Nathaniel Tiiayeu, Prcs't." GAinitALDi is pronounced serious ly ill. A heavy shock of earthquake was fell iu Bermuda. No lives lost. Shwakd county endorses the A. & X. bonds by the following vote: 1100 for, and -100 against. The steamer Devonshire, from Philadelphia to Loudon, lost 155 head of cattle in a gale. Makriaue is projected between the Crown Prince, of Sweden, aud Princess Victoria, of Baden.- Tni; Iowa prohibitory liquor law has been held to be consitutional by the Supreme Court of the State. The new craters of JEtna form a vast abyss in the side of tho moun tain, from which eruptions coutiuuc unceasingly. The Gcrniau Catholic convonliou recently in session at Newark, N. J., selected St. Louis for the nest place of meeting. Four nihilist conspirators were hanged the other day at Kief, Rus sia. Thousands of people witness ed the execution. Gen. James Shields, late United States senator from Missouri, died suddenly at Ottumwa, Iowa, on the evening of the 1st. It is announced that Edward Pet tit, tho boy that was so badly hurt atthe Omaha driving park recently, will soon be as well as ever. Porn, the bigamist, tried the other day at Lincoln, got the full penalty of the law, seveu years at hard Jabor in the penitentiary. Ox tho 7th inst., warrants were issued for the arrest of Kellog's witnesses for testifying falsely be fore the committee on privileges and elections. A TiiAiir in New York attacked the widow of farmer Winegar. She was so frightened that she died in 6tautly. A lynchiug party went in pursuit of the tramp. Secketauy McCkaiiv has been nominated by the President for U. S. 'Circuit Judge for the eighth cir cuit, to succeed Judge Dillon, who hue tendered his resignation. Gould is reported as saying, once upon a tlmo, to a rival, that he could light him as long as he lived, be cause he had a railroad in Nebraska that was bringing him iu an im mense revenue. The St. James Hotel and Mrs. Jahn's establishment, on Tenth street, Omaha, were entered the other night, and several guests were relieved of their watches, chains aud some moucy. Ciias. FriiKMAX, of Omaha, charg ed with bigamy, was arrested the other day, and judging from the facts it appears to be a plain case again6t him, as both wives live in the city of Omaha. John Blax was hanged on the Gth at SL Charles, Mo., for the murder of Elijah "Warren. He confessed his guilt, end said whisky and bad com pany was tho cause, and warned all to shun both. Tns steamer China sailed tho other day for China. Among the passengers were seventeen Chinese lepers, who had been inmates of the ppt house, and were shipped bv order of the supervisors. Thuf.e men dresspd in black en tered the house of Thos. Murray, at Fort Omaha, on the night of the Gth and demanded his moucy or his life. They obtained about five hundred dollars iu money and made their escape. We learn from Tuscon, Arizona, under date of the Gth, that a band of Indians from tho San Carlos reser vation have been marauding the country for three weeks. They have killed five mcuandj-un off consider able stock. Baron Nathax M. Rothschild the famous banker of the great firm of Rothschild, is dead. He was a Hebrew in faith, and remarkable for his great benevolence. As a financier ho scarcely had an equal. Peace to his silent dust. Lewis S. Miller, aged 15, of Robcrtsvillc. Md., on the 5th shot and killed Charles Morris, about the same age. Miller had been call ed nicknames by some boys, aud procured a mufket, loaded it,fol low ed the boys and shot Norris. David Stuart & Co., merchants of Liverpool, have failed. Their liabilities will teach two hundred thousand pounds. It is stated that the firm is largely indebted to the Presbyterian missionary agency in Aiiierica, for whom they were agents. Axother robber occurred the other night iu Omaha. A gentle man retiring to bed hung his pants on a chair near the window which contained iu the pocket about $G50. The thief opened in some way the shutters, raised the window, grabbed tho pants, aud got away with the prize. A coRREsroxDEXT writes from Lcudvllle, Col., to the Omaha lice that all business is overdone aud rapidly declining. The same writer says that the supreme ruler in this part of the country is gold or its equivalent, and that thousands are worshipping atits altar, and that less than ten per cent, will realize their anticipations. The Democratic State convention held in Ohio on the 4th nominated the following ticket: Thomas Ew ing, for governor; A. V. Rice, lieu tenant rorcnior ; treasurer, Anthony Howell; auditor, Charles Reemcliu"; judge or the supreme court, "W. J. GUtuore-; attorney general, Isaiah Pillar? ; member of public works, PaU-icJcO'Marau. Rufus Pope, alias It. D. Chase, the noted bigamist, of Liucolu, had his trial the other day before Judge Pound, lie was confronted iu court by his first and his second wife, and alter hearing the tcstimouy, the jury retired aud returned iuto court agaiu iu exactly two minutes, with a verdict of guilty of bigamy, lie had not received his sentence, but it was thought that Judge Pound would give him the full penalty, seven