The Lats Blockade on the Pacific
Railroad.
Denial of Charges Against Officers OF
the Road.

OMAHA, March u.
The communication in the Chicago
Tribune of the 18th inst, dated Bryan,
w. T., and signed by r. & w. Murray
and others pretending to give an
account of trip over the Union Pacific
Railroad and the sutferings of pas
sengers is full of misstatement, and
was signed by parties on the train
who were not aware OF the contents of
the paper they were signing. The pa
per was written and circulated for sig
natures by party interested in rival
enterprise simply as an advertisement
to injure the Union Pacific. The
statements made as to the sutferings
of passengers and the refusal of tele-
graph operators TO forward messages
are baseIess fabrications. The delays
on the road are grossly exaggerated,
and everything distorted. Many of
the parties who innocently signed the
letter have been surprised at its con-
tsnts and -.repudiate it. The entire
communication is so malignant and
full OF faisehoods that it carries no
weight with the people who undertook
that cheap system of advertising. The
Union Pacific is now open its entire
length, and trains are moving regu-

irish Church Bill Passed to Sc cOnd
RcadID e In the House of Commons.

Immense Enthusiasm.
LONDON, March "a.
The debate on the bill for the discs
resumed in the House of Commons to-
night. Mr.. Spencer and Mr.. II. Wal
pole, members for Cambridge Univer-
sity opposed the bill, and the O'Donohue
member for Tralee made fervid
speech in its favor.
Mr.. Gathern Bandy followed, he said
the strength of the Liberals came only
from the majorities at the Hastings, it
rested on no firmer basis. Mr.. Gladstone
had pledged himself and his followers
to the destruction OF all that was deemed
most sacred. The destruction of the
Church was urged by yenvyand jealousy.
The speaker maintained that the
Mr.. Gladstone then rose to conclude
the debate. He reviewed the course of
the bill and the arguments which had
been made for and against it, and de-
clared that new policy was necessary
for Ireland, and this was the first step
the majority. Mr.. Gladstone resumed
his seat amid deafening cheers, and the
House divided on the motion that the
bill be read a second time, with the fol-
lowing result: For the motion $685.
aud against the motion $50, being
majority for the government of lis.
The announcement of the re-
House and the cheers were ta-
ken up by the people in the lobbies,
and the news was then conveyed to an
immense crowd outside of the House,
who Joined in the applause with the
widest enthusiasm.
The House at 3 o'clock in the after
noon adjourned over the Holidays to
the lst day OF April.
The Fenian Halpin will be set at
liberty upon guaranteeing his future

Rio Janeiro advices state that Gen.
Lopez is collecting his army at the
mouth of the Tebicuary river.
AT the last meeting of the Council
of Ministers, the Emperor introduced
the project of law abolishing the
whole system of the workmen's 3 regis
ter. He expressed his satisfaction with
the results attained by the progressive
measures of the past few years. After
a review of the former legislation,
enlarging the rights and liberties of the
workingmen of France, he said he be-
lieved that the law he now proposed
would place them in their proper posi-
tion and tend to disarm hatred and
cause force to give way to right. The
Emperor's project was adopted by the
Council. and the law will be sub.
miited to the Corps Legtslatif at an
early day.

DRY GOODS.

The market continues moderately
active for the sale of printed calicoes at
reduced prices, but for most other clas-
ses OF goods there is very little life in
trade prices. All classes of goods are
mostly selling at low and Improbable
rates. Trade consequently is despond-
ent but business transacted is mostly
done at loss all around. There is no
important change to notice to-day, but
the market is little feverish owing to
the failure OF the Utica Woolen Mills
and some defalcatiOn in the affairs OF
the James Steam Mill. The weather is
fine and aa prices are low enough for
the safety of trade, more activity may
be anticipated as trade is we'll repre-
sented.

has baen sent to Boston, Philadelphia
and Baltimore. The demand for money
continued much later than usual and
many bank accounts were not made up

plenished by transfers from other de-
positories. It was generally under

more freely.

Exchange OF Compliments.

