On Monday morning last James "NY.
"Wright was arraigned for assaulting
Joseph. Casinbach, with a deadly
weapon with Intent to kill. He
plead first that he did not know he
done so. Hii counsel instructed Tiirn
to plead not guilty, when he so plead.
If Casinbach should die of the wound
thus received we shall, as we already
have, hear Jong serraong upon the
depravity and awful wickedness of
said Wright, to all of which we beg
leave to differ. We charge this mur
der, and other crimes innumerable,
upon this public system, indorsed by
many christian gentleman in the
State, which authorized the licensing
of the sale of intoxicating liquors
upon every street corner in every
town and city In the State.
Mr. James W. Wright sober on
Monday Morning, and Mr. James W.
Wright on last Saturday afternoon,
under the influence of bad whisky,
arc as unlike each other in action, ap
pearance, manners and intentions, ns
the most blood-thirsty highwayman is
unlike the meekest of our christian
ministers. Still, we suppose that
Drunken Wright will be punished as
the law directs, and the infernal tys
tern of poisoning, infuriating and
mnucxuag our unfortunate citizens
will coutinue without a protest !No
we io protest; 'and will, and are

Gazette OIlcoJ Destroyed.
Store House of Rlsodes & Tin
gle Curncd to the Ground.
LOSS NOT YET ASCERTAINED.
P3 the stage which arrived this
morning we learn of a destructive fire
which occurred - in Tecumsch, last
Sunday night The Gazelle office and
material was entirely destroyed.
The Cook store room, occupied by
Rhodes & Tingle was burned to the
ground, and much of the stock of that
firm destroyed. This is the heaviest
fire that has ever occurred in that town
and the loss will be greatly felt. We
have not ascertained whether there
was auy Insurance or not.
Since writing the alove we learn
the fire originated from lightning, and
that when it was discovered Dr. Pres
son was found insensible near the
office door and was not brought too
until after the fire.
Lady's Eriuestrlansh'p.
The Lady's Riding Match, yesterday
afternoon, was, so far, one of the most
interesting features of the Fair. The
Ladies competing were Miss Mary
Haywood, Mi-s Ellen Strong, Miss
Starry, Mrs. Stevens and Mrs. Reason.
While the Awarding Committee, cho
sen on the ground by the President,
consisted of Judge Dundy, of Rich
ardson county, Dr. C. F. Stewart, W.
II. Larkins, M. H. Vandeventer and
T. J. Majors.
The Committee decided that raceing
or very fast riding should not be al
lowed, which being communicated
to the ladies, the ride commenced in a
spirited manner. All handled their
horses well, yet some it could be seen
lalored under disadvantages. The
Riding lasted for about one hour, dur
ing which time they exercised in dif.
fcrent gaits, doing, it is presumed in
each their bet, and a more graceful
looking lot of ladies than they were
seldom seen together on horseback.
The Committee having dc-ided the
Ladies were called in and the follow
ing awards made :
1st Premium, Miss Mary Haywood.
2d Premium, Mrs, Paris Stevens.
SJ Premium, Mrs. J. H. Beason.
There was but one incident that
came near marring the pleasure of the
occasion. The saddle girth of the
horse rode by Mrs, Stevens became
lose and her horse under fair headway
stopping suddenly at the stand she
was precipitated to the ground, yet
not hurt. Altogether the Riding
Match was a perfect success.

On last Saturday at the Republican
caucus for Brownville precint, two
persons, one named JamesW. Wright
and the other Joseph Casinbach, both
residents of Sonora Island, endeavored
to vote for delegates to the county
convention. On questioning, the fact
was elicited that they were both Dem
ocrats, and consequently their votes
were refused. They come in together,
and lett at the same time. In less
than one hour thereafter James W.
Wright fatally stabbed Joseph Casin
Lack near the diaphram, with a large
Iocket knife. They commenced quar
relling near Dr. Holladay's drug
store, Wright calling Cainba.ch a
horse-thief, and Casinbach calling
Wright a hog-thief. Then Wright
wheta his knife on a gutter stone, near
the side walk ; Wright walks down to
Ponn's corner, raying that he would
cut him open, or cut his heart-out.
Casinbach. soon came down to where
Wright was. Wright stabbed Casin
back several times. There appeared
to be no effort upon the part of Casin
bach to fight, but merely to resist the
blows of Wright. Wright was taken
to Jail to await as examination on
Monday morning, and Casinbach is
in the bands of Drs. Stewart and
Bruce Arnold, with but slight hopes
of recovery.

and improved methods of culture.
There is no better place- to listen- to

sure to be at the Colonel's residence.

