towns and villages spring into existence in Wiscon
sin.
FAIR-PLAY.
During the past week. we have visited this
gic place land 1t well deserves the name,) where,
eight months ago, not dwelling was to be found;
there Is now thriving village, full OF hte, hustle,
and activity of business. About the first OF July
last. some discoveries of mineral were made at this
place about one mile west of Snslnawa Mound III
the vicinity OF the residence of Gen. Geo W. Jones,
since which time, several large LodeS of mineral
have been discovered, and now, thousand enter
prising tearing up the surface OF old Moth
er Earth, in search of the hidden treasure. The
town of Fair Play proper contains at this time about
60 buildings; among them are 3 taverns . stores,
8 grocery and provision stores blacksmith shop,
| market livery stable, and schoo-house; there
is Temperance Society, containing 100 members;
there also 3 justices of the peace, and any
quantity of fine fellows. la the vicinity OF FAIR
Play there is number little villages, named ac-
cordng to the fancy OF the first settlers, 4" No Gou-
ging," "Pinch Gut, "Tail Hole,'' &c, all con-
tanning an industrious population and of which
Fair Play is the great centre. We informed
that the population of FairP Play and its environs
would not, at this time, vary much from Taoo Thou
sand.
Stranger! stop! What do you think of this?-
built up and doing a thriving business in months
time, with no bank to aid it, and speculation to
crush, based upon the pure metallic foundation.-
This is the way things are done in the Mining
Country. But, stranger don't be in hurry =
there are other wonders here besides big lodes of
mineral. They find the big bones of the Mastodon
or Mammoth. We at the cabin of Messrs
Sheldon & Co. some teeth and bones that must
have belonged to an old SetHer-the teeth would
probably weigh four pounds each, and some OF the
leg of the rGrnnt would beat elephant to DEATH
They found in crevice in the rock, As feet
below the surface, and surrounded by mineral. All
of the bones have not been got out; should sufficient
be got out to give chance for calculation of the
size of the monster that was, we will endeavor to
give the same to the public.
Communication with Fair Play is convenient and
frequent, with Galena, Platteve, Potos &c,
Messrs. Rollins, Kellogg, 81 Co. run daily line of
stages to and from Galena In conclusion, Fair
Play, go ahead! Miners we wish you big lodes,
good wives, happy homes, and lots of little miners
