Miller, has gone to Salt Lake City to be absent until after the investi gation at Lincoln has ended. Married. At the residence of A. Holmes, Enj., February 14th, by Rev. J. B, Maifield, Sir. Francis M. Young and Miss Sarah E. Law, all of Casa County, Nebraska. Married, at the residence of Robert Puddy, Esq., in Stove Creek precinct, Cass county, on the evening of February 12th, by Rev. W. D. Gage, Mr. W. B. Southwell and Miss Mary A. Robertson. At the residence of Samuel May, Esq., in Stove Creek precinct, by Rev. Gage, on the evening of the 13th, Mr. Charles May and Miss Lucy E. Keller. The clothes thief has again put in an appearance in our city. Mrs. Coates' iine was robbed of its contents Tuesday night, including a number of Mr. Coates' shirts. The thief should be treated to a com plete suit of tar and feathers. We learn that M. L. White, Esq., has already purchased a part of the material for the erection of two business houses on Main street, and that work will be commenced assoon as tha fraat is out of the ground. It is seldom that people west of the Missouri river are favored with "garden sass" in mid winter, yet it is a solemn fact that Ilesser was in the city yester day selling large, fine stalks of Rhubarb, and that he will have a large quantity of lettuce for salt: in the course of two weeks. We have tasted the Rhubarb, and know it to be the genuine article, and no "ba$e imitation." Ilesser has the finett and largest grten house in the west. A man named Thomas Allard, one of the early settlers of Nebraska City, was found on the river bank frozen to death a few days since. He was adicted to hard drink, and it is supposed be fell ever the bank while intoxicated, and pro bably froze while in a drunken stupor. The net receipts of the Turners Mas qucrade last Tuesday evening were about $00, which will bo placed in the buildin. fund. They hope to be able to erect a fine hall during the coming season, which will be f permanent value to our city. In speaking of the costumes worn at the masquerade, we mentioned the names of a lew individuals woo were expensive suits, but neglected to say that there were many others who wore elegant and becoming suits, but who were so com pletely disguised that we were unable to detect who they were, and consequently were unable to mention their names. This was the first masquerado ever held in Plattsmouth, and we are glad to know that it was a complete success in every respect. The clowns, who seemed to have charge of affairs generally, acted their part to perfection, and kept every thing in perfect order. W hear tho.se who are well posted in such matters say that the Turner's So ciety in this city is tha best in the State, and we doubt not the truth of the asser tion. A U RESTED 1'UR VAU8AICT. On complaint of Esquire Lunt, of Tipton precinct, a woman named Whit ney, and her son Moses Whitney, were brought before Justice James Simpson, of Stove Creek, on a charge of vagrancy. The evidence was plain that they were able to work but persistently refused to do so, and that they lived by a well or ganized system of beggary. The wo man was sentenced to thirty days in the county jail, and the son to sixty days hard labor at the jail. The woman has lived in stove creek about two years, and her son has beejj there about four mouths. She is aged about 55 years, and her son about 29 years. They were brought to the city yesterday by constable Elliott and turned over to Sheriff Johnson. MR. HABQlCrT'S LttTl'BE. Plattsmoutii, Feb. 1G, 1871. Mr. Editor : Thinking it a good idea to publish all the good we can of our own county and the people in it, I would ask a few lines in your valuable journal, wherein to make mention of Hon. T. M. Marquett's lecture at Naomi Institute, Rock Bluffs, last evening. He had been announced to lecture for some time previous, and as bad as the roads were, he had a very fine audience indeed; in fact he had a house that any lecturer might feel proud of. The subject was "Early recollections of the practice of Law," and we may say that the lecturer handled his subject in a manner which showed that he was thoroughly convers ant with the 6uljcct. The lecture wa very interesting of itself, and Marquett's eloquence rendered it doubly so. The audience listened with wrapt attention, and were sorry when the lecture came to an end. Of Mr. Patterson's school much has been said, and we don't know that we can improve on it ; but will say this much, that Prof. Patterson deserves great credit for the experiment upon which he entered putting his capita into a good school, while there were serious doubts as to its success. And li the professor does not receive the support of the people of our county, we think it will be a burning shame. Prof. Pat terson is a genial, pleasant gentleman, and an accomplished teacher, and we hops to see him have the largest