Small Means.

We think that the power of money
is, on the whole, overestimated. The
greatest things which were done for
the world have not been accom-
plished by rich men, or by subscrip-
ton lists, but by men generally of
small pecuniary means. The great
est thinkers, discOverers. inventors,
and artists have been men of mod
crate wealth, many of them little
raised above the condition of man.
ual laborers in point of worldly
circumstances. Aud it will always
be so. Riches are oftener an i'm
pediment than a stimulus of action
and in many cases they are quite as
much Il misfortune as a blessing.
The youth who inherits wealth is
apt to have life made too easy for
him, and so becomes sated with il
because he has nothing left to desire.
Having no special object TO struggle
for, he finds time too heavy on his
hands; remains mentally and moral
ly asleep; and his position in society
is often no higher than that of a
polypuS over which the tide floats.

Neb. "VOlcanO.o

Probably no reader OF Nebraska
papers is ignorant of the existence
of what is known as the Ionia VOL
canO. This smoking orifice has
been so fully examined and explain
ed as TO require only passing no
tice. 1t is spot near the Missouri
river, a short distance from the
obsncure village of Ionia, Dixon
county. There is no volcanic action
about it. 1t derives its name from
the fact that a smoke has been seen
TO arise from the broken furl of the
immediate vicinity. The name of
the sort of rock which composes the
stratum where this curious reaction
of chemical forces takes place, has
escaped the memory of the writer,
but peculiar formation, when its
particles come in contact with water
and air, reacts with the oxygen in
these substances, and burns, the
smoke arising as in ordinary COM
bustion. These particles of rock
have been reached by the bend in
the river, and as they fall into the
water or are washed by it the smoke
is seen to arise. The rain and snow
percolate through the upper layers
of soil 10 this rock also, and where
ever it becomes exposed in any way
to the air the same phenomenon is
noticed. These facts gave rise to
the name of Ionia Volcano.

way near the north side of the
space), while the comrade of Ewing
started for the stable with view to
disable the horses, if Ewing should
fail in surprising and capturing the
men at the table. Each was success
ful in reaching his position. .
AS Ewing entered the passage
way between the two houses, a
mulatto, the cook, was on the pass
age from the dining room to the
kitchen, and on seeing Ewing was
on the point of screaming and re-
turning to the dining-room, but a
stern, emphatic and silent gesture
induced her to proceed to the kitch-
en-, and as she disappeared, Ewing
approached the door of the dining
room and pushing it open, cried out
Surrender, or you're dead men
Hands up!" All but one obeyed ;
this one, lieutenant, made an ef-
fort to rise, upon which Ewing fired
IA shot, which struck and slightly
wounded the fellow, who by the
shock fell to the floor; the others
threw up their hands, when there
was pause, Ewing waiting for his
cOmrade TO appear, while the Rebels
were waiting for their captor to
indicate the next step or act in the
drama. Soon the comrade rushed
in from the stable, when the officers
were examined and disarmed, the
wounded man mounted, and the
whole took up the line of march to
the Union camp, where they arrived
safe.
The captured party expressed sur
prise at the boldness Of one man
attempting to capture six armed
men they stated that on the appear
ance of Ewing at the door, they
supposed there were score or more
in and around the house, and that if
they had known there was only one
man they would certainly have
made an effort to resist him.
