EMINENT WOMEN OF THE Ace
One Of the most valuable and meritorious
books of the day is the one bearing the
above title, and our citizens now have
an opportunity of obtaining it through the
agent who is in the city canvasSing for sub
scribers. 1t contains nearly fifty biographi-
cal sketches of the most distinguished wo-
men now living, including such persons as the
Empress Eugenia, Queen Victoria, Floren ce
Nightingale, Harriet Hosmer, E. c. Stanton,
Anna Dickinson, Ristori and others, taken
from every walk of life and grade of society
| These sketches are written by our best au :
| tbors, such names as Parton, Greeley Tilton,
and Il. B. Stowe appearing in the list, and
each author has doubtless given a specimen
of hiS best style, knowing that it must stand
side by side and be compared critically with
SO many others. Fourteen fine steel engra-
wings illustrate the work and add greatly to
It's value. The book contains $50 pages,
is handsomely and durably bound, and is Of
tered at a very reasonable prica, considering
| that it is a standard work of such rare merit
and value. We hope the agent will meet
good success in introducing this book in our
city, as 1t Is desirable that persons having
first class books for sale should not pet in
the habit of giving our city the go-by
trough fear OF lack of patronage.

EVANSVILLE, July ed, 1863.
Eds. Republican: TO write or not TO write,
that the question; whether 'tis better to
sit in "happy Incidence" or redeem half

While debating. this subject in my own
mind. of course | have thought of Water
town, and must confess, more agreeaby
than ever before Poetry and WATERFOWL
have hitherto been, in my Imagination, as
remote from each other as the antipodes,
but actual observation has compelled me to
acknowledge myself mis- taken. What could
be more charming, more suggestive of We
nice, than that little ice cream restaurant,
"PETERs,'' you call it, with the river be-
meath, beside and beyond it, and that never
ceasing flow and gurgle of water from some
source not discernible in the darkness. l
leaned over the balcony and listened, al
most expecting to hear the dip of oars, to
see the outline of gondola shooting from
under the bridge, and hear the song of the
fair Signorina behind the silken curta ms.
At the Linden Ho lse there is a very po-
lite Clerk, and politeness is a commodity
one never wearies of unless it be affectation
the tables were loaded with delicacies, and
substantials too for that matter but can
not refrain from expressing my surprise
that hotel, so well ordered in every other
respect should afford so uninviting paror
Really, had my friend and myself been
obliged to pass the entire evening by our
selves in that cherries room we must have
been dull indeed. Ladies, you know, are
not sufficiently entertaining to each other
to allow surroundings to pass unnoticed,
but as we were fortunately favored with
other company, we have no cause to regret
our detention in Waterfowl.

enjoyable from its very weirdness. Start

hours through alternate moonlight and

| son ana Fort Atkinson, as we halted mo-
ment at either place, arriving here amid the

| it would seem, impatient cham ping of our
| iron horse, that only stayed for us to alight
! The oficiousn .ss of ON nibus drivers, fash
ing sof lanterns and tramping of many feet
all of which seems commonplace by day
light, but this strange hour gave it the
charm Of novelty 40 sunny day could i'm
part.
A young brood of swallows in the chin
ney welcomed me - my room that night
and even now as bid you adieu, their soft
quaverng chirrup blends with the siz
o'clock bells distinct, amid all the din, like
the tie OF leaves when one would imag
inc it drowned by the roar oframpant winds
Soft sounds and evening sunlight are

A NEW NAME.-The Waupun LeaQ

A New NAME.-The Waupun Lead
er tells the following good one on Berlin
At the saloon of certain hotel, in that
city, not long since, man came in, called
for drink of bourbon, swallowed his benzine
and turned to go out. Just at this moment,
from some cause he fell fainting to the floor.
He was properly cared for and taken home.
During all this time a half drunken individ-
ual was sitting in the saloon watching the
course of events. Too laborious watching
made him thirsty, and he tackled up to the bar
and demanded something for the benefit of
his thirsty disposition. The bartender hand
ed out the same bottle from which the pre-
vious customer had poured his drink
the thirsty customer had been watching that
bottle, among other things "No you don't, ;,
said he, "none of your (hic) kill at the
counter, (hic) for me. Give me some thatl
let me get off at (hic) least forty rods"
It is pity that the vile poison which is
sold elsewhre is not as honest as thai Berlin
stuff, for while it all "kills at the counter just
as surely as the latter, it deceives its victims
with the belief that they are getting away
alive.

a DISCREPANCY.--Two weeks since,
the Democrat reporter gave an account of a
very pleasant picnic which the school chill
dren enjoyed at Richards grove on Thursday
of that week, but which every one else failed
to see on account of an all-day rain that
prevented the projected picnic from coming
off. Last week the Democrat describes the
affair more accurately as taking place on
Friday. We would suggest to our neighbor
that while it may be safe in ordinary seasons,
with the help of the moon and aim anacs, to
narrate events which depend upon the
weather two or three days in advance of
their occurrence, this season, it is, to say the
least, very imprudent to do SO.

a PLEAsANT TRP.-Business call
ed Us to Lake Mills last Saturday, and q
drive Of two hours and half over fair roads
and bet ween fields teeming with the prom
ise of rich md abundant harvest brought
rs to our destination The day was quite
warm, but a lively breeze tempered The heat
and made the ride exceedingly pleasant.
Along the whole route our attention was
directed to the appearance of the crops, and
we were MUCK pleased 70 notice the rapid
improvement which had taken place in
their condition during the late favorable
weather. Wheat seemed to be maturing
rapidly and promised soon to be out of dan
ger rye and barley were ready for the
harvest in most cases, but we noticed that the
fai mers generally were busy haying as they
have been favored with but little weather
suitable for that purpose, and accordingly are
much behind in securing their hay. Corn has
improved remarkably within week and is
rapidly making up for lost time. We saw
PASSS0
and it occurred to US that with the presen
prospect of the high price of corn in the
fall, farmers might perhaps devote their labor
as proftablyto fields:which are not hopelessIy
behind, as in any other direction. Oats
seemed to be very heavy and promise well
potatoes look finely, and we are inclined to
believe that the potato bug will prove bug
bear this year we sincerely hope so, as we
can much better afford to be scared than
hurt by him. The. past week has done good
work for the farmers in this section, and
with another like it we should see them
gathering harvest not extraordinary in
yield perhaps but far better than would have
seemed possible few days since.
Ten miles out is the village of Milford,
historic in the annals of the County and
State and a grist and saw III Il situated
on an excellent water power, two or
three stores, sundry elegant residences,
barge which sails on frequent trips to
Hubbleton, laden with -four one way and
with miscellaneous freight the other, show
that the place has something more substan-
tial whereof to boast than its.ancient renown.
Three miles farther and we come to Lake
Mills famed for its fine location, its beautiful
surroundings, its good order, its public
spirit and enterprise, its schools, its church
es and it's ulwavering Republican maj critics.
A square meal at the Newton House in
sured our good humor for the day, and troll
ing through the pleasant streets of the place
and chat ting with It's genial and hospitable
people We felt more convinced at every
turn. that none of the many good things we
have heard said of the town were misapplied.
A very handsome church-Metho lis t--and
number of private dwellings, several Of
which would do credit to any city in the
State, were among the numerous improve
ments which we observed in partial sur
vey of the village AS the day waned we
turned our faces toward home, and being
obliged to return by the way of Milford we
were prevented from taking the Aztaan and
Johnson's Creek route as had been Our pur-
pose in the morning.
