District Court

The District Court, Judge Bennett,
presiding, convened yesterday. We
understand that the number of the le-
gal profession has accumulated to such
an extent in this precinct, that il has
become necessary to provide a large
number Of additional seats for their ac-
commodation. The number Of cases
on the docket is perfectly astonishing
their being something ike eighteen
hundred suits to he tried. We hardly
think his Honor will be able to wade
through with this load. 1t has been
several years since the docket Of this
district has been thoroughly cleared,
and it stands a very poor chance to be
very soon, should the petition for a
new Court, which is now before the
State Legislature, not meet with a ia
vorable reception. We shall endeav-
or to lay before our readers the pro
ccediDgs Of tins Court from day tc
day.

A Reasonable Excuse.

The bank has invented one of the
most reasonable excuses for bursting
we ever heard of. 1t seems that in
October last, some high toned public
spirited individuals pctitioncd them to
burst, which they then declined to do;
three months prayerful consideration
has, however, satisfied them that their
duty TO the public required that the
bank shonld break, and accordingly
they have lobbyed a bill through the
Legislature of Nebraska, authorizing
them to suspend specie payments.
What accommodating, gentlemanly
fellows those Nebraska legislators must
be. they pass the bill enabling the
bank to suspend without the knowl-
edge, privity or consent Of Cook X
Sargent. OF course, they did.
The simple fact of the business is
this for the last three months the
bank Of Florence has been hopelessly
bankrupt, though it has paid specie in
sums under fifty dollars, so that its
proprietors might have some excuse
for saying that they were still redeem
ing if, however, a call was made for
the redemption of any sum over fifty
dollars, the party presenting the bills
was told that Cook IL Sargent redeem
ed at their counter ia Davenport
which, Of course, was false. There
has been throughout the whole course
of Cook d Sargent in relation to Flor
ence, an u%nfairncss, a disengenuousness'
and double dealing, disgraceful to their
character as business men. We have no
doubt that in less than six months,
they will have agents securing the
country to buy up their discredited
Florence notes at 25 cents on the dol
lar. Those notes are at this time not
really worth a dime on the dollar, tho
they circulate by sutfcrence at the
nominal value of seventy five cents.
We raise our voice in warning to our
friends in the county-the crash is i'm
pending over us the next four months
will witness either a change in the
course of Cook Il Sargent, or a change
In the condition Of Davenport. The
worst is yet to come.

HE REsuLT.-There is no porK
coming to Davenport this winter.
Why? Because farmers are unwilling
to receive wild cat for hogs. Very lit
tie wheat has been coming in lately for
the same reason. We are sorry to see
this, but it is what we have expected.
and farmers cannot be blamed fer the
course they are taking. 1t is, on the.
contrary, a move in the right direction
Those who labor with their hands, are
entitled to something better in pay.
mcnt than worthless wild cat. So
long as they consent to take it, thew
will get nothing bette. ; but when it
il ascertained that wild cat will not
work, money will take its place. We
counsel every person in the country,
to handle the trash sparingly. Don't
wait for your neighbor to refuse it, but
do It yourself and our word Sce 1t, old
