f I f m:kicaska. Uutler Connly. From the Republican. Tally auother for the '-New Magic City," the L. & X. W. track crossed the south line of the corporate limits of the city at half past four ou Jan. G. The L. & X. W. R. II. officials in tend that the well which is being sunk at the depot shall have a capac ' ity of 60,000 gallons of water per day. Large quantities of bridge timber already framed, have passed through town during the past week to be used along the line of the L. & N. W. R. R. between here and Colum bus. The L. & X. W. R. R- will build a "Y" just south of town on "W. E. Garlow's land, and a temporary side-track north of the main track, where they will place their supplies to be used in the extension of the road. From the Tress. To the ppoplc of Columbus: The L. & X. "W. is coming. It is here now. We will soon shake hands across the "bloody" Platte. The long looked for and much hoped for Lincoln & Xorthwestern It. It. is now here. The cross-block of the two railroads was laid yester day, with due solemnity, Road Mas ter Bennett, of the 0. & R. V. being presont. Two side tracks are nearly completed. Work has begun on tho turning Y. The depot carpenters arc at work on the new depot. This building will be eighty fect.-with a platform 150 feet. A large water tank is goiug up. fiuc sand, which in a great measure destroys its value as a fuel, and for this reason he docs not thiuk it will couio into general use, unless by some mechanical meaus this is got tcu rid of. tichobi M66m Requirements. StnutoB County. From the Stanton Register. George Sherlock is badly wanted. Last season he worked the farm of W. T. Baker, situated in the eastern part of Madison county, and resided with Baker's family. A criminal intimacy sprang up between him and Mrs. B., and this state of affairs becoming known to the husband, on last Mouday ho sworo out a war rant for his arrest on a charge of adultery. The young man skipped eastward. Constable Killer, of Mad ison, came into towu yesterday aud put the warrant in the hands of Sheriff Canfield, who immediately started to "Wisuer in pursuit. The young man was engaged to a daugh ter of Mr. Baker. .TIntlifcOR County. From the Chronicle. Mrs. A. C. Tyrrcl died at her mother's home, in Lorain, O., last Mouday morning. It will be re mombered that she went east, last Bpring, to receive medical aid, aud for a time she seemed to be improv ing aud had hopes of getting well, but a telegram received yesterday announced her death. Tho County Commissioners pro cured a ticket and a purse was raised by some of the citizens of Madison, for the purpose of helping the moth er of Louis Ilerr, deceased, to get back to Baltimore, where she de sired to go, preferring to do so, to having tho county keep her the bal ance of her life, she being in desti tute circumstances. Casting: County. From the West Point Progress. From Dr. Thompson we learn that Lew Robinson, of Wisner, met with a paiuful accident Monday. A bottlo containiuing chemicals, which ho was shaking, exploded, aud tho broken glass cut his right hand in a dreadful manner, sovcring ono of tho large veins, from which tho blood flowed freely. Dr. Thompson was called by telegraph, and dressed the injured member. The wound is exceedingly painful, but nothiug se rious is anticipated. Science and tied. Itoone County. From the Argus. Dep't Sheriff Hamilton went all over the Cedar country this week. Ho reports everybody busy plowing. Tho 1st of January, and frost out of the ground, and farmers plowing. "What do our ice-bound eastern friends think of that. From tho News. S. II. Bollman, the son, and well known assistant of our Co. Treasur er, has been called east to Pennsyl vania, by news of the serious illness of a sister, concerning whom her phyztcians have no hope. Colfux County. From the Democrat. Mrs. R. II. Bullock, wife of Mr. R. II. Bullock, Justice of the Peace, of Linwood, Butler Co., and mother of Mr. E. O. Crawford, of Schuyler, diod on Sunday, the 4th inst., of pneumonia. Your correspondent happened to be down at the Shell Creek Mills the other day. Mr. "Welch, the jun ior partner of tho firm, invited us to take a look at his steers which he is now fattening for spring market eighty in number; a finer lot wd never Baw. Ho showed us one four year old steer that weighs sixteen hundred and fifty pounds; also one yearling that tipped tho scales at niuo huudred aud sixteen pounds. Physical considerations do not lead to tho final explanation of all that wo feel and know. "We meet a problem which tran scends any conceivable explanation of the powers which wo now pos sess. Wo may think of tho subject again aud agaiu, but it eludes all intellect ual presentation. Having thus exhausted physics aud reached its very rim, a mighty mystery still looms beyond us. We httve, in fact, made no step toward its solution. We try to soar a vacuum when we endeavor to pass by logical deduction from the ono to the other. Religious feeling is as much a verity as any other part of human consciousness; and against it, on its subjective side, the waves of science beat in vnin. Af could see that his (Carlyle's) kuuauiiuu ui uuuuiu was iiini. 