For till'. IouknauI An Sxtr!.tIiK Irllr frmn . tVaiIins: Typo. Omaha. Xcb., Now . 1879. Left my adopted home on Thurs daya hotuc Ihau whom wa nothing- more dear lhan that where I waa boru, "Columbus." Kever enca almost amounting to worship will kindle the finest feelings of my heart and stir the very cockles thereof, when my fluctuating mem ory carries me back to the banks of the angry Loup. It ia more than five years ago that I outcrcd, what was to mo a frontier town, coming as I did from the midst of civilization and refined city society. I expected to meet nothing but a rud and uncivilized community, but to my agreeable surprise I made the acquaintance of an industrious, intelligent, and an accomplished set of people that would do credit to those moro fa vorably situated in a geographical seuse. Columbus, situated near the junction ot the combined branches of the Loup aad the consolidated br&nchM or the Platte with all thoir respective tributaries, is destined to became one of the great marls of American iutorior commerce. Why ? Not bocause her citizens may be more energetic than those of noigh boliug cities and towns, uot becauio she wields wealth beyoud the reach of any rival, but simply bccaHBC she is the pioneer city oi the desert," and her best inhabitants have sulTcrcd all the privationB of frontier life paving tho way for those that might, or did, follow, and enjoy the fruits of their labor in peace without being subjected to the turmoils experienc ed by those who came bofore them. Arriving at Schuyler 1 called upon the Hon. J. T. Clarkson. On meeting him, I found nothing strange to nolo, as he is, over was, and always will bo a cultivated gen tleman. The town has grown con siderable since my last visit, and bids lair, by tho development of the surrounding country, to become a prosperous county soat.doiug double credit to Schuyler and Colfax which will, no doubt, bo acceptable to our ex-Vice President. Here, under the treatment of Ch. Pruyu, late ot your city, we found ourselves rocuporated aud fit fer au other day's journey. Reaching North Bond, it seemed impossible for me to pass through without giviug it some special men tion. This was the business-home of our late Statu Souator, Crawford. I felt a disappointment in not moot ing him. Tho great feature, aud most notable improvement to be seen is tho residence of J. W. Stew artit is truly a palace of wood, standing upon as line a site as could be selected this side of tho llocky mountains. Ho! for Fremont. On entering this town I could easily distinguish that it was not the From out of 6ix years ago. Many beautiful blocks of brick, and four times the amount of single buildings of the same ma terial havo been erected, contribu ting greatly to the beauty of tho place. One thing particularly uo tico&blo was tho sparsit' of teams upon tho Erects as compared with Columbus. Of course I called at the Occidental hotel, whero I found our friend Nicholls, the proprietor, at his post. He, indeed, has been got up to order for a landlord of which the Occidental aud all its appointments bear testimony. I vis ited Br. Smails, of the Herald, also thfv Tribune office, but found busi aeia very dull. I noticed nothing particularly worthy of noto until I reached old Papilliou. Here I interviewed my frioBd, Mr. Kennedy, oditor of the Timet. - He is post-master, and as a matter of course, gives satisfaction to all, excepting himself. In trust ing to him, as a public servant, it is his nature to become a slave, if ucc eaeary, for tho public good. Ho is truly a thoroughbred. The business management of tho printing offico has recently been changed, and Mr. Carpenter, well known to ninny of your readers, assumes control of the working department. He can and j will fill the bill. While here I was " the guest of my old comrade-in-arms, Louis Lessuor, of the Papil ! lion House, who greeted me with ' gladness and exteuded to me the hospitalities ol his hostclcry. I can cheerfully recommend his establish ment to those who may make a sojourn at Papilliou. The purpose of this my letter is not intended for personal mention myself or otherwise, but on arriv ing at Omaha, on the banks of the Big Muddy, I cannot refrain from making a few remarks on our old and respected citizen Mr. P. OToole. He ha?, through the skill of excel lent workmou, completed the im 'provements of his business estab 1 lishmcut, situatod on the corner of 13th and