Horse Thief-A man on last Thursday after.
noon had the boldness to steal q horse back in
the country, trade it for another at Monona. and
come down here with him, crossing the river in
daylight, but was followed and arrested the
next day at Prairie du Chen.
Horse-stealing is becoming 80 common, that
course similar TO that pursued last year by
the inhabitants Of Vinton, this State, will soon
be necessary to psptect propsty. from these
graceless scamps who think all the honesin the
country belong to them. They, ~ our readers
remember, shot few Of the professional horse
thieves and put stop to the business for while.
We would not advocate such proceeding, I'M
til all other preventives fall but, as in the caseat
Vinton, think when thieves exist in 50 large a
number that it il impossible TO convict man
when owing to the number of his accomplices,
an abb can be proven without difficulty, no
means will effectually contribute to intimi
date them, but some such summary punish.

The "Foarth."-Are We to have anything
done in McGregor, to honor this coming Ami
versary. or isthere not enough patriotism among
our citizens to get up celebration of that day,
worthy of the best town Of its size in the
West.
We notice in our exchanges that other towns
in the State are taking steps towards having
real old fashioned celebration, why can't we do
the same?
There are pleasant groves in abundance i'm
mediately around Us where an grafton might
be delivered, which would accommodate all who
wished to listen, and plenty Of speakers to be
had who might, with credit to themselves Off
ciate on the occasion.
We hope some Of our influential citizens will
take hold of this, if they feel any interest in
the matter. and would appoint w. H. Harding,
ESQ.,, committee of one, to take the affair in
hand, as he will accomplish favorable result,
If any one can, What say you Mr.. Harding,
shall We have celebration?

he csinces sullen, bulldog spirit. which at
once proves him capable of going to any excess
in crime. and to be man not to be triaed with.
We cannot suppress feeling Of regret, that
such man, young and with family. should
forfeit the respect of his fellow men, and bring
Disgrace upon all with whom he isconnected, but
sympathy for him should not have weight with
judge or jury, and we hope that in his case, no
cause will be given for that dissatifaction
among the people, that was manifested at the
result of the trial Of some of his accomplices.

ale is a Baptist, and belongs to the
church of Rev Mr.. Adams, on Chris

to preach by that church, and is just
now attracting large crowds to hear
him. His style is vehement; his SER
mons have in them much method; he
speaks wholly extemporaneously; and
his system of theology seems to be ma

and more conservative schools of the
day. He is certainly quite precocious.
What the end will be no one can fore

M ILL take you to the Depot in double quick
" time! The undersigned are running a
daily line of Stages from the following named
points, to connect with the Lacrosse cars, to
wit: From Stevens Point to Portage City. BY
way OF Flower, Buena Vista, Plainield, Han
cock, Caloma, Adams, Packwaukee, Oxford and
Briggsvile. Also from Stevens Point, by way
OF Plover Grand Rapids, Saratoga, Preston,
Grand Marsh, Dell Prairie, to Kibourn City
Also, from Neceedah to Kilbourn CITY, bv the
way of Germantown Quincy, Cascade, or White
Greek and Deli Prairie
These lines of Stages, furnish to the inhabi-
tants OF the Pine Region, the means of getting
from Stevens Point or Grand Rapids to Milwau-
kee in little less than one and a half DAYS, and
besides the fare is lower than any other route,
and any one who wishes to so to Milwaukee can
on one OF these lines be taken to Kilbourn City
or Portage City, in one day, and the next morn
ing at half past five the cars will leave for Nil
waukee, and arrive there at half past eleven ;
and any one wishing to come into the Pine Re-
glon can rely upon always being able to get a
Stage at Portage City or Kilbourn, in the morn
ing, going North and North West, to any of the
points above mentioned. We have good Coach
es on all of these routes, an abundant supply OF
good horses, and drivers that are sober and t,ss
tn, and who obey orders, and have their instruc

we will say, that at Stevens Point, an opportu
nifty is afforded, either by Stage or Steamboat
to go north to Trading Post, Knowlton, Little
Bull Falls, Wausau, Eau Claire Jenny Bull ant
Marathon City And from all by the same
means they come to Stevens Point and take thi
stage line to any place they choose north O
Portage City; so it will seen that there is n,
necessity for patroAizing Foot & Walkers line
unless the traveller prefers that mode of loco
motion. MYERS a. BONUM.
