Rook Port Journal: Gilbert and Sullivan's new comic npera, Tlie Sor cerer will be presented at Marti Opera House, Brownville, Thursday evening, Jan. 22, conducted by Mis Fanule Arnold, assisted by the best musical talent of that place. Those who "have fceen the play say it Js splendid. The Sorcerer notwithstand ing it is a most intricate aud complex piece of operatic work under the ad mirable disciplining and energetic Instructions of Miss Arnold, the re markable and diversified talents of her large company have been trained to follow the labyrinthine thread of the play and bring from chaotic obscurity gems of harmonic beauty. Persons of operatio taste, upon witnessing The Sorcerer, will at once understand aud appreciate the complicated nature of this musical drama; and us well, the indomitable will and brilliant talents that brought it to the perfection of presentation to the public in the enterprising little city of Brownville. The Sorcerer will be Bplehdidly rendered at the Opera House this Thursday evening, and we doubt'nnt will be accorded the meed of praise above all that have preceded It here In the world of the artiste. We were gratified to meet ln our city last week, our old friend and fellow-citizen. George W, Nealey, now of Falls City. George recently re turned from the mines of Colorado, where he spent last summer, and is arranging hie affairs in Nebraska so as to remove hie famih to Colorado soon. He bus been a successful miner and prospector, and owns and has in terest In several silver mines of un doubted immense wealth. These mines he did not purchase, but are the result of his own Indefatigable ex ertions and good luck in prospecting. He exhibited to us ten different spec imens of ore, taken from as may dif ferent mines; which assay from 50 to over 200 ounces of silver to the ton. George has undoubtedly "turned hiB jack," and no man Is more deserving of a bonanza than he. He left Mon day this week on a business trip to St. Louis, and will spend a day or two here on his retnrn, which will be In about ten days. . BUSINESS BREVITIES. Celeste 26th Innt.

Editor Xebraska Advertiser. . For some months past the temper ance people of this city have been greatly imposed upou by certain pro fefesed temperance men, who. seem ingly to a person of the temperance persuasion, are at heart what they outwardly profess to be; but, if Che truth be known, they are but "wolves in sheep's clothing." Not long since we heard a "profess ed'' temperance man say that "the temperance work in .Brownville waB a failure." Well, It does look that way to a certain extent ; for, before the temperance element gained con trol of our city affairs, whisky and beer were sold by the glass, mostly. But since, they are sold by the gallon, keg and barrel. I am told that whis ky is imported from the Missouri side of the river by the barrel ("yrup) aud by the ca.U (oyster-). Well, consid ering the political status of that State I believe this to be true, and that beer is imported from Hamburg and Ne braska City, and manufactured at home. The "West End" brewery- man it is said, sells so much of it that he can hardlv euoolv the demand for home consumption, let alone foreign, And then, acain, he can afford to "give it away" by the glass to "small bovs" who go to that institution day aft'er day. In a certain cellar in this city. I am told, there is also a "gambl inE hell " , ' where many of Browuville , . . . , , -, men congregate to indulge in asocial ... . . ,,, m game of "one cent ante," "euchre," ... . ... .. , ,, ,. or "b h poker" as it is called, the . J - ,. , ,, . . .1 t n ,.j n 1 ulace men go through the "dark al- lies." Of course thej' do not wih to be seen. That is perfectly natural its "human nature" to cover up their lawless deeds. I am told of un otber gambling hell In a directly op posite part of the city where they in- dulge in the "firewater" and eat a man uo.s agricultural maenmery. great manv cans of "oove oysters" ! favnred u9 wi,n a call, on Tuesday, and "canned corn" to kill the burn ; j ond we l,ml n Ver-V pleasant chat about and also a store where they frequent- I n,d limes and esppcially the Territo ly receive boxes marked "queens- j rIal Legislature of 1SG3 4, of which we ware;" but it is surprising how peo-!llolh were members. pie maKe their queenBware now-a- j days it leaked, leaving the srent be hind. But I suppose we should not) say anything about the sale of alco-j hoi, as the druggists say that its use is "one of the necessary evils." If! that is the reason why it is sold, we j believe the work of tlie temperance organizations and the members there of, is, and should be, to destroy the necefcsitv. We will not say anything about the nqUOT 60i,i hy th druggists in this correspondence; but this is the question I wish here to ask: Can't a manufacturer be prevented by law from dealing out liquor to minors "without money anil without pric1?" Our city officials, it seems to me, should be more vigilant in rooting out this "necessary evil." We can point nut men in thia town, and women as well, who say it is the privilege of their boyn to go to the brewery and take their glass of beer. Are not the manufacturers of malt liquors under as striot laws as the cigar manufacturers? The latter must account for every pound and ounce of tobacco hought or sold, and why should not the brbwer be equally aeoouutable for every pint or gallon of beer made and sold? Are not both of them "necessary evils?" Both are injurious, or so it is claimed. Both poison the body. Both starve their victims. For a man when once ad dicted to the use of tobacco, will starve himself aud take the money which should buy bread and spend for tobacco, or otherwise will "go beg ging" of his neighbor. Isn't that bo ? Aud a man will do without bread rather than beer, when his wife and family are starving at home. And in fact more such instances occur from the habit of drinking beer than the use of tobacco. And why should not beer manufacturing be placed under as strict lawn ns the tobacco manufac turer? Because it is a necessary evil. Location Changed. I have removed my stock of Agri cultural Implements to Carson's old bank, where I will go it alone with the largest stock of the best goods in my line ever seen in Brownville. I offer many thanks to my many friends for their liberal patronage in the past and by fair dealing I hope for a oontiauance of their trade. Robert Teare.

