PRESBYTERIAN FESTIVAL.
The Strawberry Festival, held in
McPherson's Hall on Thursday eve
ning of last week, was a grand success
both as an enjoyable occasion and fi
nancially. The Hall was tastily deo
orated with boughs, flowers and pic
tures, and when filled with a gaily at
tired company, the scene, mellowed
by the soft lamp-light, was "fair to
look upon."' The ice cream, straw
berries and other delicacies were un
exceptionable. The "post office" was
an interesting feature. The letters
were all written by Mr. A,nonymoua,
who must be a man of versatile geni
us, judging from, the ease with which
he "pimpled, out in poetry," talked
sentiment, and revelled in nonsense.
The attendance was good and patron
age liberal,, as. may be inferred from
the receipts, which net the nice little
sum of $173.25. The proceeds will be
immediately expended for internal
improvements in the church.

We Want Enterprise not Capital.
Independence is a glorious word,
but truly enjoyed by but few individ
uals or communities. That section
whieh looks to another for articles of
necessity which its citizens are capa
ble of producing, is indolently de
pendent, aud has no right to complain
if unjustly used by its more enter
prising neighbor. We are led. to these
reflections by the manner in, which,
tho villnge- some twenty-five miles
above this city treated us in the late
railroad, election, au4 the fact that on
the shelves o many of our merchants
Nebraska City soap is ofTered for sale.
Tbe conclusion is this: We have cap
ital in our midst which will aid the
establishment of manufactures, have
we not enterprise to start it? Or, do
our citizens like to be dependent, to
be snubbed, even when a good pay-
iug business invites our self respect
to co;ne to the rescue. Come! Dr

Sir: Enclosed find tribute of re

There are few such men.

PiC-Nic. We were pl.eased on last
Saturday afternoon to be among a
small party of young people who held
apic-nicin the grove at the Wesl
End. A sumptuous repast was
spread on the green., and duly dis
patched, after which the party ad
journed to the sombre shades of Mr.
Handjey's door yard. Every one
seemed to have a general license for
rollicking and determined to use it.
Such occasions counteract what of
prudish ness there is in our natures,
and, open, up i.n our hearts the well
springs of universal good will.

Tlie Liquor License Tux.
The action of the City Council in Increas
ing t lie license tax for the-sale of Intoxica
ting liquors, is being so'vejely criticised. lt
is claimed to be exhorbitant; but Jf the
rl lit to impose the tax for revenue purposes
exists, it Is certainly in Its natureunllmited.
The Councilmen also claim that the ordi
nance shall. In accordance with its terms, go
into elTect immediately, while the Mayor
would postpone' its operation until it has
been published the requisite length of. time.
The statute would seem to favor plaiqly the
latter view. But these are questions we
must leave to the lawyers and courts to de
cide.
William Sanger, M. D., a distin-
guisnea puyeician and- well known
practitioner qf the profession of medi
cine in New York, died at his resi
dence in this city yesterday, Sth inst.
Dr. Sanger was born Auirnst 18, 1S19,
at Canterbury, Conn. He removed
to Wheeling, Va., in 1S36, and com
menced the study of medicine in 1842
with John Frissell, M. D., one of the
most skillful physicians and-surgeons
west of the Alleghanies. He came to
New York in" 1844- to attend lectures
at the College of Physicians and Sur
geons, from which institution he
graduated- with credit in 1S47. He
was appointed assistant at Bellevue
Hospital, and from there was sent as
tbe first Resident Physician to Black
well's Island. The doctor subsequent
ly served at "Quarantine, where he
nearly lost his life with ship fever,
after which, to recruit his health, he
went as Burgeon of the steamship
Washington; crossed the Atlantic.
several times, and embraced various
opportunities to visit London and-
Pans and the hospitals in those qities.
no commenced private practice in
Honesdale, Pa., 1849. and married in
the sumo yenr Lucy M., eldest daugh
ter of Samuel Atkiuson, a well known
lawyer of Columbus, Ohio. In 1S43,
during a visit to New York, ho was
re-appointed Resident Physician to
Blackwell'slsland, which responsible
office he filled during a term of seven
years with remarkable administrative
ability. It was while there the citv
authorities requested him to investi
gate thoroughly and report fully the
facts relating tothegreaf'Social Evil"
which came so prominently under his
professional cognizance. Two years
of assiduous efforts in that direction
resulted in the publication of his fa
mous book, entitled "The History of
Prostitution." In December, I860, he
resigned the office of Resident Physi
cian on Blackwell's Island, and de
voted himself to the private practice
of his profession, until the last six
months, when a painful illues-, which
resulted in his death, commenced.
Modest and, unobtrusive almost to a
fault, Dr. Sanger never made himself
conspicuous in his profession, but as a
practitioner was skillful and consci
entious. The reputation which he
trained was founded on real merit.
He was an honest man and a patriot
ic citizen. A memb r of the Tam
many Society for many years, ho al
ways took a lively interest in politics.
Concerning all the great issues of tho
day, lie was firm in his convictions
and plain spoken in the utterance of
them. His many friends have lost

genial and intelligent companion

How is it that notwithstanding the
hard times and scarcity of money at
the present time, that the old estab
lished grocery florin, of Swan & Broth
er are continuing to receive and tell
as many goods as ever? The reason
3 plain. They sell the best quality
of goods at the lowest living prices,
and as they buy and sell for cash,
they are enabled to defy competition.
Strangers in the city will find the
Union Hotel first-class in every par
ticular. The rooms, beds, tables, and
in fact everything that tends to the
comfort of the traveler, are carefully
looked to by George and his estima
ble lady, assisted by a first-class corps
of artistes in the dining room and
kitchen. Try the Union; once, and
we are sure you will not go away dIaT
satisfied, but "will stop at no othef
House while in the city.

THE DEMOCRATS SOLILOQUY.
To be, or not to he a "Liberal," that Is the
question;
Whether 'tis nobler In the mind to snQer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortcne.
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles.
And, by opposing, end them? To "bolt"
to -'depart,"
Nomore;-and,by "deptr-iingf.. to sav wo
end
The heart. ache, and the thon.antl naturni
shocks
That patty ts heir to, 'tis a consnm.f Ion
Devoutly to be v.-lshed. To "bolt," to ..jg.
part;"
T,o "depart!" perchance. to.fal; ay, there'&l
the rub;
For In that "departure" what Ills. may come.
When we have shuffled off, this Democratic
coil,
Must glvo us pause. There's tho respect.
That, makes calamity of so long life;
For who wpuld bear the whips and scorns of
tjaie,
The oppressor's wrong, tho Republican's
contumely,
The pangs of deplsed love, tho long delay,
The Insolenre of office, and the spurns.
That patient merit of the unworthy takes,
Wlien he hlm.relf might his quietus mako
With a bare ballot? Who would tho burd
en bear.
To grunt and sweat under a weary life ;
But that the dread of something after Dem
ocratic death
Tho undiscovered sta.te from whose bourn
No traveler may return, nuzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills wc have,
Than fly to others we know not of?
Thus does conscience make cowards of us all;
And thus the nativo hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought.
And enterprizes of great pith and moment,
With this regard, their currents turn awry.
And lose tho' name of action.
