Yes, readers, the editor is on a leave of absence, in Ohio, for bis family, during which lime, the deril will be sponsor for anything that may appear in the columns the Gazette; so here is his COT. Kclioiods Notice. Rev. Mr. Ham ilton of the Presbyterian Church, will preach in the School House next Sunday morning at 10 1-2 o'clock. In the eve ning, at early candle light, C. C. Goss will lecture upon Prtaching, at the same place. Bellevue. Never in the history of Bellevue, all things considered, have the prospects been so bright as they now ap pear. The sound of the manson's trowel; the click of the carpenter's hammer and saw are heard in every direction. Build ings, that but two weeks ago were but so many stone foundations, are now large two story houses. The active stirring din of building, gives our place an appearance that enli vens every branch of industry. Notwith standing the vast amounts of money, U. S. Coin has been taken out of our county by Uncle Sam, for his land. Still they build, improve, prosper, and go ahead. Our dock is lined with goods for our enterpri sing merchants. Our lumber dealers are in receipt daily of large amounts of pine lumber from St. Louis. Our steam mills are doing a driving business in the home manufacture of Cottonwood, Oak and black Walnut lumber while L. Belden, with his numerous kilns of brick, has put on an additional force to supply the wants of builders. Tou can hardly cross the streets without being run against by one of La rue's teams, hauling stone for foundations It is cheering to see these certain signs of prosperity for our place. It warms and gladdens our hearts when we think, with these signs, we can safely say, that the hard times east, which have blighted so many enterprises there, will not reach the west, even with its smoke. Rive JNew. The river is getting low, and last, week was unusually dull, there having been but few arrivals. The Watossa arrived from St. Joseph on the 21st. The Dan Converse went down the same day. She has been running be tween Council Bluffs, Omaha, and Sioux City, for some weeks. Her place is now taken by the newferry boat, Omaha City The Emigrant touched at our levee on the 22d, discharging passengers and freight. The Cabrieb arrived .on the 23d, and discharged a large quantity of freight This is her first trip to the upper Missou ri. She was formerly a Saturday packet between Su Louis and Boonville. We noticed on board, a goodly number of la dies and "Young Americans," a refresh ing sight, no doubt, to our bachelor friends, The Silver Heels arrived on the 25th, having made the trip from St. Louis in foe days and six hours losing twelve hours by fog, made 38 way landings, and discharged 200 tuns of freight. This, we believe, is the quickest trip that has been made this season, from Su Louis. lhe bilver Heels nas not appeared in our waters since the last of June, having been laid up for repairs. She is now in fine trim for the fall trade. Her obliging officers have our thanks for St. Louis papers of the 20th. The Col. Grossman, also, arrived and passed up on the 25ih. The Omaha arrived at our levee, on the 26th, bound for Fort Randall. Tare Notice. That gentleman who accidentally took a ceatain portable or folding Umbrella from the Fontenelle Bank, a short time since, when it didn't rain, would do the owner a great favor by returning it. As Dow, Jr. says, "eyes are looking and tongues will soon call names," unless returned. ' Thus saith ihs preacher" Ebsata. An error occurred in the notice of the Fontenelle Bank building, in our last issue. Its dimension should have been 22 by 42 feet, instead of 22 by 24 feet Melons. We are now luxuriating on mammoth melons, and we will wager a " bung-Iowa" that our friends in the states, can't produce belter ones. At any rate, their lusciousness is not excelled by those we use to eat at " general training," way down near sun line. New Arrival. The Circus and the Colportuer reached Nebraska tome time since; and last week we were visited by the "organ-grinder," large as life imnua the monkey. Surely, " westward the star of empire takes its way." We are now having cool and pleasant weather. The Lae:es' Benevolent Society, of this city, wilt meet at the house of Rev. Mr. Hamilton, on Wednesday next, Sept. 3, at 2 o'clock, P. M. As the elec tion of officers for the ensuing year, oc curs at that time, a full attendance of the members is earnestly solicited. We are