Time whirls Us along the downhill
path Of life with the velocity of loco
motive; but We have one comfort-we
can make love on the road. What
the negro preacher said of Satan may
be said of love =" Where he finds
weaker place dere he creeps in There
is a warm corner even in the coolest
heart and somebody, if that somebody
can only be found, was made expressly
to fill it. Thousands of both sexes
live and die unmarried simply for the
want of a proper introduction to one
another. What an absurdity There
is not a woman nor a man of any age
who might not find a suitable partner
by using the proper means. The fact
is, that affection is snothered, choked
down, subdued and paralyzed by the
forms and conyentionaities Of this
etiquettish world Society" attaches
q ball and chain 10 the natural feelings
of the heart. The fair girl with her
bosom running over with the purest
love for q worthy object must take as
much pains to conceal the fact as if it
were deadly sin, and heaven had not
implanted within our bosoms the tender
spark and babe Us "to love and be
loved Is this natural? No. it is
artificial. Why should innumerable
marriages be prevented by chilling
rules and penalties? Nature is mod
est, but she Is not starched up prude!

THE CHAMPION CORN CROP OF
EBRASkA.

The soil anl climate of Nebraska
are most favorable to farming, Indian
corn grows luxuriantly aud the smaller
cereals also thrive. The productions
of Nebraska do not appear in, the u.
S. census reports before 1860; aud
then the whole corn production Of the
territory was much larger than
the State, its western limits being the
the summit of the Rocky mountains
was only l,4S2,0S0 bushels. IN
1870 the corn crop of the State OF
Nebraska western limit Of which
is the base of the Rocky mountains =
was 4,736,7l0 bushels; and the agr-
cultural returns of the Department at
Washington for 1878, gave the corn
for that year, which was a bad year
for Indian corn, at Il ,OOO,0O0 bush
els. a.
These figures exhibit the rapid pro-
gress of agriculture in Nebraska, for
what may be said of corn is equally
true of other productions. In the
fertile soil aud genial climate OF the
State, corn yields abundantly, and is
a safe crop. There are broken lands
where year after year, the produce has
averaged 81 bushels TO the acre; but
this is outdone by the champion crop
of 1878.
Tne afidavits on which the $50
premium for 1873 was awarded. have
just been published by the State
Board of Agriculture.-The owner was
Magnus NJ Nelson, of Cass County.
His champion crop was grown On a
Geld Of thirty-fve acres-the second
crop on the same ground, which was
prairie broken in 1871 The blowing
cost 81 % per acre, the planting 40
cents; the cutivating 81 80; the
harvesting Sl.25- total expense per
acre Sl75. The yield was an average
Of 9l3 bushels per acre. which was
certainly wortk not less than 40 cents
per bushel on the farm. The variety
ct the corn was the Mahogany; and
the weight So lbs. to the bushel.

GOVERNOR sbsN.

In spite of the efforts of politicians,
General John A. Dis was rcnomnatcd for
governor at the New York republican state
convention, Wednesday. In and by this
act the convention simply recorded the
popular will 1t is fortunate nomination
for the honest masses, it Is unfortunate for
the mere politician and the dishonest
trcksters. Governor Dix has never been
an office seeker, yet he has held almost
every Office that it was in the power of the
people, legislature or Presidents to confer
upon him. A judge, district attorney,
United States Senator, foreign minister,
postmaster of New York city, Major Gen
cral in the army of the United States, gov
ernor of the state of New York, and these
are hardly 1.-THE of the offices held by
him. And when we consider that each
and every of ,hesc offices 10, ,,,., ,,.,i.
out solicitation on his part-and some of
them accepted at a personal sacrifice, be-
cause he could be Of service TO his country,
or state, in her hour Of need-we
may form some idea Of tie man
ncr of man he is Is it any
wonder, then, that the honest masses of
the people desired the continuance of such
a man as their governor? l. it any won
der that the politicians and tricksters de-
sired his defeat and TO assure it would
have worked for weeks ana months? 1t
n1,fT, to IL
nations. The people turned out in their
might and compelled the denomination of
John A. Dix. We may, also, congratu-
late ourselves that his election is an as
sured fact Two months ago it might
have been a matter of doubt, but it is su
no longer. The 'acting governor OF
Louisiana reelected Governor Dix by his
little side show in New Orleans. Ii is NJ
wonder that their movements struck terror
to the hearts of the New York democracy
because it blasted their last hope. The re
suit is as it is, and the country is to b'
congratulated thereon. If John A. DIX il
not too old for governor, and 1t is conceded
that he is not if John a. Dix has made
wise, able and honest governor, as it il
conceded that he has, has not Vernon

They are men of the same age, class, train
ing and school of politics. and it is for
tunate thing for the people that they selec
such men for their executive officers.

SECOND DISTRICT.

As q general rule we believe that the in
iects for profitable discussion by the press
of other states. For this reason they
should be avoided, As to every general
rule there are exceptions, SO there are eX-
ceptions to this. The late unhappy con-
dition of affairs in Louisiana gives us an it,
lustraton of case where it became not
only the right but the duty of the press OF
all the states to consider and discuss her in
tcrnal affairs. The reason why it then be-
came right and proper for the press of all
states to discuss and consider her condition
was, not SO much because it was her in
tcrnal affairs that were being considered as
certain general principles applicable to all
the states alike. So we have held, and
acted upon the doctrine, that the press Of
one congressional district hid no right to
interfere with or attempt to control the
congressional nominations about to be
made in other districts, 70 be sure,
in one sense, the state and the whole
nation has a general interest in the individ-
uals who compose congress. For congress
makes laws for the whole nation, not for a
particular congressional district. Blu,
when the question comes up, "Who shall
represent particular district in congress"
then we contend and insist, as a genera
rule, that the particular district itself is tt
make the selection without outside nierfer
cnce or any attempt at control from TIN
outside, unless n general principle is in
volyed. Who knows the qualifications o
the residents of the first district of Califor
mia for members of congress ?-thc resi-
dents of that, or some other district. Ar
the people of Vermont as well qualified I
determine that question rs the voters O
the district? Acting upon these principle
and for these reasons, we refrained frof
all interference in the canvasses for tn
nominations of members Of congress in tn
first and second district of Vermont Nc
a line or word will be found in refereno
thereto, In our columns, until after Il
