Our town was yesterday visited by
Messrs M. Y. Johnson, Geo II. Mel.

Railway Company. The object of the
central Grant in the way of railroad
connection with the East aud South,
and TO examine the lay of the coun:

fort, to which latter place their road
is already under contract to be built.
We learn that it is proposed TO grade
and tie the road from Galena to O.
point near Platteville this year, and
to finish the road to Montfort early
next season, in time to carry away
the crop products Of the rich SUR
rounding country. From Wingville
to the river the road will take one of
the several routes proposed not yet
decided upon. The opinion is Begin

scheme is closely connected with the
interests of Central and Southern

Good Temperance Law

Wisconsin has passed wise tenn
perance law at last By is provis.,
ions, the person who sells liquor j.
responsible for the acts of his custo-
mer while under the Influence Of the
drink, and the man who owns tbs
building in which the liquor is sold il
also responsible for damage done By
the ono who drinks on the premise,
or buys there to drink elsewhere -
So if man gets drunk and sets fir,
TO a building, steals horse or com
mits murder, the one who suffer-
loss has a remedy at law from the
liquor seller and the owner Of the
premises. So, tool man of fam
lily refuses to provide for lis home
ones, and spends one or more dollars
week at a saloon, buying what is
of no use but damage to him, his
family can collect the money SO
squandered of the one who received
it. This will be better than gold TO
thousands of poor families, but it is
very severe on liquor-sellers. 1t is a
direct stab at their rights 10 MAKE
drunkards, widows and orphans
but there is no law compelling q man
to sell intoxicating liquor, so man
is not obliged to enter into or remain
in that business.-Br Brick Pomer0y.

Behind the Age"

The above is the topic Of an edi,
torial which appeared recently in the
Chicago Post. After passing some
very severe criticisms upon several
other parties and churches the Post
lights upon Dr. Whiting Of James
vile.
"In GAINESVILLE, Wis, narrow
minded Yankee, called by the Con.
gregational Church of that burg "the
reverend Lyman Whiting" recently
refused to permit the remains of
man TO be buried from his church,
because the deceased was Free
Mason, and he disliked Free Mason
ry The intolerance is made some
what more striking by the citcum-
stance that the dead man was not a
heather or even a stranger, but was,
in fact, member in good standing
of the fastidious Writings church.
These statements coming to light,
six trustees of tho church published
letter denying them totally, and
accompanied their letter by a letter
from the widow, signed by her name,
Sophia Holmes, in which she is made
to declare that the report that Whit
ing refused her husband burial is
"untrue in every particular" and
that the burial was from ner own
house by her own request.
At last there comes a letter from
Sophia Holmes to the Gazette, in
which she declares that her card, Sc
ahoat by the trustees, was forgery;
that she neither wrote it, signed it,
nor authorized it, and that her first
statement was correct. Here the
matter stands at the present writ

Grain Shipments to Europe.

Capt. Chas. Merry OF Dubuque, who
has been persistent in his efforts for
number of years to inaugurate
new system of grain shipment to
Europe, has, we learn, enlisted the
assistance of capitalists in st. Louis
and New Orleans to carry out his
project. He proposes to establish a
line of propellers for carrying grain
in bulk down the Mississippi Four
vessels of the kind are now being
built at st. Louis They will be of
5000 tons burden and will draw.
when fully loaded, ten feet of water,
but will take 70, 900 bushels of grain
in bulk on seven feet of water. Cap
tain Merry is confident that these
propelers can be operated for $3.50
per day, and can make the trip to
New Orleans in four days, and the
trip back in six without trouble. He
believes they will answer the pur-
poses of Mississippi commerce in
every particular better than either
steamboats, or barges.
