Many old friends called to see them while there, who were 1 urgent in their demands for a visit at their homes : but owing to the warm weather and nervous prostration consequent upon "tearing up" and leaving the old for a new home, Mrs. M. was obliged to excuse herself to her friends, with one exception. Mr. Thos. TF. Miles presented his case in such a forcible way that Mrs. Millikan nnd the children were bifcen to his home in the country, in a carnage seni for thei ' accommodation.

Senator Morton at St- Louis,

The telegraph gave the fi following synopsis of the remari of Senator Mor - ton at his late reception at St. Louis. Thetterences of the great War Governor always command attention, but on this occasion be said some things which ousrht i to sink deep into the hearts C all lovers of equal rights. lie jvas speaking to the angry Actions of thJ once powerful Re-IublicaipartofMisurj.-aii4, bia remarks on Republican dissensions were rtM. only applicable to the local situation, but a!so to malcontents throughout the Union. It would be well, indeed, for the cause of free government in America if Radicals would endeavor to discuss their differences like brothers and comrades, remembering that every rond that leads out of the Republican party goes straight to e Uemocr.itic cainp ;

New questions will spring up from time to time, and we should try to dispose of them as they come. But we should not have too many irons in the fire at one time. The republican party ,s the great reform party of the country. It has consum-1 mated more and greater reforms in the ! course ot ten years than all the parties that have cone before it. But we have ; done one thing at a uuu,, dim neu we have done one great work we have taken up the next, and so we shall go, and if there are reformers who think the republican party is not traveling fast enough for them, let me ask them if there is ai y other party they can go to, that promises any reform at all. The spirit of progress and reform is the essential spirit of republicaniMn, and we shall enact the great reforms required for this country from time to time as the people are ready for them, and as the condition of the country and reason shall demonstrate their necessity. Therefore I say to ail reformers, be not impatient. You have more to hope for in u,e ay oi reiorm, irom the republican , VnT ,nan J"ou nave ,roni an' new Vy lhat can Pssibly he found.

There are but two parties in this country now, and there will be but two parties for some years to come. What a decade may do,' what 20 years may do, we can not tell, but there is no probability of there being a third party formed with any great national character i during the next two, four or even six y'rs. It is therefore simply a choice between the republican and democratic parties. Every ; road that leads out of the republican party leads into tho democratic party. Everything that tends to weaken the republican y, tends to strengthen the democratic Part-V- 11 makes no difference whether 11 ls !ndecd m that ? or not' tLat ,he ausoiuic anu inevnaoie enect oi it. tv naiever weakens the democratic party strengthens the : republican party. The senator then passed to the subject of amnesty, and said that but one disability remains upon those engaged in the rebellion, and that is, that no man who had taken an oath to support the constitution ! of the United F Utes and afterward com"fe lion, shall be obliged to hold office. Jeff Davis has as much right to vote in Mississippi as any man in the state, or any man in Missouri. The class of men who arc covered by the 14th amendment is not very large not more than 30,000 in all the United States. As a member of the senate of the United States, I have never large not more . refused to vote to relieve the disabilities j of any man who has asked for it over his o.yn signature in good faith, and I'm prepared to continue to vote in that way, with some exceptions. 1 did refuse to vote for one mail who applied, because, in addition to being a rebel, he bad been a very bad guerrilla. But, ray mends, there is a class of men engaged in lhat rebellion whom I could never vote to relieve. I do not refer to the masses of those who are under disability by the 14th amendment, but I refer particularly to those who were in the congress of the United States, and went out of it and organized the rebellion, those men who had been educated by the government as soldiers and who had left our army and carried their swords over to the rebellion. So far as that was concerned, I, for one, will never vote to re 3kre them. As far as Ihe general am nesty to the others may be concerned, I shall 9 extremely liberal, but to the au thora ani creat ors of the rebellion, such men as Dav&j, and Toombs, and Brecken

I am not willing to instruct positively that this rebellion was no crime, a mere political difference a mere question between parties by voting to admit again to the congress of the United States, it may be even to the presidency, the very men who made that rebellion, and were the cause of all suffering and sorrow.- Punisnmem nas gone Dy, nouotiy nas been ex- ...

The stnator discussed the civil sen ice toward her social reform. -Some might reform. He said President Grant had re-! infer from this that Omaha needs reformcommended reform in that direction, and j ing- Perhaps she does to some extent, as

had, under the act of congress, appointed commissioners to examine the subject and ! report to him.

He hoped they would present something practicable to congress. Our civil service has many imprel'ections many of which arise out of the imprefeclions of human nature and cannot be removed except by improving human nature. It has lieen suggested that government clerks aad sulmrdinates should holdoflice for lite lie -M.-t,iill Tuii-oi- I'm. . we want no ,.f - ... jf tue supreme court were to be made ' over ami in we wnnlil nm nut men n i, I for life Tcn lhoil8and c)erks uml - . ..

