Mr. Robert Metteer gives us some
very interesting statistics regarding
the economy of buildii.g barns. Please
read these facts, farmers, and then pon
der on them.
On 1.2U0 bushels of wheat Mr. M,
saved 24 cents per bushel, or and
on 800 bushels of oats, SG4, making
8372 saved in one year by having a
barn and granary to store and keep the
grain in good condition until the best
time to market.
He built a very comfortable barn
that answered the purpose fairly for
and estimated that he saved the
first year, towards paying for it this
neat little sum.
Our farmers let corn, grain and ma
chinery ro to waste fearfully in this
State. "We know, they say, we have no
money, but rough sheds, and hay shel
ters, at least, could be put up for a
very small amount in cash and would
save dollars in grain and wear and
tear of machines.
AN Obl FASHIONED TIME.
A gentleman who occasionally acts
as Deputy Xasby in our P. O. says
there is one thing he does "admire" and
that is ta have a lady come in on a
cloudy day with three thicknesses of
veil over hsr face and peremtorily
demand. "Is there anyting here for
m;?" Its so easy to tll who vie is,
you know.
Our readers will remember that there
was quite an excitement over in the
country bordering on Cedar Creek and
Turkey Creek, over a- certain case
wherein a woman, and a baby, and a
Coroner's inquest, and the doctor's, and
some lawyers, and the neighbors all
flourished. The woman came to the
poor house, staid awhile, and after con
siderable fuss on both sides, her hus
band coaxed her to return to her liege
lord and master, and they both did re
turn to their Cedar Creek home. The
neighbors felt so much honored by the
advent of these people that they all
turned out on Tuesday night and gave
them a "ehivari," a good one tin
horns, cow bells, old pans, Sec, Sec Mr.
Schlagel couldn't sleep, so he went up
to see what the matter was, and before
long all the old folks in the neighbor
hood had turned out, sleep being im
possible. Some parties from the house
came out and stoned the young rascals
who were making night hideous, but
furthermore this deponent saith not.

"With five exceptions, every Demo

"This is not at all surprising to us, but
it is a fact which the demagogues who
have been trying to drive the Farmers'

"We are getting considerable noto

A good looking young man has been
playing woman, in Otsego, X. Y. His
her excuse is she couldn't get work
as a man, and so he dressed up in his
Bister's clothes, and had no trouble
alnuit getting work, only somehow they
always would find out she was a man
and then he got discharged. It has
caused some excitement there, and is
he first case we ever remember to have
heard of where a man went into wo
man's clothes to obtain work. The
other way Li often resorted to for that
purpose.
The trouble in Arkansas, over the
Govcrship seems to have come to a head
at last. An election for Governor was
held in 1872, the candidates being Mr.
Baxter and Mr. $ rooks. The Legisla
ture declared Jiaxter the lucky man,
and Mr. Drooks appealed to the courts,
and after a long fight they decided in
las favor. In the meantime Baxter
had been quietly ruling as Governor
or two years until this order. Brooks
has seized a portion of the government
buildings and property, and Baxter is
intrenched in the rest. Both factions
are enrolling troops and frantically ap
pealing to Washington for aid.

