Brodfeuhrer tells u sSint Fritz Hoefer, who formerly worked for Mr, B., aud who is known to ninny nt our Columbus readers, acridrn'al y shot a man the other day at Aurora, thiB State. Chas. Reiukc tliiuks it our pres ent weather continues for a few weeks, Nebraska will have the largest yield of corn kuown to her history. It is simply astonishing the way the corn is growing. Fred. Matthews is preparing the trotting horse "Mat Patrick" for the match race against Stewarts "Sleepy Jack," and Tommy must not let old "Cappy" catch him napping for ho might laud his horse a winner.

In a conversation with him he expressed the opinion that, owing to the prohibitory law in Iowa, the republicans would be defeated this year.

Congressman Valentine came in from the west Monday morning, and Judge Crounse down from Boone Co., meeting and greeting each other on the U. P. platform. Mr. Valentine spent the day among his friends here, and Mr. Crounse passed east to Omaha. Greisen Bros, have moved into their new rooms one door east of I. Gluck's, where their old customers will find them ready to sell them first class boots, shoes, gaiters. &c, at most reasonable rates.

Walker has completed arrangements with the Union Pacific Railway by which all articles and stock intended for exhibition at the coming State Fair will be transported free of charge. The same arrange ments have also been made with the B. & M. road. Morrissey Bros., formerly of this place, now of Plattsraoutb, are erect ing a number of elevators along the lines of the B. & M. in Nebraska. They have one under headway here, on the track west of Johnson's barn. Mike was here last week superintend ing its erection. Prof. H. L. McGinitie goes to Niobrara to take charge of their schools. He will leave for his new home in about two weeks, his labors there beginning about the first of September. The Prof, and his family leave many warm friends behind them here, among our citizens. S. O. Raymond, on being ques tioned as to why it was that all these cattle men were so fat and hearty, very quickly replied, (meanwhile pat ting himself on the chest), "a clear conscience, man, a clear conscience." Frank Gillette being present, approv ed the sentiment very heartily. Sunday last the Turnverein, of Omaha, with their friends, constitu ting a company of about six hundred persons, arrived in the city, proceeded to Ueintz's Grove, and there occupied the time in singing and dancing, etc., until six o'clock in the evening, when they boarded the train for home, seemingly having enjoyed themselves to their heart's content. G. W. Stevens, an oid educator, and a firm believer in that sort of in struction which fits the pupil for the actualities of life, has a few words to say to the teachers, and suggests that more attention yet be paid to the ele mentary processes. Our superintend ent, himself a plain, practical man, appreciates these truths, while not unmindful of the higher branches. The Plattsmouth Herald and En terprise united their fortunes, consol idating under the name of the Hei'ald, the oldest paper of the two and con ducted by our old friend McMurphy. We have not the honor of an acquain tance with the new editors, H. M. Bushnell and J. B. Strode, but they conduct an excellent local paper, and hare our best wishes for their success. Mr. and Mrs. W. P. Phillips, of Lincoln, passed a few hours visiting friends here last week. On bis return home he reports to the Lincoln Jour nal that the growing corn from that city to this could not possibly look finer. "He says the country is one big corn field, and such corn he never 6aw before, even in the Miami and Scioto valleys. During his tour through three counties he failed to find a sin gle piece of poor corn. The oat-crop of that country, he says, is simply im mense, and to verify this, he says be fonnd many fields where a man could step from one shock to another in go ing over a twenty acre field." A SUCCESSFUL, KII4MV. The Exhibition ly Ilalchellcr & Iori." Grand Aggregation on Went Hill, Yesterday, a Grand StueccM-Large Crowd in At tendance. . Columbus, Tuesday, Aug. 221. The Burlingtou (Iowa) Hawkeye of June 221. 1SS2, speaks in the following complimentary terms of Batcheller & Doris' Great Inter-Ocean Show. The streets of Burlington were thronged at an early hour yesterday morning to witness the grand entree and parade of the great Inter-Ocean Circus, notwithstanding thfbreaten ing aspect of the weather. During the early morning hours the sky was overcast with black and threatening clouds, which foreboded a dismal, rainy day, but toward eleven o'clock Old Sol made his appearance, which gladdened the hearts of our country cousins who had come in from every direction to witness the parade and circus, expecting to see something grand and wonderful. Nor were they dibappoiuted. The street parade was exceptionally good much better than has passed through the streets ot Bur lington lor many a day. The parade over the crowds surged through the streets to the tents, which were packed in an incredible short space ol time, which Burlington having been visited by two circuses within the past month was something wonder ful. The immense audience evinced their approbation of the different acts by loud aud uproarious applause, aud were loath to leave when the last act was finished. In the evening the