WEDNEsDAY Y. ........JUNE 8, 1886,
FOURTH OF JULY.

We would suggest the propriety Of meeting
al tina Da Bnane Tavern on Il eaday, the gu.
inst, for the purpose Of taking into considera-
ton such measures as will be proper and re-
quisite for the celebration of the coming fourth
Of July. Every event viii transpirc to make
that day, perhaps, the proudest in the annals
Of our country. twill be the birth day Of
Wisconsin Territory; and that event itself
should be sufficient to draw forth the acclama-
tons Of every individual within its limits.
May every person take an interest in the
coming celebration; and render up that grateful
tribute of veneration and respect which is due
to the memory Of the heroes and statesmen Of
the American Revolution.

SUSPICION.

q
The weak and vicious are ever haunt
ed by suspicion. It is a foible rather
than vice, yet, productive Of great
deal Of mischief, and creates more un-
happiness to its possessor, than to the
object suspected. There are some peo-
plewho are always tormented by doubt,
fear, and suspicion; and it is, ! believe,
a generally admitted fact, that a suspi-
cious neighbor is very troublesome
one, and, indeed, sometimes dangerous;
if you perform for them an act Of kind
ness, they are fearful lest some hidden
purposes lurk under its generosity,
that may some day call for sy1npa-
thetic obligation. All Offices Of chari-
ty are attributed to inpropcrfnp tives,
and all overtures Of confidence scruti-
nized with jealossy and caution BY the
suspicious. Friendships are deemed
hazardous, bon 0f affinity, affections
ties, of hypocritical knavery There
is no reliance on the word Of suspi-
cious manno confidence to basrepos-
edin his honor. Fearfui of b1 DE
trayed himself, he is always deVising
plans to betray his fellows; and when
apparently most confidential in his in
tercourse, he IS the least to be depend
ed upon. We hate suspicious people
those who construe giddy ~ into
covered inuendo, and deducea insult
from an act Of familiarity. Freedom 81

BELMONT is handsomely situated in
commanding position between the two Platte
Mounds, in Iowa county, and in point Of beauty
aud healthfulness, is not surpassed in the
Western country. Occupying point where
the natural avenues Of the country unite, it
must ever possess superior advantages for the
transaction Of business. From this place are
found ridges leading to the Wisconsin on the
road to Prairie du Chen, to Van Buren,, to
Blue river, to Mineral Point, to the Willow
Springs, to the Mississippi opposite Du Buque,
and to Galena; and a Rail Road is expected to
be constructed from this place to some point
on the Mississippi river OF to Galena, which
will be commenced the ensuing year. Little
doubt now remains, that Belmont will be Sc
lected as the seat Of justice!of netc county.

LIBRARY ASSOC CITATION.

We respectfully invite the attention Of the
citizens of Du Buque, to an advertisement in
this days paper, calling a meeting for the
purpose Of forming a Library Association
The importance of such institutions isso well
known, that any remarks from usrgould seem
superauous. We cannot forbear mentioning,
however, that similar associations are formed
in almost every thriving townain our country;
and their influence on the moral and intellectual
character of the inhabitants, is universally ac-
knowledged. When facilities exist for OBJ
tanning books, a taste for reading, is impercep-
tbly acquired; and as virtue and knowledge
are almost inseperably connected, tits general
ly found that persons enjoying the privileges
Of a library association, gradually become as
simulated in habits Of virtue and refinement of
manners. We confidently believe that tie
citizens will cordially. unite in building up the
Institution.
