Eg-Leisure without learning is
death, and idleness the grave OF n
living man. 1t was a bravo saying
of Scipio, and every scholar can say
it-that ho was never less alone than
when alone. We pity those who
spend themselves, and misspend
their time in doing nothing, or worse
than nothing; who are always idle
or i'll employed.

GRASSHOPPERS.

"Ifyour State did not have the reputation OF
being Grasshoppered' every year, would have
had to pay twenty dollars an acre instead of str,
and the grasshoppers have done me solid ben
eft"
We heard these exact words from the lips of q
farmer from Mclean County, Illinois, the other
day; man of experience and observation who
has just purchased half section of land in Fill
more County on the line of the Burlington &
Missouri River Railroad Company.
There is a great deal of truth bottled up in this
confession Men from Illinois and other States
who come to Nebraska and examine for them
selves go away convinced of the fact, that the
Grasshopper is by no means as destructive as the
Ghinch Bug they see that the stories they have
heard arc either wholly false or greatly exagger-
ated, and they realize that In the young State Of
Nebraska men can raise bigger crops, and make
more money than they can further east, notwith-
standing that We do have an occasional Grass.
hopper to worry us.
The Grasshopper troubles of the past two years
have done uS no damage of any consequence,
and everything goes to prove the truth o. what
Professor Riley says, which is, that Grasshoppen
will only trouble Nebraska once or twice In q
long series of years, and that year by year the
chances of our being troubled will grow less

and came in with their verdict on Sunday
morning at 8o'clock. Although but COM
paratively few people are usually stirring
abroad at this hour on Sabbath morning,
a large number assembled at the ringing
of the bell, and the court room was soon
fairly filled. After the Judge and the
counsel in the case arrived and the jurors
taken their seats, the prisoner was bro't

for this. Judging from the accumula-

the Bank Of France showing the greater
power. The increase OF the rates Of the
Bank OF England is its. iavorite method
Of preventing the outflow Of specie, and
