THE MANIToWoo TRIBUNE.-The ed.
itors of this paper have received many
very fattering notices from their brethren
of the Wisconsin Press, but the extract
given below. coming as it does from a
political opponent. a lifelong printer and
an excellent editor, we need hardly state,
is gratifying in the extreme. 1t is from
the pen Of JOHN NJ READ publisher of
the ReaUaunee Enterprise. JOHN we
owe you one:
The Manitowoc Tribune has commenc
ed its sixteenth volume, and the editors
thereof embrace the occasion to indulge
in little excusable selfgratulatiun over
its prosperity. Possibly there are papers
among the country press which are entitled
to higher rank than the Tribune, but we
have not seen them. Well filled, well
printed, and outspoken in the advocacy
of the political views which it upholds. il
contains a-local department which all may
emulate but none may excel. Few papers
would have survived in the face of the
difficulties which the Tribune has had to
encounter, and its final success affords
another example of what energy, and
pluck, and hard work. will accomplish.
Messrs. Smith d Enert, its wide awake
editors, have succeeded because they
deserved success, and we are glad to note
their prosperity.

Peters, Musical Monthly is to hand.

Peters Musical Monthly is to hand,
and well sus.ains the proud title it bears
The Prince of Musical Monthlies,
for if there is any one periodical adapted
to suit the wants of all Lovers Of Music,
professional or amateur, il is certainly
this Magazine.
The May number comes to rs overflow
ing with Choice New Music. There are
four New Songs, by Hays, Thomas,
banks, and Eaton; three Piano Pieces;
and we notice new feature in the shape
of six pages of Quartet Music, which
viii prove valuable addition; also, a
dozen or more pages of Biographical
Sketches and Reviews of New Music,
that will be of interest to all Musicians.
Being largely engaged in the publication
of Sheet Music, Mr. Peters has always a
fresh stock from which to make his selec-
tions, and seems nothing 10th to draw
from his resources to any required extent
to make the Monthly what it should be.
Besides the Musical Sketches and Reviews
of New Music, each number contains no
less than thirty full-sized pages Of New
Music by the best writer's in the country.
When Music is furnished so cheap,
what Musician can afford to be without
such a publication? 81 worth of good
Music cannot be picked up every day for
so cents, and we feel justified in saying
that a subscription at SO will give as much
Music land good Music, too,l as you can
buy for $50.

MARROW ESCAPE. November a
melancholy accident occurred by which
one life was lost by the caving in of a
beer cellar, at the brewery of Mr.. Friecke
on the corner of Washington and Main
street. Last Saturday night, about
twelve o'c.ock another beer cellar attach
ed to the same brewery caved in, but for
tunately, there wereno lives lost this time.
1t seems that the cellar which caved in
last November acted to a certain extent
as support to the one which has now
fallen, there being only thin wall be-
tween the two. The first having caved
IN and no additional support was erected
for the remaining cellar, the walls were
OF course unable to stand the pressure.
Mr.. Hollender who is now working the
brewery, has over one hundred barrels of
beer in the cellar, which is buried under
mass of brick and mortar. It seems
that for some time previous to its caving
In the cellar has not been considered safe
to go into, but on Saturday evening a few
men risked their lives and worked for
several hours in getting out some of the
beer. They worked until after eleven

SUED FOR DAMAGES The Village
President at the last meeting Of the Board
received notice that suit for $1,000 dam
ages has been commenced against the
Village by man who tell down an I'M
guarded cellar way some time last fall.
AT previous meeting the complaint in
this suit handed in a claim against the
Village for $500 damages, but before
there was time to act on the claim he
increases it to $1,000 and commences suit.
About the justice Of this claim we know
nothing further than that the Village did
not prevent one of its citizens leaving a
dangerous cellar way, contrary to an ordi.
dlnance, unguarded for some length of
time. The man fell in and was badly
injured, but to how great an extent prob
ably jury will decide 1t is rumored
that this individual had been to a con-
vivial party, and possibly he was in con-
dition which made it unsafe for him to
be In the streets ct all, and if such was
the case, jury should render a light
verdict against the Village.

The new Artesian Well on the soutl

The new Artesian Well on the south
side sunk for Guttemann & Grabo, proves
perfect success. 1t is lis feet indepth
and flows t,celoe gallons a minute at a
height of four feet above the original
level, or two feet above the present level
Of the earth at that point. This demon
strates the feasibility of flowing wells in
this town, even if Mr.. Rahr's well had
not already established that fact Mr..
John Dobyns informs US that this last
well Is one OF the best he has dug in this
State, and he has been engaged in the
business tor many years. 1t is our i'm
preston that better thing could not be
done than to have at least two wells dug
at the public expense-one in each of the
parks. Then. in case of fire, we could
expect it might be subdued, and the
amount thus saved might be more than
twice what the wells would cost This is
matter of general Importance to every
property holder in the place. If it was
to benefit only a few we. would not advo-
cate it; fit was to be temporary bene-
fit we would not favor it, but it will be
both of general and permanent importance
and we hope to see the Village Board
take measures to have these wells sunk
at once. A man is now here with all the
requisite machinery and it will cost less
now probably than it ever will again.
Mr.. Dobyns will take the job at so much
per foot, OF he will work by the day, so
1t can be easily ascertained how much
the well will probably cost. 1t may be
said that property holders on or near the
river should not be taxed to furnish
water to residents on the hill. We differ.
The residents on the hill have been taxed
tor many years to sustain Fire DEPART
ment which in dry time or in large
FIRE could render them no assistance
whatever. 1t is no more than just that
some recompense should be rendered

7stract from a letter from Santa Crois.


Extract from 1etterfrom Santa Croic.
X We had wandered for
many hours through tangled forests Of
Tropical shrubs and trees, some of them
emitting a most delicious and lnvigora-
ting odor, when we suddenly came upon
large and well cultivated plantation, in
the center ofwhich were several build
lngs. Entering these we found them to
be the "press houses" stills, &C., where
the sugar cane is crushed for the manu-
facture of St. Crolx Rum. Over 100
Coolies were at work, aud the smell from
the termenting yats was very exhilara-
ting and pleasant. Wew shown through
the entire establishment, and learned
that all the Rum here produced was ship
ped to Alessrs. Z. II. Drake & Co, New
I ork, to be made into their celebrated
Plantation Bitters. The peculiar good
effects Of this Rum-which is the purest
and best in the world-are well known.
Not single case of Dyspepsia, Fever
and Ague, consumption, or any such dis.
ease can be found on this Island, Except
of invalids come here for their health, and
they are almost always cured) Com
bined with Calisaya Bark, Cascarilla,
and other important Ingredients, this
Rum becomes Plantation Bitters; and
surely no finer Tonic and general Family
Remedy was ever seen. The combina-
ton or these Bitters was first discovered
here many years ago, and all the Nativ-
es swear by Plantation Bitters, and say
their is nothing like it. Judging by
the robust health of the witnesses, [ am
certain their testimony is true.
