Dear Herald: It lias been -nie-tiiue since I have written to you,' but it has not been from lack of niiterial to write about, but more from innate laziness, so with this short apology I will give you a short sketch of events in this camp. Building has been unusually lively this fall, and of a better class than those erected iu the spring and sum mer. Our new Opera House, erected by Messrs. Tabor & Bush, is the larg est and finest structure of the kiad in the west, having a sealing capacity of 2500, being 100x150 leet by CO feet high, the lower part being used for stores. Last tug it was the formal opening, the play bciii the "Serious Family" We have hud several severe snow storms Iaiely, completely blocking up the road over the Mosquito Pass aud making it necessary fur the stage to go around by Weston 1'ass, a much long er distance. Even this route is bad, as one of the stages upset, instanly killing Rev. Mr. Pickett, ot Colorado Springs and severely wounding several other passengets. r reighting was al most entirely stopped tor a while anu all kinds of produce went up, hay brincino- five cents per punua ana oats seven cents, othei things in propor tion. . Last Saturday night there was a new deal in the usual course of affairs here. The footpads, &c, have been having it ali their own way ever since this has been a camp, holding up whu- ever.they seemed to think had money and at all hours of the day and night. But on hist Saturday two of them pointed their pistols in the face of a little German barber and ordered him to "hold up" his hands. He did so but in his riirht hand there was arevolvei There was a ramd interchange of shots and one of the thieves dropped dead and the other ran off with a bullet through his arm, but was soon al ter captured and lodged in Jail. Ihe bar ber escaped unscathed although four shots were fired at him. Sunday a collection was taken up and the plucky barber was presented wuh a gold watch, a nair of Colt's revolvers and S150 in cash. There was some taiK oi lynching the prisoner its an example. but the dav and night passed without anything unusual happening. But on Wednesday uisiht the vigilantes went to the jail and oveipiwei ing the offi cers, took out Chas. rattei son, the loot pad and Frodsham, a notorious char acter., and strung them to the rafters of an unfinished building adjoining the jail. They also posted a notice da the back of Frodsham warning thieves, &c, to beware as this was only a be gining, and ordering several persons, bv name, to leave the town, among them was P. A. Kelly, ex-Chief of Po- ice. All day Thursday the two bodies were viewed by crowds of individuals who cenerallv approved the action of the Vigilantes. ' The parties ordered 19 leave town have all expressed their determination to stay, and threats of revenge have been freely made, The thieves, gamblers, etc., who number over five hundred publicly known as that class, have formed an organiza tion in opposition to the Vigilants. jast night it was rumored that th- town would be burned and several cit izens hanged in retaliation and the wildest excitement prevailed. The Mayor swore in three hundred extra police and ordered out the three mili tia companies who patrolled the streets all night. The newspaper ofiices had armed guards in them "all night and proprietors and employes are all arm ed. The night passed quietly with on ly one alarm of fire and that acciden tal. Every man now goes armed, and the air is tilled with all sorts of ru mors. What the end will be no one knows. The Highland Guands and the special police are still cn duty bat a spark may precipitate, a reign of bloodshed and carnage. lhe princi pal danger that is feared is from the fire fiend as it is in the power of the roughs to utterly destroy the town. I must close as my letter is already ong enough. But vou may expect some exciting news from here ere long as the initial movement lias been made and the vigilantes have expressed their determination to rid the town of all known thieves, etc, while they in turn have said they would stay and see it out.

The British board of trade statistics make mortand more apparent, year by year, the facts that steamships are rap idly superseding' sailing vessels both for home and toroign trade. In the foreign trade alone steam tonnage shows an increase of 10 per cent, in the lat returns as compared with those of the irecedmg year, while a corresponding decrease is noticeable in sailing ships employed iu the same trade. Boston Courier: "What news to day?" said one of our city merchants to his friend. "What news?" respond ed the other; '"nothing, only thing grow better. Our pec pie are jreUin on their legs again." "On their legs,-' said the first ;' "1 don't see Low you can make that out." "Why, yv$," re plied the other, "folks that used to ride are obliged to. walk iiuw." The Old Man Sends Hh Lore. Freckpt, Furnas Co., Neb., ) Nov. 23d., 1879. f Friend Mac: 1 am in receipt of the dear old Herald regularly every week, and wife says I scan its familiar features as inteHtly as does a fond mother look upon the countenance of her darling intant, and would be as quick to note any change; detecting every smile or frown. You know how it is yourself, Mac; the newspaper part I mean, not the baby! In tact 1 do with a km I of .paternal feeling, scrut inize the write-up, the set up, the make up, and the work-up of the old familiar form, and feel free tosay that I should like to occasionally contri bute my mite toward filling its col umns with interesting news from all parts of the state, but owing tw Ike fact of my time being fuily occupied in preparing a new home, in this new country, and observing that your col umns were usually well filled with in teresting correspondence, and nothing in particular to wiite about from here, unless it would be a description of the country, 1 feared to offer anything, might be able to indite, however, will venture a few lines. Furnas county is in the southern tier, and the tenth county west from the Missouri river, and is probably the best supplied with limber and water of any county in the State. We also have an abundance of stone, of differ ent varieties, prominent among which is a solt stone caued magnesian lime stone, which car. be cut out with an ordinary handsaw into any