COUNCIL PROCEEDING;.
Saturday, April 18, 1874. .
The Mayor and Council having taken
their seats the Mayor's new message
was read as follows:
Gentlemen of the Council :
"With the commencement of another
municipal year, it is my duty to call
your attention to such matters, con
nected witli your duties as guardians
of the interests of this city as are like
ly to come before you during the pres
ent year.
revenue.
In the matter of revenue, I would
urge upon you to enforce the law, and
if necessary, compel the officers whose
duty it is to collect all monies due the
city, to a prompt and faithful per
formance of their sworn duties, and
especially so in the case of the Treas
urer, whose books in past years show
an excess of delinquencies, in .all proba
bility occurring as much through neg
ligence on his part as on that of tax
payers. FINANCES.
I must insist on your unceasing aU
tention to the Finances of your city.
With a considerable amount of out
standing warrants against your Treas
ury, it behooves you to economize in
the most rigid m nner, and to expend
no monies whatever for new works of
improvement, unless the same are im
peratively demanded and petitioned
for by a sufficiently large number of
citizens.
Common honesty and fair dealing
demand that you should pay what the
city owes before incurring any addi
tional expense, and for this reason I
feel that I cannot too strongly urge
upon you the necessity of constant
watchfulness to the end that your ex
penditures should not exceed your in
come. No monies should be borrowed from
one Fund to meet a deficiency in an
other; but your course should be to so
husband your rectources, without inju
rv to the "welfare of the city, that you
may be enabled to meet every obliga
tion incurred by your acts. Your
Treasurer and Clerk should be by or
dinance reqired to make at least semi
annual statements of the financial con
dition of the city, and such ordinance
should compel a f ullv itemized and de
tailed account of all expenditures and
receipts.
IMPROVEMENT.
From what has been said in refer
ence to expenditures, it will not be ex
pected that I should ask your atten
tion to any needed improvements. I
.will simply point out to you those
works and repairs wmcn nave aireauy
leen before your honorable body and
been urged upon you by outside press
ure. WASHINGTON AVENUE
Unquestionably requires your atten
tion ; but 1 recommend to you the sim
ple repair of any at present impassable
joints. This is'the second great thor
oughfare over which a very large pro
portion of the produce of the county
reaches your city ; . but inasmuch as
several other streets open from it. lead
ing into town, you may find it advisable
to defer any action it, until such time
as vour treasury will warrant the out
lay". THE HIGH SCHOOL (iKOUNDS
Demand your consideration. The very
elegant building which you erected
bust summer, is three and one-half fee,t
below the. surface on the west side,
while all around it, on the square, are
; innumerable patches of brush. While
1 feel that these grounds should be
graded so as to give a gentle slope in
every direction from the building, and
afford a decent play-ground for the pu
pils, I cannot recommend any exieudi
tures in that direction, farther than
simply to insure complete drainage
away from the foundations of the
building, together with sufficient plow
ing over the ground to destroj' the
brush upon it.
f-IDE WALKS.
A side walk from Sixth street to
Tenth street, along the south side of
Main street, involving the removal of
a strip of earth south of the present
cut, is a much needed improvement,
and I now only call your attention to
it for the reason that the hundreds of
children attending the nigh School
have no protection from the mud iu
rainy weather, over that portion of the
: approach. to tte school. Whether
your honorable body decides lo make
this improvement or not. it is my duty
to call your attention to it. Sidewalks
in other portions of the city should not
be constructed unless a majority of the
citizens owning lots and traveling
along the streets sought to be improved
demand them, through a memorial to
your honorable body.
BRIDGES.
All the bridges Aithin the city
should be carefully watched by your
street Commissioner and kept in good
order, ami each of them should be sub
stantially and neatly railed.
STREET CROSSINGS.
Xo more should be expended on the
street crossings than is barely neces
sary to secure decent transit over them.
CEMETERY.
The Public Burial Grounds should
be fenced, and I recommend that you
secure these grounds against stock,
running at large, by using the present
i north fence for repairs on the other
three sides, and that a decent fence and
prate be constructed on the north side.
The funds pertaining to these grounds
are nearly sufficient for this purpose,
and out of these alone should the work
! be done.
Finally, I recommend the passage of
an ordiuance prohibiting the expendi
ture of any monies or the ordering of
any work in behalf of the city, except
by resolution of your honorable body,
and so framed that the mover and sec
onder of said resolutions, together with
name of the party or parties ordered
to do any such work, shall be made a
matter of record, together with the
names of all the members of the Coun
cil present at the passage of said reso
lution, given by yeas and nays. By
this course the responsibility for all
expenditures will be readily obtainable
from your records, and gratuitous alle-
allayed.
TUKLIC SCHOOLS.
Under the act of the Legislature,
passed and approved February lth,
1802. th control and management of
! the Public Schools of your city were
conferred upon your honorable body.
The duties attendant uon this Coun
; cil, as a Board of School Cominission
i crs, are equally as onerous and im
portant as the ordinary duties of the
j Council heretofore have been. Vour
j best efforts and unremitting attentiion
i are invited in this direction. Already
you have inaugurated a new era in the
education of our youth, and it is my
sincere trust that you will continue a
vigilant watchfulness over these im
portant interests. Let none but com
petetent teachers be employed, and let
no false delicacy deter you from re
moving any who are not so. Exercise
rigid economy in all your expenditures
for school purposes; but always have
regard to the high objects in view, and
do not permit that economy to be a
false one.
In this connection permit me to call
your attention to the fact that the up
per hall of the High School will re
quire to be furnished before the first
Monday in next September. It is for
you in your wisdom to decide upon the
character of that furniture and its
amount, and I leave this matter in
your hands, in the full confidence that
you will act wisely and well for the
best interests of all concerned.
In conclusion, gentlemen of the
Council, I rely upon your sound judg
ment for support in any emergency
which may arise, and let us strive hon
estly and faithfully together to so man
age the important trusts confided to
our care, that our labors may meet
with the hearty approval of those who
have honored us by placing in our
hands the guardianship of our city's
welfare. Very respectfully,
Robt. It. Livingston,
Mayor.

