At a luncheon served before the
Sitl(liiiftou sale ( Knjjlaud ) Lord
Filzhardiuge eaid that people con
sidered him a fool for paying 4,f)00
guinea, for the short-horn bull Duke
of Counaught but he waa happy to
state that up to last year, in Fales
and service, the animal, had earned
him more than 7,000 guineas.
Messrs. Hcghes & Simpeon, in
Texas, have recently added to their
already extensive herds of cattle the
entire herds of E. B. Millet & Bros.,
numbering 25,000 head of cattle and
1,000 horses.
At the New York state shearing
fair the ram, Governor Sprague, an
Atwood sheep bred by L. B. Lusk,
and two years old, sheared 32 lbs.,
12 ounces.
At the short-horn sale of Avery &
Murphy and others some choice an
imals were sold and bought by men
who know what they are about,
short - horn breeding being their
business. T. C. Anderson bought
Wild Eyes of Vinewood for ?2,900;
A. L. Hamilton bought Airdrie
Dutchess 5th for $3,000; Mitchel
Bros, of Detroit had Airdrie Dutch
ess llth knocked down to them for
$5,055. Airdrie Duchess 2d went to
Mr. A. L, Hamilton, who paid $7,
525 for Airdrie Duchess 10th. 122
animals were sold, and the amount
realized was $72,010 an average of
1590.25 per head.

j "EtiyoK Journal: The out-come
of wheat will be very unsatisfacto
ry, oats generally very good, corn
good where properly cultivated, but
the cultivated fields, it seems to me,
are the exception iu this part of Ne
braska. "Weeds, weeds, dear Jour
nal, have taken possession of the
farms of too many of our settlers,
and are on far too many acres the
only crop wherewith the farmer
will have to wrestle this fall. One
thing is certain, fewer acres must be
cultivated, or the fair acres of our
beautiful prairies will 60on produce
comparatively nothing. It is a
shame, a disgrace, a nuisance even,
to see God's beautiful earth covered
with weeds, the scythe used in the
corn fields, but then you know a
farmer is a farmer for a' that.
Jesse Rising has quit village life
and now resides in a nice new house
on his farm ono-half mile from

In the laBt issue of the Journal
you request any of your readers hav
ing something extra in vegetables
or grain to make it known through
the columns of the Journal. We
like that idea, and I should be very
glad to pay a good price for a good
variety of grain or vegetable that
will yield a better return "for the
labor,'' and of a better quality than
I possess. For seventeen years the
Early Rose potato has been a favor
ite with me; reasonably early, of
good quality, and generally fills as
many baskets to the acre as a reas
onable man naturally would re
quire. Bnt if any of yoir readerB
have not tried the "Beauty of He
bron" we urge them to try a few
next season. It is earlier than the
Rose, of better quality, better shape,
a better yielder, and more even in
size, in fact, all large potatoes and
no small ones. No preventing prov
idence, we hope to send to the state
fair one-half bushel, and that half
bushel just thirty potatoes, and fully
thirty pounds. Whv Not?
To the YoHBg .Msb.
It seems a marvel to us that so
many young men appear to. think
that it is more honorable to stand
behind the counter with lily-white
hands and hair parted in the middle
and measure calico and ribbon, or
weigh sugar aud hog-fat, than to
stand in the noble ranks of the far
mer or mechanic.
Do yon know that soiled hands
with a pure character are more to
be desired tbau dainty fingers and a
tarnished reputation ? Young man,
forever banish from your miud the
thought Hint honest toil is a dis
grace. No names shine forth with
lustre on the pages of American his
tory as do those whose minds were
cultivated under difficulties whose
will power waxed strong by over
coming difficulties.
Young Americans, more than the
citizens of any other nation have
boundless possibilities spread out
before them ; and there is no worthly
object that can uot be attained by
them, with a proper outlay of per-
severenco and eneryy.
Read the history of. our great
statesmen, patriots and inventors,
and you will find that nearly all
commenced their career at the plow
or work bench.
Make yourself useful ; and in the
avening of your existence as you go
up to the east window of your life
and gaze out toward the land of
your youth, uo cloud of vain regret
will dim the glory of life's departing
day, but with gladness, you can feel
mat tnc worm is uotter tor your
having lived in it. Nance County

The Heart' Secret.
It is well that no spectators are
permitted to catch a glimpse of our
heart's secrets ; that the door is never
opeued to let any one enter to view
our unseen ghosts. If we have our
songs in the night, our midnight
vigils, we care not the world should
witness our disappointments and
mishap. "Deep in each heart's un
dreamed, unsought recesses, lie
buried many a fond idol, many a
treasure. Our spectres stand before
us iu their dead form, aud we touch
their icy hands, press kisses on their
cold lips; they are constantly sauu
teriug out from their graves; we
sigh and weep because we cannot
clasp their living presence within
our arms, it is better the world
should not know our heart's secrets ;
its bitter scorn and its cold pity
would bestow little sympathy; it
would neither condole nor solace us
under merciless disappointment and
withered hopes. Wo mingle in the
whirling throng of human beings,
we cross the broad ocean, we travel
through foreign countries. Who
rends the heart's secrects ? To whom
are they revealed? They may be
guessed, conjectured, suspected, but
they are not voluntarily exposed.
We prefer to shut them up within
the recesses of our bosoms, far out
of sight.
The water power of Niagara Falls
was the subject of a paper read by
Mr. Delano, of the Niagara National
bank, the other day, before the na
tional conveution of bankers held at
the Falls. It must have been an in
teresting subject, illustraded as it
was by the sight and sound of the
power itself. The recent mag
nificent inventions for utilizing elec
tricity in stationary and locomotive
machinery, and in lighting houses
and streets, have lent a new interest
to such great reservois of power as
Niogara. Electricity will trans
mit power to most distant points
and bring Niagaria to work in the
shopj iu New York or Philadelphia,
or cable it across the Atlantic to run
a traiu from London to Liverpool.
The potentialities of the electric cur
rent, opened up by late discoveries
made by men who devote their lives
to the study of the subject, surpass
the dreams of the most visonavy
scientists of ten years ago. Never
was there such activity of mechan
ical and motor invention as there is
to-day. One year of the latter half
of the 19th century is longer, meas
ured by the fruits that a cycle of the
middle ages. In this way the mod
ern man lives far longer than Me

