Quarter Master has been i'll town is-
suing ratiOns 10 the he -dy and dcstl-
tutc, and will continue to issue every
twenty days until September. (At

Government had taken hold Of this
matter early last fall, as it ought to
have done, our people would have
been saved from the approbrions title

haps our own Legislature would have
been prompted to have assisted i'll the
matter of relieving suffering humani-
tv: thereby saving themselves from
the "Anathama,' which they justly
mcritcd by their cXtrava@ant l"9I>la-
ton of last fall, drawing from The
Treasury thousands OF dollars. and
then refusing TO do any thing to ben
eft the needy of the State. The pco-
| pie would have been socially much
happier. for as it now stands, i'll al
most every instance. there has grown

/ thereby making breaches which it
! seems that time can hardly heal. The
spring is rather late. and vet we have
=, had very good time to put i'll small
grain. Farmers are generally through
sowing. and still it is thought that
there i nearly three times as
much sOWcd rs there was last spring:
and now they are preparing for corn.
We had a very heavy rain Il few days
ago. which retards blowing Il little.
The most of the farmers seem to hayc
rs much hopes IAN abundant harvest

wears: Notwithstanding the failure ol
the past year.
Our quiet little town was thrown
into quite IN excitement the Other
day, by some one cspying what the!
supposed was inumIerable numbers o1
small grasshoppcrs; of course such &
discovery was enough to frightcn the
people of this country nearly out OF
their wits, as is the saving, "a burnt
child breads the fire" But we are
clad to inform yon that they were on
" few early cr:ckcts, ,.uppOsing that
spring had come, and it was time for
them to begin to crawl out and take

Correspondence. G
From Nebraska.

PERU, April 17th, 1879.
ED. REPUBLICLN when writing
to friends in Andrew, my thoughts
naturally return to the REPCBLICAN
which | yet consider as friend ever
dear to me. Though it has been sew
cral moons since have been able to
receive Il copy oft; but feel salts
fed that it is advancing forward
welding its mighty sword OF inilu-
ence and casting good fruit unto all
who are seeking and thirStin9 after
knowledge. Then if write anything
to the REPUBLICAN | shall feel and
act as if was writing to a friend i'll
deed.
Persons going from Missouri into
Nebraska will notice man things of
interest to them. such as difference i'll
farm Improvement, variety of soil,
climate and other things too nuEcr-
Gus to mention 1t appears strange
indeed to q Missourian to see the
farms, gardens, lots, yards and fields
lieing outside without fences as it is
in Nebraska. The cause of this is
they have u law in force here which
prohibits stock running out. and every
owner of stock is compelled to keep
it penned up. y difference in climate
is also pcrceivable. On Sunday last
we had u regular northwestern snow
storm, snow falling to the depth of
several inches and during this week
1t has been cold and blustery most OF
the time. The ice forming on waters
to the depth of several inches and
the ground freezing almost every
night, which of course makes the sea-
son backward and prevents the farm
ers from putting in their spring crops
But what Interests your humble cor
respondent most is the manner i'll
I which Nebraska is making such rapid
strides and developing such extraor'
binary educational advancement, il
has its magnificent Universities and
Normal institutions. among which
cannot refrain from mentioning, Is
the Normal School building at thi:
place. The building is an honor tc
the state and justly the pride of the
people living in its vicinity Th'
school is under the control Of DR.

JUST DECISION.--In a case ap-
pealed from the Supreme Court OF the
district of Columbia, the Supreme
Court of the United States has just de-
citIed thai d claim for service IS a loby-

was that complaicans should receive
twenty-five per cent. of the amount

The bill was passed. The Court held
that such contract created no lien up
