Mr. Wesley Dundas informs us by card, thit Mr. Finch has promised to visit Sheridan while in this part of -the country and deliver at least one lecture. Senator Howe was reelected Mas ter of the State Grange last week. In his annual speech, which was short and pertinent, he admits the order to be in a sadly dilapidated condition, but hoped it would improve. The Falls City Journal speaks thus of one of Brownville'a most ac complished young ladies : The music department of our High School is now in full operation, under the management of Miss Cora Gates, one of the most accomplished music ians and sweetestsingers in the State. J. S. Minick will soon remove his stock of goods and business head quarters from Aspinwall to Nemaha City. He has rented the store house now occupied by J. B. Hoover.

Bed Cloud Argus. Mrs. Wilcox, who is a sister to Mrs. W. S. Clark and Mrsv J. P. Hoover, arrived at Nemaha City Tuesday evening, of last week, and is enjoying herself with her friends and relatives. Our esteemed old friend, Thomas Burriss, of Glen Rock, called last Sat urday and renewed his subscription. Mr. Burriss Is our agent for that part of the county, and is authorized to re ceive subscription money and receipt for the same. Any arrangement, re garding subscriptions, made with him will be approved by the pupliahers of The Advertiser. Our esteemed Democratic friend, Jack Riohardson, as for more than twenty yeas, made his annual visit and paid bis subscriptions for The Advertiser. He takes one himself and sends two to friends, and has our thanks, for, although not appreciat ing our politics, clear through, he does appreciate the many other good qual ities of tho old paper. Our whilom old attache of The Advertiser, Ed. Gibson, now of Kirksville, Mo., spent two or three days in the city last week, shaking hands, smokiug cigars, etc, with his old friends. All the boys were de lighted to see him. It is probable that he will return to this city to make it his permanent residence. If he eo conolndes, he will be cordially welcomed bjT a host of friends. 3unday T. L. Sohlck, Esq., and wife and child were taking a sleigh ride behind the "family horse," when, in making a turn the sleigh was upset, the barrister and his fami ly were spilled out. None were hurt more than slight bruises, we believe. The horse got away, and after making a desperate effort to run, gave it np, and was caught, even thesleigh being' none the worse for the "runaway." While Ted Huddart was driving his nice mare last Saturday to a sleigh, ooming down Main street, she sud denly became frightened and ran away, throwing Ted out, taking a cir cle down toward the river, breaking the sleigh Into kindllngwood. Ted was hurt, but not very badly. The mare became scared, we believe, at be ing surrounded by numerous boys and their sleds attached to the sleigh. On Tuesday night when Josh Rogers was closing his livery stable for the night, fastening the door on the outside, a shot was fired at him from a few rods up the sidewalk west of him. He thinks the shot was in tended for him becausit came so near hitting him, he hearing the ball hiss apparently within a few inches of his head. He immediately hastened in the direction from whence the shot came, but saw no one, and whether an attempt was made to assassinate or the shot was fired accidentally by some one, as yet remains a mystery. Finch the lecturer, failed to come to time Tuesday night as per appoint ment. This was an aggravating disap pointment to many who were anx iously expecting him, but moat of those who knew of the present fight now going on atLincolu over the pro hibition question, acquiesced to the disappointment with commendable good nature, and pay the hall rent without using it with as good grace as possible. Mr. Skinner, president of the State Temperance societies telegraphed that it was impossible for Finch to visitBrownvillethis week, on account of the importance of the work at Lin coln, of which Mr. Finch is the lead er, but that next week Finch would be here. Tuesday afternoon at a meeting hastily convened, of prominent tem perance men, the subject of the" disap pointment and the absolute necessity of Finch's remaining at the capital at this time, was considered, and action taken excusing him. Rev. Wilson, who stated his intention of visiting Lincoln this week, was instructed to see Mr. Finch and obtain another def inite promise from him for lectures in Brownville at as early a date as possi ble. We will now believe in Finch lect uring here only when we see him in town, but will put-littlo confidence In promises hereafter. EPITHETICAL.

