-IssLEE's CHEAP New YORK STORE.
Ita in be seen by reference TO this estab-
,hment's advertisement that he is deter
mined 10 maintain the reputation he has al
ready acquired of being the cheap one price
store. Give him call and you will find
goods chap.
Among those of the excursonists
VII, were ON their return homeward, we had
the pleasure OF call from Mr.. BRoss, one
ui the editors Of the Chicago Press. In his
personal appearance, Mr.. d. well represents
the character Of the paper which he con-
dutis-one would take him to be ,adepen-
den, and enterprising. both Of which quail
ties are marked features of the Press.
We learn from a numbcrof the Mus
eaiine Escursonsts that they had very
pleasan, time; nothing like an accident oc-
cured and the whole affair fulfilled oil the
promises made by the programme. Foat
car loads left this point,--they went down
in four heurs. the utmost care having been
lasen 10 avoid accidents commcndabie
preeauon and one winch should always be
observed on such occasions. The people o!
Mlscalne entertained their guests in the
Hn,t hands me manner, sparing no trouble
or expense TO make the enjoyment common
10 all,
Mr.. N. ID. SPRINGER has just erect
ed slaughter house in ravine back OF
Fulton's addition to Davenport, where he
is prepared to slaughter from GOO to 500
hog. per day.
We observe that the Gas Company
at Wa'er,own, Wis, propose to supply the
service pipe from the main pipe to the in
side of the building, free of expense. If
ourcompany would do the same, the in
creased quantity OF gas consumed would
soon compensate them for the small nd
ditional expense.
-Yesterday was the "first Of the sea
son" in regard TO cold weather. People
hurried along the streets as if there was no
such word as lettering. in the books; and
though there are few lazy or unoccunied
persons in town that we know OF, the most
incident would have felt or seen few charms
in, the atmosphere or any Of the surrounding
scenery, to have held him long in standing
position. Towards noon it thawed a little
around the edges, but keen wind held its
own through the day.
And tho Ills not yet hearipg
The snow drifts cold and whte,-
The sounds it made told pretty plainly that
il would shortly be a, that kind Of work.
ESeveral more drovcs of fine hogs

that they displayed decided Discrimination
to going on the ferry-boat, as though they
were like militia soldiers, who however will
