The little girl has been impro ving right along, and we are assured that these are the facts iu the case. We are not versed iu such matters, but are told that the eruption iu typhoid fever, scarlet fever, measles and small pox are not always readily distin guishable in the first stages. Joint nai. readers can rest assured of getting the facts, as near as we can ascertain them from reliable sources. The last Butler County Jiepubli c(i7i gives the following facts iu regard to the reported discovery oT coal in that couuty : "About two weeks ago Win. Turner, a man who has spent much of his life iu the western minep, i but at preeut a tanner, concluded to make a search for coal, bis prospective point being on what is known as the Wilson farm, and ou a small creek by the same name, about one and a half miles south aud three and a half miles West from Bellwood, this county. Hi search was rewarded by finding, as he claims, in a clay slide iu the bluffs, a vein of coal three feet in thickness. Mr. Turner kept his ecret to himself. He tested his treasure, and found that it made excellent fuel. After satisfy ing himself on this point he purchased the farm on which the discovery was made. A company, composed of hiin himself, P. B. Royce, Jerry Wagner and J. E. Kellogg, has been formed at Bellwood to thoroughly investigate the matter, and work will begin as soon as the weather will permit. We await developments." Grand Prairie Farmers' Alli- unce. At the meeting held Jan. 13th, the alliance was called to order by the president. For the ensuing six months Ihe fol lowing officers were elected: Peter Streltor, president, Geo. Strelter, vice president, David L. Bruen, secretary, Alfred Bodmer, treasurer. The pres ident appointed as finance committee, J- S. Freeman, J. Jenkiusou and Da vid Strelter, which appointment was approved by the alliance. The discussion of the evening was on Township organization. Miss Louisa Stretter contributed music from the organ, aud D. L. Bruen a song, while Henry Bushel .enter tained the alliance with a declama tion. The next meeting of Ihe alliance will be at Waserburger school-house, Monday, Feb. 12th, 8 p. m. Oatnft-! GeiHK!!

"A ca6e of small pox is reported in the northern part of the city . Iu fact, that the patient is now convaleecrn'. it ;-uch be the case, the coucealnieu of the disease by the niends and phy sicians is nothing less than criminal, and there should be meaus of pun irhment." The above appears in last week' Democrat, and inasmuch as that paper has taken this way to bring reproach upon mo and the afflicted family, I deem it well to say for the benefit of the Democrat and the public generally that there is a case of varioloid in the person of a little six-year-old girl, granddaughter of Mr. Joseph Crites. The child came out trom Milwaukee, Wis., about the 20th of December, and soon after arriving here was taken down with typhoid fever. She had been poorly for a long time before she came home, evideutly laboring under the premonitory symptoms of the fever. Her being in poor health made her moreBUSceptible to contagium,&nd on her way home she was probably exposed to and contracted the disease and about the time she was fairly con valescent from ihe fever, symptoms of varioloid were developed, and as soon as it was possible to detect anything of a contagious character, I named the disease and told the family lo tell peo ple who wished to come there not to do so as the disease wax varioloid. And this was done before the disease developed any of its main character istics. The disease is of a very mild type and would not have been called by its name at all but for the purpose of keeping people from spreading it. Every precaution has been takeu by myself and the family from the very first appearance of ihe disease, con trary to what the Democrat would suggest was the case. Of course there are many imbecile, gossiping people who are thinking of evil and looking for something bad in others, whose tongues nothing but death will silence. For such people, this article is not ill tended. S. A. BONESTEEL, M. D. SparkN from Granville. Willie Palmer, who is in Canada with his mother, is reported very ick. Mrs. Pauline Marek, of Antelope Co., formerly of this place, is very sick. Thiukiug that the readers of the Journal would like to hear of one of our new colleges, I will depart from my usual custom and give a short de scription of Gale's college, Neligh's. enterprising school. For some of the following facts I am indebted to Mr. G. A. Gregory, first assistant teacher. Gate's college opened last fall with about fifty-five pupils, and the nnmber of student for the wintei term has been increased to eighty. The facul ty consists of experienced teachers, viz: Rev. M. L. Holt, principal; Mr. (5. A. Gregory, afesislaut ; Miss Prime, second assistant : Pof. Joe, writing master, ('lasses anP organized in Latin, astronomy, hist.? grammar, geography, arithmetic, reading, writ ing ani mu.-ic. Rev. Holt has gone east soliciting aid to build a college boarding ball, and Rev. Marsh, of Denver, has taken his place as in structor of the ,4A" grammar class. The college building is located on a beautiful hill from the top of which a person can view the country for miles around. The school is fine progress, aud has a class that has started in for a six years' course. I think that -if the people only knew of the advanta ges that a college affords and the low tuition charged (only five dollars by this college), they would not hesitate long iu .ending their sous and daugh ters. If any one would like to have a catalogue of Gate's college, let hint send a card to Mr. G. A. Gregory, Neligh, Antelope Co., Neb. Jan. 25, '83. Young Rf.poktrr. Real Ivstate Transfers.

