A friend hands us the following and asks to have it published. The rural Congressmen of the Demo cratic party are playing the very par ticular mischief. "You blow me up." says -Fernamly Wood to Kerr, "for not keeping em in hanu;uut what in blank can a fellow do with a set of blank blank pig-headed pumpkins who, when invited out to dinner, drink water out of their ringer-bowls, wipe their noses on their napkin and theu go to bed and blow the ctiH out?

The Pawnee Republican gave a good description of Pawnee County last week. AVe filed the paper. They have struck a four foot vein of coal iu Pawnee County. It was over laid by a hard sulphur formation. The Fremont Herald calls Dr. Mil-k-r "the flip-flop editor of the Omaha Herald," all on account of "iiarier gage." The Syracuse Reporter is a neat sheet from Otoe County, and is the first newspaper outside of Neb. City, in that County for many years. Alex. Stevens only weighs 08 lbs., and yet Speaker Kerr made him chair man of the committee on weights and measures. "What can we do with such u man. mmm Tin; Lincoln Journal ask us now, To find a rhyme for "silver ;" Why not do as the Journal does. Just take the shears and pilfer." Central City Courier. That'H a Stee('a)le-y joke. This is the way the Fremont Tri bune puts it to delinquents: "NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS.

Henderson, of St. Louis; wliiskj fame, it is said. Tilton, Mrs. Tilton, Susan It. Anthony, and Mrs. Moulton will be subpanaed as witnesses. K. M. Hungerford, editor of the lie publican Valley Sentinel, and one of the Regents of the University, died very suddenly on Monday night or Tuesday morning last. lie was a young man of unexceptionable char acter and good ability. The State and the editorial fraternity may well mourn his loss. A. C. Ilesing, one of the proprietors of the Staats Zeitung, Chicago, and candidate for County Treasurer last fall in Cook county, has been arrested for complicity in crooked whisky; also II. li. Miller, late County Treasurer nnd Jacob Rhemlat police commission er of Chicago. The city is all agog uk'ith the news. "We admire the reform in the civil service by the Democracy in the lower House. Competent and old time clerks and officials were removed without stint, to make place for new and untried men, whose only qualifications were that they are democrats. Xow here was a chance to show a true reform in Civil Service. How have they improv dit? - B Y POSTAL CAKD. Arias, Frontier. Co., Xeb, ( December 27th, 1873. f Herald: We are' having a most splendid winter so far; we have not had a rough or cold day for three weeks: can plow in sod or old ground. We have found a native lime here, that gives better satisfaction for in side work than lime from the rock. I ain trying it for outside work also; will report more fully in future. Our school started for a three months term on the 20th tilt.: fifteen scholars. More anon. from E. S. Child. THE COUNTY CO.UMlSSiONERS' COURT Met on Tuesday,and to-day Mr. Ramsey, the new Commissioner, took his seat with great eclat. The Herald had a notion of getting out the band and coaxing Geo. Smith to make a speech, but commissioner Arnold said that commissioner White aid that Mr. Clark said that the peo ple said we musif t do it. And so we lut on the brakes and Ilam-ey slid on to his three legged commissioner's stool as natural as if he had always be longed there. Seriously, Mr. Ramsey is a young man of good parts, some business tact, and they say a good democrat. We opine he is an.honest man, and a the country has great need of just such men at present, we most heartily wel come him to his new position, and shall cheerfully give him all the aid and encouragement we can iu helping to govern this county economically and impartially. Mr. Clark, the commissioner who re. tires, is - an old and well known citizen. He was elected from the then Weeping Water district. In the opin ion of the Herald, let who will, deny, he has made a faithful and capable officer. ing incumbents, has withstood a storm j . ....,1 Kunicf hirrp that, nnlv ! Ol ilDUSf, aiiiu uj"" -e " - "j the- best of characters could have stood up under, and we are proud to say he &rav5 en- un'iiH"3- Xext to service in the rebel army. nothing commends a man to the pres ent Democratic House of Representa tives, at Washington, so strongly for office, as the fact that he has been a Democratic member of previous con gresses. A few days ago