The proposition to make Gen Han

Arbor Day in Nebraska occurs this
year on tie second Wednesday in
April, and the Legislature will be pc
titioned to make it legal holiday
The Importance of tree-plaDting is
keenly appreciated i'll Nebraska, aud
it would be well if the people of other
States felt it as deeply.
Experience seems to show that
good business location may be made
almost anywhere if the requisite vital
ity, energy and business talent be d.
rected to it. Buffalo or PittebuIg
might have doue what has been
achieved by Chicago ard St Louis
had tho oa.ao eIuOunt OF vim been ex-
erted in those places. And no one
can feel any doubt that the concentIa-
ton at New York is artificial who sees
no people pass.
The Washington Capital says: In
few days Grants Hippodrome ard
Barnum's Hippodrome will commence
their Summer travels. Both are curl
GUS, expensive, and not likely to be
permanent. The world never had and
probably never viii have but one
Grant and one Barnum. Grant has
got the biggest elephant. Al least the
Republicans lelieve SO. Give the
old man another chaucr."
A Washington dispatch says: ''Gov,
Hendricks, OF Indiana, prominently
mentioned as the next Democratic
candidate for the Presidency, has en-
gagged the finest suite Of rooms at Ole
nf the principal hotels here for the eE-
tire session of the next Congress. This
fact has awakened the few aspirants
for that honor to a realization of the
he Irness of the time when tho Demo
cratic National Executive Committee
will meet and decide upon the place
where the Nominating Convention
shall be held. Gov. Hendricks, it is
said, means to take the field in person,
and looks to the Democratic influence
in the next Congress to insure his
success"
The Eighth district club of German
Republicans, the strongest direct Or
gan zation of New York city, ard com
prising l 400 members, has seeded
from the German Republican GENITAL
committee, and has published mani
testo denouucing the custom house
politician as corrupt and servlle, ex-
pressing q determination 10 longer to
vote with them, and calling upon all
German assembly dis rict clubs 10
withdraw t1cir delegates from tie
present German central committee
and form a new organization, over
which the custom house aud naval
office-seekers have no control. Over
one-half of the German Republican
central committee hold government
offices.
Pichbnck, although avowing in
Washington that he was delighted
with the Senates action in his case,
wrote 70 his friends i'll New Orleans ir
an entirely different strain. Cne col
ored statesman received a letter fairly
bursting with wrath at Gov. Kellogg,
and full of threats against that pa
triot's life. In it Piuchback requested
that his return. during the latter Part
of this week, be made the occasion OF
a triumphal ovation; that a ''spontau-
eous" public reception be arranged,
and that ne be met at the depot with
a procession, tnrchlights and brass
bands. and escorted like a coIquerer
to bis home. All of the expense he
would pay himself. With this de-
monstration as a send off, he proposed
| to begin at once the formation Of
new party, whose chief purpose would
be the destruction of Kellogg, Pack
