Beatrice q Too! Market.

Another important branch Of bust,
hess has been added to our list, by
Messrs. Smith Bros. who have made
arrangements with manufacturers 10
Northern New York, by which they
are enabled to establish a market here,
and at all times pay the highest cash
price for wool in either large or small
lots. Tiis Is important to wool grow
ers, and no doubt will induce many to
Increase their focks, and encourage
Others who have been contemplating
the raising Of sheep to embark in the
business. Heretofore the wool In this
section has been picked up by specu-
iators from St Joseph, st. Louis or
Chicago, At about their own prices.
MIR. }. + Smith has had considerable
experience in the business, having
served IN apprenticeship with a prom
incnt wool dealer in New York.
+, At present they are occupying the
building formerly used As a queens
ware store, on Court street., which
they now have filed. In fact we r

IT is stated that the grasshoppers
have almost totally destroyed the corn,
oats and potato crops in a large dis
trict located between Schuyler, Colfax
county, and Lone Tree. Merrick coun-
ty. They we're so thick on the rail
road track in said district recently,
that freight train was delayed abou,
Two hours, and the Express lost some
time. Farmers in that locality are
said to be very much down hearted,
a. indeed they have cause to be. The
exact extent of the damage we are not
able to learn, but it is bad enough at
best.
Up to this writing no material dam-
age has been done to crops in this
county, except in small patches on the
island. where they have been feeding
on the corn aud late oats. We have
hopes hat their visitation will not tall
upon our tarmeas. and that the dam
age done east OF Us may not be SO great
as it is at present though, to be.

and this crop, which is fully an aver
age one, is about out OF danger -

Removal 0: the Iaai cIcs.

An order has been ISSUED aud pub
lished for the removal of the l.. S
Land Office from this place Lowell
to Bloomington. The removal is one
Ct those incxplicable things that some.
times occur in Tho progress of events.
Three quarters Of those who will
enter land in the district are better
con modated here than they Will be
at Bloomington. and two-,hirds OF
them will pass through Lowell. in
reaching their location, or visit it or
it, vicinity for supplics-and have the
visiting Of Bloomington As just So
much extra and unnecessary travel and
expense.
Lowell is near n side of the dis
trict. but II has railroad and business
facilities that are utterly wanting at
Bloomington. Besides. Bloomington
Is As far Ia one side of the district as
Lowell to the either.
We therefore recre, the removal.
But, We presume II conuot now be
helped, aud there is no use crying for
split milk. Lowell can and will live
withou, it, The cent settlement in
the southern part Of the county will
compensate for what she thus loses,
and il will produce a healthier and

pEEcuER.s STATEMENT.

All who have read Beecher's full state
msnt, 80 voluminously reported in the
morning papers, and also his nswers on
cross-e1amination. will agree that he
makes q very good showing. and speaks
with the bold frsnkness OF injured inno-
cen.s. His explanations, however. are
not altogether satisfactory, and need
further confederation. We have pre-
cious little sympathy for Tilton. regard
ing him as particularly ~crotehstty, by
pocritical and pusillanimous, and as for
Moulton, he does not seem to be acting
on the square toward Beccher, but svi-
IDENTIFY trying to make capital for Tlton.
II Beecher really is innocent, which. for
the benefit Of religion and all that is
good in society. we hope he is, no one
was ever the victim of a i%ouller, eruelleE
Islander. The following is the conclusion
OF Beecher's statementto the Committee,
1t has a good ring to it:

down the law Of honor in regard 10 tht

own writings are concerned. there
is not letter or document
which | am afraid TO have exhibited, and
authorize any and all calls upon any
living person TO produce and print forth
with whatever writings they have OF
any source whatever. II is time for the
sake Of dccency and public morals that
this matter be brought TO n head. IL is
an open pool OF corruption, exhalinS
deadly vapors. For six weeks the
nation has risen up and sat down ON
scandal. Not a great war nor n reyo-
LUTON could moro have filed the news
papers than this question Of domestic
trouble, magniied a thousand fold, and,
like a sore spot ON the human body,
drawing 10 itself every morbid humor in
the blood. Whoever is buried with 1t,
1t is time that this abomination be buried
below all touch or power Of resusei-
tatiOn.

TuE Sutro Dq>RdsH. claims to have a
female correspondent in San Francisco.
This may be, but the style is intensely
Sutronian. In her (r last letter she
says: ''Mr. Sutro's tunnel lectures have
given US so good an idea OF his honesty
and capacity that, IL left to an unpreju-
diced San Francisco tribunal to decide
the matter, his election might be looked
upon as a foregone conclusion" We
beg to inform this amiable female (l)
that sutro's lectures in Virginia City

stead of the United States Senate
his peculiar talents would more
adom 8 State Lunatic Asylum or
another State institution more largely
patronized. This variance in the effect
Of Sutro's haranSues are doubtless all
owing to the difference in altitude. The
air is thin up hore and people see things