it wa3 an nounced that one Democratic ex-Con gressman had been appointed "page" to speaker Kerr. It appears now that a second (Greene Adams) from the same state, has been appointed Assistant Chief Clerk of the House, while a third (John D. Young) has been placed on the roll as a messenger. Three Ken tucky ex-Congressmen in subordinate oflices in the Houses are doing well, and yet to the eternal disgrace of the party, the leader of the green-back-hard-mon- er Democracy of Illinois couldn t get the position of Sargeant at Arms, though -the candidate of the North western Democrats" for the position. Hut parties, like Republics, are evident ly ungrateful. Xo Union soldier need apply, but Democratic congressmen al ways supplied with office. III. Journal. More of the same from ;the Omaha Republican's Washington correspondence. tSEN'S. VIKQUAIX AND BRAKE have retired from the contests for place in disgust. They say the writings on the walls of the house seems to say, "Xo northern democrats need apply.'. When Vifquain first came here he was quite free iu showing the medal award ed him by congress for distinguished services in fighting under the starry banner. I told him then he was ruin ing his chances, but he couldn't see it. He sees it now. and with deep humility acknowledges that the men who fought against the life of the nation have car ried away the larger share of the spoils. Vifquain has ability and industry, and would have made a good officer or com mittee clerk, and as a Xebraskian 1 would like to have seen him successful iu his aspirations, but he fought on the wrong side to expect reward from the party he votes with. The Jolly, joking, genial Cox, to rule the House did risk the rocks. He strove and struggled to be speaker, but got laid out by Michael C. Kerr. And Randall ran a forlorn tilt, and told of blood he oft had spilt how high he'd borne the banner up; how deep he'd drank the bitter cup; defended grabs and made a stir; yet fools preferred that Mike C. Kerr; and e'en at first, Fernandv Wood, declared he'd rule the the "byet' for good. The battle raged, he lost his fur, and clearel the way for M. C. Kerr Chicago 1'ost & Mail. Unless the present Democratic Con gress makes the necessary appropria tion, there will be sorry time in the Surveyor General's department in this State. Already the wolves are begin ning to howl over the spoils, and oth ers are clamoring to get into the ring, and praying to our senior Senator, "give us this day our daily bread." North Platte Rejmblican. The gable end of a biscuit, or an inch of soda cracker will do us. A CHALLENGE ACCEPTER). Ritchey, editor of the Beatrice Cur rier, comes out with a challenge to skate against the State for fun or mon ey. All right Mr. Ritchey; the editor of the Hebron Journal never j et declined a challenge. We accept. According to the code of Honor we appoint the time and place. Time, June 1st, 1876.

C. of Xeb. "Xo." Editor Herald The Literary So cieties of Pleasant Ridge and Concord, hungering for amusement gave an ex hibition at the latter place on Thurs day evening. Dec. 2,3d.The school house one of the largest in the county, was soon filled to overflowing, and the ex hibition proved to be quite entertain ing. When we consider the time ta ken for preparation it indeed reflects great credit on the two societies. The programme consisted of decla mations, essays, oration?, and dialogues, and was ve"y pleasantly ended by the distribution of presents to the children of the two districts. The pleasure of some was considerably marred by the exti erne darkness of the night and by the rain which set in a short time af ter the entertainment began, thus com pelling them to remain all night in the school house. Literary Societies are something new in this community, but if the same interest is taken in the fu ture as in the past they cannot but re sult in considerable good. Pleasant Ridge and Concord return their heart felt thanks to the ladies and gentlemen who made the exhibition much more entertaining by the music which they furnished. Miss Flora Richardson the organist is to be especially commended for the excellent music she gave us The two societies contemplate giving another entertainment at no distant day, and hope to do much better than at the one recently given. Pleasant Ridge society meets every Friday evening, and in behalf of the members I extend a cordial invitation to the public generally. W. C. Showalter.