AToung man ofPeru, by the name of Hifgins, some time ago was down to tbi. city, and while taking a drink with orae of the boys, told them that Frank Wilson, who took away Josh Rogen' horse some time ago and ha3 not bein heard from since, had purch ased a an of mules of him and paid for then, and that he still had the mules in his possession. Rogers hear ing of this avownl, "went for" the youngman, when he denied having sold hs mules or saying that he had ; but being brought face to face with partiis who heard him say he bad sold iis mules to Wilson, he "owned up," and told Rogers be would pay him at the horse which Wilson took away. On Monday this week Sheriff Black, with his efficient deputy, Lan- non, called on Mr. Higgins in the in terest of Rogers, and received from him S75 in payment for the horse. This was not the full value of the horse, but Josh did not want to be hard on him. When be paid the money he declared to the Sheriff that he did not sell the mules to Wilson and never received a cent for them, and that he elmply paid for the horse to save his mules and get out of a dif ficulty he had Inadvertently got into by "sho'oticg off" his mouth boast Ingly whili drunk. That Higgins tells different stories about that mat ter and other things connected with the dlsippearance of Wilson, is cer tain, therefore what the real facts are is left only for surmise speculation. The saddle and bridle taken by Wil son with the horse were found in Higgins' possession and a photograph picture of Wilson was found in his pocket. He accounts for the saddle being found with him by saying he traded saddle with Wilson ; and the bridle, he says Wilson left with him, having purchased a new one. These stories may be like the one about the mnles, true or false. They look thin io us and we decline to take Mr. Hig gifls'B word. There 3 now s. stigma and dark suspicion resting on young Higgins that will rest there unless facta are brought to light regarding! the whereabouts of Wilson that will exonerate him. Opinions are freely expressed that Wilson never ot fur ther than Peru, that he and the spot ted horse are now probably under tbe ice of the Missouri, that Wilson had a large sum of money about him, that he gambled, etc Mr. Higgins has told, as a "rumor," avowing no knowledge himself about it, that Wilson got into a game, and that he was plucked of a thousand or so; and he has mentioned some names. From the fact that he has named parties as playing with Wilson who are not gamblers and never play, this story deserves only to be regarded as the thoughtless lie of one endeavoring to screen himself, and ready to say or do anything to avoid present danger. Regarding the gambling of Wilson we have taken some pains to enquire. Had he been a gambler he could very easily bad a game in this city, but notwithstanding he was here for some months, we are well satisfied he nev er played a game of poker In Brown ville; and this fact leads us to the reasonable conclusion that Frank Wilson was not a poker player, and that all the surmises of poker and murder are Idle bosh. Young Hig gins should bestir himself for self vindication, and meantime put a pad lock upon his irresponsible mouth, or he mayyethaveto encounter troubles far more serious than he has yet had. Or eat reductions in prie es at McPherson's for sixty days. Some people think that Senator Howe's abandonment of the Green backers and Democrats who elected him will be his political ruin in this county. This would be so with any man but Mr. Howe, but if one will take a casual glance back over his po litical inconsistencies, and betrayals, they will see that he has done several equally as "suicidal" things, and still lived. In the campaign of 1874 he promised Republicans that if elected he would support some Republican for TJ. S. Senator, and this promise no doubt materially aided his election. But he went back on that promise and voted for Patrick, a Bourbon, all the time. In the campaign of 1S76 his treason was not remembered against him, or if it was, by a few Republi cans, he gained more than he lost, from the Democrats, who loved that kind of treason, and be was again elected. And in the campaign of 1876 be promised to defeat that servant of the great monopoly, forTJ. S. Senator. But again be violated his solemn pledges to tbe people, and his votes and utmost efforts were used in favor of P. W. Hitchcock. But again, in 1S78 he was forgiven, and in some way or other received nearly his usual majority. Now again he betrayB his followers deserts them and goes over into ranks of their enemy. But this little episode in Mr. Howe's exceed ingly checkered political life, will be accounted as naught, when he choos es to run again. His majority will be increased instead of diminished. Some of his Democratic adherents will "let up on him." bnt his acquisi tions from Republicans who have hitherto voted against him will make up much more than his losses will be. Mr. Howe's boast that his joining the Republican party will bring back the party to figures of former years, al though, derided, is not we believe, a vain boast. We have been surprised within the past two weeks at hearing old Independents, who used to vote the Republican ticket, but who have not voted it for some years, boldly in dorsing Mr. Howe's recent political aotion at Lincoln; and to-aay all, with few exceptions, old Republicans who followed Howe out of tbe party are ready to follow him back again. As for ub, a worker In the interest of the Republican party, ever anxious to hail with welcomes recruits to our ronka, and without indorsing Mr. Howe's past record, and with the full and firm conviction that his entrance into the Republican party is for polit ical strength and partisan ends, just as it was when he left it, we enjoy his coming back very much indeed, for in his return the Republican party of this county is strengthened, and a successful disorganizing element sub dued. And we would rather have Mr. Howe for us than against us. Farmers, it will be a good time to build in the Spring as hardware is going to be sold dirt cheap by Stevenson &, Cross.

Savage, former ly of Sheridan, ha3 been elected Grand Worthy Secretary, and our cousin, Mrs. Jennie Mathews, elected Grand Worthy Lecturer.
