THE Board of Aldermen having ap-
pointed SEXTON, we hope that they
will also see to it, that the ordinance,
regulating, burials, the sale of lots in
the Cemetery etc.. will be strictly adj
hered to, and necessary, duly enforced, as
that branch of our administration has
heretofore been wofully neglected. There
are instances when lots have been sold
twice, hundreds of lots are occupied
without having been paid for. The lists
for burials have never been properly
kept, if at all. and never could be OBJ
tanned for publication.
IF the Committee on Public improve
merits viii examine into these matters,
they will confer great favor to many of
our citizens who have their dear ones
hid away there. and who will themselves
ioin sooner or later those who have
cone before them.

DEAR MOTHER -
have just been wishing you
could have been down here on this Sun
day in our beautiful southland. It is a
lovely day. just warm enough for com
fort, with bright SIN overhead, and
the birds singing in the fruit trees in the
garden. The vegetation is much in adj
vance of Wisconsin. We had ripe straw
berries yesterday, and there were some
ripe On the 18th. They grow in the
open air, too. The next thing on the
docket is green peas and potatoes Our
garden is getting along finely, and ex-
pect to raise vegetables enough to do US
all for next winter and spring. We all
work in it, and that, besides cutting all
our wood before breakfast in the morn
ing keeps me pretty busy all the time,
though | don't have to work a great
deal in the Office. Yesterday man
gave me handsome bouquet of flowers,
among which was large handsome
tulip, sBow balls, three kinds ofroSes etc.
| wish | could send them all up to YOU
We have ro flower galden, as the fruit
trees are so thick 10 the yard that flow
ers would get no sunshine. The peach
es on the trees are nearly as large as dove
eggs, aud the plums are also quite large.
Pears are the slowest growing fruit we
have, but shall have lots of them in the
proper season. There is not a finer
frurt country in the world than this part
of Tennessee. and it needs no care at AL
It grows itself.
Write to me soon, Our health is
good. hoping yours VIII always remain
SO. Nate joins me IN sending much
love to all
Your afectiopate son.

THE National Police Gazette made its
appearance with an entirely new heading
which is really handsome, significantly
graphic. The leading aim of the Ma

crime-to warn evil-doers, if possible,
Of the consequences. which result from
walking in the devious ways of sin, that
must ultimately lead them to the very
verge of moral death.

men at work, and before our next issue
the engineering party will be surveying
the route to Grand Chute Island, when
the question Of the best point to cross

attention.
IF 1T chooses, the Stevens Point can Sc.
cure favorable terms for an outlet to
Lake Michigan over the Appleton and
| New London Railway on nc
terms affecting the extension of the Road
from Appleton to New London and Wau-
sau. But if that corporation persists in
its war against the vested right" and
speedy construction of the Appleton &
New London Railway" it will make a
fruitless expenditure Of it's Boston
funds and home gasconade, and in the
end will be fortunate if it builds mile
ofroad over lhe grantees route to Stew
ems Point.
The capitalists who have invested
their means in the great enterprise OF
building a railroad from Manitowoc via.
Appleton, New London and Wausau,
have fully investigated the projects, and
| decided that it shall succeed. They
command all the money necessary, with
the aid Of the country through which
the road will run; and, like their Wis
consin hackers, they possess the zeal,
energy and perseverance to surmount ali
obstacles, defeat all unfriendly com bina-
tons, and carry the project forward to q
successful completion. With such men,
Success as q duty.
Well may Appleton rejoice, and tle

ditionsl railway facilities which this road
will afford this section of country-fa
cilities and franchises which no exist
ing railway or other monopoly can buy

add millions Of capital and scores Of
thousands Of population to city and coun-
] try.
Then let one and all hurrah, and add
their appreciation to the efforts of the

cured so much, and who viii not rest
satisfied till train of cars shall pass
