The Kew Postage Law.

By recent change in the postal
laws, subscribers 10 newspapers pub
iisied in the county where they re-
side are required to pay postage, tie
same as upon papers published else
where. The nes0 TAR goes into e6ect
on nert Tuesday. On weekly news
papers, the rate is fire cents q quarter,
In advance. This may be paid at the
office where the paper is received.
All further arrangements will be made
or information given, by the postmas-
ters at the respective offices.
We confidently believe that this
law will be repealed at the next ses-
sion of Congress indeed we doubt if
1t was intended to pass il at all. It
passed in the form of q clause attach
ed TO the appropriation bill, where it
received little or no attention. The
provision requiring postage in the
county formed no part of the bill aboi-
ishing the franking privilege, and
could not be classed among the abu-
ses which this act was intended to re-
form. Upon the presumption, there
fore, that the law viii not remain in
force more than six months, the en-
tire amount which each subscriber
will be called upon topay, in addition
to the regular Subscription, Will be the
triiiing sum OF ten cents. This, it will
be horne in mind, does not go to the
publisher, but 10 the Post Office De-
partment, through the Postmaster
where the paper is received.

The printed report of DR.. Chas. f.
Stewart, uperintendent OF the Ne
hraSka State Insane Asylum, is now
before US. The contents of this i0cu-
ment were substantially cOmmunica-
ted to the Legislature at the last ses-
sion. There is, however, one fact con
Dected with the printing ofthis repor;
that deserves mention. 1t was priu-
ted hy the AdrcrffseT office at Brown
vile. contrary to the constitution ana!
laws of this State. What claims has!
the dducrtiscT To this class 0f
printing and did not the State pay
about two hundred per cent more for
this work than would have been paid
had it been done hy the regular con
tractor for State printing?
We will quiet the perturbed soal OF
the Omaha Bee. from the columns of
which we clip the above, by explain
ing that the report spoken of was in
addition to the one printed by the
State Journal at the expense of the
State, and was paid for at the individ-
ual expense of DR.. Stewart. Unlike
the one printed by the State that pub
Iished at this Office embraced the new
Insane law and engraving of thenew
Assylnm. Had Dr. Stewart the right
to thus use his own money!

literature. Here again essay writing
is introduced. The one on Mrs.
Browning was excellent, giving fair
delineation of her lofty character
and beautiful literary productions.
The class must remember although
exhilerated with drinking from the
enchanted fountain, they have taken
but few steps up the heights which
lead 10 Mount Olympus. That they
have had but drop. and eaten but a
morsel of the nectar and anbrosia OF
the Gods.
Voice culture in the elocution class
was striking. There were some voic-
es there OF great sweetness. and char
mingly modulated. Could this same
culture continue, there were voices
that could hold an audience enchant-
ed.
The closing exercises of the model
school was charming. The children
must have had careful training to ap-
pear so well. Their recitations were
i'm clear distinct voice. Their gym
nastics were gracefully done, time
nearly faultless. The only defect was
in position of feet. The tableauX
were very expressive. But the CHIEF
a. 'OuUre of the performance was the
tableaux of faith, hope and charity.
It was perfect. The entire exercises
expressed refined taste, careful train
ing and artistic skill.
The exercises of the Philomethean
Society was very fair literary effort.
The rehearsal of the Witch's Daugh-
ter by Jessie Balm. was very fine.
The essay of Mr.. BOydston on the
great reformer, Martin Luther, was
gotten up in good style and deliver
ed In good taste.
The discussion or WOnan's rights
was very common place But l will
forbear any severe criticisms, ae
things ordinary will get mixed up
with things more excellent. Both
sides OF the question were equally
"null and void" Singing and music
of high order.
The attendance was not large, the
woather so oppressively warm. the
cause perhaps, yet some distinguish
ed educators were in attendance from
different parts of the State.
The State Normal School is doing
well, and it is hoped VIII continue to
do well. The tone, and all the influ-
ences surrounding it, speaks favora-
bly, for its future. It's location i
healthy, and beautiful for situation
The students all look well, and are
cheerful and happy. 1t is To he hop
ed the friends of this institution win
cling to it, work for it, and not let
the enemy get the advantage. Ne
braska needs Normal Schools, and
one strong, healthy tchool, with IA
cilities for doing good work, is better
than many sickly, feeble schools
without the means Of profitable work
ing. May the Normal School at Pc
ru, long live and prosper, and let its
light shine, with DIR. Morgan to
guide it through its perils, and re-
joice in its triumphe.

must meet this question squarely,
and settle it in accordance with the
popular demands, or retire at the

will it be for their political welfare If

already in talk about repeal. Horace

may have been silly, but the man

Congress adjourned on Friday last,
10Th, 10 Jan. 5th. The House was
determined to have n long holiday
vacation; the Senate feebly objected,
but yielded. The Harhcye says cit
was very cheap exhibition of sub
lime virtue. Under the salary grab
law each member will pocket about
f400 for his very valuable services to
the country during the recess"
While the members are at home
they will hear some very plain hints
in reference TO their milk-and-water
manner Of doing business and it is
to be hoped they will go back wiser
IL not otherwise lbetter men. They
must realize sooner or later that they
are sent to Washington to do tho
will Of the people; that the people
demand action, immediate and une-
quivocal, upon some o. the questions
with which Congress has thus far
shown disposition to sport.

