The editor of the Omaha Herald, Dr.

City to be absent until after the investi

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,

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.
