From J. E. North wo learn that

day ; that the Co. are buying coal for

L. Cockburu writes from M in no

white weasel, skunk, badger, tniisk
rat aud mink, and the trapping is
just beginning. Wo are all
in first-rate health, and the weather
is beautiful no snow yet."
Life is too short to reach per
fection iu almost any profession or
art. Tho art of singing is a cac that
fully illustrates the fact. It iH claim
ed by the best ot singers that when
we are young we have the voice,
but. we don't know how to sing;
sometime attcrwards, we begin to
learn how to sing, but discover that
we have grown so old that our voice
is cracked and tied for sweet music.
Gus. G. Becher of the firm ot
Becher & Price, insurance agents,
started Monday afternoon to canvass
the southern portion of the state for
busiuess. Wo can say to our south
Platte friends that the firm which
Mr. Becher, the senior partuer, rep
resents, is a jood one, anil thorough
ly reliable. Mr. Becher is au old
resident of Nebraska, though a
youug man ; knows a great many of
tho people of the State; has the con
fidence o" those who know him, and
is "A, 1" in his business.
Messrs. Cornelius & Sullivan,
attorneys, have added to their bus
iness, a branch that will often be cal
led into requisition. They have a
complete set of abstract books, and
will shortly have a particular and
full compend of the legal status of
all the laud in Platte 0011111)', u ar
ranged that they cau, in a moment,
see just how matters stand. Any
transfers made, or liens placod upon
land will immediately be noted on
their books, so that at any hour au
accurate abstract cuu be given by
them.
The present "coal famine" is by
no means confined to our locality,
but extends over a good portion of
the west. Among the reasons alleg
ed are: the early setting in of cold
weather; the scarcity of miners; the
scarcity of cars railroad extension
the past season haviug been out of
proportion to the increase of rolling
stock ; the tilling of speciul contracts
for large quantities ofr coal for man
ufactories, &c, taking precedence of
the general trade. One mining
company writes to a dealer here
that the blame should not be laid
upon the railroads, because it is not
their fault that they carry all that
can possibly be mined at present
that the demand is greater than the
supply at the mines.
The Maennerchor singing society
ol this city, with a few friends, met
at their hall last Saturday, aud tor
a few hours of the eveniug devoted
themselves to music, dancing, aud a
general good time. Tho society has
purchased aud put into their hall a
new $725 Wheclock piano, which is
a beauty to Icok at aud when we
say that it meets with the approba
tion of tho several musical experts
of this society, we think we have
said enough to satisfy our readers
that it is about perfect as an instru
ment. Some rare music drawn from
it by Messrs. Pohl and Wcrmuth
accompanied by G. A. Schroeder on
his violin, formed a very enjoyable
feature of the amusement of the
evening. The instrument was pur
chased of F. Brodfeuhrer, who sells
all kinds of mueical instruments.
Communicated.
Helton JUlIct.
It has been remarked that a man
to be fully appreciated must die. To
a certain extent this is true. While
in life, we are all hurrying and bust
ling onward in the great voyage, a
thousand cares aud a thousand duties
are crowding us and crushing us,
and it is only uow and then when
one of our fellow-passengers bids us
an eternal good-bye, and forever
'eaves the ship, that wo stop and
reflect and appreciate how truly
good he was; then we feel and
realize the loss of his companionship
aud we are sad.
A short time ago our community
-uflered a loss in the death of Nelson
Millet, which event deserves more
than a passing notice. A strong
man has been stricken almost in the
fullness of his strength a good,
kind and true man has been taken
from us. and wo as a community
mourn his loss.
Nelson Millet was born in Ver
mont, September 22, 1822, in which
state he remained until his sixteenth
year, when his father and family re
moved to Painesvillw, Ohio, whero,
at the age of twenty-one years, he
began tho study of the law in the
office of Gen. James H. Paine and
his brother Mnj. Ira C Paine, who
were at that time among the leading
lawyers in that part of Ohio. At the
age of twenty-three he was admitted
to the Bar, and immediately entered
upon the activo practice of his pro
fession.
In 1840, he married Miss Augusta
C. Bump, a most estimable lady, aud
who now survives him. Mr. Millet
emigrated to Wisconsin iu 1849, and
located at Racine, whore he shortly
afterwards formed a law-partnership
with his former preceptor, Maj. Ira
C. Paine, under the firm name of
Paine & Millet. For twenty-two
years this firm was among the fore
most iu the state of Wisconsin. Tim
partnership continued until Mr.
Millet settled in Columbus iu ls72.
Iu the latfer year he lormed a part
nership with his son Byron, in the
law business, which continued until
his death.
As a lawyer, Mr. Millet ranked far
above the average, being deeply read
iu the various departments and
branches of the profession, and his
broad knowledge of the principles of
the law, coupled with his practical
experience, rendered him iu tho true
sense of the word, a successful law
yer. Possessing keen perceptive
powers, and being an accurate judge
of human nature, he was enabled to
see thiough the motives of men. He
was particularly noted for his un
swerving integrity and unceasing
fidelity to the interests submitted to
his charge. To him no labor was
too much, no self-sacrifice too great,
so long as such was subservient to
the interests of his client. Being of
a sclf-sacrificiug nature and congen
ial disposition, uot only were his
energies but his sympathies enlisted
in the cause, and he labored more
for the benefit aud pleasure that
success would bring to those for
whom he acted, thau for the gaiu or
satisfaction that victory would afford
himself. He wa endowed with re
markably fine discriminating facul
ties aud close reasoning powers,
which together with his fertile
resources, rendered him at once an
opponent to be feared and respected
by his brethren of the Bar. Like a
great general, his resources seemed
to multiply as the difficulties of the
situation increased, aud iu the trial
of weak 01 close cases, these legal
resources at times seemed almost
unlimited. As an advocate his argu
ments before court or jury were
distinguished more for their force,
reasoning and terse illustration than
for figure or flowery eloquence.
Quick fo resent a slight or slur, he
was quicker to forgivo, aud while in
the ardent glow of labor in the heat
of trial he may have been like others
irritated and have passed ihe hot
word or administered the scathing
repartee, yet, with him, all way
buried in the court room outside of
its portal all was forgiveness and
sunshine.
Mr. Millet was a man of fine per
sonal appearance, and possessed
more than ordinary gentleness ot
manner and kindness of heart a
good husband and father, a good
neighbor and citizeu a good man.