111c human soul has claims aud yearn ings which physical science cannot satisfy. It seems high time to him (Vir chow) to enter nu energetic protest against tho attempts that aro made to proclaim tho problem of research as actual facts, and the opinions of scientists as established science. We ought not, Virchow ures. to represent our conjectures a9 a cer tainty, nor our hypotheses as n doc trine; this.is inadmissible. The burden of my writings in this connection is as much a recognition of the weakness of science as an as sertion of its truth. asked whether scienco had or is likely in our day to solve, the problem of the universe, I must shako my head In doubt. Be hind aud abovo aud around us tho real mystery of the universo lies unsolved aud, as far as wo are con cerned, is incapable of solution. The problem of the connection of body and soul is as insoluble in its modern form as it was in the pre-scientific ages. Ji There ought to be a clear distinc tion made between science in the 01:1 nun fit a 'solved, state of hypothesis and science in the slate of fact. Rnfialo County. From the Kearney Press. Mr. Hcrron, in February, 1S7S, commenced operations as a farmer near Keatney. He sowed 70 acres of wheat backsetting or fall plow ing; SO acres wheat, seeded and harrowed; 40 acres barley, spring plowed ; 8 acres of potatoes. From this he harvested 2,650 bushels of wheat; 1,000 of barley, and 1,030 bushels of potatoes. Between seed time aud harvest, ho broke 190 acres of prairie, aud aftor harvest, cut 420 acres of grain, reimbursing thus the expense of his own crop. In IS' he sowed 300 acres, and in 1SS0 wi bow 750 acres of small grain. To secure an extra crop, why not plant flax? It cau bo sown after wheat, oats, etc., have been planted and can be harvested after these crops are out of the way. The crop pays extremely well whore grown successfully. Mr. Paist, of Buda, plauted last spring on rotted sod, with a broadcast sooder, ten acres of flax, and harvested a crop of 120. bushels, which brought him $1.34 per bushel. If each farmer in our Bccliou would sow from 10 to a 100 acres in flax tho crop would soon induce capitalists to establish an oil mill and factory in this county. Howard County. From the Howard Co. Advocate. Tho last number of the Valley Co. Journal contains an interesting com munication from Dr. Towar, of Ft. Hartsuff, in regard to the peat which exists in Valley county. The doctor has made an analysis, and finds that in some respects it is superior to European peat, in others it is in ferior. It contains about 30 per cent, of ash; this ash contaius the remains of fossilized animalcule aud 1 And, inasmuch as it is still in its hypothetical stage, the ban of ex clusion ought to fall upon the theory of evolution. After speaking of the theory of evolution as applied to tho primitivo condition of matter, as belonging to tho dim twilight of conjecture, the certainty of experimental inquiry is here shut out. Those who hold the doctrine of evolution aro by no means ignorant of tho uncertainty of their data, and they only yield to it a provisional aSBQIlt. In reply to your question thoy will frauklv admit their inability to poiut to any satisfactory experimen A late number of the ducational Weekly, titlav referring to the useless ness, energy, aud activity of Ameri can character as a disease tho drain upon the nervous system being too great, and so forth, urges greater zeal on the part of the teacher, great er enthusiasm in his work; which simply means more goading of tho already over-goaded child. Fever ish preparation for a feverish, breathless examination is tho order of the day. Educators will cry a sound mind in a sound body, and immediately fermulate a graded course whose fulfillment would be sufficient to destroy both body aud mind. Results we want, aud the results are chalked out. Passing grado is the end; children tho means; and "cram" is the word of command. To compass this end tho teacher works as deliberately re gardless of the present or futuro welfare of tho children, and as coolly, as Xapoleon would calculate on tho sacrifice of ten thousand men to accomplish a strategic maneuver. Of wisdom and hard sense the abovo is full ; and it would seem that nothing more need bo said. But when wo so often hear tho remark that children have to study from one to four hours out of school to learn their daily tasks, we wonderingly ask, why so? They answer, if the lessons are not ready for recitation, tho pupil must forfeit his recess or remain after school to learn them, and sometimes both. This U cruel ty. Have teachers forgotten that they were once children ? It is gen erally supposed that teachers know 8omclhing of physiology, but one would judge by tho way they treat scholars that it was a mere supposi sion. A