They de serve great credit for what they have done, therefore, under the surrounding circumstances, and from present indica tions, will have all the business they can attend to, notwithstanding the opening and rapid filling up of the new hotel. The proprietors, Messrs Morrison and Wheeler, we are gratified to know are giving the most perfect satisfaction in every respect. That they will continue to do so, the public may rest assured; for they are agreeable and gentlemanly in their intercourse, and understand well their business. Steamer Twilight. The government steam er Twilight passed down the river yes terday. She has been up above the mouth of the Yellowstone. She had one of the steam musical instruments aboard on which was played as she neared our City, and again on leaving, several pop ular tunes, which of course caused a gen eral rush to the wharf. On hearing it we couldn't help thinking of ".2 r"ode to ye Lauiope, written by some comical genius "Spoons," if we remember right when the "machine" first made its ap pearance as a Circus accompaniment. "Infernal screecber! What in thunder do you mean hy yelling So 1 fired loud ? Docs anything hurt you. Or have you got a cholic in your bowels. An caul' help it? Say, you sqalit.k cuss! Slahby they feed you on steam, and you squeal Because it's hot, and burns your in'ards. And mahby you yell because you like to, And think it sounds purtv? You whislink fool Which is it? Does it take all them hosses To draw you round and get to much nois out ? Why dou't you bust your hi I it, darn you, And thpn shut up your old squalking machine Tou forty-hoss-power pianticron wheels, With a steam-engine playink onto you And making more nois that forty thousand Busted French horns with the key open, And the mouth-piece cracked !

Blow away, youyellink cuss Infernal screecber, adieo!-' Wcddin?, Almost Frustrated Al most a Wedding, Frustrated- On the afternoon of the fifth two young- couple from Nebraska city arrived at the Brownville House, having left be hind not the "one loved best" but ob jecting Mas and Pas. Steps were imme diately taken by the parties to become united in the "holly bonds of wedlock;" the first of course was to procure the papers." The issuing officer was traced to Nemaha City, who being buzily en gaged "making fourth of July," and hav ing no blanks or record book, with him gave an order to the Minister to "splice "em," and it should be "right in the mor ning" regular Licence issued. Thus provided for, the Minister was summon ed ; a party assembled in the Hotel Par lor; the happy couple "on the floor," ready to "join right hands," and be pro nounced "man and wife." The minister not yet having become possessed of the necessary evidence to authorize him to proceed , called for the "documents," and was handed the afore-mentioned "order," a glance at which caused a shake of the head, and a "this wont answer." There was a "dead halt," sure ; a "slip be- twixt cup and lip," ana -wnat s t" be done," was the "question before the house." The couple retired to their room and after consultation, a "Deputy Judge" was thought of, who, upon being found, issued the regular license, and the "ball went on." To the other couple. The "unnecessary delay" had given "material aid" to the "old centleman." who, havins cot "wind" of the elopement, was in "hot pursuit," and arrived "just in time to prevent "any further ceremony." He took charge of the "naughty girl;" "looked daggers" at, and used hard words to the "young gent. - In short, that Lail didn t goon "Sich is life," and, :how pleasant every thing is." The river is in excellent bcatinrr order at present. Connty Court The County Court forNemaha county is now in session and has been since Tues day last. Present, Judges Hall, Cole and Saunders; ClerkE. E. Pabkib. - The prayers of, petititioners, asking a vote on the re-location of the county-seat, has been granted ; the vote to be taken at the same time and place a3 the com ing County election. The contract for erecting a county jail was awarded to Mr. Baker; The build ing is to be a cheap affair, simply suffic ent for present purposes. ' New AdTertiseraenls. We omitted to notice the number of new advertisements which appeared in our paper last week. James Ferccson, Esq., offers forsale at" public auction, a rare opportunity to become possessed of some of the finest building lots in this city. M. Lamarqtje, & Co., of Nebraska City, advertise an elegant stock of Jew elry, WTatches, Clocks, &c. We have had an opportunity of examining their stock and can vout-K for tlie-corrsctiess of their . ' - - his serFice'ttI:i3 -community in the way of Bock binding. Patronize him. Mr. J. M. Chapel has opened a se lect school in this city, and asks the pat ronage of parents and guardians. We