"Crow, ( hapninn, Crow."
Alany of our readers are not aware,
prolxilly, of the origin of tho phrase,
" Crow, Chapman, Crow." In 1S30, in
the city of lUlun, thrre appeared a noted
man by the name of Kirk, who was a de
adlier from all the regular denomina
tion. Ilrtiispd to preach on Hviion Com
tnon, and hy the use of the most abusive,
obscene, arid indecent language, raised a
violent spirit of monocracy against him.
It so happened, that just prior to tho ex
i iiement raised in the city, by tho preach
ing of Mr. Kirk, a Mr. Chapman, a very
wealthy merchant, was elected Mayor of
lloslon i and on tho evening of the riot, as
the populace were about to make violent
demonstrations against Kirk, the Mayor
climbed a small tree on the Common,
where the mob was assembled, and com
menced, with his very peculiar, squeaking
voice, to read the riot act. J lis voice so
effeminate, and sounding so much like the
rowing of a young cockerel, the crowd
at once exclaimed, ' Crow, Chapman,
Oow.' The young cockerel of Klyria,
Ohio, who has had hi plumage plucked,
by birds of higher grade, in Nebraska,
should be careful how he steals the lhun
der of his Boston namesake.

Editor of Gazette: It is not our wish
to monopolise to much of your paper, but
when truthless twaddle is put into book
urn, and sent forth to the world as histo
ry; it certainly cannot be out of place to
give it a passing notice in a weekly jour
nal. Tho author of the book, himself be
ing a vindicator and guardian of the law
and right, will most certainly extend tome
tho warmest gratitude of Ins heart, for cor
rcctinz the litllo unintentional errors and
mistakes, into which he had somehow fal
len. On page 30, of "Omaha City," Mr.
W. says, "Though not on the Platte
though fifteen miles from it, Omaha by
its position, commands the valley of that
river." Not being a Catholic, and hence
not believing in the doctrine of "Papal-
bull-ism, we began, on reading this, to ex-
amino the ouestion for ourselves, llmo
Omaha could command the valley of the
Platte, wos the natural point of inquiry.
From Omaha, south to tho mouth of the
Platte, is fifteen miles; from Omaha, west,
to Fremont, the nearest point that the
Platte ran be reached, in that direction, is
thirty-five miles. Now, from which point,
Mr. W., do you propose that Omaha shall
command the Platte valley? rrom its
mouth? very good. This is the only point
from which you can command it. The
eas'ern terminus of the I'latto valley, is
here at Dellevue; and you, nor any one
else, can command the use of that valley
for rail-road purposes, at any other point
Send on then, from Omaha, your travel
and produce to this place, and we will for
ward you to the far of regions of the Fucfic.
lint perhaps Mr. W. will argue, that
Omaha shall command the Plutto valley,
from the other point, viz : Fremont. Well,
if he wishes to take that route, let us fol
The Nebraskian of last week, speaking ,ow bim a moment( onj we 8hall see that
it is more impracticable than the other, for
commanding the said valley, for the pur
poses indicated.
Said valley is noi just back of Omaha, as
the writer says; it does not commence at
of Chapman in tho last election say:
"His opponent, Judge Ferguson, was
Holding hit commission from the United
States, as Chief Jutlico nf the Territory at
the time of his nomination and ELEG
TION."
Now, Mr. Nebraskian we are surprised, the low bottom directly in front of it, but
that you could find it in the blackness of is thirty-five miles distant; hence, wheu
your heart, to come out for once, and pro- the snorting horse goes prancing up the
claim to the world one simple truth, by valley, this great city will be left far dis
saying; that Judge Ferguson is elected, tont. If the route to Fremont was smooth
and thereby selling yoursolf right in point and level, then there might be some show
of fact with the people; you are entitled to a in such a statement; but as bluffs and ra-
leather meddle. If you should be so for- vines, so high and deep, up and down, all
tunate, as lobe caught in the future telling the time fill up the space between these
another truth, proclaimed with like bold two points, such an assertion is very curi-
our. It might read very well down east,
where people are ignorant of the face of
I the country back of Omaha; but to us, it
reads just like tptcial pleading a lawyer's
quibble. Omaha, arrogating to herself,
ness, you shall be duly noticed in our col
umns.

thoughtless. Terchcd as I was tipon
stool of three, legs in the strangers apart
ment, I had a fair chance of using my op
tical vision to good advantage. The phre
nological or rather the physiognomical
appearance of a large portion of the au.
dience, I must say, did not impress me very
favorably. Some of their eyes were all
askiew, with very low flat foreheads; a
great depression about the reeion of ven
eration, and quite a protruding about the
posterior inferior region of the cerebellum.
They were not what I should call first class
people, by any means. Many of them
would nnswer very well to Baxters dis
ruption "the genteelly vulvar, sadly over
dressed with more ribbons limn brains."
I must do the city, however, the justico to
say, that they are not tho permanent rest
dents of the same. They are rather the
transient guests of the Broadway Hotels,
who havo resorted thither from almost all
parts, during the cold winter months.
While waiting for the preacher, the