requested to say that in the evening the Society would be pleased to see the gentlemen of the city, at all of their regular meetings. What say you, gentlemen f TnosE " NioHT-t n-o ales" who dis turbed the monotony of our clumbers a few evenings since, with their warbling notes,are entitled to our highest gratitude. Truly, " Music hath charms," &.C. We learn that the school kept by Mrs. Nrt, of our city, is in a very flourishing condition. We hope parents will avail themselves of the opportunity of sending their children to one so well qualified and adapted to the business, in which she is engaged. We would call the attention of those in want of a first rate article of brick, to the advertisement of Lemuel Belden, in to-day's paper. Mr. B. has a large quantity of brick on hand and is now making 7000 a day, at his Yard, which he will sell to those in want. He is also contracting to put them in the wall, in a superior manner, at short police. Give him a call, he has got the tools to do it with. Coal. We learn that the coal-mine, leased by Geo. 1 Jennings & Co., gives evidence already of an abundance of that very comforting commodity. The import ance of such a coal-bed to the growth and prosperity of the city cannot be two high ly estimated.. We would call the attention of our rea ders to the card of Macon & Brother of Omaha, published in to-day's paper. 1. O. O. F. The regular meetings of Bellevue Lodge, No. 4, will be hold on Monday evening of each week, at 8 o'clock, P. M. Brothers of the order who may be in our city on that evening, are respectfully invited to attend. W. H. COOK, N. G. W. W. HARVEY, Sec'y. The Widow or Henry Cla v. A cor respondent of the St. Louis Republican, who was present at the laying of the cor ner stone of the Clay Monument at Lex ington, on the 4th of July, thus refers in his letter to that Journal, to the venerable widow of the great Kentucky statesman: Before leaving Ashland, 1 passed over to the residence of Mr. John Clay, to pay my respects to the widow of Henry Clay. At the hour of the visit she was out ta king an evening ride. I met her, howev er, amid the scenery endeared to her by a thousand associations on a beautiful drive through the shades of the woodland pastures of Ashland. Mrs. Clay is seventy-six years of age. Until within a year she has been in hearty good health, tier feebleness is now, how ever, growing manifest, and the time is not remote when, in the tomb to be erect ed to her husband, and by his side, she too will be consigned to her final earthly repose. May her closing days be tran quil, hopeful and happy. A Lucky Recover. A few days ago, a merchant of New Orleans, while land ing from a steamer at the levee, dropped a valuable watch overboard. He instantly procured a pig of iron and a line, with a buoy, and dropped the iron as near as he could on the spot where the watch bad disappeared. Early next morning he went on board the steamer, and taking a line in his hand, dived down, returning, so said, to the surface in less than a min ute with the watch in his hand. The wa ter was 32 feet deep. The great trunk sewer in New York is nearly completed. It is four thousand feet long, and will drain seven hundred acres of land. It is nine feet high and eight and a half wide in the clear, bottom of solid masonry, sides three feet thick, and cost one hundred and twentv-nve thousand dollars It commences in Third Avenue, at the corner of 56th street, running thence through 53d street to Second Avenue, down the latter to 49th street, thence to East River. The excavation for it varies from fourteen feet to twenty-eight feet Mr. Elisha Riggs, of the firm of Cor coran and Iliggs, of Washington, D. C. has entered into obligations with the pro prietors of the city of Superior, at the head waters of Lake Superior, to erect at that place, within two years, a hotel costing not less than 51UU.UUU. A Royal Arocmeht. Frederick the Great was always very fond of d inputs tion; but as he generally terminated the discussion by collaring bis antagonist and kicking his shins, few of his guests were disposed to enter the arena against bun One day when he was even more disposed for an argument, he asked one of bis suit why he did not venture to give bis opin ion on some particular question : "It is impossible, your majesty was the reply, "to express an opinion before a sov ereign who has such very strong convic tions, and who wears such very thick boots!"
