The incorporators are Robert H. Henry, James E. North, Leander Gerrard, John P. Becker, Gerhard Scbutte, Jonas Welch aud John Stauffer. Tho road will run from Columbus through tho counties of Platte, Madison, Boone, Antelope, Wheeler, Garfield, Loup, Blaine, Cherry, Sheridan, Dawes and Sioux to the western boundry of the stato. Tho capital is placed at $1,000,000. with the right to increase it to $5,000,000. According to our understanding of it, this is no mere paper railroad company, bat one that will mean business from the word go. These men aro not in the habit of doing anything for buncombe and have already done somo good work, preliminary, in a way. The route will prove one of the best local lines in Nobraska. Tfeo Lycei This institution, which has had a very prosperous existence for the past six months, givo a closing en tertainment Friday evening at the Opora House, tho main object of which is to pay current expenses. They must receive about $50 now to make themselves even financially. Tho entertainment, some twenty numbers or moro, will be well worth tho twenty-five cents admissiou. Thcro has not been a single Friday evening during the winter (when the woather was at all passable) that the Lyceum has not been crowded and it will be a handsome compliment for the Columbus public to attend this benefit entertainment en masse. This is to certify that I havo this day received from the Western Horse & Cattlo Insurance Company by P. W. Hcnricb, special agent, the sum of three hundred dollars, in full pay ment of the loss of my team which died suddenly a short time ago, and was insured under policy No. 10,075 of said company. In view of this fair and liberal treatment, I take great pleasure in recommending this Com pany to the farmers of Platte county. Dated at Columbus this first day of March, 1SW. William Connelly. Gus.

On the 22d nit., when JameB Galley returned home for tho even ing, he saw the shadow of a man against tho window blind, but bub picioncd nothing out of the ordinary course of a neighbor coming in to pass an hoar, bat 0n opening the door he was completely taken aback, surprised is no name for it, he was overwhelmed with a rush of con glomerated feelings too various for mention. The short of it was that it was the fifteenth anniversary of his wedding, and the large table was fall of presents and laden with good things to eat. We venture to say that Mr. Galley will yet get even with the perpetrators of this affair. The Jay Simms Dramatic Com pany are holding the boards at the Opera House Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings of this week. They are a good troupe and deserving of patronage.

The Platte river bridge south of us is partly damaged by tho ico which went oat last week. Mr. Jenkins Evans, formerly of this neighborhood, left for Colorado with a car load of horses and other goods. Our valuable citizen, Mr. Naylor, has sold his smith shop and iron works to Mr. Cieloha, who will con tinue tho business. Mr. Naylor in tends to go east. Tho polish citizens received two more church bells one day last week. The tower will bo built as soon as tho weather permits and tho sound of the thrco bells will invite the people to come, come, como to the houso of God. "Resolved that single life is pre ferable to married life" was the in teresting question for debato at the Duncan school house last Friday evening; the honorable judges de cided for singlo lifo to bo preferablo with tho present hard times in view. S. 91eroc Item. Quarterly meotiug services were held at Okay Saturday and Sunday, 20th and 21st. Weather warm and spring like. No snow in sight. Farmers aro bo ginning to think about sowing grain. We learn that John Dack is ex pected home this week ; he will com bine business with pleasure and bring homo a car load of young horses, aud as he already has some fine horses, ho can scarcely uso a car load, so wo presumo he will oiler them for sale. Tho past cold weather somewhat retarded building operations, but work is now being resumed with in creased vigor. Mr. Sipple with characteristic energy has built a line barn, and is about completing a dwel ling house, which improves the ap pearance of the neighborhood, aud greatly enhancos tho value of his farm. From a letter just received from Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Pickering, we learn that they arc much pleased with Sheridan county. Tho winter Tias not been so severe thero as in the southeastern part of the state. They report the country as settling up very rapidly, said they could count 18 farm houses within two miles of their place. Protty good for a now coun try. Rev. Mr. Todd, former pastor of the Congregational church at this place, leaves this week for Cheyenne, county, whore ho has a homestead and timber claim. He speaks highly of that section of tho country. It has generally been supposed that irriga tion was necessary to the successful raising of grain in that locality, bnt that has been abandoned, as they have plenty of raiu thero now, owing, wo suppose, to the increase in the area of land under cultivation. One of the greatest drawbacks the farmers have to encounter is impas sable roads, since farms are being fenced and roads put on the section lines, iLany are compelled to haul heavy loads through ravines and up hills that were formerly considered impassable. It is right and justice to all to put the roads on tho section lines, for wo cannot expect a man to lose tho use of his farm to accommo date the public, but when they arc put on the section lines in all con science let us havo them worked ; thero is taxable property enough to furnish tho means, and men enough in the country to do the work, then what excuso for the present condition of the roads. T. D. X. looki-ST Gins l-omlM. Our postmaster wears rubber boots John Anderson is the loser of a fine colt. A little child of Mr. and Mrs. Nels Peterson is very sick. August Peterson broke his leg the other morning, while loading hogs at his place. The school in district forty closes Friday afternoon with a programme. All invited.

A successful spelling school was conducted in 6ixty-threo Wednesday evening, the program consisting of songs, declamations, etc., was carried out in a manner highly appreciated by the audience, which was orderly and mannerly. Miss Rosa Dufifey, who has presided over the school in District 63 for tho past three months will close the term this week. Miss Rosa, is an excellent teacher, and her manner of training tho youth in the way they should walk, has made tho school a success. Mr. J. J. Anderson, of late ono of Illinois successful farmers, but hence forth to bo found on the list of No braska tillers of the soil, arrived last woek with his family from sucker dom. He has purchased a fine farm in a fino locality, in a fine state, and will no doubt prospor finely. Harry Whitehead has placed a pick et fen co around his residence. After putting strong hinges and locks on tho gate aud placing a large mastiff in the yard, finds that his labor and in genuity havo been to no avail. For meat will bribe the dog and tho fence scaled by means of a laddor. Why ? A school ma'am boards at his houso. Mr. M. McAninch has horses said to have the glanders. One of his horses died about five weeks ago, aud the others arc affected with tho epi demic. Our sheriff was notified at tho time, but up to this writing has failed to put iu an appearance. That worthy should consider that valuable property is in danger of destruction (should the caso prove to bo glauders.) Mr. McAninch has taken such pre caution to prevent his neighbors from damage as is in bis power. Quite a concourso of teachers and others assembled at the residence of Mr. aud Mrs. Whitehead tho other eve as per invitation. No sooner had the various conversations begun in earnest than it was announced that supper was waiting. The compauy wero soon seated around the table loaded down with good things pre pared by Mr. Whitehead. After supper, tho capacious parlor was re sorted to, where Harry by bis irre pressible comments and presence, kept tho visitors in good humor until a lato hour. The attempt to sing all the pieces in the Gospel Hymns com bined was given up, whereupon the company adjourned, all haviug had a good time. As I am contributing my last items to your invaluable paper from those "diggins" I shall avail myself of the privilege of expressing my highest regards to the poople of tho Looking Glass and vicinity for the many cour tesies and tokens of friendliness shown me during my 6hort stay among them. If anywhere honesty, sobriety, and industry aro required they cau be found in great abuudanco among this people. Hungry, thirsty and ragged they took mo in, and now I leave them, not to avoid a wash board bill, but to writo my book en titled "Sixteen Weeks Before a Look ing Glass," which, no doubt, will serve over to animato my memory to tho all-absorbing thome, civility.
