PLAT1SM0UTH NEBRAKSA., YIIUKSDAV, NOVEMBER 9 1871. C. H. Newell has been appointed postmaster at Glenwood, Iowa. We learn that f mall pox is prevalent at Yale Collego. Look out for a spread f the disease. The County Commissioners were in session Tuesday, with Commissioner James in his place. John W. Karnes has been appointed City Assessor for one year. See Coun cil proceeding. Ilcsser eays it is "all right" its a gal. lie continues to fell vegetables and flow irins plants at the same ruinously low figures. For Cue winter flowering plants call on Hesser. He will take them to your door, and he is the champion of Ne braska in the flowering shrub business. Edward Creishton has shipped twenty-six car loaJd of fat cattle to Chicago during the pat week. Nebraska pro duces some of the finest stock that en ters the Chicago market, and a Iare number of them. Judge II. E. Ellison, our newly eTected l'robate Judge, was in the city to day making arrangements for removing to the city in the course of a week or ten days. Tha bonds of the newly elected county officers were approved by the Commis sioners Tuesday, and they assumed their proper places. A stable and two valuable horses, be longing to Mr. S. Sidener, six miles cast of Glenwood, were burned one night last week. The fire was started through the careless use of matches in the hands of a four year boy. We glean from the Opinion. It is said ttjat Attorney General Rob erta' lecture bills are to be changed since the Salt Land Suit His subject now will be "The Salt Lands, aud how Mor ton dilntgct 'em" We are sorry to learn that Richard Cashing, Esq., is quite ilL We hope he may soon secovcr, for Plattsmouth, and in fact the entire southern and west era portion of Nebraska is indebted to Mr Cushing for services in matters of public importance. He is an active uiembtr of the Plattsmouth City Coun cil, and is Fitzgerald's right hand man in his great railroad enterprises. We learn from the Ashland Times that friend Holbrook's rooster is in a precarious condition, and from private sources we learn that much interest is taken in that rooster's fate by all lovers, ef poultry in that vicinity. We fchall record developments. At the meeting of tho Presbytery just close! at Rock Bluffs, Rev. 11. B- Stew art was ordained and installed pastor of the United Presbyterian Church at that place. He is a young man, and is said to be a gentleman of culture and ability above the ordinary standard. Morton admitted, during the recent Saline Land Suit, that ho knew, prior to his purchase or the entry of the land, that it was Saline, hence his knowledge of the fraud being perpetrated on the State. This is in accordance with our statement, some time since. We made a short drive into the country recently, and were astoni.-hed (a very pleasant astonishment, by the way) to find the country "fenced up" to that extent that we could hardly find our way to places with which we were perfectly familiar a few years since. Three or four years ago ono could drive across the prairie in almost any direction, without meeting with obstructions in the way of farm 3 and fences and now the rule is the other way. In going a distance of ten miles and returniug by a different route, we only saw two or three pieces of open prairie. This fact speaks volumes for our county and State. The following pupils of the Third ward have not been absent nor tardy the past week : Higher Department : Hattie Billings, Ella Billings, Lillie Bolt, Katie Doom, Maggie Doom, Alice Graves, Katie Johnson, Mabel Newcome, Nannie Tib- by, May West, Ida Coon, Turner Dodge, Frank Morgan, Clarence Streight Charles Mitchell, Frank Conn, Irving Rawlins.

