat
must submit to being bled until the vam
pyres are satiated. Let Nebraska tax
warning. and stand by the recent actiol
OF her Legislature.

CoNsIsTENoY.-The Manhattan Rsdi-
cal recently accused the Lsavenworth
Bulletin of Inconsistency and dirt eating.
because it spoke favorably Of the appoint.
ment of Hon. Hiram Griswold to an i'm
portant position, after having at one time
opposed him. But the Radical immedi-
ately hoists the name OF Senator Pome.
roy as it's candidate for Vice President,
and speaks Of him iu the highest terms.
after having opposed him and abused
him harder and more recently than the
BuIletin bad Mr.. Griswold. The Radi-
cal may consistently support Pomeroy
now, notwithstanding it's recent opposi.
ton. but it. cannot consistently denounce
another paper for doing thing exactly
similar.

r A PRoFrTLEss JoB.-The Washington
(Pa papers have for some time past
had an interesting time Of it, in giving an
opportunity to one man to buck against
the unanimous public opinion Of the COM
munity. Some time since, an old man
named Dinsmore. living in that County.
was murdered fer his money. Suspicion
rested upon one Fogler. and young Mont
gomery. son of VIM. Montgomery, for
merly member of Congress. Fogler was
tried 6rst. and convicted; but before SEN
tencs was passed. be was offered the priv
ilege granted BY the laws of that State.
to testify in the case Of Montgomery
Bot influences were brought to bear upon
him, with the connivsnce of his lawyers
such as assuring him of q new trial. if
be would not ruin his chances by his
testimony-that induced him to refuse to
testify. In short. no earnest effort was
made to convict Montgomery, and he was
acquitted. Foglsr failed to procure q
new trial, and was sentenced to be hung.
Before his execution. he made solemn
confesson. of his own free will and accord,
carrying truth upon the face of it, in
which be duplicates Montgomery as an
equal partner in the crime. and states in,
stances in which the latter proposed to
commit other roberies, ono of which was
the robbery Of his own father This con-
fsssion was published and generally cred
tied but VIM. Montgomery has under
taken the task Of brow beating the public
ont of it's belief; and in his rawlings,
pitches into the men who witnessed the
confession. the Sheriff, and every one
else who had any communication with
