Biliy is a gru-v-t-widofrer now, and says lie thought to disguise himself and fool some of the fair sex but fail ed most ignobly. Improvement. M. Schnellbacher, not to be busted by : little game of winrt, has re-modeled his shop, put a new roof on it and ex tended it 21 feet in the rear, making a handsome roomy work shop, where Bil ly Hassler can fix up the wagon3 and buggies to his heart's content. Mike has enterprise enough for four dutch tin and ougbt to do we!! thi summer. One- Hundred Russian? passed through here on Thursday bound for Sutton and Beatrice. What a pity Cass County could not get a little of this emigration, Where's your local board of trade Emigration or something. There are more grass widowers in this town just now than wo ever saw before to the acre. The only approxi mation is in Black Hills widows, they are pretty thick too. Mr. Lalor the Engineer of the C. B. & Q. It. K. Company left this after noon for Burlington for more instru ments and supplies. Tm;B.& M.P.U.is bringing in a great many new comers this spring and should the crops turn out as good as they now promisewe shall have an im mense immigration to this state next vear. Alex.Schiegel returned from Dead wood and Rapid City Tuesday evening. He reports old Plattsmouthians well and doing well. We call attention to the adver tisement of E. T.

Teachers' Examination is omitted this week. Let all the teach ers in the county attend the Institute next wee!: without fail. G. B. Cr.iprr.x, Co. Sup't. Mr. Lalor, the Engineer of the B. & M. in Iowa, has been here several weeks surveying on both banks of the Missouri river. The surveys are very accurate and the computations as to feasibility of building a bridge here will be very fine. It really looks like business this time and we think be fore many months roll round Platts mouth can gratify its eyes with the sight of material on the ground for the great Missouri River bridge so long anticipated. Mr. E; D. Stone a lawyer from Mil wauke, Wis., has lately settled among us. He will otnee with D. If. Wheel er for the present. Mr. Stone brings good testimonials and letters from friends the IIkkald is acquainted wi;h. We hope he may find Platts mouth a good place, to stop at and that he may be as successful in 1 i: piofe sion as his heart cou'.d desire. One thing certain he can't find any harder lawyer here, if names go fir anything. Jas. Hall's stable was blown over in the gale of the 20th and seven hors es mashed down lhv, strange to say jwii uninjured ar.d one killed out right. 1 1 is son iy years old was also under the stable hiving refused to leave his team when the storm blew up. He lay down beside a big mare and when he saw daylight through an opening crawled to it and came out un harmed. Mr. Wettencamp reports his wind mill blown to atoms and other damages such as wind mills blown over and shedding in ihe neighborhood of Eight Mile. Hon. S. M. Kirkpatrick called on the IIlualu Monday, and we had quite achat. Mr. Kirkpatrick is a man of great information, and his conversa tion is always worth attending to. The Herald is pleased to have him call, and pleased to hear his opinions on matters and things, though often not agreeing with him. Among other things he informs us that Mr. James Boyd re ported the article in our constitut'on on railroad matters, considered so un favorable by the Omaha Herald and Republican. Mr. K. thinks if this sec tion will drive all roads out of Nebras ka so good a democrat as Dr. Miller ought to have let Mr. Boyd, who is also a good democrat, know of it before he reported favorably on such a measure. We saw a small boy taking his first barefoot walk yesterday. While he could go in the grass it was glorious fun and he pranced and danced and surveyed those little feet in high glee. Then he started up the hill walking rather more gingerlybut getting up at last he played around the hillside for a little while and then essayed to come home. The around had grown hot and his feet had begun to feel the effect of previous roughnesses. More slowly he took each successive step, and at last, tlie crosswalk reached he paused took another step, sought a smooth pl;:ce took one more and bent over, twisted his feet to one side, took another and gave vent to a little bit of aery; took one more, winced, twisted, tried it again and gave a little larger cry, which grew louder at each success ive step until the end of the cross-walk leached it had deepened into his full capacity for roaring. Then he made a desperate dash for the gate a few steps off, endeavoring to make the sides of his feet do duty for the soles, and dis appeared to tell all his woes to mamma. We turned to our desk remembering the days when to go barefoot was our greatest delight ;md how we had to hide our shoes and stockings in the bushes on our way to school and put them on again before we got in sight of home, in order to obtain the coveted pleasure. TIIE FOURTH I At Plattsmouth they fired 101 guns in the morning, hada base ball match between the Clipper nine and the Snyder Guards. The Clippers got 27, the, Guards 17. The Sportsmen's Club had a grand glass ball shooting tournament. Sam Long won first prize in the firis match, Billy Jones in the second one, and Billy Wells in the third. Then on the 4th, Osborne and Long tied; Wells and Jones on 2d, and Chapman and OTtourke 3d, and Dr. Jones got away with the red ribbon. In the afternoon all the Masons and their wives went up to Bel'evue to the Knights Templar's grand encamp ment and drill. In the evening they bad a very hand some display of firework s, from High School Hill, and a grand ball still later At Louisville our old time friend Prof. Martindale acted as Master of Ceremonies, Kev.Mr. Diffenbacker was the Orator of the day. Boss printer, Carl Seeley, read the "Declaration" and they had a good time generally. The brass band of Louisville and the singers both deserved great praise. The day was fine and when we left the Louisvilleans they w ere putting in the happiest kind of n old fashioned fourth. The Hekald met an old friend Mr. Trueman Hall out there for the first time in years; also Co. Com missioner Ramsey, with whom we shook hands across the bloody chasm, in sight of the stars and stripes just for the fourth you, know and we are indebted to Mr. and Mrs. Mar tindale for their hospitalities. We missed two men from I,. Maj. Xoyes and Cap. Hoover what's the matter. At Eight Mile they celebrated in the good old fashioned style, out doors in the woods, by Sunday Schools. Rev. Mr. Hudson was the orator of the day. Mr. D. S. Draper read the Declaration, ! and singing bv the various Sunday Schools interested, and had a good cele bration generally. Personal. I. A. Cora, of Union Milis went East on Friday last. T. W. Blackburn surnamed "Lino" is now Traveling for the Omaha Repub lican and in that capacity visited the town with seven hills, commonly call ed Pl.itts i out. Mrs. M.icMurphy, left for Wauke sha, Wis., on Monday to visit friends and drink the famous waters of Boss Dunbar Spring. Magnolias. A sister of Mrs. Jno. Waterman has sent our Mrs. Waterman some very handsome Magnolia blossoms, from southern Alabama. The magnolia tree grows to the height of 100 feet, and the flowers in full bloom, sometimes mea sure 0 inches across. The leaves all fall when the llowers bloom, which at first thought would seem strange, but when we reileci that the leaves are of ten IS inches lo:g. wo see that they ought to fall in order that we may see the llower. A magnolia tree in full bloom is one of the grandest sights in the world to those unaccustomed to their beauty, size and fragrance. When the Spaniards first landed at Florida the magnolias were out in their grand eur, and they named it Florida the land of Flowers. In our climate we can only put the buds in water and get a partial devel opment of the magnificent ll.iwer. PUPILS TO HE rRtUlOTZI) In th?

