that no paper was issued from this office last

son. We had made arrangements for sup
ply of paper from the St. Charles paper mills,
which was to have been received several
weeks since, bu, which has not arrived. We
have borrowed OF our neighbors until borrow
ing has "ceased TO be virtue" and for our

are indebted TO the publishers Of the Wiscon-

for getting supply from Milwaukee. and un-
