An article about our late Professor
nd the High School management, ap
peared in an Omaha paper, which is so
grossly untrue to the facts that we give
a plain statement of what did occur.
Mr. Ross cama here with the highest
testimonials as ateacher.and he taught
the school well and to the satisfaction
of the Mayor, City Superintendent
and Council. There was no negleet of
duties ever complained of there, and
he never made himself officious, or over
gallant, uor in any way mialehaved to
or with any of the lady teachers, while
in or ".boit the school as said article
would imply.
V.'hzt did happen vras simply this,
and nothing more :
The gentleman abovd mentioned
thought he was violently Irt Icte
.with one of theteachcrs in the High
fifbool, rand-; as ""folks . are apt tr do in
such cases,:he: told .her so; but as he
ery unfortunately had a' wife elsewhere,-
andshe knew it, she at once
wrele to her father Jo come on here
and take her home. . Her father did so.
The City Council v. re' advised of Mr.
Ks infatuation- fc- strange Mies and
promptly dismissed him, and tfrat vas
all there' Was about it-no further scan
dal, no more, no less than thie, except
fn the hurry of leaving, Mr. li. ftffgot

and his creditors "attached his trunks
l.iit thafF Lai nothing to do with the

because we !5ta set? teacfrrf, arrl al

Hon. J. Sterling: Monox: 111 an-
A
swer td your request. I submit the fob.
lov.ing report, being an estimate of the
several matters referred to therein, ex
cept the statistics obtained from the
railroad and from the assessor's books:
The Cass County Agricultural and
Mechanical Association, with Hon.
J as. M. Wood, as President, held an
annual fair in 1873, which was mlich
better attended than the previoui yuar,
and was, I think, from personal obser
vation, and all information at hand, a
success in every particular. Our peo
ple ar6 taking a sensible view of the
falfi and don't look bo much at the
Pace where it is held, as at the exhi
bition at the fair. I observe no bick
ering among the exhibitors, but a very
commendable exertion on the part of
each exhibitor as to which can exhibit
the best result of his labflrj either in
the product of his fields or increase in
the number and value of stock he ex
hibits, or" irt Ihe quality of the stock.
Agricultural statistics taken from
the assessor's return for 1873:
Xo. of Horses, 5,593; value $293,
043; do Mules & Jacks, 400; value,
S2 1,443; do. Cattle, 12,703 ; value, 6176,
433; do. Hogs, 22,304; value 833,074,
and we can add for hogs under 6
months old, 33,000, in addition to the
abdVe returns.
The amount of produce and stocks
shipped from Plattsmouth station by
the C. B. & Q'R. 11., as shown by their
shipping books, for the year 1S73, is as
follows:
Wheat, Xo. cars, 3,433 ; equal to 1,
294,873 bu; Corn, 133 cars, equal to 62,
000 bu; Oats, 69 cars, equal to 44,000

40,000 lbs.; Flour, 4 cars, equal to 80,-
000 lbs.
The shipments of grain, stock, etc.,
from Louisville station, Cass county, is
as follows:
Shipped to Omaha city and west, and
not including what was shipped to
Plattsmouth, or East, 1 car of wheat
equal to 375 bu; 97 cars of corn, equal
to 33,250 bu ; 4 cars of oats, equal to
2.G00 bu; 8 cars of barley, equal to 3.
600 bu; 10 cars of hogs; 6 cars of Ka
olin ; and 3 cars of Hour.
The shipment from Greenwood sta
tion, Cass county, to Omaha city and
west, and not including that which was
shipped to Plattsmouth and East, is as
follows, viz:
5 cars of barley; equal to 2,250 bu;
4 cars of live hogs.
The shipment from Plattsmouth to
Omaha city and west, and not included
in the amount shipped : East by the C.
B. & Q. It. 11., is as follows :
10 car loads of wheat, equal to 3,730
bu; 292 cars of corn, equal to 131.400
bu; 43 cars of oats, equal to 27,950 bu;
7 cars of barley, equal, to 3,150 bu; 3
carB of rye, equal to800bu; 6 cars of
flax-seed, equal to 2,230 bu ; 8 cars of
live hogs; 2 cars of cattle; 6 cars of
flour; 5 cars of potatoes, equal to 2,000
bu; 15 cars of wood; 16 cars of lime;
1 car of chiekens.
The following is a statement of the
products shipped from the different
stations of the B. & M. R. R in Cass

