A Card.
10 the Harelling Public We would
respectfully call your attention to the fact
that there is a regular, reliable and as res
ponsible an opposition as the regular rail-
road line of Bisbee,- across the river at the
terminus Of the NJ. & p. du c. II. r., for
the transfer Of passengers, baggage, &c.,
across the river during the close of navisa-
ton. This company, also, has all ncces-
sary facilities for the transfer of freight, to
which they give special attention. Pat
ronize boats and sleighs painted blue and
marked Austin & Co.'S opposition, unless
Bisbee & Co.'s agent on the cars will give
you ticket to ride free across the river in
their line, which they threaten to do in
case of any opposition, and which they say
they can afford as the railroad company
give them % cents for each and every pas
senger they convey in addition to what
they can get from the passengers them
selves. The established fare of the oppo-
sition will be only 25 cents with ordinary
baggage. Therefore let every one that is
going to pay his fare, ride with and help
support the opposition. Don't be hum
bugged into the idea that the railroad COM
pany are responsible for your life or prop
erty while crossing the river, for they are
not, or they would ticket you themselves
betweeen McGregor and Prairie du CHEN,
the same as between other stations. Now
as we have horror of fishing up and pay
ing for drowned people, we have provided
ourselves with good boats and careful
hands sufficient to prevent such catastro-
phies. 5o9w4 w. G. AUSTIN & Co.

SURF.

Splcndors of morning the bilow crests brighten,
Lightning and luring them on to the land;
Far away waves where the wan vessels whiten,
Blue rollers breaking in surf where stand,
Curved like the necks Of a legion of horses,
Zach with his froth-gilded name flowing free,
Hitler they speed in perpetual courses,
Bearing thy riches, Oh, beautiful seal
Strong with the striving of yesterdays surges,
Lashed by the wanton winds leagues from the
shore,
Each, driven fast by its follower. urges
Fearlessly those that are fleeting before. -..
How they leap over the ridges walk on
flinging us gifts from the depths of the sea-
Silvery fish for the foam-haunting falcon.
Paln-weed and pearls for my darling and me!
Light falls her foot where the rift follows after,
Finer her hair than your feathery spray.
Sweeter her voice than your silvery laughter
Hist! ye wild couriers, list to my lay!
Deep in the chambers of grottoes auroral
Morn 1aves her jewels and bends her red knee:
Thence, TO my dear one your amber and coral
Bring for her dowry, oh, beautiful seal

This city is at present all on skates, the
younger portion of the population at least,
and as they are all young, my statement is
no cxaggeration. The greatest excitement
for the past few weeks has been the trium-
phant completion of the Lake Tunnel,
through which, Mt no distant day, water as
pure as that which leaps from your hill
side springs, will be furnished to the resi-
dents of this great metropolis. And what
can so advance the interests, or contribute
to the health and comfort of great commu-
mites, either in town or country, as pure
water from the bountiful urn of Nature.
But l shall weary you and your readers,
and close by making the apology due you
and them for this epistle send you. l
shall deem myself fortunate perhaps, as
your readers, if you consgn this communi-
cation to the oblivion Of your editorial
waste basket, instead of sending it into the
world through your columns.
Your old friend, G. II. 3.

In long general order just issued by
the war department, giving the names Of
all field officers of the new regiments of
the regular army, it appears that white
and black soldiers are assigned to sepa-
rate regiments, the blacks to be command
ed by white officers. Here is new and
magnificent opportunity for the display Of
radical indignation. But unfortunately
these distictinctions of color are based on
the authority of congress itself, the prin-
ciple Of total equality being designed as
special blessing for the southern states.

We are again supplied with Kier's Car

Kerosene Oil after it's discovery in Penn

reputation unequalled. His oil is quoted
in the Chicago Joarna1 Of Commerce as
l20 and l3O, fire test (being 20 degrees
higher test than the best Cleveland OILY
and worth more in market than any other
oil. In Offering it to the public we feel as
sured that all who use it will be satisfied
that it is the cheapest on account of its du-
rability, and the best in consequence Of its
safety. ScoTr, GOULD { 60.

determined to bring all law, order, and

blase a buffoon. The following paragraphs
