The Lewistown True Democrat says that' Gen.

We are told he can pro nounce the words "yea" and "no' very distinctly, and he apparently recognizes persons with whom be was intimately ac quainted and extends his hand for a hand shake to every one, although he has bo other way to communicate ideas, if indeed he has any." A Tylersville correspondent of the Clinton Democrat says : It is not gener ally known that we have in our town an insane man. But such we have in the per son of Wm. Bicrly.

At time he is as gentle as a child, talking to him self and laughing as though in the gayest company. At other times he is angry and tears to pieces everything he can lay hands on. His bed is made of oak planks spiked together, and even this has been torn already. His food is given him on a waiter, so arranged that no one need go near him, lest in his fits of passion he might hurt them. lie is generally fed by Mrs. Bierly. who can do almost anything with bim, although she lias made narrow escapes fromTiis clutches in th past. His health is good ; has neverbeen sick much. He is now about sixty five years old. hav ing been caged forty years. He was just about graduating at school when his men tal faculties gave away, a victim to bard study. He is, however, kindly cared for by Mr. Samuel Bierly and wife.

Yon can buy a good suit of clothing for less than half what it cost two years ago. This reduction in an important item of expense is owing to the establishment of the Eagle Clothing Store, by J.

Mr. Newman offered his g-mds at almost cost and ihusecured a big run of business, so much to that be bad to greatly enlarge his store, and now of ters the cheapest clothing in the state. NEBRASKA. Correspondence of tbe Reporter. Oak Creek empties into Salt Creek troni the North-west. It is of Oak Creek Val- ley of which I write now. 1 Unversed it nearly IS) in lie#, and although I have been through different parts of the West frequently, I have seen no part of the country that offers better inducements than this. The surface soil is black, a veg etable mould froui 2 to 5 feet in depth, accumulation of de -eying animal and veg etable matter for thousands of years. As a recent writer has said. "Itis composed of washings from the Rocky Mountains, du ring the poeiod of the formation of the plain*, is sponge-like in texture and af fords, therefore, a natural and effective system of under-drainage." When the rain fall is in excess, it is held in the sub soil until needed for the support of vege tation, when it is drawn up by capillary attraction and hence the crops neither suf fer from drouth nor too much moisture. What I say of this valley will apply to a considerable portion of Lancaster county, and to many other localitua in the slate The surface is divided into bottom land and rolling prairie. The bottom land is of almost inexhaustable fertility, and en tirely free front stones and gravel. When plowed it becomes very mellow and far mers work it shortly afte.* a heavy rain. There is no bard pan nor other impervious substances, hence farmer# do not fear a failure of crops from unusual wet or pro traded drouth. At least it would bo an exception to the general rule. Deep mud as we often find in Illinois and lowa is never known here. The soil of the uplands is not quite so rich, but with verv little ia bor, produces abundant crops, and some even contend that this'land is belter for wheat than bottom land. In this valley, 12 miles from Lincoln, there are three families from Centre county. Pa., Messrs. D 11. Zcttlc, 11. A. Larrimer and G. W. Kerlin. The first and last named lived a few year in Illinois and moved to Nebras ka la*t October. Mr. Larrimer moved bero last March, Messrs Zettle and Kerlin planted TO acres in corn, and had about fifty acres in wheat, barley and oats. Their crop it simply enormous, beyond their expectations, and. if favored thus for two or three years more, would not exchange chances with many in the older settlements who are in good cir cumstances. They sowed wheat in Feb ruary and in lest than six months ate of the fruits of their labor. They say they have no desire to return to the East. Mr Larrimer, wife, and five clildrcn left a good home in Centre county and moved to Nebraska, never baring seen the coun try before. His object in leaving a borne, with all tho modern conveniences a man could wish, to battle with the disadvan tages of a new county was to get land for his children, lie thought, with Paul, "11 any provide not bis own, especially those of hit own bouse, he butb denied the faith and is worse than an infidel." I never saw a larger crop of wheat gathered from a* many acres, than the crop Mr. L. has. He said, "you know I raided heavy crops in Pa., but neviy such as this. Tell my friends, when you return to Pennsylvania, that I found some disadvantages here but have no desire to leave this country." What 1 say of one of the families I can say of all— their object is to provide homes for their children and this tbey were not able to do where they lived. Tbcir wives and chil dren join them in saying, "We like the country." If any reports to the contrary reach Con tre county, put them down as unreliable, I spent five days with them anJ can truly say I love that country. Tenants give the third bushel, the own er paying all taxes on the real estate. Thia is u rare opportunity for those who are not able to buy. Or better still, perhaps, some furnish itock and implement* and givo the tenant half of all the grain. When such induce ments are offered and there is so much fer tile, uncultivated land in the west, why is it that men do not go and occupy it ? A. A. KEHLIS.

