1t will be gratifying news to>many who are
interested in this enterprise that the contract
for constructing that portion, of the Kenosba
Rockford and Rock Island Railroad between
this city and Dixon has been let, and that the
work will be commenced early next spring
We learn that the contractor is Mr. Babcock of
New York city, and as we are informed, lie
contracts to complete the road to Dixon and
supply,it with the necessary rolling stock by
December. 1861. This puts the enterprise be-
yond all doubt Of an ultimate and speedy COM
pedon through to Rock Island. -ROoktord

The Metropolitan Eating Rooms were crowd
ed the other night on the occasion of the meet
ing Of the judges to decide who were entitled to
premiums for raising the largest and heaviest
vegetables, among which were white cabbage
weighing "a lbs, pure red ditto, l6 lbs, winter
radish, lbs, turnips carrots &c. raised by Mr..
Adam McAuley, of Pleasant Prairie; beet;
weight % lbs. raised by S.B. Myrick of Bristol,
second best beet, weight II lbs, entered by j
Grove Esq. The largest potatoe weight lbs.
Q OF. entered by j. Bond Esq. Also lot of
very large English turnips raised by W. Nor
gan Esq Pleasant Praire and many other things
which for want of space We will not mention
now, as full list will be published hereafter
But what we wish more particularly to say is
this we have travelled some but never in
oil our peergrinations have we ever seen such
monstrous Oysters, such luscious, fat, solid BIZ
valves as were served up at the Metropolitan
that night. In fact enc of the Judges came
very near being choked in the attempt to swal-
low one of them, the only thing that could have
happened to mar the hilsrity of the occasion.
And then such Ale and Porter is not drawn this
side of sunrise. Now don't believe us but 90
and see for yourselves and as Capt. Cutie saws
"Make note of it," You will find they sell
Fresh Oysters raw, 90 and cooked 25 cents and
everything you want in the Eating line as cheaI
as the cheapest. You will find Old Phelps ant
Veszie always on hand to serve up anything
you want from five cents up. Give him cal

PAY YOUR PREACHER PROMPTLY
can Outside Observer" in the PresJytc-
tiaH Herald invites attention to matter
which is, We fear, much neglected. His
remarks are somewhat honsety, but they
are pointed and adapted to utility. He
says:
1t is lamcn table fact, that even here,
in this blue grass region, there are many
delinquents. Do you, who omit to pay
your subscriptions for two, four, or six
months after they are due, over think how
seriously you may be effccting the credit
and character of your minister! You can
think of your own interests; why not be
charitable enough to give a thought to one
OF Foods agents with whom you have cove.
nanted When you execute your note at
four month, payable at the Northern Bank
you meet that promptly-that don't 90 to
protest oh, no; you may want favor
some time from the bank, and it would not
do to have the record against you. But
you pay your minister when you get mon.
ey that you can't find any other use for.
Suppose some one, hard up for ready
money, comes along with lot of calves, a
bunch of sheep, or mulc colt, and offers
them very low for cash, leaving margin
Tor twenty or forty dollars don you think
you could raise the ncedful somewhere -
L rather think you would. Another thing
you should remember, and that is, that il
Is much easier for each subscriber to raise
his subscription than it would be for poor
prorchNr to raise the sum total. You know
full well that your minister can't buy his
goods payable when your subscriptions ara
paid, but must get them on six months as
the rest Of you do, which he does, and
agrees to pay, calculating, from your obli-
cations TO pay him somi-annually, which
not being done, he is subject to the mer-
chants harrassing dun. And if (whcp
the account is finally settled, and it is a.
greed between the merchant and minister
that he may open another,) you could be
behind the curtain in the counting room.
you might hear The merchant say, "Clerk
we can't afford to sell this reverend gen.
tlcman goods at the same prices that wo
do to men who pay promptly, so you must
aad about ten on regular prices to him,
and II we can't make our own in this way
we will, after this term, close the account
See now the condition of your minister
And when you have been the cause of hi,
credit being ruined, you, in all probability
will join in with the world and say preach
erS ought to be honest, and not obligat,
, themselves to do what they cannot.
Hoping that you will not forget that
f mi nsters arc mortal and have to live as
do other people, 1 leave you, with the
, promise to call agaid if you don't do bet,

THE WHITE MOUNTAINS.


The White Mountains have often been
compared with the celebrated mountains
of the Old World, and, almost invariably,
unfavorably. A recent writer, however,
one who, evidently, has travelled in many
lands-thus speaks of the scenery in the
White Mountains, compared with that of
the Scotch Highlands, or the lower Alps,
or the Jura :-"Wherein," he asks els it
inferior! In no respect, to my eyes," he
answers "but rather finer in its forms
and combinations. To be sure, it lacks
the magic of old associations; but this if
it be defects one which is soon for
gotten. The principal difference is one
which applies to almost all American
scenery. Virgin nature has a COM
plotc charm Of its own so has ma
ture under subjcction, cultivated, enriched
finished as a dwelling g-pace for man; but
that transition state, which is neither one
thing nor the other, gives an unsatisfacto
ry impression in the midst Of our highest
enjoyment. Imagine the intervales of hle
Saco under thorough culture, the grass
fields thick and smooth, the grain heavy,
not a stump to be seen, the trees develop
cd in their proper forms, fair pastures OH
the hillside, shepherds cottages high up
on the mountains, thrifty villages, farm
houses and summer villas scattered ovcl
the landscape, and what is left for the eye
to crave? But take it now, with its fire.
quent unsightly clearings, its fields dotted
with ugly stumps, and the many single
trees which, growing up spindly in the
midst ofothers are now left standing alone
robbed Of their characteristic forms, anc
you will readily see that here are discord
ant clements in the lanscape. 1t is no
always the absolute superiority of natur,
which we recognize we are influenced b,
these indirect impressions, and they ar
not to be reasoned away" Who, afte
reading this glowing description, but feel
an ardent desire to stand upon those noun
tain tops and view the glorious sccncr.
spread out around But before one cal
fulfil this desire he must first learn tn
best, most comfortable and expedition
route by which to go there. If he be ;
New Yorker, Or have to pass through th'
city, he will take the Norwich and Wor
cester line, by steamer ad railcars, from
piers No two, Hudson River, near the bat
terry, the boats, of which line, the Con
necticut and Vanderbilt, arc surprised fo
safety, speed and elegance.
