Hard Times.
Although our eastern exchanges bring
in news of mobs, riots, nnd starvation, on
account of hard times, we feci thankful
that here in Nebraska, wo have an abun
dance of everything thai is essential for
comfort. Tlmt money is scarce, is true,
but tho fertile plains of Nebraska, have
produced an abundance to sustain life
nnd ten wfl have no poor wo sny no
poor, for every cne has plenty within his
reach. Wages for nil kinds of labor,
are nearly n good as ever. The
practical working of theso limes in the
ve?t, aro showing most conclusively, tho
false reasoning of soino crokers in tho
eastern pnpm last spring, concerning
speculation in the west.
What a contrast ! Tho western pio
neer senior, who left tho homo of his
youth, and nil the dear social relations of
life, together with its comforts and luxu
ries, to make a home upon tho fertile prai
ries of Nebraska, has raised the past
summer, twice tho amount he needs, of
the necessaries of life, whilst panic, pau
perism and beggary, are staring thousands
of honest people in tho face, in eastern
cities, who would have removed here, but
for tho continual cry of " speculations in
wild lands, nnd tity lots."
Arrival r.ttraorriiiiary.
Chapman 11.11. Chapman Hon. Bird
13. Chapman, tho pscudo delegate, arrived
at Omaha lust neck. This most extraor
dinary personago has been among his
toadies, cronies and topis, for a few days
past, telling lliciu whnl a LION he was at
Washington, and what a power of influ
ence he exerts there how familiar ho is
with old Buck ; how much the Adminis
tration regretted that the peoplo of Ne
braska, had not sent him to Congress
and to quote his own language, " by gosh,
how thunder struck they were nt Wash
ington, when Judgo Ferguson arrived,
with tho certificate of election, as Dele
gate" and again, how ho had offered to
compromise with the Administration, old
Buck nnd hii Cabinet the great demo
cratic party throughout tho Union, and
Judge Ferguson in particular, if they
would appoint him Governor of Nebras
ka; and how owe slrickeu James Buchanan
felt, in the presence of so much human
greatness as his (Chapman's) highness.
When Congress shall have assembled, we
opine that even the impudenco of Bird,
will not bo sufficient to enable him to
stand tho contest.

These Bridges aro tho most important
partof ihe work, tho grading bein but
a small item in the expense. The Bridg.
es are built of the best quality of nuie
rial that could be obtained, nnd are of i
character for durability, superior ta any
built in the Missouri valley. The whole
work now completed, ready for ue,
speaks admirably for the efficient manu
merit and ability of Mr. M. J. Ragan, as
a contractor. It has been our pleaure to
have the acquaintance of Mr. Ragnn,
since his arrival here, lust spring, from
St. Iuis, when he commenced this work.
Aside from his superior business qualifi
cations and popularity as a reliable and
responsible contractor, he i a gentleman
possessed of those high social qualities,
that we delight to meet. He left our city
on board the steamer Isabella, for St.
Louj, last Saturday. By his uniform,
urbane and courteous manners, and his
noble and generous nature, he has left a
host of warm and admiring friends in Ne
braska. Last, though not least, Mr. Ra
gan is a thorough going, active, straight
haired Democrat. Ho carries with him,
our warmest wishes, for his success in
any enterprise he may undertake.
Bettiwo on Elections. The Su

