"Tiik pKr ye have always 'with you," is a text that should be considered by all now that the cold weather has fairly set in. Now more than at other times it be comes the duty of communities to look after this unfortunate class of their popu lation. While in small towns like tins we have little or none or that abject poverty that one sees in the cities, yet there are many to whom a helping hand should lie extended in order that they may te com fortable during the winter.

TuosE good old, time-honored institu tions known as 'husking bets" and "ap pie butter boilings" w ith many another old rural custom, have gone out ot lathion to a considerable extent in "this country, and it is but rarely that we hear ol a gathering ofthis kind. In the eood old times people looked not so much at the amount of labor that would lie performed as at the social. hennv, feelings that would oe engenucreo. Affairs of Ibis kind always wound op with a auooer and a dance, and "they went borne with the cirls in the morning." In those later days, however, when th inaior:. of men bow at the shrine or lh. almichiv dollar, they have allowed those customs to fall into disuse for fear that they may have to stretch their purse strings. -- - . vi A Tiiriiliso Volume.

The gelatinous matter often found niion the stones of a well is poison to the human system, caus ing by its spores a fermentation of the blood, with the abnormal heat of fever. Wholesome, untainted water is always tree from all color and odor. To test it thoroughly, place in it a few grains of lump sugar, and expose it, stopiered, to sunlight, in a window.

All this distance has lieen excavatca through solid rock, and is the result ot vears of arduous toil. The opening up of the cave is alone an event worthy of spe cial men! ion. Something that resembles a brass so.d, corroded with the nisi of un told centuries, was lound occupying a niche m one of its chamber. The cave must necessarily at some formor period have been inhabited. By whom, and when! and where is the owning that leads from the outer world to the interior of this sub terranean edifice? These are questions which engross the attention of all our thinking mpn. The ground has been thoroughly surveyed io every direction, but no possible mode of ingress can be lound.

In this connection says the Lanca.- ter Erpre, it liecomes a matter ot interest to recall the laci that me oiu uiramuucr cave Ut the deceased (b his last will and icatHiiipnt) an annuity of 8800, and, if certain conditions which he imposed upon deceased had been complied with, the whole estate would have reverted to him ; otherwise the estate was to go to the found ing of an orphan asylum for the use of all denominations, races and colors. Inas much as Col. Stevens did not comply with the condition of the will, the entire estate (barring a few few small bequests) will go to the the founding of a great orphan asy lum in Lancaster. 1 no estate is variously estimated to be worth from $100,000 to f 150,000. The will designated the south ern section of Lancaster south of East or West King street as the location lor the asylum ; and we understand that certain parties in that section are now reauy i" give the land just as soon as theexecutois, Hon.0. J. Dickey, Hon. Edward M'Pher son and Hon. A. E. Roberts are ready to proceed with the building. Sad Occurhekce. The Latrobo Ad- tanc of last week says : "Quite a sad occurrence, that of the ac cidental poisoning of a very interesting child of Dr. Donnelly, occurred in our midst durine the past week. It appears that the child was playing in the yard and coming across a bottle of rat jioison which had been thoughtlessly thrown there, got some of it in its mouth and swallowed it. When the mother took the child into the house she took notice that its clothing was covered with some substance emitting a very disagreeable smell. Upon cxamin ing the place where it had been playing, the bottle containing the poison was found. The odor was occasioned by the phosphor us contained in the poison. Sometime during the night the child was taken very sick, but hugered several days, gradually getting worse until it was released from sufferinsr on Saturday night last. A soon as the nature of the poison wjieh the child had taken, was discovered, all that human power could do was done for it, but with out avail." Tue sight of a once familliar face reviv ed some long-forgotten or only dimly-re membered Incident ot lormer tunes. When Professor Stutzman's classical acad emv was one cf the institutions ot Somer- seL and the streets were perhaps unduly familiar with the students of famous "Dotheboys Hall," the lollowing scene was of such frequent occurrence, as to be come a siandinr joke : Two students meet at the corner of the Diamond and Main Cross Street. Number 1, loquitur) "Got any tobacco 'bout ye?" No. 2 "No 1 1 don't use it." No. 1 "Can't you gim'me a eeeg-yart" No. 3 "Don't smoke, I tell vou !' No. 2 "Oh ! don't you." W"ell Jet's go over to Bill Colvin's (2 moves assenlingly) and you treat. 1" No. 2 Moves off indignant No.' 1, making a, last eiTwt, cries: "Can't you giin'me a napple, or what La that in yer pocket T" This was of course overdoing it, but that boy, used to the prodigality of the students among themselves, had got to expect something or the offer of it when ever he met one of them, and consequently became a bore. fnrt rroceelinpa.

