Railroad Prospects.

Hon Geo Reed, President Of the
Portage, Winnebago and Superior r. r.
Co., visited Wausau on Monday last to
examine its surroundings. with view OF
ascertaining our advantages, resources,
population, business, &C.. and the facil-
tiles afforded for an early construction OF
the above road He remained with US
two days, leaving on "Wednesday. He
expresses himself highly pleased with
our place and the surrounding country.
and regards it as one Of the important
points, whose commercial and manufac-
turing business will become tributary to
this Land Grant Road. y
We regard this proposed road as'being
OF the greatest Importance to the interests
State, and one the most likely to be com
pletcd at an early day. This line ofroad
will become the base line Of road tor the
north half Of our State, and an extension
of the most direct through line between
the East and the great Northwest through
Canada & MICHIGAN via Pere Marquette
and Manitowoc to St. Paul, and to Su
perior City, there connecting with the
Northern Pacific road. Roads from Nil
waukee, Chicago, and other points South
extending through our State north, viii
find in this road from Portage 10 Lake
Superior the shortest aud most direct
route TO make their connections with the
Northern Pacific The Survey Of this
ioad-which is now rapidly progressing
and will in short time be Completed
shows a most feasible route for railroad
with low and easy grading, and passing
through country rich in agricultural,
mineral and manufacturing wealth, ard
when the road is constructed, and there
is no doubt that it will be at an early
day, it will be one Of the best paying
roads il the west. As this company is
composed of capitalists, and the Presi-
dent thereof an active, energetic and
practical business man, we anticipate the
day is fast approaching and not far dis
tant-when the snort" of the iron horse
will be heard and long train of cars
seen rushing into Wausau. So may it

An OLD RESIDENT OF SHEBoYGAN
HEARD From We find the following
in the Chicago Religio- Philosophical
journal of last week, and give it as an
item that may interest some Of our read
ers. The description is very good one
and will be recognized by those who knew
the subject; and the facts stated, so far
as we remember them, are correct. The
incident is related by Mr.. Z. Y. Wilson,
as having been given by him as test,
during a spiritualistic lecture at Madison
on The Goth of June last:
There is here spirit, a lawyer, lived
in this city several years ago. and says he
died in the insane asylum five years ago
We described him as spare man, well
built, pale, very sallow, about five feet
ten inches in hight, brown hair, oval
features, little dandyfed, wearing a
dress coat, plug hat, carries a small cane,
and otherwise minutely describing him
We then pointed out several gentlemen,
that he identified There was some
quibbling over the identity, when the
spirit said Il was compelled to leave
my house in Sheboygan, Wis, some
years before my death. came here. was
here in 1859, GO and 81 !; returned to
Sheboygan, became insane, was sent to
the Lunatic Asylum and died there and
many exclaimed, 1T is Mr. Hitler ''One
man said, Il knew him WE'LL and it is as
accurate as | could describe him.

4. III. Thomson for Governor.

The Richmond Sentinel, edited by the
venerable Father Walworth, thus gives
its opinion of the gubernatorial question ::
IF the Convention shall say to Gen
Fairchild well done good and faithful
servant, rest a while till we call for you y
it is all right; and if they should, of
course Mr. Thomson, Of GAINESVILLE, comes
next with clear record, and we have
little doubt that he will be the successful
candidate.
While we esteem, Others who have
been named, hoping not to intrudc upon
the good opinions of others, we venture
to name our preference, which Is, for
Governor, a. NJ Thomson, Of Janesvile
For Lieutenant Governor, David Atwood,
of Madison-we believe that the ticket
thus headed would be acceptable to the
Republican party, and heartily sustain
ed throughout the State Amen so

The Trouble,

The Oshkosh Times, one of the ablesr
Democratic papers in this District, ex
plains why democracy does not flourish.
We quote:
The trouble with the Democratic
party is, that ii has permitted itself to be
narrowed down to the dry bones Of q
skeleton organization, and there it will
remain until live men take the lead and
breathe into it a progressive action that
will make It's future worthy Of It's past
history. We are doing nothing, and can
DO nothing, because we have men at the
head of the party who are afraid to act
themselves, and refuse to give others au
opportunity of acting. Well, the end
viii come sometime There Will be
either a resurrection oran eternal sleep.
The men who control the skeleton or
ganization" have IN their composition so
much OF the. bulldog hang-on principle
that they viii not be likely to step aside
for ADLER and more honest men, therefore
according to the Times version, we may
naturally look out for the ''eternal
sleep ere long. SO mote it be. +"

1t is said that Calisaya Bark has a
peculiar effect upon the liver, and guards
the system against diseases by exposure
and irregular diet 1t is conceded that
the great success Of the wonderful Plan
tation Bitters, which, previous to our
late unhappy difficulties, was found in
most southern homes, was owing to the
extract of Calisaya Bark which contained
as one of the principal ingredients. In
confirmation of this we have heard one
Of our distinguished Physicians remark,
that whenever he felt unwcll from or
dinary dietetic or atmospheric causes, he
invariably relieved himself by Plantation
Bittcrs. We speak advisedly when we
say that we know it to be the best and
most popular medicine in the world.

To PROTECT GRAIN FROM RATS. An
individual of much practical experience
says that green elder, deposited in and
about mows of hay or grain, will prove
efectual preventive against the depre-
dation of mice and rats. These animals
are frequently very destructive in their
ravages, and, it remedy so simple and
easy Of attainment be efiicacious, IL de-
serves to be known and remembered by
all. We have long known that the
stalks of the common mullen viii drive
rats from their haunts.

WORDS OF CoUNsEL.-Tn his address
to Odd Fellow Lodges, Grand Master
Ryan has the following
Many Lodges err in putting down their
adnissIoa fees TO the lowest limit author
ized by the constitution. No Subordi-
nate Lodge should charge less than so
initian fee, and SO each for the five de-
grees. On the other hand it is not wise
to place the dues much higher than the
minimum, say 81 per term. Every lodge
should have an available fund on hand
invested in real estate or productive Sc
curity, calculating on the receipt for dues
to pay incidental expenses and ordinary
demands for relief. This fund cannot
be readily obtained except by placing the
admission and advancement fees at high
er fees than are usually charged by coan-
try Lodges. We earnestly recommend
to all country Lodges 10 raise their
prices as above indicated and that
city Lodges make them still higher.
