We were It i-jfordable in many places, having a not present at the close of that meeting, J hard, gravel or stone bottom, wherever but a number of persona assured us that fche water runs over these rifHes. ingfro!d with which they announced that "the hundred acre wheat field looked the best this j-ear," or that eighty'm corn was doin remark' bly well." In several places we saw long lines of ex cellent stone fences, gieat, old fihioned barns and outhouses, orchards and fruit without stint or limit. If it is not a laud of plenty, flowing with milk and honey it is not for want of cows or bees either for there are plenty of both on the prai rie and in the yard.

We hare been thus particular in de ecribing the amounts of land owned and the good things of the country, not to gratify ourselves, nor yet the men that own them, but because our paper circu latcs far and wide, and we desire to let our Eastern friends know what a coun try there is here as well as to inform our old patrons north of the Platte how South Platte country looks. Everyday we learn that there is more and more of Nebraska - than we once dreamed, and feel confident that but few years can elapse ere wo will produce almost every thing that a great State needs within our borders. OIR RATII t'ATIO.V Grant and YtJItou Salnrdity Xijfht, the facts are, a very feeble cheer was given for Greeley & Brown, and three triumphant cheers for Grant. "Junius" is a very poor judge of facts, before his eyes, when he says Cass county will go Liberal ; also, if he is a native here, he deserves no creJit for yoking fun at Plattsmouth about the reunion, and stretches a point of fact to boot. Many soldiers from the country were here on that day, and at anyi rate, this city did her part nob'y and deserves credit for the endeavors to make it a pleasant, profita ble and sociabb time to those that did come. ,' ' lTlIKCOL.91 SEH8.

Mr. S. is a Vermonter, a splendid farmer, and owns 1200 acres of land, stretching through upland and dale for many and many a rod in every direction. Under his guidance we explored some of the rough parts of tbe valley, and for the first time in our whole life in NebiaLa, we heard Jthe grinding sound of pebbles and boulders beneath our buggy whclf. You must know that in our Northern Nebraska one can ride over whole counties argument combined, read the record of idneversteastoneintheroadbigenough the glorious past of the Kepublican We are satisfied 1 yes, more. It ex celled our utmost expectations. The Ke-unioj bit . recently before us, and the constant asseveration of kind hearted friends (?) that tbe Greeley element in Piattwmouth was strong, we almost distrusied our own judgment aud feared .that our ralifica tion oiu-'bt come out slim. We had re solved to tell the truth, if only ten men were present, but -it would have gme like pulling teeth to have done so, had the meeting proved a failure. One glance around the spacious hall on entering, dispelled our fears on that Fcnre, and we sat down contented. Aljout the same number of people were present as at Senator Tipton's speech, but 'there was a different clement pre vailing, we nngnt miss it widely in guessing at majorities in this, or any other countjv'but .there is tne thing we can hardly fail in; that is, taki::g the measure and temper of a crowd or an audience. We have "taken notes" be fore a sea of upturned faces too often to be badly fooled on these points, and these people were alive, ncrvj- tneir hearts were in their faces, and their sen timents beamed from their eyes. It was not a cold, critical crowd, come to view a rather notorious man, and to hear what he had to say for himself and his friends, but a company of companions, gatherad to hear their comrads in a good cause, reason of the words, the truth and the law Doctor Black called the meeting to or der, and introduced GEN. SILAS A. STRICKLAND. Loud cheering followed. The General squared himself, and then and there with a masterly flow of wit, humor and to throw at a cow. In '64 some Jersey friends came to visit us. We had busi ness up country, and taking a carriage at Omaha, we passed nonh through Washington and Burt counties, to the Omaha Agency. On returning, we came by Arizona bottoms. On our re turn to Omaha, they were profuse in description of their pleasure at the bcau- Party. Launching lrom this into the personal history and characteristics of Gen. Grant, he showed that this "quiet, persistent, reticent, little man had been successful in every effort or move he has made, so far in life ; " and that we had to thank his wisdom, prudence and cour age, for the fact that we have to-day a Country,' a Government and a Republi- f;f,,l pnnnrr nml mpnimno,! n nmirr. can uartv. He reviewed mm as a ing glory "What do you tLink, we have General, a? a President, and 6howed ridden over 150 miles and the carriage conclusively that he was one of the rare wheels never struck a stone." It was few of this world who rise equal to every true, and thev niiebt have ridden many occasion, and conquer, even circuni hundred more in some places, with a stances, in their onward march to sue 1 like result. In this valley, however, at a certain elevation, good lime stone is found in abundance, and crops out in the roads wherever they cross a spur of the bluff at the proper height. We paewd ovrr some high, mlling cess. He spoke of the unanimity with which ho waa nominated by representatives from all parts of this broad land, and that in November next, at psrlv roll call, by the votes of a satisfied The only colored men for Greeley. people, this "patriot and hero would be ! The Brown men. in the United States lived a purer, nobler life than Grant. Not a vice, not a crime could be charged justly, against him. And years after this when History makes up her record, by the aide of Washington, Jefferson. Madison and Jackson, would stand Gen. Ulysses S. Gkant. Cheers. The speaker then overhauled the hon esty and record of Mr. Greeley ; showed how he had been cn all sides of the fence one moment urging us "on to Richmond," and the next J-aying "Let her slide, we don't want the South, and can do without her." He had ued up I paper enough to cover the whole broad prairie of Nebraska, in abus:ng Demo crats, and hogsheads of ink, in reviling all their measures. (A voice in the crowd) "Prove that, where's your papers?'' "Stri?i ." paused not an instant, but retorted, ' Prove it, why man, it's par- of the history of the country. Where'd you come from?" Roars of laughter greeted this sally The speaker having earned glory enough for one night, after being repeatedly cheered, shortly gave way to the HON. T. M. MARQUETT. Slow and easy and lazy like. Marquert beiran. No person on earth could fell whether he n uitit to give out a hymn. preach a s-ernion, or only to tell a yum or two.

