KEFOR5I.
Yes, we need it, and the Herald, for
tic, will most heartily endorse any
measure .that looks towards a true and
ii inest reform in our National or home
;olities; but the unthinking yell which
-'outs reform, reform, is too much like
mad cry that swells up from the
'.roats of overburdened Paris when
hey shout Lberty, liberty. Their hb-
1 1 ty mean3 anarchy, and a great deal of
:e reform of the present day tuc-aas
Miy a change in the plunderers, a new
leal at the offices and patronage of the
V.r.ernraent. Ilonest as Horace himself
i ;:y be, he is surrounded by a hungry
vrde, and were it possible for him t
i-t elected, such a hungry swarm of half
-:r.rved and ferocious beggars would rush
on him as to preclude the possibility
! any honest reformation in thes3 mat
' 1 rs, at least, for it is not probable that
c man who, by all his friends accounts,
mnot refuse a needy villain's check for
ionty or thirty dollars, could, when
.'resident, refuse the same scamps an
lice of profit or prominence, Think
well of this fact, oh, Reformers !
MKDK 4 1. IS I.
That is the name sought to be given
t.i the movements of a fe-w of ourf iiow
i itizens. In political matters, a great
deal sometimes lies in a name, and it is
not so easy to mike a rGse smell as svet
by the name of dandelion.
A liberal man d2?irc3 to hear his
neighbor's opinion, and to allow for his
idiosyncraetes, and humors, but our
liberal political friends, are not willing
that we should even think that Gen.
Grant is an honest man; that he has
been belied, perchance, and that it might
be possible that he caruestly wanted to
reform a bad system, and found Libera
geutlemeu and Demcciatie ideas too
strong for even his iron will. ' Be chary
of your blame, till you know all the
facts.

A TRIP TlIHOl'OU CASS COUNTY
One buy's Ride.
Ye Editore, F eling the need of some
air not polluted with the smell of benziue
and tLe compound odor of ink und lead
dust, bethovght himself that such a
thing might be fnd treyond the hills of
Plattsniouth, and accordingly placed him
self behind a pair of Shannon'- st to
pers, and presto -
The dingy office, the muddy river, the
shrieking whistle, and Riding draymen
ar; left behind, and soon-VjLbroa
free prairies we were speeding away,
drawing in with each breath a draught
of elixir that many a Wall st. Banker
might well give of his thousands freely
for a like draught.
Reautif'd, aluio-t beyond comparison,
is,the prairie in June," I.e. MitifJ a'f over
Nebraska, but doubly so, wlo n, a is the
case in this county, one m Idotu or never
reaches a point entirely out of sight of
timber, either natural or artificial. On
every hill-top stands the stately Cotton
wood, planted in methodical lines, the
border of which, so straight and prim,
looks - precisely as if souij giant hay cut
ter had, with its sharp blade, sliced down
the edges and reduced it to a right angle
with its mother earth, instantaneously.
I11 the vailoys-and nooks, the btoad
leavrd, stulbed oak of natural growth,
and darker foliage, irregular as to boun
dary lines and fantastic in setui-angular
anti-perpendicular, and curious growths,
te!l to the observant eye at a glance whose
groves are the handiwork of dame nature,
or the .handier work of her brother-in-law,
man.
Now t.) the folks, for folks there are
in abundance on all these roads. The
great desert has blossomed and borne
fruit, and not the least of its t -flirts
seem to have been turned towards pro
ducing the human family.
Down a lane, by a huge oat field, and
a snug brown hoo-e, in the shadiest of
spots, with the apple orchard on one
cidc, and the feak woods on the other,
lives "Doc." Wiley cveiybody calls
him l'Doc." and we suppose the Her
ald can also.
Here we dine in good old fashioned
farmer style, and after dinner an hour's
walk through the gardens, -the currant
walk, the plum patch, the peach rows,
and the apple orchard, wll convince the
roost skeptical Eastern man that Ne
braska can raise fruit. Why, the ap
ple trees are jut lo.ided.down.
Gathering a handful of tan.fi some
thing new here to us to remember the
place and the man, we climb into the
buggy and wend our way to Mr. Pleas
ant, a pleasant place, indeed. Mr. Linch
showed us fruits and berries in abund
ance. Ilia apple trees vie with the Doe
tor's in producing as many apples to the
limb and more limbs to the tree Lhan
any other State in the Union can.
From Ml Pleasant to the Hon. S. M.
Kirk Patrick's, is a short evening's ride,
and we reached there about sundown.
In the spacious farm house there are
man rooms, and we gladly laid ourselves
away in one of them, after an evening
spent in such pleasant chat as one sel
dom has the chance to enjoy in this
work-a-day world. Mr. K. is a good
talker, and what ho doesn't know about
fNcbra-ka, in h-r ea.ly day?, and the
men that have m i- her famous-, is
hardly worth knowo-g.
In the morning we shall ! the Weep-.
ing Water valley, and tell you how the
white stone fences look and how the
1,200 acre farms get along.
- firinil's Relation.
Our goo frien 1 of the Dee (0'naha
has been to see Father Jesse at Coving
ton, and tcl's us one fact among .luaiiy
others in his very readable letter.
He says Mrs. Grant avers that she
never knew or heard .f one-half the
relatives of the Grant family that have
sprung up since the General became
President. This is the fact. The New
Yoik Turns ;v. other reliable paper
have frtquently e?p"scd this charge and
shuwi ') :.t of all the relations Grant
is elrTr d with keeping in office, a
iargi- pioporlion were appoiu ed before
he became Fre.-id.nit, many more urs
no relatives at all, and he never heard of
their names even, and the few show ton
have been appointed by his power were
men strongly recomru -tided by their
State delegations as men eminently qual
ified for the position aligned them. Do
let us have some truth and plausibility
in these charges against our public effi
cers, 'ere we take them up and sow them
broadcast over the land in two conti
nents.

