Perhaps the religious advantages are,
at Bellevue, superior to many places Of
the same size in the Territory, from the
fact of its having been an old Missionary
Station. Each different denomination
cannot, of course, be represented here,
but all have, with the most perfect har-
mony of feeling, met for worship at one
place, and Sabbath and Sabbath School

enjoyed by oil who priced them. The
ladies of the different societies, too, have
united themselves into one benevolent So

No sorrows ore my musings roll

While Eden's path lies at my feet,
My heart feels heaven at every beat!

All wreathed with dimples as it grows:
With not trace of earthly guile,
While all It's rosy radiance throws,
A blush like summer on my cheek
The more it plays, the less seeke.
And lsve's rich heaven goes floating by,
While pleasures wear deeper hue;

With tints of gold and paths Of blue;
The sunsets have a softer flame,
And poetry higher claim.

MISCEL US.
For the Bellevue Gazstte.

Our little paper-the Bellevue Gazette
finds its way TO many homes in the
East, where they are anxiously looking
for reliable information of Nebraska, as
deeply interested as ourselves in the value
and fertility of our soil, our future pros
poets, our local and social advantages, and
at the suggestion of friends, / have tho't
to write little that may prove interest
ing to those who have proposed seeking
home among us. .... ...-.
1t would be far from my intention TO
present so Hatering picture of Western
life, as 10 plant the demon Of discomfort
in one home, or win one family from a
lucrative employment and pleasant moral
and social associations, for the uncertain
ties and many little priya,ious inseparable
from life in new country, and which
all should meet and conquer with cheer
ful spirit before they decide TO come.
But there are many men with large fam
lilies of sons and daughters who are lis
tening with eager interest and curiosity to
every report they hear from our broad,
unculliva,ed lands, hoping they may be
able TO make some exchange, by which
they can secure for all homes here, and
thus prevent the too wide dispersion Of
the little household band yet wishing
they knew more of the social and religi-
Gus influences which would surround them
here. ..
There are many young married men
too-ihtslligent, en,erprising, and indus.
irious, yet with limited means--seeking a
fnrm where they may find a permanent
and pleasant home, yet fearing 10 ask
their wives to leave their homes and
many social endearments. fearing they
will never find any place that will seem
as dear as their own native hills. and nc
voices as pleasant as those with which
they have mingled from childhood, and
tho I'VE would not wish to make the diff
cul,ies Of reclai,ning the wild, uncultiva.
te soil less than they really are, we be-
lieve that there are advantages to be de.
rived from the exchange which amply
repay for all. You will not find here the
wild hills and picturesque valleys Of the
East, and in place Of the waving orchards
and cultivated gardens, the tasteful build
ings and shaded walks. we can br, point
to beautiful rolling prairies, occasionally

The almost universal custom of kissing in
Paris seems at first singular. to a stranger com

life rarely permit yon to take lady's hand
much less to salute her. In France, to kiss a
lady with whom you are not intimate, isvery
common; especially is this the case if sheYis a
married lady. Not only the members Of. the
family, butlall the guests, expect invariably to-
solnte theflndy.aof the house, on coming down
in the morning. But though the modest Ameri-
can may, perhap, escape the ceremony on. .ordi-
nary occasions, Tetion New Years S morning it
