The Nebraska City Press de scribes the new "Marsh House" open ed the other night at Brownville as "the nicest, neatest and nobbiest little -hotel In the state." People continue to move West. ' About twenty immigrant wagons Crossed the Mo. into Brownville last Saturday forenoon. And more or less cross here every day. Saloon license money, nccording to a decision of the Supreme Court, which we recently published, proper ty belongs to the county school fund, and not to the city school fund.

Prairie chickens are so numerous this season that they are getting to be a nuisance to farmers in some locali ties, and the law prohibiting the - shooting of them should be repealed. JSxchangc. And one bit a man out west the other day. Of course the law should be repealed and people permitted to protect themselves. We are indebted to some friend in the Black Hills for sending us pa pers which we look ever with much Interest. We have just received a copy of the Telegraph-Herald, of "Central and Lead Cities''iu which are notices of real estate transfers In . which figure the names of A.S.Stew art and John C. Shurts. Our old friend Joseph Loveless writes us from Laramie City that Mr. Paul Paacoe was married to Miss Matelaud, of Boulder Cit June 1st. He also says Mr. George Marion, formerly a merchant of this city, is building a fine business house in Lar amie. We are glad to hear of the happiness and prosperity of all our .friends. Official statistics show Nemaha county had in 1S77, 17,653 hogs, and in 187S, 35,352. -How is that for iucrease in number, and addition to wealth in one single item about $166,760 in hogs alone.

The people of Lincoln are tak ing steps to eeoure the State Fair grounds for permanent Exposition. A man by the name of Freeman died at Frlendville, Nebraska, on the 3d Inst., from the effects of a snake bite. The Otoe County Fair will be held at Syracuse this fall. A horti cultural fair will be held at Nebraska City. Three hundred Russians, direct from that country, arrived in Lincoln Monday, this week. We presume they come to capture a portion of Ne braska prairie. A Mrs. C. M. Suoke, of Franklin precinct, Richardson county, one day last week, gave birth to triplets two girls aud a boy. The boy lived only a few hours, but the girls are healthy and promising. Penciled on the back of the let ter which appears in this Issue from Tom Majors, we read : "P. S. Dory was appointed P. M. to-day, Frida-. Shake! Toil." All huukydory. Colonel. Here's "Howe" to you. A gentleman of North Branch, Otoe connty, writes to the Syracuse Journal that he knows by experi ments that Nebraska soil is excellent for clover. "I think it beats any I ever saw In any of the Eastern estates," he says. The Eastern coun ties of Nebraska cannot much longer depend for hay upon the "broad prai ries," and wilL have to learn how to cultivate tame grasses. For three da3's the District Court has been engaged in the trial of Hen ri C. Lett vs. the Nebraska Railway Company, a suit to recover from the company for services rendered to the Brownville & Fort Kearney Railroad Company as President of the road for several years. It was the twin case of Atkinson vs. the railroad. Stale Journal. We understand Mr. Lett obtained judgment for $7,500. We congratulate friend Lett. No doubt he was justly entitled to much more but that will help "right smart." State Journal; A stranger vis iting Nebraska at presert mun be at a lo?s for adjectives forcible enough to express his admiration of the coun try and its prospects. Growing and maturing crops of cereals and vegeta bles, the immensity and perfection of which is startling even to an old set tler, greet him on every haud, until he is lost in wonder, and hastens to acknowledge that not one-half has been told of the beautj and unexam pled fertility of the country. Pawnee Jiepublioan; And the next move to Pawnee city. At no distant day a road is bound to be built south west, running through Pawnee City, and we would be just as well pleased to see the C. B. fc Q. build said road as any other company in existence. The route from Brownville running southwest into Texas is what the rail road managers have been ei'ing for some time, and this move of the C. B &, Q,. is no doubt a master stroke of policy to head ofFany competing line. Nebraska City Hetvs; They tell a good story on one of the young gen tlemen who attended the Marsh House opening, at Brownville, as fol lows: He was an entire stranger to the girls present, and the boys were mean and would not introduce him. He finally plucked up courage, and stepping up to a young lady, request ed the pleasure of her company for the next dance. She looked at him in surprise, and informed him that she had not the pleasure of his ac quaintance. "Well," remarked the Nebraska City "blood," "you don't take any more chances than I do." The Kaunas Pilot, published at Kansas City, Kansas, by Cafirey & van de Sande, has made its appear ance upon our table. The Pilot ig nores politics and is devoted to the in terests of the city and locality in which it is published. Just how Maj. Cafirey can eschew politics we can't conceive, but perhaps he is "paired" with the French gentleman at the rear eud of the firm who spells his name with a little v. The Pilot is well edited, of course Cafirey 's name at the mast-head is sufficient guarantee of this. We place the Pilot ou our exchange list, and may it live long and prosper. We often hear the complaint: "The bugs are destroying all my vines." A correspondent of the Chi cago Tribune gives the following rem edy: For five years, I have not lost a cu cumber, or melon vine, or a cabbage phiut. Get a barrel, with a few gal lons of gas tar in it; pour water on the tar; always have it ready when needed, aud when the bugs appear, give them a liberal drink of the tar water from a garden-sprinkler, or oth erwise, and if the rain Hashes it off aud they return, repeat the dose. It will also destroy the Colorado potato beetle, and frightens the old potato bug worse than a threshing with a brush. Five years ago this summer both kinds appeared on m late pota toes, and I watered them with the tar water. The next day nil Colora does that had not been well protected from the sprinkling, were desd, end the others, though their name was t legion, were all gone, and I have nev er seen one of them on the farm since". jam Bware thRt mflny wi Iookupon this with indifference because It Is so cheap ant simple a remedy.