Carrie Stow, f We Lave already iutimated that the brethren of Macoy Lodge No. 22 were takinz stens toward a Fair aud Festival to be given soon. We are now informed that committees are appointed, and that definite arrangements have been made for an interesting entertainment, to be triven at Fitzgerald's Hall on Thursday evening, the 16th iust. We bepeak for this the first prominent entertainment of the season the hearty assistance and encourascment of the citizens of Platts mouth, as we understand the object of the Lodge is to fit up their had in a pleasant and comfortable manner. The programme will be announced in due seaion, in the columns of the Herald. Hon. A. W. Kellogg, of Lincoln, called at the Herald sanctum this morn ir.g, on his way home fioui. the vast. A TEA til Kits' IXSTITCTE For Cass County will be held at Platts mouth, commencing at 10' o'clock on Tuesday, tho 14th day of November, instant. All the Teachers in the Coun ty are requested to be present; and it is hoped that the School Boards will grant leave of absence for this purpose. All parties will be ainply remunerated by the increased efficiency which the Teach ers wi 1 carry back to their work. The State Superintendent and other distinguished Educators will be presant to lend us their aid and councl. U. W. WISE, County Superintendent. P. S. Wc hope the citizens of Platts mouth will encourage us in this work, by extending their hospitality to Teach ers from remote parts of the County. Plattsmouth, Neb. U. W. W. Nov. 1, 1871. w2. A Congregational meeting was held in the Presbyterian Church yesterday, at noon, when with great unanimity it was Resolve J, That the services of Rev. Daniel W. Cameron are eminently satis factory to this congregation. After the evening service, Mr. Camer on thanked tho congregation for their manifestation of satisfaction with him. and expressed an earnest desire that all should unite with him in greater zeal in the cause of religion. We are glad to know that this congregation has been flourishing under the ministry of Mr. Cameron, and we are pleased to learn that he has no intention of leaving his present charge. The Omaha Herald has evidently been disappointed in the action of Julge McKean at Salt Lake. It expected hiiu to be ra.-h and overbearing with the Mor mon leaders, and persecute them in such manner as, taken in connection with ef forts of the Herald, would result in ar rousing the people then to resist the law by fbr.-e of arms. McKean has acted wisely and moderately, although with firmness, and the Mormon people are inclined to submit to the law with out causing "blood and ruin from one end of Salt Lake Valley to the other." Tho fact that Judge McKean admitted Mayor Wells to bail in the sum of $50,- 000 almost drives the Herald to be a "mad religious fanatic." Here was tho rock upon which it seemed to think the split would be made, and McKean steered his Judicial bark clear of it, and thus disappointed the hopes of the Herald. Alas! Dr., it does begin to look as if McKean would be able to enforce the aw without an outbreak of the people, and then your predictions of blood and carnage will prove false. Too bad ! too bad 1 ! The sales of the Burlington and Mis souri River Railroad Lands in Nebraska during the month of October 1871, were 1 2, 5S7. A'i acres, at an average price of $7.57 per acre, amounting to $34,039.23. The Company has yet about 1,4SO,000 acres choice farm lands for sale on ten years' credit at 0 per cent, interest, or at prices 20 per cent, less for cash or Bonds of the Company, one-third down with balance on one and two years' credit at 10 per cent, till paid. FIFTY yr.lK9 IX THE FSELI. The New Yoxk'Olserver is about cele brating its jubilee, entering upon its fif tieth year in 1872. It is one of the old est newspapers in the country, one of the ablest, and one of the most steadfast and fearless iu maintaining the truth in religion, the right in morals, and honesty in all public and private affairs. It an nounces for the coming year, tha publi cation of the second volume of its Year- Book ; a vast repository of information. statistical and of hcrwise, relating both to Church and State, whk-h will be sent free to all who pay their subscription for I S, 2. 1 his volume last year was wortu the fubscription price of the paper, and the Publishers promise a more complete Ycar-Book for 1872.

Eight Mile Grove, Oct. 29. 1871. The school was to. meet at 7 p. m., but by half past six o'clock the M. E. church was filled to its utmost capacity; seats and aisles all filled, and many stood at the door. They did not wait for the hour. House called to order by the pastor. Singing by the school, (we are sorry that we have not the programme,) and prayer by the Rev. J. T.Cannon. The Superintendent, Mrs. Shelton, took charge of the concert and did credit to herself and to the school. It more than met with the most sanguine expectation of all present. The classes came forward when called upon, nobly, and the sing ing was soul stiring, and met with the approbation of all present. Eight Mile Grove Sabbath School, of. the M. E. church is a live school and well deserves our praise. After the school had passed through their exercises, we had several addresses, all to the point and well timed. Rev. J. T. Cannon made a telling ad dress, whieh was followed by Rev. H. T. Davis, P. E. of Lincoln District, who gave one of his happiest efforts, which will not be forgotten neither by parents nor children. Brother Davis labors with great acceptability to all. We had other ad lresses that were tell ing. The whole thing was a glorious success. The Eight Mile Grove school is second to none in the county.

