Rev. S. P. Wilson, of the M. E.
Church, preached a powerful and very
effective temperance sermon, Sunday
evening last. We like Mr. Wilson
for the bold and earnest stand he
takes with the temperance people, Ir
respective of their religious views.
Communities would be the better

MeBsers Hawley & Douglas, who
for several years have been leading

They usually deal heavily in barley,

They are a reliable firm, deserving
the confidence and patronage of the

Mr. Corkin, of Sidney, Iowa so
recognized by some one here that
knew him was In the city Monday
last, selling axe-handles. Mr. Corkin
first attraoted attention by bis dili
gent Inquiry for "something to
drink." He was directed to the pub
lic well, but that he treated with dis
dain as "entirely too thin." Mr.
Corkin next oonsulted one of our fellow-citizens
who violates law by sel
ling whisky on the sly, and so suc
ceeded in getting drunk. Tho next
thing heard of Mr. Corkin, he had
wandered off of Main street and ob
truded himself Into tho residence of
Mr. Chatfield. Chat, wasn't in. Had
he been the services of adootor "would
have been more requisite In Mr. Cov
in's case than those of the marshal.
Mr. Corkin was "dry" again. This
time water would do. After being
kindly served with a drink, he refus
ed to leave, and said he would go up
stairs and take a nap. 'Of course this
he was not allowed to do, and Mrs. C.
sent her little girl for Marshal Love.
The next Important step of Mr. Cork
in, while he sojourned in our oity,
was in company with Marshal Love.
The long arm of the marshal was out
stretohed, his strong hand having
gathered up the slack of Mr. Corkin's
wamas collar; he walked rapidly
down the pavement toward the river;
Mr. Corkin justln front of the marsh
al also walked rapidly, and took long
steps, in order to keep the distance
'the length of the marshal's arm
properly adjusted between Mr. Corkin
and his escort. At the river Mr.
Corkin, at the suggestion of the
marshal, at once took boat and ship
ped himself over into Missouri.
Rock Port Journal: N. S. Van
Leuven, of North Star, was in town
on Monday with a petition asking the
county court to grant him a permit to
run a skiff between the Missouri shore
and Brownville. The petition was
numerously signed by our citizens.
Mr. V. will no doubt get a permit, as
a skiff at that point is greatly needed.

Miss Fannie Arnold recently as
sisted In the musical services of the
dedication of St. Pius Church at
Phelps, Mo. The Rock Port Journal
has the following notice of Brown
ville'a talented vocallBt:
During the afternoon we Interview
ed Brownville'a "sweetest Binger,"
MlBseFannlo Arnold, and with the
characteristic Impudence of an inter
viewer got'her to talk of herself and
musical matters generally. Miss Arn
old is the possessor of a magnificent
voice which will by and by rival that
of the gloriouB Kellogg. 8he already
surpasses the Kellogg In this Miss
Arnold's entire soul seems to find ex
pression in her music, and the warm,
rich, impulsive notes thrill one's
nerves to the very centre. Many
professional singers leave the impres
sion that they are cold, indifferent
and heartless. To hear Miss Arnold
is to love her. Her rendering of the
Ave Maria though not calculated to
exhibit well her wonderful artistio
power was nevertheless exceedingly
beautiful. She passed the years of
187S and 1879 in Boston under the in
struction of Madame Ruderstorf.
Here with the "closed mouth" sys
tem her voice acquired strength, vol
ume and compass. Mies Arnold will
return to Boston this fall to continue
her studies. The ambition of her life
1r to appear in the operatic field.
Should she live two or three ypnrs
longer we predlot for her a sweeping
and brilliant success, and another
name will be added to America's list
of glorious women.

do It now as well as they did then ?"

Why every "one who accepts the bi

Ah ! know It would be mysterious to
me, had I not learned long ago that
human beings are strangely contradic
tory even in their religion.
The bible from beginlng to end,
speaks of deep Bleep, dreams, trances
and visions, as the means of coming
into communication with the uneeen
world, and prophets and apostles,
speak as familiarly of spiritual beings
from the unseen world, as concerned
In the affairs of this world ns they do
of persons In the flesh. So I read the
book of inspiration, and I bave made
it a life study, and I love the dear
book, and much of the consolation
and blessedness I receive from its sa
cred pages, Is from this precious doc
trine of the "ministry of angels."
The Bloomington Argus, Is the
name of a new paper at Bloomington,
Nebraska, by J. D. Calhoun and Ben.
F. Sanders. It is exceedingly good
looking in make up, and, of course,
Calhoun being editor, is Democra
tic of tbe-Calhoun stripe. The editor
says :
The question has been frequently
asked whether the democratic poli
tics of the Argus will be of the Con
federate Brigadier sort, to which we
answer, No. There is no such poll
tics. It has never been in existence
except as created by the fertile imag
inations of republican editors. Gone
to meet the bloody shirt.
The Argus, meaus to be understood
that the "sort" of the confederate
Brigadier is not peculiar to that gen
tleman, but is Btandard Democracy.
"There is no Buch politics," as the
Brigadier sort. It's all sound Demo
cracy. The disintegration of the
army; the right of states to secede
at will ; the superiority of a State flag
over the National Stars and Stripes,
and of State government over the
National government; the orippling
of the Judiciary for the protection of

against election frauds; the payment
of rebel claims and the pensioning of
rebel soldiers ; the removal of all pro
tection to tbecitizen in his right tocast
a free ballot, all of which some un
sophisticated people might call the
"Confederate Brigadier sort" of Dem
ocracy, thus leaving the Inference that
there was auother "'sort,' a better
sort. But Caihoun says "No" Dem
ocracy Is all of the same sort North
and South, the same. Cal. Is an hon

