Afton, Frontier Co., Keb., )
r '- December 13th, 1878. - J
Kd. IInAi: I arrived safel j homo
on the 10th ult., after nine days travel,
found all things (except corn piles, po
tato bins, &c, &c,) looking lovely.
Oar cattle have not been fed a mouth
full yet, and are almost without excep
tion, sleeked fat, how does that com
pare:.with afEaira ia Cass County?
There stock has been- fed probably 3
months, and' very many that I law,
looked poor and shabby.
"We find It rather plea3ant too, to
have plenty of fuel, tl that of the
best, although we have little use for
fires, except for cooking, as the weath
er is very warm and pleasant.
- Found aome new settlers, and good
prosptct of more.
There seems to be a general desire
and determination, to "give the hop
pers one more crop.". We have strouj
hopes of raising a crop of corn next
year, as we have secured seed of the
gquaw - corn, : which is nearly proof
against them. Some people confonnd
this with the Sanford, Yankee, King
Phillips, and other early varieties, but
.it is very different, there are two pure
varieties, the white, and the blue or
' black, they have very broad kernels,
and small cobs, and is very productive.
I bought seed about one half milo
north of Juniata, in Adams Co., it has
ben raised there successfully for three
years, while this last summer a field of
yellow field corn, some forty acre3, was
all taken, this man raised a large field
of squaw corn, right alongside,, only
now and then finding an ear eaten in
to a little. We found sever?.l others
who had succeeded equally well.
We expect to start our school next
Monday, having engaged Mr. B.F. Ow
en, brother of Prof. I. J. Owen, both of
this place, to teach. We look hopeful
ly forward to a brighter future for our
, settlement. And remain,
Yours truly, E. S. Child.
A BABY SHOW IN TEXAS.
The baby show took place yester
day afternoon at the Pagoda on the
Fair Grounds, and in the second story
of it, which, by the way, reminds one
ef the hurricane-deck of a steamboat,
and the number and violence of the
Bqualls did not go far to dispel the il
lusion. In order to encourage Mr.
Samuel liennett, who provided the
prize perambulator, about nineteen ba
bies had put in their appearances.
These said babies, in the goodness of
their hearts, had also brought their
tnoihers alon;, and these ladies seemed
te take as much interest in the show as
the babies themselves. We suppose
the babies brought their mothers along
to keep them out of mischief. Beside
the babies and the young mothers,
there were quite a namoer of ladies
and gentlemen present who were not
babies, and had not bettn babies for
some time, who came because they
once had been babies, and wished to
Cad out if the human race was not de
teriorating. There were various styles of babies
there. There was the serene, contem
plative baby, that quietly devoured the
landscape with its eyes. When that
kind of a baby grows up he becomes a
heavy taxpayer, and accumulates real
estate, and is regarded, and justly, too,
as highly respectable. Then theie w;i3
the disorderly bab that punches its
mother in the nose, and snatches every
body who comes near it baldheaded,
and is as disorderly as a cage full of
wildcats. In after life that style of
baby climbs the ladder of fame as a po
liceman or as a desperado. There we
noticed, too, the smiling baby. It made
friends with perfect strangers twenty
yards distant. It would take an earth
quake to stop that kind of a child from
crowing. When th.it kind of child
grows up he becomes popular, and is
fleeted Justice of the Peace, or United
States Senator like Gov. Coke. Then,
too, there was the hungry infant that
called for the bill of fare. When that
child becomes fully developed, mental
ly and physically, it becomes contem
plative, joins the ministry and becomes
a terror to spring chickens. There
were several other styles of baby, but
we can't devote so much space to small
fry. We have uot mentioned how the
female bab'es would turn out on ac
count of the uncertainty f the sex.
There was some difficulty in obtain
ing judges to pass on the infants.
Whenever a gentleman was requested
to act a3 a judge he was singularly
unanimous in refusing to bring down
oh himself the wrath of the babies who
might not get the perambulator. As
it was absolutely certain that there
would not be les3 than seventeen of
those enraged cnerubs, we do not blame
them so much after all. Besides. these
insulted little cubs have mothers, fath
ers and other relatives. No wonder
there was a certain unwillingness to
intrude.
At last five heroic men were found
to act as judges.
