instead of above the real merits of
the town and county. Here is what
the Wisconsin's correspondent says:
CREsCO.
[ hal mu;h curiosity to visit
'Creseo, the town that grew up like
mushro in last fall, from one log
hut to hundred and fifty buildings
ana few months, while the railroad
terminus was there. The fame of
this town had even gone across the
Atlantic, and has excited the won
der Of a leading newspaper in the
city of London, 1t passed all their
conceptions, how substantial, fine
docking town Of a hundred and fifty
buildings could rise up from the ma
ked, wild prairie, in the space of
fevr months, fully organized in every
department of common business and
trade. "Such things" the paper
said, couldn't happen in the old
country
Since the railroad has passed on,
i had expected to find a thinncd-out
AMI billious-looking town here
The fact is quite otherwise. C.cs-
co, after it got a good start, struck
its natural gait, and is improving
right along. 1t is now one of the
best shipping and trading points on
the road. Everybody in Crcsco has
faith in Cresco, everybody takes
pride In Cresco, everybody expects
to live to see Cresco a handsome
flourishing city of six churches and
six thousand people. Here hoping
they all will.
In 1855 Mr.. Augustus Beadle,
AN educated and most worthy gentle
man, from Duchess county, New
York. took look about the country
here, and bought up some 1900
acres ofland, among the rest, the
Shook farm, lying right on the path
of the railroad. In May, 1866, he
laid in with W. b. Strong and Is.
II. Edgerton, two railroad men,
who fixed the station at this point,
and presently the town of Cresco
was ushered into existence.

PROGRESS OF STEAM AND IELEGRAPHIC

L
COMMUNICATION. oN.-Let us glance at what is
Going on. Within few years numerous lines
of splendid steamships have been established
between this port and Europe. The Atlantic
has become great ocean terry, across which
crowds of people pass daily with as little diff
Guilty OF apprehension as in sailing up the Hud-
son to Albany few years ago. There are lines
to England, France, and Germany, and in con-
pection with these to all parts Of Europe. The
time across the Atlantic is now only niue or
fen days. Soon there will be direct lines to
Italy, Spain, the Baltic and other parts OF the
European Continent. A few months since a
line was established across the Pacific to Japan
and China from San Francisco. A splendid
line is 10 successful operation from Australia to
the American Continent OF Panama, with which
those on the Pacific to California and the South
American republics connect, as we'll as those to
the West Indies and this country by The Car
ribean See and Cult OF Mexico Other lines
are projected, among which may be mentioned
one from France to Panama, connecting the
Continents, and making this Continent the cen
ire Of all. We are soon to have line direct
from New York 10 Venezuela, By the way of
the West Indies, in addition to those to Brazil
spd the other countries of South America on
the Atlantic side. But the progress Of. tele
graphic operations is still more surprising
The Atlantic cable has made the European ma
tions our near neighbors. A day or two ago one
was laid connecting Cuba with the u. S. In
few years all parts OF the West Indies and
South and Central America will he in telegraph
ic communication with US. Shortly we shall
have cables across the Pacific to Japan and
China, in connection with others to India and
Australia. We believe We may safely say that
within ten years every civilized and populous
portion Of the globe will be in speaking dis
tance of each other through the magnetic wire;
that, in fact, the globe will be covered by a
network of magnetic telegraphs.
= Before that time We shall have certainly one
railroad across the Continent connecting San
Francisco with New York, and probably seve-
raj. The news, trade and travel from Europe
70 the rich and populous countries of Asia will
come this way. Looking at the important in
yentions made daily in steam lo,omotion, both
by sea and land, we shonld not be surprised if,
within ten years, people would be able to travel
from New York to San Francisco in two days,
and from Europe to China, BY the way Of
America, in twenty-five or twenty-three days
In fact, it is possible that the circuit of the
globe may be travelled in forty days. With all
this astounding progress we shall reap the
greatest advantage, because OF our central
geographical position and because we have the
boundless and varied resources that are needle d
by and that enter into the commerce OF all
nations.-Neao York Herald
