J. J. Woodrow. Exq , i f Glenwood,
was in the city last Monday. We learn
from Mr. Woodrow that the people of
Qlenwo id celebrated the Fourth in good
tyle, and gave a benefit to their bras
band which realized about $150 clear.
Mr. Dennis Dean, who was in Ohio ro
contly, writes ui under date of'June 24th
that corn there was not more than half
us far advanced as it was in Nebraska
when he left on the 15th, and that the
-wheat crop was very light
We give a largo portion of our space
this week to correspondents and right
slad are we to do so. We like to have
flOrrcpondonca from different parts of
the country, especially when they speak
of what is going an in the various loca.i
ties from which thevjnre written.
Ve have received the first number o
the Pawnee Tribune, pul lished at Paw
ne City, Nebraska, bj T. R. Fisher. Esri
Mr. Fisher was formerly ed";tor of th
Brownville Advertiser, and is well known
as a souud and spicy writer. The Tri
.bun is radical Republican in politics
and is a neat (seven column sheet.
Tha Omaha Rfjmblican of last Satur
dav says : Wo are informed that Gen
Dodge, chief engineer of the U. P. R. R
will start from the North Platte crossin
this morning, for his great journey t
Oregon and Washington Territories. H
goes on borso back, and will bo three
months in the saddle, extending his rid
clear to Pugt's Sound.
Simon Cbernalty commenced getting
up steam for the Fourth one day too soon;
and by noon Friday his safetv-valv
opened and commenced to "blow off."
Sheriff Johnson was on had nud soon
quenched the "fires with n tim" by tak
ing him beforo Recorder Dorrington,
wLi induced him to pay g!0 into the
city treasury. '
TheTC were very few accidents in this
locality on the 4th. The only ojs of
consequence we have beard of happened
to Mr. Sprague'a little boy, aeed about
H years lie was attempting to ignite a
quantity of loose powder with a coal, and
succeeded better than be desired. His
face and left hand were b id'.y burned,
but it 1 thought he will recover without
being disfigured. ,
A pair of oxen attached to a wagin J
created quit a stir last Monday by trying
their speed down Main street. They
could not make as good time as some
eastern "blooded" stock, but they made
about as strong a run as one would de
t.re to sec. They broke the tongue out
of their 6u.ky, and came out ahead of
all competitors. Time, at the rate of a
mile in two hours and forty second.
Mr. A. Courtright, of Millford, was in
town this week for the purpose of pur
chasing a threashing machine for himself
and two more for his neighbors. We
understand he selected the "New Yorker"
Machines, sold by Doom, Bro. Jb Co.
It looks well for Seward County farmers
to see three new machines going to one
neighborhood at the same time. Mr.
Crurtright informs us that his harvest is
now reaiv, and that crops in Seward
are splendid.
Many of the resident of Nebraska will
remember of hearing about a curious
laoxing place on Weeping Water, near
Mt. Pleasant, and quite a cumber vtl
remember of having visited this spot and
epeeuTaticg in regard to it. It was
generally designated as "the old silver
mine,' and was supposed to have been
an ancient, mine of some kind. Col.
Th. Patterson informs us that he has
. recently visited this place and made a
thorough examination of it; and his con
clusion is that it was originally the site
of an extensive Indian arrow-head roan
factory. The Hint from which tha
arrow heads are made is found in abun
dance there, and there are several mounds
in the vicinity composed almost entirely
of the flint spalls, where the Col. thinks
the work-shops cf the aboriginees were
Lieut. J. N. flay?, formerly typo in the
Ieraid office, and late nsiistnta clrk in
the Sirveyor General's v. Hie, left fir
recmont yesterday, where be is about
starting a Republican newspaper Hays
is a thorough printer, a apioy writer ar.d
as sound a Kepoblican as the State con
tains. lie was one of that little band of
men who "inarched down to the sea"
with Sherman, and knows just how to
appreciate) the men wto faugbt them
from the hearthstones of the north.
We learn that a little son of Mr. Wm.
Stohlman's, who resides in Louisvil'e
Precinct, was seriously injured lat Sun
day bv being kicked by a horse which he
was endeavoring to drive out of the yard
The hoof struck him on the forehead,
over the left brow, pealing the scalp from
the left side of the head back to the ear,
leaving the skull completely exposed, and
making a gash about five inches in length
Dr. Livingston was immediately sent for,
from whom we learn the above fact, al
so that the little sufferer is doing well
lie was only arinut Eve years old.
Thorn was no general celebration in
this city on the Fourth, but moit of our
people seem to have enjoyed the day very
much. Some went to ce.ebrat'uns at
other points, and quite a large number
engaged in pic n:c dinners in tha various
beautiful nooks in the vicinity of the city
About a hundred of the "steady going"
sort congregated at the grove in Mr.
Mincheli's enclosure, where,they had an
excellent basket dinner, with an abun
dance of free ice cream for desert, and
whiled away the time in the most agree
able manner possible.
TLe Fourth passed off quitely in this
city, with little display of the rowdyism
and drunkenness uual on such a?ca-
sions. The onlv arrest mid in town
was that of a young man named demons
who lives on Rock Creek. He had taken
a little to much 4,lenionade," which
made him teel extremlvjpngnacious. He
was looking for som one whose ''fighting
weight" w. uld tally with his own, when
he "found bis man'' in the person of
Marshal Mjrphy. The Marshal placed
him in the lock-up, but he was admitted
to bail in tho sum of $200 to appear be.
fore Recorder Dorrington at 9 o'clock on
Monday morning. At the proper time
he made his appearance, pled guilty and
paid his line $10.
We understand the efforts of our Meth
odist friends to erect a church building
are meeting with euccess, and they hope
to be able to get tho building up and en
closed before winter. The plan of the
building decided upon is Si x CO feet,
two stories high; the uper story to be us
ed us the audience room; and the lower
story to be divided into three class rooms,
a hall, and a lecture room.34 x SC. The
building is to be heated by means of a
furnace and registers. It is estimated
that the building, when com; loted, will
cost about $7,500. They do not expect to
complete tho buidtng this season, but
hope to get it enclosed so as to preserve
it during the winter storms. It will take
between $1,000 and $3,000 to get it en
closed; and to do this they have already
donated about $2,500; and expect to re
alize something like $1,000 for the old
church building. Th?s leaves about
$1,000 yet to bo raised to insure the com
mencement of the work, and we have no
fears but that will be raised. Aside from
the religious feelings which should prompt
ev rv individual to help in the erection
of this building, the financial benefit to
tho town is of sufficient importance to
demand tho raising cf tha necessary
$1,000.
Wo t.at?d last week that L. G. Todd,
Esq., was makirg an article of cheese
equal to any made on the "Western Re
serve," and we can now reiterate the
statement from an actual test. Mr. Todd
b ft one at the Herald oCce last Monday
that cannot be beat in tiny part of the
world. The dealers in this city are ail
anxous to get cheese of Mr. Todd, and
prefer it to any eastern manufacure.
Cheese has been manufactured to soiuo
extent in Nebraska ever since the country
was settle, d"'Ut tho product has generally
been a very inferior article, and many
people had decided that go id cheese
could not be made here. The reason
assigned were various, but that most
generally accredited was that it was ow
ing to the quality of the grasses. While
it was conceded fact that -our prairie
grass was equal to any f r strengthen
in and fattening cattle it waa supposed
that it would not produce as gt-od cheese
as the tame grasses of the east. Mr.
Todd dissented from this theory, and de
termined to test the mattt-r thoroughly
He procured all the necessary apparatus
for cheese making, such as is used by the
best manufactors in the east built the
necessary houses for curing the cheese
after coming from the press, and Jjien
sent to Ohio for an experienced cheese
maker to take charge of the work.. The
result has been as stated, that ho is dai
ly produoing an article second to none
in the world; and the old theory about
the grasses of Nebraska not being adopt
ed to the production of cheese is thir
oughly exploded. The only thing re
quired to produce the best of cheese in
Nebraska is to know how and then do it.
The trouble with most of thoso who at
tempted cheese making is that they did
not understand the business, and many
of them have not done even as well as
thev might. The only difficulty with Mr
Todd is that he cannot Keep his cheese
long enough to give them the age bo nec
essary to a good cheese. They ,re so
far superior to anything heretofore pro
duced in Nebraska, that people are anx
ious to et them as iocs as passible.

