Mn. F. JAMES, says the Wilmington
IN. c. Journal, has shown us a yam
sweet potato, which beats the Gordian
Knot all hollow. 1t is twisted and inter-
twisted like a snake in its coil, only more
so. 1t does not appear to be more than
four or five ounces, nor in its greatest
length or breadth as colled up, to exceed
four inches, and yet if stretched out, mus,
be over three feet; it takes about fifteen
turns round, gradually tapering to the
small end.

A CoRREsPoNDENT describes Lord

PoRrER's SPIRIT OF THE TINES, says:
Nothing that ever stood on iron ever

made on the Metairie Course, New Or

Perritt, who ran a mile in | min. ~ 10

The Hon. A. r. Gilmore, the present
Land Receiver of Nebraska, paid us a
visit last week. Mr.. Gilmore is one of
the first actual settlers of our Territory,
was one of the first to receive his APP
pointment from the General Government,
and we are free to say his appointment
to fill the importan; place he occupies in
the Territory, has me- with the warm and
universal appreciation of all Nebraskians.
He came among us more than two years
ago, strongly endorsed by those who had
known him long, and we are glad to know
is as well and strongly endorsed as a high.
toned, honorable gentleman by Nebras.
kians. He has rare business qualities
and that extensive knowledge Of this
western country that peculiarly fit him
for the many and complicated duties
which, by virtue of his office, he mus
necessarily perform.

Nice Arrangements.

Our mails are so well conducted, from
the beginning to the end, that we think it
our duty to record the facts, so that the
Post. Master General will know who are
and who are not his faithful servants.
On Monday last we received the first
mail in about ten days (thc mails from
the South having gone through while our
worthy p. M. was enjoying himself, we
could not say where), and even then we
have serious doubts of its being well sorted,
as the tremendous large mails gave extra
trouble; and the Holidays being here,
storekeepers were unusually busy, and
could not well spare the time necessary
for its thorough completion. Every week
we are recording some delay in the mails,
and il has become unbearable the neglect
that has crept into this department. We
understand that the mail contractors have
their contract for the delivery at our Post
Office of the mails tri-weekly, but they
do not by any means fulfill it; a small
snow-drift will turn the driver back, he
either stops in Bellevue or Omaha, and
we have to wait until it suits their ony
nience to bring it here. We do hope that
our Congressman will see into this mat
Ter, and have the imperfections removed
