We see our neighbors at Nebraska City, who are fond of "field starts," are making prepa rations for a grand Buffalo Iluxt, leaving for the hunting grounds about the first of next month. Mobton of the Xeics, in speaking of the hunt, closes by saying, "we hope that friend Geosge of the Xelraslian, and Fcrxas of tho Advertiser, will go in for this mighty hunt." "Count us in." By-the-way, what has become of the hunt talked of from this places Let's "annex" "unite" "go snooks" with the boys above. What say you? A fair correspondent enquires what has be come of G.

The first quarter of the Advertiser's issue expired three weeks since, and as remitances have not been as ex tensive as we desire, we beg to call the atten tion of our patrons to the matter. We have recently made extensive additions to the Job department of this office, and now must lay in our winter stock of paper. Nothing but cash will help us out in these purchases. Town lots are not current. We hope, therefore, that those who have not complied with our terms, will do so immediately. A few of our subscri bers, also, have not paid up. Please help us out of this Mrag." We know times are hard and money scarce, and we are not disposed to be greedy; all we ask the present year, is -cash enough to meet our actual cash outlay; we can "dicker" intown lots for the ballancc.

A mad stone -was immediately applied to the wound and with such indications of suc- ces that great confidence was felt in the entire extraction of the virus. All went on we'd till last week, when the young man gave evidence of singular illnes., and died in great agony, there being no dougt but that he died of the effects of the. bite in February.

Fubnas, Esq.: Deak Sxa: Truly Nebraska may be said to be a fast country, and from the present ap pearance of things she is fully keeping np with these Railroad times in the way of improve ments, &c. . Quite a number of families have moved into this neighborhood recently, and the cry is "still they come." Three or four new houses have been raised in sight of where 1 live, within the past week, and material al ready on the ground to raise several others, all of which are located on as rich laud as can be found in any of the States, where it sells at from $10 to $50 dollars per acre. This they can get at $1,25 per sere. There are already some farms made here of over one hundred acres, which have as fine crops growing on-j them as can be produced in Ohio, Indiana, Missouri, or any other State. The average yield of the corn crop in this neighborhood is estimated at from G5 to 75 bushels per acre, including the sod crop. Wheat and oats wat raised this year with equal success. There are, also, good church and school privileges convenient; we have a school Louse and a school now being taught of 35 scholars, and the farthest of them do not have to travel Over a mile and a half so people living out of Nebraska, need not think we are out of the world. If they would come and see they would imagine themselves in the heart of cre ation. Yes, come, and that very soon, for land is being taken up very rapidly. But good chances are yet to be had to procure homes, and the longer you stay away the farther you will have to go back from the great and mighty waters of the Missouri, whose banks are to be found along the entire length of the Eastern side of Nebraska, th'us affording us a transpor tation by water to and from our numerous towns that are now being built up along our border; a great many of which are fastgrowmg into wealthy aud populous cities. I will here say a few words to the citizens of Nemaha county, by way of enquiry. There appears to be a' kind of predjuice or hard feel ing existing with a few of the people of this county against our present couuty seat. Now if some of those opposers to Brownviile wil tell us why they are so down on the citizens of said town, we will bo very glad to hear them; and if there is really anything wrong about the Brownvillo boys, let us all hear the particulars, that we may all ba apprised o their tricks. But, gentlemen, if all this hatred toward the town has arisen from some alleged misconduct of one or two of its citizens, then why are you so opposed to all who live there? There seems to me to bo no good reason in We see W. Rossell, Boot and Shoe Ma ker, late of Oregon, Mo., is "pegging away" laboring like a preacher, for the good of peo-1 pie's sjles. We need not say "we hope he will be liberally patronized." If he succeeds in doing half tho work in his line, he will have to "run all night." We are sorry to ad vise a withdrawal of Nebraska custom from our friend Cue, of Rock Port, but you know 'tis said "charity begins at home." U0TICES. Dickers' Household Words, Dix, Ed wards & Co.

"We all know that it is to the interest of every farmer in Nemaha county, to build up at least one flourishing town within her limits. Then, I would say, let us all join together, and push forward both town and country alike, and if Brownville shouli go in advance, let it go; if Nemaha City should make the most flourishing town, al right; if Mt. Vernon bo the place of noteriety, ameu to it. I haveno sectional views toward either of the above places; nor have I a dime's worth of property in any of them. But I well know that every exertion we make to keep down one portion of our community, affects all alike. As well might we say that all the land in the North half of this county, shall never advance to more than $5 per acre, as to say that we, the farmers of Nemaha, will make this a great farming country, with wide-spread fields and fine mansions, but that there shall never be a town cf any importance anywhere in the county. One would be just as impossi ble as the other. we make a rich county iu point of agriculture, we are bound to build up a considerable town eoraev.hcre among us. J. i i no lti 11 ti irvim n.
