It isverv commonly believed and often the thought finds expression that the Americans do not have amusement enough. Wheu this is so universally acknowledged to be the case, Americans should take special pains to correct the evil. The great body of us can at least pro vide that ourselves and our families shall have as much enjoyment as the occasion affords, out of the annual fair which lasts four days. Take a rest, and get acquainted with your neighbors, near and far. It will do you good. Thos. Deiand of Florence, an old pettier of Nebraska, was in town one day last week. We came upon him talkiug with Jno. Rickley, G. W. Stevens and J. E. North, the latter of whom wheu a boy, knew Mr. De land at Florence. The old gentle mau, who is very vigorous for his age, 82 years, showed us a hickory cano that he cut in 1S32, and has kept it ever since. He has very de cided opinions about matters aud things, and looks as though he might be good for twenty years yet, more or less. Ll Everybody is invited to come to rue Columbus City Park next Sun day, the shadiest and coolest place in Platte county. Time and money have not been spared to make this the nicest aud plca?antcst Park iu the Stato. You will find there a donble target stand, a fine swing, a large and commodious dancing hall with good music and all kinds of refreshments, served by Brandt Brothers, and their assistants. Music and fun will com mence at 10 a. m. Good order aud a quiet social time is guaranteed by the proprietors. Hacks and busses leave Henry's corner every ten minutes for the grounds. 9tf Allen Gerrard tells us that in the early days, one season when it was very dry, most of the settlers failed to have a crop, but one man, on no better land than the rest, kept on working his corn, continually, stirring the ground, and had a splen did crop. Pat. Murray has told us time and again, that the best corn he ever raised was in the driest season he ever saw, by the same method, continually stirring the surface of the ground. There is reason in all things, and the reason assigned herein is that the moisture came from bolow, our soil being very po rous. Whatever the reason, there can be no doubt of the fact, and when the corn gets too high for the double corn plow, put in a single one with short siugletrce. It will pay, if this dry spell continues much longer. Columbus citizens who wero at the celebration at Platte Center Mon day are in ecstacies over the good time enjoyed. They cannot find words strong enough to suit the oc casion. A large crowd assembled in the grove east of town and were ad dressed by the Hon. W. U. Suelling ofLincoln. This able address was highly appreciated. John S. Free man was called out aud made one of his characteristic speeches. He advocated the return of Van Wyck to the U. S. Scuate. This statement was greeted with prolonged cheers and one highly excited gentleman near ly kicked tho platform down. The crowd was evidently of a Van Wyck tendency. Alter dinner the follow ing program. Trotting race. Pony race running race open to all foot raee base ball match. When these sports were coucluded, supper was served and all weut In the dance. During the evening the Hou. John A. Kchoe, in a ueat and appropriate speech, presented Mr. Suelling with handsome gold-headed cane. Mr. S. responded iu a happy manner, aud after three cheers were given, the celebration was a thing of tho past. There is a movement ou foot to build up the block between Henry's corner and Ernst's corner on lltb street, with two story brick houses. The greatest drawback is the fact that Jno. McMahon is not ready to build. He owns two of the business lots, those occupied by Wermuth & Bcettcbcras a hardware store, and by P. J. Smith as a saloon. For the ground rent of one of these and the full rent of the other, we learn that ho gets $90 a month, all told, which be is ready to turn over to a purchas er. John's price for the two lots is $G,000, and with the building $7,000. We would like to see some enterpris ing capitalist get bold of this prop erty, and build up the block. Im provements in one quarter beget im provements in others, and thus a town is built up. For good build ings in good places there has always been in Columbus a brisk demand at good prices.

"Wind" will aot build booses (though it sometimes will tear them down quick enough) but a judicious word. may occasionally be of value in inducing those who have the means to venture something that something may be gained. The table department of- the Jouknal went fishing Wednesday last, after arming ourselves with a written permit from Al. Arnold, the famous Nimrod of these parts, to stroll along Stevens lake. The confession must be made that we were somewhat inveigled into the trial by the fact that Judge Post had caught a twenty pounder a tew days before in these waters. The senior Journal proprietor is seventy-seven ears old, and we nave no recollec tion of being out with him on a similar occasion since, as a toddling boy, back in the forties, we toted gray squirrels after his unerring rifle, in the woods of far Ohio. We, that is to sav. this, the younger half of the editorial "we," never relished fishing or hunting, probably because the expectation of game was never real ized by the possession, except at the bands of another. Possession is more than nine points here. To shorten a long story, the senior fished with a hook set for twenty pounders, and got nothing but min now nibbles nothing, that is hardly fair, because both of us came home with ravenous appetites and couldn't even buy some fish for supper from Brother Jones. Our only consola tion (rich is the native possibilities.) was that we were, anyhow, . better off than Hensely. P. M., at his last venture, when, without fish, weary, hungry, disheartened and utterly cast down, he met a dissolving skunk in the road, and had to rustle for breath. ltHlsht rPy tltlas.

It has been proposed that the Columbus Lyceum would be doing a good deed in season by announcing an entertainment at the Opera House tor the benefit of the Orphans Home.

The celebration Saturday was fully up to the mark in every feat ure, from the booming of the cannon the night before, until the close of the dance, nothing occurring to mar the enjoyment. The procession, without much time being given to preparation, either, was excellent. The intellect ual part of the exercises, presided over by Mayor Kramer, took place at Columbia Square in the presence of a large crowd aud were opened with prayer by Rev. St. Clair, after which Supt. Ted row read the Dec laration of Independence, with vig or, aud Senator Van Wyck delivered one of his speeches so acceptable to the people. There is no use tryiug to reproduce it here, because it would be impossible to do so. He fearlessly expresses his views, with his reasons, and the great body who hear him recognize, at once, the capacity, which has made him an influence in the United States Senate. His utterances are received with such enthusiasm that men are im pelled as Jacob Ernst did here to rise in their place and give him encouragement in the work be is do ing as their representative. As to the athletic part of the pro gram, Mr. Pardo wou the $500 race against Pemberton of Dakota; John Denecn got the silver cop; Julius Philips, Jno. Deneen and Pat.