' FIRST OAT.-'
The Nemaha County Fair oiened
up yesterday morning very lively.
The express wagons, omnibusses and
livery teams were hailedon every
street corner by passengers for the
Fair Grounds, one mile south-east of
the city. Teams were coming in early
from the country, loaded with articles
for exhibition. ,
Arriving upon the grounds as early
as 9 o'clock a. mV, we found the Sec
retary surrounded, by an auxious
crowd, awaiting the entries of those
in advance, . The managers iu every
department were busy receiving and
arranging for the various articles on
exhibition. We found Col. Furnas,
H. O. Minick, Huston Russell, Geo.
Crow, F. K. Allen, Ira Moore, S. W.
Kennedy, F. A. Tisdel, W. II. Lar
kin, W. T. Den, E. M. McComas, G.
W. Bratton, B. F. Sauder, Dr. Blake,
Rev. Davis, Maj. Daily, CoL Majors,
S. M. Rich, and many others, under
full"headway, doing what they could
to make the Fair a splendid success.
There were but few entries made the
dav previous, but thev were beinjr
filled up yesterday to the entire satis
faction of all present, dispeling the
sombre feelin-r prevailing: by the
cloudy weather of yesterday.
The entries of stock has not yet
been large. We saw some good hogs,
one by E. M. McComas that was va
riously estimated to weigh from six
to eicht hundred. There are about
fifteen rods of sheep and hog pens,
and about thirty rods of sheds for
stock of all kinds, and lumber ready
to increase the same to an unlimited
extent.
In the line of fruits we noticed for
ty varieties of apples, and severa
different specimens of most of these
varieties. Six varieties of peaches,
four of Siberian crab apples, and three
small limbs hanging full of this ex
cellent fruit, which were displayed to
excellent advantage. We saw a new
variety of the plum called the sloe,
six varieties of pears, eight varieties
of grapes, and cans and glasses of
preserves too numerous to mention.
The potatoe department is well
represented. McComas, Russell, Fur
nas and others have .the Goodrich,
Xeshannock, Rose, Peach Blow,
Shaker Russet, Early Miller, Fluke,
Russet Coat, Early June, Prince Al
bert, Mercer, Buckey, Arago, Dover,
Morton, Harrison, Shaw, Calico, and
other sorts of early potatoes.
Parsnips and carrots two feet long;
cucumbers too long and big for belief ;
winter radishes fifteen inches long
and as many around ; beets,' turnips,
onions, cabbage and mellons, well de
veloped and of mammoth, size ; corn
In every variety piled up.; punkins,
squashes, fcc
In the agricultural implement line
we noticed twelve different plow
corn shellers, fanning mills, potato
diggers, garden hoes, seed drills,
walking cultivators, thrashers, fcc.
The Great Western Fire Extin
guisher, samples of Dentistry work,
zoological siecimens, carpeting, chair
and ottoman cushions, mats, fancy
needle work, saddles, harness, bee
hives, buffalo Horns, Cashmere Goat
pelts and their wool, Iu large variety ;
honey: gallery of chromos, litho
graphs and paintings; sweet corn
golden dwarf poach trees in pots;
shrubbery, house plants, jellies, pat
ent grind stones ; cutter made by Me
Fall, ironed by Wood at Helmer's
shopand painted by Bryant & Lem-
mon, were among the entries made,
and there is abundant competition iu
most every line.
The trotting was good, and the lady
riding was excellent.
The best of feeling was prevailing
among the exhibitors. Every new
man who comes in brings something
that seems to beat the ballance, or he
finds himself beaten by the previous
arrivals. Some are measuring their
corn, vegetables, apples, pears, pota
toes, &.c, with their neighbors, and
bantering back and forth as to who
will receive the premium.
