John Fisher of Liucoln, a form er residont of Columbus, was in the city Mouday tnorniug. He was caught out in that hoavy rain. A very large crowd of people gathered at Madison to celebrate tho t Fourth. Judge J. G. Higgius of this city delivered the oration. It is expected that James G. Blaine will mako two speeches in Nobraska during tho campaign. He'll have a rousing welcome. A citizen of Crete lately ship pod a train load of fat cattlo for England forty care, 600 head. From X. Y. city they go on ship-board. The Lincoln Journal says that a through train is to run from Ne braska City to Columbus, and a Ftub train from Seward to Central City.

Mr. Hcnsley requests us to say that all who are indebted to the -Era should pay up promptly. Gus. Frazier of tho Era office met with an accideut to his thumb. It was simply a bad "impression.' The County Commissioners have located a bridge over Deer creek on H. Pieper'8 place, a 25 feet span. Dr. Schug has removed his of fice to the rooms lately occupied by the Volksblalt, in Gluck's building. James Cady, of Cadiz Ohio, was in this city last Thursday. Uo re presents old times in splendid 6tylo. Two Indiana gentlemen, whose names we have not heard, arc talk ing of establishing here a steam laundry. Jolm Wiggins has the biggest stock and the largest assortment of barbed fence wire ever brought to Columbus. Treasurer Early was up town Thursday for the first in a long time. His many friends were glad to meet him again. Frank, son of J. E. North, was struck in the neck Saturday night by a ball from a Itoman candle, and somewhat burned. H. Pieper Bays hia and his neigh bors' wheat in Sherman precinct is looking well ; he expects to have 15 to 20 bushels an acre. The display of fireworks Sat urday night from the Wonder, Fitz patrick's and Lubker & Kramer's, was a decided success. Gus. Lockner started for St. Paul, Minn., last Wednesday morning, ex pecting to spend a month or po fishing aud on business. Daniel Thompson, late of New York. haR located at the sheep rancho recently occupied by Messrs. Barker & Newman, ne has 1,000 head. An Illinois man in the Ameri can Agricurlurist says that chinch bugs cau be destroyed in great num bers by burning the stubbles and rubbish. Dr. L. G. Freiday returned from the east Saturday, and will probably find a location for the practice of hi profession, somewhere in central Nebraska. LaBt Thursday eveniug was the second time 'the U. P. railroad has run two passenger and express trains west in a short time in day light, loaded down with passeugers. O. S. Bridges, late of Lincoln, has located in the city with his fam ily. An advertisement in another column will notify our readers as to the business ho will engage in. Wiggins proposes to sell barbed wire at actual cost. He has had some adverse experience with prai rio fires, and is determined that this country shall bo fenced, if cheap wire will do it. We have noticed that tho travel to tho west has greatly increased on this road tho present season. Nearly evory train that passes this city bound for the west is usually crowd ed with passengers. A very heavy raiu Monday morning, which will keep the earth moist for quite a while. These frequent showers, interlarded with warm sunshine, will bring the corn forward with amazing strides. We don't know who the enum erator at Grand Island is, but wo want to tell him that there is a ru mor here which is not creditable to hiro.viz: that his enumeration shows G. I. with a population of 3,300. The streets yesterday were full of wagons. Saturdays and Mon days are the usual business days for Columbus, but circumstances and the weather united in postpon ing general business until Tuesday. Geo. Rleder, of Albion, was in the city last Thursday. The new U. P. Railroad finished laying their track to Albion last Tuosday. It will not be long until the company have regular trains running to that village. Guy C. Barnnm sold last week to Gillette, Tiffany & Routson 93 head of cattle, corn-fed since Nov. last. They were immediately ship ped to Chicago, and were, probably, the finest lot ever shipped out of Platte county. G. W. Brown of Boone county was in the city last week with his clip of wool for shipment, 3997 lb3. mu- j j r o-n i This was produced from 39 sheep, being 10.54 lbs. average to the fleece. There is uo doubt about the profita bleness of sheep raising