leading physiologoist fells us that wo should never deprive scholars of recess, because they nec essarily require tho timo for recrea tion, and no person with common sense can deny it. Teachers com plain that outsiders cannot intelli gently criticize. Have not most of thom been scholars ; some teachers ; most parents ; who are your patrons ? Must they, liko brutes, be kept silent lest they disturb some pet Normal theory? Xot so. Let teachers in stitute needed reforms in the man agement of their schools aud neither educational papers or outsiders will over say one word other than in commendation. But so long as children are, and uniil the necessary reform is made, will be crammed, crammed to a surfeit, crammed un til they dislike school and every thing connected with it, teachers must expect to be criticized, and sometimes sharply, too, in hopes that they may see their error and reform. The free schools are the pride of the country, and it should be our aim to keep them so. Let no false isms or pet notions so blind our teachers that they strive to make machine shops of their school rooms and make every boy and girl when they leave them for life's battle sim ply a machine Do not undertake too much, cither as to tho number of studies or the tasks assigned, but do well what you have to do, and yon will have the lasting good will of all. '.Trust a. Uoy. Under the above title in the Ap peal of December 1st is a narrative of an incident in Boston, of the Bish op of Louisiana entrusting a boy with a sum of money merely because he had an honest countenance. Two incidents occurred in my own ex perience, which aro good correla tions : Somewhat more than fifty years ago, I was appointed a midshipman in tho navy and ordered to New York. I was only fourteen years old, and, being of delicate make and small stature, did not look more than eleven. My previous life had been spout in tho country, and I knew nothing of city ways or busi ness proceedings. Pay-day was the thirtieth of the month, but I wanted some money on the twentieth, and, passing through Wall street, I weut into a broker's office and said, "You lend money here, do you not?" "Yes," the broker replied. "Well," continued I, "I want to borrow twenty dollars for ten days." I did not then understand the quizzical manner with which tho broker look ed at me for a few seconds, before replying, "You shall have it, and I won't charge you interest for it eith er. What s your name. -" lie gave mo the money and I signed a re ceipt ; and, I need not add, the twen ty dollars was promptly returned at the ten days. I am sorry that I havo forgotten the broker. I mentioned the incident many years afterwards lo a gentleman who said it was I he most exlraordianary story he ever heard of a Wall street broker. The other case happened in Wash ington, about fifteen years ago. I was standing in the porch of Wil lard's Hotel, when a little hoy, willi a very bright, honest face, accosted me with, "Please, sir, lend me twen.- ty-fivo cents to set me up in busi ness. I want to buy some newspa pers lo sell again on the street." I replied, " My boy, I haven't got twenty-five cents, but here is fifty cents, and when you want lo return it yon will find me here, for I am stopping at the hotel. I never ex pected lo see him or the money again, and considered it a donation ; hut, in the evening, as I wa? walking up and down in the entrance-hall, smoking a cigar, my coat wa pulled by a lilt lo newsboy, and I turned and beheld the youngster who had ap plied for a loan in the morning, with the same bright, honest face (hat attracted me then. "1 have brought you back your fifty cent, sir," said he, "and I am ever so much obliged to you. I have made more than a dollar clear profit." If. B. "Whiting, in Chicago Appeal. JOHN WIGGINS, SS!

The following suggestions, made by tho editor of the Fiahkill (N. Y.) Standard, are as pertinent to this lo cality as to any other: We often have people say to us: "I intended to send you a little item for the pa per last week," mentioning what it was about, "but I didn't do it," and then offer an excuse. Or another person will say: "You ought to have becu down to, or up to euch or such a placo, and see such a thing that happened there. It would havo made a jrood item." We are always gratified at the good intentions ox pressed by such persons, but grieved that they let tho matter slip to post us on tho matter in question, when they could have dono it with so lit tle trouble. We cannot bo every where, and while we may desire to be at a certain placo our duty may rcquiro us somewhere else. Even if wo could be at the place indicated by our friend, who is especially in terested in the item ho mentions, oftentimos it would not pay us to by industry and fidelity in the place aud calling where he is. And he who docs this will seldom have cause to complain. A small boy who reached up the chimney for another Christmas pre sent, said he found something that sooted him.