St. Nicholas Socinble, in tho city of New
Voik, allow mo to ninke a few remarks
respecting it. Several of such Sociables,
exists in the city, during tho winter
months. First and foremost of which,
stands tho St. Nicholas, composed of the
best and first classes of the city. The
object of theso Sociables, is the cultiva
tion of the social nature, not by sensual
pleasures nnd nppethites not by cold,
stoicnl indifferenco to each others welfare,
but by the extension of a warm hand nnd
a still warmer heart, a feast of reason
and a flow of soul. This Sociable meets
every two weeks. Tho evenings nre
principally spent in dancing, nnd other
social exercises, closing with refreshments
necessary for tho sustenanco of nature.
Oft mi tho members of the nssociation, will
take a moonlight excursion, a sleigh ride
and other diversions, calculated to awak
en tho otherwise dormant feelings of our
social nature, nnd call them into vigorous
action. Man being a social being, de
mands the pleasures of social life, and
this demand must nnd will bo granted.
If it is refused gratifications in one way,
it will seek it in an other. If tho super
stitious professor of religion, frowns dow n
amusements, thnt aro in themselves inno
cent and harmless, this demand of our na
ture, w ill be tnut by a resort to the broth,
el, and other places nf vico and corrup.
tion. In the enjoyment of these, man
hood will be debased, friends disgraced,
and society ruined. Tho St. Nicholas
Sociable has done more to keep young
men virtuous and temperate, than many
are wont to suppose. Their winter even
ings have been spent in the best society,
tending to elevato unJ refine, rather than
debase nnd ruin. During my connection
with it, I must say, that my enjoyments
wcro of the highest and purest character.
I was led by my relation with such an as
sociation, to respect my self more highly
than ever, thereby to honor the body of
which I wns a member. I hope that it will
long exist, carrying out the mission, for
which it was organized.
To you, members of ihe St. Nicholus
Sociable, I return many thanks for the
kind wishes expressed for my future wel
fare, in your resolutions, as adopted on
receiving my resignation. J. E. T.
Cleveland, X. T.
Among tho many thriving interior
towns of Nebraska, none stand more con
spicuous than the one above mentioned.
Cleveland is situated on the Loup Fork of
the Platte River, SO miles west of Omaha,
and just half way between Omaha and
Fort Kearney, in the Platte Valley, upon
the North side of the river. It is direct
ly on the Council Bluffs and Fort Kear
ney Military Road, as will be seen in to
day s raner, is craued and the streams
bridged to this point.
It is too well known to mention the
fact, that this is the great thoroughfare
from tho Missouri River, overland, to
California, via Fort Larimie, South Pass,
nnd Utah. In addition to tho numerous
advantages presented in the locution of
Cleveland, as regards its beautiful and
commanding position it has the advan
tajrfl of tho rich nnd fertile valleys of
these two great streums ubove mentioned
an abundance of stone of a superior
quality for building, and what is the
great desideratum in this country large
tracts of saw timber and cedar, so valua
ble for fencing, ore in abundance. The
rapid and unprecideutcd settlement of the
lunds adjacent to Cleveland, the last six
months, is an evidence of the high esti
mate in which these lands are held, by
those in search of new homes having
those natural requisites so eagerly sought
for in this western country.
The Company who are building the
town of Cleveland, have already erected
a new Hotel, forty by sixty feet, two sto
ries high, a building of fine proportions
and of the best materials, a great portion
being pine. Many good substantial houj
es, of a character that would grace any
city, are completed, und occupied on the
town Kite. Two large and expensiv
steain saw mills, are already in full blast
in the valley of the streams on which thi
town is situated. A treaty has been
formed with the Pawnees, by Gen. Geo
W. Denver, on the pri of the govern
ment, by which the Indian title to these
lands have been extinguished, and they
nre now open for settlement,
la consderation of the fact, that the tow
of Cleveland was only laid out last spring
and the amount of substantial improve
ments made wiihin that time the supe
rior advantege and facilities for bui'.din
a town, and its ceutrulity of location it
has a future which, as a portion of our

Major Culhertsen, principal agent of
the American Fur Company, Dr. Arnold,
surgeon; nnd (Jen. Rcdfield, agent for
the Crows, Oshawincs nnd Black foot Indi
ans, passed tho night at our whurf, aboard
the steamer Omnha on Thursday night
last. We had the plcasire of making
their acquaintance, and from them learn
ed thnt the two former were sixty days
out from Fort Benton. The latter from
tho mouth of the Yellow Stone. They
raino in a " Mackinaw boat" as far as
Nebraska City. They report matters,
as between the Indians and whites in a
peaceable and friendly condition. The
ditl'ernt tribes of Indians have yel consi
derable difficulties among themselves.
The Sioux are particularly quarrelsome
and disposed to be oppressive to their
weaker brethern.

