The First That Were Scon In the Sniul- \vicli Inland * . 111 1803 Captain Hiehanl Cluvulnud , of Salem , took to the Sandwich islands scv- oral horses , an event thus rouoreled in his life by his son , just published by the Har pers : Touching at Capo St. Lucas , where they purchased "another pretty mare with foal , " for winch they paid in poods which cost in Eurojio ono and a half dollars lars , they took their departure on the Mill of May , and arrived at Karakaroa bay , Sandwich islands , on the 21st of of Juno. They found it was the bouson of a periodical taboo , during which no canoes were alloweel to stir ; but the next day John I'ounp came on board and told them that the king was at Mowee. Young was very desirous of having ono of the horsesand , thinking that the wrob- ability ol their increase would be better secureit by leaving them in diflorent Elaces , they next day moved to Tooagah ay , near Young's residence , and landed the mare , of which ho took charge. This was the hrst horse ever seen in Owyhue , and naturally excited great astonishment among the natives. From hero they went to Mowooand wore- first boarded by Isaac Davis , who , with John Young , comprised at tlio time the European population of the islands. Soon after a large double canoe came oil' , from which a powerfully built , ath letic man. nearly naked , came on board , and was introduced byDnvis as Tamaah- maah , the great king His reception of them was not such aa they hail antici pated , nor could they ' account for his ap parent coolness aml'lack of interest ex cept on the supposition that it was mere ailectation. Ho took only a careless look at the horses , and returned to the shore without expressing any curiosity about them. His subjects , however were not restrained by any desire to appear uncon cerned. The ncM's of the arrival of the wonderful animals spread rapidly , the decks wore crowded with visitors , and next day , when they were landed , a great multitude had assembled , evidently with no definite conception of any use that could bo made of them. As might bo ex pected from people who had never scon a larger animal than u pier , they wore at first afraid to approacli them , and their anm/.oment reached its climax when ono of the sailors mounted the back of one of them and galloped up ami down , upon the beach. They were greatly alarmed at first for the safety of the rider , but when they saw how completely lie controlled the animal , and how submissively and quietly the latter exerted his powers in obedience to his will , they socmnd to have a dawning conception of the value of such a possession nnd rent the air with bhoiits of admiration. Hie king , hoM'ovor could not bo be trayed into any expression of wonder or surprise , and , although ho expressed his thanks when told they wore intended as a present to himself , he only remarked that he could hot pcicoivo that their abil ity to carry u man quickly from ono price to another Mould bo a sullieient compensation for the great amount of fooil they would necessarily require , Mr. J.

PUUM CUntGllTON. All the Mown From the Capital o ; Knot County. CUKWHTOV , Neb. , Sept. 23. [ Corrc spondonco of the BET. . ! The Kno > county fair closed on Friday and was r financial success. A largo attendance was hail Weelnesdny , Thursday anel Fri day. Several Irotling and runningraco were had during the fair for purses ranging from $ . " > 0 to $1500 each. W'1 ' 1m o had no frost as yet , and corn Is fully ripe and will be a fair urop , In many plaeos bettor , and other pl-iees peeler than la t year. Alost of the farnv ers are well salislit-el with the yield ol both corn and small grain. Mi. ChonoyV bilck bank is nearly completed , anel is an ornament to our town , it being the lirst briek ; building in the town. Quito a number of new houses are being lluilt , nnd our town continues to crow stcnelily. The t'nie > n Pacific railroad engineers nro .surveying u line of road from Albion in Roomi county to Niobrara , this county. The line runs about twe'lvo miles west of Creighton down tlio Verdegrls creek , but no one knows when it w'll ' bo built. Rumor says the Northwestern has inter cepted them , and are grading on the Union Pacific's surveyed line between Albion anel Neligh. Omaha needs a direct line into north ern Nebraska as most of our proelucu and steiok goes direct to Chicago , and our merchants buy most of their goods from Chicago , the Northwestern giving better rates than to Omaha. Wo need more railroads in this part of the state. Wo have no competition , and are compelled to pay the enormous rates of the Northwestern. It is hoped the next legislature will do something in re gard to railroad rates , if tlio roads don't buy the legislature. "The ailgluy Deillnr. " The mighty dollar has enjoyed a con siderably longer lease of life than is usu ally vouchsafed to creations of a like superficiality of construction. It is the offspring of one Wolto , of Boston , ami fostered by Mr. and Airs. Florence. It has hold its OM-II through twelve years of thoatiical uncertainty , time only serving to tighten its grip on the popular favor. Outside of its lack of plot the play is clover enough us a satire on well known types of American eccentricities e > f the vulgar sort. The two leading characters are drawn with boldness anel strength and fit the principals to perfection. Wo have all encountered such types and recognize - cognize their likeness with a hope that their counterfeit represen tatives may render a lession to the originals that will tend to diminish their number in society. Mr. Florence was intelligent anel tnorough , as lie is in everything. His characterization of the lion. Slote is a delightful piece of art in its finish and mabtory of minute elotail. From his baggy , Puritan looking best clothes anel undo Sam collar to the up lifting of his eyebrows or the good humored trickery of his glance , ho is every inch the inflated , spread-eagle pol itician \vlio makes a nuisance of himself by his proclivity for mounting the stump and proclaiming in windy grandilo quence tlie patriotic effervescence of his Ilbu/.iium " M-lule ho / , privately is willing to lend himself to any scheme that M-iU enrich him bj- fair or dishonest means at the expense of the government. Mrs. Florence is an actress of more method and polish than a casual observer is capable ot appreciating to the tallest extent. Her voice is identical with her self , mezzo in pitch , and full of pleasing inflections that convey to the utmost the bignilicanco of her lines. Her gestures are less demonstrative than expressive , am } her action while never dragging , is deliberate , anel as natural as tnough the result of a spontaneous impulse. As Mrs. General Gdlllory she was convuls ing with her amusing mannerisms nnd confusing smattering of art and French , and vaguu idea of geography. She gave an excellent portrait of the shodelj American woman of fashion , whoso European tour seems to have been too much for hershallow brain. The balance of the company were capa ble in their respective parts , the love passages of the bashful simpleton with the gushing "Libbie Dear" being made amusing by Earlo Stirling anel Laura Cluiron. Florence Noble Mi.stuincd her part M'ell and JIuttie Russell was equally acceptable. Mrs. Florence was attired with her usual taste and magnifi cence. in the first act she wears a pretty out-door costume of deep M'ino-coloreel surah , plentifully relieved with white. Her garden hat is lined with pink and trimmed with shaded tips. She carries a white satin parisol. A cos tume ) of great richness M'as a rough purple - plo velvet train , with stool passamen- lories. Another Imnelsomc dress was a garnet satin on train , the bodice glisten ing with white beads. A most graceful goM'ii M'as a pearl satin brocaelo , the front and sieles halving tlio effect of being powdered with diamond dust from cut beads. This evening "Tho Flirt , " a very amus ing play , will bo presented , anel Mrs. Florence will introduce a &ong relating to Omaha belles. Army Brlorb. The following mimeel enlisted men of the department of the Plalte rille team , having reported at headquarters in com pliance with an order of tlio department of the Missouri , will proceed to their respective stations , as follows : Sergeant Charles H.

The second performance of the Simon Comedy company took place last night at the People's theater. The play was "Casto. " Robortbon's famous and beauti ful comedy. It was btrongly cast and was admirably produced , anel gave tlio greatest satisfaction. The people are beginning to see considerable excellence in many of the members of this company. Mr. Simon has some line characters and ho wiil doubtless appear in several of them before the close of his engage ment. Travis Suoel for Damages.
