We visited Mr. C. II. Woleott's vine
yard, the other day, and were astonished
to find so extensive an improvement
where e ighteen months ago was nothing
but a brush patch. Mr. Wolcott has ten
acres under cultivation, mostly in grapes,
fruit trees, shrubbery and strawberries,
lie has pome of the choicest Tarieties
known. 1 1 is vegetable garden is a curi
osity to look at some of the produc
tions being twice and three times the
usual size. We had only a few minutes
in which to look over the many interest
ing features of this ten acres, but pur
pose visiting it again when we have more
leisure.
Wc made an item yesterday of tho ar
rest of Billy Cunningham, and stated
that those who saw the affair thought
the "other feller" should have been
served likewise. Sheriff Johnson in
forms us that he did not sec the fighting,
but saw Billy running after some one,
cursing and disturbing the peace, for
which he arrested him. He had no
power to arrest any person except be
aw them disturbing the pcaoe, or upon
proper complaint being entered and a
warrant issued. Tt appears that Billy
had lecn up before the Recorder not
more than fifteen minutes before, and
had gone immediately back and com
menced a disturbance. The "other fel
ler" might have been to blame, but he
was not teen by tho Sheriff to do any
thing worthy of arrest, and no complaint
was tiled again.vt bi:;.

We venture to say that no town west
of the Missouri river hasincrcascd its

months than Plattsmouth, and no town
west of the Missouri river does as heavy

Tielmor'n men have sunk two or three
different shafts in the vicinity of Rocky
Point. The last one is now down about
50 feet. Mr. Thompson informs us that
he does not expect to find oal under 300
or 400 feet, but that these shafts are be
ing sunk with a view to ascertaining the
location of certain geological formations.
An apple was laid upon our table, yes
terday, measuring thirteen inches in cir
cumference, and weighing seventeen
ounces. It was raised on the farm of J.
B. Glover, of Plattsford, Sarpy county,
in this State, and is a noble specimen of
the fruit which can be raised upon the
soil of Nebraska. J'rpuhlu-an.
Perry Walker, 2 miles south of this

A fellow who had thrown himself out
side a large quantity of benzine at an
early hour this morning, created quite
an excitement by taking a "buggy ride"
with an ox team belonging to anofner
man. He w.as in a suitable condition to
lava "worm fence," when he sallied
forth from a retail benzine establish
ment, climbed into the wagon and com

The owner soon discovered his "car

THE SHOHTEtiT.
The Iiiucoln Journal has the following
in relation to the B. it M. R. R :
Two of the five railroads projected
with Lincoln as an objective point, are
being rapidly constructed, the B. & M.
R. II., crossing the Missouri at Platts
mouth, forming a direct communication
with Chicago eastward! and via the U.
P. R. R., to San Francisco in the west,
and furnishing the shortest line yet
built or projected between these great
commercial centers.
The other day in Schenectady, an old
lady with two bandboxes in her arms,
camo to the track of the Central Railroad
and inquired at what time the next train
was due. On being informed that it
would pass through ahe city in half an
hour, she quietly dumped her bandboxes
on the pavement and set down, remark
ing that she'd wait till it passed; she did
not want to be run over, and a body
couldn't be too keerful.
