OS THE "WIJfG.
That is 1C railroad travel, when one is not
Ubed to it, can possibly be compared to the
movements of the Inhabitants of the air.
tfcliad a b'"tultous"wettln8"of our"8tore
elotlie"on leaving Brownvllle last Tuesday
mornfnK, and the storm raged until we
reached-Fhelps. IVe got outside to keep dry,
as the cloth stretolied over the transfer wagon
bad been dry so long that it leaked a little.
Ofco-irse Jt quit rataing as soon as we
reached the depot, and,xre went as fast as the
bt team in Southern Nebraska that means
"jnkeV buss team could take us.
Taking the down train at 11: JO, we reached
St. Joseph about two tclock, and had to wait
far the &15 train for Hannibal. The St. Joe.
i C B. road is in very good condition. This
ve ao't ho- from our own siericnce, but it
vras the comments of several gentlemen who
ftsdeomeo-nt from Sew York to buy land,
and were on their way back and they nro
sounccd it a first class road, of course taking
into cois,(Jcrat,on that il vas DllWt on lue
bottom, and could hot yet be ballasted up to
-i first class road. To us the ride seemed
pleasant to what it was on the II. A St. Joe.
Ave vears ago. It is also officered by perfect
ceiitiemeii, even down to the news boy; from
all you get a civil answer and prompt atten
tion. Especially wasthLs true with regard to
the conductor, wlw fa our beau-tdeal of what
a conductor should be.
a couple of hours, with a foar on one's
mind of being left by the train, gives onebut
a small gllmp-e of such a city .as St, Joseph.
31 is thriving; and the class of buildings now
being built are bubstantlal i;nd beautiful, al
though It now has several structures which
-h-ouM ornament any city la the world.
yc called on Messrs. "VVbolworth & Colt,
-end found them at No. 83 Felix street, full of
business. Mr. Carter kindly showed us
thropgh the establishment. They have a
large stock in their line; and from what we
saw there and know, they seldom fail to give
buyers substantial proof that It is a "wicked
wiu-tcof time" to go farther than their house
for books, wall paper, or printer's stock. A
visit to their bindery convinced us that they
do, and can do as good and fine work in large
or small blank books, as can be done any
vhtrc. They are not so much on the "ginger
bread" as the substantial; although their
work is neatly and tastefully gotten up, of
which one order will convince any one. We
pay this with a knowledge that they have
several orders from Southern Nebraska, as
we know they will give satisfaction. They
will increase their facilities greatly this sea
son. From hero we dropped Into the Union
office, but found the "head-centre' of that
concern absent. From here, having still a
little Icsisure, we started for the Herald, and
on our way were agreeably surprised to meet.
In the palatial establishment of Lemon &
Hosea, our old friends The. Green and A.
"W. Hawley, of Peru. They were laying In a
portion of their new t,tock to be opened up in
Peru In a few days. They design purchasing
at least $20,000 worth of goods, and opening a
first class establishment. They are Vie men
for the business.
At the Herald we found A. H. Hollowell,
one of the proprietors, with whom we almost
forgot that we were going otr on the train
which was to leave In a few moments. The
flourishing condition of the Herald is well
deserved, as it Is one of the best dallies pub
lished on the Missouri river. In thecoinpos
lug room we met our -'old friend and fellow
.pitcher" in the conduct of the Advertiser,
-Geo. W. Hill. He looks well, and was sling
ing type lively.
The ride from St. Joseph to Hannibal was
without other incident than a heavy rain all
nlcht. that made things moist even In the
cars. At Hannibal we got aboard the City of
SU TVihI, and two hours ride .brought is to
Louisiana to friends and relatives, wnom
we found well and prospering. Louisiana Is
a town of fifty years growth, and has a pop
ulation of about 1,000. It is the great tabacco
emporium on tha Mississippi above St. Lou
is, with six large factories, giving employ
ment to a great number of men. Xcxt to,
and, perhaps, equal to the tobacco Interest, Is
that of plnelumber.nndltsmanufacturelnto
different articles uxed in building. Lumber
yards are plenty, yet no three, according to
cur observation, do a business equal to J. R.
Bell iSon, of our city. It has three large
flouring mills, a machine shop and foundry
