Itisiuff, ieiing; Editor Journal: In my last I promised to note improvements in our busy little city. A little over one year back, it was scarcely dreamed of by any one; now the buildings extend one hundred and twenty rods north and south, and pretty close together on each side of the main street; and some forty rods east and west. Pretty well for a one year old. Is it not? Tho building this fall has been nearly all on the north side of the railroad, and consists of a fine large residence built by Mr. Thelcn, the partner in the drug store with Dr. Euglchard ; this firm has also built a large fur niture store. Dr. Euglchard has built a large and costly residence, and moved a good hou9C into town, to rent; a good house has been built b' an employee of the 11. It- Co. A good meat-market building has also been put up, and doing a fair busi ness. Mrs. Uencdict has built a good building which she occtipies as a residence and millinery estabhsh mcut, A. It. Day has built a livery stable north of his hotel; a bakery has been built, and now is in opera tion; and a nice building is now nearly completed, to be occupied by our harness maker, as residence, sale and work-room. The Congrega tionalism have their church building nearly finished, and there are quite a large number of other buildings of more or less importance, besides ad ditions to others. Mr. Turnci you would not know the country through which you drove that Mock of sheep some years back, were you to pass through it to-day. The amount of grain handled here is far ahead (1 have been informed by those who ought to know) of any other point on the road; tho business done in "fat porkers" is also very large; and this large business of course makes business not only lively, but also very profitable to all of our merch ants that aro doing business here. A very large amount of corn is now An excursion train pas-cd over the new extension of the E. V. It. It. from Battle Creek to Oakdalc, Sun day. It was an occasion that caused the people to feel jubilant. An oil mill and rope manufac tory will be built on the Cedar next summer, if there Bhculd be good prospects for next year's-flax crop, the seed for which has already been distributed. Argus. The contract for building the wing of the Stale House was let to "Boss" Stout, of Lincoln, last week. Messrs. Kilpatrick & Co., of Beat rice, had in a lower bid, and their bonds were signed by men repre senting over $150,000; but the fat must be kept in the ring, so Stout was awarded the contract. Leader. "We believe that Omaha will this year prepare a larger quantity of sugar cured hams thau any other city of its size in the United States. The sales of our packing firms ex tend to the mountain region and the Pacific coast, also in Now Orleans and Cuba. "Nebraska Hams" have become household words in the markets. Portolio. The Omaha packing houses are all ruuuing at full blast at present. The weather is all that could bo de sired, aud hogs arc coming in quite freely. James E. Boyd killed last year (Hi,000, aud this year will reach 100,000. Jtoddis & Thrall, the sec ond house in capacity, aro now kill ing 250 per day, aud aro prepared to increase their work as fast as thoy can get supplies of hogs to work on. Portfolio. Messrs. Roberts and Boston came from Iowa last woek and determin ed to start a now banking house and purchased the property of J. B. Parrolt for that purpose; and ou Monday a meeting was called to invite Mr. Fred Gassman to enter the same kind of business which will make three banking houses in our city. No one need say that there is any fear of a monopoly in that business. Schuyler Democrat. With a vote in 1SS0 of 100,000, Nebraska will take a seat several places higher in tho National spell ing class, aud begin to carry a little more weight in "Washington than she has for the past ten years.

AVo had the pleasure of seeing some peach trees Town and treated in this manner by F. M. Vancil, Bloomington, Frank Iiu county, this State. The trees were on high open prairie, bore fruit this season, and were filled with well developed fruit buds for uext year. Another feature of peach culture in Nebraska is, that this sea son our best fruitage has been in the Ulterior portions of tho State over ono hundred miles west from tho Missouri river, on our high prairies. We refer particularly to Clay and Franklin counties, where we have visited in person. Wo are pleased loo, to know that actual experience h verifying a prediction wo made years ago, that fruit can be success fully grown in all parts of the State.

