General Grants reception at Omaha
will be the most enthusiastic demon
stration ever witnessed in that city,
and will attract an immense attendance
of strangers from adj parts Of tins coun-
try. General Grant will rs.aain xr
Omaha over Sunday, that basng his
wish, and he will. be the guest OF Cen
eral Crook. In reply to an address by
a Salt Lake delegation, the General

making Speech, As | am suffering Sc
vere!y-and have been for aas hour or
two--from sprain in my Back, re-
ceived while preparing to change cars,
by sudden lunge of the cars on

only thing that has happened. to me to
mar the pleasure of my longcontlnued
iourney-indeed, tue 5rst thing OF the
kind that ever happened to me, and |
think it will be all right in day or

c. w. Lightner has brought suit
against the Central Pacific Railroad
Company to recover $2l.0O0, personal
damages sustained. Ga the 10Th OF
October, 1878, he was a. passenger on
the steamer Yosemite, bound to his
home in Napa, Cal. He alleges that
the company twas uumindful OF its du-
ties and obligations, and suffered him
to be assaulted, shot and badly wound
ed in the, nght ARR by drunken and
disorderly co-passenger, while the
steamer was passing South VALLEJO, in
Solano. county" In consequences, he
was confined in his bed for five weeks,
and unable to attend to his. swocation'
for two, months, and will eventually
lose the. arm, depriving him of his occu-
patton, ef civil engineer.

THE IRON TRADE AT PITTS
BURGH.

Notwithstanding the favorable reports
ErSt gnd West, rccar ling the improved
condition Of the iron tralc, Pittshur- h
manufacturers refuse 10 be comiOrted.
They declare that whatever ground FOR
rejoicing there may be in other local.
ties, there is none in Pittsburgh. They
complain OF close competition at neigh
boring points, AMI other agencies that
have tcndel 70 drorcH the trade Of that

olthe various Democratic caucus and sub
caucus committees had no business to
attend TO or speeches to make he would
move that the Senate 60 into executive
session." To Mr.. Anthony's disgust
Mr.. Herman presently rose and quietly
moved to adjourn, saying that while the
Democrats were willing TO help confirm
good nominations they would do so
when the motion for an executive ses--
sion was made without breach OF good
manners. The Republicans in some
CONSERVATION got Mr.. Anthony 10 ask
TO withdraw his remarks, but the motion
to adjourn was carried. The next ex-
ecutive session will be without prelim-

RAILROADS TO NEW RIVER.

From Ebert Fowler, T. the a,tor-
ney OF the New River Railroad Com

bilty that work on this important line
will begin sometime in June. ThcCpm-
pany have the promise ot five hundred

sinil. With this force, thcyrNpccf b. iu

Mountain RcroLi.
The iron ores of New River seem 10 hc
attracting more than one railroad enter
prise. We TO not know the route oi
the one mentioned by tie Herald, Int
presume it to be Simply 4 branch oithc
Chesapeake x Ohio. The hope that
Pittsburgh was reaching out in de-
tCrmined way to secure the benefit of
the ores in that locality gave to West
Virginia the promise OF central road
from one end Of the STATE n the other
that would have been Of iuculablr
advantage. That enterprise seems to
have met with Il back-S,t, though we
hope it is only temporary.
In the meantime, however, there are
faint whisperingS that the South Western
Pennsylvania road will shortly become
competitor for the route over which
the Pittsburgh Southern had been pro-
iecting. 1.-THE former company under
takes the enterprise it will have more
substantial basis than in the case Of the
latter, and road built by that COM
pauy would be well equipped and con-
Quoted on business principles. 1t would
be an acquisition to the State, well
worth striving for

EXTENSION OF The WAX
BENwOOD.

The Bellaire Leadsr does not think
the extension Of the ''Pewiky" railroad
TO Benwood would be easily practicable.
The principal difficulty susv, sted is OBJ
tanning q right of way" Il SAYS:
There is really very little marin al
lowed the road &C. build their track, and
il viii necessarily be rather expt nsive
ia construction. At the very outset
there will have to be a bridge built
across the mouth OF the creek, involving
considerable outlay, and then the
river bank will have to be strengthened
and walled at several points, a difficulty
encountered 10 this day BY the Il. & y.
company; bat the principal trouble will
be to get the right OF way. The b. 4 D.
owns the railroad privileges on
the southern side OF the creek, together
with wharfage privileges. and any at
tempt to construct q road through their
property wiz be stoutly resisted BY the
corporation.

Australian Oranges in England

Some OF our orange growers should
try the English. market with choice
oranges. If oranges from Australia
can bring 8 9. and 8 C. in Covent'gar-
den Market ours should do the same.
An English exchange says:
By the Steamship Lusitania a novel
importation, alconsignment OF oranges
and lemons from an estate near Ade-
laide, South, Australia, reached Messrs.
Howcroft IL Watkins, of IA Tovlstock-
row, Covent.garden. In announcing
the despatch of the fruit the grower. a
customer to whom the firm has supplied
seeds. stated that he should not have
thought of sending oranges such long
distance but for the fact that they were
now in season and cheap in Adelaide.
The consignment consisted of one case
of lemons, one case of large Naples or
anges, and eight cases of st Michael's
oranges. They we're packed in very
dry, fine, brown sawdust, and those IN
one case, by way of experiment., were
also wrapped in paper. A few OF the
oranges with paper wrappings showed
signs of minute brown mould in
bruised places those packed free in the
sawdust were in perfect condition. AS
fine oranges are at present being sold,
retail, in Covent-garden Market at Sd.
and 4d. each, it is believed that the VEN
ture will yield a fair return to the grower,
and the success of the experiment may
lead to the development of a regular
trade which will increase the variety of
our autumn fruits.
