Church, in this city under the auspices of Rev. J. J. Roberta has just closed with an accession of about twenty.

Johnson will give another lesson in Vocal Musio this evening, Feb. 11th, in the basement of St.. Luke's Church. All -aro cordially invited to at tend to- night as the lesson is free. A delegation of the womans suffrage association was recjived by the Missouri legislature yesterday in joint session. Strong speeches were made by several Indies and gentlemen. After the adjourn ment of the convention, a suffrage peti tion was signed by the governor, lieuten ant governor and SO others, which almost assures the submission of the constitu tional amendment to be voted on by tho people. - Be sure andjbuy your Valentines of O.

A Washington despatch informs us that the President ha9 pardoned Dr. Mudd, now confined at thA Dry Tortugas, on a charge f complicity in the assassi nation of President Lincoln, also efforts aro being mado to secure tha pardon of Arnold and Spmgler, the two remaining prisoners confined on this charge, and thers is reason to believe they will be fuccessful. It is thought the B. & M. Road will reach the Missouri river by January, 1S70. Register. "Twill, eh? Where did you get your information? Guess you haven't beard from this section lately. Come out this way and look at tha gangs of workmen pushing things right along; look at the long lines of grading rapidly approach ing each -other, and these all ready for the rails: cast your eyes along at tha va rious stations on the line between Afton and the Missouri, and see the depot grouads that are being cleared, the buildings going up, &c ; look at all these certain signs cf speedy completion and then go home and tell the world that "It is certain thfl B. &. RnnH will rnn through trains from Burlington to G'en- wood before the leaves of the forest shall j 'all, nipped by the frosts of another au tuain." Opinion. ' B. & M. It. It. "We all know how thi same Company ha bamboozled Piatfgmoutb, and how it continues to hector that town and Cass countv. For vears this hus been eoing on find the Bur'mgrton Railroad i no nearer being built to that place than if was five years ago." We copy the foregoing scrap from a late number of the Nebraska City Vex, not for tho purpose of thanking our co temporary for the sympathy implied, nor yet for the purpose of endorsinz, in any degree, the charge so gratuitously made against the Burlington Sc Missouri River Railroad Company, or any of its Agents, for fancied coquetting with the localities named, on the railroad question which has of late taken a new impulse, but simply to show the sourness of stom ach which troubles our neighbors after tho late outburst of enthusiasm eicited by the sight of a couple of railroad offi cials. We trust our eotemporaries will, upon a sober second thought and a full survey of the whole ground, think better of the whole matter, and so gradually resome their aecustomed equinimity of tempsr, and, like ourselves patiently await the development of events. We ourselves have sometimes cha(Td and yielded to fits of impatience in view of what we have imagined unnecessary tar diness in the movements of the Company, but never in tho darkest hour of our prospects have we indulged in harsh ut terings against the B. & M. Company on the ground of unfair or dishonest deal ings with us on this question. That Company's conduct toward us has been uniformly marked with candor, and cour tesy, and consistency. In our eagerness to pry into and ascertain their purposes and ultonor designs, we may have manN fested undue importunity, but no one may charge us with having lost our sense of justice toward the Companv,or havi ng indulged in railing against its 1 gents As often as we have approached them upon this vital question.vital to our countv ,we have been bowed out with politeness, and have been informed that if they at any time were ready and desirous to commu nicate with us on tho subject, ihey would give us due notice and receive any prop osit".n which we might feci disposed to oTer to the Company as an inducement to take Cass county in the line of com munication westward, into the fertile prairies of Nebraska. We are satisfied because we have the utmost confidence in the honor and ability of tho company to fulfill all its contracts, and we have so much confidenee in the wisdom of its Directory as to feel assured that .hey will pursue the course which will be for the ultimate advantage of both the C m pany and the pee of South Nebraska, and whether thrv shall decide to take Plattsmoutb, or Nebraska City, or anv intermediate pomt on the river, in their pours, we shall give an earnest approval. The Burlington Company is no wild cat Company, but one of the most powerful corporations in the West, seettinj to pen etrate the fertile prairie lands of South Nebraska, and will become a powerful agent in the developoment of our bound l.ss resources, by bringing within oar reach the vast coal fields of Iowa, and r utt.ing us in direct communication wi'b tho vast pineries of Minnesota and Wis consin. Let us then lay aside all local jeal onsies and merge all personal interests f r the accomplishmentof this great end. Z.arpeat Steer In Tlie World Thre is a white steer, aged six yers and six months, beionginj to Samuel II. Jones, of SanjrHmon countv, Illinois, that is six feet six inches high; nine feet six inches in length; ten feet six inches around the girth; three feet ncross the hips; 8nd weighs thre thousand and six hundred pound! He is a cross of the "Short.IIorn Durham" tmd the "Pattern" stock. An excursion party was made up re cently, at Springfield, with the express purpose of visiting this monster beast, twelve miles from that place at Williams burg. The party, on their arrival, ap pointed a committee, consisting of Col. White, of Sangamon county, and our fellow citizen A. W. Bothwell, Esq., to take the exact measurement of this steer, which they did, with the above result. We derive these facts from Mr. A. W. Bothwell, one of the committeemen, and therefore they may be relied upon as correct, , Mr Jones has been offered $1, 500 for this steer, but refused to sell. He purposes increasing its weight to 4, 000 pounds, when he is to receive two thousand dollars for it. We challenge the wholo world to pro duce a Eteer equal in size and weight to' the one described. American Stock Jour nal. We learn from .the Brownville Adverti ser that a dead man was discovered, ap. parent murdered, in the lower edge of that county, just below St. Deroin. Sheriff Plasters immediately proceeded to the place indicated, summoned a Cor oner's jury, and examined the subject, and from him we.learn the following par ticulars : He bad apparently come to his death by a shot from a pistol or gun, the ball entering just below the left eye, ranging upward and bursting the skull, so that the ball was easily taken out by the Sheriff. Ths verdict of the jury was in accordance with these facts The conclusion of the jury was that he had not been murdered where found, and that he had boen dead quite a while, how long it was impossible to tell. Something had eaten off one-half of his face, and a portion of his neck and hands, leaving the bones exposed. When found he was lying on his back with a coarse mohair overcoat spread over him ; his boots. No. 8, wer- off, and set about ten feet from 'him. He had on dark b'Ovrn pants, white drilling drawers, two striped shirts, and two pair sock; his underclothes were oletn, ns though just washed. He was about twenty five vesrs o'd: five feet three nr four inches high, randy hair, apt roachi g near to rc't and emd to have just b en shaved except a small moustache and gotee. The lters W. B " wre tattooed on the in side of his right arm. ' On his person were found three pocket knives, and on his left hand on tho little finger three rings one small plain gold one small plain silver, aud one bone ring The whole afftir is now shrouded in the 11 1 most mvstery. No clue to his identity mrra thin is given above was found, and nothing gives the least direction to a shadow of suspicion as tewhen or where he came by bis death.

