gTMr. Wmiam T. Parcel, formerly
of this place, is engaged in selling lum
ber at Lincoln Cty. We can say to the
people of Lincoln that they will find Mr
Parrel n of the fairest men to deal with
in all Nebraska in fact, we do not be
lieve he would wrong any man out of a
dollar for the whole city of Lincoln.
He purchases his lumber of Simpson,
M:ckelwait & Co. of this city, at an ad
vance cf only $5 per thousand over Oma
ha prices, one half less than it will
cost to go to Omaha for it. This firm is
selling pine lumber at $5 per thousand
less than Nebraska City prices.
l"W. Mickelwait, Ecq., left for the
Wisconsin pineries last week , where he
will perfect arrangements for obtaining
lumber at the very lowest fig ires. Mr.
Simpson informs us that their nrrane-
ments will be such that they can sell
'umber here at Council Bluff prices,. with
a very small'addiiion for freight. These
gentlemen are manifesting the right
spirit, amlwe hope every otherfabranoh
of business in the city will be pushed
with the same energy that they are
showing in the lumber trade. All we
want is low.prices and good stocks to se
cure trade.

piTA correspondent asks "How does
your Probate Judge exrlain the law so
as to grant license to children of 14
years. I cannot see, even if they do
have the consent of parents. Tlease ex
plain for I do not think that the law ever
intended to have a man rob the cradle to
obtain a wife "
We do not know whether our Probate
Judge has ever granted license to parties
of o..ly 14 years; but the only guide we
know of in the matter is sections 5, 6 and
7 of chapter 24 Revised Statutes We
presume, however, the Probate Jude
mizht refase a license in cases of appli
cation by very youthful persons, even if
they had the consent of parents.
(J"A staunch old Democrat of this
county one of the "regular.old stand
by's" said a few days since in a promis
cuous congregation, of men who were
discussing the merits of the various news
papers of the State, that he was "taking
three State papers the Omaha He'ald
the Nebraska City Sew and the Platts
mouth Herald, and although differing
from us materially in poliitcs, he prefer
red the Herald to either of the ot iers,
and was not so certain but he woul ;
rather have it than both the thera."
We thank the gentleman for hie good
opinion of our paper, and relate tbein-
cident merely to show that the Herald ie

ATltorougta Domestic Test.
We have for some time contemplated
effecting a thorough domestic test
through regular and diversified use of
all the varieties of sewing machines that
compete for tho public favor; and have
accordingly invited the seveT&I manufac
turer to lend proper facilities for testing
their machines. We give our first notice
to tho Willcox &. Gibbs.
The machine is exceedingly simple.
Very slight instructions and ingenuity
are required to understand its parts and
thier use; and there is no excuse for get
ting it out of order until the parts are
worn out. As a consequence, it always
works at a moment's notice, though it
may have been laid aside Tor'moi ths. The
needle is short and straight, and conse
qently not liable to break; in six months
use we have not broken nor bent a single
needle. The f tension" is the most man
ageable and certain contrivance of the
kind, and never baffles the operator. It
never misses a stitch. The thread is ta
ken directly from the spool, without re
winding The work can be raveled with
the greatest ease, if desired, while it is
perfectly secure against raveling if left
by itself. After much wear and many
washings, the stitching is found to retain
all the roundness, evenness and firmness
which are so much admired at first. We
have tried it on every kind of garment,
and have not yet found a broken thread
in its work As a sinzle-threadod ma
chine, we irere prejudiced against it
believing that its wore would rip, pucker
in washing, etc.; but all ohjrcti-n on
core are tiwd to be groundless. We
stand ready to do justice to every other
manufacturer, hut we advise our readers
to put ne fairh in disparaging criticisms,
for we are eatisfied that none of ar.v im
portance aa be sustained. The Xew
