insulting language townfj Mr.. Willard, who
told him to de.ist, and that he wished no
difficulty with him but upon wooster's con

switch he had used when riding. Wooster
then drew 3 long keen kni'c. madc out of an
old fi'e. aud plunged il into Mr. Niilard's
breast just above the left nipple. irfiicting
an ugly and dangerous wound. M~. Willard
surposirg himself mortaliy wounded, deter.

Ratchet which was lying near him and the
battle for life commenced. Wooster defend

demons, and blood flowed like water, the
ha'chet as We rs knife, doing fearful exc
cution. and, taken ell in all. IL is as bloody.
determined and desperate hand TO hand fight

near a year past. The President has issued his prUcla-
nation for land sales. 70 take place on the sixth day of
September next, at which time more land WILDE offered
for sale in this District than any other in Nebraska by
near three hundred thousand acres. The city now has a
population Of over 1000 inhabitants; four heavy neTcan-
tile houses, together with numerous small trading estab-
lishments Of various kinds; a hne large brick hotel, forty
by seventy feet, three and a half stories high; a good
school house in which a large and huurishinC school is
kept up the entire year; two organized churches and a
fine large building now in progress Of erection for the
third. A steam Terry boat is now, and has been for nine
months past, crossing the Missouri river to and fro at
this point. We deem it unnecessary to enumeTata far
Their, as the city is already so we'll known. But will say,
however that we arc coDhdentn no point in Nebraska offers
