A glance at the corner of the alley
on 4th street, between Atlantic and
Nemaha, will convince any one. that
this firm mean business, this season,
and do not intend to lack for room
to supply the demand for their work.
They have this spring erected one
two story building IS x 20, and one
two story 12 x 12. The lower floor of
the first will be used for rolling and
steming room, the upper floor for sort
i ng, storing leaf, etc. The other Is
for casing. Besides which they have
a room IS x 20 on the corner of the al
ley, which is used for press and sales
room, and which was their only room
last season.
Besides this they have scaffolding
erected all round for drying purposes.
Should the present demand for their
smoking tobacco increase as it must,
as, long as smokers appreciate a good
smoke they will be forced to erect
additional rooms for this branch.
Their facilities now are such that
they can put on ten or twelve, hands,
and manufacture from 30,000 to 50,000
pounds, which they intend doing this

Mayor Cogswell's Inaugural.
To the Jlonorablc Council of the City
of Brovmvillc :
Gentlemen :
In commencing the dis
charge of my duties as Mayor of the
city of Brownville, I desire to present
fo'r your consideration some matters
that I deem to be of vital interest to
our city. And in doing so, allow me
to express the hope that you will give
them careful attention, bearing in
mind that the private interests of no
one must be fostered where that in
terest is injurious to the growth and
prosperity of the city of Brownville.
It is our duty to see that not one dol
lar of money is paid out of the City
Treasury except what is absolutely
necessary.
And in this connection, I would
earnestly recommend that you devise
some means by which you can com
pel all owners of lots in the city to
keep the sidewalks, gutters, and the
streets in front of said lots to the cen
ter of the streets clean, and at their
own expense.
2nd. Allow no account for work
done on the streets, by Marshal,
Street Commissioner, or others, unless
said account is properly itemized, pro
ven or sworn to, and on the basis of
ten hours per day actual time worked.
3rd. A reduction in the salary of
the City Marshal, and a reduction in
salaries of all other city officers where
the same is needed.
I would recommend to your honor
able body, that you make arrange
ments to have one-third of the city
printing done at the office of the
Brownville Democrat, and two-thirds
of the same done at the office of the
Nebraska Advertiser.
The interests of. Brownville de
mand that the cost of ferriage or
transportation of goods, teams, etc.,
crossed the Missouri Biver at this
point, should be as low a3 at other
crossings on the Biver; therefore I
would suggest that you appoint a
committee to confer with the Ferry
or Tran-fer Company, this committee
to earnestly request said Company to
publish and charge as low rules of
Ferriage as t'.ey do at Nebraska City.
While I am aware that we have one
of the best crossings on the Missouri
River, a good, responsible and ac
comodating Company owning and
conducting the Transfer and Ferriage
business, yet I am inclined to the
opinion that our rates of ferriage are
too high, consequently make this re
commendation. I am respectfully, &e.,
A. P. Cogswell.
Mayor,

This being the season of planting,
and many persons believing in doing
such things by signs, and almanac
calculations for favorable results, we
give below for the benefit of such, the
calculations from Josh Billings's al
manac for the balance of this month:

He spent his time a drlnklnsycler,
Together he worked a cow and a muel,
And never sent his boys to skewel.

By following closely the above cal

be relied upon. We would remark
also, that the grand success of Hor

is because of his application of these

Circus.
On next Monday thejlrst Circus ev
er fitted up in Nebrska will unfold its
pavilon in our midst. It was organized
at Lincoln and it?, to all intense and
purposes, a Nebraska establishment
and institution.
We elip the following from the
Council BIu lis Nonpareil of Monday
last.
In the first scene, nearly all the
company appeared on horseback in
the grand entree. The horses and ri
ders were newly caprisoned, and the
effect they made wasuelightful. The
tumbling which followed was good.
Joseph Tinkham's riding was worthy
of great praise. The Chinese pastime
tricks of skill, by a lady, were well re
cieved. The, gymnastic and trapez
performance by the farfamed Latnont
Hrothers, was a conspicuous part of
the entertainment. Their acjs were
daring and graceful, and quite astoun
ding to the unpracticed.
Charles Lee Fowler was eminently
successful in his role of clown. He
limited laughter on every hand. The
circus is a good one, and every person
who attended it last night was highly
plea.-ed therewith. All of the perfor
mers were as skillful as veterans, and
as ambitious to excel as novices.

A Card to the PnUc.
In consequence of the neglect of
the Merchants' Union Express Com
pany, and the Union Pacific Express
Company, and their employes, to for
ward from their offices in this city to
their destination my packages of cir
culars announcing the drawingof my
lottery, delivered to said express com
panies to be forwarded, and upon
which the charges were prepaid, and
in consequence of the wrongful de
tention of said packages in the offices
of said companies at Omaha for sev
eral weeks after their delivery thro'
the apparent collusion of said compa
nies, or their employes, with persons
who are interested in retarding my
scheme, it has become necessary for
me to postpone my lottery scheme,
advertised to be drawn on the 15th
inst. It is very mortifying to my
feelings to be compelled to make this
announcement, but when the reason
of the postponement is known, I do
not think the public will blame me.
I have commenced suit against said
express companies for $20,009, the
damages I have sustained. I am now
preparing a circular for general dis
tribution, containing particulars, etc.,
which will be sent to all agents, ticket-holders,
and others Interested, and
which can be obtained by addressing,