One of onr correspondents hrw late ly removed to Iowa, and gives u the following accnut : Comanche, Ia, Jau. 24 "83. Editor Journal: Here we are, delightfully situated on the bai,k f the ni-jeslic Mississippi river, havsug bought two acres of land on which are good buildings and is within the city limits of Comanche and only four miles from the city of Cliutou. The increasing illness of my husband caus ed as to postpone our visit to New York. Dr. Hitchcock, the most skill ful physician of this place, has visited him each day for the last two weeks and thinks be is improving. Snow is about one toot deep, good sleighing, but the weather is fearfully cold. There are many kinds of fish here in the river, and are to be had all times of year for three cents per pound. Coal is $3.50 per ton, and dry pine wood can be had at the saw-mills for thirty-five cents per load, as large as auy one can draw. Seasoned hard wood is from four to six dollars per cord. It is very pleasant to see the steamboats glide up and down the river in summer, and this is a health ful place, but we verily believe that as a stock raising country, aud for the good health of its inhabitants, 'hat Nebraska has no superior. N. D. W. A Thilt to Bloomingdale Stock Farm. Mr. Editor: On many of our Piattte county farms arrangements can be seen that it would be profita ble for other tanners to copy. On a recent visit to the hospitable proprietor of the above named farm, your writer noticed some tbiugs thai might be improved aud others that wonld undoubtedly be adopted by other farmers and stockmeu if they could see or read of it. The wind mill is made to pay itself by pumping water, not only, but by conducting it through a hose into several iig pens. It also grinds feed. Another noticeable feature are the fences. They are made iuto separate panels and are tied to the posts and to each other by wires. Thus they can be used in summer for pastures aud iu winter for yards, aud around hay and straw-stacks. Wc also noticed a large stack of nice millet hay ; but our principal at traction was the stock. In the line of sheep there was nothing extra ex cepting two premium Cotswold males bought at the state fair at Omaha, last fall and costing over $50. Were the ewes as good, somethiug extra might be expected, but of course these males will help to grade up the rest. We also saw some very good hogs there aud some extra good horses, but the cattle were the best we saw. It will perhaps be remembered that the pro prietor was the first to introduce thoroughbred Durham females into our couuty, and he has some auimals that must be acknowledged to be the finest commonly seen. There is one young male Kaiser Wilbelni, Mr. Henrich has named him. not quite a year old, which it seems to the writer heals the whole herd of Kentucky animals of that kind that were sold in the country last year. Mr. Henrich informs us that he would under no circumstances part with him or sell him if it was not for the fact that he is related to all the young stock in his herd. For that reason aud tor that reason only the animal is for sale, aud as soon as sold Mr. H. will select somethiug extra of the same breed iu the east. We saw also some good grades there. Atter seeing the stock we wondered not at Mrs. H enrich' capturing the first premium tor butter at the Columbus fair and that three males out of Mr. II'h herd obtained the first premiums lor males of their their age at the Nance county fair held at Genoa. It is easy to he seen why quite a number of farmers have supplied themselves with breeding slock from Bloomingdale slock farm Taking our visit as a whole il cer tainly was a pleasant one, and we think that a good deal toward Im proving Platte county's stock is due to ihe proprietors of Bloomingdale, and that still greater improvements are going to issue from that farm.