W. DeII. Falls City, Neb. ) Nov. 4. 1S71. J Editor Herald: I have been a con stant render of your most valuable paper for quite a number of years, more attentively since I live in liie West. It comes to us every Saturday night, bringing Somerset County news, and 13 carefully read by the entire family. Many of our eastern friendssuppose lhat we who live out here in Nebraska have to live in a rough way and are subject to all the nrivation and hardships of a frontier I life, and that wc have to held on to our i :...,... ii i f...i: n iocks io Keen vne wo j luuuws h inging them in their belts, and exist in mortal terror of being trampiea io aeaiu by buffilo. Our houses are supposed by such to bv; holes dug in the earth, and that our cities exist only on paper. We are supposed to live on prairie liens and an telopes, uur ClOlliing is sam io cousisi principally of deerskins aud linsey wool. It some ol the persons who entertain sueu ideas woulioome out here, it would be amusing to see their look of surprise on their facc3 as they would ride through the streets of our cities and see the beauti ful busiucss blocks, beautiful private resi dences and splendid school edifices. They would be no less astonished to see the nicely 'cultivated farms and comfortable farm houses furnished with all the luxu ries of eastern homes. The dug-outs do not appear. Our cities they jiud a sober reality, ami tue incrans ao not pan-oui worth a cent. The facts are, the people of Nebraska live as comfortably and their cities are ns well built as in the Slates further East. It is true that men going to the frontier to make homes for themselves, who -have Utile or no money, necessarily subject themselves to many privations. Ike lrontiersman, however, is lnnnueiy better off and has better prospects for the future tbrn the. poor of other sections of the Union. Men who will work can do well here, but the drones have a hard time of it. It requires men to be active, industrious and persevering if they expect to succeed. It there is any work in a man the west will bring it out. " If a man is made of punk and roiten woxl he had better stay at home and be fed by his father and waited on by his mother, mouldering through life without doing anything for himself but waste victuals. But let ail the bright, vounz and vigorous come and win their reward. There are thousands of acres of prairie soil yet uncultivated, awaiting tlie plowman. Our fall grain Uioks very promising in this part ot the State, I releer more partic ularly to the southeastern part with Richardson county as a centre, a locality that is truly the garden ot the country. li. 11. A visit to Mt. Storm. During my residence ia Bloomington, W. Va., busi ness culled mo to tlie Allegheny Moun tains. Il so happened that Friday, the day fixed for n pic nic at Mt. Storm, pre ceded the day I was to lie at North Branch, and enabled me to conveniently attend the rural gathering. About 4 o'clock p. m. found me dismounting at ill. Storm. From a grove near by came the sound of merrimcn',1 a dim sound of music, and a hoarse rumbling - soured lis unto forty boys jumping up aud down on a platform. Wendimj my way thither, I here and there met stragglers from the centre of enjoyment, some w iping the per spiration off Their faces as if just relieved from active duty, others had the graceless swagger and perpetual smile ol men "half shot" and at peace w ith the world. One, seeing I w.ia a stranger, generously drew from his pocket a small flask and levelled it at me. 1 dodged, however, leaving the shot for a more susceptible subject Further along, a squad had lormed a circle and were amusing themselves sparring in regular prize-ring style ; two ot the most scientific were in the ring facing each other with a good natured pic nic grin. Friends stood round cheering at every pass. Now they went in, "squatted," "shied" and spread their brawny bruisers like sheep heads, and finally grappled each other like twin brothers. Both con vinced of their prowess and satisfied with its exhibition, retired in harmony behind a friendly oak and "smole" on a phiai of "olive water" and closed the tableau, A little further down, In the center cf about one -hundred men, women and children, I halted a second time. Lemonade, cigars, cool mountaia water, &c,, was dispensed from a liule stand near by. A platform of plank had been arranged on some scant ling, and hero was the centre of excite ment The parties were not all in ball costume, though some of the ladies were prettily dressed and presumed an ap pearance of grace and beauty that a city belle might envy. They danced in ear nest ; none of youtfiniciil or fancy steps, but genuine, original "heel and toe"' outs that keep the fiddler wide-awake. One huge fellow attracted eyccial attention. I couid not describe, him. without one of Nast's cuts. Imagine however, a fig ure like a spliced hominy block, with a nose like the tail of a comet, a fxt like a sugar trough and hands like a biace of saplings, hammering and slashing around promi&cuou&ly. Fortunately his (lancing was welfdistrilmted or the floor must have given way. When ltc promenaded it was something between a double-shuttle and a single-fooled rack, and though the violin-1 ist's arm worked like tlie piston rod of a Wmel back engine, his music was left far! behind in these dashes. One ambitious j fellow, not a dancer, appeared in a sky blue roundabout, and pants trimmed with gaudy red stripes, running i angles and triangles around h,io. It was. a cross be tween a fancy groom and a zouave uni form.' 'Tf hne 'for' disbanding approached, Lovfe'vcr, ' and the crowd, in wagons, buggiea, and mounted two on a horse, sought a neighboring house where it was contemplated continuing the festivities of the day. Further than this deponent knowei'n not. That these honest hearted mountaineers (although a mountaineer myself,) enjoyed their holiday in a manner never realized in cities and towns, no one who hud participated could doubt. '1 he occasion was one to be renumbered with pleasure by the participants! But, , for a little too "free circulation of adulterated w ater, no exception could Le taken, to. the conduct of any.