Haruoy streets. It is uu necewary here for mo to state the amouBt of tasto aud order he pos sesses. Language fails me to ex press the beauties of architectural taste be has displayed in his selec tion in adorning the walls of his palace in miniature suffice it to say , that Bothing morojjnieae nothiug looking more comfortable or drawing-room like can be found in the west than this pleasant resort now opened to tho patronage of the pub lic. Town readers need not be in , formed that hit stock in every jlepartmeat has been carefully se eded by hiaeelf which is a guaran tee that they are genuine. I was 8omewhafdiBappointed in my expectations as I rambled thro' the streets of this, the metropolitan city ol our State. 1 had formed an idea from reading article published in the papers issued here lh.it .the had tuade gigantic strides iu the vn of improvement. It is true that the city has growu a great deal, numer ically speaking and some very fine blocks have taken the place of old rookeries, but after all it is uot the Omaha I expected to see. There are gas-works hero, but I only have it from information. At nights the streets arc iu sombre darkness, and every printing office, and from ob servation, the majority of the busi ness houses burn oil-lamps. I have met but few acquaintances here. I called upon the Herald aud received a hearty welcome at tho hands of Mr. Donnelley, its popular local oditor. I also enjoyed a hearty shako with Mr. Blackburn of the Jtepubliean, in which establishment Jack and I set a few cms under tho ablo supervision of Mr. Reese, the foreman of the job department. To me it appears as though all business was too well represented. Every thing seems to be overdone. There is to my eye as a stranger, a super fluity in overy branch, particularly in the "art preservative." If Omaha should improve as per newspaper report she may iu few years boast of good side-walks, less shanties aud a better tone in general business. When I find out anything new de pcudjpon it I shall only be too glad to inform the Jourkal for the ben efit of my absent friends Us read ers, c. a. . For the Joukxal. Tobacco. The ttho of tobacco is too costly a habit for a poor man to indulge in, yet many a one does, who is uot able to keep a cow, aud whose fam ily lacks not only the luxuries of life, but also mauy of the necessaries theroof ! Aud whoovcr he may bo, even though a church member, he is "as cross as a bear" whenever ho is out of tobacco! Yes, just as sour and cross in his family "as though he had been brought up in the shade, under the north side of a crab-apple tree!" Aud as to the tilthiiiess of the habit, no one can deny that. What a sickening sight is to be seen in every store around the stove? But if a merchant should venture to say a word to them about it, they would go oil' iu a hull, aud trade somewhere else. Some meu spit on the floor aud stove- at home! Is that agreeable for mother, sister or wife? And is it nice work to empty and clean their filthy spittoons? And as to tho hcalthfulncss of to bacco, Dr. Uunn, who is known to havo been a learned aud skillful physician, says : "Tho habit of smok ing, chewing, and e nulling tobacco, have become so universally preva lent, and their effects on the body and mind so obviously injurious, that we feel it to be a duty to do all iu our power to speedily remove this barrier to physical reform and improvement. The severe aud dys peptic symptoms and diseases of the liver, lungs, stomach, aud nervous system, arc produced in inveterate s nu 11' takers, chewcrs aud smokers, from the efl'octs of the Oxalic acid. Aud could wc draw back the cover ing of the tomb, aud shew what tobacco has done iu shortening hu man life, it would surprise us that man, the image of his Maker, en dowed with reason, should have consented thus to destroy himself both montally aud physically." He says also, (aud we all know it to be true), that "with very few excep tions, every drunkard is a tobacco chewer, for tho hankering for the one generally leads to the other." He says "liquor aud tobacco go hand in baud in the work of destruction," and that it is his "candid opinion that the use of tobacco is the great est obitaclo existing, to the progress of temperance, and never will alco holic drinks be discarded as a bev overagc, until tobacco ceases to be used as a luxury." He says " there are som"c who suppose that tobacco cannot be very injurious to the