We must make SONS allowance for this

FELL IN,

Great excitement Was caused yesterday af-
ternoon BY tho falling OF the wess wall Of
the brick Livery Stable Of Messrs. Mckee
4 Simpson. The upper part Of the wall
fell in, making great crash and raising
cloud Of dust. Hundreds Of people ran
there immediately, from all parts Of tho
town, and more excited multitude We have
rarely seen. There vas great fear that the
rest Of the building would fall, and men
hurried to get out the carriages and horses,
which was done speedily. The horses were
brought out OF the front window OF the
basement ssory--shs area having been filed
in with brick, straw, &c., % that by . little
jumping the horses could get ont. None Of
them we're injured. The hsarss and their
best carriage we're badly mashed.
J. B. Graham and ssversl other workmeu
were 10 the upper story, laying the door to
make . drill room for Capt. Bowler's Com
psny. They we're seen emerging from ths
cellar window in great haste, but when
asked how they got out, couldn't say how
Several men were in the basement, and they
also left in great haste.
The building ~ it stands 10 thought to b.
quite unsafe, and liable TO be blown down By
strong wind.
Mckee Il Simpson have moved thei,
stock TO Gunn's stable on johnson street
and to Graham's on Third.

TOWN AND COUN TRY.

ApvERrIsISG.-The persons who really
understand the principles of advertising
are few. Mos: people fancy that it is on
ly necessary to advertise occasionally, for
getting that in the general competition
they will soon be forgotten for some new
advertiser. If advertising is any benefit,
it is as useful in hard times as in prosper
GUS ones. Nay more so. for it is at such
q period tina. dealer must make up, by
extra exertions, for the decline in his trade.
1! is penny wise and pound foolish !"
economy to stint your advertising in any
way.
The Pnor has now nearly double the
circulation of any English paper in this
county. 1t reaches the people iu every
corner Of Manitowoc, Calumet, Brown, and
Eewaunee counties-just the localities in
which our merchants should use extra ex>
ertions to procure additional trade. Its
circulation is increasing a. the rate of 10
to 20 per week, and is confined to families
of all nations and creeds. As this is the
proper season to advertise. we have thrown
out the above hints 10 those who wish to
make their business known to the commu-
nity.

MILITARY Misunderstanding is go
ing on slowly in this county, probably
from the fact that there are too many pots
boiling, and too many men ambitious OF
being Colonies and Captains.
In addition to Capt. 3oRcHERDr, Mr..
GEO. E. WALDO is recruiting for a Compa-
ny, with what prospects we have not
heard.
WV. w. BATES is also organizing a
Company of Fusileers for Chicago Regi-
ment.
Capt. Fred. BECKER is raising Compa-
ny for Col. SALoMos's 9th regiment. He
is the best military man in the county,
and must succeed in his undertaking.
We have heard some talk on the streets
Of movement being on foot for the Or
ganization of new Company to be COM
posed principally Of young Irishmen in
this and adjoining counties. There are
enough to make a good show, if the matt
ter was handled properly.