in Nebraska. We highly appreciate the good opinion of W. H. Michael, Editor and publisher of the Sidney Plain dealer. He says : "One of the com pactest and completest weekly news papers published in Nebraska is tho Columbus Journal." Mr. Michael it a Echolar and a philosopher. While the Ship of State was crossing the track Saturday the mast caught against telegraph wires, and was pushed dowu on Fred. Matth ews, the driver, who had his bcalp peeled a little. Miss Sallic Marmoy took the first prize for dancing Saturday evening a gold locket. Arnold Oehlrich drew the silver cup. No. U3 and S7 at the Drawing Saturday night are entitled to gifts ; they will please step forward. The' St. Paul and Sioux City road have purchased tho right of way in Wayne county, aud fifty teams are at work grading at the Summit. This would look as" though they didn't mean to be 6cared out of the country by the surveyors of the U. P. Fon Sale. A dwelling-house and lot in a very desirablo part of the city. Will be sold at-a sacrifice, as the money is needed. The house is new and cost moro money thau is asked for both house and lot. For further particulars inquire at the Journal office. Wo neglected to mention last week that Mrs. Briggs from Platte Centre, Mrs. Olds, agent's wife at Lost Creek, were in Columbus in company with Misses Ella and Jen nie Dillon, sisters of Mrs. Olds; the three sisters are ueices of Sidney Dillon, Director U. P. Ry. -J. M. McGrew, a newspaper loan, writing to tho Omaha Bee, says fof tho Jouknal: "It is tho finest office I have seen in the state, aud I doubt if there is a neator or cleaner one in the west. M. K. Turner & Co. are editors aud publishers, aud their employes are all first-class ftmeu." V The Medical aud Surgical In stitute of Messrs. Mitchell and Mar ty n was removed Wednesday last from the Red Front store to the Pierce building on Nebraska Ave., which they will occupy, the lower story being used for office and con sultation rooms, and the uppor as hospital. The very heavy rain Saturday night carried oft' the bridges at Wise's, Loseke's and Wurdeman's. Mr. Wise says that the water at his place was, to his knowledge, never so high by five feet. It is supposed that many of the bridges in the western part of the county have also been swept away. M. O'Toole says ho has 52 acrcB of wheat which stauds four feet high. It is on last year's breaking, back set in the fall, -the plow being run two inches below the breaking. The wheat was Grass and Pfciff, sown in February, well harrowed and thor oughly covered. He has also twenty acres of flax which good judges say will yield 15 bushels to tho acre. Rev. Lewis Gregory, pastor of the Congregational church in Liu coln, and Rev. Sherman of this city will oxchange pulpits next Sabbath. Morning service at 11 o'clock, even ing service at S. Mr. Gregory will also talk to the Sabbath school which meets at 9 a. m. After morning Bervico there will bo an election of Sunday .school officers for tho ensu ing year. A public meeting of the Sons of Temperance will bo held at the Presbyterian Church Friday even ing, July 9. The exercises will consist of an address by Rev. E. L. Sherman, declamation by C. A. Brindley, selection by R. P. Augell, and volunteer speeches, interspers ed with music by the Arion Quar tette Club. A rare treat may be expected. A telegram was received at tho TJ. P. depot yesterday morning to arrest one J. S. Johnson, on east bound passenger train, and collect $27 of him. A description of tho man was given to Chief of Police McMahon, who searched tho cars on their arrival. After tho train had "pulled out" the desired man was found in the baggage car, and taken into custody. S. F. Lctton from Paris, Bour bon Co., Ky., stopped here Saturday and Sunday with 24 head of thor oughbred cattle. He left for North Platte Sunday ovening, where he intends to sell his stock to rauche men. Ho is a practical, fiue-stock raiser and thiuks of starting a branch in Nebraska. He will be here again in about 40 days with 60 head of high-grade, Durham, two-yeare-old heifers for sale, aud will stop in Columbus a short time. Josoph Kelly, an employe of the U. P. R. R. Co., had his right shoul der put out of joiut Saturday, and was brought to the Surgical and Medical Institute in this city, to have it reduced, which was done by Drs. Mitchell and Martyu, after consider able