Pick, Rochester, N. Y. A case of sickness and consequent need has come to the notice of some of our ladies and received partial help. The mother of a family living in the house at Mr. Mickelwait's vineyard, is sick with consumption, and as no help can bo procured to take care of her the husband is obliged to remain at home from work and therefore is deprived of means of support for the family, which consists of three small children. The place being so hard to get at during the recent mud dy and slippery roads made the render ing of aid more difficult, but it ia to be hoped that all will be done that is j possible to render them comfortable. A Terribly Sudden Death. The whole town was startled and shocked yesterday morning by the an nouncement that the wife of the Hon. S. M. Chapman had died almost in etantaneously of heart disease. It seems she arose that morning as well as she has been since the birth of her daughter, tea days ago, she ate a hearty breakfast, and re marked that she felt bettter than usual. Mr. Chapman came down town, and shortly after she passed into another room. In a few moments Mrs. Put nam, her mother, entered the same room and found her prone on the floor, dead. The alarm was instantly given; Mr Chapman was summoned, being in the Post Office at the time, by the fearful call that the wife he left but a half hour before as well as usual, was dead; medical aid was driven to the house immediately, but of no avail. The spirit had departed once and for all to that land which ne'er returns its visit ants, nor gives its secrets to mortal ear, Mrs. Chapman's maiden name was Sarah Putnam, and she was born in Vermont, though married in Platts mouth about ten years ago. She was a niece of Mrs. Rockwood and Mrs. M. L. White, and came as a member of their family to this town. Deceased was 33 years old last May, and a most estimable wife and mother. Her loss would be felt by her relatives most keenly under any circumstances; but to have her snatched by the whirlwind of death without a second's warning. is grief almost greater than they can bear. The bereaved husband is complete ly broken down. Words of sympathy are useless te- assuage such grief but he may rest assured that his friends, and they are the whole people.domost deeply and sincerely sympathize and feel for his deep, deep affliction. All arrangements for the funeral will be left to Hon. Jno. Chapman, his brother, who is now here. The little motherless babe of a week will be taken to the heart of every mother in the land and the other rela tives will look to that higher source for comfort and consolation in this their great bereavement. Soiae Changes in the B. & M. Mr. Philippi takes charge as Ass't Superintendent of the road from Platts mouth to Hastings, his headquarters in Lincoln. Alex. Campbell has the same posi tion from Hastings west and south. Remember we are selling all wool en goods very low, in order to make room for a New Spring Stock. 47tf GUTflMAX & WECKBACH Capt. Marshall has something down to the Post Office that don't be long to him, something that he found in the letter mailing box. It is the leetle joker" of a deck of Eu chre cards, evidently dropped in there between the letters that some one mailed. The owner can have the same by calling cn the. Capt. proving prop erty, paying charges and promising to be more careful in the future. The Capt. does not want to spoil the pack, and then a little joker is not just the thing in Uncle Sam's drawers, or the Captain's cither, you see. The IIeuald thinks it knows the man ; but "nuff ced." Fire Company No. 2 Was organized Tuesday night at the Court House. The house was full at time called for meeting. V. V. Leon ard, chairman ; T. II. Taylor, secre tary. Sometime was given' to argu ment, and solicitations offered for signers to the organization. One or two speakers thought the funds were rather limited, to undertake the or ganization at once. Mayor Johnson and Councilman Leonard advised a speedy organization and both felt and extended the prom ise of aid from the city, as soon as the company could give some proof of theirdetermiualion to work. The "Dea con" observed : "Mr. President, the only way to organize is to organize!" After which, on motion, they proceeded to the election of permanent officers, as follows: President John O'Reurke. Vice-President V. V. Leonard. Secretary T. H. Taylor. Treasurer A. W. McLaughlin. Chief-Engiueer -F. E. White. 1st Assistant Geo. II. Thompson. 2d Assistant A.Ashley. The officers were all elected by ac clamation, except Chief Engineer, where F. E. White received twenty- seven votes to G. II. Thompson's four teen. On motion a committee of five was appointed to draft Constitution and By-Laws, governing the Department, consisting of J. B. Strode, M. A. Harti gan, J. W. Johnson, J. P. Young, G. II. Thompson. The chief then requested all mem bers of the organization to meet him f at 10 o'clock, Wednesday, to remove the nook and Ladder truck from its present quarters, and place it in the apartment proffered by Mr. Shannon. The company consists of 44 good men, some of them too old for actual service, perhaps, but, as was suggest ed, will be able to do their share with their pocketbooks. The encouragements tendered by both rrivate citizens and the Council, is such as to secure a permanent and working company, nad the same spir it been manifested toward Company, No. 1, who spent their time, ruined their clothes, and paid out from $4.50 to 87.H0 each for uniforms, there might not have been quite the damage done at our late fire. We doubt not for the success of this, under all existing cir cumstances. But the boys must needs leceive the praise and encouragement they deserve, Instead of curses and ne gleW . Board or Trade Meeting-. Agreeably to a call very many of our business men met at the Court House on Saturday evening last, to or ganize a Board of Trade. Dr. R. R. Livingston was called to the chair, and A. W. McLaughlin elect ed Secretary. D. II. Wheeler and oth ers Bet forth the objects of the meet ing and there was a sort of general confab on our situation and what should be done this ensuing year. A motion that the temporary organiza tion be retained until a permanent body could be organized was carried; and a committee of seven appointed on Constitution and By-laws as fol lows: Messrs. Wheeler, C. H. Parme le, Jno. Waterman, J. V. Weckbach, F. E. White, M. L. White, F. Gorder. A number then signed the list of those desiring to become members. A committe of one from each ward was appointed to secure more names and on motion of Mr. Windham the meet ing adjourned until Wednesday even ing for further action. Fair and Driving Gronnds.