Mr. Arnold has been in the city for several weeks making the necessary effurt to secure the building of a Baptist Church in this city, and we are pleased to know that his efforts are being crowned with success. The Home Mission fur nishes $500 for thi3 purpose, and the balance will be raised by subscription- Mr. Arnold informs us that enough has already been subscribed to warrajit them in going ahead with the building, and that work actually commenced last Mon day. If those who have promised aid will be prompt in rendering it the church will be completed and dedicated by the first Sunday in January next. The lot has been purchased, immediately west of Burwell Spuriock's residence, on Main street. The buildiDg is to be 28x40, and will probably cost, when completed, about $2,000. Mr. Arnold is entitled to the thanks of the people in general, and especially of tho members of the Baptist Church in this place, for the en ergy he has displayed in this matter. or.t iL pko ei;is(;s.

Mr. Editor : In connection with the call for a Teachers' Institute meet ing on the 14th inst., I desire to express my thankfulness for the kind feeling and sympathr manifested by the citizens of Plattsmouth in behalf of our effort to promote the educational interests of Cas3 county. One of tho thief obstacles to the success of our immediate enterprise is tho heavy expense which must neces sarily be incurred by teachers while at tending the session of tha Institute. To relieve this embarrassment in a large de gree, many of our citizens, I am assured, propose to accommodate themselves to our necessities by generously offering to open their doors for the entertainment of teachers. Let there be no hesitation, therefore, about attending our meetings. If teachers, on arriving in town, will re port at Clark & Plummer's Hall, they will be assigned to places of entertain ment. U. W.

Many of the early settlers of the west will remember the hanging by a mob of a man named 3Iuir at Council Bluffs, in the spring of 1853, and the fact that he attempted to tell the whereabouts cf a lari-e amount of money which he had hurried, and which was taken by him from the bedy of the companion he had murdered. The following we find in the telegrams of yesterday : Yesterday, as laborers were at work cutting a new road throutrh the hill and hollow known as "Hang Hollow," they excavated a sack containing twelve thou sand dollars in gold and silver. The money was hiJlen there 18 years &"o by a man named Muir. who murdered a eomrade Califbrnian in this citv. Muir was captured and hung by a mob ofCalifor nian?. lie said he had hi 1 the money under a stump in this hollow, but ro fured to tell where. 3Iany have hunted for this secreted treasure, but all in vain. The laborers shared equally the booty. Office ok thr Continental Ixs Co., 1 X- X- XT .

