PATTEKSO.V, One of the earliest settlers of the State, died suddenly, of disease of the heart at his residence near Rock Bluffs in this county, on . Wednesday night of last week. He had been ail ing for several weeks, but was appar ently getting betur. He had been conversing on business; affairs with ? some friends during the evening, and , had made an engagement to be in ..Plattsmouth on Thursday. He laid down about 10 o'clock, remarking that he must arise early to start to Platts mouth. He had only been abed a few moments when lVtrs. Patterson, near ing him make a strange noise, stepped to the bed side and found him iust breathing bis last. Col. settled at Rock Bluffs in the or 1S63, where he resided Patterson year 1S64 until his death. He was one of the leading men of Cass county, and his loss will be deeply felt, net only by relatives, but by the community at large. He was the founder and original landed pro prietor of Rock Bluffs. CITY BONDS We publish the call of the City Coun cil for an election on the 24th of April t authorize the issuance of 8-50,000 in Plattsmouth City Bonds to aid the B. & M. R. R. It will be seen that one of tbe conditions upon which these bonds are to be issued is that the Depots, Machine thops, etc., of the road are to be located within the cor porate limits of this city. We have just voted $200,000 in county bonds to have the road pass through the county; now, the question is what will we do in Plattsmouth to secure the starting point at this city. We believe the no tice is stripped of all the objections urged against the notice-of the county commissioners, and we hope not more than two men will be found in the city who will oppose these bonds. OFFICIAL CANVASS. The following is from the official canvass of the vote of last Saturday for and against issuing county bonds to aid the construction of the B. & M. R.

We print to-day ,what is called a herd law. It was net the act which was generally termed the herd law; and, in fact, we are at a 4os3 to know just how this act ever' became a law. unless by the eatne process as the sec tion line road law. ' ; nAiLnoio to tinrcOL,. A correspondent of the Lincoln Common-wealth argues in favor of gi- ing 83,000 per mile; in cotttty "bonds, for each mile of road built in Lancas ter county to each Railroad that will buid to that city. He classes the road which are most likely to be built as follow: the lT& M. R R ; the M P. R. R.; the O. & S W ; and'the Xfem ha Valley,, He. is-evidently correct in placing the B. &. M. at the head of the list, as the. one likely to be com pleted first; bat, as we have just passed through a campaign for bonds, we would cuggest to our Lincoln firienda the propriety of submitting to the vo ters a definite proposition;' and as the R &. M is the first one cn the carpet, 1st them submit a .- proposition to give that company ' a-specific ' amount of bonds if the company wilf' ' kgree to complete thft road within a specified time. We think ..this . would ' be the best way, boih for the people and the company. "' Then each party knows ex actly what they' may depend upon, It will be more satisfactory to both cit izets and company-than to submit an indefinite proposition for so much per mile, leaving the company free to build whatever number of mi'es 1c saw fit in the coun'y. We hope Lincoln' will very soon get a railrcad, and vve think her prospects are excellent .'. if her people act wisely. We have just carried a vote, by a handdome-rr.ajority, in favor of issuing SiJtiO.OOO in Cass county bonda to the B.'k M: R R Co , and we think Saunders and Xiancasier should both come up Co iLe scratch and do 'what they can to encourage the im mediate commencement and early com pletion of this road far west as Lin coln. Now is the time to strike, if you want a railroad ..oon. - ' We -clip the following , from the Weeping Water correspondence of the Oinaba Republican. Iiia'dated. March 22d, and signed " :" . ., ,-..' Our usually quiet county is in a fever of excitement over the approaching election for courty bonds to the B. & M R It. The company require of the coun ty, bonds to the amount of 8200,000, be sides a large bonu3 from Plattsmouth for the grading a "road bed" through the county. The feeling was nearly universal in favor of the bonds while iue unuersianaing was mat ine road was to be completed; bjt as soon as the call for the election was issued and it became known that the-'company were only bound to consiruct the road-bed, a complete revolution of feeling took place, and present prospects indicate a heavy majority against the bonds. The Plattsmouth Herald gravely insin uated that Nebraska Ciiy and Omaha arJ using money to defeat the bonds; but the transparent absurdity of the charge only excites the risibles cf these opposed. Rumor says thatac live steps are being taken by intluen t'al parties to secure the earlv buildin? of a road west, from a point below Plattsmouth, of which more anon.' : Prospects, as well as men, are tome times deceiving. The newspapers of the country, for the past few days, have been heralding the death of ex President Johnson; but the following dispatch, dated Nashville, March 26ih, contradicts it. He is about to "swing arcund tbe cir cle" again: ' A dispatch from Greenville,, states that the ex-President after, suffering intensely with gravel is again up and in his usual health. Dispatches to Un ion, American and Banner were re ceived to-day . from Greenville, an nounce that he will speak at Knoxville on the 31 of April. and at Nashville on the 6th. From Nashville he will go to Memphis, and speak there." ' The Nebraska City Press publishes the following item:' The Grand Jury held a different view irom tee I'robato Judre in the matter of the Baptist Church distur bance, and found an indictment against Dr. Bowen and his eon, who were ar raigned yesterday in District Court and plead not guilty to" the charge of riot. 1 It is a case of that character which are generally prolific of contin uance, acd we will probably not see the tail end of it for some time " ' Some days ngo we noticed the fact that Mr. John O'Suliivan had on exi bition at the Key Saloon, the scalp of an Indian chieftain, which he claimed once adorned the cranium of the cele brated Black Kettle. We now learn that Mr. O'Suliivan has disposed of the scalp to a Chicago relic-hunter for the sum of S200. The government might have defrayed some of th9 ex peases of the ovorthrow of this no'ed chiefiain by cutting him up into inch square pieces and selling them to cu liosity-seekers. The scalp will re- main at the "Key until Monday, when it will be taken to Chicago by iis ewner, tnere to astonish the natives." Omaha Times. .

About seven o'clock last night as the ferrymen had tied the boat up for the' niht. arEastport on the Iowa side of the river at this place, a horseman came up and wished to be taken across Wm. JJebout, who was, in . the, ab sence of Capt. Sousley acting pilot of the boat had got in a skiff and ' started over, lb Nebraska City. " Richard Hill, the engineer called to him saying they mast set the horseman over,, ar.d telling th.e. fireman at the same time to fire up. Bebout turned theVskitf toward - the1: boat and as he came -back said that the bout could net be fired up that night unless over his dead body, or something' to that effect It seems he made some threats as he reached ihe side of the boat and Hill went toward him when Bebout drew a nis;ol and fired at Hill, raissine him. Hill theo jumped in the skiff" and as he did so Bebout fired a second shot which took effect near the right nipple, the third ball entered the breast within one or two inches of the second ball. Hill then pushed Bebout in the river, turned and walked a few steps, said he was dying, requested ; the mea to take hjm home and spoke no more, he was dead before they reached the bouse whi.ch-.was about fifty yards distant. Bebout then puhed off the skiff and crossed over to the- Nebraska side of the river. Pursuers subsequently found that he passed down to a point about a mile below the city where he fouiid another skiff .which he took. and went on down the .river. .Parties are pursuing him. but at the time of going to nress no news of ,i bis' cpure has reached u?. - Li uMr. Hill has been ia the employ of the ferry company for: about a year end is reoresented as havm2 been a very peacable and reliable man He was about 27 years of age. and leaves a wife and two children.. .Fortunately for his family be had taken a policy of life insurance for three, thousand dol lars in the St.-Louis Mutual, less than one year ago. -i ? . , .