Also give them your order for the Celebrated Wier Wiilking Cultivator. About five years ago Mr. Thos. Thorn as, of this county, picked a few kernels of wheat from some canary seed in li'ack & Butterys store, and concluded to try the experimeut of cultivating them. The first year the crop was destroyed by ver min, exsept a few stocks from which he obtained 90 grains; the product of these 90 grains, up to this year, is 42 bushels, notwithstanding tho grasshoppers done serious damage to it during the past two years. Mr. Thomas thinks from what experience he has hail with this; new kind of wheat (which, from the method of obtaining it he calls Canary Wheat) that it will yield about 50 bushels to the acre with a fair opportunity. It makes good floor, of a yellowish cast,raises well and- makes as good biscuit as our b:st spring wheat flour. In order that the seed may be preserved, and oth ers may have a chance to try this wheat, Mr. Thomas proposes to dispose of a small quantity at $3.00 per bushel. He also has a small quantity of the fa mous Surprise Oats," from which he raised 2 12 bushels from 2 quarts the first season; and this year 44 12 busheis frorn the 2 1-2, notwitnstanding they were seriously damaged by grasshoppers both seasons, after they were headed out. The Oats will be disposed of, in small quantities, at $3.00 per bushel. Speci mens of the Wheat aod Oats can be seen by calling cn Mr. Thomas, or at the Her ald office. nov2Cm4 $1200 and all Expenses Paid !
