CLYDE CORRESPONDENCE.

The season at Clyde is now at its height.
Other places can speak for themselves. Old
Sol darts down his most direct rays of light
and heat upon every thing that goes to make
up what is called Clyde. He blazes away at
everything, both high and low. And this is
what makes the air feel like blazes all around,
He glares upon the long lines of brick build
ings, and payements of brick and stone and
wood, and wooden platforms stretching long
distances by the side of glaring railroads.
Glaring people stand staring at the glaring
trains, as they come and go, swiftly drawn by
glaring locomotives. The glary depot does
nothing but glare.
Clyde is a noted place. And where is the
place, go where you Will, that is notF "Busi-
ness, is business" And place not noted,
has no business to speak of; and therefore it
has ne business to live. Those accustomed TO
take notes of notoriety, speak Of her in earli-
est times, and for long time, as the little
village of Hamer's Corners; then altogether
situated on the Pike, and sometimes dubbed
Bangan. How is it now? There she don't
stand, except in few very worthy additions
and improvements on her former littleness.
There also lies the city of her dead, so low
ingly pillowed on the hill close by and daily
visited by the feet of those whose eyes would |
read Ill the marble mementoes there, the few |
lines in the earthly history OF citizens, friends
and relations, passed away. And there, also, |
in the cemetery, bearing his name ever green,
and containing the body of him whom the ma
ton loves to honor, stands the foundation
for the future monument to the young and |
talented General Mcpherson, on the very |
spot, it is said, where once stood the old log
school house with its playground, within |
which the rudiments of his education were
acquired. This part of town is therefore well
worthy of note on account of the beautiful
location here of the Mcpherson Evergreen
Cemetery, where lies the remains of so many
fellow soldiers as well as fellow citizens.
Many other parts now also sing the notes of
their own praise. The railroad center sounds
its loudest notes and says, when come and
stretched out my arms to rich and poor alike,
town came tumbling, creeping and crawling,
then walking and now running to welcome
the best friend that Clyde ever had. The
churches too, with steepes high in air, sing
the song of the haIlowed groud on which they
stand And Piety HiH, beyond the creek, and
stretching far away, echoes back the notes
she hears, and Ginning in an accompaniment,
she says, "berries and grapes in great abund-
ance here" Nearly every street in Clyde
might, with good deal of propriety; be called
maple street, SO abundantly are naples used
as shade trees. This also is worthy of note.
But should deem myself unworthy of the
suggestive name bear, did I not say word
or two in this connection that might help to

A Museum, Menagerie, Circus and
Caravans the high sounding title that
Warmers Great Pacific Combination is known
under, and which is to spread its three large
and distinct tents in Fremont, Saturday, July
22d. It does seem that ths infection has even
spread unto our saw dust friends, and nothing
win satisfy their ambitious imaginations but
big museums immense caravans huge menage-
ries and gigantic circuses, all in separate tents
but for one price of admission-just such as
Warmers. Just think of it, museum with all
the wonders of art and freaks of nature, in an
immense pavilion, from which you pass into
one still larger, wherein are exhibited the
growing beasts, chattering birds and monkeys,
mammoth elephants, serene camels and inno-
cent dromedaries. Passing still, further on,
you enter the grand arena or hippodrome,
with all its gorgeous paraphernalia, towering
seats and hidden mysteries of the grand old
circus. which made our hearts leap with ioy
over thirty years ago.
The enterprise displayed by some managers
is truly wonderful, and when we see the grand
procession, with its gaily decked cages and
prancing horses moving down our streeS,
creating holiday for all the little girls and
boys in town, few of us dream that the same
scene was enacted in some remote village or
town the day previous, and in order to fill
their engagements here the entire company
INDUCED in midnight breakfast and thirty
mile drive to make good their appointments.
This Combination of Warmers is probably
the most stupendous enterprise IN the show
business, embracing as it does three separate
and distinct shows, and three separate tents.
enabling those who wish to enjoy animal his
tory or the freaks of nature, several hours of
study, and at the same time be
entirely free of the arenic sports and pastimes.
Great care has been taken by the manager in
the selection of his artists. The circus DEPART
ment is claimed to be superior to anything of
the kind ever before offered. Those of our citi-
zens who were disappointed in seeing big

The tusks only were exhibited of the late la
nented Tippo-Saib, may now be gratiRed
with sight of the greatest monster on earth

hundred and eighty pounds, and is one hund-
red and thirty years of age.