Many churches rear tlielr spires to the skies,
and a schodl hou-st as large on the ground,
and one story higher than ours, has just been
completed, and will be occupied for a free
school in a short time. There aro iour im3
fechools in operation now. Its site is much
better than r. view from the river would In
dicate; and Its buildings as aSoss above the
average of towns of Its size; in fact there are
qultea nuihber of beautifully 'designed and
erected dwellings, tbat would attract atten
tion and admiration anywhere. Ithas many
flrst elass stores, and its strict, on an aver
se, arc good, yet susceptible of much im
itnprovemcnt. IU local trade with the sflrrouEdlng coun
try, is good. Its citizens, like ours liaveliad
"railroad on the brain." We say have had,
because it Is now developed Into actual work,
and the completion of the grade from this
place to Mexico, Their object Is a straight
connection with the Missouri river and the
Ontmi T-in!fl. "Railroad. The road lsso"far4
advanced that there can be no possible doubt
that some company able to equip theToad
will run it; which, once In operation, Louis
iana will bo one of the raot flourishing cities
on the Mississippi.
We took a strole to Pike County Fair
Grounds, just out of the olty.tcn. Thursday,
which we found beautifully situated and well
aixed and arranged. From here we passed on
toSf-ark, Harnett i Co.'s nursery, where we
found Its proprietors up to their elbows in the
ground, busy planting out an orchard of 112(30
apple trees. We walked over their grounds
of about 100 acres, which they have all In
apples and other fruit, from the seed Just put
In to two years old. The havesei this season
about 500,000 apple grafts, and have nearJ
3,000,000 grafted apples from grafts to two J
years old. They have also otlwr fruits, yet
-apples are their "main holt," and a strong
oneitis, too. This Is on their new nursery. I
of which they have only had possession two ,
years. Their grapes, and much of their older ;
Zrult stock, aro on Mr. Starlc's place, two '
miles west of the Bowling Green road, on
which they now are situated. We found
them perfect gentlemen, and reliable men, as
we saw them give their business their person
al attention, thus -ensuring It always well
done.
Wehavc, of connse, dropped Into the print
ing offices here, and were not a llttie sur
3rised to find a first ciasa Taylor Power Press
In the Journal; yet oursurprlse wore off when
we saw that theirs was a. first class outfit
throughout. It Is a good looking paper, nd
Just what we like to see mvq Its politics,
which are very conservative. In the fullest
sense of that word. It, of course, has a large
circulation, as this section has been conserv
ative ever since it first bad a chance to be.
Yet the hand writing Is on the wall, and even
Democrats feel that unless they chango the
writing to mean "tickle you niger," their
hour has come
We called at the Gazette office next, where
we found one of its proprietors, Mr. Rogeis,
busily at work readlHg proof, and but little
time to devote to us. We found the Gazette
supplied with good material.snd turaingout 1
good work. It is alive paper, and after a
stormystrnggle almost against fate Itself, it

it gains. It has now a good circulation and

width and length of an ordinary bed, with a good

THE PICTURE GALLERY
-.Of Mount &. Bennett, in this city, is the
roost complete establishment of the kind in
Southern Nebraska. It has been completely
re-modeled under the flew proprietors, who
have made it their aim to give greater con
venience in the preparation or toilet room,
and to Increase their facilities for taking pic
tures. They have now a good large reception
room ; a neat toilet room, a room for their,
chemicals, and the Gallery proper. In the
Gallery they have one feature which is not
equalled by any wo have ever seen, it Is a
series of serenes Just below the sky light, by
which the operator can throw the Ught Just
where he, wishes, In fact he has the light en
tirely, at his command, and can takepictures
"from early morn to dusky eve;" In fact at
any time of the day. Their picture case at
the foot of, the steps shows that they cannot
be excelled as artists; they are as good, if not
the best lot of Ambrotypes we ever saw.
They do work cheap, too, thatis Just as. low
as possible and make a living. Give them a
call and "catch the shadow ere the substance
fails" Up stairs over No. 47.