The Mitlnisht Sun.
In this latitude the sun goeBdown
at night and we retire to our couches
aud Bleep. In the morning the sun
returns and we arise to the pursuit
of our various daily avocations. But
in the Arctic region in the spring
the sun never sets. There is no
morning and no night. It is one
continuous day for mouths. At tirst
it seems very difficult to understand
this strange thing in nature. One
never knowB when to sleep. The
world seems to be entirely- wrong
and man grows nervous and rest
less. Sleep is driven from his very
eyelids, his appetite fails and all the
disagreeable results of protracted
vigils are apparent. But gradually
he becomes used to this state of
affairs, devises means to darken his
tent and once more enjoys his hour
of rest. In fact, he learns how to
take advantage of the new arrange
ments, and when traveliug pursueB
his journoy by night, or when the
sun is lowest, because thon he finds
the frost that hardens the snow a
great assistance in sledging.
They were two crafty and cau
tious old vags. They met in the
alley, looked each other over, and
one of them queried.
'Say, do you chew?'
He did, but he didu't want to
spare any. lie therefore replied :
Yes, I chew gum.'
Sorry,' continued the other aB he
hauled out a fine large plug and held
it up to the light. I don't use the
weed myself, and I was going to
give this to you. If I find any gum
in any of my travels through the
alleys, I'll bear you in miud. Tra-la.'

ItKlCltNOA v. 1KI.A.KV.
Carried to the Supreme Court and
the Verdict of the Lower
Court Sustained.
The supreme court has just ren
dered a decisiou affirming the judg
ment of the district court in the
trespass case of Charles Erickson
against John Delaney. Erickson
brought action against Delaney iu
the county court, claiming that De
laney had pastured down and de
stroyed eighty to one hundred acres
of meadow land belonging to him,
Erickson, and whirh he was saving
for hay, by herding and pasturing
his cattle aud sheep on the same
without Erickson's consent and re
gardless of notices not to do so.
Delany claimed that the land in
question being "wild, unbroken, un
inclosed land," it was common to
the public and he and others had
been in the habit of pasturing the
the laud since the first settlement in
the neighborhood and had a lawful
right to do so until such time as the
lana snoum oe oroken up or en
closed. Judgment in the county
court was given plaintiff for .$25 aud
costs. Delaney then appealed to the
district court, and on trial there
judgment was again in favor of
Erickson for $70 and costs. The case
was then taken by defendent to the
supreme court. In an opinion filed
iu the caso in September, 1880, the
supreme court held in effect that the
owner of stock in this state has a
right to let it run at large upon the
wild, uninclosed, unbroken prairie
land of the state, without being lia
ble in trespass to the owners of the
land on which the stock might stray,
and reversed the case. Subsequent
ly on motion of plaintiff, a rehearing
was granted by the supreme court,
and the case waa reargued in July
last by Attorney Monger for De
laney, and Loorais for Erickson.
The decision just rendered affirms
the judgment of the district court,
thus holding in effect that though a
man may lawfully let his cattle run
at large upon the wild, uninclosed
prairie lands of the state, yet he may
not forcibly herd and pasture them
upon the grass land of another with
out the owner's consent and after
notice to keep them off. The opin
ion in the case is not yet filed, but
this is understood to be the ground
of the present holding of the court,
as it is the ground on which coun
sels for Erickson have prosecuted
the cause, aud on which the rehear
ing was granted by the supreme
court and the cause reargued in
July. Fremont Herald.

Lady readers who have uot tested
the magic properties of borax, have
been losing a great help and com
fort. If once used, you will never
be without it on your toilet table.
It removes stain and dirt trom the
hands better than soap, and at the
same time softens and smooths the
skin . It is splendid for washing
the hair, and will, without injurey,
clean brushes and combs in a few
moments. For washiug purposes it
saves both soap and labor. It will
oxtract the dirt from articles of deli
cate texture without rubbing, it be
ing only necessary to put the articles
in to soak with a solution of borax
over night, and need only to be rins
ed in the morning. Two table
spoons of pulverised borax dissolved
in a quart of water, to which water
enough is added to cover a pair of
blauket8,will cleanse them beuutiful
ly. It also saves great labor in washing
paint. It is said to drive away ants
and roaches, if sprinkled on the
shelves of safes aud pantries. Ex.