The Virginius was surrendered on
the morning of the 10th inst, at Bo-
hia Honda, harbor on the northern
cost of Cuba, sixty miles southwest
Of Havannn, to the American steam
er Dispatch. At latest word she was
on her way to some unknown north
ern u. S. port.
The surviving prisoners of the Vir-
ginius have also been delivered to
the American ship Juniata, and have
arrived at Key West. They were
by the barbarous Spaniards kept in
rags and dirt in their prison pen, and
and kept in entire ignorance of their
prospective release until they were
marched out, as they supposed to be
slaughtered. Priests We're among
them taking their dying confessions,
and imploring them to look to God
for pardon. When they saw the Ju-
niata, flying the Stals and Stripes,
and realized that their release was
assured, they were wild with joy
embraced each other, cried, and au.
dibly thanked the Almighty foi
their deliverance from their dun
geon and death. The night before
the Spanish soldiers were excited to
riot by rumor of the contem plated
surrender. A large number visited
the Governor and begged permission n
to capture the Juniata, averring that
they could do it with knives alone.
The Juniata was accompanied by the
Kansas and Piuta. Their guns were
trained upon the city and ready to
open fire in moment. The officers
Of the ships regretted that the Gov
ernor did not comply with the re-
ques Of the volunteers, as they We're
confident of their ability to have re-
pulsed the enemy had they been at

Congressman Whitthorn, OF Ten
nessee, in urging the repeal OF all
taxes on tobacco and whiskey, puts
his argument in this way "Give the
boys chance. You have always
been throwing obstacles in their
way. These articles are no longer a
luxury but necessity, and ought to
stand on an equality with tea and
coffee. Give the boys chance TO
take one drink without swallowing
more tax than spirits"

EDITOR V0TER:-In your issue Of
the 18th inst, in speaking Of the elec-
ton Of Senator Carpenter to the posi-
ton of President pro tenn of the Sem
ate, you suggest possible reason for
that otherwise unexplainable action
Of the Republican members of that
body: That it WAS to prevent his vot-
ing-against the repeal Of the salary
law of the last Congress. Now, /
concede that an explanation right
there is badly needed ,.hnt tha ane
suggested, / think, is hardly suffi-
cient for the emergency, for the rea-
son that, even in the event OF the
Vice President being absent when
that measure comes TO a vote, thus
placing Carpenter in the chair, he
would still be entitled to his vote as
Senator. A member Of a body does
not lose his rights as such by being
made presiding Tor any other officer
thereof unless it carries with it tho
vacation Of the former position. If
Mr.. Carpenter had been elected Vice
President it would have vacated his
seat on the floor of the Senate; but
being elected President Of the Senate
(even permanently, as in the case of
Mr.. Atchison, I853-7) would have no
such effect. He would still be the
Senator from Wisconsin.
For example take the Speaker Of
the House. Is Mr.. Blaine's district
without representative because he
has been elected presiding officer Of
that body? Hardly, / think. And
Mr.. Editor, if you will take the trou-
bic to look over the files of the G{obe
you will find the Speakers vote Oc-
casionally recorded among the ayes
and nays, not as Mr. Colfax or Mr..
Blaine, but as Mr.. Speaker.
While / am willing that that &C
ton should be explained, / must say
frankly that j cannot receive the one
offered, nor do think Of one / could
receive unless it is one that would
explain the whole transaction out Of
existence. RADICAL.

The following is the full text of the
bill passed by the House. This bill
is known as the Hurlburt substitute
for the Hale bill:
SECTION /. That from and after the
passage Of this act, the compensation
Of Senators, Representatives aud del
egates shall be at the rate Of $4,000
per annum, payable monthly, and in
expenses of each Senator, Represent
atiyes aud delegate in going 10 and
returning from the seat Of govern
ment, once in each session, to be GER
Tilted in writing by each.
SEC. .. That the compensation OF
the Speaker OF the House OF Repre-
sentatlVes shall be 81 900 in Hidition
torh3s pnyae Repls sentative, amount.
ing in all to 5000; and that Of the
Vice President shall be the same
amount, with the same allowance for
travelling expenses as hereinbefore
provided.
SEC. 3. That all laws and parts OF
laws inconsistent with the provisions
Of this act nre hereby repealed.
SEC. 4. That the Secretary Of the
Treasury Is required to cover into
the Treasury all sums that may re-
main undrawn, or which have been
received, as Increased compensation
under the provisions Of said act, APP
proved March 8, 1873, which shall
have or may come into his possession
by the return thereof.
This bill, upon going to the Senate,
was referred TO committee, which re-
ported All amendment in the nature
of substitute repeating the act Of
March Sd, 50 far as il relates to the
Increase of pay TO Congress and its
employees, and fixes their salaries at
the rates existing prior to March Sd !;
also fixing salaries of Cabinet officers
at 5000, and requiring the Secretary
Of the Treasury to cover into the
Treasury all undraWn or returned
back pay.
Thus the matter now stands. The
Senate, which was least expected to
favor repeal. is shaming the House
for it's lack of earnestncss and decis-
ion upon the subject.
