ADVANTAGES OF THE ORGAN HARNONL
UNI FOR CHURCHES
We deem the Organ Harmonium to possess several
advantages over small pipeorgans, among which are
the following
1st. Its price-being furnished at less than one
half the cost of an organ with the same amount of
power and variety.
I'd. The comparatively small size of its case-occu-
plying much less room than an organ.
Sd, The fact that it is not affected by heat or cold
change in the weather temperature.
4th. Its property for remaining for long period in
good tune. This is desideratum in places at dis
lance from organ manufactures

nmP Within the last week or two bust
ness has revived here considerably, Wheat has
be n coming in quite freely and has comman-
d4 a fair price, which has put the farmers IN
fluids and given fresh impetus to trade. Our
streets wear livelier aspect and present more
the appearance they wore in '55, SO, than at
any time since that period. Many farmers,
however, are yet busy with their threshing, and
have not marketed a bushel of their grain, so
that we have not as yet had fair taste of what
is to follow bye and bye in the way of receipts

Haze seen the Elephant il ulius Nerlich
and August Watering. of this city, who took it
into their heads last spring to go to Pixies
Peak, returned from there last Saturday, and
express themselves perfectly satisfied with the
sight they had of the elephant. They give a
discouraging account of matters and things as
at present existing in that region, and consider
the Rocky Mountain gold fever as one of the
greatest humbugs of the day. They say there
is gold there, but it requires good deal more
effort to get it than it does to dig it out of the
soil of Wisconsin. We apprehend this is about
the true state of the case, If a man has moth
ing but his own hands to depend on, and has to
rely upon them as a means to get fortune out
of the earth, he never will make any Roadway
in the Pixies Peak gold regions He wants
capital and brains besides, or he can never
work his way through Unless he has these
and can avail himself of the inventions for
crushing the quartz, sc. &C., he has no bust
ness to undertake to make money by mining
He had better stay away from that country,
and not try to make fortune by any such
means Such has been the experience of
number who have been there. and with whom
we have conversed upon that subj ect.

an E.rtensive Drug .Store-We believe
we have never called attention to the estab-
lishment of our friend, G. C. Wainwright, but
we trust he will not think that because heis be-
meath us in location that he is also beneath our
notice, or that we have so regarded him. His
stock, which always embraces a full assortment
of Goods in his line is now unusually well filed,
as his fall purchases are just being received
Of course we cannot say anything about the
quality of his Drugs and Medicines for we have
no occasion to use such; but as to the variety
we may be permitted to mention that it is deei-
dedly great There are enough there we think
to kill regiment. We don't advise people to
buy anything of that kind but if they sciH do
it, we suggest to them that Wainwright's is the
place to deal He also keeps Paints, Oils, Pa
per Hangings, Books, Paper, &c, &c.
Cattle Shop and Fair-We understand
that several of our enterprising citizens have
established Cattle show, to be held in this city
every three months, commencing on the
first Saturday in October next, for the ben
eft of Farmers. Drovers, and Cattle dealers
generally.
Such an institution has long been needed
here. and the wonder is that it has not been or
canized before There is large extent Of
country around WATERFOWL that must of neces-
sty find market here, for all its surplus prod
ucts; and our citizens should afford the farmer
every facility and inducement in their power
to come here and make this, what it can easily
be made to be, great market place.
These cattle shows have been instituted IN
several Of the surrounding towns. and so far as
we have been informed in the matter, they
have been attended with good results. They
bring together large number of farmers and
cattle dealers, who buy, SELL aud trade general
ly, in horses, cattle, sheep, and other kinds of
live stock The facilities Ct transportation from
here to Milwaukee, Chicago. and to all points
North and West US, are such that when these
Fairs or market days become once established
and known, as they should be, buyers from all
these points can come together as they probably
will. to make purchases and exchanges of stock

BENJAMIN Douglas, living at Johnson's Creek
in this county, was thrown from his wagon
when on his way to the depot with load of
wheat. falling directly under the wheel which
passed directly over his head, mutilating and
injuring him very badly. The only strange
thing about the matter is that the man was not
instantly killed. There were thirty bushels of
wheat in the wagon at the time. At last ac-
counts Mr. D. was alive, though he was not ex-