need say nothing as to the necessity of educating the rising generation. R. L. Dodge, Esq., Attorney at Law, locates in this City. His card will be found in another column. He comes well recommended, and has thus far made a favorable impression. Drowned- q The body of another man was taken from the river, just below the steamboat landing on Monday last, very much decomposed. Yet another. A body was taken from the river near Sonora, on Saturday last. A friend at our elbow thinks "there must be somebody tip the river knocking peo ple in the head of late." 1 i i BrowiiTille Orators. There must be considerable "Spread Eagle," and "Star and Stripe" about Brownville, if we may be allowed to judge from the number of orators it furnished on the Fourth. Mr. Tipton delivered the oration at Nemaha City; Mr. McGary at Saint Stephen ; Mr. M. F. Clark at Peru; Mr. U. C. Johnson in this city; and we may say the Editor was solicited to of ficiate in that capacity at Table Rock, but owing to other pressing engagements was unable to accept the invitation. United States Express- We are xjch pleased to announce that the United States Express Company have extended their line from Saint Jo seph to Council Bluff; placed a messen ger on the steamer Watossa, and appoin ted Crane & Hill of this city, agents. This will prove of incalculable benefit to our business men in making remittances, and others in Bending or receiving valu able packages, St. Joseph Dairj gazette. One of the very best papers we re ceive is the St. Joseph Daily Gazette. With the facilities of obtaining news at St. Joseph, and our daily mail communi cation with that city, the Gazette can but prove the most reliable and beneficial paper with which our business men can provide themselves. - Hon. Jas. Crai Reached St. Joseph on the 30th. He will proceed, says the Gazette, at once to fill his appointments on the stump through out the District. Mansfleld- . . . The Clerk of the Steamer Mansfield has our thanks for late papers. This boat takes the place of the Dan Con verse and will run as a regular packet between St. Joseph and Council Bluff. Queries. Did any one find the Calliope at the blacksmith -hop, bakery, or in the mustard thicket? If so, who was it? Was any one sold in going to the river? We did injustice to the ' enterprise of our worthy citizen, Esq., Kennedy, last week, by saying he had "enclosed by hedge 40 acres." He has 160 acres thus enclosed. The number of land warrants or cer tificates i?sued in May, under the act of the 3d of March 1S55, were 1,0S5; 20, 170,000 acres of land are required to sat isfy the warrants issued. A. LTFORD. J. T.

UPRIGHT STEAM SAW 3IIXX. This mill commands the universal admiration of saw mill men everywhere. As its merits become known, the demand tor it increases. Orders are coming from every section of this country, Canada, Cuba, and South Ameri ca. It is suited for every section of the world wherever there is timber to be sawed, no matter of what character how bard, how large or how small. Two extensive ma nufactories are now engaged In building these mil Is, yet it is almost impossible to turn them out as fast as tbey are wanted. They embrace several valuable patenla and improvements, and combine all of the following ad- StmviicU'j Both the mill and power axe so simple In their construction that any one of ordinary mechanical ability can comprehend them, put them up and run them without d inger or difficulty. Portability The whole establishment can be very quickly takeu apart and put togetbor, thus rendering it easy to be moved from place to pi joe asdesired, and sav in? tne necessity of drawing tbe logs a king distance to Durability It is constructed in the meat solid and substantial manner, runs perfectly still. Is net Uable tl get out of order, and will last for years without repair. ' liamaity it win saw faster than any other upright upright mill. The speed of the saw is about three hun dred strokes per minute, and the feed from one-eighth to three-quarters of an inch per stroke. Thus, at a medians speed the saw will cut through a log twenty-four feet long m about three minutes. From this data any one knowing the character of the timber can calculate hew much it will do. Fjfiiciency It does its work well, cuts smoother an4 Straiguter than the ordinary mills, and tbe arrangement of the saw is such as to render It utterly kmposatele lot it to run out of line. Checj?nes$ The entire lost of the mill, with Bfte horse power and everything all complete and revU for running, boxed and reacr for shipment ia St. Louis, U only $1,750. This mill require less power to drl7e than any other mill, and the power furnished is sufficient to drive extra machinery. A circular containing full particulars will be sent W any one desiring it.