Rambling Around.

Work on the Greensburg pike is progressing
but SO slowly that one section is nearly worn
out before another is made passable Great
enterprises require time, however, and this
will doubtless reach completion some day.
Monday and Tuesday we made a flying trip
through the western tier of townships iii this
county, which is not an uninteresting section
of country, considering its condition a few
years ago, and the rapidity with which it is
being developed. The main roads are good,
except when the old black swamp gets on a
rampage, by reason of too abundant rains,
then it is easy enough to touch bottom, but the
difficulty is in getting out again. The cross
roads generally present warning appearance.
That narrow opening away through those
woods, just wide enough to let the sun shine
in is one cross road. The stumps on both
sides of the path are tall and numerous. In
the path they are shorter and far enough apart
so that with a reliable animal and careful en-
gineering vehicle Of ordinary width can pass
between. The bridges may be pontoon or any
other toon, for the only time those ways are at
all passable is when the ground is so dry that
no water viii be found in the channels. Other
cross ways are more invitingin appearances yun-
less they cross some stOnsy ridge where nature

Immediately in the center Of the g1eat westward
movement of emigration. Crossing Illinois and

These three points are the gateways into three
great sections of the trans Missouri region.
The Northern gate is Omaha, where the great
Pacific road will take you to the land of gold and
grapes, sunny mountains, and perpetual summer,
The middle gate is Plattsmouth, which opens
upon the south half of Nebraska south of the Plat
te river region unsurpassed on the continent for
agriculture and grazing. Just here are the B. &

ris, the land officer at Burlington, Iowa, can give
you all information, and in the heart Of them is

so that the certainty about their road seems

location of the depot. A portion of the people
want it located near the river, while another
faction say the proper place is about fifty rods
west OF that point. Undoubtedly the anxious
ones have visions of town suddenly stretch
ing out over large area, and the most desir-
able location for a depot is near where the
center of this wide spread town is to be. The

expedite the maple tree business. Some folks
there are who seem to think that unless limbs
are left on young trees when planted, none
will grow. So they cut off the top and the
ends of the limbs and leave the stubs These
stubs generally stand at irregular intervals,
and sometimes on this side and sometimes on
! that The sap generally goes to these old
stubs, instead of forming new limbs and
symmetrical head. Such trees are to be des-
pissed, and ought to be cut down and cast into
the fire. The tops should be cut off about
eight feet from the ground, and every limb
cut off close to the body. The roots also need
little trimming and smoothing. Then dig
something more than mere post hole to stick
them into. Let the ground be well meilowed
up, even beyond where the roots extend. Set
the trees a little deeper than they stood in
the woods, and cover the ground all around
the trees with saw dust or any kind of litter
in order that the ground may be shaded and
gather moisture, instead of drying out In
times of drouth they may be Watered; not
merely sprinkled. Allow me to say also here.

they should be trimmed close and the ton cut

Sandusky and Fremont Trade
There IS movement on foot to establish a
line of trade by water between this city and
Fremont We understand that the movement
is encouraged by the railroad companies, and
the business men of Fremont will enter into
it itheart1y. The importance and convenience of
such an arrangement to our people here will
be readily seen, and it therefore remains for
our business men to make it a success. The
staunch little steamer ]. K. White, Capt. Jos.
Greenhaigh, will leave with party for Ere
mont this morning at O'Clock, returning after
delay there ef or hours, and cordial in
vitation is extended to the Mayor, CITY and
county officials and business men to accompany.
The White is admirably adapted for this route,
beng an iron boat, splendidly made through
out, built to carry both passengers AMI freight
and drawing only about two feet of water
Captain Greenhalgh is an experienced sailor
and withall gentleman. We see no reason
why this proposed arrangement cannot be eff
fected if our business men will only unite with
those of our neighboring city. Let them ioln
the excursion to and discuss the matter.-San-
dslsky Register.
We had call from the party referred to
above, on Wednesday afternoon, who were
anxious to see the thing tried" It would be
a great convenience to have such a boat on
such line to depend ON, and we have every
reason to think it would in time pay hand
somely. The owners could not expect to
amass fortune at once, but they would estab-
lish trade that would grow, and grow the
more rapidly as they demonstrated the relia-.
bility of the vessel The captain of the vessel
is spoken of very highly, and we have no
doubt he would soon be able to make the ].
K. White general favorite.
