FRIEND yAN:-Yesterlay morning.
when vending my way to my daily
labors, stopped 4 few minutes on the
sidewalk aud listened to a few jocniar
remarks from small knot Of Our citi-

rection of the river, where they got
into Il small, diiapidated canoe. !

TrnRIpLr FInE AT CoRyALI1s.-

TERRIBLE FIRE AT CORyAIL1S.--
News reaches lis just before we go to
press, that most destructive fire oc-
cured at Corvallis, on Wednesday
night. Some niue new buildings OIL
Maine street, the scene of devastat-
ing fire but few months ago, are
laid in ruins. The fire originated in 4
two-story frame dwelling, owned by
Mrs. Dolsc, the lower or first story
of which was occlipied by Chls. kicter,
Of this city, as 4 beer saloon. The fire
spread rapidly, there being 4 brisk
wind blowing from tie l:bfthwest. aud
soon the entire block, from Fishers
two-story brick Oh the northern corner
OF the block, southWard was in u blaze,
defying all efforts TO save. As before
stated, nine buildings were destroyed,
occupied as follows: Five saloons,
two butcher shops, one dry goods and
grocery store, and one saddle aud har-
ness shop. But one Of the buildings
burned was insured. The City Hotel
which stood on the corner south Of the
buildings burned, was several times on
fire, aud was only saved by the per>ls-
tent efforts of parties with patent fire
textingnisllers, eight of Which were
kept in constant use. We have heard
no reliable estimate of the loss, but
suppose it i large, aud will be serious
ly felt BY our terribly unfortunate SIS
ter city. 1t il thought the fire was
the work Of an inceutliary. as no fire
had been used in the building in which
the fire originated Tor some hours.
We hope, If such prove the case, the
guilty party may ha speedily detected
and brought to Justice.
Lmef-SinCe writing the above, We
learn that Mrs. Doh,e's building was
insured tor $500, and two of the other
buildings We're covered BY Insurance
policies. AlesSrs. j. ". Williams 4
Co., the dry goods firm mentioned, we
are g,al to learn, had IN insurance Oh
their stock. Williams 4 Co. succeed
ed inipmoying the larger portion Of
their goods. III. Z. Bird removed ali
Ilfs hlr fixtures. counter, &c, before
the fire reached his saloon, and the
doors and windows in the building,
amennting to $50 or 500 III value. Ner2

PERSONALITIES OF TxzE CAM
PAGGN.

It is amusing to see our Liberal friends
deprecating the introduction Of person
alities in this campaign. They think it
is terrible oifense for the Republican
party to expose the short comingS of Mir.
Greeley's right-hand leaders. This is
cool to say the least The Liberal move
ment was born with SANDER on It's fore
head and lie in It's mouth. It's whole
stock in trade has been SANDER and
ialsehood. Ii started with the procla-
nation that it made no war on Republi-
can measures, but only on the men who
stood as the leaders Of the party. For
months Greeley journals have rocked
with the foul gossip Of the bar-rOom.
and Greeley speakers have exhausted
their lungs IN trying to defame the char
acter and blacken the name Of a man to
whom the Republic is largely indebted
for its life, and who, as President, has
done sufficient to entitle him to the re-
spcct and gratitude Of every honest citi-
zen in the nation.
Yet these Liberal dcfamers complain
of personalities. " They have failed in
their dirty work, and feel sore because
we have shown up a few black spots in
the record Of their leaders. We have
told the truth, and That fact hurts their
feelings. TrumbulI, Schurz, Doolittle,
and Farnsworth are among the active
reformers. They hold themselves up as
models Of what the Government officials
ought to be. Ifwe have taken the coats
from these gentlemen, and exposed their
official deformity, we have done a pub
lie duty. We have shown the people
that reform based on the administra-
ton Of such men would be rascality in
disguise. That's the plain English of
the whole movement, and the people so
understand it. Personalities will cease
after the 9Th of November. Until that
time the Liberals have a fair field.
They can't DO much worse than they
have done. Their mud don't stick it
has become too dry through long use
In the meantime, if they wish to escape
the sharp lance Of truth, they must get
out of the way, A speedy Abandonment
Of Greeley, or retirement into the shades
Of private life, may save these model re-
formers some ugly wounds.

ANOTHER FAIR.

The Mauitowoc County Fair showed a
good degree of sympathy and cc-opera-
ton, but was managed chiefly by Ameri-
cans.
Such a county, with IS, inhabitants

The Harvest Song of Wisconsin.
From Ike NeR0shu Press.

The harvest song Of Wisconsin should
be one Of JOY and thanksgiving Tho
Towering clouds Of springtime dissolved
In the season, and now the State laughs
with a rich harvest" The husbandmen
of our commonwealth are blessed in baa-
ket and store. Every one Of our ex-
changes comes to us bearing the good
tldlng Of great plenty, and we might
quote columns Of their cheering words
had we room. Wisconsin is still Wis
consin-the land where the yoeman
never drives his team afcId' without
an abundant reward for his toll. Here
drouth never parches, n clouds drown out
the crops but the seed is soWn and the
harvest surely smiles. The geographic
cal location OF our State, and its peculiar
composition OF soil, make il In these twUIe-
Spect superior to any state In the fedora
ton. Happy are they who have home
in rich, beautiful and blessed Wisconsin.
Upon no state has nature so generously
| out-tuTned her blessings. It's magnifi-
cent stretch Of prairie the treasure troVes
Of mineral wealth underlying the larger
| portion Of its surface, the fertility OF It's
| soil and healtfulnes5 Of climate, the
cheapncss of lands, the admirablene2s Of
its location in the great field Of trade, the
astonishing increase Of its railroads, the
rapid multiplication of figures on its cen
sus boOks-are the inducements which
are drawing the attention OF the world
to Wisconsin and in their incontro-
yertib!e arguments viii be found the rea-
son why cur State can claim the glory Of
being the most prosperous one in the
circle Of the West.

Mercury Raises the Drowned.

Stefano Lauducci, an Italian gardener,
was drowned while bathing in Lake Mer-
ccd on Sunday. His body was not dis
covered until Wednesday, the two men
who searched for the corpse and failed to
discover it by the ordinary means, having
heard that a loaf Of fresh bread into
which quicksilvefhad been inserted, would
drift about on the surface of the water
and finally sink over the dead body Of
the drowned. they procured large fresh
ioafa and placed in it four ounces of quick
silver The loaf was thrown on the wa
tiers of Lake MERGED. The bread imme-
diately moved against the wind. which
was blowing strong, and kept on Until 1t
reached certain point. The loaf then
suddenly stopped and sunk and came to
the serface aeain, and with it the dead
body. Tie men who uanate this remark
able story are Eincini Morini and Fran
cisco de Luca. They are well known to
our Italian population. Their story is
substantiated by others.-Sah Francisco
Chronicle.
