That's business, and we wish the new proprietor suc cess. We have heard a few persons speuk contemptuously of the tem nnriince organization in this place. Such remarks arc made without duel consideration we think ; for we sub niit that it has done good to a number ; ! of gentleman of tho city who , have j joined it. They have ceased to drink j whisky and to indulge in even peri- lodical drunks, and by so doing are, and should be. more respecteJ by I their friends. If you do not desire 10 unite with a temperance society do innic ini c i....r just as you wish nobody would or enuld force you to the saving measure unless the ligut 01 youruu icusuu, or the moial force of the tears and sorrows of your family might impel you to be just to them and to youself; but whatever .you uo, ior the sake of the unfortunate, uo not attempt to turn their feet'from the paths of sobriety. In the year 1S70 the people of this city voted $00,000 in bond's to aid the Quincy and Missouri River Railroad company to construct said road from the east bank of the Missouri river eastward to a connection with the K. C. St. Joe & C. B. road at Phelps. Of this $00,003, nineteen thousand five hundred have been delivered and the interest has to bo paid, and is paid an nually. To this our citizens would not object had that company gone on and finished the road to Phelps, as it a-reed to; but thev now see they were cheated out of $19,300 in bonds upon which they are compelled to pay interest, for the work stopped after the bonds had passed out of their hands, and the prospects of ever getting the benefit of that for which they pay so dearly is in no wise flattering. At least this is the general belief of the people, and' their temper towards those gentlemen of Quincy who came with smooth speech and made seduc tive promises only to violate them, is far from amiable. But we cannot see any way of escape from the oppression of the taxes' ami of paying extrava gantly for something we never receive any benefit of, unless they who re ceived the bonds may sometime con clude to finish the short piece of road through selfish motives if not through honest ones. . . The lesson taught our city by pay ing for a railroad before it is made has been expensivonnd weliope it has salutary.

In our issue of April 30th we published a communication by G. A. Brown, of Peru, headed "Country Merchants and Farmers." Mr. B. stirred up a nest of hornets in the shape of grangers, by his pungent ar ticle. We have received threearticles within the last few days in answer to Mr. B.

Mr. Henry Cecil, who during the winter sojourned ajt Tippecanoe, Ohio, his former home, arrived in this city one day last week. Rabe Elliott was in town last Saturday wtth his race mare. He has tile fastest three-year-old in this country, so he says. Mr. B. F. Ferguson, of Hum boldt, called on us on Wednesday. He was on his way to Omaha to at tend the U. S. District Court." Dr. Stewart, Superintedent of of the Insane Asylum, Lincoln, visit ed his friends in this city last Satur day, aud remained over Sunday. Dr. Holladay. who has been spending a few days at St. Joe, Wes ton and Kausas City, informs us that times are as dull in those cities, as here. Mrs. J. T.

Mr. Henry M. Jones of this county, now of the U. S. Grand Jury, Omaha, came down last Thursday on business for the U. S.

Rich, who cpent the winter in thisoity loft for Republi can City last week. We believe he intends to remove his. family to that place at an early day.' We hope the pure atmosphere of the western prai ries will so effect the health of our old friend as to evanish that horrible rheumatism from bim forever. A. P. Cogswell returned from Quincy, Illinois, this week, where he had been attending a meeting of the stockholders of the Quincy & Mo. River rail road. What news he brought back we do not know. He has not honored us with a call. He may have forgotten that there are newspapers In town and that the peo ple are Interested in railroad news. WE TAKE A RIDE. Xeraaha City Aspirnvall-HUlsdale St. Deroin. Last Thursday we concluded to ride out and see the beauties of nature, and visit some of our friends. We pro cured one of Morrpyv & Sperry's com- .w..w.0 iuiuuuih ana went delow, visiting Nemaha City, Aspinwall and St. Deroin. There appeared to be very little business 'doing in any of the towns, owing to the busy season of the year. When there is any busi ness any where these towns get their share all on the river and backed by agricultural regions unexcelled. At Nemaha City we found Birl Hoover engaged in what he seems to be al ways doing men and teams hard at work removing grain from his ware house down to the river to be iu readi ness for the next boat down. Birl buys immense quantities of wheat and corn. At Aspinwall we remained over night uud was hospitably entertained at the house of Dr. Crim. We met many old acquaintances'and spent an agreeable evening. We called at the business houses of Capt. Minick, Mr. Weiseurider and Mr. Tidrow, The mammoth stocks of Minick and Weis eurider indicate that many goods are sold in Aspinwall. We had the pleas ure of an agreeable chat with Mr. G. G. Start, He informed us that he would be engaged during the season iu purchasing grain at that point for Birl Hoover. Wo parsed through Hillsdale with out stopping, but just below we dis covered the hard-fisted Hon. G. R. Shook in a field by the roadside planting corn, and we interrupted his work for about ten minutes in a pleas ant chat about things in general. George is one of our ipnst intelligen t and substantial citizens, and the trusts reposed in him from time to time by the people have never been betrayed by him. At St. Deroin we spent several hours very agreeably with Judge Rit ter, generally thought to be one of the best Commissi! ners that ever Nema ha county ever had. Like the other places, here we found business rather dull, but Ritter has the goods to sup ply the people, and his long establish ed business and his well established reputation a3 a business man and a clever and accomodating gentle inn, usvira to him the big end of the business of that town. He has a general assortment and variety of all kinds and sorts of goods which a country merchant must keep to sup ply the needs of the peopiew His warehouse is filled, besides his store room, aud then in another building he keepsa general assortment of ag ricultural implements. .He exhibit ed to us the photograph of a grange plow and seeder which there is no doubt excellsany machine of the kind ever invented for the use intended. We also called at tiie store of W. T. Durret who has a good looking store room and a large stock of gooos. Mr. Durrelt was not in, anil we had not the pleasure of meeting him, but his accomodating clerk was agreeable, and subscribed for his "county pa per." At noon we took dinner at the table of Dr. Rice or rather Mrs. Rice as the Dr. was not at homo, he being at Omaha on the jury and it was an excellent dinner. We cannot repress a compliment to that good old lady, for we do believe she can tret un the best "snuare meal" we ever attacked. Persons going. to Deroin will have no oeeasion to go away hungry if they will call on Dr. Rice. After smoking several scgars at Judge Ritters expense, we started on our return. The weather being de lightful, the time of year cheering the trees and shrubbery just dressing in their ornaments of green leaves and flowers, our trip was an exceedingly pleasant one, and we felt better for having indulged in it.

When the coat of ordering registering a letter ex change on draft postal money order, &c, is ndded, as well as the freight and tho time of two men going to Brownvilleafter them aud spending a day, worth $4.00, including team hire, we wonder how much better they do in ordering goods from St. Jo than they would to buy at home. Mr. Sage has sold his fat cattle to a dealer from NeUraska City and has to deliver them there. It seems that the effort made to break up all middle men has succeeded so far as to drive the last cattle and hog buyer out of the county, now farmers have the privilege of driving stock to Nebraska City aud taking a less price than would otherwise have been paid at home. When they succeed in driving all merchants and middlemen away and push Browuville into the river as we have heard many express a wish to do, everything will be lovely, wont it?
