The PRINTER.- We have received
the July No. of this most excellent magazine,
devoted to the cart Preservative,' and the |
printing interest in general. Messrs Henry
Il Huntington, of New York, are the pub
fishers and TO them we accord the praise of
furnishing the best work Of the kind ever
published. Every member of the craft |
should subscribe. Only 81 90 per annum.
CALL FOR HELr.- There Is a large
call for working men daily in our city. Far
mers are trying to get their harvest help
together, and offer very reasonable wages
for the times. The greater portion are of
ferng 100 per day, and board. which is
as much as 81, 10 or $500 was last year, in
proportion to the yield of their grain crop.
We advise all who are out of employment
to go to work at that figure.
ANOTHER WILDCAT DEAD.-T. S.
Mackoy Il Co., of Galesburg, ILL.,, proprietors
of the Ncmeha Bank, Nebraska, made an as
on Monday 18th inst. Although
a large quantity of these shinplasters had
been redeemed, many of the business men of
that place, and in the vicinity over which
this pussy was allowed to roam, are great
losers. Thus another Of these cats
have caved ill., and we trust ere long to
chronicle the demise OF the last Of the tribe
INDIANS Apour.-During the rain
storm. yesterday afternoon, we noticed
detachment of Native Americans with their
pack horses, squaws, papooses and other
fixtures, standing in the middle of Second
street as though they didn't care copper
whether it rained or not. The Chief was
dressed in a very flashy red calico dress,
which set off his fine proportions very sat
himself.
Only S3,OO.-Thcre is no use in CO.
ing hungry SO long as good board. at first
class Hotel, can be obtained at only $500
per week. Mr.. Humphrey Of the Scott
House has reduced the price of board to
suit the times. The cLeapness of provisions,
and the stringency of the money market
has induced him to make this arrangement,
which will undoubtedly fill his house to
overflowing. Good fare and nice airy rooms
always provided.
BETTER PKosPEcT.- Although the
wheat crop in this vicinity is much injured
by the unusual weather of this season, we
are glad to learn that in some cases the crop
is very fair. and will yield nearly an aver
age quantity. Judge Cook. who has large
farm below town, aud raises q goodly
amount of wheat, showed specimen of his
crop, yesterday, which looked very plump
and nice. He thinks his crop Will average
about II or Is bushels to the acre, and per-
haps more This, we trust, will prove to
be the case throughout the country.
SpALDINa d. RoGERs' CIRcUs.-

Rogers Mammoth Circus, and make up your
minds that it is the last and only chance
You will have this year, and perhaps for
years to come, to witness bona tide, first
class performance of horses. men and other
animals, under q canvas This is not their
first visit to our city, and consequently they