Tho hour of service having arrived, a
full grown, thick set, hearty, healthy look
ing man, is seen advancing, clothed in
furs rather than camels hair. He posses-
es nono of the airs of a clergyman his
physical contour is more indicitive of
butcher. His bows, nods "and pleasant
countenance, indicate sociability and af
fectionate humanity. As he enters the
pulpit, he is recognized by the stranger1
as Dr. Crispin. He handles his books
and papers, with as much case and don't
care-aliveness, as if he was in his study
Most of his pulpit performances are high
ly interesting, but this evening we did not
witness one of his happiest efforts. Ev
ery thing seemed stiff and artificial. 1 lis
figures seemed far fetched. The anec
dote in which he indulged, was so evi
dently iutended lo produce laughter, that
the opposite emotion in many, was the re
sult. His gestures were very pretty, but
evidently studied and unnatural. Some
might have called that effort a very cred
itable one, but having heard him away
from home, where ho did so much better,
we prouounced it a very tome effort. Mr.
C. however, is not a novice, by any means,
but an able expounder of the principles of
practical Christianity. He moves active
ly, thinks vigorously, writes profusely,
nd preaches incessantly. There is no
artificial or manufactured Christianity
alout him, no saintly expressions or gluu
ces of the eye, no pious puckering about
the mouth, on certain times and to answer
csrta'n ends. He is himself, and shows
at all times what he is. In the pulpit and
out, he is pleasant and good natured be
nevolence and sympathetic affection beams
froirt every expression of his countenance,
so much so that you see in him a friend
and a brother. We hail him as a cola-
borer in the great work of elevating hu
manity, and pronounce him emphatically
a man for the times. CHAUCER

This post, thus established, was entrust
ed with a noted Indiantrader, Francis Da
roin, who for several years managed its
(fairs. It then passed into the hands of
Joseph Ronbadeaux as agent, who super
intended it six years, when his place was
taken by John Cabanne. This latter gen
tleman managed the concern until the
year 182 i, when it was transferred to Col.
Peter A. Sarpy, of St. Louis. Since that
period, Col. S. has been known in all this
region as a gentleman of indomitable en
ergy and perseverance, of uprightness and
integrity. For years he was the tnly
white inhabitant of all this western region
sole Monarch; In fact of Nebraska.-
In his dealing with the natives, his strict
adherence to the great principle of
right, gave them unbounded confidence in
him, as well as a commanding influence
over them. Ho was die only man who
could hold in check, the infuriated passions
of the uncultivated savage; the only one
for a long time, that could speak and inter
pret the Indian dialect. For over thirty
years, he remained at his post, pursuing
the even tenor of his way, until about a
year since, the natives having been re
moved, the trading post was abandoned. '

Trading Post Bellevue.
Very early in the history of the Great
West, as early as 1810, the American
Fur Company, consisting of eminent and
enterprising men from New York and St,
Louis, determined on establishing a trading
post at the most eligible point on the west
ern side of the Missouri river. Of the
members of this company, John Jacob
Astor from New York and Pierre Chou
teau front St. Louis, were the most noted.
After making extended observations, and
noting several points, the company finally
determined upon the spot on which Belle
vue now stands, as the most eligible and
practicable of any that had been disco v
ered for the purposes indicated.
The following, among some other, were
the reasons which led them lo the elec-
tion. 1 The river here was narrower than
at any other point, and easy of navigation,
with a rock bottom and shore. Plenty of
stone for building, and timber for fuel and
other purposes, were also found; while the
spot itself was as smooth and beautiful as
the hand of nature could make it.
Here these experienced traders, noted
for selecting points which afterwards swell
to gigantic proportions, located their post
for trading with the natives, in furs, pelts
and other articles of merchandise.
This p lint was regarded by them at
lhat early day, as the gateway of that
great natural highway, the Platte valley,
which must ultimately link the Pucifio with
the Atlantic. Their iiidirmeitt coalesced
Woman's Influence.
" Oh ! lovely woman, fairest of mankind,
Adorned by nature most, by art refinedj
Endowed w ith powers and talents rare.
With powers denied the sterner se.
Here on earth below thy mission be,
To cheer, to soothe and sweeten life,
To hush all discord and contentious strife,
To refine and polish all mankind,
With conversation pure and chaste;
And render earth a universal scene,
Of tenederness, of meekness and love."
Well may woman be termed tbe seraph
of this nether sphere the facinating en
chantress, around whom a halo of tender
ness forever glows, and whose voice leads
captive the most isolated and obdurate
heart. To her is given the irresistable
power of cheering the desponding and the
sorrowful, and sympathyzing with the poor
and the afflicted; and in whatever position
fortune may call her, whether in the splen
did mansions of the rich, or in the despised
hovels of the poor; still sho always dffuses
around her a spirit of kindness and love
In her presence, no soul is oppressed with
corroding sorrows disappointments only
tend lo bind her closer to the idol of her
heart. i , ' '
Nor is her influence confined alone to
the social circle, that exerted by her upon
community, is far greater than many are
wont lo suppose. Objects of benevolence
are accomplished far easier by her win
ning smiles, than by the most earnest ap
peals of the sterner sex. As she moves
through community the godess of perfec
tion, the disturbed elements are quieted
the winds of passion subside; confusion is
changed into order and harmony; the an
gry billows are hushed into a peaceful calm
while the overhanging skies present a clea
and cloudless sunshine.
The sweet music of her voice touches a
cord that vibrates through every depart
ment of the soul, melting the icebergs of
stoical indifference, raising the soul to no
ble action, kindling therein desires for
communion with the most angelic of earth's
noblest forms, elevating to regions higher
and holier lo au atmosphere purer and
serener, with a persuasiveness unequaled
by a Ciceronian eloquence or a Demos
thenian oratory. Women! noblest of the
noble; fairest of the fair; earth would be
dreary without thee, heaven gloomy in
thine absence.
"Hail! woman, hail! last found in Kden's bow
ers, 'Mid humming streams and fragrance breath
ing flowers.
Thou art thro' light and gloom, thro' good and
ill,"
