Nauscoda.

The completion of the Milwaukee and
Mississippi Rail Road 70 Prailiedu Chen,
has materially accelerated the growth of
the severl towns along The line Of the
road, and none more than the flourishing
town of Mnscoda, which promises to be-
come the largest between Madison and
Prairie du Chen. 1t is SO situated as to
command the trade Of a very extensive re-
gion Of country. The Depot buildings ut
this point are among the best and most
extensive on the line Of the Road. At
the last session Of the Legislature, a Char
ter was granted for the construction of a
bridge across thew isconsin River at that
place. 1t is designed to commence The
building of the bridge this Spring, and It's
viii greatly enhance the buisi-
ness Of the town. A fine Steam Saw
Mill was erected last season, and it is in
contemplation this season TO erect an ex-
tensive FIGURING Mill. A new Hotel will
be built this season near the Depot. Ii
is estimated that nearly fifty buildings
will be put up their during the coming
season. Mineral Point Tribune.

The MAN WHO woULbN' t PAY HIS FARE.
The authent icity of the following "riyer
ITEM is vouched for by gentleman who
Twas eve witness to it. Itappears that a
new second clerk had just been engaged BY
the steamer in question, who was anxious
to please, and accordingly determined to
distinguish by rigid discharge Of his du.
ties on bis first trip. When be entered
the engine room on his first collecting tour,
he found seated there number of men all
apparently belonging to the troublesome
class of ''deckers." Approaching one OF
them who was arrayed in a checked shirt
and old white hat, the clerk demanded his
fare. The fellow appeared atfirst some
what confused, but finally very seriously
proceeded to inform the clerk in an silli-
giant brogue," that be had no money. The
latter naturally indignant at this paipable
attempt to practice on his Innocence, de-
manded how he expected to travel on a
steamboat without money. The man an
swered imploringly: "Shure, and mabby

His honor, however, was not to be hlar-
neyed. He was convinced that the fellow
had money, and persisted in his demands,
the other repeating his pretestations aud
entreaties. After affairs had been in this
posture for some minutes, the refractory
passenger picked up stick and touched
The cock of the boiler. "Stop that!''
Numbered the clerk, "the engineer will
throw you overheard if be catches you at

seeming contrition, and the clerk. determ-

his amazement the only reply was vocif-

such communication. "Whys' said the

men were dispatched in pursuit Of jarrett,

the neighbors to hang theft both if taken.

WESTERN CRops-THE PROSPER. =,
The prospects, at present, for even an av-
srage cropof those great staple products OF
the west upon which all our prosperity de-
pends-wheat,c corn and oats---are anything
but cheering. They are, rather, decidedly
gloomy. Throughout Missouri the wheat
ha. been severely injured by the long con-
tinued and severe frosts, while the back.
wardness of the spring prevents the resuss
citation which warm, genial weather might
have produced. In the ATTITUDES fart er
south, where farming commenced several
weeks ago, the young corn has been cui
down. and the cotton and tobacco damaged
BY the frosts and freezes of the last week.
Old grain is getting scarce, from long
feeding, which the backwardness of pas
turage necessitated, and in some parts Of
the country. we learn that stock are IN
starving condition, on account OF the ina
bility Of farmers to get grain at reasonable
prices to feed with. Large amounts Of
corn have, during the present spring, been
shipped from St. Louis to the Ohio river

time, the same grain is being shipped in
small quantities to Hannibal, for consunp-
ton in that productive region. ia na.a