25 cars of oats; 42 cars of barley;
3 cars of rye; 12 cars of flax-seed; 103
cars of hogs; 63 cars of cattle; Scars
of flour ; 3 cars of potatoes.
The following statement shows con
clusively, I think, that the demand for
all our products, save wheat, hogs and
cattle, is at home, or, at least, west and
not east of us.
The Shipment from Plattsmouth
alone to the East, via C. B. & Q. K. R.,
is as follows:

' Mr. J. Wi Hesser, who has for several
years given' his attention to vegetables
aid greenhouse plants, has submitted
the fMlowingas a partial listof his
sales fof the year 1873: 8,650; green
hSuse plant; ; 125,000 sweet j potato

The Inter-Ocean insists that the
West demands more currency, and will
favor inflation, and wo notice that all
the New York and Eastern papers
have taken up the same cry, and say it
is the West and Western members of
Congress who are demanding inflation
of our currency. With all deference
to tha Inter-Ocean, and .these New
York gentlemen, we beg leave to differ
with them, and speaking for our sec
tion of the country, wo have not de
manded an increase of volume, nor an
increase of the currency; and our peo
ple, so far as we can inform ourselves,
look rather to a speedy return to
specie payment, as the only safe and
sure way. Chicago may demand and
need inflation more currency to trans
act her business and keep above board,
for she is badly in debt. Our West
docs not. We want a biggex share of
what is afloat, and must have it; but
we are not in favor of a new and unre
deemable issue of more paper money.
Let this be understood.

Sheriff Arnold left town on Monday
last well mounted and provided with
six months rations. He carried with
him an ominous looking bdok, on
which Appeared over six hundred
names of delinquent tax payers. ' The
majority of them still reside within the
eounty limits, though not a few are
lion-residents, while others . are non-come-at-i-bus.
Unfortunately for the
county, grim death has snatched away
bodily quite a number of these delin
quents, who perchance were fortunate
in their escape from the clutohes of
the tax-gatherer. . A part of these tax
es are against substantial men and
have been delinquent for a term of
years, but the law allows no exemption
from- them, however long delayed or
onerous, therefore all, without regard

Ex-Governor James, now of West
Point, called on the Herald, Monday.
We were not in, but accept the Gov
ernor's call, and his friends' note with
due meekness. Gov. James is an old
acquaintance, of long standing, hailed
from Dakota in the days "lang sj-ne,"
and many are the hours' chat we have
enjoyed in the dd-fa3hioned days,
when we all traveled a-foot, or horse
back, and stopped at old-fashioned
taverns, and held court in log houses,
and"eich."

Hon. J. Sterling Morton, President
State Board Agriculture, and one of
Nebraska's most prominent public men,
was in town last week. The Bee calls
him hay-seed Morton, but that's a
falsehood, for Dan. Wheeler and this
editor, both examined his head, through
powerful double opera glass, and
there's bigger things than hay-seed in
Morton's head.

