OVER THE RIVERA minister who had
lost his child asked another minister to come
and preach for him, He came and told how
he lived on ono side of a river and felt very
little interest in the people on the other side
until his daughter was married and went
over there to live and then every morning
he went to the window and looked over that
river and felt very much concerned about
that town and all the people there. Now"
said he, 81 think that as this child has
crossed another river, heaven will be dearer
to him than ever it has been BEFORE" Shall
we not just lot our hearts and affections be
set on the other side of the river? 1t is but
a step it is but a veil we shall soon be in
the other world.-Moo1n.

- The ice of the big gorges above
Sioux City and YanktOn reached this
place Thursday morning of last week,
and for forty-eight hours the river was
Utterly jammed with huge cakes Of ice
from two to three feet in thickness.
The water began to rise with the APP
pearance of the ice, and continued to
rise gradually until Monday morning,
when it remained stationary until
Monday night, and then began to only
perceptibly recede. The water rose
feet above low water mark, running
out Of the banks of the river at low
places, more or less flooding the bottom
lands. The lower portions of Scott
City, opposite Brownville, in Missouri,
were covered with water, but most OF
the houses, being on the higher ground
while surrounded with water.remained
dry, and while the inhabitants were
considerably scared and inconven
fenced, none that we know Of moved
away, and there was rejoicing wher
the rise ceased and the fall began. II
is hoped that this is the biggest river
we will see here for long time. Or
account of the width Of the river beC
the water did not spread over the bot
tom lands as it did in several instances
in previous years, but the water has
not been so high before in twenty-tiy
years.

The river has been making sad hav-
oe of fthebottom below the city. Where
the first State Fair Of Nebraska was
held is now the main channel of the
river. The old Zook homestead is de-
stroyed, RosseiTs place is gone and the
Hoadley field rapidly going Mr..
Abraham Penny after a residence of
twenty years or more on his river farm,
has seen it crumble away little by littlo,
year by year, until now he is compelled
to get out of house and home, the river
getting dangerously near. 1t seem s
that the relentless old muddy will
sweep the bottom entire.

the people while the big ice was run
ming. He was up above Peru with
some of his pals hunting and jumping
onto cake of icel was
carried out into the river and down
stream in hurry; and the sight of
him in such perilous situation Great
ed quite a sensation with the people
along the shore. At Pera they saw u
man on cake of ice but could do
nothing to rescue him. They however
put the telegraph in operation, and dis
patched to Brownville that "a man
has just passed thispoint on cake of
ice-look out for him." But Ike was
rescued before reaching this city by
his crew who kept not far behind

-- Those who propose to open
saloons in this city say they have no
doubt that if they can procure license
under the old law for six months or a
year they will bold good for the time
specifed-that they have procured
such legal advice a5 to warrant them
Of the validity of such a course. This
plubably is true of the counsel applied
to, but they should not be TOO sure, for
equally as eminent legal gentlemen
hold contrary opinion. Aad we are
credibly Informed that from casual
remarks made by Judge Pound Of the
district court and Judges Cobb and
Maxwell of the Supreme court, they
are evidently now inclined to hold
opinions that will he disastrous to
those undertaking to run saloons un-
der laws and ordinances which the
new law repeals. Now, as to our In
dividual BELIEF in this matter, 1T was
our first suppression that licenses taker

is law, would he good for the TIM
stipulated but will be very wei

Yosemite Valley,

Yosemite valley, of which the world
has heard so much. is situated on the
MERGED river, in the southern portion of
the county Of Mariposa. 140 miles,
little southeast, from San Francisco. but
nonrly $50 miles from that city by any
of the usually Travelled routes. It is on
the western slope of the Sierra Neyada.
midway between Its eastern and western
base, and in the centre of the State.
measuring north and south. 1t is
narrow gorge, about eight miles in
length, from half to mile in width.
and inclosed in frowning granite walls.
rising with almost unbroken and per-
pendicular faces to the dizzy height of
from three thousand 10 six thousand
feet above tho green aud quiet vale be-
meath. From the brows Of the preci-
pieces in several places spring streams Of
water, which in seasons Of rains and
melting SHOWS, form eataracts of beauty
and magniliccncc surprising anything
known in mountain scenery. The val
lcy-bottom is like floor, the MERGED
river taking up much room rs il wan
ders from side to side, apparently in no
haste 10 leave. There are board tracts
Of natural meadow. radiant in SPRING
time with wonderful carpeting of how-
ers. These meadows are separated by
belts OF trees, park-like groves of pines
and eedars, black oak and live oak al
most without underground. and through
which one may ride unimpeded 10 all
directions. The walls are of granite,
with an average height of about three
thousand feet; in some places nearly
vertical, and with very little debris ut
the base; in others, a pine-oovered slope
leads up TO gigantic towers, spires or
sharp-cut peaks. There are now no fewer
than five trails over which beast OF
burden may climb in or out of tho val
10y and man, footed. eool-headed
and strong, may find dozen places where
he could, without real danger, scale those
seemingly impossible barriers. The gen
eral color Of the rocks is monotonoas.
varying from bluish-gray to an ochve.
that, in full sunlight, IS almost creamy in
tint.--Applcton's journal.
