something in this wise

that we are not like unto these men, even these
missionaries. proud Pharisees. We rejoice and eX-
press our thanks before the nation that we are but

PROJECTED RAILROAD TO
LINCOLN. ...
Breaking Of Ground.
LINCoLN, June II. 81

LINCOLN, June II, 1861.
Editor Republican: This day Is one
that will long be remembered by tke
citizens Of Lincoln. At one O'Clock
in the afternoon the doors Of all the
places Of business were closed, and our
streets presented the appearance of
some national holiday, with marshRls
rushing to and fro, forming the BRO
eessiOn in front Of the Atwood H6dse,
At two o'clock the command march
was given, and the procession march
ing from Market Square down neaFly
to the banks OF Salt Creek, started for
the spot marked by Chief Engineer
ThielsOn, where the first sod Of the
Burlington and Missouri River Rail-
west OF the Missouri river, was 10 bo
removed.
Arriving at the foot Of "Sii street,
Col. James +. Philp0t, CHIEF Marshal,
announced to the largest crowd ever
assembled IN Lancaster county, the
object Of the meeting.
After prayer by Rev. III. i. Davis,
His Exeellency Gov. Butler was called
upon for q speech, and after three
rOusing cheers had been given for the
Burlington & Missouri River Railroad
buE OOhEElOE ACttQ y AEH NEAI ADNlIu"
prOate remarks upon the subject %
Railroads. Touching upon the rapid
growth Of our State since their intro
ductlOn TO our broad and fertile prRi-
ries, and the effect it would have upon
our city.
Having spoken fifteen minutes, ne
stated that he was q much better hand
at building roads than making speech
es upon that subject, and, in the midst
Of cheers, such as never before Dis
turbed the quietness Of this beautiful
valley Of Salt Greek, the Governor
seized the shovel, which was already
loaded with sacred sod, and broke the
first earth for the Burlington and
Missouri River Railroad, west Of the
Missouri river.
Hon. Thomas p. Kennard was next
called for, who spoke Of the first rail-
road eOmpleted % indianapolis, which
he witnessed but seemingly a short
time since, comparing the prospects Of
that great city, at that time, to those
Of Lincoln at the present, and assured
as that ere the same number Of wears
elapse, Lincoln will be 70 Nebraska
what indianapolis Is to Indiana.
Mr.. ThielsOn, the Chief Engineer Of
the road, was next called for, who
stated that speech-maklng was not his
forte, but one year from that time, the
18th day Of June, 1863, we would see
"him standing upon the cOW-catcheF
Of locomotive upon the same spot
from which this sod was bat iust
moved" (Cheers for Mr.. ThlelsOn and
the railroad"
The contractor was upon the ground
with squad Of men whom he imme-
diately set at work 1pOf1 the road. We
are assured by the officers Of the road
that the work will be pushed forward
with the greatest possible rapidity.
Our town IS full Of life Just now.
Many of the purchasers who attended
the sales are still with Us. Building
Is going on rapidly,
The crops all look well I'm this part
Of the country, especially the wheat,
which bids fair for heavier crop than
Il did last yeaf this time

Death of Henry J. Raymond.
NEW York, June 81.

NEW YORK, June 81.
Henry ]. Raymond, of the Times,
died suddenly this morning at 5
o'clock.
The Post gives the facts of Mr.. Ray
mOnd's death from the best authority,
as follows: Mr.. Raymond aecOmpaIi-
ed By his daughter, went to Green
wood Cemetry yesterday afternoon,
for the purpose Of selecting q family
lot. He intended to have the body Of
one Of his children, who died q few
weeks ago, removed from the vault
and re-inteFred. He returned 70 the
Times Office about five, and remarked
to the associate editors that he never
felt better in his life, except sad feel
ing Of fatigue consequent upon his
long walk through the CemetFY.
He left the Office about six, and pro-
ceeded to his residence on West 9Th
street, where remained until about 9,
to recover from the fatigue Of the af-
ternOOns Mr.. Raymond left the house
about 8, remarking to members Of his
family that he had an appointment TO
attend q political meeting. He was
seen shortly after walking Broadway,
and one or two friends who stood in
front of Wallack's Theatre, noticed his
elastic step and general appearance of
robust health. After attending meeting
he returned to his residence about II,
and soon as he had closed the door after
him he fell heavily upon the floor.
None of the inmates Of the house
heard the fall, however, having re-
tired for the night. About 8 O'Clock
this morning, one Of his children be-
came restless, and upon becoming full
ly aroused remarked she heard some
person breathing heavily. The per-
sons In the house were awakened,
and on descending TO the hallway,
Mr.. Raymond was found extended on
the floor, entirely unconeiOus,
breathing heavily and apparently
with great difficulty. He was
carried 70 his room and placed
on the bed and physicians sent
for, four OF whom arrived soon after,
who examined him and pronounced
him beyond all medical aid. Rhey
also declared the case 20 be apOplexy.
Mr.. Raymond fingered in an uncOn-
sciOus state till 5 O'clock, q. m, when
he died surrounded by his family. He
passed away apparently with little
pain.
The news Of his death caused much
excitement and very general regret
throughout the city. All downtown
hotels and newspaper offices displayed
their flags at half-mast as q mark Of
respect.
The Associated Press to-day adopted
resolutions expressive Of profound sOr-
row at the death Of MP. Raymond.