years in the peni tentiary. Stci-s have recently been taken "by the members of the board of the the capitol-addUion buildiug at Lincoln, to let the contract, aud after estimating the incidental expenses of the board, and for ad vertising, plans, &c, which taken from tho ?75,000 appropriated, the board would havo $GG,000 with which to construct the building. They have made a pretty good start to take out the head of the pile $9,000 before the law appropriating the money shall be declared uncon stitutional. It is stated upon good authority that the senators aud representatives in Congress from Nebraska have urged the President to appoint the secretary of war from west of the Missouri river, alleging as the rea son, that the army has become noth ing but a protecting force for the border 6tatcs. This will be a toler ably good office while peace pre vails, but during a time of war has its cares, anxieties and responsibili ties, and proved the means of the early death of E. M. Stanton, a good and patriotic man. Don't lc Fricrlttcnctl, Coaxed or Weceivctl. Making an estimate from last year's actual voto in Platte county, by adding the Eamc per cent, of gain that we have had of population, the vote on the bonds will be 1300. One third of this is, say 431, two-thirds SG7. It is altogether too much to expect a unanimous vote as it ought to be, but the friends of com petition should see to it that uo effort is spared to make it as nearly so as practicable. Every intelligent voter acknowledges the desirability of competition. All who have in vestigated the situation recognize the necessity of competition, and the importance of securing this southern line. The propositions have carried Seward and Butler counties by sweeping majorities, aud the same should be true of Platte county. Your vote is your own, and should bo under the control of your own intelligence, unbiased. Depend upon it, the heart of the people is right iu this matter. Don't allow the Union Pacific R. R. Co. or any of its agents to frighten or coax or deceive you into voting against this proposition. It is only such men that are actively engaged in the canvas against this proposition. They etaud in a some what similar relation before the jury of the people as does an attorney to a client in court, who may speak cither his real sentiments or those merely that best suit the exigencies of tho client. Think of the situation of the Union Pacific Co. in this con test, and you can very readily see what those exigencies are. She pays about one dollar iu five of the taxes of Platte county, and will therefore pay one-fifthof all the A. & N. road will cost tho county. Aside from this tho actual loss to the U. P., in decreased profits, for transporting our products will, at a fair estimate, be $100,000 a year. It will be seen that she is doubly interested against the bonds, while the citizens of the county at large arc doubly interested for tho bonds. Iu a coutcst of this kind whom can the U. P. get as ac tive workers for her? Evidently those who arc tied to her by obliga tions of some sort, moro or less 6trong favors received, favors promised, or favors expected. There may, possibly, be exceptions to the application of this general principle, but it is extrCmcly difficult for can did men to believe that there is one voter iu Platte couuty working hard against the bonds, turning every stone in favor of the Unioii Pacific Ji. Ji. Co., tcho does so because his soul is in the work. "Great is Diana of the Ephesians," which in this case means, if they don't mako at least a 6how of work their occupation would be gone. Tor the Journal. Mr Editor: A public meeting was held at tho residence of Mr Henry "Wasscrbcrgcr, Stearns prai rie, Saturday night. G. C. Barnum, II. G. Carcw and G. Schuttc were the speakers, and spoke to a very crowded house in favor of the A. & N. bonds. Our brother farmer, Mr. Barnum, made somo very impressive remarks regarding the bond ques tion. The speeches were well re ceived by the audience and went to show that nearly all the farmers in this vicinity are for the bonds, and will do all they can for a competing line with the U. P. The Messrs. Speice & North, M. T. Kinney and D. C. Loveland, all from U. P. headquarters, made come re marks agaiDst the bonds, but did not have much effect upon the audience. Where is the man, the Hon. D. C. Loveland, our float Reprcscutative, who made the assertiou that he was not working against the L. & N. propositiou, when he" is working the best he knows how to kill the bonds ? He said in his remarks on Saturday night if the bond question will not stand discussion there is something wrong; if there is a flaw iu the proposition submitted aud the peo ple of Platte couuty aro so short sighted that they cannot see it, why don't he stand up like a man and throw some light on the subject? To the people of this county he says the future vill reveal if the bonds carry on next Saturday, aud I verily believe they will. The futuro will reveal a mighty big cut on all kinds of freight, on the great, tyrannical U. P. corporation R. R., aud our