A CHANCE TO MAKE FORTUNE.
We stated last week that Mr.. S. A. Ben
jamin offered his splendid farm for sale,
situated in the town of Cato, at a very
low figure. We would also say that it
has the advantage of most farms by its
good watering facilities, and large guam
titles of maple growing upon it. This
point-it We are not mistaken-was once
the property OF the old railroad com PAW
which they had intended to make their
watering station. Mr. BENJAMIN offers
this for sale because his extensive bust
ness in Brown County requires his whole
attention. This farm of 100 acres is
situated about one mile below what is
called the Cato Corners and is largely
improved. Anyone wishing to purchase
can gain information by calling at this
Office or at the -four store of P. P. Smith,
in this city. 5-tf

all who have any taste for the true and

usual, are very fine and comprise among
the full page ones: 1.-THE Ruins of the

after Heyn, and one of Konewka's won
derful and numerous silhouettes, 1.-The

artist contrives to read us quaint little
homily OH the fleeing nature of human
pleasure in the most genial fashion.
The five others, though less in size, are
equally good, and the whole are executed
In that fine and delicate manner for
which this journal stands pre-eminent.
The literary matter is fully up to the
standard, and in tie articles on the

will be found, while those fond of lighter

FROM MEMPHIS TO MANITOWOC.

A greater difference in temperature is
experienced by any person travelling ten
or fifteen degrees oflattitude than is sup
posed at this time of tie year. For two
months past the thermometer in Memphis
has averaged 80 degrees, with now and
then a warm day, when the mercury
would run up to 95 or there abouts.
Until reaching Lafayette Ind. no per-
ceptible difference was felt, but after
leaving the latter place, the influence of
old Lake Michigan was felt. Overcoats
and heavy shawls became not alone
comfort but necessity. The wheat
harvest was long passed in Tennessee
| though the shocks were still in the fields,
but looked very thin, In strong contrast
to the different management of farms In
Indiana where the wheat shocks just put
up would average 500 per cent more
than the same lands in Tennessee. This
| is not owing to better land in Indiana
| but to the system Of cultivation. In
Indiana as well as in most Northern
States, the farmers pillow their lands,
whereas in the south the soil is only
scratched. Only week before leaving
Memphis on visiting new clearing, we
saw a negro blowing, az ne called it;
the burrows were not over three inches in
depth. Under such system Of farming
the most prolific soil would refuse to
yield abundant crops. AS much later as
the season is in Indiana than Tennessee.
we never saw, with but few exceptions,
better looking Corn than was to be met
with on the route Letween Louisville
and Chicago. The distance between
Paris Tenn. and Louisville was passed in
the night, so nothing was seen of Ken
lucky. Many questions have been asked
relating to the safety of life and property
in the south, and, as far as West Tennes-
see is concerned, [ can say it is as safe as
in Wisconsin. Lawlessness exists in a
greater or less degree in every communi.
ty; if any occurs in the North it is ac-
counted as an unfortunate occurrence,
whereas in the South any thing of that
kind is at once credited to political
crimes, and the myth KU-KLUx is held
up to the execration of the world. The
people of the south are at lenght aroused
to hunt down the so-caled Ku-KluX.
The greater number of Ku-Klux out
RACES reported, have been perpetrated by
rufians, the out securing of both armies
OF the late war. Justice, though proven
bially slow, is beginning to be felt. Three
men or rather brutes, who about year
| ago hung an inohensive young man, were
tried, found guilty and condemned to be
hung, they appealed to the Supreme
Court, and. before this appears, the iudg-
ment of the Criminal Court of Memphis
has undoubtedly been confirmed. One
of the men died before the trial was con-
Guided. The other two will get their
deserts. Take the relative population
North and South, and no greater amount
of crime will be found South in proper
| ton than in the north.
