FINE CHANCE TO GET A HOME
The sale of real estate, by Messrs
Peidelbaeh & Elsas. affords an ex-
cellent opportunity to those wishing
to invest for speculation, as we'll as
those desiring to buy homes. The
Longworth Tract being located within
the city limits, residents therein have
all the advantages Of city life, while
at present it is essentially in the
country, condition that at the pres
ent rate of improvement can not last
long, the tide of improvement setting
very decidedly in that direction.
At least a hundred houses will be
erected on the Longworth Tract this
Summer, nearly that number being
already contracted for.
The late decision of the Supreme
Court in the annexation case has con-
frmed the act Of the Council extend
ing the jurisdiction of the city over
this Tract, giving the advantage Of
the city improvements in drainage
and gas lights as fast as the residents
thereon desire.
The street railroad, which now ap-
proaches to within couple of squares,
will shortly be extended so as to rem
der all parts of the Tract approach
able by that means.
Persons intending to bid. can have
an opportunity of looking over the
ground tomorrow.
For terms, see the advertisement in
this paper.
The location is the most desirable,
being high and naturally well drained
and must shortly be the best settled
part of town.

CUTTING AFFRAY.--Two negro

groes resisted, but were finally over
powered.

THE CARMI RAILRoAD.-Mr. Rob-
ert A. Hill returned to the city on
Saturday evening. having made the
trip with Mr.. CLARK and bis survey
ing corps of twelve persons. through
to McLeansboro.
Mr.. Hill is considerably Drowned
by the exposure on his trip, the incl
dents of which we'll illustrate the me-
cessity for a Railroad through that
country. At one place they had to
go four miles for horse feed, and pay
from twenty to twenty-five cents per
pound for description Of pork which
the soldiers were accustomed to call
by highly descriptive. but not over
euphonious name. This was in Ham
ilton County, illinois, where the
nearest market is about sixty-fiVe
miles away, aud the cost of getting
produce to market is equal to about
two thirds of its entire value.
On this account the farmers are ac.
customed to raise only such stock as
can go to market of itself. and grain
and fodder enough to sustain them
selves and the stock.
The only opposition the party en-
countered. was in Vanderburg Coun-
ty, where one woman followed the sur
veyors, Indignantly pulling up their
stakes as fast as driven.

MULLIaAN AaAIN.-Jim. was ar
rested last night while on the war

after he was locked up, he made
things howl. furnishing music for the
Bunkum Museum. Mr. Mulligan
performed what certain Democratic
orator promised to do, but failed to
perform, viz: fly around and split his
shirt. In his contest with the consti-
tuted authorities, he tore that neces-
sary article to shreds.

THE LOVE OF THE BEAUTIFUL.

What arc half the crimes in the
world committed for? What brings
into action the best yirtues?. The de.
sire of possessing. Of possessing
what ?-not mere money, but every
species of the beautiful which money
can purchase. A man. lies hid in a
lietle dirty, smoky room for twenty
years of his life, and sums uplas many
column of figures as would. reach
round half the earth; if, they were
laid at length; he gets rich; what
does he do with his riches !? He buys
large, well-proportioned house in
the arrangement of his furniture he
gratifies himself with all, the beauties
of variety and association, in his
grounds; the cup out of which he
drinks his tea is adorned with beauti-
full figures ; the chair in which he sits
is covered with smooth, shining leath-
er; his tablecloth is of the most
beautiful damask; mirrors reflect the
light from every quarter OF the room
pictures of the best masters feed his
eyes with all the beauties of imitation.
A million of human, creatures are EN-
ployed, in this country in ministering
to this feeling of the beautiful. 1t is
only barbariousa ignorant people
that can ever be occupied by the neces-
saries of life alone. Ito cat, and to
drink and to be warm, were the only
passions of our minds, we should all
be what the lowest of us are osthis
day. The love of the beautiful calls
man to fresh eXertions, and awakens
him to more noble life and the gle-
ay of tits, that as painters initiate and
poets sing and statuaries carve, and
architects rear up the gorgeous tro-
plies of their skill--as everything be-
comes beautiful, and orderly, and
magnifcent--the activity of the mind
rises TO still greater and better OBJ
jects.-REv. SIDNEY SMITH, eI s.l

4s A Mr.. ROSE, of Philadelphia, is
the owner of u four-year old horse
that is only twenty-seten inches high
and weighs but LBS pounds. lie is a
perfect horse in every respect, brown
i'll color, with long tail. Mr.. Rose
lately sent to New York for Mr..
Hule to shoe the horse, the latter gem
tleman taking the horse on his lap TO
perform the operation. Mr.. Hule
weighs 270 pounds--just twice the
weight of the horse. This horse is
not Shetland, nor does he belong to
any other race of ponies. He is an
American horse, his sire and dam be-
ing both over fifteen hands high, and
well formed. The horse is probably
the smallest in the world. He is real