The Radicals now handy compliment
ary epithets with each other. WEN
DELL PHILLIPS, in his anti.slavery Stand
ard, says that GRANT "recreates exces.
sively." The precise meaning of this
from the anti-slavery Standard we will
not attempt to fathom; but its negro
worshipping brother, the Erening Bulle
tin, calls it "Copperhead complaint
The reply of the New York Times, how.
ever. is far more imposing. 1t calls the
talk of WENDELL PHILLIPS "senseless
gabble," and crushes him with this au-
gust comparison:
There is not probably sovereign in
the world who passes so little of his
time away from his capital during the
warm months as President Grant does
We do not think "our sovereign" will
compare in assiduity with NAPOLEON,
or even Queer VICTORIA; he is more like
her son, the Prince of Wales.

Wine that will not In ntox icate.

The juices of any sound, rfpe fruit,
may be canned, or put in jugs, and
sealed up air-tight, while it is scalding
hot, just as we put up canned fruit. and
may be kept any length of time if pro-
perly put up. A small bottle of such
juice may be opened at any time, and
mixed with water and sugar, making q
pleasant drink, or wine that is not in
toxicating. Or, better still, such juices
are excellent to use over vegetables in.
stead of vinegar, or with bread, when
fruit is scarce, children would often pre-
fer fruit juices, even without sugar, to
molasses or milk. Much good fruit
might be used in this way that is now
left to rot, because it is too small to
pick over. Any fruit worth gathering.
if ripe and good, may be washed and
pressed, or scalded and the juice drained
off, then the juice must be made boiling
hot and put into jugs or bottles, and
properly sealed.-Franklin Register.

The Southern Trade.

New York journals say that Southern
purchases thus far this Fall have
been the chief cause of the activity
in trade. The speculative movements
in grain at the West during the past
two years have brought disaster tc
those engaged in them, and finally re
suited in loss to producers, who are in
debt to the country storekeepers. Thu:
the New York merchants suffer from the
inability of the Western merchants tc
liquidate old debts, and consequently
Western credits have to be reduced
This will account for the discrepancy
between the purchases of the South and
West. New York is attracting Southern
trade to her wharves and stores by @
wise and liberal policy. In that city
people recognize the fact that the wal
is over, and treat the South as part Of
the Union.

Chinese Labor.

Some of the Louisiana papers are
taking decided ground against the In
PRODUCTION of Chinese laborers into that
State or section of the country. Upon
the same subject the New Orleans Pic
ayune remarks: "the need of greatly IN
creased labor, and the unreliable char
acter of the negro, are admitted; but
the introduction of the Chinese seems
to be regarded as greater evil. Grave
and widespread social and political evils
are anticipated as the consequences OF
the settlement among Ms of another IN
ferior, unassimilating and un-Chrls-
tianized race. 1t is feared that their
presence would, in time, bring upon us
| a convulsion no less fearful than that
from which we have just emerged. We
confess the problem is grave one"

Fair View Of Prescription.

In replying to the structures OF
Clarksburg correspondent who assails
the advance movement of the Ohio
county Republicans, the Ints'iigenoer OF
Yesterday discourses at some length
upon the character and results of our
proscriptive system. Its remarks are
characterized by so much candor and
clearness of sentiment that we cannot
resist quoting as follows. The italics
are our own:

end, to maintain and enforce the idea
that all the adult males should be citi.
zens. and all the citizens have eqnal
rights under the Goyernment-an idea
which is the very life. bloed of Repu6-
licanism-we find ourselves now In
time of profound peace and perfect Sc
curity, denying to q class OF intelligent,

the privilege of earning livelihood IN
the yocatiors for which it was their
misfortune to be. eduoated-the only
vocations unhappily for which many OF
them are fitted; Withholding the right
of the same class to appeal for Justice in

instice in every civilized country. we
at the same time having complete
political control of those courts,
high and low. We deny them

advantage of their disability to escape
the paymen of Just debts, (although the
constitution of the United States de-
clares in emphatic terms that no STATE
shall enact any law impairing the ooh-
CATION of contract thereby ID shect

benefit of the Government, but leavihg
it in the pocket of the dishonest DEBTOR
We exclude from the schools the edu-
Gated ex.rebels in the southern part OF
the State, where the schools so greatiy
need their services; and thereby repulse'
drive away and antagonize those VINO
might be made warm friends and valu-
able allies of the system in that region
where such friends are its sore need.
As if to render this last Discrimination
still more senseless and odious, ice forbid
,romeu TO teach rithoat taking the iron
clad oath, and stcedring that they nerer
"bore arms" against the United States or
The State. Then, we deny the class
of citizens described, who are Of