hard work, and assisted by two strong men. Of course chloroform was used, and Mr. Kelly knew noth ing of the work that was done until it was all over. He loft on Sunday for his home at Central City. The American Agriculturist is authority for harvesting wheat, oats, ! &c'y before the grain is fully ripe, as j . ..,;. it is less liable to shrink, and is thereforo heavier and of better qual ity. Tho straw is worth more for fodder. There is less waste from shelling, in cutting, binding, shock ing, hauling in, stacking and thresh ing. The work of harvesting can be done without that hurry and rush which attend the cutting of ripe grain. A short delay from unfavor able weather doea not entail serioui Ion. The lny. Independence day was celebrated on the 3d, opcuing at sunrise by a national salute and the ringing of bells, which were repeated at noon aud in tho evening. The air was filled with strains of excellent music from the Columbus Cornet Band, aud all through, the exercises were enlivened by music. At half past ton the procession formed under the supervision of Marshal G. W. Clother, assisted by J. Rasmussen and J. Harpom. The order of procession was the Band, in wagon ; the Ship of Slato, with thirty-eight youug girls, Miss Ma bel Hudson personating the Goddess of Liberty ; Engine co. No 1, in their new uniform ; the Hook & Ladder Co. ; the Hose carriage ; carriages and wagons of citizens. Alter traversing tho principal streets of the city, the procession halted at the Engine House square, where a bower had been erected, and where the crowd wero wel comed to tho city by Capt. John Hammond, who followed his speech by reading the Declaration of In dependence, which ho did in a clear, ringing voice. He was followed by C J. Green of Omaha, who delivered a brief, pointed and sensible oration, which we expect to publish next week. The games came off in the even ing, and tho dance at night was en joyed by a host of young folks. in So far as they have gone with the crossings on Olive and North streets the U. P. R. R. Co. havo done well, but on the next two streets they have not "filled tho bill." They ought to be so wide that two teams could pass readily and also without danger of being thrown into a deep hole. We understand that there aro pits at the sidos of theee crossings that have been there from the origi nal grading of the road-bed. Of course the city would be responsible in damages consequent upon defec tive streets, and why a railroad company should be permitted to maintain holes in our streets is not easily understood by either people or Council. The truo interests of our city and our railroads arc not diverse, but tho same, and in this spirit we call upon tho U. P. to fill up these bad places. -- There are several reasons why Nebraska farmers should put up every pound of hay they can this season, and allow no hay grass to go to waste. There is every indication now of a good market. Colorado, it is said, will almost be destitute, and there are portions of the east affected by drought, which will be compelled to purchase hay or get rid of a large share of their stock. We believe that a? the years pass, hay in Nebraska will bo more and more valuable, on account, particu larly, of the immense demand that will be made from the mountain, raining regions west of us. If any farmer is fearjul of making wages fdr himself aud team he can doubt less find some one to guarantee him a price. The work of the Library Asso ciation in Dist. No. 1 has been highly gratifying to its friends. The li brary has been increased from about eighty volumes, to near two hun dred, mostly standard works of value. Among them might bo no ticed "The Report to tho Interior Department, on tho Arid Regious of the U. S.," a work of very great scientific value; "Geology of Ne braska," by Prof. Aughey ; McCau ley's England, and many others of equal value. The library will be opened to all who desire its benefit, during the vacation. Several from the country have joined and thus have the benefit of the library and at the same time assist in further building it up. An amusing feature of the pro gramme Saturday was the Kali thumpians, but there was not near enough of it a negro man and his wife, iu a dilapidated cart, driving an old donkey ; a soldier ou an old mule; a woman riding a superannu ated mulo; an old-fashioned West Virginian on a horse, with