Neighboring towns are pretty generally making preparations for ceiobrnting the 4th. The oxciirion train from Osce ola, the first to that place, was con ducted by A. Drew. Columbus is beginning to think that there is no use in having two Fourths of Jul in one year. Jacob Ernst has the best large piece of corn we havo seen In our travels during the past week. The population of Columbus has been increased by a few of the colored refugees from the south. Our partriotic ucighbors of Boone county intend celebrating the lth in grand old style at Albion. Spocial forms of blank notes ami receipts printed and bound on short notice at the Joukxal office. That portion of Platte county known as Stearns Prairie is as fine a looking country as lies out of doors. Farmers arc attonding strictly to business those days, and in con sequence not so many teams on the stroots. The past week has brought to this locality an abundance of rain, which will bring forward all manner of crops. J. M. Honnahau has moved his stock of boots and shoes to Olive strcot, one door south of F. Brod fuchror'g. Real estate in Platte couuty is "up." Not a farm but is worth ten to fifty per cent, more than it was a wcok ago. Send the news abroad thit Co lumbus is going to keep up her reputation for being the "boss"' town for business. J. R. Kinnan, of Butler county, loft at the Joukxal oflicc Saturday, a splendid article of Strawberries, large and luscious. Fire, fire, fire crackers, torpc doos, flags, pistols, guns, cannons, drums, ctt., at E. D. Fitzpatrick's opposite post office. The Butler County Press says that Andrew Simpson of Marengo, la., is about to locate in Columbus in the practice of the law. The David City base ball club will play a "picked nine" of the Co lumbus boys at the Engine nouse square to-morrow at 2 o'clock. How to procure the coveted quarter for the coming circus will occupy the minds of Columbus juvoniles for the next few days. "We have been so busy with other matters during the last week that the readers of the Joukxal will find it rather short of locals. Scarcely a day passes that docs not witness several "prairie schoon ers" passing through the city con taining settlers for the great west. y If you want to keep out flics and bugs, go to Iluuncmau's and order a screen door.

Mrs. Reynolds & Hadley receiv ed, yesterday, a line assortment of trimmed hats, from New York City. Ladies call and sec them. First arrival on the A. & N. A. J. Arnold has just received a large invoice of the Rock ford quick train R. R. watches. Freights down. Bureaus.lounges, rocking-chairs pictures, safes, and everything in the furniture line at F. Gcrber's on 11th St., one door cast of Ilcinlz's drug store. The Columbus Dramatic Socie ty is not dead neither does It sleep. "Wo shall hear from them again, shortly, perhaps about the 4th of July. D. D. "Wadsworth has begun the erection of a business building on 11th street, second lot west of "Wea ver's to be used as a photograph gallery. The Adams & "Westlake improv ed oil stove is the only one indorsed by the Insurance and Fire Depart ments of Chicago. John "Wiggins sells them. Tho corn crop looks splendid in nearly ever portion of Platte coun ty a good stand, even growth, healthy color, and remarkably free from weeds. J. "W. "Witchey says that all the U. P. men look as though they had got hold of the wrong bottle and had swallowed a bottle of castor oil in stead of wine. New post offices have been es tablished at Conklin, iu Polk county, with John Morrow post-master ; and Lost Crock, Platte rounty, with J. H. "Watts, post-master. All kindR of rumors have been afloat since the election, as to what the great U. P. R. R. corporation was about to do with Columbus and Columbus business men. The ladies of the Episcopal church will hold their next sociable ht the residence of Mrs. Win. Ilnn neman, Monday eveiiinjr. June 13th. All are cordially invited. Messrs. Simpson & Morrison, from Iowa, have rented, and will occupy the rooms of John McMahon on 11th street, and wili engage in the law and land business. II. J. Neisius was the only U. P. man iu Sherman precinct, working up to nnd ou the day of election, but light dawned upon him at last, and his ballot was cast for the bonds. There will be a regular meeting of the A. O. H., Division No. 1, Platte count', at their Hall, Sunday next, June 22d, at 12 o'clock, M. All members are requested to attend. The Messrs. Wcntworth recent- ly oi