A petition signed by a large number
of citizens was presented before the
County Com nibsioners ti-Jay, askirg at

also presented a remonstrance signed by
a large number of voters cf Rock Bluffs

Th9 Brownville Democrat cries "More
Whitewash" in consequence of the vot
ing down of the impeachment resolution.
Wc hope the Democrat will not lose
sight of the fact, as it goes along howling,
that every democrat but two in the
House voted against the resolution for
impeachment. We are not finding fault
with tho?c men for voting as they
dcciaed best, but when "whitewash" is
the cry it must not be forgotten who
urrl the brash.
The Omaha Herald is spplying the
lash to the tender part3 of the Democ
racy of Nebraska. Hear it :
"Let no true Democrat be either de
luded or discouraged by the course of
the political Hessians whs are seeking to
destroy the Democratic organization in
this State. They may hold swa' for the
time, but honest Democratic instincts
will correct the wrongs that are being
done by these men, and all will be well
in coming time."

Frcm a gentleman who arrived in the

train was near Forest City last night, a
German, who was under the influence of
liquor, leaped from the car while the
train was under full headway. The

Wc have received no proceedings from
the R. 11. meeting hel l at Van Horn's
School House last Saturday, but learn.
incident-, that the majority of the
meeting wa3 opposed to submitting a
proposition for voting bonds in that pre
chief, in accordance of Mr. Joy's propo
sition, and resolutions to that effect were
passed. Whatever our idea rnay be of
the financial view taken by the people of
Liberty, we certainly think they should
oppose the giving of aid to secure the
construction of this road unless they are
thoroughly convinced that the road
would more than compensate them for
the expense under Mr. Joy's proposition.
The probabilities are that Liberty pre
cinct will not vote any aid.
Since the above was in type we have
received the proceedings of the meeting
which are herewith published.

The committees appointed by the people
of Plattsmouth and Rock Bluffs precinct
held a meeting yesterday morning and
unanimously agreed as the representa
tives of the people of theee precincts, to
ask the county commissions to submit a
proposition in substance a3 follows:
To vote, in acceptance of Mr. Joy's
proposition to build the St. Louis &
Nebraska Trunk RailroaJ, on the ques
tion of issuing $100,000 in county bonds,
$:;0,000 in Plattsmouth precinct, and
$20,000 in Rock Bluffs precinct bonds.
This proposition was unanimously agreed
upon by the different committees, and
was laid before the commissioners in the
form of a pciition. The commissioners
declined to grant the prayer of the peti
tion, and refused to submit the propo
sition. This would seem to end the
Trunk R. R. project, for the present, at
least.

We hear it talked that Prof. d'Alle

in this city, of a fine Academy Building.
We hope he may do eo, for there is no
kind of doubt that we need something cf
the kind, and that it will pay well for the
outlay. Naomi Institute, at Rock Bluffs,
is the o:iy building in the county dedi
cated to educational purposes, aside
from the district school house. Let us
have the d'AHemand Academy building,
by all means. Let every citizen en

