ALMOST GONE. night last week
as young man of our acquaintance was
walking along the sidewalk, on lis way
home. he observed a man coming up
behind him with very quick step, which
caused him to be suspicious that the man
ment something wrong. The young man
did not hasten away but was curious to
know what the stranger wanted. He
soon satisfied his curiosity when the
strange man made desperate plunge on
him and tried to take from him his pock-
et-book. The struggle that ensued was
somewhat lively for a short time, but
fortunately the young man escaped with
out loosing that handsome little sum Of
money in his possession.

OUR RAILWAY.

For the past three weeks large
number Of men have been at work
in altering and improving the old
railroad bed; although the weather
has been most fayorable, still
there has been already SO much
done, that we have good cause to
believe, that good and permanent
iron track will connect us with the
cszssitie world even before the close
of navigation. The old piles upon
which the road was intended years
ago over the low grounds on the
left side of the Manitowoc river
have been torn down to give way to
a substantial earth enbankment, the
lowering Of the grade for some dis
lance west Of the old pile bridge
has caused this change to be cheap
er even in the construction, while it
increases the benefit to the large
dock interests of our town very ma
terially. Well matured plans have
been decided upon for the viaduct
across the Branch, consisting of a
cheap and at the same time pcrma-
nent, strongly bolted wooden struc-
ture forty feet high of SO feet span
and an other similar one of 65 feet
span, while the pile driving has al
ready been commenced across our
river.
New dump carts, which will dis
charge on either side and of a much
larger capacity than those now in
use on the grade, are now being
built and will save much time and
labor. Were it not for the unfor-
tunate break in the Erie canal we
should now in all probability
be able to report the arrival Of the
rails, but as everything is being
done to get ready for them as far
as possible, we do not hesitate to
say that we can congratulate our
citizens and all those, soon to be
connected with US ON the most di-
rect route to the Pacific Ocean, Oh
the zeal, energy and efficiency of
the President, and Directors, she
Chief Engineer and all the employ
ees of the Appleton and New Lon
don Railroad Company.

From the Appleton Crescent,
THE RAILWAY.
Shall it be Extended at Once to New
london?

This question already excites interest
in our midst. Why should it not? The
Manitowoc Road can inst as well be in
operation to Grand Bhute Island BY the
lst of October as by New Years day,
all other things being equal With FIVE
hundred men at work. and an active
management-smch as President Vilas's
personal supervision must ensure-if the
towns of Appleton to and exclusive of
New London lend proper aid toward its
construction, tsaln can pass from New
London to ManitoWoc on the lst day of
January, 1872. just as well as to wait
till the lst day of January, 1873.
It is for tie people interested to say just
how RAPIDLY this road should be ballt
The capitalists who furnish the iron and
rolling stock and really CONTROL the road
are anxious to reach Lake Superior at
the earliest possible moment. There
the proposed line OF road To say by their
nroffefs Of aid just hos quick they de-
sire its contamination.
New london is waking up OF the sub
ject. Hortnnvile should proceed to
canvass the matter without delay.
The following Communication appears
in the last New london Times: its au-
thor. we are assured, being q business
man OF that thriving village:
Editors Times The notice in your
last issue Of the work upon the Manito-
voc Railroad suggests the following in
nuirie.: Do the business men Of New
London ever give that road Thought?
Is it to be supposed that Railroad
Company, without an invitation even,
will build q road TO this place? The city
Of Appleton has given bonds for $50, 600
to have that railroad brought on to the
! island near the blast furnace From
there it will most certainly go to Neenah
and Menasha, unless some effort is made
to bring it this way. Appleton prefers
to have it come here, and has an extra
$50, 900 for it when it shall have passed
| through the city on to this side. But
/ Appleton. will not build it so New Lon
don ALONE. The advantages of this
road are SO apparent that need scarce
ly mention them. With it we are on
the great thoroughfare from the North
ern Pacific to the East; without it We
are little town--maybe in ten years
| twice as large as we are now. Has this
place bonded it so heavily for the G. B.
& i. p. Railroad that it has nothing
left to help another. and, [ am almost
ready to say, a MUCH sURER road?
IF these enquiries excite thought
upon this important subject, and thought
acton, the great end may be second
railroad into our town, and the most
careless one among US will rejoice.

CORNER LoAFERs. -Corner loafers are
a nuisance, always and ever. They are
stumbling blocks to the active and busy
public, besides being disgusting sight to
behold. We don't know of more repul-
sive objects than humans" planted on
some prominent corner, with their hands
rammed liz their breeches pockets, lean
ing up against the railing, smoking a
pipe, or running their jaws to manufac-
ture tobacco JUICE to squirt on TIE side
walks. They are certainly a nuisance
which ought to be abandoned.
We rotice that the Philadelphia police
are al olishing corner loafers. Some
pretty good looking men think it hard
ship if they can't have the privilege
Of planting themselves in such COM
pany.

DoGs.-There is no town or city in the
world which has not some disadvantages
to contend with that are peculiar to
itself. Manitowoc has several, but we
would especially mention the dogs. This
nuisance we must endure until some en-
terpiising genius establishes an extern
sive sausage factory here. IF We want
strangers, who visit our thrifty city. to
appreciate It's advantages, we must not
send a dozen yelping ours to thier heels
to frighten them. Can't something be
done to diminish this great number of
dogs?

Potato BUGs.-Mr. Simon Hunt, Of
Hudson, in o letter to the Wisconsin
Farmer, predicts that the potato bugs
have been pretty much destroyed, and
advances this plausible theory, which
will interest everybody who lives in the
country. The potato bug, as is we'll
known, dies after laying its eggs. The
warm weather last autumn, deceived the
bugs into laying their eggs, which opera
ton should have been deferred until
spring, lying dormant through the win
ter. The bugs did according to the pro-
gramme, and the frosts destroyed their
larvae. Therefore, there will be few if
any potato bugs during the season of
1871,