A cornet band has been organized, and after a little more practice, our city will have fine music on all necessary occasions. That jeweler that wc need here (pardon me, Mr. Editor, but it is the first time wc have had to ask twice through the Journal, for the thing we need) can have a corner in one of our best stores. Now will he come ? Why Not. FLAX. Wc hope that our farmers will, this winter, agitate the subject of raising flax, and arrive at some sal factory conclusion, the result of , which will be, that before seed time ;we Ehall see them investing in flax seed. Farmers must sow something a else beside wheat, oats and barley if they would reach the goal for which they arc striving, namely : Wealth and Independence. And one of the ' 6urcst plans lies in diversity of crops. Sow flax seed, and Harvard and other towns in the couuty will reap rope walks. It is nonsense to send abroad for a single pound of rope, when wc have everything at hand 'to make just as good au article as can be manufactured anywhere, and for as low price. And another point to bo gained will be au increased demand for everything they can raise, for the men who are required to manufacture the rope will need something to live upon. ; The crv is often raised bv far- ? ... ... ...- ;mers, "Uiu mere is no use oi my ! going outside of grain, there is no demand ior auyiumg, anu not even J for the whcrt and barley we raise, j sufficient to give us a decent price." This is a weak argument indeed! Raise less wheat, barley, oats, etc., and devoto part of your time to I nnnt Iiincr p so. ami von will not i,3umv..M...r , j ..--- 'only get an increased price for your grain, but you will more than be rec ompensed by a flow of money from other sources. Is the experiment worth trying or will you continue to plod along in the same old chan nel and come out at the end of each vea'rindebt? It is a fact that all farmers cannot be successful cattle and sheep raisers, but all can com- rnd means sufficient to become large flax groxrert Harvard Sentinel Messrs. Clarkson have originat ed a boom of their own. It's the hay business, and a genuine boom it is. They average three cars per day from this placo, and about one and a half cars from Richland. They have four machines at work with a combined capacity of forty tons per day. We learn from Mr. T. S. Clarkson that hay in the Lcadrillo market is worth the enormous figuro of .$150 per ton. This market they are prevented from reaching through their inability to secure transporta tion. Schuyler Sun. Wc arc informed by R. D. Bab cock, that the planting of cotton wood and box alder trecB on lands ombraccd in timber-culture entries is not a compliance with the act of June 14, lS7S,or of which it is amen datory. In nearly ever case in this county, parties have plauted tho va rieties of trees above referred to. This decision was made by the Sec retary of the Interior lately, aud parlies having T. C. Entries will do well to be on their guard, as nearly every outry under this act is liable to be contested. Hastings Gazette We learn from parties just in from the Republican Valley that the report prevails in that section, aud is believed to be true, that the B. &. M. surveying party have found a nine foot vein of coal, equal in qual ity to the celebrated Wyoming, in the extreme western part of this state. The citizeus of tho valley are jubilant in consequence, as well thoy may be, for if true, it will give thorn cheap fuel, as soon as tho road is complete to where the miue is lo cated, and materially reduce the price iu this vicinity. Harvard Sen tinel. This season MJncIe" Bailey, of Ord, Valley county, has the pleasure of eating fruit from his own orchard. A number of his trees, standard and transcendents, bore, which is still additional proof of that success which will attend the labors of any careful person who interests him himself in fruit trees. Mr. Bailey is of the opinion that only a careful study of the nature of our climate, and of the soil, and the advantage of that knowledge is necessary to insure success. He has a grove on three sides of his orchard, aud is now preparing to plant a grove on the south, to give it that protection, which he considers necessary to in sure the safety of his treos. The experience of those who aro success ful is worthy of notice. Howard Co. Advocate. Col. R. W. Furnas says this about raising peaches in this State: "We are pleased to see a practical exemplification of our theory of treating peach trees, besides on our grounds. We say our theory. It is ours. It is an old theory long prac ticed by most successful peach cul turists. That is heading back keeping low head trees. To simply cut back in early September or late A PARABLH. Two men were neighbors, and