We also there met "Our Reporter," who, upon our entree,' arose from a half-recumbent position back of the stove and smiling audibly made his exit ; and such was the effect of the excellent music, by Dye's String Band, that he waltzed, or feemed to waltz, his way to the door.

TI A PTFTi I ' Bookseller and News Ar-ent " ? Brouuviire. We propese to write . up Brownville. In doicg so we' will not pretend to make anything more than a brief history of facts as they transpired, giving to. no man or business undue prominence, thro' fear, favor, or partiality. Nor yet shun ning anything connected with the histo ry of our county on the same grounds. - Brownville was located by Richard Brown of Tennessee, but more latterly from Oregon, Mo., on August 25, 1854, who was ths first white settler in the county. Benj. B. Frazier carne directly afterwards, and was joint proprietor in the town site with Mr. Brown. A set tlement socn sprang up. Among the first pioneers were Henry Emmerson, Thomas B- Edwards, Rev Joel M Wood and Talbird Edwards; the latter of whom at once erected a Hotel, on the Levee, on the site now occupied by the Ameri can House. The first religious organization, ex cept Indian Missions, in Nebraska, was in Brownville, in; January 1855, of the Christian denomination, Rev. Joel Wood Pastor. The first School in Nebraska, except the Mission was taught in Brownville by H. S. Thorp, commencing in July, 1855. In March of the sameyear, I. T. Whyte and Wm.Hoblitzell Si Co., opened the first stock of goods in Brownville, in the building now occupied by John A. Ponn. In the Spring of '55 R. Brown, S. E. Rogers and Henry Emmerson erected the first steam saw mill in this city. building is yet standing on the southwest corner of Levee and 4Vater streets. A flat boat ferry was put in operation the same'springby Riohard Brown, and Joel Wood built what is now the City Meat Market for a Hotel. In November, 1855 Dr. A. S. Holla- day located and commenced the practice of Medicine and Obstetrics in this city, where he still Is, doubtless the most re liable landmark old Father Time has left us. In February, 1856, D, L. McGary stuck out his shingle, "Attorney and Counsellor at Law," the first limb of the law to take rootand branch out in this vicinity. April 9th, 1856-glorious day for Brow- ville, saw the landing here of the Ad vertiser outfit, plus -the material; Col. Furnas, C. S. Landon, and your humble servant, all in charge or that indefati gable "path finder," to accomplish most anything good Dr. John McPherson. Brownville, then in the county of Forney was laid off in the Spring of 1S55, by Brown, Frazier and Wood, and survey ed by Allen Coat, bad cess to him, for some of the streets are' as crooked as a dog's hind leg. : KotwTthlta n ding Brownville'srTg ar ness to the fronteer it continued to grow and prosper. The first election held in this county was at Brownville, the whole county being but one precinct. Richard Brown, Alien Coat and Israel Cumming, were the first judges of election, and xn- drew J. Benedict and Stephen Sloan the first clerks. In the organization of the county A. J. Benedict was appoint ed Probate Judge, H. W. Lake Register and Clerk, and T, B. Edwards, Sheriff. The first Legislative election, held Dec. 12th, 1854, resulted in the selection of R. Brown to the Council, and Joel M. Wood and W A. Finney, Representa- Wn wish to direct the attention of our readers to the card of .that celebrated. physician, Doctor Whitlier, of St. Louis, appearing in another column. The Dr. has been located in St. Louis for the last 15 vears. and from his lanre practice. J - M which extends throughout the whole of the great west, must have acquired great skill in the treatment ol those diseases to which he directs his particular attent ion. Everv Drson would do well to send -1 r for his Medical Papers mentioned in the advertisement. n ".; ' : We have received from Messrs. Zieg f .. ler, McCurdy St Co. Cincinnati. Ohio,' a oesv book entitled "Stowe on the Bible." It is a beautiful volume of some 5S3 pages, ine aumor is eviaentiy a ripe schollar, profoundly versed in Biblical Science and Oriental Literature. He clearly shows the Bible to be of divine origin, and successfully refutes the com mon popular .objection- to it, of iKe pres--entday. He fully exposes the ground lessness of the .silly stor7 so often re plated, that certain men got together and voted what should be ' Bible and what should not, which is said to be all the authority we have for the divine origin of the books. He gives brief biogra-. phies cf some one hundred of the ancient witnesses to the New Testament books, whose testimony is most important, and much cf it cited in this work. He gives copious extracts from certain Apocryphal Gospels, Epistles and revelations, which have been published from time to time wholly destitute of Apostolic authority, having no more resemblance to the can onical gospels than the clumsiest coun terfeit has to the genuine bank note. His candid and thorough examination of the Hegellian philosophy, founded in connection with those modern substitutes for the gospel history of the New Tes taments, written by Strauss, Renar, Schan kel, and other transcendental JNeolcgests will make the book most acceptable, and interesting to all lovers of Biblical truth. It contains many" beautiful engravings, and a strikingly correct portrait cf the author, to face the title pajje. We cafe r f unycom rnffLd -it rta alh-cfees-trf belitvers, and especially to skeptics, as'a iimelV and' valuable book, which -they will do well te purchase, and examine m their leisure. Our readers will find an advertisement of this work in another colume of this paper. . A terrible affair took place at Dyers burg,. Western Tennessee, on Tuesday, the 8ih. ' Sheriff Parkenton attempted to arrest an old man named Duncan, on the street. Duncan drew a pistol , and fired, shooting off the Sheriffs thumb. Parkenton's son, standing near, fired a pistol and killed Duncan, whose .' son coming up at the moment, fired and killed young Parkenton instantly: Seeing his son slain, the Sheriff drew his pistol and shot young Duncan through the' heart.

' The big Democratic banqaercame off at Washington last Wednesday Pres ident Johnson presided, and a lot of old hard shell Democrats and renegade Republicans, like J)oolittle, adorned the sides of the table; and Seward sent regrets.

' A late dispatch from t Washington city, says the records of the Post-office Department show that during the last fiscal year there were 13,500 changes of postmasters made, being over fifty per cent of the whole number in the country, and three thousand more than were ever before made in one fiscal year. ....