One day I chanced to hear a person loudly extoling one of your fortunate citizens of high position, for bravery. We have brave men among us, but may I ask who are the brave? Are they those whom fortune has favored with orowns of honor, placing them on the highest pinnacle of fame, with little or no exertion of their own? Can they be called brave whose feet have trod an unobstructed path through life, yet occupy elevated po sitions that fate has smilingly thrust them into, regardless of their real merit. There are many such in our land. Many, are called brave because of the good luck that has attended them ; not because they have fought hard battles against sin, and manfully struggled against the vice in their own natures. They fill high positions in life with the naturalness that flowers bloom, or leaves put forth in spring ; because God intended it should be so. not because of their own deeds. No one can truly bo called brave, howev er high they stand, unless they have gained the point of respect and pub lic favor by their own undaunted courage and firm fight ugaiustsin and wrong, and their own inherent pas sions. We have men in our midst, who justly deserve to be called brave .men, who have trampled down the baser part in their natures with firm, unflinching determination, recogniz ing only the good. Men who have sturdily put aside the temptation to gain wealth by means not strictly fair and honest. Men who have dared to hold to an opinion more just than popular. Men who have struggled against the foe, egotism, that makes such cowards of us all. Meu who have not scorned to give an encouraging word to a down trodden, unfortunate fellow-man. Men who have triumphed over deceit and vanquished treachery. Men who have boldly and staunchly walked rough-shod over the lurking demon, intemperance, saying: "die, foul de stroyer of all peace .and happiness, I will be free! No more shall the gall ing chains of intemperance bind me. No more the seductive power of the wine cup, enthrall. Home, happiness and peace have been sacrificed by thine accursed power, but now thy reign is done. I will be victor! I will be a man again !" Such is true heroism. And the heros we have among us, are already reaping a re ward for their steadfastness aud brav ery. How great will be their reward in heaven, for God will make a shin ing light of thoe who have overcome the evils He placed us here to battle against. F.

JMiior; The Lutheran Evan gelical Missionary Convention, held on Wednesday and Thursday, May 29th and SOth, was very well attended by all our intelligent German friends. Rev. Dierks delivered on Wednes day the first sermon in German, and was followed by Rev. Borchard, Mis sionary from Japan. In the afternoon a convention was held and Rev. Fwicker, from Phelps, Mo., read his very elaborate essay on baptism, which proved his deep theo logical studies. Very interesting dis cussions followed in regard to the promotion among the English aud German inhabitants of this State. Thursday the 30th at 10 o'clock A. M., the assembled congregation was so numerous that we had to retreat to the grove near the stone church. Rev. Fwicker preached the first ser monI John S, 16 In a very elo quent manner. Rev Borchard followed, describing his missionary work In Japan, resort ing, for better explanations to an im promptu drawn map on the black board. Mr. Borchard is an able ora tor and every one was favorably Im pressed by his discourse, which not only pleased the ears but also elevated the minds and hearts of the hearers. Mr. Borchard then addressed the as sembly in a few well chosen words in Euglish and made a good impression upon the few American lisfeueKpres ent. Rev. Pechan had to preach a funer al sermon at Nebraska City could not, therefore, be present. Rev. Julius Wolff", from Hooper county, Neb., delivered the closing sermon about the inner mission x Jacobs, 16, 16 the mission of the heart. For a long period Rev. Wolff has labored on the frdutier of Minnesota, and he gave us a true picture of the standing of the Lutheran Church, as it was, now is, and as it ought to be. Every one who attended these very iuteresting meeting was highly pleas ed, and all hope to hear the gentle men again. God tuny bless them in their endeavors to promote true Chris tianity. N. N. LONDON" ITEMS. We said in an item last week that there would be Quarterly meeting at the Methodist church last Sunday. Wo were mistaken it will be next Suuday. June is here, and the roses about gone. What is Juue without the roses ? Much sickness among the chick ens. Everybody has a "sure remedy," but all fail to cure. Instinct the faculty or capacity of the spirit to take coguizuuee of facts from the fountain of truth, with out the circuitous road' of reasoning is the only way of gaining positive knowledge. This is what was" said iu "Knowledgeaud Belief," laat week, in the Advertiskk. Now read intu ition instead of iiwtinclthnt is what we said. But we never scold the Ed itor, printer nor anybody but our selves, for sucii mistakes we know what is themattor. Not much news, this week. With this wi.-e saying from the sacred record we will close "our remarks," "Speak evil of no man." Two doses of Dr. Marshall's Lung Syrup completely cured my child of a severe case of croup, I have used a great many different cough medicines, but have never found any so efficient as Dr. Marshall's.