Hock Island and Pacific railroad at the east branch at" Four Mile creek, seven miles tram this city, arc beginning to ar rire. All tlie train but tbe sleeping car went down into the stream. The engine is completely out of sight. Barnuui s she* car went down among the rest, and it is l£:d that all of ila eleven occupants but one wcro killed. A special dispatch to the State Register from the wteck says there are sixteen kill ed so far as known , twelve bodies are out on tbe banks, seven of them being P. T. liarnutn s man. Four dead bsuiei are still seen in the wreck but cannot be got out at present. The accident was occa sioned by the washing out of a bridge and occurred about 4 o'clock this morning. There are seventeen people injured. LET OPIUM EATERS READ! More Terrible even than the Sufior tugs of the Slaves of the Bowl. A sallow-faced youth with tangled black hair, bended bead, and slow, drag ging step, crept out ot the prison pen in the General Sessions court room yester day, and, supported by two officers, was led up to tbe bar. lie is not 30 years of age, but is prematurely old and decrepit, and. as he was almost borne up the aisles, every one looked upon him with interest and astonishment. H is called the mor pbire man. He ha* taken anse-thetics ha bitually for many years ; recently th stimulants cexsed to produce the desired results. Tben he resorted to hypodermic jnjeetions of morphine, and began a sys tematic course of stealing, entering dwel lings and taking away overcoats. Hal, can**, indeed anything valuable that wa avai'abie. His booty he pawned in the neatest pawn shop. Then he spent the proceeds in morphine. Ho iniected it by boring holes through his skin with the point of a pair of 'elisors, and then with a small instrument throwing in the drug In time he increased the dose, and made larger nd deeper incisions. 11 body is covered with half healed sores He became weaty and litle*s in hit bear ing. his body emacipated, his eye dull, and bis skin a deathly hue. Uoariwcred to the namo of Henry L- Sun ford as he was held up in front of the bar yesterday. He was accused of steal in S7O worth of surgical instruments from the office of Dr. Early of 83 Macdougal street on the ltth of July. He had been a patient of Dr. Early fur some time As tbe question, "'Aro you guilty or not? ' vn put to the prisoner, he strug gled painfully lora moment lo comprehend the words, and then said in feeble tones. "I don't want you to hang mo; I only want to be shot. Please sentence me to be shot; I want to Jie." Judge Sutherland gave the prisoner the lijhtet possible sentence, namely, one year in the penitentiary. It is not known where Sanford livv*. if he has any home, or what his occupation is. After the #srter.ee a gentleman accosted the prisoner. He dropped listlessly into a chair, his bead fell to hi* breast, and he mumbled unintelligibly, and he twisted his long bony fingers. "I don't want to live at all," the prison er moaned. "All 1 ask is to be sboL Ob, I'm in such misery, such pain. I'd give all I've got to be shot. " Want to get out of my misery. Do n't want to live at all, and when I get a little better I'll either sh>>ot myself or open a vein. I'm tired of this agony." "Where do you live?' the gentleman inquired. "Oh, I don't know," the prisoner re plied, "they've got me in some place down here ; I believe it'sthe Tombs. Some one down there told me that if tbey did n't hang me they'd send me to a place : I d<>n't know what it is, a prison, or some such thing ; or else they'd put me to a place over the river, and there I'd he in fearful agony for a few days, and then I'd die. He said that they would not even allow ino to commit suicide. At the other place, up the river, he'Vaid they would put mo in a place arid would cure me. I don't want to live. I'm covered all oyer with holes where I've taken morphine, and oh, my spiae aches so." THE PENALTY FOR ISSUING BUS INESS CAItDS ItEPItE KNTINU NATIONAL CURRENCY.

Some of the sample* rectfv-1 ed at the Secret Servive Division here sn ot a character to deceive, some samples representing fractional currency and five and ten dollar notes. While they bear upon their face the fact that they are not really genuine, yet they are so very close fn their imitation as to hive deceived many people, and there is evidence here of one of these cards, issued by a firm in Philadelphia, without ai.j evil intent whatever, having betupassed upon nnuui ber of persons.

