A VESSEL IN DISTRESS. number Of
fisherman report that yesterday they
saw, caught in the ice water-logged, a
schooner Of some forty tons. She lay off
about five miles from port, and in such a
condition that no one could get to her,
or discover any signs Of life about her.
Yesterday the ice from the lake set into
the bay, filing it up, and the small yes
sci either came over in the ice from the
eastern shore or was Water-logged in try
ing to get to the harbor, This morning
the vessel had disappeared, and it is be-
lieved to have gone down. 1t is not
supposed by the fisherman that there
was any person on board the vessel.

Our PRosPEcTs.-Never b. fore have
the prospects for our young city been SO
satisfactory as at present! And why
shouldn't they be brilliant? We have
already one of the very best harbors on
the shore; one of the longest, broadcast
and deepest rivers that empties its flood
of waters into Lake Michigan; as rich a
section of farming country as there is in
the State; community of liberal, wide
awake citizens, and an intelligent county
population, and the prospects of speedy
railroad connection with Milwaukee on
the south, Green Bay and the immense
tract of country north and northwest Of
us, and Appleton and the Great West
back of us, with line Of iron steamers
running across the Lake, all centering
in Manitowoc county.-we surely have
cause to predict brilliant future for our
city. That the opening of any one Of
our railroads will bring 10 food of i'm
migration that will soon develop the in
terests of our county, is conclusive, and
we see no reason why our most san
guine anticipations shall not be realized.

those published in this issue from the
NJ N. & G.. 3. Z. r. Co.. and the A. &
n. L. r. r. Co. In view of the great
