TOnica.

Although there is no map Of Illinois new
enough to have on it the name of Tonics, as
the village is scarcely year old, we venture
to say no map maker will fail to note its
whereabouts hereafter. Surprised, week
ago, at receiving from there club of thirty
odd subscribers, swelling our list at the Of
flee to size exceeded by only one other
village in the county, we made some inqui-
ries as to the size, progress, &C., of Tonica,
when fortunately our friend ScooTFSpYKE re-
lieved us by furnishing the foloa;ng cheer
ing and satisfactory items:
an counting over the inhabitants Of the
thriving village Of Tonica, find they mum.
Der about 200 There is good school in
the village, with about 40 scholars. The
number in the district drawing public money
is H. A church of good size is in process
Of erection. Two stores are in operation,
one Union store, with between 40 aud
90 members. Their trade, | understand,
amounts to from four to five thousand dol.
lars a quarter. The other is n new store, and
does fine business; while lot has just
been sold for Il third store.
"Ihe town supports no loafcrs, for there
is no place for them. There is no dosgery
in the village, Whenever man gets there
to sell whskey that the citizens cannot shut
down upon, they will let the public know it |!
The cnterprising proprietor, A. j. WEST,
Esq, made provision for the evil, and in.
serted clause in all the deeds and leases
prohibiting the making or selling Of the cor.
dent in any shape or form. Lawyers the
town has none, and needs none. There is
an acting justice in the place, who was elect.
cd year ago last spring, but he has not yet
had case to dispose Of Every man has
business enough of his own and attends to
it, The Illinois Central Railroad passes
through the town, but considering the
amount Of business it affords them, the com
pany make miserable show in the way of
depot buildings.
