HORSES AND MULEs.-These valuable animals are
subject TO almost as many diseases and accidents as hu-
man beings, and thousands are lost every year, either
for the want o. their owners knowing how 10 treat them
or from using inferior articles. This Is peculiarly the
case in regard 70 such diseases as sprinshalt, spawn, poll

of the Territory is being rapidly added
to, particularly in the vicinity of the Elk
horn and Platte rivers, where the land is
exceedingly fertile and easily cultivated,
and from which an abundant harvest NAV
be anticipated this season.
Fontenelle, the seat of Justice of Dodge
county, on the Elkhorn, and Columbus,
situated favorably in the Platte Valley,
and the county seat of Platte county, are
already of considerable note and import
ance for central towns.
SPECULATION.
Still they come with a disposition to in
vest in western lands and town property,
as a safe investment for a good paying
speculation. The scarcity of money has
brought down the prices to a favorable
standard for the purchaser. Property is
not only compared with sales of former
years, but extremely moderate figures
when c~ontrasted with the prices of older
sections of country. AT present the
chances are favorable to persons of mo-
derate means to procure for themselves a
home.
la IMPROVEMENTS.
Every where throughout the city, the
sounds of progress are heard ard the
throng are hurrying to and fro in the va
rlous %avocations of business, showing signs
of advancement and enterprise with a de.
termination not to be frustrated by the
pressure of the times if possibly to be
avoided.
Many good buildings are in course OF
erection, which will do credit to the ener-
gy and taste of the proprietors, whilst
some of the lesser lights are ~endeavoring
to keep up their end, by accomplishing
all within their limited means and ability.
NEBRASKA REPUBLICAN,.
The material for a new printing estab-
lishment has arrived and is now being
raised into the second story of the Pioneer

Republican party and its speedy organi.

UntimelY Refusal Of Relief.

A baker in Paris, very charitable
man, who had always, upon principle, a
sous, or rool, to bestow upon the poor.
became, at length, so beset and imposed
on, that weary Of the visitation Of the
pauper host, he solemnly vowed he would
never more relieve one of them. How
often are men made, like Jephthah to
repent of rash vows? And not long after
taking this, miserable object presented
himself at the bakers door, imploring a
crust Of bread for PHYS sake-he was
starving. "Slarving, indeed /" cried the
baker; that's the old story but I'm
not now to be so taken in. March,
sirrah you'll get nothing here, l assure
you'll The emacia,ed, miserable object
crawled away; the baker had the curiosity
10 watch him, and saw, alas that his
tale had been but too true; for many
steps he had not proceeded from this
benefcent tradesman's now inhospitable
door, ere he fell to the ground dead!
So shocked was the good baker by this
circumstance, that he opened his house
to all beggars as before; and retracting
his first VOW made another equally solemn,
that none hereafter who applied to him
for relief, should ever depart from his
door without it.

The Right Spirit.
BY AUGUSTA MOORE.

A young man stood in the center of a
dim chamber, holding in his hands bis
frst-born child. He stood in silence, with
his eyes fixed on the tiny creature he
held. Tears came into his eyes as he
reflected on the utter helplessness of that
unknowing being, that "little pilgrim of
love, coming none knew WHITTIER" "How
strange, how wonderful" thought the
newly eonsecraled priest of the household,
"that the great God, should eutrust to the
care of sinful mortal like me the care
and training of one of his human spirits.
How awful is the responsibility that has
come upon me. l. feel that this is not my
child alone; but that he is also the chilt
of the Eternal God, and at my hands vii
his soul be required. Not for my pleas
ure or for the stay of my old age is this
dear infant given, so much as for my
instruction in the things of God. I feel
this hour that the universal Father has
laid bis hand on me in a most solemn
charge. He bids me to interpret to my
child The character of his heavenly Father
in such manner as shall give him a
worthy and attractive idea of God.

this moment, than live to treat my boy in

my unconscious child, and over thee
resolve, God helping me, that will, tc
the utmost of my power, represent to Thy

the mercy, the patience, and love Of God
that when thou art told that He is thy
Father thou may'st long to hasten to hi:
arms and look upon his face; that thy
heart may willingly and gladly yield Hin
its service and homage.
"Father and Son are the staple figures
of the gospels, and never, sweet son, may
thine earthly father be so lost to his duty
and his love to thee, as to libel. by hi

harmony with the evident design Of his

Of his mind aud feelings of his heart to
shut a man up from his fellows. He
wants society-he seeks friends, he can.
not dwell comfortably apart, he desires to
interchange thoughts and feelings; and
if prevented from doing SO, he seems to

all times find companionship in his own

FALSE FRIENDs.-In the ordor Of
youthful confidence, with habits uniformed
and principles swayed by the slightest
breath of influence, the heart it easily
taken captive. The citadel Of the affec
tions is surrendered 10 foe who utters
the password friendship. Craving the
interests Of social life-longing for some
kindred spirit with whom to associate
after the tolls of the day, many an unhap-
py youth is led astray. Attracted by the
social and apparently generous qualities
of some companion, they bestow upon
him their friendship and their confidence.
But ere they are aware of it, insidious
poison is infused into their moral nature,
and they discover themselves plundered
of their character, and with all their aspi-
rations blighted. "The companion Of
fools shall be destroyed" Instead ol
shrinking back at the first impure word,
they have drawn closer TO the centre o.
the contaminating circle, and have only
too late found out their danger.

meet with men who seem to think that
any indulgence in afectionate feeling is
weakness. They will return from a jour

dignity, and move among their children
with the cold and lofty splendor Of an
iceberg, surrounded by its broken frag'
ments. There is hardly more unnat-

families without heart. A father had
better exlinguish boys eyes than take
away his heart. Who that has expert

treasure of his heart' Cherish, then,