There are two pumps on the ground
one for watering the stock, and the
other for those present. For the first
day we pronounce the Fair more than
a success, and the air is full of proph
esy of what the morrow will bring
forth. By the rules of the Associa
tion all entries must be made by noon
of to-day.
Our fruit men are in the best of
spirits. You can fairly see the eyes of
Furnas, Bratton, Russell, J. Q. A
Smith, H. Alderman, Shellenberger
Bros, H. O. Minick, J. C. Deuser, W.
G. Glasgow, Mrs. Loveless, Mrs.
Harding, and others, fairly-eparkle
with delight as they survey the apples,
peaches, grapes, pears, plums, crabs,
fcc, andnone but are tempted to taste
as they examine.
We hope to-day will increase our
happiness and good feeling, and that
the whole county will be present to
witness what can be done at the Xer
maha County Fair.
SCCOXD DAY.
Wednesday morning the fair open3
up finely. The farmers and strangers
are coming in this morning in large
numbers. Cows, 6teers, oxen, bulls,
stallions, brood mares, matched hor
ses, saddle horses, pacers, rackers and
fast trotters followed each other in
rapid succession ; coops of chickens,
ducks, and wagon loads of pigs are
filing in past the Secretaries desk In
large number. ' '
. The teams of farmers are filling up
the grounds assigned for that purpose.
The track is being well patronized.
Among the number of good horses
and their drivers we notice J. R.
Larkin and his trown horse to gig,
Mr. Bagley with his three year old,
Dr. Cowles with his chestnut to bug
gy, James Berry and his bay mare to
buggy, Dr. Iloliaday and hi. big
brown under saddle, J&s, R. Dye and
his cream colored to buggy without
bridle, Major Daily with his bro'n to
gig, S. P. Tuttle with black filley to
buggy and several others whose riders
were to us unknown. The practice
showed good horsemanship and very
fine speed.
In addition to the articles enteral
yesterdr.y -we find that Iletzel aod
May have a good display of clothing,
Deri a -fine display of most excellent
woolen goods, Shellenberger Bro. and
J. C. Deuser ample varieties of stoves,
tinware and hardware, Miss Bertlj's
samples of dressing hair from the
chignon to the lesser curls, Mrs. Dr.
Blake's silk bed spreads, Mrs. Torter
with her cluster, Mrs. Barges' fine
specimens of the Wheeler & Wilson
Sewing Machine, Mrs. Graham an or
gan, Mrs. Furnas' boquets of flowers
in Pyramids and the rock rose or res-errec-tion
plant, Miss Davidson vith
her fruits in wax work, Mr. Carson
with his cabinet of silver ores from
Montana, Mr. Campbell -of London
with his cows and calves, Mr. Tcrrill
with his bull and cows, Mr. McComas
with his pigs, Mr. Starry with his
Buffaloes, Mr. Den with his deer,
Mrs. Russell, with her bread, cakes,
&c. ; somebody with sacks of flour;
Mrs. Bear, with her beautiful sjrnplps
of millinery goods; AY. W. Hatkney,
with his boots and shoes ; Mrs. Love
less, with piles of apples, peaches,
pears, tomatoes, and other fruls and
vegetables ; W. G Glasgow wlh sev
eral varieties apples, besides iosts of
others too numerous to mentbn, all
contributing to make the fair lseful,
beneficial and instructive.
We noticed upon the grounds hany
strangers Judge E. S, Dundy of Pick
ardson, Dr. Graff from Omaha, Judgs
Cairns of Atchison, Mr. II. B. Stror
and Rev. E. D. Thillps of Johusou
county, and many others whose nanes
we did not learn. j
There were a good many hunded
people on the ground. There waso
disturbance or disorder, but the i3t
most harmony prevailel throughout
the entire day.
At four o'clock in the afternoon thi
base ball match came off upon tlidJ
414 tj.iwu4iuf uevnecu tut; mice i tuui
Lrothers. Mnrnliv. Jonps. Cnmpron.l