Wisconsin are located m Gluck's building one door cast of his stoiv, and are about to begin the publication of a Democratic paper. Farmers, if you want good, heavy young tennis of mules, call on Dan. Condon at D. Ryan's stables. Will sell or trade for cattle cheap, and part on time with good security. Sheriff Hill of David City is the banner sheriff for catching horse thieves. He has lately recovered five head of stolen horses, and knows of more for which he cannot find owners. Of course the next move on the railroad checker-board will be from the northeast to Columbus, and of course the U. P. will not be idle. If they can possibly "head it off" they will do so. Hunnoman feels somo gratifica tion in the fact that tho benefits to be derived from tho A. & X. were forced upon him by such an over whelming majority 902 votes moro than were necessary. Another unknown friend, living in the vicinity of Kcatskotoos, sent us Monday evening a large cat fish, weighing over 40 pounds. Many thanks, until we know how to make better compensation. Transfers in city real estate have been very lively since the A. & N. bonds carried. John Early was got out at six o'clock Monday morning by applicants for city lots in the Court House square. N. MilleU sold last week to G. Ilcllborn the south half of lots land 2 in Stevens's addition, and the north half of the same lots to Robt. G. Clark. Both these gentlemen ex pect to build shortly. A genuine mocking-bird night ly carols among the groves in tho southeast part of the city. Can it be that the birds of the "sunny south" are going to become refugees and seek the beautiful west? A car-load of the celebrated Dewey Harvesters just received at A. W. Lawrence's. Remember this is the boss harvester, and the one that sold so readily and gave such universal satisfaction last year. Mr. McGowen showed us Mon day a very nice photograph view of a part of the city, taken by himself, from the top of the U. P. water tank. The elevation was not high enough to obtain a view of tho northern part of the city. If you have lightning rods upon your buildings sec that they arc in sulated properly and in perfect con dition in every respect; otherwise they arc liable to attract the electric ity to the destruction of property aud tho endangering of life. Piuntek Boy Wanted. The Jouknal oflicc desires to engage a boy who has a fair English educa tion, is bright and intelligent, neat and cleanly, careful and trustworthy, and who has a desire to become a first-class printer. Call soon. Pete Shelby, assistant freight agent of the U. P. at Omaha, is a very nice gentleman, and docs his work well at his office in that city, but we beg leave to give it as our candid opinion that he is not the man to electioneer against veterans. A son of Dr. Stillman, of this city, met with a serious accident last Friday evening, while running at full speed to catch another boy with whom he was playing fell against the gate or fence and broke his arm badly iu two places above the elbow joint. We learn from an invitation to attend the commencement exercises of the Nebraska State Normal School that Miss Serena Olson, of this city, will deliver the valedic tory address. This is a deserved honor to one of Columbus's fair daughters. "What means this uproar in the town? This shouting, jostling, running? Tell ilary and her little lamb The elephants are coming." To Columbus, next Wednesday, June 25th, with Anderson & Co's. monster world's menagerie and in ternational circus. If the A. & N. voters of Platte could have seen Post and Sibbets last Friday evening as they came into McAlpin's school house, drench ed to the skin by the heavy rain, they would havo concluded that it was cither necessity or enthusiasm in the cause that brought them out. The Grand Lodge A. O. U. for Nebraska met Saturday lust at the Iv. of 11. hall in this city, and the following officers elected: Richard O'Kccfe. State dclegato; D. Cogan, State scc'y. ; T. C. Ryan, Slate treas urer. The following are the names of dcleiratcs from Omaha: Mr. O'Kccfe, Mr. Cogan, Mr. Burke, Mr. Bowdcl, Mr. Bolin, Mr. McCarthy, aud Mr. Genocn. The following persons were ar rested on Saturday last ou the charge of illegally voting: T. II. Zschook cll, on complaint of G. W. Clothcr; bond for appearance for trial, in the 6um of $300, and case set for to-day at 1 o'clock ; James Ryan, William Ryan, Thos. Pnrionctl, W. II. De Loud and Patrick Gilligau, who also gave bond? for $300 each, cases set for the II) th (to-morrow) at nine o'clock, a. in. The friends of competition in Platte couuty feel grateful to Butler and Seward county men, one and all, for tho enthusiasm which they helped to arouse, aud tho great aid they rendered in making the short, sharp canvass iu this couuty from Tuesday morning last, until Satur day evening. Their interests were with ours and likewise their heads and their hearts. They did most excellent work. We are informed that there is a woman in the southern part of the city, lying very ill with typhoid fever, with no medical or other sufficient attendance and is in a really pitiable condition. Some good Christian lady should interest herself immediately iu her welfare, and we are sure that our cilizeus only need to be called upon to con tribute of their means tor the wel fare of the family, who are said to be worthy iu every respect. The regular campaigners, the old veterans, took an active part in the recent canvass for the A. & N. bonds. Wtiile the public in general believed that nothing was being done, the very best electioneering work was going forward. The com mittee deserve commendation for listening to and heeding every hint, from every quarter, calculated to swell the majorities in favor of com petition, nnd for selecting the proper men for making the cauvass in the several precincts. Messrs. Browne & Hammond are tho present proprietors of the Fremont Tribune. They say they are comparative strangers and solicit assistance from friends of the T'rib- line. Having always felt friendly I toward the paper we suggest to the new-comers to iuquire into its history under Newt. Hayes's editori al management, and look over the old files. If you become-imbued with the spirit that actuated him, there will be no doubt about your success in conducting the Tribune. The railroad affair in Madison is not oui: funeral. Tho Fen and Plow will not stick its nose into the do mestic quarrel. We waut every couuty to have two roads. One is often but little better than none. But we cannot help complaining of the spirit and style of the Chronicle. It is cynical it growls and bristles and snarls at Columbus. A fair statement of the whole case would show that the people of Madison county have received from Colum bus as much favor and profit as that city has from them. The Chronicle is illogical as well as ill-natured. Pen and Plow. Persomil. W. B. Dale started for Madison to-day. A. H. Pickeriug of Chicago is in the city. S. A. Josseleyn and family are ex pected here this week. N. Millett, Esq., is attending court in Butler county. A. N. Burgess is making Albion, Boone Co., a visit this week. J. G. Higgins, and A. M. Post aro in Butler Co. this week on business. W. N. McCandlish was in the city yesterday with his large stock of wool. John Wiggins and family left yes torday morning for a visit to New York state. II. II. Allen of tho 2Tcw West Jfonlhly, Atchison, called on us one day last week. "Coon" Darling came up from Schuyler Saturday, and helped the boys "celebrate" over the bond vic tory. N. Millctt's residence grounds arc now surrounded by a new pick et fence, which adds much to the beauty of the place. J. J. Byrne, dentist, who has been hero for several months, started Monday for Denver. Tho very host wishes of his many friends here accompany him. Martin McMahon and family of Massachusetts arc hero and will soon move to their farm south of J. H. Reed's. Tho dwelling-house is now under contract, by John McAuley. "Jimmy" Cady, ono of the Cadiz boys.droppcd into the Journal office Saturday very unexpectedly. He is in good health, and full of business. He brings news and glad tidings from our friends and acquaintances. He goes from here to the southern part of tho State. -e- Duttt Stcgun. It was rumored on our streets Monday morning that the railroad contest between the U. P. and the A. fc N. for division of transporta tion had only just begun, and that to carry on the contest with some show of success, the Union Pacific R. R. Co. were on the eve of start ing here two newspapers, one Re publican and ono Democratic, for the purpose of worming into the affections of the people. Wc have, in our time, heard of so many new papers starting iu Columbus that we had almost lost interest in such re ports, but this bit of information gives the projects a certain degree of novelty, at least. We have not yet learned who are to be put into the editorial chairs, but