desired shape, when first taken from the quar ry, but exposure to the atmosphere hardens it sufficiently to make it a very convenient and desirable building ma teria, and being of a cream co or, looks well for farm buildings. Then we have a fair supply of hard limestone, which answers well for bttiUling purposes, and when Lurntd makes an excellent lime for plastering ml mason's use. There is also an ar ticle here called "native lime," which we homesteaders mix up to plaster oar sod and dug-out houses with, and it looks its well as the best plaster. As is usually the case, the first set tlers in this country are comparative ly poor people, who are compelled to make their first set of buildings in the quickest and cheapest manner, which reduces them te about two varieties the dug-out, and tUjfcsod. Common people live iu a dug-out, but the ai is tecratrilhaveasodhouse, and the "nabob" will have a floor of boards in his sod. h iuse. But we all expect to have good stone buildings in the course of a few years, if we are blessed with ordinary prosperity. The surface of the country is what would properly be called broken, as a natural consequence where tkere are so many streams, but withal, there is but little waste land ; I might say none, as the land which is too rough for the plow, is the best for graziwg purposes, and at an off hand guess, I shotilJ say it is about properly divided to suit a conmunity of general agriculturists. As to the probabilities of this locali ty being well adapted to agricultural purposes, of ceurse, there might rest a doubt in the miuds of some, being as yet not practically demonstrated be youd question, but from all the evi dence I am able to obtain, I am confi dent it will prove td be even superior to counties east uf us, including, even old Cass, for about all kinds of fruits and grains, except cor : ; I would not recommend this section as being espe cially adapted to corn growing, though there is as good corn raised here as in the eastern part of thestate.yet I think it would not do well on many sections of the land here. To enter into a de scription of the soil, climate and va rious reasons that have caused me to fwrm my opinions of this country would require more time and space than I er yu could spare at this time, so it will have t be deferred. The principal grass here U the Buffalo and Bunch grass, with occasioal patches ef Blue- stein which is gradually, but surely working its way westward to "grew np with the country." Stock does well here; I should have said cattle, for it is not well adapted to raising horses, in fact our best stock of American horses do not thrive well here without extra care, neither do cows seem to yield as large a quantity of milk when kept on the grass, as they do further east, yet what is ob tained seems rich and gives a fair quan tity of butter of excellent quality. Cat tle usually live here upon Die "range"' all the year round mid keep in good condition. I am firmly of the opinion that this is an excellent locality for sheep farm ing, in fact, it will be the wool grow ers Paradise,' but as yet I havo only heard of two small flocks, lately brought in freni southern Colorado, but thriving finely at present. There hits been a large number of immigrants settled in this county dur ing the past season, I have no data upon which to base a statement, but it is a commou remark among old set tlers, that there are more new corners in the county and more lad broKen than ever had been previously, all put together. Another encouraging fact is noticeable, that the majority of the immigrants are of the better class, many of them being well educated and refined people, who have pushed out wtst to make a new start, &c. I have not seen a drunken man since leaving Hastings last March, in fact I don t think there ts a saloon in tbe county unless it is at Arrapaho; very few people here use tobacco in any form, anW you hardly ever hear an oath. All this seems very strange in a new county and is contrary to all precedent. WelJ.I had intended to tell you something about our enormous vege tables, our beautiful clear streams. with rock and gravel beds, containing plenty of fish, (but still would like . to see a few ef these sent out by onr fish commissioners tried here) and a list ef prices, which are higher here for all kinds of produce than at Lincoln or Plattsmouth, and store goods quite reasonable; also a few items upon po litical and rail road matters, bat I find it would string this letter out too long, so will postpone it for the present. There are several people in this coun ty from about Plattsmouth, whom I have heard of bnt Lot met with vet. Our weather cr.u't be beat: not a j storm this fall of any kind, clear aud j pleas;' tit.

Some miners had blaxtcd an enormous rock near the cascades, and, on removal of the debris, found it had a" large opening into a cave, the- floor of which was covered with water. Const nict iAg a rtide raft, nud providing thci.tz? selves with candles, the workmen sailed along tho underground river,' which, at a distance of tixt metres, was found to merge into a lake of limpid water. The roof of the cav ern was very high and covered with stalactite-1, the brilliant colors of which sparkled under the lights of tho can dles. Continuin;; Iheir courcC, tho; workmen Jiad, at certain places, to nav igate their craft between the stalactites, which, meeting the stalagmites from the bed of the lake, formed enormous column?, that looked as if they had been made expressly to sustain tho enormous arches. They thus reached the extremity of the lake, where they noticed a large channel extending toward the south, into -which water quietly made its way. Thi i sup posed "to be a large ii-tire which has baffled exploration heretofore at Seh don, and which connects tho cascade with that locality, and thus witli the mysterious source? of Tallin. It is possible that here they have found an immense natural basin, supplied by powerful sources, nnd Kil ling a part of its waters toward th-j lake, while the rest gfK-s to Sobdoii. Tno work men estimated tho distaiue under ground traversed by thorn at three kil oUtelrc, and the breadth of the lake at two. .Tl.cy brought out with them a quantity of fih which swarmed around the rift, ami which were found to bo bliud.