M. DEATH OF BRIGUAM TOUNO. Salt Lake City, Utah. Aug 21).—Brig hxm Young died t'-is afternoon al 4 o'. clock. He was attacked by cholera mor bus last Thursday night, which was fol lowed by intlainntion of tho bowel*, which prevented trom the first all passage through theui, and by continued swelling toward tba throat finally stopped respira tion. He wa* conciou* as long as failing breath permitted him to speak, but only briefly answered questions during the last forty eight hours. THE DEATH OF THE PROPHET. Such was hi* weakness that nothing, not even the lea-t incident, rendered the death bed of Brigham Young noteworthy. Du ring eighteen hour* previous to bis death ho wa* unconcious except at interval* of perhaps a minute in length, and then ha answered question* which were nsktd without making any voluntary inquiry Ori Tuesday evening and during most of tho day the Lion Hou>e was approached by scores of visitors, but some of Brig ham Young's own. wive* were prevented from seeing him. Many of his younger children were not aware of his approach ing death and all except a few of the younger member* of hi* family were de nied admission to his bedside. If he gave any utterance or made any !a*t request it ha* been carefully concealed. He is taid to have died quietly after a long period of silence and quiet breathing One ghastly feature of Morinotiism is illustrated by the fact that some of Brigham'* wive* relegat ed to hovel* and unable yesterday to view the remain* of their departed suzerain were hanging around tho doors oftbe Lion House. Crape was placed on the doors o' the Lion llouie and the Bee Hive at four o'clock and al tho co-operative store anu all mercantile establishment* owned by Mormons in the city were rioted at once. There ha* been no enteral demonstration of regret. Indeed, there it a noticcablr lack of excitement. BRIGHAM T JUNG'S BODY AND SUCCESSION. Sail Lake City, August 31.—The body of Brighnm Young will liu in Hale uulil .Sunday morning when the funeral will take place. The government of the Mor mon Church ha* pasted into tho hand* ot twelve apo-tle*. ten of whom will be pre* ent at the funeral. Two of them. Joseph S Smith and Orson Pratt, are in England It is not likely there will be another l're-i* dent of the Church appointed for Mm* i time. IMMENSE ATTENDANCE AT BKIU UAM YOI N(i S VUNEKAL Salt Lake, Sept. 2. —An immense con course of people from all part* of the ter ritory as-cinbled here to-day to attend the funeral of Hrigham Young There were probably 12.1tt) or 15,0U) persons in the tabo.'racle. The religious service* cow rat need at 12 o'clock and continued until two. Remark* were made by Mer*. Woodruff, Hyde. Cannon and Taylor, eu logistic of the dcreated and tlsa great work he bed performed. The body wu enclosed in a plain red, wooden coffin and was borne to the grave by the employee* of the late president Tho cortago wa preceded by a band and followed by the family, the different or ders ol priesthood'and adherent*, all on foot. The order of Hrigham Young a* to the disposition of hi* remain*, written in 1873, was read, but nothing from him ha* been made known a* yet a* to the succos tior'to leadership of the church or dispoti tier, of hi* property. The coffin was of California redwc*od,j varnished, and without ornament. The lining whs white satin. The corpse rested on a woo! mattress. The arrangements were all In accordance with written in* structicns giver, by Brighana Young in 187?, which instructions were read at the funeral. Ho desired that the body be made clean and kept front ono to four days; that the coffin be of redwood, two inches longer than the body and three inches wider, with a canopy top, giving the appearance of his being able to turn over if he desired; that he rest on a cot* tan bed, be dressed in the temple robes; that the females of the family buy no black to wear at the lunaral, but they could wear such if ibey had it, and that the males west no crape ; that the services consist of singing and prayer, and if friends desired to speak a few words they bo at liberty to do so; that the body he carried on a bier to the southeast corner of the private burying ground on the bill east of the Lion House, and deposited in a cut stone vault, covered with slabs and earth, then roofed over, and there ho de sired to rest until the resurrection? He de sired no one to cry or exhibit signs of grief. If he lived until the saints went to Jackson county, Missouri, ho wished to go with tbern and be buried there; other wise, as above. These instructions were signed, and ordered to be read at the funeral. Briglinm Young's estate is valued at from Si'.,OUfOOO to $7,001,100, though it wjil take sonic time to settle it up and as certain precisely what it is worth. In his reply to Ann Elian's suit for divorce lie swore that his monthly income would not exceed SO,OOO ll had already distribu led a considerable amount of property among hit children, and. as ho was very punctilious in regard to his affairs, it is probable that his will has been drawn to preclude if possible any legal complica tions St. Nichola* for September is one of the handsomest numbers we have seen in a long time.
