The Fair Ground.

We took a drive to the Fair ground,
this week to note the improvements
going on. We FOUND every thing
prospecting finely. We noticed one
good building 25x1OO, feet on the
ground nearly completed, and others
in eourse of preparation. The ground
is being cleaned off, the track repaired,
and such other arrangementsin course
Of PREPARATION as. wiH accommodate a vast
number Of horses, cattle, hogs, pOult-
~, geese, ducks, goats, and the many
other articles the farmers the mechan-
ic, the trader and the manufacture, are
known to take pride in exhibiting.
Word comes from various portions of
the State, to prepare for this, that and
the other entries, which they are ex-
tremely anxious to bring before the
publicas possessing points of excellen-
cenotyet knownto ~thegeneral public!
and judging from what we have seen,
and read from those interested, this
will be the Fair of the season for Neb-
raska. Our farmers are preparing to
astonish all that come by showing
what Nebraska a do, when her soil
is judiciously managedand cultivated.
We say to the people of the country,
and the State, and other States, come
to the Nemaha'county Fair, to be.held
in Brownville, September I'D, 23d,
oath, and 18th.

VILE I'm Trouble
On Thursday of last week, we prin-
ted a TeIegraphic dispatch that Yer
mont had gone Republican by over
80. OOOmajority on the largest vote ever
polled in the State. No sooner had
the ne WIS seen the light, than the
Democratic Club of rownviIle drumed
M their followers and began raising
their Sycamore and Blair, pole down
near the Levee. In getting up a little
excitement over poll raising they
supposed the rank and file would be
too excited to receive the fun force OF
the voice from Vermont. AS the tip
pier resorts to his cups to soOth his
disappointments, 50 the Democracy of
Brownville seek excitement to quiet
the still small voice beating at the
conscience of every SAM loyal man,
demanding that he shall vote for
Grant and Colfax, and thus save the
country from financial and political
ruin. The Democracy Of this City are
as artfuI and crafty as their great
New York leader; and like him, are
doomed tOmanya disappointment.

by the President, Prof. ]. NJ. Mckenzie,
OF 2 o'clock. p. NJ. As few members
were present the programme for the
session was not called up. Remarks
were then entertained on the propriety
Of a%djourning until after the State
Election; when, on motion, it was
agreed to hold our next session on
Friday evening, the 10th, and on the
18th, day of October next. On mo-
ton, Prof. J. N. Mckenzie was chosen
to deliver a lecture before the Associ-
alton on the evening of the 10th. A
Committee of three consisting of Prof.
Mckenzie, Prof. Moore, and Miss NJ.
Morey, appointed to prepare a pro-
gramme and make all necessary
arrangements for the next session.
On motion, adjourned. Owing to the
political issues that are now foremost
in the minds of the people, it was
deemed proper to postpone the next
session until after the State election /;
when the political ambition of many
will he satisfied, and the public mind
has moderated to such an extent that
the great and universal cause of edu-
cation may receive that attention
which properly belongs to it. 1t is
expected that the committee of ar
rangements will prepare and report
at an early day, a programme that
will make thenext session one Ofgreat
interest, and which will be calculated
to greatly benefit the teachers and
promote the cause of education in
Nemaha County.

The Lie Direct.

Mr.. Poppleton, in a public speech
in this city, charged that Hon. John
Taffe voted for a proposition of Mr..
Wilson, of Iowa, which declared that
no more public lands should be voted
as subsidies to railroad companies.
Mr.. Taffe, in his speech in this city
on Saturday night last, asserted that
he not only did not vote for Mr.. Will
sons resolution, but voted to Tag 1t on
the table, which was equivalent to a
direct vote against it, as Mr. Pop
pleton and every other man with a
grain of sense knows. In proof of his
assertion Mr.. 7. referred to the Con-
g~ressional Globe.

The DemOcraf.

That there has been and may be
now some unkind feelings existing
on the part of some of our readers in
the county toward a few of the people
of BrOwnville, we will not deny. That
the existence of this feeling operates
periodically to the interests of our
thriving city, all admit. This should
not be 90. The interests of the city
and county are identical: and every
effort on the part ofall parties should
be made to effect a good understand
ing with each other on all enterprises
touching the interests of the county.
We are therefore panied at the dispo-
sition manifested on the part of the
Democrat, to widen the breach, to
arouse the slumbeIing jealousies, and
consequently drive the trade of the
country from Brownville. This boast
ing or even circulating the expressions
that "BrownvilIe controls the coun-
ty," that the county Unjust knuckIe
down to the action Of one locality, T"
with a view to disturb the growing
good feeling among the citizens of the
county towards Brownville is simply
e~xecrable, come from what source it
may; and we submit to the traders
and business men of city whether
they can afford to have their interests
and prospects trifed with in this man-
ner,

Colonel FuTnas.

We have hadthe pleasure at several
different times this season of visiting
the premises of Col. r. w. Furnas in
this city. TOthose thathave been there
and from the Coils known hospi-
tality wejudge that thousands have
no mention of ours of what is to be
seen there, would be at all flattering.
It is til epoint of interest in BrownviIle
in Nemaha county, if not in the State.
Let the Colonel conduct you over the
grounds, hear him talk of the infanite
variety of flowers, as he tells you of
the qualities of this and that, and
when, and under what favorable cir
cumstances each blooms, and sOOn he
will pass you by his choice Pear,
Cherry, Apple, Plumb, and Peach
trees, exhibiting the fruit ifin season,
giving names to each and loading
you down with the most delicious Of
fruits, and next to his ConcOrds, Cat
awbas, IsabeIlas, and the Lord knows
what other varieties, and then TO
where his strawberries have been,
his vegetables, his rose potatoes, his
fine hedge, his growing nursery trees
until one comes to the conclusion that
the ColOnel is almost a mOnOmaniac,
upon the subject of his garden, but
when you reflect that it is but the
outpouring of a large brain and soul of
one of our estmen, that he works Un-
ceasingly to encourage all public en-
terprises, all social and moral reforms,
you will conclude with US that there
are but few r. w. Furnases in the
State and were theremore, man would
be wiser, better and truer to the Crea-
tor of all things that wenow find him.
Nav the Colonel ever prosper.