success. P. A GOOD WORK ACCOMPLISHED. At the last conference of the M. E. Church in this State, it was ascertained that quite a scope of country ia the west part of this county was not provided with any preachers, neither was it known whether there were any considerable number of members of the church living in that locality. It was decided, how ever, to have some missionary labor per formed during the present conference year, and the services of that well known Methodist pioneer, Rev. W. D. Gage, of this city, were secured for the work. He started out to hunt up I the stray sheep in this district, and only found one small organization, consisting of a half dozen members, at Stove Creek. He selected his points for preaching, and went to work to secure eonverts and church organizations. He has succeeded in establishing regular church organizations at the following places where regular services are held : at Omaha Junction. Louisville, South bend, Rolling Green, Stove creek, at the Canadian colony, and at the Illinois colo ny. He preaches three sermons each Sabbath, and labors among the people during the week, and now has the satis faction of knowing that he has a charge of over one hundred and forty members where only a half dozen were to be found when he commenced his gratuit ous labor (for there is no appropriation made for this work). Rev. Gage held a revival at the Illinois settlement, com mencing on the 1st day of January and lasting sor twenty-flve days, at which twenty-eight were added to the church. He is doing a noble work and should be remembered at the next conference, as he undoubtedly will be. We also learn that steps are bein taken to erect a neat church building at the Illinois colo ny during the coining season. An unique recommendation given bay clergyman for a friend who desired a situation is as follows : "He is perfectly human, and has made some of the ablest mistakes that ever were made, showing in their happening and in their correcting a hopeful, conscious and grow ing manhood." Virginia is slowly but surely worming itself into th affections of the people. The last effort is the concoction of a baverage called "perMtnnion whisky," which is said to be vastly more penetra ting than that which hasgivea New Jer sey such prominence. The press and people prouounce Go dey's the best magazine in the world. Its plates are very fine, and the reading matter is extremely interesting. No husband who loves his wife will fail to supply her with this idispensable publi cation. Advertiser, Ripley, Miss- An ingenious mechanic has introduced still another novelty in the way of horse cars, which is said to be a great stroke of economy, as it sav-s one horse and one man on each car. The horse is inside of tho car, iu a little compartment by himself. He moves the car by an end less chain power and cone pulleys. The maddest man in Indiana lives at Patoka. He told his wife Le was going down celler to commit s iicide, and did go down and fire a broadside into a pork barrel. His wife kept right on knitting, and after a whild the man came up stairs, swearing that the woman hadn't got any feelir.g. Along the Sierra Nevada, close to the line of snow, a plant grows of size vary ing from an inch to two inches in thick ness, and height to the dimensions of the largest cabbages. It is known as the snow cactus, and depends for moisture upon the melted snow. It has recently been proposed to treat this plant as a table vegetable, and it is said, boiled and served as asparagus, this cactus is found equally succulent and satisfactory. A man wrote to Horace Greeley for a situation, and received the following let tcr in Horaces handwriting: 'Hits is the 2,000th application in a week. Go to the devil. I can t hire ever- d d fool." The document" was signed Hor ace Greeley, butno one could read it. The man presented it to the cashier, who looked it over and handed the man $20,01, supposing it lo be an order for his salary; and he has been drawing his salary on that letter regularly for six months. What a warning this is to the youth of the country to learn to write. A Good Hit. A clergyman who en joys the substantial benefits of a fine farm was slightly taken a few days a?o by the plowman, who was sitting on his plow in a cornfield, resting his horse. The reverened gentleman, being an econ omist, said with great seriousness, 'John, wouldn't it be a good plan for you to have a good stub scythe here, and be cuting a few bushes along tha fence while the horse is restiug a short time?' 'Wouldn't it be well, sir,' said John, w th quite as serious a countenance as the divine wore himself, 'for youjto have a tub of potatoes in the pulpit, ami when they are singing, peel 'em awhile to be ready for the pot ?' The reverened pen tleman laughed heartily and went on his wav. NEBRASKA GROWN FRUIT TREES ! FURNAS DROITXTILLE, XCD.
