FINE PICTURES have too long q

FINE PIcrUEEs,-We have too long de-
layed noticing tl:o Inc pictures taken by
Kendall Bros, Of t,ils city They have
the apparatus for taking am kind of pic
lures, and we consider Il nc disparage-
ment to others to say they take better
pictures than can be taken at any other
gallerT in the West. Mr.. Richard Kendall
has been engaged for the past two years
by the Government, in the line of his pro-
fession, and is beyond doubt the best art
ist in these parts. If any one doubts, he
has only TO call and see his pictures to

FIRST PREMIUM-By reference to the
list which we publish elsewhere, it will be
seen that the Singer Sewing Machines
(both fam .ly and manufacturing) carry
off the first premiums from the State Fair
which closes to~day. II IS worthy of re
mark that these maclies are rarely seen
at fairs and the Singer Co have not enter
ed into the general scramble for premiums
which has characterized the past few
years. The agent in this city saw it.
however, to come out on this occasion, in
force; and Notwithstanding the competi~
ton was sharp-the " heeler & Wilson,
Grover and Baker, &c. &c, joining in the
contest-it was plain to be seen, when the
practical tests were applied that the
''plumes' must be handed over to the
SINGER machines

vitatons to the various commercial bodtes In the
West to visit Boston rs the guests Of the Board,
and from the 9Th to the Q b ofJune next has been
The time named for the representatives. Of the
various Western cities to meet there and partake
Of the hospitality rendered. The object Of this
meeting Of the merchants ofthe Wcst with those
Of the Exst, Is to have q thorough interchange or
views with regard to railroad transportation, and
the opening up Of new routes from the West
to New England. 60 as to facilitate and pro-
mote commercial relations and develop ths
RESOURCES Of the country. It IL expected
that delegations vii! be sent from st. Louis, Chi
cago, Milwaukee, Detroit, Cincinnati, and In fact
from every commercial city In the West. Ar.
ragemtnts have been made by the Boston Board
Of Trade to entertain their Western guests in 4
most Aunptuous manner. There will be an ex.
cursion down the Boston HEbor, q trip to Law
renee, Lowell, and other New England manufac.
turing paonts; vist to the public institutions Of
the CITY. and grand hanquct In old Faneull Hall.
As the lime Ia not fur Distant we trust the
Chicsgo Board Of Trade will make arrangements
at an early day to send good delexatton-one
that Will fatf]y and truly represent Northwestern
Interests. These commercial gatherings are we'll
calculated to promote trade and commerce, and
the matter should ha carefully considered, Wo
must send Representative men, and not those
OILY Who are willing to 60 because they will have
"a good tlme,'' and because they have nothing
else TO do. -.

Under these circumstances 1t Is expected that
four-per.cent lon may be placed at about eighty
per cent, which point 1t ts expected the i've
twentirs will exceed. Pr contra, it ia stated by
