Almost A Fire. Last week tho
house of Patrick Dailey, who lives near
tho depot, came near being burned un
der the following circumstances: It
seems that all the folks had left the
house, excepting a couple of little
children, who tried to amuse them
selves by setting firo to a piece of paper
and holding it to tho wiudow curtain;
from the curtain tho firo cummunicated
to the bed, burning up the bed clothes,
and from thence it made its way to
lot of clothing, hanging on tho wall,
and was getting under a pretty fair
headway, when Mrs. Dailey came home
and put the fire out.
To Stop Bleeding. It is said that
bleeding from a wound, on man or
beast, may bo stopped by a mixture of
wheat flour and common salt, in equal
parts, bound on with a cloth. If the
bleeding be profuse, use a large quanti
ty, say from one to three pints. It
may bo left on for hours, even days, if
necessary. Tho person who gave us
this receipt says that, in this manner,
he saved a horse which was bleeding
from a wounded artery. The bleeding
ceased in five minutes after tho appli
cation.
Eats. This is a humane gentle
man's way of getting rid of rats: Put
potash in their holes and runs. The
poor wretohes get it on their feet, and
over their fur, then they lick it, and
don't like the taste of it; it burns them
somewhat, and the more they see of it
the less they like it; so they clear out
almost as soon as the application is
made. To get rid of mice, the same
person used tartar-emetic, mingled with
any favorito food; they take it, take
sick, and take their leave.

A Wisconsin secular paper contains
the following gjod story:
"One who does not believe in immer
sion for baptism was holding a pro
tracted mcetiug, and ono night preached
on the suhj-jct of baptism. In the
course of his remarks ho said some be
lieve it necessary to go down into the
water, and come up out of it to be bap
tized. But this he claimed to ba a
fallacy, fur the preposition "into" of
the Scriptures should bo rendered dif
ferently, as it docs not meau into at all
times. '-Moses," he said, "we aro told
went up into tho mountain, aud tho
Saviour was taken into a high moun
tain, etc. Now we do not suppose that
either went into tho mountain, but
upon it. So with going down into the
waters, it meaos simply going down
close by or near to tho water, and be-
lii baptizjJ iu tho ordinary way, by
spiiiikling."
He carried this idea out fully, and
in duo season and stjlo closed his dis
course, when an invitation was given to
any oi.e who felt so disposed to rise and
express their thoughts. Quito a num
ber of tho brethren arose, aud said
that they were glad they had been
present on this occasion, that they were
well pleased with the sound sermon they
had just heard, and felt their souls
greatly blestd. Finally a corpulent
gentleman of Teutonic extraction, a
stranger to all, arose and broke tho si
lence, that was painful, as follows:
"Mister Breather, I ish so glad I
vash here to-uight, fur I has had ex
plained to my mint some things that I
never bslicve pcfore. Oh! 1 ish so
glad dat into, does not mean into at ell,
but shust close py or near to, lor now I
can pelieve manish tings what I could
not peiievo petore. We, reat, Mr,
Breaaher, that Tanicl vas cast into tha
ten of lyons, and caiuo out alifc! Now
I ueber could pelieve that, for the wilt
beasts would shust eat him right off;
but now it is ferry clearly to my mint.
He vas shust close by or near to, and
did not get iuto de ten at all. O, I ish
so glad 1 vas here to-night.
Again wo reat dat de Hebrew chil
dren vas cast iuto da firish furnace, and
dat air ulwi.-h look't liko a peeg story
too, for they would havo been purnt up;
put it is all plain to my mint dow, lor
they were shust cast close py or near to
the firish furuauce. 0, I vash so glat
I vash here to-night!
And den, Mr. Brep.cher, it is said
dat Jonah vas cast into do whalesh
pelly. Now I never could peliet dat.
It alwaysh seemed to me to pe a peeg
feesh story, put it ish all blain to my
mind now; ho vash not daken iuto do
whalish pelly at all, put shust shumped
onto his pack and rode ashore. O, I
vash so glat I vash hero to-night!
And now Mister Breacher, if you
will shust explain two more bashages of
Scripture, I shall pe. O, so happy dat I
vas here to-night! One cf deiu is vere
it saish do vicked shall pe cast into a
lako dat purns mit fire and primstone

pe cast icto dat lake if I am vicked? or
shust close py cr near to uear enough
to bo comfortable: O! I hopes so! tell
me, I vill pe so glat I vas here to

saih, 'bleased are those who do these
commandments, that dey may have
right to the tree of life, and enter in
through the gates into the city. O!
tell mo I shall gets into the city, and
not shust close py or near to, shust