Yahn and Cox, of St. Deroin,who
made 22 runs, and Furnas, McXaugh
ton, Ceci, Shellenberger McCabe,
Galley, Daily, Moulton and Harrison
of Brownville, who made but 18 runs.
This wa3 a well contested match, and
was witnessed by a vast concourse of
people, 4vho crowded too 'close upon
the ring for the restless disposition of
the police managers. The St. Deroin
boys took the premium, for which
they worked active and with a good
degree of scientific training. The
Brownville boys will be for making
another run on the St. Deroin club
on their stamping ground in St. De
roin, when they will expect to make
the home stretch. ' To-morrow is the
finishing day of the Fair and the big
dayf The crowd will be immense,
but we expect and know that it wil
close with entire satisfaction. .
THIRD DAT. .' ;
Thursday, the last day of the Fair,
came in bright, warm and windy.
The road to the fair grounds were
thronged all day long with goers and
comers. The crowd on the ground
was immense The Hall, in which
was displayed most of the smaller ar
ticles on exhibition, said to be 300 feet
long by 30 feet wide, was so packed
full of women, men and chillren, that
it was scarcely possible for the com
mittees to make their exaninations.
The interest was notabatedln this de
partment until about 3 o'clck I. M
when the trotting commented. We
have noticed about all that ii on exhi
bition worthy of note, excepting it
may be W. T. Den's f how case of fire
arms and equipments, his live deer,
his antelope, deer and buffilo head
and horns, exhibited as meiaentoes of
his hunting hays. The two live buff
aloes of Starry's were centre of inter
est, The apples presented ly Lyana
have their history: T. R. Fhher eight
years ago, when he owned tie Adver
tiser office, purchased a peel; of apple
seed with which to start a nursery ;
the mice ate the most ; Fishtr planted
most of the ballance, and Lyana a
small handful of the seed frcm which
grew the trees that produce the large,
superior Lyana apple now attracting
so much attention at the fair ; and now
the old citizens of this county have it
to lament that they did not economise
just sufficient time and labor ten years
since, which are productions of such
vast benefits and results in the pres
ent. Then commence now, and eight
vears hence Lvaua's experience will
be yours more fully amplified.
We took to-day more especial notice
of the stock out of fifty entries of
horses we mentioned. Wni. Linn's
dark bay stud with brood mare and
colts by his side, and especially the
colt of his owned by nenry Hart,
of Aspinwall ; a dark brown stallion,
nine years old by Robert Sayer;
heavy Messenger -4ay -ei&Jlion. 1U
hands, weight 1,244 pounds, owned by
George Ashley ; a Morgan and Ham
blibonia, four years old, 16 hands,
weight 1,300, owned by C.C.Hale;
the Argabright stallion, so well and
favorably known throughout the
southern portion of the county ; the
yearling Durham bull and heifer,
owned by John Delay and Johnathan
Higgins, bull weighing 900 pounds;
J. I. Terrell's Durham bull, weight
1,900, four years old ; Amos Hughes's
grade bull, three years old ; also his
cow and calf, and Mr. Campbell's two
cows and their calves. : - -
The show of pigs was good, but not
large. The account of the trotting
we will fiive in a separate article. Al
together the show was good, the
weather fine, and the officers and com
munity satisfied.' .
Gold went as high as 144J to-day,
but finally closed at 14321433.
The annual report of the national
Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows shows
that there has been 41,000 initiations
during the post year, making a total
membership of 200,000." Theorder has'
$9,500,000 invested above the present
needs.
The Meshannoci potatoes on exhi
bition by the Advertiser oSice from
the farm of Benj. Savil are much the
argest in receipt at the Fair. "
We rather think Mr. Dundas' earn
has been beat several times.
Gen. Sherman has ordered the elec
tion iu Texas to coutinue four days.