The mothers seated themselves in a
circle, with their infants on their laps,
the judges made the round on trem
bling limbs, gazed falteringly at each
infant, and then, with blanched faces
consulted hurriedly together, cast their
ballots, looking over their shoulders at
the determined faces of the mothers,
and then hurried down the stairs and
out of the pagoda, and are by this time
doubtless safe in some country that
has no extradition treaty with the Uni
ted States. It was understood that the
awards would not be called until the
judges had ten minutes start.
We would like to make some extend
ed suggestions on this subject, but
space prohibits. If we were one of the
judges, no matter how rounded the
limb3 of an infant might be. no matter
how many dimples it sported on its
chin, it might smile line a lady with a
new set of false teeth, and might be
able to play one of Beethoven's immor
tal symphonies on a piano besides, it
would never get our vete unless its
father made affidavit that he had nev
er walked it about at night, and it was
regvilar and decorous in its behavior
toward all the memb?r3 cf the family.
That is the style of babv that ought to
be encouraged. That's the kind of a
babv that d-serves ppr-mbulators and
mugs and kind words in the papers.
It way have red hair and speckled com
plexion, but it is nevertheless the only
style of baby that is really a well spring
of joy to its parents and a credit to the
community. San Antonio UeralJ.
The history of Sultan Murad's fourth
wife is thus told. She is an English
"shop-girl. Her aunt had, a store. at
Pera, and summoned her niece from
England to help her in her trade. The
girl was pretty and attractive, and soon
learned the Turkish language. One
day. she went to the harem of Prince
Murad to deliver some articles which
. oae of his wives had ordered, aud sho
nover returned.
BROOK TROUT flSMNtf-
The Scuppernong Springs House is
now open for the accommodation of
fishermen and others. This llouse is
situated three miles from North Prai
rie Station, Waukesha County, Wiscon
sin, at the Scuppernong Trout Ponds,
where is to be found the best trout
fishing in the northwest. Conveyance
can always be had at the station.
Terms $2 per day. Trout always on
the table. Dead fish, 50 cents a pound.
For further information, address,
H. F. DOL'SMAN,
North Prairie Wis.
Go it, old boy! if you won't charge
us 50 cents a pound for what we can't
catch, we'll com up and fish next wm
mer. By the way, fish culture is something
some shrewd and enterprising man
ought to go into in Nebraska, It
would pay big when started fairly.
A Clear Case of Iutiuiidalioa.
They were playing poker, and Pomp
held a full hand. His eyes glistened
with conscious triumph, as he put up
a ten cent ante and gazed at his part
ner expectantly.
"I raise dat ten cents," remarked
Pete.
"I goes a quarter more," insinuated
Pomp.
"I stand you, and raise you anudder
quarter," replied Pete. '
"I continue on de war path and flops
down de last thirty cents,'" answered
Pomp, placing six nickels on the table.
'I kivcrs the pile and calls you," re
marked Pete.
"Full band!" said Pomp turning his
cards. "What you got?"
"A pair, and de game am undecided."
"What's dat? Undecided? Dis yer
chile takes the pile."
"Not by a long chalk. Dis case will
now be referred to the returnin' board,
who will examine into de partickelars.
Dar's plenty more good cards in de
pack, and why didn't I get em? Dar's
been intimidation and fraud.and mean
while de returnin' board take posses
sion of de spoils," and Pete reached
out his hand.
Then the other side denied the right
of the board to meddle, and when the
reporter left the terrible demon of civ
il war was dancing a wild dance in the
neighborhood, and a policeman was
marching up to mediate with a club.
THE SAFEST IN VES1'J1E iTS.
The great havoc which the recent fin
ancial depression.of three years'contin
uance,has wrought among investments
of almost every class, is attracting
more and more the attention of think
ers as well as of practical men. It is
curious enough that, of all kinds of in
vestors in this country, those which
have suffered least are the only ones
about whom there has been much clam
or lately; the insurance companies, and
especially those concerned with life in
surance. These companies have a great
m iny millions of dollars of the people's
money put away in investments which
are regarded as permanent. Now
while, since September 1873, railroads
have been suspending dividends by the
score, and going into default on their
bond3; while telegraph companies have
lost half their profits; while manufac
turing enterprises in general have been
hovering between bare existence and
utter failure, while mining corpora
tions have forfeited their credit and
prestige; and while private business in
almost every mercantile branch has
been at last decimated by bankruptcy,
the whole amount of insolvency among
the life insurance compiiies has involv
ed less than one-sixteenth part of the
business. While the aggregate mark
et value of the salable -real estate of
the country has actually fallen full
forty per cent, the value of the invest
ments of these, companies, most of
which are secured upon real estate in
some form, has increased, and the en
tire amount of losses which they have
suffered by the depression is a small
and insignificant pecentage of what
they Jnjva in hand.