A "iVJioIr ilroif of t'atile Stolen.
Some four weeks ago Mr. Z. Bueking-
inyhaui, a wealthy farmer living about
eight miles south from Gienwood, Mills
county, Iowa, missed a lot of cattle
which were being pastured in a stalk
field ; and on inquiry lie learned that
three men had been seen driving them
toward this city, having taken them from
the field in broad e'ay light. Ho tracked
them to il;is place, and learned that they
had been crossed to this side of the river
and driven through the city and thence
westward. Throufeh the assistance of
A. B. Taylor, Ksq., an extensive stock
breeder and dealer of this county, and
one of th earliest settlers of the State,
he got track of them on this side, and
finally found where the cattle had been
sold to a gentleman named Covey, near
Lincoln- Mr. Buckingham and Mr Tay
lor passed through the city Saturday
evening with the cattle. We have not
learned whether or not they have any
clue to the thieves.
THE SCJIOOI. Fl'XD.
The news from Lincoln during the
past ten dajs leaves little doubt in the
mind of any sane man that the school
fund has been handled in a manner
highly inpruper, and that at least a portion
of it will never again seethe inside cfthe
State Treasury, nor will it ever be of any
benefit to the common schools of the
State. Whether 'or no David "Butler,
Thos. Kennard, James S.veet, N. C.
Brock, "Honest John" or "any othdr
man," has been guilty of "high crimes
and misdemeanors" in the handling of
thi3 fund, we leave for the present to be
determined by the Investigation Com
mittee (and the people will hold that
committeo to a strict accountability for
what they ru?y do). What is of far
more importance tho people of this State
than any or all of these individuals, ia
the School Fund itself, or whatever may
bo available of it, and we "suggest"
(in the language of one of Ne
braska's eminent Statesmen) thai
this session of the LegL-laturc should
not pass over without some action being
taken to place this fund beyond the
reach of those who would squander it
cither through design or lack of finan
cial ability. Let a law be passed calliag
in what is out as soon as passible, and
let no dollar of it hereafter be loaned on
bond and mortgages, but let every cent
of it be invested in U. S. and State se
curities. Could the money to handled
without loss to tho State by loaaing it
in the counties, we should much prefer
that way ; tut as it i?, we certainly think
our legislators should take no chances
upon any method where temptation to
speculate is thrown out, but should at
once provide for the investment in un
doubted securities. They will do the
State and the educational interests of
the State greater good by providing for
the safety of the School Fund in future
than by attempting to hunt up ar.y that
may have been lost.
"TnE ToiEo 54i:n or t::s aoe.
The above is the title to a very in
teresting and instructive lecture which we
had the pleasure of heaaing last evening
at Naomi Institute, Rock Bluffs, by our
rci!ow townsman, Geo. S. Smith. Mr.
Smith is an earnest speaker, and holds
his audience like a master mind. The
subject was well chosen for the occasion
the lecture being for the especial bene
fit of the pupils of Naomi and was
handled very thoroughly by the lecturer.
One of the important themes upon
which he treated wa3 that the "young
men cf the age," and especially those
who were attending Naomi Institute,
were preparing themselves for the actiye
duties of life, and that it was all import
ant to tl.emsalves and to the community
generally, that the preparation be thor
ough and of the proper kind ; for as the
pupil rated in the school, so would he,
in all probability, rate in tho outer world
when he came out from the school room
to battle with the social evils and busi
ness realities of life. Mr. Smith spoke
in eloquent terms of the Institute and of
the self-sacrifi -ing principal Prof. Pat
terson aud he earnestly urged, not only
upon the pupils and their parents, but
ptoplo generally of the locality, tho reai
importance of properly tupporting Prof.
Patterson in his efforts to build up an in
stitution of learning at Rock Bluffs which
will some day be looked upon as one of
the grandest institutions of our State,
and perhaps of the west. He cited the
humble origin of Harvard University
"Old Harvard," as it is called and told
them Naomi might yet ocupy as proud a
position before the intellectual world a3
does "Old Harvard" of to-day. But
little notice had been given of the lec
ture, yet the hall was well filled with ea
ger listeners, embracing gray headed
men and children who have not reached
beyond the primary department, all of
whom seemed deeply interested in every
word that fall from the f?pcaker'slips. The
fair sex wa3 well represented, and as
sisted in furnishing the audience with
some excellent vocal music, both before
and after the lecture. A vote of thanks
was tendered Mr. Smith by the audience,
and it Wi33 announced by Prof. Patterson
that other Iocture3 would fo'Lw this
one, and that an effort would be made
to make this an important feature of the
Institute. We shall take occasion, poon,
to speak cf this institution of learning
more minutely than heretofore, for we
look upon it as one of the things of
which every citizen of the Stato should
be proud.