For f iruiiv Sewing in all i: Tiri;ties ,
the work cf this simple machine is found
perfectly strong and reliable; and its
hlmming is done on tha right tide, and
to any width, and is neat and accurate
beyond comparison. Felling, also, is
readily performed by it, and w cannot
see any requisite for family purposes
which it cannot be made to meet as read
ily as any sewing machine in use. I; is
simple and easy to work, cannot be run
in the wrong direction, nor is there the
(lightest difficulty in changing the needle;
it is not liable to get out of order, and
combines cheapness 10 its other merits.
It whs not easy to convince us that one
thread would produce a seam fit for
general use, and of reliable strength; but
experience has proved it to be so. We
must injustice express our confidence in
the merits of the W.Ilcox & Uibb Sew
ing Machine.
THE DLNUt'Itil'IC CO.WE.V-
TIO.V
The Conveniimi met on the lih, ef
fecied a temporary organization, and
aJjourued ml Monday. The Conven
tion met again at M0 a. in., Monday,
effected a permanent organization with
Horatio Seymour as Chairman, and ad
journed till Tuesday to give the plat
form Committee time to report. The
following is the very unsatisfactory tel
egraph report of the platform resolu
nuns:
They declared first that the Demo
cr. tic j arty would respond and tru--i in
the i .tellrgence end jilice of the peo
ple standing upon the Constitution-,
recogii'z.ng slavery and secession as
sciibd by the war or voluntary action
of the Southern States, and never to
be renewed; den. aid the iniuit-dialf
restoration of all the States Cbt ers J
The second article declared for all
political offences and the tight of suf
fraL'e in fell the Slates.
The third article uetlares ihat the
public debt, where the obligations do
not expressly ttue on their face (he
conditions under which "hey were is
fued, iloes net rrovide tneir rayinenl
in coin.
The fourth declares for the equal
taxation ot all property, including gov
erntneut bonds. ("Cheers.!
The fifth declares for one currency
for the government and people, labor
ers and office holders, pensioner and
soldier, producer and bondholder.
The Mxh declures in favor of econ

