WhAt'has Posey got against that nice little city, any way? ..-Brownville will give a splendid NatLeiml'Flag to the town or precinot presenting tho largest delegation on the Fourth. Now whoop it up. ,s4-A number of the leading citizens dfNemaha City were in Brownville Monday, "laying in things" and get ting ready for their celebration. Tecu mseh Chief lain: We have received several invitations this week to attend tho celebration of the 4th at Brownville. The citizens of that place are preparing for a grand time. The largest stock aud handsom est variety of cook stoves and ranges to be found in Nemaha County, with all tho latest improvements, consist ing of the different patterns of the Early Breakfast, Charter Oak and several other varieties, are now offer ed at lower prices than auy stove dealer dare sell, with a wagon load of trimmings, by Stevenson & Cro.3. Within the past week we have seen corn growing in the fields from two to five feet in height; aud we notice a patch of com in a neighbor's garden over pix feet in height aud does not yet show tassel or silk. Corn could not bo more promising. Let our Eastern friends, digging around amongst stumps and stones take no tice of the above. Bob. Morrison's Billiard Hall is the most pleasant pleasure resort in the city. Ho has recently dressed his threo billiard tables in new cloths, all the appointments of the place are neat and clean, and Bob knows just how to make a lemonade, and sets up other cooling healthy drinks, but touches not, handles not, tastes not, any intoxicating liquors, and allows nothing of the kind about his premis es. Temperance people who indulge in innocent billiards and temperance drinks, or a good cigar, should patron ize Robert. Mr. Swan, the man who herds our city cattle so well, requests us to say that he aud his "cow boys'' desiring to celebrate the Fourth of July as oth er people do, aud enjoy a privilege which should cheerfully be accorded to everybody, he will not take out his herd ou that day, and hopes all his patrons will prepare to keep their cows up on that day aud without at tributing blame to him. Mr. Swan is a good herder, takes first rate care of the cattle iu his chaige, and with this timely notice, wo doubt not that all his patrons .will be ready to care for their cows this one day and let Mr. Swan and his boys freely en joy the great National Holiday.

Editor Nebr.iska Advertiser, The railroad train running between this place and Lincoln, It Is said, ac tually run down, nud run over a cow last week, eomewhere between Ne braska City and Lincoln ! The train between Brownville and Nebraska City will never do that. If It would only once accomplish' such a feat, the peoplo in this neck of woods would feel greatly encouraged with prospeots of increased speed. One can go from Brownville to St. Louis in twenty four hours, and return in the! same time. To go from BrowuvillG to Lincoln sixty miles by thodlrect route continued rail It now requires forty-eight hours to go and the same to return ninety-six hours to make the round trip. "Verily the world moves'" if railroads do not. This is over the Nebraska Railway. Snooks. Our correspondent was certainly not posted ou tlie cause of the death of the cow. Our readers must not for a moment imagine that a train on the Nebraska Railway could catch a well cow on a keen ruu. That was aalck cow asleep on the track. Parasols and fans at Bolen's. The Brownville Advertiser has been renovotod and transformed into a temperance paper. Falls City .Journal. Tho Journal, if it has plenty of time, tcftget the news. The Adver iiser, and its editor, ore now precise ly what they have been for the last past six years theoretically and prac tically temperance While we are not devoted to the temperance work as much as we are to local interests and the Republican party, yet what we have to say on the subject of tem perance will be in favor of tho cause. Possibly thebtrnaZ man is unable to understand how an editor can be true to his party hand local interests, and at the same time be a sturdy temper ance man, but we assure him suoh a thing is not only possible but very agreeable and consistent with good journalism. An interesting feature connected with the 4th of July celebration at Brownville will be the Snare Drum mers of the Loudon and Brownville Marfial Bands. J. W. Brush Is one of the oldest Drummers in the United States, and wo venture that Joe. Williams is the youngest, being four years old.

Furnas will undoubtedly be the nominee of the Republicans of Nemaha county for county treasurer tills fall. Robt. V. Furnas has help ed, perhaps more than any other man, to build up the wealthy county of Ne maha, is a capable, honest, genial gentleman, and will be elected with out much opposition if honored with tho nomination. We hope he may be.
