COMMUNICATIONS.

Ed. TRIBUNE On the 20tL of July,
the inhabitants of Manitowoc and its
environs attended the having of the cor
ner stone with so much pleasure and
amusement as the majority Of them had
probably not witnessed for some time.
Crowds of people were increasingly sur
rounding the scene, even Nature herself
seemed to contribute to the occasion.
+ The armament was bright and clear, IN
terspersed with light clouds, resembling
little lambs ON a green pasture. Every
/ thing was properly arranged and suitable
T! for the occasion The thick foliage of
the forest served as a shelter to protect
us fro,i the dazzling rays of the sun.
dirth and 10y penetrated all our hearts;
everything seemed to rejoice and be
cheerful.
The ceremonies were commenced about
one O'Clock with great solemnify. Eight
: priests dressed IN their festival costume
entered the place where the corner stone
/ lay, and during the singing of psalms
| htanies, the corner stone was laid by
| Rev. Jos. Fessler, of Manitowoc. A
multitude of people gathered around the
! b'nlding while the ceremonies took place.
After the conclusion of the ceremonies
| Rev. H. Schubert, of Maple Grove, de-
| iivered an eloquent speech in the Ger
man language, after him Rev. W.
Tierney, of Meme, delivered one in the
English language, and finally Mr.. Jos.
koudelka (theologian from ST. Francis)
lectured to the Polish people in their
own language.
The goddess of music also seemed 10
honor us with her presence, for the
| pleasant sounds of the instruments were
continually heard and their melody car
| ried far off into the forest while the little
| feathered musicians hardened in silence;
| the quiet lake whispered sweetly, and
the surrounding hills responded in the
echo. Then our accomplished singers,
| inspired by the muse of song, as If to
| emulate the instrumental music, let their
voices be heard like torrent that has
| broken through the embankment and
then melting into sweet soft sounds, the
melodious tones floating gently along.
o how we felt there ! How we felt like
shouting for JOY and then like crying
| out of sweet grief.
About six o'clock in the evening the
visitors slowly departed from the below
ed spot, carrying with them the pleasant
and lasting remembrance Of that mem
orable and joyful day.
And now we would tender our sincere
thanks to you, the kind musicians, who
have SO bravelv let the sounds of your
instruments be heard to you singers,
favorites of the muse to all of you who
| have so diligently assisted i'll preparing
the feast, and to you, honored visitors,
who have favored us with ;our company
and for the liberal donotions which you
have contributed.

ORANGES have been Farmers
Societies with the above name formed
all over the United States, and this State
too, but here in Manitowoc we have not
seen a sign of any yet. If the object is
a good one, as we have not the least
doubt, it ought to be supported by every
farmer who has the welfare of his COM
munity at heart, and, if the main object
is, as we learn, to counteract and subdue
the powerful monopolies, the sooner
they organize and go to work, the better
it will be for them.

quite Railroad center and all its private
and prospective manufacturing establish
ments can be easily reached by Railroad
tracks, which give them superior facili-
ties, and have but little doubt that with
in the space of ten years Menasha will
become the leading manufacturing town
of the Northwest 1t has beautiful To-
cation and most charming surroundings
and cannot fail to attract 70 it capital that
will give it a remarkable growth. The
country between this town and the Wolf
River near Weyauwega is rich and pro-
ductive and is under good state of cul-
t1vation its trade is tributary to Mena-
sha and viii soon be To Manitowoc, if
the latter will only exert itself in the
right direction From the Wolf River
to the Wisconsin River the face of the
country is pleasing to the eye but the
soil Is sandy and less rich, but many ex-
cellent farms are to he seen. Weyauwe-
go, Waupaca and Amherst on the Wau-
paca river have good water powers and
are thriving villages. Waupaca and Por-
tage counties produce good crops of
wheat and potatoes of a superior quality.
| Stevens Point, the county seat of Portage
county, is becoming a fourishing city
under railroad influence, some One
hundred buildings and three or four mills
having been erected there since the rail
road reached it from Menasha. The
railroad, after crossing the Wisconsin
River, passes through a dense wilderness
up to this point and beyond, which was
unhoken except by it's track and the set
Elements that followed it. The first seven
miles is through sandy land snd but
lightly timbered, the remaining portion
is through rich clay soil covered with
very heavy growth of timber of the
various kinds and of extraordinary size
and height. On either side of the rail-
road is an almost solid wall of this tim
ber
! Forty-six miles above Stevens Point is
a large saw mill just completed. And
three miles beyond this is another mill
also just completed. This railroad is of
vast Importance to the people Of this
State, Illinois and Iowa on account of
the vast growth of timber along the line
of the road and its Importance will be
largely increased when it reaches the
mineral regions of Lake Superior, which
will afford an immense traffic to this road,
and here will be found the greatest field
of enterprise thai has yet been furnished
in our State or in the whole Northwest.
Before closing L will return my thanks
to the following officers of the road for
the kind treatment and courtesy which
was extended to me while on their road,
viz E. B. Phillips, General Manager
and large stock holder OF the road, Capt.
Pratt, Paymaster OF the road, Mr.. Har-
ris, Superintendent, Mr. Bacon, Asst.
Supt., Mr. Ravens, Chief Engineer, Mr..
G. Campbell, Master Mechanic, and last
but not least that whole sould genial and
experienced conductor, Ned. Luflingwell.
Yours, &C.. NJ.