of course shall know in due time, if the work goes forward. As the Joukxal and Era have both been preaching com potion in railroad business pretty strongly of late, it is presumed that somebody is interested in compell ing them to swallow a dose of their own physic, with the hope, perhaps, that it will do them good. All we have to say is that if the new papers shall bear the same ratio in public favor as the U. P. did iu tho election Saturday, we should think tho new editors of the new papers would rather servo the general public. The Celebration. Saturday evening was an old-fashioned, redundant celebration of one the complctcst victorios ffver gained by a people. Columbus, in fact.was full of people, happy people, jolly people, talkative people and yelling people, all filled with joy at the re sult of the day's work. Of course there was a bon-firc, and fire-works, with the loud-mouthed anvil's belching voice. Tho Cornet Band furnished some of their choicest strains, and the orators stood forth and voiced the delight of the multi tude Brief, pointed, extempore re marks were made by Sup't. Towne, by Garfield and Sibbctt of Butler, and by Hensley, Whitmoycr, Post, Rickley and Barnum. Those who have been present on any such oc casions can appreciate the situation, and those who have not wouldn't, even if we should fill the colupins of the Joukxal with particulars. - ColiimhiiH Hospitality. About the "loudest" set of boys we have met for a long time are tho mem bers of the Columbus Hand. Besides being one of the best bands in the State, they are the best-hearted and liveliest set of men. To our own band the trip was a glorious visit, and if the distance was less between this and Columbus, wc imagine an exchange of visits would nappeu very often. We clip tho above from the Butler Co. Press. There is no doubt but the band boys all around had a jolly good time ou the occasion mention cd, the only regret on the part of the Columbus Cornet beins that they could not furnish the boys with downy beds to rest their weary bones. Just wait till the comple tion of the A. & N. into Columbus, and you will see a celebration for a fact. -. An Interesting Question. The plat of the new road, as is well known, has been made and filed, showing the route, exactly to the city limits. It becomes an in teresting question whether, under the law, the A. & N. can locate their depot, which they are obligated to operate in the city limits, further than forty rods from the end of their line as surveyed and platted. Good U. P. legal authority (so we are told) holds to the proposition that they cannot. As Loveland would say, "time will tell." The Great Day of Rest ana Itccrcution. Both tho brains and bodies of hard - working men cry daily for rest, until complainiugnature finally breaks beneath tho burden of tho't and toil, and the unheeded voice of warning is stilled forever in the premature grave. Rest and recrea tion are the very handmaidens, of intelligent, successful and profitable labor, aud ho who dismisses them as idle, worthless companions, closes the door against those recuperative agencies, without which tho ma chinery of both mind and body runs with dull, heavy, constantly increas ing friction, and finally suddenly goes all to pieces, like the deacon's celebrated one-horse chaise. Time is valuable in fact, invaluable but not for the slavish pursuit of gain alone. At the needed and proper time it is invaluable for rational relaxation and amusement, and he who teaches his children this, as taught iu the Scriptures themselves, will make of them wiser, and belter, and healthier, and more useful, and more noble men and women. The task-master should not be the solo companion of the old, to make them a burden unto themselves; nor of the young, to make them prema turely old. He should, at tho proper season and within proper bounds, be locked up in the office, tho work shop, the barn aud the school-house, while the world's children, of all ages, go in for a regular, out and out, unrestrained, mirthful holiday. Take our advice, then, and leave the hard-hearted, iron-fisted, wrink led, grimy old curmudgeon there, when Anderson & Co.'s Great World's Menagerie and Interna tional Circus exhibits at Columbus, on Wednesday, June 25th, and if you don't go back to your homes with lighter hearts, clearer heads, strong er hands and sunnier minds, the price of admission will be refunded and all expenses paid. 1Ye:ither Stcport.