BOOK .NOTICES
Harper's and the Galaxy for May
have arrived, and we give a portion cf
their contents:
The Galaxy for May is bright, fresh,
and spring-like; full of smiling land
scape and vivid figure painting, bird
like pottry and cheerful conversation,
with dashes of humor, pathos, wisdom
and sentiment, which combine to make
it as delightful as the month of May
itself.
In the leading article Mr. Albert
Rhodes tell.s how Americans conduct
themselves in Paris, what Paris says
of them and thinks of them and does
for them; and we are led to the con
clusion that the American citizen is
not seen to the best advantage on for
eign soil.
Mr. Clemens Peterson contributes a
most attractive sketch of scenery and
character in Denmark, Sweeden, and
Norway. Hisdescriptions are as vivid
and picturesque as those of his famous
countryman, Hans ChristianAndersen.
"An Odd Piece of History" the
French Spoliation claims will be read
with great interest by everybody, and
especially by those who have had
American grandfathers.
THE MASS ACII I SETTS SEN ATOR.
After an almost interminable seige
of balloting the Massachusetts Legis
lature elected Wm. B. Washburne U.
j S. Senator in Cue place of C.'ias. Sum
ner, deceased.
The Omaha Republican says this of
him :
William B. Washburne, the Senator
elect was bom in Winehendon, Massa
chusetts, January a 1st, H20. He is
not a member of the Washburn family
distinguished in political history. The
new Senator is a graduate of Yale Col
lege. He has alwavs engaged in man-
I ufacturing. In ISoO he was elected to
the State Senate, and in 18.54 to the
Lower House. Subsequently he was
President of a bank. He was chosen
to represent his district in the Thirty
eighth Congress.and continued tofserve
until his election as Governor in 1871.
He was re-elected Governor in 1872 and
1873, and held the office at the time of
i his selection by the Legislature to suc
ceed the lamented Charles Sumner.
The Escaped Prisoners
We gave an account last week of
the ecape of Mc Waters and Crook from
jail, which was substantially correct
although the escape occured after our
paper was made up for press.
It is now known that they went out
of town on the "steam wagon road"' a
mile or two, in broad day light, and
then went north toMcWaters friends
in Wyoming. There they were provid
ed with necessaries for a long trip, and
were doubtless well out of the State
befon daylight next morning. It is
supposed that they have escaped into
Missouri.
The father and brother of Crook,
and a hostler in their Livery Stable,
were arrested on suipfcFon of having
aided the prisoners to-escape; but no
proof could be brought? against them
and they were- discharged; Neb. City
Now,-
The seals are easily captured; their
captors, the natives, reminding one of
butchers as they go into a stock-yard
to select and drivo out a batch of bul
locks, for the method of procedure is
precisely similar.
To the right and left of the breeding
grounds stretch sand-beaches, or some
convenient landing, upon which the
"holluschickie," or the bachelor seals,
lie by tens of thousands, extended in
every attitude assumed by them in fit
ful sleep or animated sport, and down
from the village to these -hauling
grounds'' come the natives, who, after
making a survey of the swarming myr
iads, step in among them and turn
aside from the masses two or three
thousand of the most eligible animals,
usually males of not over four years
old and not under two. This drove
which they have selected is driven to
the village as a flock of sheep would
be, the animals moving in a succession
of sudden starts, with frequent resting
spells, at the rate of about half a mile
an hour, provided the weather is cool
and foggy and the ground hard. Seals
can be driven at the rate of a mile an
hour under peculiarly favorable con
ditions of road and weather; but the
loss of life is great in a large drove, so
many falling senseless, gasping and
palpitating, some to rise again within
a few hours, and others dying at once.
Only four or five msnare required to
capture in this way a drove of from
one to even fifty thousand, did they
ever want so many; and the labor of
driving them overland to the salt
houses near the village is light, as the
seals move without resistance and re
quire but little urging, only it should
be constant and gentle. They string
themselves out in long files as they
travel, and a drove of four or five
thousand will stretch over a path more
than a mile in length. Henry W.

Meeting of the Illinois Republican Cen
tral Committee.
From the Inter-Ocean.1
The Republican Central Committee
of the State met yesterday at the Palm
er House at 2 o'clock p. m. Previous
to the regular session of the committee
an informal meeting of its members,
together with prominent Republicans
from all quarters of the State, was con
vened for the purpose of consultation,
with a view to inform the committee
of the State of public sentiment and of
the prospects for the ensuing campaign.
Almost every Congressional District
in the Siate was represented in the in
formal meeting, not only by members
of the committee, but by prominent
Republicans not officially connected
with the party organizrtion. Numer
ous speeches were made, full abstracts
of which are given in our local columns
recounting the proceedings of the meet
ing. These speeches were of the most
encouraging character, indicating that
the Republican party of Illinois is not
only as strong, bat stronger, than at
any period of its history. All the
speakers referred with confidence to
both the State and Congressional cam
paign of next fall as likely to result in
victory to the Republican party by
large majorities. The sentiment in
favor of an early opening of the cam
paign was very pronounced, and this
policy was subsequently carried into
effect by the committee, in resolving to
issue a call for the State Convention,
to be held at Spriuuiield on the 17th of
June next. At no preliminary meet
ing of the State Central Committee,
for many years, has there been a fuller
attendance or a more enthusiastic
feeling than dist'nguished the meeting
of yesterday.
