at which the Hosts of Israel fclaked their

Timber is not plentiful, being confined to
the margin of the streams. Thee

channel of a mile, in and out, of all the
conceivable crooks, while only making a
few rods of actual course. The corrals

sometimes of twenty or thirty acres in
extent, and covered with a forest growth.
The native trues are cottonwood. red nd
white elm, hackberry, burr-oak, white ash
and willow. There is but very little bro

along the streams. Ti e roil is superior
to that of the Shenan Joa or Connecticut

Sacramento river, of California. It is
from two to live feet doep,--a rich, black

with lini3 just sand enough to keep it
friable, free from stone or gravel, a yel

the surface mould there is a stratum very
calcareous, which is of great bcneSt to
cereal crops. We hare a elcar, dry and
very salubrious climate. The soil and
climate are adapted to the profitable
growth of any crop that is grown north
of St. liOuis. The native grasses are red

luxuriant, interspersed among which are
wild flowers of every conceivable variety

Lincoln, April 11th, 1870.
Ki. Herald : After having enter
tained considerable doubt as to whether
a criticism, which wa3 published in the
Nebraska Statesman of last week, upon
the opinion I gave you in my last of S.
M. Hewlett's lecture at this place, is
worth the ink necessary to be u?;rd in a
reply; and, after having concluded that
it is not, I have yet seen fit to waste that
amount of ink, although my pocket, as
the gentlemanly critic shrewdly surmL-es,
being "empty," I did at first have some
scruples as to the propriety of being to
that unnecessary expense.
.And first I will mention the only truth
ful representation which the critic makes
of lay statement, which is that I
styled the lecture "stale and quoted
jokes." Now, as to this, as it seems ev
ident from the tenor of the criticism,
that this was the ouly humorous lecture
which the author CTer attended, if in
deed he attended this, I would not be
surprised if he had taken exceptions to
it, he has not, however, after having re
peated it either attempted to disprove,
or even so much as deny this statement,
and hence, he being a very erudite man,
it must be presumed, in accordance with
the ordinary rules of disputation, he in
tended to admit its truth, although by
sodjing has made the last two sentences

What such a person would be likely to
infer from it would be, that the audiaiico
did appreciate hint for jnl what lie was

opinions of the lecture which such per

was the ease. Latt, however, I may be
misconstrued, I will say that I did not,
and do n. t, unless the author of the
criticism was present, suppose that there
was a "jivvih skidC in the entire audi
ence. I wish to offer a tribute to the
author's sagacity by means of which he
inferred that I do not live here, and that
I am a "nice young fellow," both of
which remarks, as in fact does his entire
letter, bear testimony to his high culture
and genteel breeding. As to his elegant
allusion to my "empty pocket" and his
scruples at saying that I did not attend
the lecture on Satarday night and pay
my fifty cents, but waited until Sunday
night and put ten cents into the hat, it
is evident I could not have criticised the
first lecture without hearing it; and as
lay letter expressly states that "I did not
have the pleasure of listening" to the
lecture cn Sunday evening, the last silly
attempt at a low witticism is too weak to
be deserving mention, and the first being

Muti;itt n ucn his coim-ut to t!ie
church is to be built on another, close bv.
-Ir. ruotlatt also contcmoKites tne erec
tion of a new dwelling hou. e on the
eastern side of town. Market .-r.uare is
bei.niug to look up and show its pro
portions. ReattyS: Davis' now .-tore on
the west side, is nearly completed, and
will be filled with the largest stock ever
brought into the place. Clinton's new
building, Cotton's saloon, mid the addi
tion to Rankin's i tore have al! gone up
within the last month, and we learn that
there arc no less tfian five n;w building,
for stores and dwellings in contemplation
for the ensuing month. We are p:ond
to chronicle ihive evidences of thrift and
enterprise on the part ot the citizens.
Oi i, , -
ur merchaiits are all doing -agooJ bu.-i-
ness, and their ca:di sales arc increasing"
which shows there moiie m the
county and tiiat our tarmers are in better
circumstances than new comers generally
are in other counties Ti.-lme is receiv
ing new good.-and contemplates a large
cxtention to his business the coining
season. He will put up an addition to
his store and employ several hands in
his shoo thop. His custom work is in
creasing. Rankins is now cat for his
Spring stock, and will also build a store
during the coming season. Manly &
Stevenson are preparing to build, and
will considerably enlarge thir business
in the sale of agricultural implements.
Dr. Walker is talking of u new building
for a drug store, on the north-east corner
of lha market sjuaro.
Tlitu the prospect is mo.-t encouraging
for the future of our town. Strangers
are constantly coming in, and oar Hotels !
are full of business and crowd?.!. We !
hare no doubt that before winter sets in.
we shall have our population more thvi
d ubled.
Onr Future ttoiiM'hci-erM.
We sometimes catch ourselves wonder
ing how iiiaiiy of the young ladies whom
we meet with are to lierform the nart ol
homsckcej.ers, when the young men who
now eye them to admiringly have per
suaded them to become their wives.
We li.-ten to those young ladies of whom
we speak, and hear them not only ac
i knowledging, but boasting of their igno-
ranee of all household duties, as if noth-
ing would so lower them in the estima
tion of their friends as a con!irs.-ion of
an ability to lake bread and pics, or
cook a piece of meat, or a disposition to
engage in any useful employment.
Speaking from our own youthful leeol
lections, we arc free to say thai taper
fingers and lily-white hands are very
pretty to look at in a young man's eyes,
and sometime we h ive known the art
less inriocerics of practical knowledge
displayed by a young miss to a-u-ear
ra -.her interesting than otherwise. Rut
we have lived long enough to learn that
life is full of rugged
ot rugged experiences, and
1 that tt.e mo.it loving, romantic and aeti-
cate peon.e. niu-1 live 011 cooked or otht-r-
j w.isc 1rc;,ar,.a j-;0,i, anj ;u homes kept
clean an ! ti Iv by industrious hands.
And for all practical purposes of mair'K-d
life, it i generally found that for a hus
band to sit and, gaze at a wife's taper fin
gers and white hands, or for a wile lu sit
and be looked at and admired, does not
make the pot boil or put the smallest
piece of food in the pot. Ex.
Still TJioy Conic.
Probably at no time since our State was
admitted into the Union, has immigra
tion con:mcuqed with such a good show for
mi: c s.-i, .. i ....
luuuiiiiig una uui o.uic nun ii ui-nsi; jo- j
Dilution. 1 mm all sections we fiear ot
the thousand preparing to emigrate to
Nebra.-ka. The La-tern States are al
ready alive to the advantages offered to
settlers making homes on the Western
prairies, and we are informed that over
one hundred families are already prepar
ing to move to Nebraska from one point
alone. It is ak-o said that two hundred
families more are preparing to come out
in May next.
This is our great encouragement and we
look forward to the time when all the
beabtiful streams in the interior of the
State will be dotted here and there with
cultivated farms and the busy hum of the
industrious worker will be heard from one
end of Nebraska to the other.
Very soon the real merits of this western
country will be appreciated, and we need
not fear but that in a very few years will a
population be here that will astonish visi
tors from the Last. We hope our county
commissioners will provide come means to
induce the immigrats to locate in Seward
which is not surpassed in the State, as a
farming and manufacturing county.

George Francis Train is speaking in
Connecticut against the Kngli.-di Democ
racy. He calls upon all Fenians to "kill
the Democratic party and save Ireland!''
He has issued a proclamation to the
Connecticut Fenians, Iri-hmen and Cath
olics, declaring that "the Relmout-Tain-manv-Know-Nothing-Kiiglish
party is
dead."" "Let us," ho cries, '"let us
bury them decently, and erect this epi
taph over their dishonored grave :

Clstirch Car.
Pullman, tie; man who docs every
thing by rail, having buiit p-tlatiaT cars
for sleeping as well as dining at thirty
j miles an hour, is now engaged ?:i con
structing a fine church car, do imed to
I . W T
accompany trains ru;i:t:ng on tiia l nion
i ache load on Sundays. He is cer
tairdy cntirh-d to all praise for this last
effort, which will be a great benefit, more
especially as the service will then l-e fast
enough to keep up with the progression
of Western ideas as well as cars. Itwiil
be difficult to entertain any ideas of cx
c'usiveness in ths form of worship on
board there cars, and herein we see a
prospective benefit to the rac.2 in the ad
vancement of the one church idea,
wherein the worship of the Supreme
being shall be divested of the particular
fiautic dogmas, creed and isms of any
particular confined sect. All honor to