float Representative will get a cheap ride down to Lincoln. As for Mr. Kinney, he would not give his reasons for backing up ou the bonds cither. Every sensible man can see where tho flaw comes in. Self interest says to every farmer in Platte county, voto for the A. & N. bonds on next Saturday ; let none of the U. P. workers dictate tho way you shall vote; do your own think ing and do your own voting at the polls; vote for tho A. & N. bonds, aud have a competing lino with the U. P., and we will get better prices for our produce in the future. Truth. THE IOWA POOL AND JAY GOULD. Neither of Them does Business for Nothing. J. R. Meagher, agent of the U. P. at this station, made a statement in his communication iu last week's Journal, which needs a fuller ex position than wc had space for at that time. In reply to him we as sumed that what ho said was entire ly true, aud then showed that it was to our interest to havo a competing road. Mr. Meagher said that on through grain to Chicago the U. P. gavo the Iowa pool 30 cts. out of3Sa hun dred. Doubtless, Mr. Meagher's books show just theso rates, aud he him self affects to believe that Gould is compelled to "knuckle down" to the Iowa pool, but he states the matter very ingeniously. "When a witness is sworn, the formula is that he shall tell the truth, the tohole truth, and nothing but the truth. Mr. Meagher tells the truth so far as he goes. His books show rates ou grain from Co lumbus to Chicago 38 cts. a hundred pounds ; from Columbus to Council Bluffs 1G; Columbus to Omaha 11; Council Bluffs to Chicago 30. In considering theso figures (which we get from Mr. Meagher himself) how must they be interpreted? "We can not leave out of the discussion the fact that tho bridge from Omaha to Council Bluffs is a part of the U. P. road just the same as their bridge spanning the Loupe west of us is a part of their road, and over which they have no more right to charge extra mileage rates than they have over the Loup bridge. Now, then, how does the matter stand? Graiu rate to Chicago from this depot is 38 eta. From here to Council Bluffs is 10 cts., leaving the Iowa pool 22 cts. In making this deduction from the figures, wc havo as good a right to assume that the U. P. get 1G out of the 38, as Mr. Meagher has to assume that the pool get 30 out of the 3S. According to Mr. Meagher's way of reckoning, Gould has been allow ing the Iowa pool to make him a cat's paw, a go-between, in robbing us of 8 cts. a bushel to Council Bluffs. "Wc are satisfied that it is the latter; that Gould gets a divide on all through freight passing out of or iuto his care at Council Bluffs. Doubtless he has been compelled to put up with a much smaller share of the pool rate than he would like to have, and heuco seeks to bring the Iowa roads to his terms by threatcuiug to go round them altogether by completing the 25 mile gap from Grand Island to Hastings, and go over the St. Joe & Denver, the Hannibal and the "Wa bash Hues. On this route he can carry all west of Grand Island aud all cast of Toledo, but the man who believes that Gould don't receive a good rouud sum for delivering 6uch an immense amount of freight as he does to the Iowa pool lines, is pretty callow, aud James Meagher is not a last year's chickeu by any means. The truth is, beyond doubt, that Gould receives just the same out of the 3S as he docs wheu shipped to Council Bluffs, viz. 10 cts., but the instructions to station agents make it look otherwise. When wo get the A. & N. wo shall not be under the thumb of the the U. P. or the Iowa pool either, but will have two raud competing markets, Chicago aud St. Louis, with eight compctiug roads from the Missouri river. Grain is now 25 cts. a hundred from Lincoln to Chicago, GOO miles. With the added miles this would be 2S' cts. from Columbus as against 38 by the U. P. Vote for the A. & N. "U. P. LOCAL FRIEGHTS." The Otber Side. I hold a freight bill made out and receipted iu the bold, dashing hand writing of my friend Meagher, which reads as follows : "S, C. & P. car 151, Lumber, weight 2i"00 lbs. 'Back charges' from St. Paul, 3Iin to Fremont distance 420 miles ?GC.00,' 'our charges.' from Fremont to Columbus, distance 45 miles, '? 13.1'." Moral : Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones. James Bell, David City. FARMERS TO THE RESCUE. IScncdiet Arnold Working Tor Our Oppressor. Editor Journal: As you will very likely discover before you read this through, I am not a uowspapor writer, but as a farmer and tax payer I would like to ask the friends of that soulless corporation, the U. P., what will wc gain suppose the U. P. builds all or part of the wild cat roads surveyed and promised through this county ? The maiu lino of the U. P., like the deadly Upas tree withering everything within its influence, now finds advocates for an extension of its cursed branches up through this fair coun try. Aro they not satisfied with tho bondage wo havo experieuced in the past from the extortions of tho U. P., and now that a helping hand is extended to us they seek to mako our bondage perpetual by opposing our true