Stull, county judge, submitted his report, showing S112.00 fees collected during the quar ter ending Jan. 1. 18S0. and for the year ending at the same time, $421.43; which report was received, accepted aud placed on file. In the matter of the location of a county road on section line between sections 7 and 18. in town 4. range 14 east, and sections 12 and 13, in town 4. range. 13 east, tlie board ordered that (he said section line be a puhlic road aud that the same be opened and worked as such.

Tlie board, therefore, made the levy under the law then in force. The board, there fore, made the issue under the provis ions of the law then in force, when the levy was made, that the risk of incurring en additional indebtedness to the county miglft be saved, and money to the county be saved by using the whole levy. In the matter of recommendations to supervisors. The board of super visors would respectfully recommend to the several supervi-ors of the sev eral road districts in the county to take into consideration tlie propriety of not increasing an expense on their respective road districts by purchas ing material, tools, etc., to be used in their several districts unless they have the money to purchase with, as there is no road funds on hand and will not be for months to come. Un der the present Hw under which the levy for road tax for 1SS0 will have to be made, the board cannot levy for road purposes but three mills on the dollar, tbree-fourthB of which levy may be worked out on the roads in the several road districts, and only one-half of the remaining fourth ie returned to the districts; the other half of the one-fourth constitutes a generel road fund. Therefore, there will be but a small amount of avail able fundB left with which to pay ex penses, which amount will not be available much before December, 1SS1. The board will do all they can with the means they have at their com mand, to keep up the roads, until Ju ly next, at wliioh time the levy for 1879 will run out, that being the end of the iear for whjch the taxes of 1S79 were levied. We respectfully recom mend that you use every means in 3'nur power to keep your distriots out of debt. Respectfully, Johx H. Shook, Jan. 15. 18S0. Pres. of Corn's.

The Vandalia Hue, whose at torney Mr. 8. F.

He re tained the fullness of his inte!ict with no perceptible decline of Its vig or up to within a few hours of hla death. His life was long, earnest and blnmeless. His death was calm, and without a struggle, he passed away like a Patriarch, leaving a worthy ex ample and hlpsqetl memory to his chil dren. Effingham Democrat. The deceased was the father of A. H.
