We wish here TO express the obligations
which, on several occasions, we have been
under personally. aud as an humble represen-
tatiys of the press, to the directors and officers
Of the 3. 4 NJ. Il. Railroad, including espe-
cisily the able and efficient snperio endent,

has. scharged in manner highly creditable
to.i,imse!f. and much to the satisfaction OF the
travelling public. the laborious and responsible
duties Of conductor from the opening of the

trusted with the management and interests of
the road, AMI we trust that as 1t is extended
further west to Ottumwa, and westward to
the Missouri. that it may reaua:n under the
same careful, watchful and efficient superyis-
ion. fs a. "a Is q a#s ssTs
There is no pleasanter road to travil onthan
the % miles OF the Burlington Road, now In

spring with the bes; eastern tracks, and from
all accounts is Infinitely superior TO the road
West frcm Davenport. We were glad to lea IN
too, that it is doing avery large passenger and
freight business. The daily receipts from the
former source alone being about $500. In op-
GRAFTON tothe Des Moincs it will pay, we YER

be interested in the item Of fencing to our adver
tisemeht SIS s{ se ~ K3flf
For Farmers 1t Is the best possible kind Of fence that
can be used particularly In fencing on praires where
that 10 not without much labor and expense timber
and rock can be obtained 1t is the lightes cheapest
strongest and most durable iron fence that has ever
been tested besides requiring less repairing than any
other II has been used to great extent both In the
Eastern and Middle States and in all cases has met
with the general approval of the public. $50
To those who require fence for front yard OF
house lot we recommend wire fences being just the
thing for while they possess only neatness
and durability In themselves they possess
over others, Ia that they disfgure landscape OBJ
struct lawn and that they enhance rather than de
stroy the symmetry and beauty Of ornamental grounds
We take pleasure In recommending this style Of fence
to Railway corporations and contractors generally
feeling confident that II h the best cheapest strongest

If there is a free school their children 60; II
nottiey get no SC hooling, except what is found
in the streets. Now it is duty which the
community owes to itself to remedy, at any
