We next came to the river, and tt cars ran between that and high bluff that nearly hung over the road, tilliwe reached the city.

It is on low grounds at the foot of several high hills. we'll filled with trees and affords splendid views from the top of them, and they reminded us of New England scenery. There are twelve thousand inhabitants. We spent the night there. In the morning we took the cars for Omaha, five miles, crossed the river on the new bridge, which is one hundred and sixty-one rods long, and en- tered the city, standing high above it's sur roundings and overlooking vast territory. The river and neighboring city in view. Less than twenty years ago the site of this beautiful city was bowling wilderness. Seven years ago there were less than a dozen two story buildings in the place. There is now one of the finest school buildings in the whole county, which can be seen for miles in every direction. A grand hotel, new post ofnce and number of elegant residences erected in the past few years. Seven railroads enter the city, and I found it busy place. It has a rather rough appearance at first, and the people are from every nation, and there are beer shops and whiskey drinkers enough to blight the fairest spot in creation. We had d pleasant time and our ride was through as beautiful country as the sun ever shown up on. Omaha has from l4,0OO to 20, 900

Omaha nnd Council Bluffs.

FRIEND PEAsE.-Last week with little exertion made 8 raise of small party for an excursion to Council Bluffs and Omaha. Friday we made all ready and waited the coming of the train, which soon appeared in tue distance. It came into the depot snorting and putting like thing of life.
 We stepped aboard and was whirled away
 westward, and the first stop was at station called Tip Top. This is the highest point of land in the state. It is eight hundred and thirty three feet higher than the railroad track, where it crosses the Mississippi at Clinton. This county lies upon the great water shed and it's streams flow into both the great rivers Crawford county we en- tered next; stopped at Dunlap station, an older county than Carroll and more inn proved.

Long Pond in Ne Olden Time.

MR. EDITOR Tine town of Salisbury, with it's towering mountains and beautiful lakes, can hardly be equalled by any town in the state. In addition to this it can boast of a lspe paper, in the NEWS, which is not likely to let its merits pass unnoticed by the outside world. The frequent allu- sions to it's lakes reminds me of an incident or adventure of the olden time: Four of us youngsters agreed upon night for spearing pike in Long Pond" Pike, you are aware, are very unsocial in their hab- it's, and are generally found solitary and alone among the pond lilies and other aquatic plants, apparently in brown study, and afford a fine opportunity to the fisherman if he approaches him with due caution. We started from the outlet of the lake, and after exploring every nook of the shore found ourselves half way up the west side, and with very indifferent sue cess. The next thing in order was to try the ''Beaslu" on the opposite side, as the little estuary into which that stream falls sometimes afforded charm for luck. Less ening our light as much as was possible with safety, we turned our prov for the other shore. The night was dark as Eru- bus. Not star to be seen. The murkY clouds seemed to rest on the bosom of the lake itself, and we were completely shut out from the outer world with the excep- tion of our dim light, and the scene that opened to our view can never be forgotten. The darkness of the night contrasting with the light of the torch. The aocks Oi i frightened birds that were costly spending the night on the willows tn at overhung tht
 water. The darting and flashing of thu
 fish in the clear waters below formed DIG
 ture of surpassing beauty and loveliness
 Some years after, being in the vicinity o
 the lake, we had the curiosity to visit tn
 place which had once afforded us so much
 pleasure. The little estuary was there. Tn
 stream was still falling into it's bosom. Tn
 willows were fringing the bank as before but the birds were gone. The fish wer not to be seen and the torchlight was ex } tlnguished; the friends who were with u on the other occaslon were far away, an we left the place musing on the vanity c
 human life, the feeting nature of it's pleai ures and the brief tenure by which we hol l all of our enjoyments.

A NEW TELEGRAPH INsTRUMENT.-Mr. G. N. Phelps of the Western Union Tele- graph company has recently completed printing instrument, for the use of the Gold and Stock Telegraph company, which IS re ally remarkable for it's ingenuity and com pactness. This instrument works on one line wire, without local batteries, has two type wheels, one for letters and the other for numerals, with device for shifting the impression instantaneously from one to the other, and is capable of working continually at the rate of forty words per minute. The whole affair is, perhaps, eight inches ln di- ameter, and of about the same night. MT. Phelps may well take an honest pride in this creation of his mechanical genius, as it is, probably, the most elegant printing instrument ever yet produced. It is proba- ble that this machine will, in time, be ex
 clusivcly used by the Gold and Stock Tele- graph company for their work, as it's speed
 of transmission is nearly or quite five times
 as great as the one now in use by them.