Geo. T. Hope. President. New York, October 25th, 1871. Hon. Geo. IV. Miller, Svpt. lis. Depart- ment, iStale of Jttw lork : Dear Sir: The failure of many In surance Companies by the Chicago fire, after assurances had been given that they were able to pay all demands, and to pursue their business has justified an ap- ; prehension in the public mind and per haps in your own, which it is important should be allayed. We, therefore, to far as this Company is concerned, request you, at your earli est convenience to investigate its affairs, and to ascertain it3 position and ability to fulfil existing obligations and all that may arise in the ordinary course of its business. We wish, alfo, to call jour attention to our increase of Capital, already large ly over-subscribed, and desire to know when we can close the Subscription Books, and call in the money, under your construction of the Statutes. Your prompt attention will be regard ed as a favor. Very respectfully, Geo. T. Hope, President. Ins. Di't, State of N. Y., ) Alrany, Nov. 2d, 1871. J At the request of the Continental In surance Company of the City of New York, I have taken the earliest opportu nity, since tho adjournment of the Na tional Convention of Insurance Commis sioners, to investigate the affairs of the Company, and I find its condition to be as follows : Its assets, amounting to $2,847,307 54, are judiciously and safely invested. Its capital of five hundred thousand dollars is unimpaired,' and ithis a sur plus of net assets largely in excess of the amount required to reinsure its oustand ing risks, after providing for all other liabilities, including Chicago losses. Its losses sustained at Chicago are in course of rapid adjustment, and leavo the "ompany with abundant ability to afford indemnity to its customers and to respond promply to all customary claims The subscriptions to its voluntary ad dition of five hundred thousand dollars to its capital are much greater than double the amount to which the stock holders are entitled, and the subscrip tion books must yet remain open until the 20th inst, at which time the sub scriptions may be made payable. (Signed) Geo. W. Miller. Superintendent A telegram from Rawlins, dated the 5th, says, a man named David Ransford, an employee of the U. P. R. II. Co., was ju?t murdered in cold blood by an other railroad employee, named Cun ningham. There seems to have been some ill feeling between the two parties for some time, and this evening, about 7 o'clock, Cunningham procured a shot gun and weut to the car repairing shop, where the man was at work, knocked at the door, and as the man opened it fired the charge, striking him in the breast and killing him almost, instantly Cunningham was arrested. NVrWKlIXU HOME ixncsTitv. Hon. W. H. II. Waters, of the Ne braska City Chronicle, takes the business men of that city to task for sending away from home for manufactures that can be had in their own town, and makes the sending to St Louis for a large quantity of castings the particular occasion for an articlo which closes with the following very sensible remarks, which will appry ai well in Plattsmouth as in Nebraska City, and as well to any other branch of mechanics as to the foundry business: "Now, suppose three or four big job3 had" been given to our own Foundry, somewhere from six to ten thousand dol lars would have been kept here at home among our own mechanics, and they would have spent it here for groceries, dry goods stoves, wood, furniture, drugs, flour, meat, farm produce, &c, ami our city and county would have been just that much richer in actual monry now here iu circulation, besides making a reputation that would bring here a large a'LOunt of similar work from new towns that have no large foundry. And men coming here for such work would Le pretty sure to make other business here at the same time. They would take some soap from Sargent's soap factory, some leather from IJu!a;cr's tannery, some sash, blinds and doors from Cr tig's planing mill, some cigars from Phifer's cigar factory, some spices from 3Iat Lews' spice mills, a.nd some drug, dry goods, grocfries, hardware, crockery, from our wholesale dealers. But alas, this goodly turn of trade that might have been se cured is lost to us by our t-hort sighted policy. And thus it is that the simple fact of sending to St. Ijouis for castings of the engine house, the 3Iasons and Odd Follows' block, and others, is an ac tual damage and wrong to every man do ing business on our streets. "When shall we i: am the wisdom of mutual help in building up our home in terests, instead of pulling down and scat tering .abroad?" 31. B. Reese, Esq., of Osceola, Iowa, has located in our city. Mr. Reese is an Attorney, by profession, and so soon as he finds a suitable location for an office will announce through the Herald where he' can found. Those who kuow Mr. Reese personally speak of him in term9 of praise. i.;o:iixo i p. Whether or net people like the style of our City Council in business matters, there is no disguising the fact that they have raised the city credit from almost worthlcssncss to a cash basis. When the present council took their scats city or ders went begging for purchasers at GO cents on the dollar. Last week the council had occaion to u?e $1,500 in money, and offered orders at 90 cents to raise it. No sooner was it known that orders were to be offered at that figure than there was a rush for them, and ten timc3 that amount could have been cashed at the sanio figure. This looks financially healthy, at least.- Mr. and 3Irs. Staley, who were tried for forgery at Nebraska City at the re cent term of District Court, were found "net guilty," but Staley was immedi ately arrested for robbing the U. S. 3Iail, aud taken to Ouiaha. We refer the citizens of Plattsmouth to the advertii-ement cf D. Schnasse Co., for choice apples. This is the best chance to lay in your winter apples at a low price.