This is a fact and we do hope and earnest ly urge our people to subscribe to the stock of the Association and at nee as the matter must be closed up rigbt away. Parker Wise is the committee and do let us for once do things and have things as other towns and cities have them done. Almost Another Fire. An alarm of fire about seven o'clock Tuesday evening, brought everybody to windows and doors, and set many feot flying towards the south part of town, where the brilliant blaze show ed the fire to be, but the sudden disap pearance of the blazo allayed the fears as to a second big conflagration. The fire started in tho small building ad joining the blacksmith shop at the machine shops, and the roof was ablaze when discovered by the night watch man, who immediately blew the whis tle and then applied the hose which is large enough to do some service, and the stream of wator Boon made an end to what might have been even a more disastrous fire than the last one. Accident on Main Strest. A man by the name of Philo Knapp was severely hurt Tuesday afternoon. by the falling of a sledge hammer oa his jaw; said sledgehammer had been left carelessly laying over a blast by the men who are grading for Merges' foun dation.

Editor, if any of our farmers go to Plattsmouth, complaining of poor bridges and roads, just-tell them that the county has fur nished them hundreds of dollars worth of bridges now and the reason they have poor bridges is, because they are too lazy to fix them or don't travel them.

And the Herald with many congratulations hopes this hint(on) may not be lost on the oth er Adam(s) of tbe race. Luella Notes. Ed. Herald: During the past week wo have been forcibly reminded of the uncertainty of life by the death of Willie, eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Ja3. Colbert, and the infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Taylor. Considerable sickness in our vicinity ; among the af flicted are Mrs. Ed. Newton and Mrs. Martin Cain. Moving and building is the order of the day. "V e regret that for want of mail fa cilities (our Herald not reaching us until the next week after it is printed) we were unable to notify Dr. Doesticks sooner of the continuance of that "spell" which elicited his efforts to ef fect a cure. Tho dose of school boy po etry, and the eloquent "hit" adminis tered only "jogged" his patient's mind sufficiently to notice the diluted qual ity cf his remedjr. Through ignorance he faied to recognize, from mention made of "blackened chimneys," "mon uments," etc., the real cause of the "spell," or purposely ignored it to mis lead, and out of the depth of his com prehensive mind and poetical dispens ary pronounced it a case of "personal grievance or exceeding fear," which was not very encouraging to his pa tient, to say the least. Lest some of the many readers of the Herald (the Dr. included) have not seen the attack referred to, we will, with your permis sion, give it as seen in the Omaha Bee: General Grant told Judge Mackey, while traveling through South Caroli na, pointing to the blackened chim neys of a half-burned house: "That's one of Sherman's monuments. In all my campaigns about Richmond not a single house was burned, except in vi olation of orders." We would not, had we the abilits', say or write one word that would de tract from the praise and honor, due and paid, Grant, as a soldier. The peo ple, in justice, could do no less to any of those who battled for the perpetua tion of the Union, or to the memory of those who offered up their lives that our nation might live. But when Gen. Grant attempts to cloud the brilliant record of Gen. Sherman to the credit of himself, or invite a comparison, as in the above dispatch, he, or any of his worshippers, will find that Gen'l Sherman stands too high, in the -estimation of the people, and that the cloud will only reflect a dark spot on the pages of his own history, and he will suffer by the comparison. Far be it from us to court a contest with any one (especially tbe hero of mustard and jimpsonweeds) upon the question, feeling fiat we would fall far short of doing the subject justice; but as Philander has somewhat defi antly thrown out his invitations, if the Herald could give 113 a little space, we may in our next give a few extracts of history and personal ob servation, upon which we ground our opinion and preference, and to correct if possible, the Dr's false impression about that great whale discovered by Stanton, in the wording of the condi tion of Johnson'a surrender, which came so near foundering the ship of state after it had weathered the storm of the rebellion, and was majestically Boating on the tide of victory. Also, his idea of executive ability, of which he claims General Sherman is wholly short, but who to-day occupies a posi tion second only to the chief executive and one which requires no le33 execu tive abilities. No, dear Dr., we have no personal grievances, nor any fear that Grant will be nominated by the Republican party. They can and will find other candidates, who are eminently belter qualified, leaving U. S. G. at the dis posal of his Buchanan associates, when he may not object to receiving the votes of the "foreign element of the North," who. he claims, "have no love for the Union." In conclusion, permit us to surmise that if the Dr. "felt just so" when he read said article, he must (like Mrs. Tilton) have felt "about so, so," when he finished his eloquent reply. Adirondack. Note. We admit this communica tion because the Herald aims to give a reasonable chance to all, and besides the boys want some fun now and then. The matter should end here, however, as far as the merits of Grant and Sher man are to be canvassed, because, as we have already intimated to Adiron dack, it has been repeatedly and au thoritatively denied that Grant ever made any such remark, or any remark derogatory to Gen. Sherman, and there fore there is no case.