a ni.ii Rersr as a jiaiit
time.
A Perfect Fenst of 31r.le.
At an early hoar last evening the peo
ple began to assemble at the new Hall,
and before the hour arrive! for com
mencing the ev?ning's entertainment
there were at least a thousand people
within the Hall. The hall is 4 x 0
feet and 20 feet in height, and is fini.-hed
in a style not surpassed in the West.
The stage and scenery occupy about ten
fect off the south end. The Hall was
lighted up by three elegant chandeliers
holding two dozen lamps, and the stage
was lighted by three single lamps. Tho
evenings entertainment commenced with
the "Venus Waltz, ' by the Johnson
Bro.'eBand; and right here let us Bay
that the universal sentiment was that
this band has no superior west of the
Missouri, in which sentiment we fully
concur. Next came the oration by Hon.
J. B. J. Ryan, of Omaha. Hiss-abject
was entitled "Shamrock Leaves," and
consisfed mainly in a fine tribute to lib
erty loving Irishmen, and demonstrating
by passing events, that the day of Ire
land's liberation is not far distant. The
speaker was frequently applauded by the
enthusiastic audience. Next came the
musical entertainment ; and of this we
would like to speak in detail, 'tut the
great number of pieces executed, and
songs sung that were not on the publish
ed programme renders it impossible to
do 10. The audience arc largely indebt
ed to the kindness of Frof. Behr, of St.
Joseph, Mrs. O'Neil, Miss Anna Mur
phy and Miss Johanna O'Connor, of
Council Bluffs, and the Misses Agnes
and Mary McGinn, of Omaha,
who assisted in the entertainment
Mrs. O' Neil's "Ave Maria" and "Thou
art so near, and yet so far," were ren
dered with a power and pathos not often
heard except from singers of great re
nown. Miss Annie Murphy, and Miss
Johanna O'Connor each sang in a man
nor highly creditable, as also did the
Misses McGinn, and they will long be
gratefully remembered by the audience
assembled in the Hall last evening. Prof.
Behrs talent as a pianist and his great
familiarity with concert3 of this kind
rendered him invaluable to the success
of the entertainment. Of cur home tal
lent connected with the concert we
are unable to speak in terms of sufficient
praise. They far surpassed, in point of
exceileuce, the hopes of their warmest
friends and most enthusiastic admirers:
Miss Ella Crocker was suffering from a
severe affliction of the throat, yet her
"Shcppard and Cuckoo" Solo wa3 given
in a way to effectually demonstrate, (if
any further demonstration were needed
before a Plattsmouth audience) that she
has few equals aside from professional
singers. Misses Lillie Simpson, Carrie
Sehlatcr, Nettie and Katie Johnson,
gave the "Riding in a Sleigh" in a su
perior manner. They will soon be equal
to the best andjeven now show an under
standing of music which many person of
more mature years might well be proud
of. The duct by the-Misses Maggie and
Jennie Robertson, entitled "What are
you crying for, Nellie," brought Jown
the house. It was executed to the life,
and created a perfect furore of applaisc.
In the line of instrumental music, the
crowning effort of the evening was, un
doubtedly 'The March cf Tauhenseo,''
by miss Lillie Simpson, It is one cf
the most difficult piece 3 written, and is
rarely attempted except by Professors of
renown. It was executed by Miss Lil
lie with all case imaginable, and convin
ced the audience that Prof. Behr was
not mistaken when he said she wa3 the
finest pianist in tho West Taken all
together tho concert was a brilliant af
fair, and did honor to the occasion and
the participants. At the close of tho
Concert supper was announced; and
while the throng was refreshing the in
ner man the floor managers were busy
removing seats "and preparing for the
"light fantastic" part of the programme.
The hail will bo open to-night and to
morrow night, during which time a per
fect round of pleasure is anticipated.
A Eesiutiful I.lon-
Away among the Alleghanics there is
a spring so small that a single ox in a
summer's day could drain it dry. It
steals its way among the hills till it
spreads out into tho beautiful Ohio.
Thence it stretches away a thousand
miles, leaving on its banks over a hun
dred villages and cities and many a culti
vated farm, and bearing half a thousand
steamboats. Then joining the Missis
sippi, it stretched away and away some
twelve hnndred miles more till it falls
into the emblems of eternity. It is one
of the tributaries of the ocean, obedient
only to God, and shall roll and roar till
the angel with one foot on the sea and
the other 011 the land shall lift up his
hand and swear that time shall be no
longer. So with moral influence. It is
a rill a rivulet a river an ocean and
is boundless and fathomless eternity.
At Night. Here is one of Thacker
ary's pleasant touches:
"Tt is night now: and hero is home.
Gathered under the quiet roof, elders and
children lie alike at rest. In the midst
of a great peace and calm, the stars look
on from heaven. The scene is peopled
with the p.ast : sorrowful remoics for
sins and short comings, memories of pas
sionate joys and griefs raise out of their
graves, but not alike calm. Byes, a3 I
shut uine, look at me that have long
ceased to shine.
The farmer who has raised produce
for a distant market is limited to a few
articles, such as wheat, corn, iye, etc.;
which greatly exhaust the soil while he
who has a market near at home, can cul
tivate almost any product for which his
soil and climate are adapted, and can
have a thorough rotation of crops, eo
necessary to preserve the vitality of the
soil.
A Beautiful. Sentiment. We have
not for a long time seen a more beautiful
sentiment than that by James Russell
Lowell, where he says : "I am satufid
that. I am en the right path so long as I
can sec anything to make me happier,
anything to make me love man, and
therrf.re God, the more. God is not
far fr'ia that heart to v.hich man is
nc.ir,
THE iiIS. AIHI.M CASE.
Full r-rt:-tilnrs of l!:c A flair.
The kidnapping case, oC which we
made mention last evening, occurred at
Weeping Water Falls, where it has
created no little excitement. As tbe
matter is to undergo legal investigatin
we refrain from any comment, aud slia.U
only state the facts as they appear to be
generally conceded. Some years ago,
Mr. Lewis Barrows and his wife separa
ted, and wera- divorced. He is a Bap
tist minister, and resides at Peroral,
Iowa. His former wife lives at Daven
port, Iowa, and is reported to be living
in adultery with a man named A. K.
Gould. They had two daughters, named
Louisa and Inez, now aged respectively
17 and 15 years. The daughters were
given to the care of the father, who sent
them to Weepinjr Water to reside with
an uncle, named Simon Barrows, a Con
gregational preacher. It would seem
that the mother was anxious to have the
girls with her, and that such was their
desire, but the father was opposed to
the arrangement, and sent them to
Weeping Water with a view to keeping
them away from their mother, and influ
ences surrounding her.
The girls have lived with their Uncle
since last November. Not long since
Mr. L. F. Reed, the P. M. at Lincoln,
received a letter from the man Gould
making him liberal offers if he would
-see to getting the girls aboard the cars
at this city which of course Mr. Reed
did not see proper to accept. A few
days ago a letter came directed to the
girls, which the Llncle thought proper
to examine himself, his snspicions having
been arroused by the letter to the Post
master. This letter seems to have de
detailed a plan for the escape of the girls
It stated that at about 1 1 o'clock on
Sunday a carnage would drivo to the
hou;-e (after the family had gone to
church) and that a gentleman would
present a card with the name of A.
K. Gould thereon, whereupon the girls
were to immediately get into the carriage
and flee. This letter was kept rrom
the girls, a warrant was issued, and the
good people of Weeping Water
patiently awaited the arrival of
the Sabbath and the gentleman in the
carriage. Sunday came, so did 11
o'clock, so did this strange gentleman
m the carriage (procured at the famed
livery stable of J. W. Shannon, and ycu
know that he keeps the best of rigs,
just such as would be likely to entice
any young girl to ride). The girls had
gone to church (not having received the
letter), and the stranger went thither
and sought an interview. He met the
eldest girl, presented her the card with
the name of Gould thereon, but she did
not seem to comprehend. About this
time the constable who was in waiting
and watching developments, stepped up
to the strange gentleman and arrested
him in the name of the lav, for attempt
ing to kidiiap the girls- lie was taken
before Esquire Jcnks, where he waived
an examination, admitting that he came
for the girls, but denying any attempt
to kidnap them. He was brought to
thi3 city and lodged in jail, in default of
$1,500 bail. lie was brought before
Judge Child, this morning, on a writ of
halcas corpus, but the hearing was post
poned until to-morrow, to await the ar
rival of a transcript of proceedings bc