Tha First Colony of tho
ths Burlington & Missouri Liver
ltaiiroao. lianas.
On Thursday morning last, tho 15th
instant, the first colony of the present
season, bound to the lands of the B. &
M. K. It., passed through this city, at
an early hour.
The headquarters and starting point
of this colony was at Lynn station, on
tho Rockford, Rock Island and St.
Louis Railroad, a town about thirty
miles north of Monmouth, tho junction
poiut of the above railroad and tho C.
B. & Q. R. R.
They consisted of two full tiain
loads of sixteen and fifteen cars respec
tively, and presented a promising ap
pearance tor the future, as they passed
through the city, running closely to
gether. The thirty-one cars consisted of four
largo B. & M. coaches, holding passen
gers equivalent to two huudred and ten
full fares, six cari hoists, eight tars
cows and young cattle, five cars house
hold goods, and eight car wagons and
agricultural implements. They were
destiued to the lands laying arouud and
about Red Oak Junction, aud tho B. &
M. branch road to Nebraska City.
. We understand that this is tho first
of a series of such trains, which will bn
run during tho season for tho transpor
tation of colonists ami settlers bound to
the B. & M. lands in Southern Iowa
and Nebraska.
The plan which hns been adopted by
the railroad company has been to use
every means to induce settlers to carry
with them their stock and agricultural
implements, and all the useful and lux
urious surroundings of their old homes,
and so render themselves as comforta
ble and independent in the new countiy
to which they go, as they were in that
which they loft. Such transportation is
rendered practicable, easy and comfor
table, by the B. & M. Hailroad Com
pany furnishing settlers with low rates
of freight and passage from their start''
ing point to destination, and by lur
nUhing cars and coaches which go
straight through, without any change,
to destination so that the settlers start
ing from Columbus, Inpianapolis, Peo
ria, Detroit or Chicago in a body, cau go
through, without change, and at such
rates as render it unnecessary to adopt
the old custom of selling off stock and
household goods, and starting in the
legendary "Prairie Schooner."
Tha Nebraska lauds of the railroad
company are attracting especial atten
tion, not only from their fertility aud
general adaptiou for farms aud homes,
but, from the fuct that lying in large
bodies, opportunities are offered tor loca
tion ot settlements and colonies.

amount from her wages.

"Lo, w are not sleepy mother,
Pee bow wide awake we seetn;
Tell us something sweet to think of.
Tell ub something sweet to dream. .
"Tell the very wettest story
That you ever beard or lead.
And you'll see that well remember
Every singlo word you've said."
Then I told them of a midnight
In the very long ago,
When the sky was full of angles,
And from every shining row,
In a voice of heavenly music.
Came ft loving message, given .
For the sake of one sweet baby
That had come that night from, heaven.
"Now please tell as just another,
Tell the saddest one you know;"
And I told of one who Buffered,
And who wandered to and fro;
Doing good to all around Him,
Without fear, or sin, or prido;
Blessing those who most Ill-used Him;
For whose sake at last He died.
"Now, please, just one more dear mother,
Tell us now the strangest one;"
So I told them of a journey,
On a mountain top begun;
Through the azure, in a body.
Just as here on earth he trod,
Up through shining ranks of angels
To the very throne of Godl
Four blue eyes and two sweet voices
Waited till my tale was done,
Then they died, "Why, that wos Jesus
These three stories are but one!"

that, while they credit the Spirit with
omnipotence, do not ignore the duty of
using skill aud persistence in methods
any more than the Bible does? Plans
which shall not be abandoned, but
shall lay siege to the kingdom of dark

lies right in the path of tho Star of Em

centre of the great westward movement

three points.
These thrco points are the gateways
into threa great sections of tho trans

The Northern gate is Omaha, where
the great Pacifio road will take you to
the land of gold and grapes, sunny

The middle gate is Plattsmouth, which
opens upon tho south half of Nebraska,
