Our readers are already apprised of the fact that some weeks ago, Senator WADE and a distinguished party of excursionists from the East left Omaha on a pleasure trip over the Union Pacific Railroad. Having explored the beauties of the country in this direction as far as possible, the party returned and went over the Union Pacific, Eastern Division, as far as Fort Riley, Kansas. As the excursionists returned Eastward by way of St. Louis, our city authorities, in connection with the Directors of the St. Louis Exchange, took the necessary steps to give them a fitting reception. The following Committee of Arrangements was appointed by the Mayor and Mr. AMES, Vice President of the Exchange: On the part of the city -Ion. A. KRIECKHAUS, Mr. ERASTUS WELLS, IMr. CHARLES A.