The New York Tribune states thut the
derangement of the money market, has
had a mott disastrous effect upon the mar
ket for horses. Horses which cost their
owners seven hundred and fifty dollars,
were sold lately for one hundred and
seventy five dollars in that city. Another
horse which a year ago had a standing
otter of one thousand five hundred dollars,
wns sold for three hundred dollars; nndn
handsome bay, for which six hundred dol
lnas was paid lost summer, and not con
sidered dear at that, brought one hundred
and twenty five dollars a few days ago.
Local & Miscellaneous.
N:w Hotel. Pursuant lo a resolu
tion of the meeting, called to take meas
ures to. erect a new Hotel, to, take ihe
place of the Benton House three lots
;iave been selected one bought, and two
donated by the Rev. William Hamilton.
Thejrare located on the bluff, directly east
of the residence of Judge Ferguson. The
work has commenced and progresses
finely. Since the public meeting (at
which ihe sum of $2000 was subscribed,
as a donation,) several valuable subscrip-
ions have been received. Among others,
ono from Win. A. Gwyer ft Co., of Oma
ha, of five thousand feet of lumber. This
s just as we expected of the man. Mr.
Gwyer is a large lot holder in our city,
and addition to the vast amount of money
he has expended in our place, for its im
provement, the last year he still comes
up to the relief of the unfortunate, with a
iberality worthy the man. '
The present location is but one block
removed from the old silo. In dimen
sions, the building is 42 by 60 feet, three
stories high. Notwithstanding the cry of
hard times, our business men and citizens
in general, show a spirit worthy of the
enterprising character they have always
borne, and in a very short time, this grent
oss to the city and the traveling public,
will be repaired.
(or. Izard.
It is with feelings of sincere nnd heart
felt regret thnt we part w ith Gov. Izard.
that his future path may be a pleasant
one, and his course a prosperous one, is
our strong and earnest wish. During his
administration, few of his otTicial acts
would we blame ; none of his private acts
could we change. His official course was
ever the same stendy, honorable, straight
forward one. He swerved not to the
right or left to endorse private or local in
terests, nnd encouraged no partizan selfish
spirit , but strove to promote the real inter
ests of the entire Territory, nnd con
stantly maintain and accelerate her pro
gress in wealth and lntluence. I ho po
silion he held, as regards surrounding cir
cumslances, was one of difficulty and per
plexity, rew men could have stood at
our helm with so much ease and grace;
and at tho same time guided us with so
marked and manly firmness nnd ability.
The cares and trials of the position were
and extremely harrassiug, though they
w eighed, apparently, but lightly upon him,
and with graceful dignity did he endure
them. As regards his intercourse . with
other officiuls, we can almost bestow upon
him Abdiel's encomium: "Among the
faithless, faithful only he." As a gentle
man and a citizen, society will feel and
regret his loss. It ii one not easily sup
plied. His departure has created a gap
in our City's social circle which no one
can fail to perceive and deplore. For the
poorest citizen, Gov Izard always had a
smiling face, a kind word, and a cordial
grasp of the hand ; for the wealthiest,
no more. Honor and integrity composed
his character ; while a genial atfubiUy
and universal kindness comprised his dis
position. His head was clear and cool ;
while his heart was warm and sensative.
By every class of honest citizens, he was
loved, respected, honored. Omaha

The Nebraska Advertiser of the 12th

Just as we go to press, we are inform
by E. S. Dundy, Esq., of Archer, that on
Sunday last, a Messenger from the Gov

Small No i ts. Mississippi is to be
added to the list of Slates which have pro
hibited the circulation of bank notes of a
less denomination than five dollars. A
law to this effect goes into operation the
first day of November. This applies to
the toreign bank notes, as there is no bank
of issue in Mississippi.
Going Home. We noticed a day or
two since that the packets for Lurope car
ry out full loads of passengers natives
of Great lsnlain and the continent, mi
grating homeward lo escape the hard
times here, this step may seem prefer
able to them now, but iu a few months
there must be many thousands of labor
ers thrown out of employ in the old coun
tries, in view of tho sudden stoppage of
the American trade. Many of these
homo returning emigrants carry with them
considerable means, the result of years of
toil nnd economy. A letter from Newbu
ryport says thnt quite a number of the
irisn population oi mat section are now
returning to Ireland with the money they
have saved. Probably this may explain
the steady run made on the savings banks
in many cities by persons of European na

The total number of failures in New-

of the revulsion of 1837, the number of

Fort Ripley Land Sale. A num
ber of gentlemen left this city yeslerduy
to attend the sale of the Military Reser

land to be sold is about 40,000 acres, and
is divided off into 40 acre lots. As there
are no restrictions about the sale, it being
public and to the highest bidder, it is ex
pected that the prices received will be very
low, probublyless than $1,25 per acre.
