sNot long since Clint. Johns saw
a blsck-snake crawling into his milk
house wall. He grasped it by the
tail, hut finding himself unable to

knife and wbacked the snake in two

with nearly half Of bis body gone, and

Correspondence OF the News.
LetteT from Nebraska.

Letter IIOIti NSNi cAS
DAVID CRY, Neb., Nov 80, 1877.
DEAR NEws:-I have been stopping
all summer in Missouri, but pulled
up stakes on the I'd of October for
this State, and arrived in David City
on the 18th.
David City is the county seat OF
Butler county, and lies on the south
side of Platte River, SO miles west Of
Omaha. There is d frst-class rail
road entering it from the east. The
Omaha & Republican Valley R. R. is
owned and run by the q. P. road.
It was completed here last Septem-
Der, and is rapidly building up our
beautiful little city. All kinds of bus
mess are represented here, from -S
frst-class bank down to a saloon.
Of the latter, I am sorry to say, we
have three, for although our citizens
are generally sober and thrifty, yet,
like all other places, our town has its
"dead-beats, who taketo drinking sa-
looms naturally as a hog to its wallOw.
If the Murphy Temperance meetings
we're inaugurated here, I think there
would be a number to enroll them
selves in the ranks.
Nebraska has been bountifully
blessed the past season, with good
crops Of wheat, rye, oats, corn, pota-
toes, &C., and the quality has been
remarkably good. It is surprising
to see how bOuyant the farmers are
over their prosperity, since the G.
Hoppers failed to put in an appear
ance, this season.
We have already three grain ware
houses, which are doing a good bus
mess, Notwithstanding freights are
very high from here to Chicago. Our
business men are making every ef-
fort to get a reduction, and I think
they will succeed in a short time.
Your California correspondent,
writing to the News q few weeks ago,
was rather severe on Nebraska. If
he could have gone away from the
Platte Valley a few miles, either to the
north or south, I am confident his
opinion would have been different.
Your readers must remember, the
Union Pacific road, on which be
probably travelled in going to CalifOr-
MIA, follows the meandeIings of the
Platte River, the valley of which is
generally low and wet, and to trav-
eler on the cars looks uninviting, but
it is good grazing land nevertheless.
The weather since my arrival has
/ been delightful, with the exception of
slight touch of winter a few days
ago. To-day it is pleasant again, and
the farmers are busy in fall plOwing,
! gathering corn, &c.
The land in this part of Nebraska
is very rich and productive, much
better than the land farther east.
The soil here does not get so mud
dy after heavy rains, as in Ohio.
If any Of my readers in Ohio are
desirous Of emigrating to the West
let them come to Nebraska by all
means, before going to Missouri or
Kansas, and look for themselves, and
be convinced that all I have said is
true. Land here in Butler county
or any of the adjoining counties, can
be had cheap at present, but how
! long it will remain in market cannot
be toId,as there was a heavy immigra-
ton last fall, and will be this winter
and coming spring. Come one, come
all; there is still room to spare
Yours &c.

The Pitsburg rioters are getting
their Just deserts. Five more Of
them have been sentenced, the pun
ishment in their cases ranging from
$500 to $4,000 fine, and six months
to one year Imprisonment, except one
Matthew Marshall, who was senten-
ced to pay $4,000 fine and go to the
penitentiary for six years and ten
months. From this it seems that
the packed grand jury, who made an
infamous report, defending the
rioters, had not influence enough to
save their murderous and plunder-
ing proteges from punishment. This
is gratifying to all lovers Of law and
order.

Richmond, Va, furnishes an illus.
tration of what may be done in
Southern communities by a popula-
ton disposed to develop their re-
sources, instead of devoting their
time to the management of National,
State and local politics. In 1865
the city was in ruins. Since that
time it has doubled in population,
and numbers 361 factories of all
kinds. The sales of the products
of these factories in 1876 reached
the sum Of 500, ,424,8OO. Her wheat
and corn mills produced 50, 1857, 900 ;
her forty-one tobacco factories, S12,-
