Livingston, one of the State Fish Commissioners, informed us that he expected the other great Moguls of the fish Com mission to meet him at South Bend to investigate the feelings and try the temper of the young salmon, just hatched out there at Mr. Romine's hatchery, and he' further cordially in vited us to accompany him to see the finny, funny, little, big-headed roost ers before they are chucked heads and tails into the cold, cold Republi can or some other stream and strem lets to grow and furnish food for man ar.d other fishes. Arrived at South s Bend we found Romine on hand with a big wagon full of cans, his two black colts and well some bait. No Kaley however and no May and as it had truned cold, a little May weather would have been very accept able. The Doctor, Romine and our- self bundled into the wagon, the colts gave a snort, the Engine sneezed back and away we rattled over the long bridge across the Platte for Mr. R's smings over in Sarpy County. Across the bridge and up the Platte for about a mile and we reach the fish ponds, and we really think one of the best natural places for the business we ever saw. There are now in the hatching house 100,000 egss and young fry in the trouc-hs from Mr. R's own fish. About 25,000 have been hatched this . ... ii. , .i- season anu put into one oi me ponu.-. Besides these there are the results of the 200,000 Salmon Spawn, sent from California, all hatched out and swimming about. It is to remove and distribute them that the Commission ers met on Monday. Soon they will be sporting in the head waters of the pellucid brooks of young Nebraska. There are three ponds. In the first, as you may say, are 25,000 nine months old or yearling (Trout), in the second 8000 two year old and in the last about 6,000 three year old this hatching time. These are all from his old spring on the Cass County side. The whole business is fed by two magnificent clear springs that run twenty-seven cubic inches oi water. The springs are thirty or forty feet above the ponds. Hatching house about three hundred yards above pres ent ponds and the springs about four rods above the Hatching house From the ponds to the Platte is about two hundred yards. Altogether it is about as good a plant for the business as you often find and fish culture in Nebraska is looming up deservedly. Oh, those beauties in the pond their lovely speckled sides as they darted after crumbs make a fellow ache to have a fish! The pond just seems filled with them, throw some food in and their shining glistening fins and sides flash, and dart like flakes of sunlight. They are cun ning: too we threw in little bits of apple, the trout sprung for one or two pieces anel finding- it was not liver, or some-thing that they wanted, ap pie had no attraction for them after wards. With a sigh of regret we left the "Speckies" mounted the old lum ber wagon and trotted back to South Bend, of which more anon. Frank Cranmer was again under the weather for a day or two, but commenced his luties yesterday. The railroad Company are grad ing, ditching and throwing dirt over on the old Lincoln Avenue at a great rate. A big Roundhouse, a Foundry larger wood shops and various other improvements that are going to aid and help our town very much. Be sides the private improvements being made are wonderful, in every elirec- tion houses are going up. A Parnell meeting, or what was advertised as such, was heltl at Fitz gerald Hall, on Tuesday night. Hon Sam M. Chapman, Dr. Livingston Mr. Strode, Mr. Hartigan and others spoke ably and well on the Irish situa tion; but as the meeting neither rais ed any money to help the Irish, nor appointed a committee to wait on Mr. Parnell, the Herald hardly sees the object of the same. Talk won't cure an empty stomach. Wasn't there a hitch somewhere in that turn out? Through the most unpardonable negligence, we omitted to make men tion of the marriage of Mr. Lafayette O'Neill, of Plattsmouth, and Miss Hannah Burke, of Lincoln, which took place at the residence of Mr. Jno Fitzgerald in Lincoln, Thursday, Feb fth, 1880. We hereby beg the young people of Plattsmouth not to be mar ried on Thursday any more, for then the Herald can't announce it until the next week, (or the week after) and by that time it gets old. A pretty little box of nice wed ding cake ought to have kept our memory active, but perhaps it had the opposite effect, too much sweet impairing the digestive powers, which in turn acting upon the brain, render the faculty of memory dormant, and so we forget to make mention of the fact that two of our young people had embarked in the same boat upon the sea of matrimony. Mr. and Mrs. O'Neill returned from Lincoln Friday afternoon, and received their friends Friday evening at the house of the bride's sister, Mrs. Wm. Neville, where every one joined in congratulating the happy couple and enjoying the passing hour. In these congratulation the Herald at the late day joins and wishes them hanniness and wealth in abundance.

Wheel er at the fair, at Lincoln, Myron Wheeler their son, shot at and quite severely wounded -Mr. bchlegel, our favorite expressman, mistaking him for a burglar. The night before there had been persons trying to get into the house and Mrs. McNiel had sent for protection. Un the night in question there was a party, supposed tramp or burglar, prowling round the yard and looking in the window Mr. Schleeel saw him, as he came up tne street ana as me neeiers .1 . . .1 TTl 1 had requested him to keep a lookout for the boys, was about entering the yard to cature him, when the young man, who had been watching the tramn frem inside, shot filling his arm and shoulder with bird shot, and civins: him a very tender remember- ance of the occasion. Fortunately the wounds are not serious. SOUTH BEND NOTES Ed. Herald: Owing to the extreme cold weather, news items are scarce.

Uncle Jason Streight is moving out on his farm near here. Rev. Folden of Lincoln preached to a full house on Sunday evening. John McCaig has taken to himself a wife, well done John, better late than never. In speaking of amount of money reported by S. B. in the Sentinel, he has it $10,000 in one week; that is too hefty. We are truly sorry ofr our neighbor, Louisville, that they have to destroy the farms adjoining it for roads, na ture had ought to have done more for them (this sympathy gratis).