made. The oposition has done onq
good thing. It has arroused the Pro
fessor and set him earnestly and ac
tively at work. This has been the
great obstacle he has had to contend
with a disposition to house himself
up, plodding his way among statistics
and dead matter. We do actually
and firmly believe the Professor has
done more good in the cause of educa
tion the past two weeks than in all
his previous terms. The people want
to see him and hear from him what
fiie intends and is doing. He promises

ol his- coming.-

A more harmonious and pleasant
contest of the kind it is seldom any
one's province to witness. Its gene
ral management, resting particularly
with Messrs. F. A. Tisdd, B. Rogers
and Eli Wilcox, gave good satisfaction,
not a murmarof complaint either on
or off the stand was heard. A little
betting was done, but nothing what
ever occurred to make this feature ob
noxious to the most fastideous.
Premium Drawers Attention.
We are requested by Col. Furnas to
state that as himself, J. Q. A. Smith,
Treasurer, and H. O. Minick, Secreta
ry, have been down at theground and
up town all of to-day (Friday), paying
off Premiums, and as all are not yet
paid, that the ballance cannot be paid
now, as he will nave to be at tne State
Fair during" the next two weeks.
Due notice will be given of the next
sitting of the officers to pay premi
ums. 'The BrovrnTille Dand
Is certainly deserving of the thanks
of the "crowd assembled at the track
on the Fair ground Wednesday for the
really excellent music they made for
the occasion. . It was voluntary and
gratis on their part, the Society's de
termination to pay so many premiums
in cash having debarred it from adding
paid music through the Fair to its ex-
cciient entertainment. e nearu
them play 'Up in a Balloon," a new
tune brought from London and pre
sented to them by John orthing;
for which he has the Band s thanks.
S50 Purse for Cest Trottiny.
John P. Dopf, Secretary of the At
chison county, Mo,", Agricultural As
sociation requests us, by letter, to state
that besides the iiberal Premiums of
fered by the Society, the citizens of
Rockport offer a purse of $-30 for the
best trotting, and $25 for the second
best This fair comes otf next W ed-
sday. Thursday and Friday. e
hope some fast stock will go over, as
that side made a good showing on our
track.
R. V. Black, R. A. Hawley, R. A.
Stewart, H. Utechtand J. Higgins are
spoken of to fill the office of Commis
sioner after the expiration of Phillip
Starr's term. The district from which
the candidate must be selected lies
west the centre of Glen Rock Doug
las and Bedford precincts. The five
persons above named are representa
tive farmers from as many different
sections of that Commission district.
They are all good men, and let which
ever may be nominated, they will
make worthy successors of our pres
ent efficient Commissioner, Phillip
Starr. Mr. Starr will soon have served
u three years, and none can say but
he has conscientiously done his duty.
Three years of service as an officer hs
taken the county through a critical
period since the close of the war, up
to the present proud position of our
county. If he has been too slow for
some, he has been too fast for others,
thereby adopting the golden mean
which is often the safest course in
public affairs.
That sack of delicious peaches, left
for us at the P. O., was duly delivered
by captain Polock. They came from
the orchard of Mr. Harding near Lon
don, and were presented by his
estimable ladv to whom the thanks
of ourfamily have been repeated times
without number. These evidences
that Southern Nebraska is a good
fruit country are multiplying upon us
every day by the good and enterpris
ing people of Nemaha county for
which they deserve well of the county
and State.
D. Y. Culbertson, of Glen Rock, has
just returned from old crawford coun
ty, Ta., where he has been visiting
many friends at Meads ville. He
took with him a variety of fruit from
the Loveless farm, near London. He
says they admit the Nebraska fruit to
be superior to any they raise except in
the line of peaches. He found that
the Advertiser was producing a good
impression in the East, creating an
itching among many to seek homes in
Nebraska.
A good many voluntarily subscribed
for the Advertiser this week and oth
ers order us to send copies regularly
to eastern friends. We are truly great
ful for the words of good cheer every
where extended to us in our effort to
swerve the public. Our friends will
find the present number a good one to
to send away. Vv'e hope every man
who receives this paper will read and
then send it east for their friends to
read, and then re-send it to some one
else. .
Our cotemporary asks our citizens
to "advertise Brownville" by send
ing off a paper, the editor of which
boldly offers to sell himtelf! The
journalistic integrity of this section
would gain little credit by such an
advertisement. We wish it distinctly
understood that the business and en
terprise of Brownville is sufficient to
sustain at least one paper withoutna

From the kitchen to the oricle seems
but a small step for our cotemporary,
yet it makes his prophecy smell won
derfully of bacon.

last week he offered to sell himself:

a small mistake ; yet, as it3 "amimal"

as to the variety of tunes it plays, and