Good Lcck. Some young men talk
about luck. Good luck is to get up at
six o'clock in the morning. Good luck,
if you only have a shilling a week, is to
live cn eleven pence, and save a penny.
Good luck is to trouble yourself with
your own, and let others' business alone.
Good luck is, fulfill the commandments,
and to do unto other people as we wish
them to do unto us. We must pled and
persevere. Pence must be taken care of
ucuaut; nn-j w . . a
iv. Lt n in thi wnrld ' we must take
care of home, sweep our own doorways
clean, try to neip otner peopie, atum
temptations, and have truth and faith in
God.

T thought 1 ri'i'lit nut to conclude this
article with.mt letting the reader know
why this liigl.t an 1 gonial spirit is 110
longer here to a id to the world's harm
less amusement. Wei!, this is the rea
son :
Whenever he lecenred, wh?th?r in
New England, California or London,
there wjs sure to be a lot of young fel
lows to gather round him, and go home
with liiiu to his hotel, order supper, and
spend half the nirlit in toiling stories and
finging songs. To any mart this will be
fatal in time ; but when a nightly carouse
follows an evening's performance before
an audience, and is succeeded by a rail
road journey the next day, the waste of
vitality is fearfully rapid. Five years of
sucli a life finished poor Charlet Browne.
He died in London in 1S67, aged thirty
three years, and he now lies buried at
the home of his childhood in Neine.
He wa not a deep drinker. He was
not a ruan of strong appetites. It was
the night waited in conviviality, which
his system needed for Meep that sent
him to his grave forty years before his
time. For men of his profession and
cast of character, for all editors, literary
msn and artists, there is only one safety,
that is tetotalism. He should havo taken
the advice of a stag driver on the plain3
to whom ho once offered some whisky,
and I eommend it strongly to the count
less hosts who see this paper every
week:
" I don't drink ! I won't drink ! and
I don't like to sec anybody else drink.
I am of the opinion of those mountains
keep vour top cool. They've got snow,
and I've got brains; that's all the dif
ference." James J'artori.
The La Crosse Leader is responsible
for the following:
"Not long since, while one of the
river boats was taking on some livestock
among the lot was one large gray mule,
that refused to walk the staging. The
mate sang out to aroutabout to 'twUt
his tail an 1 he'd come. ' A coroners
jury decided that the man came to his
death 'by obeying orders-' "
Ilev. TeterStryLer, D. D., Pastor of
the N orth Iiro3d Street Presb3-terian
Church, Philadelphia, says of "Our
Father's House": The same facinating
style which characterizes tho "Night
Scenes" is apparent in "Our Father's
House." Dr. larch's publications are
evangelic, practical and popular. Full of
choice matter, and arrayed in tho most
beautiful garb, it is not surprising that
the intelligent public, sick of the insipid
literary which floods the country, are
grasping, with avidity, these books.
"Our Father's IIouss" is food for the
mind and the soul.