a billet of wood for a bit, twine striugs for stirrup-straps and horse collars for stirrups wero Bomc of the charac ters represented. These masqued parades might be made a very at tractive feature of celebrations, especially if the represented some character or ovent of our national history. D. Anderson in a letter to us dated Chicago, Juno 30, Bays that tho crops in Iowa are like her republi canism "overwhelmingly spontane ous." The corn crop especially is promising, but in Illinois it is not so forward, owing to the extrome wet weather. The live stock market is and has been for weeks very much depressed, especially on cattlo. Receipts last Friday, over 9,009 head, is unprecedented, and 40,000 hogs per day were never offered here before at this time of year, still the enterprising, speculative packers mako out to take care of all that comes. H. P. Coolidge has shown us a specimen of Alfalfa grown in his house-yard. He thinks it would be an excellent thing for Nebraska far mers to grow, being hardy, and its roots going down to water. We hereby constitute our California cor respondent, CyruB Lee, a committco of one to report upon the merits of this grass in that Stato where, we understand, it is very favorably re garded. Nebraska should bo look ing out for a tame grass which can be successfully grown for hay on our elevated uplands, aud also lengthen our grazing season at both ends. I'ewiuan's Grove. Sinco our last communication Ol.c Tbrouson, liviug near here, lost two children ; aud now he is reported very sick at, or near Lcadville, and his wife has gone to him. Mrs. Masters, wife of Gcorgo Mas ters died on Sunday night, 27th ult. Measles have been prevalent thro' the early part of the season, but havo now about disappeared. At this time general health is good. Spriug grain is poor, owing in part to early drouth. It is estimated at half a crop. Corn is good. Hay will be light. No weather can now bring it out. There is great excitement about the country at the head of the Elk horn and Niobrara. Some of our people have taken claims out there and will mako stock raising their business. Emigration is coming iu livoly. Many goiug northwest. Some to Nanco county. Much stock is going past in the direction of Nanco county. . And we continue to receive additions to our population, and improvements continue to pro gress. We aro anxious to learn the intentions of the A. & N. R. R. Co. Are we to havo a railroad ? About a week ago Mr. Simou Christiauson lost his dwelling house by fire.togethor with all his clothing, bedding, furniture, provisions and grain. He was badly burned trying to 6ave something. Mr. Christian-, son was well fixed. He is now old and will feel the loss severely. He was insured for a small amount, but nothing like the loss. Thcro has been no adjustment mado yet. . - For the Journal. The Picnic On the 3d in Ilcurich's and Will iam's grove was quite a fine littlo affair. The Sunday school that had instituted it occupied the time in tho forenoon by singing aud instru mental music. Their superintend ent Row A. Henrich delivered an address ou the origin, history and present state of tho Sunday school work. After that two of tho teach ers distributed little bags containing goodies for tho little ones, and as there was great plenty, everybody got a little something to sweeten the mouth and the temper. -Huge bas kets were then opened, table-cloths spread upon tho green grass and if there were any that had not brought a basket, they were invited to bo many tables that it was hard to de cide which invitation to accept. After dinner, music, both vocal and instrumental, addresses by Mr. Joseph Stewart aud Mr. Major Christmas, for the young people swings and games, lemonade and ice-cream for all, friendly conversa tion, renewal of old acquaintances and general good and social feeling all helped together to make it an enjoyable occasion.

Nearly all the white employees were present at the ceremony, as were also the ministers and missionaries with their ladies, from the Episcopal and Congregational missions of Santee. The bridegroom being a member of the Society of Friends, they were mar ried without the aid of a tninUter by " Friends' ceremony," and the bride, being a member of the Congregational church, the liev. Mr, Kiggs of the Cou. gregational Mission, engaged in prayer at the close of the ceremouy.
