The plan for recognizing the Milwaukee and
Mississippi road, under preferred stock of several
classes, has fallen through, and an attempt is now
making to reorganize under a new general mort
gage, to be given to the present creditors, in
proportion to be made satisfactory to those holding
Junior claims. The great difficulty in dealing with
these Wisconsin properties grows out of the
knavery which has been practised by their mana
gers, and the consequent dilapidated condition of
every interest in the State Of Wisconsin. The Nil
Yankee and Mississippi road is doing than last
year, and will hardly do better hereafter, though
it is carrying stuff at nominal rates in order to take
traffic from the Galeua.

The weekly Ottumwa courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1857-1872, 1860-11-15

The Squire had a friend to visit him on
business, and was very much annoyed t, be
inter- lpted by his wife who came to ask
what he wished for dinner.
"Go awayl let us alone !'' impatiently
said the Squire.
Business detained his friend till dinner
time, and the Squire urged him 10 remain.
The Squire was a generous powder, proud
of his table; and he complacently escorted
his friend to seat. A little to the surprise
of both, there was nothing on the board but
hug, dish of salil, which the good wife
began TO serve up.
"My DEAR" said the squire, "where axe
the meats
"There are none to-day,' replied his la
DIV.
"No meats. Whit in the name Of pever-
ty! The vegetables, then! Why don't
you have the eg,tables, brotgtt in.
"You didn't order any vegetables"
''order-T didn't order anything?' said
the amazed Squire.
"Yo2 forgot" cody answered the house
wife. "I asked what we should have, and
you said, Lettuce alon,sr Hore it IS
The friend burst into laugh; and the
Squire, after looking lurid and lugubrions a
moment joined him.
"Wite, | give it up. owe you one
Here is the fifty dollars you wanted for that
carpet, which | denied vou" The Squire
forked over. "Now let US have peace and
some dinner"
The good woman pocketed the paper,
rang the bell, and sumptuous repast Of fish
poultry and vegetables was brought in.
In few days afterwards the Squire re-
mained working in his garden sometime af-
ter the usual late hour. His wife grew i'm
patient of delay, and went to find him. His
excuse, when she asked what he was wait
ing for, threw her into hutter of excite
ment.
"Some ones to come to supper" she ex-
claimed. "Why didn't you tell me? de-
clare you are the provokingest man! - And
without asking which of his friends was ex-
pected, she hastened to change her dress and
"slick up her nair for the OCCASION This
DONE she came OFT and found the Squire
seated at the table reading his newspaper.
"Where's your company p
"My company? l haven't any compa-

"But you said you expected somebody to

"My dear, said no such thing. You
asked what was waiting for and said:
