We learn from a gentleman who ar
rived in the city last evening, that a nor
libie murder had been brought to light
at Matiti, in Fremont county. The
crime was commit tted by a man named
II. l'iainer and his wife, who for some
vears have been living in that town.
The circumstances, as near as we could
gather thorn are as follows : It appears
to be a well established fact among the
d -liizens. of that village, that Mis. J'lat
ucr iiad been for some time eneiente, at
leat to a!! appearances Time - passed
and rn little one graced their humble
home. A honible suspicion seized upon
them then that all was 111 1 as it should
be, and an investigation was determined
upon by the neighbors. The fact that a
similar freak of nature had b.en observed
Home eighteen months previous, made
suspicion doubly s-ure, and en nvixsr they
waited on the couple, ami demanded of
them what had been done with the child
that was supposed to ha ve been born. At
tir-t thej- utterly den ed that any such
thing had oecurred, but a rope K-ine
p'aeed aro-md the neck of the man, with
one cud over a tree that was handy by,
brouiht them to a sense of their diWy,
an ! they confessed that a child had leen
Lorn, and showed thetn where they had
put it. It. little body was found in a
p si hole near the hou.-e, into which it
had been ,-i-tced with its head downward,
& il i!ie::- covered up wiih loo-e dirt. An
"e.'i.K.t'oa of the ho ly showed plainly
.hat it it-.i I '-e n stranjiod shortly after
ir-i. . 'h Sevcnd Iifl' rcnt storic3 were
t -M ! t!ii.ii i'lrt-tard to' the death of
tr e tmlu, rut as none were satisfactory
tiie" wtie both p'aeed utidcr arrest, and
vesteruay a preliminary examination was
being made in which all the facts in the
ae will probably be adduced. That
there has been a foul unnatural murder
committed, there can be no doubt, and
we tiut that a proper puuk-hment may
be meted out to the guilty parties.

Those wh 1 have stu tied tha gemra
appearntK-e of the country in this part
of the State an I compared the position
of Nebra.-ha with the coal producing,
.ections of the country, are confident
that coal can bi found in large quantities
throughout the State, an 1 especially in
the region of the south l'latte and in a
westerly direction towards the Blue
rivers. The general formation and tip
pcaranees of the earth in this locality
corresponds with that of the rich coal
sections; while the location, renders it
more than probable. that th; wim of
coal wI.L-h have been found in the same
latitude at the different j oints to the
east and wis: which have been examined
for this purpose, also exist here.
This has heretofore been the case almost
without exception, as those who will
obseive the location of the different
CoaK'elds of the country will readily
perceive. The coal producing sections
of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois and Iowa
to the eat of us, and of Wyomimr and
Colorado to the we.-t, are nearly all in a
belt of country in the same latitu le, and
the 111. t extensive coal fbdds in the
United States are found witbin that belt
This is governed by certain natural laws,
and there is 110 plau.-ible rea.-on why
they should not hold good in this in
stance.
Several parties, experienced and intcl
ligt nt cou'-mii.ers, a:e now pro.-ccting
in this part of the State fir indications
of coal, and report the pro-pe ts as of
the most favorable character. We be
lieve the indication- leave 110 room for
doubt that coal exist here in large quan
tities, and we hopo poon to sec the de
vv !opnu:.t of this groat rc.-ource tui iud
to account. It will do moie than anvthimr
! ef.-e to 1. ice Nebraska on the high road
to prosperity, and give her the leading
po-iiion among the States of the West.

them entitled to as much money as wet

The meaning of this is, that wives are

An editor who has been married about

habiib ; beautiful on the smile, but
maddening on the yell ; exquisitely in
place ia the nursery, but awfid'y

Work upon the Temporary Peniten
tiary has commenced by the contractors,
Mes.-rs. Pai kins and ' HalWell. The
building will be con-trueted of dressed

the angles four feet in thickness. Will
be one story. 85x4" feet, 12 feet coiling ;
roof tin ; windows grated, i inch round

floor to be I', inch yellow pine. The
front part is to be linished vp for the
Warden's family and officers, fhe rear
01 x4:2 feet will be divided into cage cells.
The building is so arranged that when
the penitentiary proper is completed it
can be turned info a work-hop and form

by July It is located four hundred

Known in the State, both ttmn Salt and Wahoo crocks. It is at the famous

at the maj. will how. 1'ho I'mlington it 3Jis.souri Iliver lli ilroad in N bra-ka
is now finished and cars runriiinr to Ashland, and will be completed to Lincoln
before the time of the sale. This i.s the great through route between the
Atlantic and the Pacific, and will be completed to a connection with the main
trunk of ti e Union Pacific r.ad in a very short tiine. This is the only line of
railroad bet ween the ea-t and we.-t that has a through line extending wot of the
Missouii river, hence it cannot fail to control a hinre f-hare of the through trade
between the Atlantic and Pacific. A point with the natural advantages which
