As before stated in the Journal, during her long lethargy she could hear what was being said in her presence, and wsb painfully aware of tho strenuous efforts made by the use of electricity, &c, but was powerless to do anything against them. She is now able to sit up. Tho recent severe weather has prevonted visits to see her, which fact, the Journal thinks, is an excellent thing for the young lady and the family. At the last election of the Occi dental Lodge No. 21, Knights of Pythias, the following officers were chosen: P. C, J. M. Macfarland ; C. C, II. Ragatz; V. C, Carl Kra mer; P., J. G. Recder; M. of F., II. Oehlrich ; M. of E., W. A. McAllis ter; K. of R. and S., G. G. Becher; M. of A., Theodore Wandel ; I. G., J. Elliott; O. G., II. Natensted. The officers were inBtailcd Tuesday ot last week, followed by a banquet at Yogel's. The order is in a flourishing condition and the Columbus lodge is not behind the procession. We find that we shall have to very greatly condense our conversa tion with Mr, Whitmoyer concerning California. The country generally has a barren look, except on the mar gin of streams, and where the land is irrigated and under cultivation. As here 80 to 160 acres may be regarded as a farm, so there 5 to 10 acres is a farm, and they irrigate to raise crops. Fruit is one of the principal products, and anything in that line .can be raised. Tbe Colonel says it is a mag nificent sight to see tbe brilliantly green orange leaves, and, nestled among them the luscious yellow orange. He brought home with him some very choice specimens of oranges and lemons, and told us more in five minutes about them than we had known before. It is wonderful, he says, bow quickly a tree will bear fruit there those who have not seen could hardly believe. Grain is sown and before maturity, is cut for bay. The climate is very even throughont the year, and one year with another. When we suggested our theory that tho west coast of the continent was in the volcano line, and that there fore the earth's crust was thinner there than elsewhere, and the earth's surface consequently warmer, he told us there might be something in that, because when water is drawn from the wells it is warm, becoming cold enough to be palatable after a day or two. The Burgess family at National City are contented and doing well. They publish the Becord and have recently .added a new outfit. Co1bu- LycevuBu Friday, Jan. 29, '86.

Up to a few days ago we hare had the most open winter known to this part of civiliza tion; on Christmas day roses were plncked from the gardens, frnlt trees were putting forth their buds, in fact we have had regular May weather. We have a delightful climate, but that is all you can say for this country. Every thing that is produced hardly pays to send to market, wheat ranges from 45 to 56 cts. per bushel and every thing else in proportion. I send yon my experience of this country. I have traveled this country all over Prospecting and digging for gold, I have tunnelled, hydraulicked and crad led And I have been frequently sold. Where one gets riches by mining rerceiving that hundreds grow poor, I made up my mind to try farming Tbe only pursuit that is sure. So, rolling ay grub in my blanket I left all my tools on tbe ground. And started one morning to shank it To a country they call Puget Sound. Arriving flat broke la mid winter I found it enveloped in fog. And covered all over with umber Thick as hair on the back of a dog. When I looked on my prospects so irloomy The tears trinkled over my face. As I thought that my trials had brought me To tho edge of the jumping off place. I took up a claim in the forest And set myself down to hard toil, For two years I chopped and niggered But I never got down to soil. I tried to get out of the country But poverty forced me to stay, Until I became an old settler Then nothing could drive me away. And now that I'm used to tbe climate I think if a man ever found, A spot to live easy and happy That cdeu is Puget Sound. No longer the slave of ambition I laugh at the world and its shams, When I think of my happy condition Surrounded by acres of clams. P. E. C. Blanaark freclct. Mr. Wooderich wants to boy a farm this winter. Ella Swartsley has been sick the last few days. A farm to rent in this vicinity tbe coming summer. Mr. Schooler, who has been work ing for George Hodel, left for Switz erland on the 13 th. In the late storm, one of Tilton Hill's cows broke her rope, got out of the barn and froze to death. The farmers should fit up their sheds and barns, for "no man can tell what tomorrow will bring forth." One of Louis Heiden's horses got loose in the stable the other night, end kicked another one very badly. There are a good many wolves get ting around in this vicinity. Budolph C. M ueler saw one as he was going to Columbus the other day, and Louis Heiden also saw one ; Joseph Hodel caught one in a trap, but it escaped before it was killed. Some of tbe people of this vicinity keep their children from school, when they are young, trusting that they will learn enough when they grow older, but they should take warning from the old adage : "Defer not till tomorrow, to be wise; Tomorrow's sun to thee, may sever rise." Cbas. D. Wilson. Mearee Iteasa. Several of our neighbors srot lost in the late blizzard, but fortunately came out all right. What is the matter with the weath er department; can it be the resnlt of a democratic administration ? Some changes are being made in our vicinity. Mr. Sami. B own has sold his farm and expects to locate in Boone county. John Dack has pur chased tbe Trnelore farm adjoining his own, which will make a valuable addition to his farm. Mr. Stockman of Iowa, has purchased land and has lumber on the ground for a dwelling house; we are informed he also in tends building a blacksmith