And came near making good deal of trouble.
But the compromise measure will bring some quiet
For the people it seems disposed TO stick by it.

The Banks for q short time, kicked up shndy,
Said trade was against US and they could not wn by
Discounting notes; for the species all going
Over to Europe, while doing
up brown And yetit is curious
They have more coin (not counting the spurious)
Now, than they had when they discounted freely
Last rear! It's true-see the tables of Greedy.
XIII
Emigration keeps up to fair Oregon
California too: they are still going on
That a man doing well-who contented should be
Should sell out his traps and take himself of
To a certain uncertainty. Sure all the froth
From the vile scum of crime and all that is evil,
Is there: and I'd as soon 60 to the devil
At once as think of going to place
Where for gold and the gallows they all nun race
At home few things claim thought and a word,
For our town is improving as strangers have hearo'
And q moment or two We propose Iust TO glance
At the things that around US have come ior per-
chance,
When another year passes, we too may be gone,
For old Time shows no favor to the weak or the
strong
The Rail Road soon will be here from Fort Wayne
Of the one from LapOrte the news is the same.
M. Schlo.s has come in with fine lot of clothing,
For all kinds of folks, which he sells AZ most moth
Nat Oelesbee's opened a monstrous great store,
With stacks of new goods of all kinds if not more
While Wallace and Foster at the door below
Have opend large Croe'ry without any blow
h,ao fo rfo nth bOyyeS Of success
Gu, 'Democrat'-printedo on new Types and Press
Devoted to politics, news and good reading,
With hint now and then at good morals and breed
ing,
It's worthy of patronage; SO fork out the dough,
And subscribe for copy; for all of you know
That it builds up the country and gives US a name
Ofbefriendng the things which at last lead to fame
And in new country there is naug ht for success
Like the wide circulation Of well sustained Press
G. S. CleavelaDd it seems concludedit best
To settle in Plymouth instead ofthe west;
So he put up building and brought ON some goods,
And he's ready TO scream for he's out Of the woods
But it's useless to name all the things we have new
In our fast growing town. l should never get thro'
If tried TO name all-so suffice it to say,
That during the past year, day after day,
New Lawyers, and Doctors, and Merchants aho
Mechanics and Tradesmen, and Children and Wo-
With strength, health and cash have entered our
borders,
Increasing our wealth and arraying IN order
The fruits of their labor full well manifested
By lasting improvements and capital vested

The LIouoR Law passed with such glorious hopes
OF doing more good than Cardinals and PoPes,
Has soone nv the board;' gone up;' run UNDER;
Knocked into cock'd hat; "a gin shop; no blunder