army and navy and abulutua of Jb reed
man's Bureau ; cheers and of ihe
iniqui:torial mode of collecting the
revenue tarifl for revenue, and such
equal taxation under the Internal Rev
euue as will afford incidental protecti n
to industry.
Seventh. Subordination of the mil
itary to civil power.
Eighth. Equal rights nud protec
lion for native and adopted citizen
aqains-t the ductiine of immutable alle
"lance; denounced the usurpaton und
tyranny of the rat.ical party; its vu

beas corpus mode of the National 'ap
Hot. a hostile nnd threaten to desiioy
the original jurisdiction of ihe Supreme
Court, and maiined the Chief Just:c
because of hi integrity on the trial of
the President.
The report continued at considerable
length to reiterate these abuses, and it
conclusion declare that the privilege
end trust suffrage lelongs exclusively
to the control of each State, whicl
Congress has usurped in violation (
ihe Constitution. The platform further
specially denounces the reccnstrui lion
acts of Congress as usurpation, uncon
stilutional and void. Soldiers and Sad
ors were promised to be faithfully paid
public lands should be reserved for
homesteads. Thanks to Andrew John
sons for resisting the assresiions of
Congress, ("ureal cheers and invites
men of all parties in lhe past to unite
on this platform.
Mr. Murphy moved the previous
que. lion, which was ordered wnr a few
dissenting votes. The delega-es called
for re-readine, f'jreat cries of ques
m. n. question. which was adopted with
few dissenting voices. Iben the con
vention rose to their feet with cheer
ing.
Th c invention then proceeded to

but up to the latest accounts bad no
succeeded in making a choice. The
convention is composed of 634 dele
gates, each one being entitled lo half

BLACK HAWK
Two Horse
CULTIVATOR.
By practical experiments In the field and by test
ing them with the best Waikini Culiivato.s made,
hey have been brought to a state approaching
Ferfe otion
In construction. The cultlvntor cor.Ki-ts of two
wi ought iron ax'etrces, arched and well braced.
Tbe pliw are simply two iron beams with
DOUBLE SHOVEL PLOWS
attach d to the axle by a double joint which (rives
the oIjw an easy, but at the saire time perfectly
true vertical and horlaontal motion.
1 he tongue is double and fatened to the arch
of the axl'-tree l-y damns, i. that it can be raited
or lowered at will, wben the co. n is Tr.nn J, reducing
draft, and raited when tbe coin Is higher.
The shovels are furnished with
Reversible Teeth,
So that the soil can be thrown elthr toor from the
corn. T e tlow are connected by means of loose
coupling, wh ch enah'o the plowman lo control both
Plows by holding one.
The following are afew of the advantageous points
of superiority which this Cultivator has over ethers
1-t Ii is stronger and lighter, being made almost
entirely of wrought iron.
2 J-Th-double points br which the shovels are
attached to the axle enable the plowman to move
hi-plow either toor from tbe corn or lift it out of
the ground with the lea t effort.
8d. With this Cultivator the depth of tbe furrow
can be rrnnla'ed plowing shallow or deep whether
the ground is hard or soft.
4th. Ey mean of the loose coupling which con
nect the two plows yon can make the two pl wsrurt
any distance apart t!tt you may desire With oth
er plow it i almost impossible to hold both shovels
whe.-i throwing ear:h to the corn, and to keep them
from crowding tocs'hr when plowing from the cots.