friends from tho southeast and encouraging moro links to the galling chain we havo worn for years. Let all the natural road beds iu this county (tho valleys) be mo nopolized by tho U. P., and what will the county amount to? Bene dict Arnolds in our midst may work, directly and indirectly, in the interests of our oppressor, but all true friends of the people who ex pect to make this their home for the future will stand by tho bonds of tho A. & N., even though the U. P. has to pay part of them. Farmer. For the Journal. Can Jny (xould IJuy llio A. Sc Ti.'i The employees of the U. P. com pany, now canvassing this county for tho purpose of defeating the A. & N. bonds, are very industri ously circulating the report that Jay Gould has been negotiating for the A. & N. road and is able to buy it if he wishes. They further claim that the A. & N. is a little branch road and cannot stand alone if the great railroad gambler wants it. Now, is this so ? In tho first place the company that owns the A. & N. owns 1300 miles of road, every part of which is necessary to make the whole worth anything. Eighty per cent, of this stock is owned by Na thaniel P. Thayer and his family, of Boston. Mr. Thayer also owns a controling interest in the great Fort Scott coal fields, and those immense interests depend for their valuo on tho A. & N. road. Now is it likely that these wealthy Bostonians are going to place their great coal prop erty at the mercy of Jay Gould, by selling the road that makes it valu able? No, that is not likely; and these same U. P. employees have been instructed to tell the people that Jay Gould can force them. The next question is can that little scheme be carried out? In the first place, Jay Gould is a railroad slock gambler, and never bought a share of stock as a legitimate investment in his life. He buys railroad stock as a gambler bets on a corner, and never to improve its intrinsic value, lie is variously estimated to be worth from one to five millions of dollars, but tho great commercial agencies refuse to report him be cause they cau:t tell whether he is worth a dollar or not. Now who is N. P. Thayer, lie is the richest aud most honored man in Boston. For years the head of the Chinese tea trade, he accumulated immense wealth. Some years ago he got out of the shipping business, and invested money in the Fort Scott coal fields. But coal property at the mercy of a railroad amounts to nothing, so the coal king bought stock in several railroads and to-day owns nearly all tho stock iu the A. & N. Unlike Jay Gould, he has wealth that can bo rated, and Duun Barlow & Co., the great mercantile agency of New York aud Bostou, estimate his wealth from thirty-four to thirty-six millions. This gentle man is not a stock gambler like Gould, but as fine a representative of tho old Puritau merchant as the old Bay State can produce. He wants to build the A. & N. road through to Columbus and then through our county to sell his coal, and it is because he will sell this coal from five to six dollars per tou that Jay Gould's servants make such infamous assertions to our farmers. This is why James North, the U. P. coal dealer, is so busy, and this is why the man who burns coal oucht to be busy on Saturday next voting for tho A. & N. road. Men of Massachusetts and there aro some of them among us you kuow that what I say of the Thay ers is true. You know that their word is sacred and wheu they say that Jay Gould can't buy the A. & N., that promise is as good as a bond. Tell this to the men who don't kuow so much about the mat ter as you do aud Jay Gould will no longer have the farmers and merchants of Platte county by the throat. Fair Play. The greenbackcrs of Ohio met in State convention on the 4th and nominated the following ticket: governor. Gen. A. S. Piatt; lieuten ant governor, Hugh Pryor; auditor, Andrew Boy; treasurer, Charles Jenkins; supreme judge, Charles Jackson ; attorney general, James C. Crogan ; member of public works, George W. Piatt. Judge Emerson, of Salt Lake, on the 2d, sentenced the polygamist John Miles, to pay a fine of $100, aud be confined in tho Nebraska penitentiary for live years. PJLATTE COUNTY "SOL,II."

I also desire to say that the $68,000 cancelled taxes of the U. P. R. 11. Co. for 1871, 1872, 1S73 aud 1874, along with about $22,000, now duo from the B. & M. R. R.

Journal: Tho Compton corn referred to in your last paper has been raised by me for the past two years, aud was exhibited last Fall at what professed to bo our County fair, but which iu reality was nothing but a horse race; I raised at that time 10 bushels of shelled corn to tho acre ou breaking, for which it is well adapted hard ening in 80 to 90 days from planting. It is of the flint variety, and, there fare, not so saleable, but well adapted to short seasons or late planting. I strongly doubt if 200 bushels have ever been raised to the acre. My seed was obtained from the agent of tho originator aud I be lieve it to be genuine, and if any one wishes to try it, I can furnish a limited amount on more reasonable terms thau quoted by your corres pondent.
