LINCOLN, January 10, 1850.
Lhave an opportunity Of sending a
a few lines by private conveyance.
The excitement thus far attending the
session. IS abating. The Senstorship
WINS decided kst evening, on the 10th
ballot. -Four ballots were had on last
Thursday night; thirteen ballots on
last Saturday night, and two on last
evening. The Upton men were anx-
iOus TO eroWd.the-matter to some'ter-
minatiOn. All Others feared the close
combat, and were anxious to staNe off
final action. After the final ballot
\ taken, every candidate, as he was
calledg came forward and addressed
the assembled multitude; pledging
themselves to the support Of the sue
ccssful candidate. Harmony andgOed
feeling characterized the entire assem-.
bly,. Z The members of Nemaha en-
terrain the kindest regards for the en-
tire bOdyrOf Legislators, and hope to
meet them again by their representa-
tives two years hence, in these halls,
for q similar purpose, when they viii
take, occasion 10 ~reciprOcate the good
Offices of others.
The Nemaha delegation took oeca-
sion yesterday to visit the Salt Works,
OF the State. They are situated nOrth-
west Of the town about two miles.
There are about three hundred acres
OF fiat, swanapy, muddy ground in
AN OblOng shape, on which nothing
seems b grow near the salt works.
The works consisto Of a well dug I'm the
ceiltre Of this mHfdy and marshy
ground. bitches cut from several
uOints Of the circumference Of this
ground, running in the direction Of
this well, conveyingthe surfaee-water
thereto. There is a pumpin this well,
driven by a windmill, which forces
the water to the heighth Of about
thirty feet, into q trough running
about forty rods to the west bank,
where the water is deposited into a
large open cistern, holding several
Thousand barrels. From this cistern
the water is forced up by similar ma
ehinery about twenty-five feet in
heighth, to a trough leading to the
kettles IN the arch. In thi sarch there
are about twenty kettles, each holding
about thnec barrels Of water. But the
arch is 50 badly constructed that but
ten kettles have been made to boil by
the hottest fires yet made from dry
wood. Salt has been made at this in
sutufiOn, but at q great expense; and
thus far the works are q failure. Still

From the Canton NIol Pres

From the Canton MOI Pres.
we gave publicity, last week, to a
communication from Lancaster" adj
vOcating y change in the route Of the
M. &. M r. A. i. Railroad so as to di-
verge 'FRONT.' the present line at Lancas-
ter and connect with the Iowa system
Ofrailroads at Gainesville. In answer
TO the article referred to we now submit
the following statement showing that
no sdch chaageOf route can be adopted
underthepresent OhGTteT, o rim harmO-
NV with the ORIGINAL design Of this
great enterprise.
The charter requires tai road to go
through the north tier Of 00unties in
Missouri to the Missouri river, theter
minus not TO be nearertO the Iowa line
than fifteen miles, nor at any point is
tie road to be over thirty miles from
the Iowa line.
nFfe preliminary survey, made in
1857. through Lancaster, approached
o near the iowa line for the line
west. To 90 through Lancaster as that
line runs compels the company to go
too far north. hence the recent survey
south ofthat first line.
. The counties through which the
survey OflS67 runs, have acted liberaly
for the building ofthe road, and in Feb
ruary Putnam county votes on $4,000
for the extension.
a. At Brownville, the terminus ofthe
road a company is organized called the
BrOwnville & Fort Kearney Railroad
Company, who have raised c%Onsidera-
bic funds to continue the road to Fort
Kearney, which would give almost an
airline from New York to the Pacific.
The Committee on Internal Improve
ment In last Congress reported favor
able on bill granting to the Brown
vile and Ft. Kearney Company, l.
$50, O00. Last, though not least, all
the negotiations for building, ironing,
equipiDg and operating this road have
been based upon the idea of a through
road, and the present hattering pros
poets Of a wealthy road taking hold of
il are based upon this understanding.
These, we think, are sufficient rea-
sons why the company should not run
into Iowa at C~oatsyille or any other
point.
We have been familiar with the
doings and purposes of this company
we know they have acted consistent
in all their efforts to build q rOadifE0m
river 70 river through the north terOf
Missouri counties, and nothing that
they can control will bend them from
their purpose. They will build as far
west as the counties will give sufi-
cient aid, Lancaster will have q depot
located in good faith, as agreed in ta-
king the vote In that county.

senator Tfpton Re-EFeetod.

The Republicans Of the Nebraska
Legislature met in caucus last Monday
night and on the second ballot NOM
mated Hon. r. w, Upton, present in
cumbent, as Senator for six years, terra
commencing March 4th 1869. The
contest for Nh. TiptOn's seat was quite
warm, numerous able and prominent
gentlemen being anxious toserve their
country in the halls of legislation, but
Mr.. TiptOn's popularity and record
weretOO much to overcome, andh he was
triumphantly re-nOminated. AS q
Senator Mr.. Upton has been a decided
suo8ess and We are glad to know that
Nebraska has been, able to secure bis
services for SC long a term. Mr. Upton
has abundantiy shown that he will
never court nOtOriety or popularity at
the expense of right, and as a free, in
dependent, and fearless champion of
the rights Of the people he IS well
known to- every one: Ills many
friends in this seotiOOn congratulate
him on Success aud rejoice in his tFi-
umph!. WeareglRd tosee him returned
by suchia complimentary vote as he
received, aHd hope soon to. give Il
readers an accounted his faithful stew
artship and friendshipsfcF cur section.
Wefeel that in Mr.. Upton theweaker
portions Of Our State will find q fast
friend and earnest advocate.