On last Thursday evening, some
time between the hours of eight and
eleven o'clock, some one robbed Mrs.
Dick Hatchett of $78 in gold, silver
and paper. The house Is a two story,
on the front, but built up against the
hill, so that in the rear the upper
story Is entered from the ground. It
is supposed that the thel? entered
from the rear, while Mrs. Hatcbett
was In the lower story attending her
restaurant, and took the money,
which was in a pocket book between
some folded bed clothing. Sbe had
been in the habit of keeping her mon
ey in a trunk, or chest, and other
parties about the premises knew
where it was usually keot. Durin?
the day, Thursday, she had occasion
to go to her pocket book, and In her
hurry did not put it baok in Its ac
customed place in the trunk, but ran
the book between the quilts which
lay on the trunk. The thelf seeming
to have a desire to investigate the
trunk, began laying the coverlets off
the top, when In doing so be, or she,
come across the pooketbook. Mrs.
Hatchett has no Idea who robbed her,
b'ut believes it to have heed someone
well acquainted with the place and
Mrs. H's habits regarding the cars of
her money.

Hon. Churoh Howe was in town
last week and called upon several of
our tradesmen, an occurrence which
gives all the elements necessasy for a
trading yarn (after the style of the
Peru ltemizer in the Granger) if there
was any one so despicably small, here
In Nemaha City, as to malioiously
ovolve from his inner consciousness a
false fabrication similar to the Item in
the Granger last week, defaming one

Our Cornet Band was fraterniz

A matoh game of base ball, be

clubs, was commonced on our splend

was stopped by the rain. The players
were dressed In such gorgeous uni
forms that it Beemed to enliven the
game for everybody, just to look at
their magnificent appearance. The
Nemahas were getting away with the
Rosefield boys when It commenced
raining, but of course there is no tel
ling what change might have oc
curred before the end of the game. It
will bo played out on next Saturday,
when all who take pleasure in watch
ing youthful sports, If present, will
be well entertained.
Our citizens say give us the Coun
ty Republican Convention In a stal
wart Republican precinct, where the
atmosphere surrounding thesame will
have an effect to Boothe and harmon
ize all possible discordant elements,
and where a ticket may be nominated
that will sweep all before it, arousing
tho old time 600 Republican majority.
That's the ticket! We have a suitable
ball in which to meet; something
that Sheridan lacks at the present
time, according to Judge Morgan in
last week's Post. Also while the mat
ter of the relocation of the county
seat Is In dispute, it may well be held
at a point where no undue influences
can be ascribed to either of the parties
most interested. If held in Sheridan
or Brownville, It will noc give satis
faction. Nemaha City Is so situated
that even the delegates from the ex
treme western precincts can reach it
in good season by having a good level
road to travel all the way. The dele
gations from Peru and Brownville
can very readily come down on the
train the evening before without
losing any more time than would be
lost, no matter where it be held. The
delegations from St. Deroln, Aspin
wall, Bedford, London, Brownville
and Nemaha could gather here in an
hour, and any of the others could get
here In from two to four hours, owing
to the good level roads, a little down
grade all the way. Of course it would
be a little up grade going home from
the convention, but that is generally
the caae anywhere. This Is clearly
the moat desirable and convenient
place, under the circumstances, for
holding the convention. A Republi

perience to be very, valuable, also
from the experience oL many others.
It is as follows: Take half a pound
of grapevine (wild is the best, put it
in one quart of water, boll iti down to
one gill L take four tablespoonruls of
the liquid of the grapevine, threa tea
spoon fuls of fine table salt, three tea-
spoonfuls of white vitriol ; mix. them
in one pint of soft water, then strain
through filtering paner. For applica
tion, drop one drop in the eyes every
morn lug and evening. If too strong
at first, weaken with a, Uttle soft wa
ter. Take grapes fresh from vines, pick
them from the stems without break
ing; then put them In your jar;- for
seven pounds of grape9 take one quart
vinegar, three pounds sugar, one ta
blespoonful whole cloves and the same
of cinnamon bark; boll all together a
few minutes: then let it cool until
you can bear your finger in It, pour
over your grapes, turn a plate over
them, set them In a cool cellar, and
thpv are done.
Do not cook the grapes, nor heat
the pickle over ; If properly prepared
will keep a year, and be as plump and
fresh as when ploked from the vines.
Do not disturb them far a couple of
weeks, and then when ynu tasteihera
you will be paid for all the pains yon
have taken with them. Theso ar of