tents were liter ally jammed with people who came to see, aud did see the finest circus on the road. Batcheller & Doris have, without question, tho finest circus that ever visited Burlington, and have more real attractions than any circus now on the road ; chief among which is Millie Christine, the two-headed girl, who can truthfully be called the eighth wonder of the world. The Hawkeye representative had a brief iuterview with the lady last evening, and found her to be a very charming conversationalist. This is her second visit to Burlington, she having been exhibited at Union Hall seme twelve years ago. She stated that this was her first appearance with a circus. She is a very graceful dancer, and ex ecutes the schottische, polka or waltz with equal ease. -Christine has a so prano voice, Millie a contralto, aud they sing duets together with exqui site taste and sweetness. Of the performers, mention may be made of the bareback riding of Wm. Showles, whose thrilling feats brought forth thunders of applause. In his several acts he stands unrivalled. Miss Ella Stokes, the imcomparable bareback equestrienne, is an artist in her line. Mr. Jonny Patterson, the genial clown, and by the way, one of the best clowns in the world, kept the audience in a good humor in his own peculiar way. If space would allow we would be pleased to give each and every performer his due, but as it will not, the Hawkeye can simply say that the Batcheller & Doris Great Inter Ocean Circus is first-class in every respect, aud recommend it as such to amusement loving people. 1 For the Journal. The Institute. Yes! Teachers, attend the Institute. Bring with you your first, second and third readers ; your mental and prac tical arithmetics; your common school book-keeping; your geogra phy ; primary and common school bpellers, and plenty of writing mate rial. These are what every boy and girl should thoroughly understand. During the entire institute keep on the collar and tug of mental labor, in acquiring aptness to teach the above, instead of spending so much time with the higher branches, and discussing .topics beyond the reach of our com mon schools, as is too frequently the case in teacher's institutes. G. W. Stevens. The police, Messrs. Brandt and Clother, made a raid upon the club room at Louis Stracke'sone night last week, and, by strategy, got into the inner-sanctuary, of that shrine of mammon, so to speak. The lights were immediately blowed out, on the cry of "cops," and Mr. Brandt was struck several times, but not seriously injured. When he began to shoot, however, it was thought best not to strike him over the head any more. If anybody wants any further infor mation they can search it out on the records of tho Police court, if they will. It is barely possible that there were one or two innocent lambs in the crowd whose white fleeces may yet be washed clean by non-publicity of this matter. A Card. My daughter being afflicted with a Bore eye from which cause I feared she would loose her sight, I placed her under the care of Dr. A. B. Wheeler and now, after three weeks treatment, her eye is almost well, and her eight restored. I do not hesitate in pronouncing Dr. Wheeler as an excellent and thorough physician and oculist, and advise all my friends who are afflicted to put themselves under his treatment. Patrick Murrav. Aug. 12th, 1SS2. 1 The other Suuday evening, after Mr. Gray had preached from, "Be ye not weary in well doing," Mr. Smith stepped up to him, and said : "Sir, I have been thinking about that belfry. Have it built just as you want it, and send the bill to me, and I will settle it. The pastor gladly and thankfully arranged the matter; the belfry is built and paid for, aud the bell rings out cheerfully, the hours of service, and invites all together with his peo ple to worship the Lord. The B. & M. R. R., known as the "Burlington Route," offers spec ial advantages to travelers. See advertisement in this paper. 43tf Republican County Convention.

COOLIDGE WHEELERS August 5th 1S57, at Glenwood, la., by Kev. J. W Daniel?. 31r. II. P. Coolidge and Mis Thcdu M. Whi-eler. On the evening of the 5th, the 25th an niversary ol this happy event was cele brated at their riidence in this city, in the presenre of a goodly number of reln thes and friends. The ceremony took place iu the parlor Rev. Johu Gray, officiating. The twenty-tivc-year old husband was made to promise that on wash days he would eat cold beans for dinner, without grumbling; he refused, however, to con tract to get up in the morning and build the tires, especially as he had boys old enough to do that. On asking the wife to promise to sew on the loose buttons of her consort, she replied that she would when 9he had time. Objections to the marriage, if any, being called for, Elder II. J. Hudson protested that there was no certificate authorizing this ceremony. The officiating clergyman promptly ruled him out of oader, and proceeded with the ceremony, afterwards making out the certificate of marriago In much the usual form, adding that grand mother and grandchild were present, and giving their consent. After the ceremony, refreshments for all were served, supplemented by tinely llavored cigars for those of the gentlemen who desired them. The remainder of the evening was spent in social intercourse, and all went home well pleased.
