Ho Bays that Pleasant Valley has abundance of hay, plenty of corn, and a very good quality of wheat. In speaking of timber, he praised the water Elm as a good growor in all seasons, wot or dry. The following expression occurs in Sir W. Temple's writings: "he thought that was the best climate where he could be abroad iu the air with pleasure, or at least without inconvenience, the most days of the year and the most hours of the day." How accurate a description of Ne braska! Last week D. Anderson shipped to Deuver a flue lot of hogs for the Colorado market.

Judge Hudson, of Columbus, promises tho Leader an articlo, or series of articles, on the early set tlement of this part of Nance county by the Mormons, and the trials and privations many of them were made to endure by the tyrannical sway of their leaders, and the treatment re ceived from Indians, agents, and others. It will doubtless be read with great interest. Genoa Leader. Those who attended the meeting addressed by Col. Buggins and E. A. Full ford, will remember tho gen tleman who put on tho Ku Klux uniform. The epithet applied to him in the last Era would bo moro appropriate to the man who used them without knowing what ho was talking about. Why is a man to bo blackguarded in a newspaper, sim ply because ho differs from the edi tor in his political opinions? Twelve hundred head of cattle at the State Fair shows that the great interest of Nebraska is re ceiving a larger share of attention than ever. All intelligent farmers are alive to their interests, and, so soon as they are able, will manage to get more and more stock sheep, cattle or hogs, or all of them, aud when once the great body of them get well under way, they will be on the road to independence and pros perity.

Turner is a man in the fullest and broadest meaning of the term, and j wen qu&uuea to uiscnarge ine amies in a manner that will reflect credit ably on the district. He will be elected. Genoa Leader. grf A man by the name of "D. A. Ballard, who registered here last Tuesday as Geo. E. Dean, was ar rested by John McMabon, Chief of Police, on a charge of swindling preferred at Soward by some of his dupes, doubtless. The fellow was selling washing - machines, shirt polish receipte, etc. The Sheriff of Seward county came up Wedaesday and got bis man. The rascals of every stripe ought to shun Colum bus, for we hare a detective force here that is very liable to "gobble them." Judge O. P. Mason of Lincoln was on hands Friday evening last according to appointment for a speech before the Garfield and Ar thur club, but, owing to the rains of the evening, and to the faet that the Judge was not in very good health, the meeting was postponed. Mr. Masoftbas promised to come on call, some time during the campaign, and when he does, every voter, whether republican or democrat, should turn out and bear him.

WALBORN In Columbus, Nebr., Sept. bib, of diptberetic croup, little Willie, only child of James and Kittic Walboi n, at the early age of two years and five mouths. A little form Is stilled iu death, A voico we loved is bushed; He'll ne'er again say " take me," O! our hearts are almost crushed. Empty stands the little cradle, Empty, too, the half-worn shoes, And the little feet that pressed them Safe, have trod life's journey through. His little robes are "all e'ean now," Spotless and white as snow, And he's gono to meet a loved one, Who on earth did love bim so. But why, oh why, should we mourn for him! " Let them come," the Saviour said; In His arms our baby's resting, Yes, his little spirit's tied. Then, good-by, our darling Willio, Till we meet to part no more, And our spirits, too, are wafted Over to the other shore. a. m. MARRIED. IIENDRIX WHEELER-Sept. 21st, by Judge J. G. Higgins, Wm. U.
