N- The Gazette. of Wednxsda

/
contains ficticious communication, fgnet
'ritizen, which appeals TO the pecple q
Davenport TO stop taking the Den>rrat
and quit advertising in its columns
We have not the least objection "a any
fair effort the Gazette may make to increase
Its circulation and business, Tut we dospise
the dirty tricks it has lately resorted to-
The communication signed Citizen" was
written by one of the two Sanders, and not
by any Correspondent Of the Ga-cte. We
have no doubt they will deny that such is
the fact, for editors who, for the sake Of
gaining. greater weight to their operations.
attempt to palm off their own -inx>atSuas
for the productions Of respectable men, will
lie boldly and shamefully on any occasion
The bare fact of the Sanders attempting
to pass their own fa schools off as the com
munications of correspondence, shows clear
ly. their consciousness Of their own charac
ter. They are painfully aware that the
pubic places more reliance on the unsup.
ported operations of an anonymous CORES
pondent than on their most solemn assever-
ations
If the editors of the Gazette think our
business is too large, let them say SO ia an
official way, let them present a petition to
the public, stating that our circulation Is
increasing with great rapidity, and that the
good Of the Arcadian Sanders, as we'll as
that OF their wildcat hackers, reqires that it
shall be diminishcd--the citizans of Dayen
port may then take the matter into "opside
ration; but the dirty little rascals never
will accomplish anything so long as they
write envious attacks Oh cur business, and
attempt to father their sneaking bantlings
on Citizen" correspondents. Change your
hand, Citizen" Sanders change Your hand.

Of making extensive purchases of unim-
proved land, and having number offriends
also desirous of investing, would respect
fully request Messrs. Cook 4 Sargent to fur
nish us list Of the balance of the SOC, 900
acres of land which they say they hold for
sale. Upon examination, find that the list
as published in the Gazetts .Neps, Der Dan

10000 acres, only. Nearly all # that is
situated SO far distant from present anl pro-
spective improvements as to render it of
very little value in making my investment

like to see careful list of the balance
would further, respectfully suggest to
those gentlemen that they publish such list
in your valuable journal, as it is just now

THE ATLANTIC FOR MAY.-The May
No. of the Atlantic is before us, and con-
tains the usual amount of interesting mat
ter. This publication has become oRe OF
our permanent institutions, and one OF
which the country may well be proud
This No. completes the first volume, and
in this short space of time it has won fo'
itself a national reputation.
We have gwen this No. a cursory read
inc, and first, we find an article ON Gamer
lean Antiquities" in which the traditions
of the aborigines are compared with those
of the Old World, and the European or
igin of the American races made to look
quite probable. We think the poetry con-
tanned in the present No is superior to that
OF the preceding ones. There is lengthy
review of ''Henry Ward Beeeher's Life
Thoughts" "The Antocrat of the Break
fast Table," is as usual, philosophic and
interesting. Last, but not least, come the
ssLltersry Notices" which will reward a
careful perusal. In fact, the present No
of the Atlantic, fully sustains its forme,
reputation, which IS the greatest praise

AN OLD HoRsE.-An old horse is now
roaming over our Prairie, that was once
owned by Col. lack. Taylor, when he COM
msnded the garrison at this place, Al
though this horse has not achieved rep
utation equal to that of Old Whitley he IS
regarded with feelings ofrespect, by those
acquainted with the fact, that he once pore
on his back, the great hero of Buena Vista.
He is owned by some Frenchmen, and for
many years, has been considered to OLD
TO work. He has led life of honor and
usefulness, and is now quietly waiting the
fate, which none of his race ever escaped

Most of our readers have doubtless
heard of the robbery of the Hudson City
Bank a few nights since. The robbers
entered the banking house and blew open
the vaults with powder; the conclusion
was so strong as to break the windows,
and blow the siding off the building. The
robbers succeeded in getting $4,000 in
money and large number of valuable
papers. They were pursued and overtaken

At Mound Glove, River Falls, Pierce GO.
Wis, April 18th, 1883, the infant daughter o
JOHN and MARTA MCMILLAN.
The opening bud was snatched away,
From frosts of sin and woe;
Mc7neato mort let us write,
On all our acts below,
When we groan meath this load of sin,
Of sorrow, grief, and pain
We'd rather lose our other two,
Than have her back again.
But if, perchance, silent tear,
Should gather in the eye;
Well look to God TO comfort US,
cFor all, alas! must die.