The recent depression in business

great immunity from accidents, by
reason of immense expenditures, in the
last two years, of over two million dol
lars, besides earnings in wonderful im
provements, in relaying their line with
new steel and iron rails, on broad, new
ties, in h9w rolling stock supplied with
all modern appliances for bunfort and
safety, and as another safeguard, em
ploy night and day watchmen to in
spect the road before and after the
passage of each train, to see that every
thing is in order. Conspicuous among
new improvements Is the substitution
for ordinary cars, of new reclining
chair coaches, elegantly carpeted and
fitted with dressing roonis: for ladies,
gentlemen and families, tcitliotit any
extra charge. Tho St. Louis, Kansas
City & Northern and the Kansas City,
St. Joseph & Council' Bluffs Railroad,

Tho Aldlne, while issued with ill the regular
ity, has none of the temporary cr timely Inter
est characteristic of ordinary periodicals. It Is
an el"gant miscellany of pure, light, and grace
ful literature : aud a Collection of pictures, the
rarest specimens of artistic skill, iu black and
white. Although each succeeding number af
fords a fresh pleasure to its friPtids, the real
value and beauty of the Aldlne will be most ap
preciated after It has been bound up at Uh close
of the year; Vi'hile other publications may
claim superior cheapness, as compared with ri
vals of a similar class, the Aldlne Is a unique
and original conception alone aim unapproach
ed absolutely without cinietitlou in price or
character. The possessor of a complete volume
cannot duplicate the quantity of flue paper and
engravings in any otner shape or number of
volumes for ten times its cost ; and theu, there

Art Department, 1873.
The illustrations of the AliUno hate won a
wtr!d-widc reputation, andin the art centres
of Europe it Is an admitted fact that its wood
cuts are exaniples of the highest perfection ev
er attained. The common prejudice In favor of
"steel plates," Is rapidly yielding to a more ed
ucated and discriminating taste which recog :
nizes the advantages of superior artistic quality
with greater facility of production. The wood
cuts of the Aldine psssess all the delicacy and
elaborate finish of the most costly steel plate,
while they afford a better rendering of the ar
tist's original.
To fully realize the wonderful work which the
Aldine is doing for the cause of art culture In
America, it is only necessary to consider tho
cost to the people of any other decent repre
sentations of the productions of great paint
ers.
In addition to designs by the members of the
National Academv, and other noted American
artists, the Aldine will reproduce examples of
the best foreign masters, selected with a view
to the highest artistic success and greatest gen
eral interest. Thus the subscriber to the Al
dine will, jat a trifling cost, enjoy In his own
home the pleasure aud refining- Influences of
true art.
The quarterly tinted plates for 187 will be by
Til os. Moran and J. D. Woodward.
The Christmas issue for 174 will contain spe
cial designs appropriate to the season, by our
best artists, and will surpass in attractions any
of its predecessor. .
Premiums for 1874.
Every subscriber to the Aldlne for the ysar
1S74 will receive a pair of chromos. The origi
nal pictures were painted In oil for the publisli.
ers of the Aldlne, dv Thos. Moran, whose great
Colorado picture was purchased by Congress for
ten thousand dollars. The subjects were chos
en to represent "The East'' and "The West."
One Is a view in the White Mountains, New
Hampshire ; the other gives The Cliffs of Green
Kiver, Wyoming Territory- The difference la
the nature of the seenes then selves is a ppris
ing contrast, and affords a good display of th
artist's scope and coloring. The cliro'mos are
each worked from thirty distinct plates, and aro
in size O'isMO and appearance exact fac-sfmtJe
of the originals. The presentation of a worthy'
example of America's greatest landscape parnt
er to the subscribes of the Aldine was a bold
but peculiarly happy idea, and its successful re
alization Is attested by the following testimo
nial, over the signature of Mr. Moran himself

These chromos are In every sense American.
They are by ftn original American process, with
material of American manufacture, from oe
signs of American scenery by an American
painter, and presented to subscribers to the firt
successful American Art Journal. Jf no better
because of all this, they will certainly possess
an interest no foreign production can inspire,
and neither are they any the worse if by reason
of peculiar facilities of produrtroa thev cost
the publishers only a trifle, while cf)ial hi every
respect to other chromos that ar sold singly
for double the subscription prrre ef the Aldine.
I'ersons of taste will prize tbJTse picture for
themselves not for the price they did or did
not cost, aud will appreciate tfte enterprise that
lenders their distribution' jvuMe.