Minutes of last meeting read and ap proved. It was held by Mayor and Council that this meeting was not authorized to transact any other busi ness except levy tax for the year 1877 therefore the Mayor made out a call adding "and to transact any other busi ness deemed necessary." The special committee which had previously been appointed to ascertain and report the amount of tax necessary to be levied in the various funds, made a report in the form of an ordinance which will be found in another column of this paper. Moved to accept the report of the committee and to suspend the rules that the ordinance might be read, 1st 2d and 3d times and put upon its final passage. Councilman Dovey moved an amend ment that it bo taken up a section at a time and disposed of. He was opposed to the ordinance in its present form, and thought our levies to high for some of the funds at least, and read letters from Omaha, Neb. City and Lincoln, showing that their levies did not exceed from 20 to 30 mills on the dollar all told while. this ordinance called for a levy of 4 mills on the dol lar. Councilman Vallery made a few re marks sustaining Dovey's reviews. Councilman Cushing and Wells were in favor of passing the ordinance as reported, arguing that the city liabili ties could r.ot be met with any less val uation or levy. The vote was then taken on the amendment as follows yeas, Dovey, Vallery and Plummer. Nays, Cushing, Wells, Pepperburg and Guthman, Amendment lost. Vote on the origi inal motion was taken and resulted as follows: yeas, Cushing, Wells, Pepper burg, Plummer and Guthman; nays, Dovey and Vallery carried.

Finance committee reported the re sults of their investigation of the books and vouchers of ex-Treasurer Winter stine embracing amounts received and expended and amounts on hand in the various city funds; but as Treasurer's report has already been published, it is not nescestary to recapitulate; repo. 4 of committee adopted.
