The Union Pacific Railroad terminus is
at Benton, six hundred and ninety. eight
miles west of Omaha, to which place the
stage offices have been forwarded
from Laramie, thus shortening the stage
travel one hundred and twenty-five
miles Chicago is now several hundred
miles nearer the seaboard than
she is to the terminus of the Union
Pacific, and within few years will
be so confessedly central to the railroad
system of the country that no one will think
Of calling her Western city. The summer
travel westward is immense, and has this
season shared with the seaboard the hegira
Of our leisure or pleasure hunters.

MONTGOMERY, August LIN the Senate to.
day a militia bill was passed. 1t authorizes
the Governor to organize the militia when
he sees proper.
The disability removal bill was hotly dis
cussed.
Mr.. Pennington and other Republicans
strongly urged the removal of all disabilities.
The native Republicans generally favor this
measure, but the Northern mepbers oppose
it.
In the House MIR. McCraw, the Speaker,
got through bill removing disabilities from
the people of Chambers county. This is
hoped to be the entering wedge for gem

One night lately while the New York
and Bristol line steamer was coming down
the Sound, person on board was so indls-
Greet as to boast that he was Ku-Klux
man in the South, and that he wanted
to exercise his peculiar qualities in that
line on any one present. A late officer, who
served under General Candy in New Mexico,
was present and told the fellow that he had
mistaken his latitude, and that this was no
place for such boasting, but the advice
was not taken, and the Ku-Klux man
being determined to insult all the people
on board, the Union man knocked him
down, and he was carried off very much
crest-fallen, and apparently cured of his
sanguinary ideas.

that every bed in the house contained

tears, buried her face in her hands, and
leaning over the railing sobbed bitterly.

discount on that girls "loyalty,"

The joint committee of the two schools Of Pres.

unanimously adopted the following plan of union.
II will be submitted to the two General Assem-
blies this year for final ratifcaton:-
l. The Philadelphia basis TO doctrine, with
the addition of a brief explanatory clause.
2. The two Boards OF Publication shall continue
their separate catalogues Of publications until the
united Assembly shall organize its first Beard Of
Publication, when the two catalogues shall be re-
ferred to IL for revision, it being understood that
only nvidious references to the late division shall
be erased.
3. The right of presbyteres to examine minis
ters applying for admission was agreed TO, the Old
School yielding the imperative rule, and leaving
each presbytery to examine as disposed.
4. Theological semlnaries are all to be advised
to put themselves under assembly or synodical

plan by the assemblies and the speedy consolida-
ton of the Presbyterian Church.