If the Nebrasl a City Chronicle is
short of cd tors we can lend them a few,
either of the "Macs" here will go down
and "tub." a day or two. If they are
not, we would thank them to give us a
little credit in Plattxuouth for our good
deeds. Mr. Chronicle man appropriated
sll of Dan. Wheeler's splendid editoiial
on hind matters, which we copied, giv
ing credit to the Lnnl Agent, and they
printed without creilit to any one, not
even theuiselves. Dan. says he would
not have cared only he sat up three
nights, and forgot to go to lodge on two,
in order to ggt that up, and he feels
sorter, you know. Our own "Answers
to Correspondents," a few remarks on
Stonten, and a slice of an editorial or
two, look well ia th' ir columns. The
mechanical get up of the paper is good,
and they set oil" our own words well.
It does not hurt our pht links a bit, the
oniy trouble is we are afraid to return
the compliment and credit to the Pieaa
ami Chrnniilr bi-i':iui. w unt sure

In regard to the cultivation of cigars
Greeley is said to advise growers to be
careful" in planting them with the small
end in the ground; they should beset
in rows, to be no less thin two feet from
each other; care should be taken to
keep" thein well watered, for if allowed
to become dry, they peel and won't
smoke worth a cent. By keeping them
well watered, in ab at three months
they will be ready for gathering in
bunches of twenty-five or fifty. They
liay then be packed into boxes and sent
..- market, after they have been proper
ly stamped on.

Our re Union for 1872 has come and
gone, once more the comrades of many a
hard fought field have seen each other's
well known faces and feJt the grasp of
true and faithful broth r soldiers' hands
At an early hour the streets and hotels
began to fill up, and the town to wear
an air of expectation. When after the
arrival of the moining train it was known
that our orator had arrived, and stran
gers faces appeared on every tide, the
citizens began to believe we were to have
a re-Union irileed.

In tlie course of time the property of

there being nobody left in England who
wants so much money, a -lot of Ameri
cans have set up claims thereto and ail
the " claimants met in J L i.'a Ic'phi.-i not
Ling since "to see what they could do."
The New York Ihrntd telis it thus:

the statistics of their conduct in the

enjoy the privilege. It gives the results
of sixtv-six elections, showing that outof
every lOC'O women registered. 5(t went
to the polls, as compared with .ro4 out
of every 1000 men registered. The les
son of those elections is more striking
when the actual figures are given Out