each of them had a wife and sovcrallitlle children, and noithcr of them had anything but his own labor for their support, une ot tuesc men as ill at ease within himself, saying: "If I should die, or if I should fall sick, what would become of my wife and children?" And this thought novcr quitted him, and it knawed his heart, as tho worm kuaws tho hoart of the applo in which it lies buried. Whilo the same thought camo in like manner to the other father, he never Btoppod thero, for said ho, "God, who knows all his creatures, and keeps a loving watchcare over them ; God will wafck over me, and ray wife and little ones." And so it camo to pass that this man lived happily, while tho other nofcr tasted a monism's rcposo nor a hoartfolt joy. Ono day while he was working in tho fiold, sad and depressed in spirit, becanso of his fear, ho saw -some birds fly into a bush, come out, aud soon aftor go back again. Drawing near ho saw two nests, built side by side, and in each several little unfledged birds. After he had returned to his work from time to time he lifted up his eyes, and watched the birds, who were coming and going, bearing food to the little ones. But while he was looking, only a moment after ono of the mothers had brought hor beak full, a hawk swooped down and bore her away in his talons ; and shrill were tho cries that poor moth er uttered struggling vainly under his grasp. At this sight the laborer felt his soul more troubled than before; for said ho "The death of the mother is the death of tho little ones just so mine have only me What will become of them if I an taken away?" All that day he was sad and sorrowful, and that night he could not sleep. On tho morrow, returning to tho field, ho said, "I long to see tho lit ones of that poor mother. Most of them arc without doubt already dead." And he bent his steps to ward the bush. Looking, he was astonished to see them all looking hale and strong not one had even pined. Wondering above measure, he hid himself to see what would come to pass. After a littlo time, he heard a gentle cry aud saw tho second mother bringing in haste, tho food she had gathered. Perched on the twig she divided to all tho little ones alike. Slio had enough for all. The orphans were uot neg lected in their misfortune. In the evening, the father, who had so distrusted Providence, "told the other father what he had seon. And the other one said, "Why are you anxious? God never forsakes his children. His love has resources which we do not understand. Let us have faith ; let us hope on, let us lore ono another, let ue journey on our ways of lifo in peace. If I die before you, yon will care like a father for my children ; if you die firaf, I will be a father to yours ; and oven if we both die, boforo they are old enough to take care of themsel ves, they will have for their father the Father which is in Heaven." Prom the French of Lamennais. John Wesley once was troubled in regard to the disposition of the various sects, and the chances of each in reference to future happi ness or punishment. A dream one night transported him in its uncer tain wanderings to the gates of hell. "Are there any Roman Catholics here?" asked the thoughtful Wes ley. "Yes," was the reply. "Any Presbyterian1!?"' "Yes," was again the answer. "Any Congregationalists?'' J. b3 "Any Methodists," by way of a clincher, asked the pious Wesley. "Yes," was answered to his great indignation. In the mystic way of dreams, a sudden transition, and he stood at tho gates of heaven. Improving his opportunity, ho again inquired: "Aro thero any Roman Catholics here ?" "No,"' was replied. "Any Presbyterians !" "No." "Any Congregationalists ?" "No." "Any Methodists?" "No." "Well, then," ho asked, lost in wondor, "who are they inside?" "Christians!" was tho jubilant answer.

The conversation turning upon Icadinp; rebels, Mr. Weed relnted an anecdote of considerable historic in terest. "When," said he, "California was about to be admitted to the Union, the slaveholders' party in congress, as you know, were deter mined that the state should not have a free-state constitution. Then, on the floors of congress, Toombs and Stephens, of Georgia, threatened what really took place in 1S61. About that lime I called on Presi dent Taylor at the white house, and he said to me: 'Did you see those d d traitors when you camo in ?' I replied thai I had seen some gentle men, Messrs. Toombs, Stephens and a North Carolina senator. 'Well,' said President Taylor, 'those were the men I meant. But tho biggest conspirator of all didn't dare to come.' I asked him who that was, and the president answored, '-My son-in-law, Jefferson Davisl'" JV. T. Cor. Boston Herald. A poetess sings : "Tho' I wero dead my hoart would beat for thee."