That might be good, i but he was not sure. He did know, however, that had such a law been in force when the rebellion broke out th3 government would have been lost, for a majority of all the employees at "Washington were iu svmnatliv with the rebellion and if they could not have been i removed the government could not have i j WHi.vr(1 olir riv;l nll I it3 impt.rfec;ions taken as a wllolC) was j thc in tl , , , , , ; changc it f()r any of Uiu Eurol)ean SJS. j tems Thcy are not adanted to ourcoun- I trr vi uie same time nc said I belong to tne great Republican reform party. e ; want to make any reform in that branch that we can, and we will do it, and allow me to say, in justice to Gen. Grant, that he appears to le the first man that has taken a practical step in that direction. Of course I do not refer to bills that have been offered in congress, because there ! has been a number of them. But I want ! to say to our democratic friends who now appear to lie very much in favor of civil service reform in their argument lefore the people, that during the period that party was in power, and when the civil sen ice was carried on in a much inferior manner to what it is now, that such a suggestion as that of civil sen ice reform was never made. If reform in civil service does come, it lias to come through the republican party. He then discussed the questions of tariff reform and taxation at considerable length, but presented little beyond his well known views on these subjects. The audience listened to the senator with marked attention, and very frequently loudly applauded him. ConiiECTEn Table op Mkascbes.

Omaha Her Growth, Prosp acts

and Advantages,, i hi NUMBER IY. Of the advantages of Omalia I havi had occasion to refer to spine extentin previous letters. Of the advantages she may offer, as time develops her growth, I forbear to speak, except to reiterate an assertion made in my last letter, viz : Omaha ioffeiis chances, for advantageous investment of capital, notwithstanding the high rents and the exceeding high prices of real estate. ;"- - Of the character of her citizens, I have spoken, and I have this much more to say, and I say it for the sole purpose of correcting if possible many of the false impressions still existing w ith regard to the moral status of Omaha as a community. It must be admitted that Omaha was founded and built by a certain class of in dividuals who were looking more intently after their pecuniary affairs than the mor- . . . , . n mc uij , uitKi suucim ui wusuquence. In fact there was not sufficient 'moral stamina in the city to enforce law and order. Crime, even amounting to lawlessness, and all manner of evil practices, together with the degenerating influences of unrestrained licentiousness, were the natural consequences of a lack of wholesome and stringent law. But, be it said to her credit, she has completely cleansed herself of the evil, and to-day the moral status of Omaha will compare fa vorably with many of the older cities of the Union, than whom she is less pretentious. She has a law in force regulating the liquor traffic, also one closing the saloons on the Sabbath ; a social evil law j av nas uone iniicn towarci abatinS e raffic of virtue and rendering less attractive its attendant vices. These n . .1 .1 i-n.. . . . ) . 1. 1 f 1 T tivituuiiigus mxi ueii ii nerseii wiucn will be looked upon as sriant strides d a!1 other cities peopled and built under similar circumstances. Of the various advantages of Omaha mere are uui two omers 01 wiucn l desire to speak, viz: her religionsandeducation--1- Of the advantages derived from these to potent lowers for refining mankind, Omaha may justly be proud. It is with no li,t,e P'c that I speak thus of our city. It is the realization of a plear-ant reflection to know that where crime and immorality constituted the chief element, and where the same resjiect was paid to Sabbath as to other days of the week, and no more, we now see the Christianizing influences of a better class of people, and hear the simultaneous chimes uf scores of church bells on Sabbath morning. The principal denominations, having the most imposing edifices, are the Methodists (first and second societies), the Presbyterians, Baptists, and the Catholics. These are all powerful orgunizi.tions, the Method .. w.t .i i.t. i.-. iciaiivin mi; uiiim Menu v. rvt v i mis tian faith is represented, and not ow but has a church and a well regulated society Ot the educational facilities of Omaha I would desire to speak more fully, but space forbids, and I would not be too te dious. I feel a sort of pride, however, in the fact that the education of the youth lu)t onl3' of this ;ity, but of the Stale, has oeen wisely ana ampi- provided tor. The State University a ill be formally opened on the Gth mst. A coiniH-tent corps of professors and teachers has been selected, who have signified their inte ntion to make it a first -class institution.

There was a lively race for life, or death, a few nights ago, but the short-legged man won the race, and has since come to the conclusion that he can make more in the wagon shop. So he said " Good-bye, Lewis, 1 11 bother you no more." A promising portly young barber in our place has been paying his sincere at tentions to a young lady near AYarsaw, for the past six months, and " marry " struck his brain, of course, as it does all bovs ; so he goes to the livery stable and gets horse and carriage, starts for Warsaw, and takes the young lady out riding. When passing the brick woolen factory, he told her he was the holder of a seven thousand dollar mortgage on the building, and if she would promise to be his intended he would foreclose the mortage, and then they would live as happy as two frogs in a mud-puddle on a rainy day. She has made no reply as yet, but no doubt she will soon. . ' "i j Hurrah for the two young men that go to the millinery store to have their fun. Wholesale Slaughter. Walter J.

At Morehouse's store they got about twenty five cents in change. At Joyce's saloon they got two ten cent scrips which were badly dilapiated ; they bellied themselves to what they wanted to drink, and left the faucets open on the liquor kegs, and about forty dollars worth of liquors were destroyed. Our blessings to them are that their 'walks through life may be a winding pa'.'i up a steep hill, and may the hot sands burn their feet, may the musquitoes keep them awake until long after midnight, may their wives put salt in their coffee and vinegar in their tea, and when done with this world they may be seated in the north-east corner of the lower world, and the south-west winds blow ashes into their eyes unto all eternity. : WARSAW. ; From the Indian inn: Two of the ward school-houses are to be erected immediately. .'. .H.

The Ft. Wayne ReptMican. has recently

been enlarged and changed in form. It is now fesued in quarto form4vhich the publishers think will make it more attractive in appearance and convenient for the public.