shop near Okay postoffice,which is much needed. Mr. N. S. Hyatt, while digging in a snow drift for lumber, foand a lire hog which had been buried two weeks; it was all right but hungry. A great many pigi and chickens have succumbed to the late storms. Sev eral neighbors have lost hogs, calves, &c We also learn that the new hat spoken of a few weeks since, was car ried away in the blizzard, and tbe former weather went home barehead ed, a sadder, and wiser man. Moral : Never bet on election. T. D. X. itl e. Peter Waleen sold 30 hogs the 23d Inst. An infant daughter of J. M. Pearce is very sick. Mrs. McNabb, who has been sick, Is better now. Mr. Lauson sold 300 bushels of corn in two days, at Genoa. sob was born to Mr. and Mrs. Bert Devlne a short time ago. A six months old child of Oliver Guiles has tbe whooping-cough. Mrs. Joha Abrahamson has started to Columbus for a few days visit. A couple were married a few milee north of here, but we have not been able to learn names or date. Mr. H. F. Anderson has a brother lately come from Sweeden. A orotner or owen ttckluud accom panied him. W. T. Hanchett has been eon fined to the houBe from sickness for sev eral dayB. A physician has been called to see him. Hon. W. J. Irwin has recently put a fence around his homestead, which will make a fine pasture for his stock in the fall and winter season. M. u. uancuett has purchased a span of horses of Mr. MaGee of St. Edward, price $290. W. H. Gray has bought a horse of Wm. Wright. A singing scoool nas Dcen or-, ganized at Mt. Pleasant school house, by Mr. Warren Hill. Between 25 and 30 have enrolled their names as scholars. A nephew of Mr. Hoffman, 22 years of age, was frozen to death in Col orado in the storm of the first of the month. We have not been able to learn further particulars. Our aged and esteemed neighbor Mr. N. O. Berlin has been ill for some time with inflammatory rheumatism. Mrs. Berlin has, for some months, been a great sufferer from erysipelas in the head. A sociable was held at tbe resi dence of J. W. Dorman, for the ben efit of Rev. Mr. Jennings on Tuesday of this week. Another will be held at Mr. Henry Guiles' on the 26th for the same object. Messrs. Wilson and Devore of Iowa, old neighbors of J. D. McNabb, have visited him lately. The gen tlemen were so well pleased with Nebraska that one bought and the other rented a farm and have gone back after their families. A cow valned at $110, belonging to Messrs. Dorman & Thompson, was hooked to death by other cattle in the barn, during the recent blizzard. Messrs. Anderson, Waleen, Abra hamson and Gray lost quite a num ber of hogs in the same storm. Dann. pmtit. In this department the people talk, and not the editor. Each writer must hold himself ready to defend his principle and his statements of facts. "In the mul titude of counsel there' is wisdom." Ed. Journal. Two Syate Ed. Journal : I was interested in the debate at the Lyceum on the subject of woman suffrage, and would add a few words through your col umns. There are two extremes possible in politics, tbe Monarchy, where, accord ing to Webster, one man is judge of human duty towards the state, what is best for its safety, peace, prosperity defense, the augmentation of its strength, resources, protection of its citizens in their rights, and the pre servation and improvement of their morals. The other, a Democracy, with the individual as the unit, where the whole people equally judgo of human duty towards the state, what is best for its safety, peace, prosperity defense, tbe augmentation of its strength, resources, protection of its citizens in their rights, and the pre servation and improvement of their morals. The founders of our government used language that would lead us to suppose they intended to form such a democracy where there could be neither Jew nor Greek, bond or free, male or female, for all are one in tbe eye of tho law. The explanation of this apparent discrepancy between tbe language used and the actual facts in the cas may be due to their copying tbe old Hebraic commonwealth in this, as in other parts, where the family was the unit, tbe women, the children and tho slaves being included in the family ttnit, tbe bead of tbe family having control and being largely responsible for each "member of bis family. Whilst we In our laws, literature and thoughts have adopted and recognize the individual unit to be consistent must adopt the same in politics. To say we never will confer suffrage upon woman is to say that we have reached our limit of progression towards tbe perfect government that knows no class legislation, that ad mits of no rank or cast but maintains equality before tbe law and at the polls, with one law for the rich or poor, the high or low, the good or bad, the male or female. Between the two possible extremes in politics can be seen to-day so many governments that are limited in dif ferent degrees that there is but little room for conjecture as to possible situations facts and results being at hand. That these TJ. S. are politically in the lead with all the world fol lowing like the tail to a comet goes without saying. On every side we hear the tramp of the nations as they fall into liue, while their eyes are fixed upon us to see if there are other victories to win. The world to-day concedes that so far as we have come, the results are grand vic tories for human freedom. With nations as with men, there is no resting place if we will not climb we must fall back. What American will say, "Let us retreat that some more daring hand may snatch the laurel from our brow I" This is our chosen path, then let us pursue it, and in doing justice to our loved ones vindicate the memory of those who said "All men are created equal" and that "the just powers of government are derived from the consent of the governed.'
