DESTRUCTIVE FIRE On Friday last, ,.he
large and commodious residence of LEWIS
SHERMAN, Esq. on the south side of the
river, was burned to the ground, together
with nearly all of its contents. The day
was very cold which fact prevented our
Gremen and their machinery from perform
ing that saving labor which otherwise they
would have been glad to have done. The
fire is supposed TO have taken from de-
feet in one of the chimneys: and so rapidly
did the flames spread that tie inmates
barely escapcd-Mrs. S. heroicalIy jumps
ing from one Of the second story windows.
The loss TO Mr.. SHERMAN on house and
furniture is about $4,000, and we regret to
state that there was no insurance to protect
him.

that the Duplex Wagon, patented by W.

This wagon is truly novelty, and cannot
fail to be appreciated, combining as it truly

ones The tongue does not slam the team

decidedly less annoying both on the road
and farm than any other wagon. All III
this vicinity who contemplate purchasing a
wagon will find i. decidedly to their advan-

maker, T. G. SoRGE, who has purchased
the right for the town of Manitowoc, and
will enter at once upon their Manufacture.
You will find him attentive to business aud

material and employs the most experienced
woramen, and doubtless will reap rich

A HAZARDOUS TRIP The Milwaukee
Wisconsin, OF the Sd inst, contains the fol-
lowing mention of cold trip recently
made by the schooner Emma, of Two
Eivers
"a few days ago the Emma run into
Grand Haven. 4 suit there against Capt.
Anderson caused the seizure of the Emma
by the sheriff, aud she was stripped OF I'll
canvas except the mainsail, her anchors
and ca 5les being also taken. When the
sheriff had completed the work, Capt.
Anderson asked him why be left the main
SAIL and remarked, Il pay run her out.
The sheriff replied that if he could run her
out with that be might do SO and welcome.
At this time the captain bad no idea OF at
tempting the feat, but upon conversation
with his attorney, and it being shown that
the Emma belonged to his brother-ln law,
Mr.. Fobes, a meu. Der of the Legislature
from Manitowoc county, the captain was
advised to take her out. About O'Clock
at night Capt, Anderson weat on board the
vessel, and with the assistance OF sailor
he had shipped, unbent the malnsall, bent
1t as a ioresall, and in the midst OF one OF
the heaviest and coolest snow storms OF the
So eaSon, unmoored and sailed out OF the
river.
The trip was probably one of the most
rerilous eyer attempted on the lakes.
When outside Capt Anderson sailor gave
out and could 20 nothing, and the weather
was so severe that the master was N great
danger of perishlug. The wind was favor
able although strong, and he headed the
Emma for this pors. Finding that he would
perish unless something was done, Capt:
A .o1 hn mo nd
had him build fire in the cabin. BY
keeping portion of hi, body through tho
cabin window aud changing hands on the
tliler, little more comfort was secured,
and the Emma reached Milwaukee, the
captain nearly frozen, but having performs
ed one of the most wonderful trips Oh rec
ord, all things considered.
His troubles were not ended, Tor on his
arrival dispatch was sent to Sheriff
Brunst, requesting the arrest Of Captain
Anderson, and he was taken in charge.
Nobody appearing against him, he was dis
charged. On Monday, Deputy Sheriff ii.
ID. " eatherwax, of Grand Haven, arrived
here to arrest the captain. He had no re-
QUESTION, aud Captain Anderson naturally
declined going He had telegraphed to
the owner OF the vessel, and that gentleman
caue IN from Madison, aud at once had
the Michigan sheriff arrested for unlawful
ly OBTAINING his property. The sheriff was
a stranger here, was new in the business,
and did not know what else to do, so he
went quietly to jall, where he has been un-
iii to day. Meanwhile the parties at Grand
Haven learning the result, telegraphed
here, to house, to sign the sheriff bail
bond, and have him released This was
being done to>day, aud we suppose before
this item is read the Michigan sheriff will
be out OF durance vile. and again after the
captain,
The Emma left Milwaukee on the night
of the 7th inst, and arrived at this port on
the Sth, with new outfit Of sailing gear.

Probably twO-thirds of the adult population
of the United States indulge, more or less, in
bar.room stimulants Hot alcoholic beverages
are habitually imbibed by thousand of UeO-
pie in the winter months ito keep out the cold.
The alcoholic material of all these drinks is more
or less poisonous, and is rendered all the more
deleterious in consequence of being taken EARN.
Avoid these dangerous excitants. Shun, as
YOU would shun the deadliest drug, all tdrcr1

gest the liver disturb the natural action of the
kidneys, irritate the bowels, shatter the nerves
and impair the reason.
The operation of HOSTETTER'S STOMACH

! feeble, they awaken the dormant energies of the
stomach, and promote the work of assimilation
| If the liver is sluggish and torpid, they -egen
erate it. If the kidneys fail 20 perform theil
functions properly, they are regulated without
being irritatCd. II the bowels are constipated
the peristalliC action is moderately increased
and the discharges become natural and regular