Swift and .-tromr as the current of old muddy, at high water mark, but clear as the purest mountain stream, the thoughts, the words, the id-a., leap from his lips, and you see pictured before you, like zig-zag li.trht- nin tracks on the stairv curtain behind him, the dark davs of Democratic mis- rul, the cowering, shivering slave bleed ing under a master's lash, and the haughty Southerner demanding hi.- State rights. The bloody battle field, the loathsome prisons of Libby and An dersonville j-tuud out for a moment to view. The citkn and kindly face of "Honest old Abe" appears on the curtain, aud pictured in vivid lines cf shining light you have the glorious record of the Old Repubican Party, again standing like a halo around the speaker's head. The Honorable gentleman also de scribed Grant's character and deeds, de nounced Sumner for his folly, and in re ply to the oft repeated charge against Grant that he desired a re-election, pointed to Sumner, himself, who has been re-elected for 25 years, and now should stand back and let 60tne other man in Massachusetts have a chance. He went through Senator Tipton's speech, and charges; said the Hon. Senator went down to Lincoln and tried to get re-elected as hard as anybody, and would probably be a candidate again. He explained the Georgia bill, that Tipton dwelt so much on, and stated that Mr. Dawes, leader of the House, a good Republican, prevented the Chor- penning claim from being allowed, and not this wonderful reform crew, Tiptou, Trumbull & Co. He did not choose to go backward for re form to a dead party ; tut rather forward with the party already in the van, once more he declared allegiance to the bona fide old genuine Republican party, and laugbe'l to scorn tho liberal dodge which meant sore heads trying to ride into power on the backs of Democrat", and Demo crats willing to carry them until they had gamed their points, when tn y wouli "buck" and dump their Liberal friends in the mud. Said he liked Greeley because he dressed like himself, despoiled of our most efficient and relia ble safeguard in the dangers wh:ch be set the paths of business enterprise.

If we had no Sabbath, it would be the duty of the State to ordain one; and a we have it, it is equally the dtit3' ofthe State to pro tect it, and confirm to the people the material and viral beticfits which it is so well calculated to secure. There are certain other facts connect ed with the observance of the Sabbath, in America which are quite a- well es tablished as the one to which we have al'uded to, the most prornint-n h, that the high morality and spirituality of any community depeuds uniformly on its, ob servance of the Sabbath. We do not leluv? thi-ie is a deeply reliinu cum m inity in America, of any naioo, tha; dnes not observe one day in seven as a day specially devoted to religion. The earnest Christian or Jewish workers everywr.erj are Sabbath keepers, in their sep ;ate ways and days. It is very well to talk about an "every-daj O-iri-' iai ty,' ' and better to possess and practice it; but there certainly is preciou-- little of it where the Sabbath i not oV - crvfd. The religious faculties, senti ments, and susceptibilities under ail schemes and systems of religion, are the subject of culture, and impeiatively need the periodical food and stimulus which come with Sabbath institutions and min istries. The prevalence and permanence of a pure Christianity in this country depend mainly on what can be done for them on Sunday. If the enemies of Christianity could wipe out the Sabbath 1 hey would do more to destroy the power of the religion they condemn than all the Renans and Strausses have ever done or can do.