Fearful Condition Of Affairs In
the Illinois Penitemtlary
London, Ne6.

About ten days ago, a quarrel took
place between two cOnvicts while on
their way to the quarries, with a gang
from the prison under charge of
guards, which resulted intOa a desperate
fight with knives. Both the combat
ants were wounded, and one of them
so severely that he died on the follow
ing day. ug s. ...r
But the blOOdiest affray yet, occur
red on last Thursday. AS the con-
victs were setting down to dinner. q
quarrel occurred between two. large
and powerful men. A few words pass
ed, when both parties drew forth
large sharp pointed knives, and a
most terrific and deadly struggle en-
sued. They fought the entire length
of one of the long tables, stabbing and
striking alternately, and were not
seperated until they began to fail
from the loss of blood. The floor and
tables were bespattered with blood,
and the scene was one long to be re-
membered. They were both taken to
the hospital and one of them expired
in five minutes. His body exhibited
no less than half dozen fatal stabs.
The Other::was severely wounded but
survives yet. An inquest was held
over the body of the dead man by
Coroner Reese, but the jury could not
agree upon the verdict. This case
will probably come before the grand
jury.
Such is the condition Of affairs ex-
listing at present in the Illinois State
Penitentfary. There is no sort Of dis
cipline. The cOnvicts are allowed free
license to do as they please. They
knock down the guards at pleasures
and commit murder among themselvs.
And what is unheard in the prison
discipline, more than one half Of the
convicts are armed with knives and
murderous weapons. This being the,
case, an open revolt and the murder Of
scores Ofinnocent men is mOmentarily
expected. When we remember that
there are nearly twelve hundred des-
perate men confined in the penitentia-
~, for crimes of various grades, and
that more than one half of them are
armed with deadly weapons, we can
not avoid trembling at the consequent
ces which may be mOmentarily ex-
pected.

A Move 90 Make Judge Chase
President in IS52.

NEW YORK, June ia movement
has been commenced among some dis
satisfied Republicans for pressing
Salmon p. Chase for President in 1872,
and with the supposed intention Of
cOalescing with the Democrats. Hugh
Hastings, of the Commercial AdUeT-
tiseF, Dudley Field, Thomas G. Muir
ply and George Opdyke are mention
ed among the parties interested, and
two or three meetings have been held
to arrange plans. A meeting was ar
ranged for last night at the st. James
Hotel, but there were not enough
present to organize. Some who went
into the measure at first have hacked
out of it, on account of its strong leans
ings towards the Tammany Democrats
and a suspicion that it was intended
to carry conservative RepublicansintO
the DemOcratic ranks.

rare embroidery, sat Saul, King of
Israel. His tall, elegant form was
bent; his large beautiful eyes glared
wildly; and to look into thens was to
see the tempest of a soul. At times
he would rave; then he would mutter
strange words in low tones.
He was surrounded with wealth
and luxury. On tables carved from
the cedars of Lebanon, were salvers
of silver, exquisitely wrought, filed
with luscious fruits-fgs, olives and
pOmegranates-and golden gOblets
filled with wine pressed from grapes
gathered from the vine-clad valley of
Eshcol. His robes and the tapestry of
the room were of the richest shades of
Lydian dye. aca l3g
Servants stood ready to minister to
his wants. Around him were wise
men and poets. prophets and seers.
Wise men, with head bowed low,
whispered in q sad voice. Poets,
with the eye in q flre-phrenzy roll
ing" drank Inspiration from this wild
storm of the mind. Others gathered
glittering threads out Of which to
weave story which would give them
q name among the Immortal names
which were not born to die."
But what are wealth, talent, genius,
learning, to q mind not at rest?
The King of Israel was tOrmented
with an ''evil spirit from the Lord.n
A servant stepped forward, and
stood before the King and said:
my lord doth know that music can
drive the evil spirit from the troubled
soul. Shall I bring hither that come
ly youth, the son of Jesse; he is a
skillful player on the harp" -sl-.
The King said
"Bring hither David!n
The servant soon returned, bring
ing with him "the sweet singer of Is
rael. The proud step and lofty bear
ing told that he was born to command
and not to serve. Yet he bowed be-
fore the King; and the eye of young
David fell in gaze for moment upon
him, and his quick thought knew
that because of his rebelliOus heart,
would not serve Israel's God, that
Israel's. King was thus afflicted. In
sweet tones he said
Chow is it with my lord, the King,
to-day"
He then swept his fingers over the
harp-string, and such sweet sounds
came forth and f1Oated in the air, that
all hearts filled with rapture, and went
out after the great soul of harmony,
who "dwelleth in light unapprOacha-
ble"-whO giveth his children on earth
vision of Immortality, and fills their
heart with the melody of Heaven.
The cOuntenance of the King
changed. For at came to pass, when
the evil spirit from God was upon
Saul, that David took a harp, and
PLAYED with his hand; so Saul was
refreshed and was well, and the evil
spirit departed from him."
His ewes sOftened. A smile of peace
settled over his features; and his soul,
which was tossed like lost ship on a
stormy sea, became as quiet as the
still waters after q tempest has swept
over them. In subdued tones he said,
David, l perceive the God of Israel
is with thee. Thou hast found favor
in my sight. l must Sleep"