lllockmle in Wheat.
Baltimore, Nov. 2C The Balti
more .te Ohio Railroad company
posted the following notice at the
corn and flour exchange to-day :
"Notice is hereby given that on
and after the 6th day of December,
1S80, the rate of extra storage on
wheat at the elevators of the Balti
more & Ohio railroad Locust Point
will be3-lGofone cent per bushel
for five days or parts of the same,
and 23a cents per bushel for each ten
dnva thereafter, or parts of the
same."
Tin notice created quite a com
mon. m among the operators, and
wheat fell several cents per bushel.
The company says this notice has
been gifm, simply to avert .1 block
ade iu the elevators and iu several
thousand cars at this poiut, which
would prevent a steady and regular
flow of wheat from the west, and
cause a lock up on the line.

On the death of Mrs. Will Jtoutson.
Deep in the cold and silent grave
We laid the one we could not save.
Bright summer pant, she could not stay,
So left us on an Autumn day.
Reside her couch, with many a tear.
Were gathered those who loved her dear.
Husband, well loved, and children two,
Mother and kindred, not a few.
"Mamma aud Will." these words the last
That from her fond lips ever passed.
They wept whilst listening to the strain
Of that sweet voice, so full of pain.
Hut now she's gone to .1 brighter home,
Where earthly eares aie all unknown
And we who mourn our bitter loss,
Can onlj pray to hear the cross.