body or miud, because (hero arc mauy who have used it from childhood to an advanced age. It is this mode of reasoning that has blinded the minds of thousauds iu relation to spirituous liquors, as well as tobac co. The reason why some individ uals use them without appareut injury, i because they have consti tutions of iron." x. v. z. oTcr- Well, Hardly Ever." Never insult poverty. Never cat betweeu meals. Never eat a very hearty supper. Nevor staud long at the corner of a street. Never fret ; it will only shorten your d ay r. Never slop to talk in church after tho service is over. Never speak of your pareuts as the "old man" or "old woman." Never speak in a contemptuous manner of womankind. Never abuse one who was once your bosom frieud. Never reply to the epithet of a fool, a drunkard, or a low fellow. Never seek to create a laugh at tho expense of religion or the Bible. Never spend many of your even ings away from your family. Never taste au atom when you are not huugry ; itrhs-jnicidal. Never uticipatik"rj(Wcb ; dis appointment iB not pleasant? No, m son. cheek is not better than wi.doiu;il is not better than honest modesty, it is not better than anything. Don't listen to the siren who tells you to blow your own ham or it will never be tooted upon. Tho world is not to be deceived by cheek, and it does search for merit, aud when it finds it merit is re warded. Chock never deceives the world, sou. It appears to do so, to the cheeky man, but he is the one who is deceived. Do you know one cheeky mau iu all your acquaintance who is not reviled for his cheek the moment his back is turned? Is not the world continually drawing dis tinctions between cheek and merit? Almost everybody hates the cheeky man, my son. Society tires of tho brassy glare of his face, the hollow tinkling of his cymballine tongue, the noisy assumption of his forward ness. The triumphs of cheek are only apparent. Ho bores his way along through the world, and fre quently belter people give way for him. But so they give way, my boy, for a man with a paint-pot in each baud. Not because they res pect the mau with thepaiut-pots, particularly, but because thoy want to tako care of their clothes. Avoid cheek, my son. You can sell goods without it; aud your custo mers won't run aud hide iu the cel lar when they see you coming. Burlington Hawk-eye. How to Get Along. Dou'tatopto tell stories iu busi ness hours. If you have a place of business be found there when wanted. No man can get rich by silting around stores and saloons. Never fool in buBiuoss matters. Have order, system, regularity, aud also promptness. Do not meddle with business you know nothing of. Do not kick every one iu your path. More miles can be made iu one day by goiug steadily than by stopping-Pay as you go. A mau of honor respects his word as he does his bond. v Help others when you can, but never give what you cannot a fiord because it is fashionable. Learn to say no. No necessity ot snapping it out dog-fashion, but say it firmly and respectfully. Use your own brains rather than those of others. Learn to think aud act for your self. Keep ahead rather than behind the limes. A Western New York farmer, in the Country Gentleman, says that the corn growth ou his farm is from the same that has been planted from year to year for the past eighty years, and by a careful selection of seed each year, it has greatly im proved, and now yields very much more than it did at first; that it yields him sixty bushels per acre, and that he has gathered it well matured ninety-live days after plant ing. He further states that he has re-sown the same oats grown on his farm for the past thirty years. A little boy once stood gazing thoughtfully into the sky, and upon his father inquiring what he was looking for, was found philosoph izing on "how God got him down here when ho was made up in the sky." "Bill, you young scamp, if you had your just due, you'd get a good whippiug." "I know it daddy; but bills arc not always paid when due." The father trembled lest his hope ful sou should be snatched from him. Captain Sousley, for many years the proprietor of the Transfer and Ferry Company, of Nebraska City, contemplates removing to Platts moutli, and taking charge of the fer ry aud transfer iutorcsts of that city. Under the new election law, which is now iu force, the polls on olection day will open at eight o'clock in the morning, and close at six in the evening.
