OF different forms. The coincidence of this
mound, built by an unknown people, and at
some uncertain and remote age of the world,
should be found exactly adapted to supply
popular want of this later age, and be actually
put to use for track for the fair grounds, is
not little interesting and curious.
New BRIDGE.-The Commissioners, we
| learn. have come to the conclusion that a new
bridge for crossing the creek to South Ridge,
is inevitable, and are of. the opinion, that the
old is not tavorably located for the accommo-
dation of eastern travel, or for travellers from
the east seeking this village, and beside the
mile or so of extra travel required, the Osborn
Hill is so precipitous as to deter many from
attempting its descent. The spending of more
money Tor rebuilding the Old one, and the
keeping up this circuitous route, is of doubt
| ful policy, and common sense seems to dictate
shorter and better route, and that the outlay
and expenditure of such rebuilding should be
put, with some needed additional amount, to
the establishing of such route. In such
step, not only our village is deeply concerned,
but the citizens of ut least portion of east
Kingsville. They have for long time ex-
pressed Willingness to put their shoulders TO
the wheel to help forward an Improvement
and there is no reason to doubt their DISPOSE
| ton to prove that willingness i'm contributions
of money and labor to bring it about. In view
of such IN undertaking, ii has been proposed
to continue Spring street, from the heart of
the village, directly through 10 the Fargo
road, and spanning the creek from the rear OF
Fullcr's stable-removing that obstacle-with
b substantial iron bridge with high abutments,
so as to save too much filling up on either
side, and thus securing an easy and direct
transit TO and from South Ridge. The sug-
gestion meets with general favor, and the
people on the other side, we learn, are willing,
in the event of such a move, 10 turn out with
their teams, and contribute their help by max
ing the cut and doing the grading from the
eastern abutment to the level of the bank on
that side. The plan seems SO practicable,
and withall of so much public utility and i'm
portance, that there is a pretty general dispo-
sition to secure such cOnsummaton. Let
the commissioners, therefore, see by the earn
estncss of the people, that the plan is demand
ed, and there is little reason to fear of securing
their approval and decision The travel that
has of late been TUNED tow aids. Conneal t
from Ksngsyille, on account of the fine roads
between the two places may perhaps be turn
ed back again to its natural channel and to its
natural centre of trade and business. Let us
all go in heartily for the new bridge and the
new route.
TULLER HOUSE, GENEvA.-Business and
pleasure led us, the other day, TO take drive
o-Geneva-that pretty and ambitious little
burg, over which our friend SPENCER presides
with so much doughty consequence Ii being
| about noon, we allOwed--as is sometimes the
case with our cotemporary-our stomach to
become our monitor, and accordingly drop
ped in for stop with Tom FULLER, of the
Iaiier House This being our Introduction
and advent we confess that it was fortunate
step. for all the days enjoyments were made
happier by IT, FULLER is prince of a land
lord. Neatncss and comfort sit smiling ell
around. Good table, good friends, cheerful
aud happy landlord, who psychologists his
guest with his own humor, and not least-thc
cleanly, comfortable quarters, and attention
for the animal. Ii Jordan lay between Ton
TULLER's, OF Geneva, and JoHN TMoMPsoN's,
of Jefferson we should never have heard the
lament of its being hard road to travel
