fellows Catawba song, beginning thus:
Very good, in its way,
Is the Yerzenay,
Or the Sillery, soft and creamy
But Catawba wine
Has taste more divine,
More dulcet, delicious and dreamy.
Gen. Morris, of the Home Journal, who is a
good judge of these things, speaks highly of this
song, and of the composers singing oft Demp-
ster has also adapted and sings Tennyson's
touching
BuGLE song.

And snowy SUBMITS old in story;
The long light shakes across the lakes,
And the wild catarect leaps in glory.
Blow, bugle, blow, set the wild echoes flying:
Blow, bugle: answer, echoes, dying, dying, dying.

And thinner, clearer, farther going:

And grow forever and forever.

We publish elsewhere the standing CON.

some years the Northern and Western

given expression to their dissatisfaction In

complaints in the new arrangement, but truth

grain. stimulates all with renewed and vg-
orous energy 10 sow and reapa rich reward.
And with our usual delightful, growing sea-
sons large and valuable surplus will be
produced II Is asserted aud believed by
many that the counties OF Fillmore and
Houston will produce grain enough, the
coming season, to supply the wants of our
whole State, Tor the succeeding twelve
months.
The county OF Fillmore has transacted o
large and profitable business during the past
winter in the sale OF Flour aud Pork TO the
interior counties. Her many superior -four
ing mills are not surpassed by any in the
West, and her Pork crop is rapidly increas-
ing from year TO year.
Permit mt, before closing, TO say one
word in behalf of our own town Of Chatiield,
situated in the broad and beautiful valley of
Root River, in Fillmore county. This town
contains between eleven hundred and twelve
hundred inhabitants is handsomely situated
upon high ard level bench of land, and is
steadily and permanently improving. 1t
contains two printing Offices, u fine academy.

FIRST class Touring mill. one steam and two
water saw-mills, one brewery, one tannery,
together with all other mechanical shops
usually found in small towns. But. unlike
almost every other place in the west, there
is no branch Of business overlone ia this
town, and none of which but would admit
OF successful competition. Negotiations
are now pending for the erection Of an ex-
tensive paper mill, as also u planning mill
in connection with general pachne shop,
the coming season, on fine water power
near this place. In twelve or eighteen
months at most, the S. VI. II. Il. will be fin

without doubt, Chatfeld will take her posi-.
