When about half way over he slipped and dmpped his tool box on tho ice. He climbei down after his box. and concluded to go the balance of the way en the ice. Some holes had been cut for filling in rock around tho piles, and it being pretty dark, Jim walked into one of them, and but for the timely aid of ono of the bridge men who happened to bo with him he would have been food for the fishes before this.

County Superintendent. Opinion of a Visitor. I was agreeably surprised to find Plattsmouth much pleasanter than re port had led me to believe. Owing to tho incomplete condition of tho bridge just constructed at this place, I was obliged to remain over night, and, meeting an old friend in the person of Prof. E. T. Simens, I was constrained to stay and enjoy the hol iday season at Plattsmouth. The town must, I think, possess some refined attractions for every oth er visitor and tho town is full of them is a professor. Had I passed through town without partaking of the generous hospitality of her people, and not seen for myself the intelli gence, thrift and energy of her citi zens, I Bhould have felt that the sneers of her sisters were just. I found Friend Simons filling the position of Professorship of Classics in Neb. College, the same position he oc cupied at Albany, and wag pleased to learn of his success in the State of his adoption. With much pleasure I wish Platts mouth many happy Holidays. V. The Doy Who Fell Flat. (We republish this from some exchange, as warning to PlatWuioutU's urchins :) Which he was a small boy. Aud he went out to sleigh, With a flondlata-like joy. All who came In his way ; Oa the street which Inclined and was icy, lie coasted the whole of the day. lie had brol.cn ten arms. And of Ires quite a score ; And ablaze with these charms. He kept aking for more ; And the heads he had cracked were past counting : The sidewalks were covered with sore. But a terrible fate Overtook this small boy. Which with tears I relate Though the tears are of joy ; And I hope he went straight up to Heaven. Or else where ne sled can annoy. For he steered his sled straight On a fat man. who dropped With a ton or so weight On this boy, who just pupped With a bang, as he flattened completely 'Neath that mountain of flesh which w: stopped.

Among those wjio received yester day, were Mrs. McLaughlin and ladies. Mrs. Jonathan Wise and ladies, Mrs. MacMurphy and ladies, Mrs. Jno. Waterman and ladies, Mrs. Dr. Chap man and ladies, Miss Anna Vallery, and the Ladies at the Red Ribbon room. All had numerous callers, and en joyed themselves very much. A num ber of the young gentlemen among, whom were Tbed. Livingston, Myron Wheeler, Master Pollock, Ilcrold and others, whose names we do not know, made theirrf calls, very gallantly, yesterday. The "eat, drink and b merry" crowd with their old sled, advance agent, Geo. Washington nardeater, (colored) and their big card made a good deal of sport, and it was very well done in deed, boys. Altogether it was a hap py New Year for most of us, and one long to be remembered on account of the general good feeling and sociabili ty of the day, but more particularly as the day on which specie resump tion takes place and the United States becomes once more a sound financial Nation. After two previous attempts to chronicle the wedding of Mr. G. . Thomas and Miss Sallie Wright, we do hereby announce that the aforesaid couple were duly and truly joined in the holy bonds of wedlock, at St. Luke's Episcopal church, on Friday evening last by Rev. II. B. Burgess, after which their friends had the opportunity of congratulating them at the Masonic Festival. The bride was becomingly arrayed in a drab princess dress, drap ed with smilax. ro3es and other white blossoms, natural (lowers; and the groom well we didn't notice his dress so much as we did his happy looks Here's to their good health, and may they live long aud prosper." Settlement Notice. All persons owing me for one year and over take notice. The account must be straightened up between now and the 10th, of January 1873. or I will sue and collect by lw such ac counts as remain unsettled. Remem ber I mean this.

It is told of Mr. Spurgeon that af ter his congregation had sung the first verse of a hymn on a recent Sunday morning ho made them sing the other verses more quickly, remarking that this is not a funeral." 'Do you say your prayers regularly every night and morning?' asked a sympathetic lady of a little shoe-black, to whom she had just given a trifle.

Urss.-r. ased three years, six. inontin and len days. The f nnera.1 took place Sunday luoruiug at the Mt. Pleasant Church. With real heartfelt sorrow and sympathy for the sorely afflicted par ents we chronicle the death of their little daughter Flora, the sweetest of the flowers in their garden of girls. No one who has visited Mr. Hes3er's grounds will forget the little one who trotted round so prettily from one flow er to another, occasionally placking and offering a blossom to the visitor with a shy look out of the large brown eyes that rendered the little gift a very pleasant one. The writer particularly remembers a day last autumn when in company with several others a visit was made to the grounds; the autumn flowers were in their full glory and lit tle Flora flitting among them indus triously culled and presented to us all, Impartially, blossom after blossom, a shy pleased look rewarding our thanks ; now she is a bud in that far off garden where the unfolding is into a rarer, more beautiful blossom than e'er this earth could bring forth. Let this be your comfort, sorrowing parents, that the brightest and happiest life here can never compare with the blessed lot which awaits those little innocents.who have passed from our sight for a time and who have left behind theca all the trials, temptations and dangers which would assail them here. We neglected to make mention in our last issue of the death of the in fant child of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Mar this, which took place the morning of the 2th, the funeral being on Friday afternoon. Rev.
