his own part of the State, having once
been elected Sheriff of Milwaukee county
when the opposite party had 5000 ma
jority. Always public spirited, he has
been in public life great DEAL We all
remember how we'll he did his work
while in charge of affairs up north after
the great fires. We are not disposed to
urge the claims of any particular person
at this early day, but we are free to say
that we deem Captain L. an able and
honorable gentleman who would adorn
the position he will prove strong con-
testant for the nomination.

4th OF JULY.


We cannot hear of any preparations
for celebrating this day. The time is
near at hand and some steps ought to
be taken to properly commemorate our
National Independence All classes
ought to unite in one grand gathering
in one of the parks or one of the beauti-
full groves around our city.
We hope the proper steps will be
taken to collect money and make all the
arrangements for salutes, music, speeches
and all the usual demonstrations GUS
tomary on such occasions. Next week
we hope to state that something has
been done by our public-spirited citizens
in the matter.
We believe there is some talk of a
small picnic and fishing party at Silver
Lake on that day.

A PARTY of young folks from here ar
ranged themselves on Friday last for a
grand excursion to Two Rivers, but mach
to the dismay Of the ladies and gentle
men, the sea was too heavy and finally
concluded to embark in buss and take
an overland passage, arriving at their
destination about 10 O'Clock and put I'D
at the Lake House. The Chronicle says
that they were joined shortly after by
goodly number of our young people,
and after partaking of an excellent sup
per, the happy jewellers repaired to old
Odd Fellows Hall, which in the mean
time had been hastily put in readiness,
where they tripped the light fantastic !"

indeed happy meeting, and all seemed

The Watertown Times tells of a breech-
loading shot gun owned by N. NJ. Smith
Esq, of that city, worth $500. 1t was
bought from an Engishman, and is de-
scribed as perfect. We. venture to say
that the Parker Brothers of West Meri-
den, Conn.,, who claim to be only Yankee
nutmeg men, manufacture abreech-load-
er, which for convenience, accuracy of
shooting, power of penetration and every
thing else, cannot be beaten in the world.
c. A. Payne, of this city, has one which
cost $40, which in Mr.. Payne's hands
has no equal. While the Parkers manu-
facture guns there is no need of sending
to Europe for the best shooting irons

Between this city and Two Rivers, a
"plug hat, sometimes called &c stove

hours of B and 4 o'clock A NJ, on the

it with many thanks, and perhaps re-
ward the finder.
P. S.-There may be little difficulty
in identifying the article, as it was
g knocked into a cooked hat just pre-
vious to parting with its owner.