This fact deserves especial attention,
inasmuch as the failure, or partial or
technical failure, of the "Continental
Life" of New York has given the pub
lic a very different impression. It has
been hastily reported that this compa
ny failed because of its losses in mort
gaged investments, caused by the fall
in real estate, and that the same cause
has largely impaired the securities of
other similar companies. Neither as
sertion is true. The company in ques
tion failed by the grossest mismanage
ment, and could not have stood if ttiere
had been no fall in real estate whatev
er. Its losse3 by failing mortgages
have been insignificant, and even thede
have been, if current report is true,
such ah ought to have been avoided by
them, and have been avoided by other
companies.
The whole secret is this: The life
companies have loaned their money on
land and houses, at from thirty to six
ty per cent of their value. The larg
est companies have never habitually
loaned more than forty per cent of a
low cash valuation. They loan only
on improTcd property where actual
rental ia ample security for taxes and
interest. Thus, even the most terrible
depreciation in real estate, even a pan
ic which should destroy half its value,
would leave their interest unharmed.
N such violent fluctuations have ever
been known in this country, in the val
ue of land and houses, as could serious
ly impair the security of these invest
ments. We arc doubtless now .approaching,
or have reached the end of the most
trying period in our financial histors.
As matters clear up and business skies
brighten, there will be a gradual recov
ery of every branch of industry and
commerce. Hut the first to rise and
the surest to advance will be those
which have best endured the strain.
The fact that the life insurance com
panies have suffered least of all the
great interests of I he country can not
but direct attention to the secret of
their extraordinary security. If we
are not mistaken, the confidence of the
pub! ic, of trustees, investors and Courts
iu real estate mortgage invcstmnts. is
sure to bo greatly strengthened by the
experience of recent years in this coun
try. Boston Journal.

The different editions of the Sun during the
next year will be the same as during the year
that has just p;tssed. The daily editions will
on week days be a sheet of four pafres, and on
Sundays a sheet of eiaht paces, or so broad col
umns ; while the weekly edition will be a sheet
of ei;ht paues of the same dimensions and char
acter that are already familiar to our friends.
The Hun will continue to be the ctrenuous ad
vocate of reform and retrenchment, and of the
substitution of statesmanship, wisdom, and in
tegrity for hollow pretence, imbecil. ty and fraud
in the administration of public sifU'.'is. It will
contend for t lie government of the people by
the oeonle and lor the people, as opiosed to
government by frauds in the ballot-box and iu
the counting- of votes, enforced by mililar vio
lence. It will endeavor to supply its readers a
body now not far from a million of souls with
the most careful, complete, and trustworthy ac
counts of current events, and will employ for
this purpose a numerous and carefully selected
staff of reporters' and correspondents. Its re
ports from Washington, especially, will be full
accurate, and fearless ; and it will doubtless
continue to deserve and enjoy the hatred of
those who thrive by plundering the Treasury or
by usurping what the law does not give them,
while it wiil endeavor to merit the confidence
of the public by defending the rights of the peo
ple against the- encroachment of unjustified
power.
The price of the dally Sim will be 53 cents a
month or t.50 a year, post paid, or with the
Sunday edition 87.70 a year.
The Sunday edition alone, eight pages, Sl.SO
a year, post paid.
Ti:e Weekly Sun, eight pages of sc broad col
umns, ill be fiiir, islied during 1877 at the rate
of l a year, postpaid.
The benefit of this large reduction from the
previous rate for the Weekly can be enjoyed by
individual subscribers without the neces-ity of
making up clubs. At the same time, if any of
our friends choose to aid in extending our circu
lation, wc sh tll be grateful to them, and every
eucli person who sends us ten or more subscrib
ers from one place will be entitled to one copy
of the paper for himself without charge. At
one dollar a year, postage paid, the expenses of
paper and printing are barely repaid ; aud. con
sidering tUe size of the sheet and the nualily of
its contents, we are confident the people will
consider the Weekly Sun the cheapest newspa
per published in the world, and we trust also
one of the very best. Address,
