MILL PROPERTY AND FARM FOR SALE.
Mr.. Harvey Hubbard informs us that
he intends disposing of his beautiful
homestead with the excellent waterpower
and highly cultivated farm, for the pur-
pose of investing more extensively III
manufactures at Reedsyille.
As much as we desire the increase of
Factories and the development and most
profitable application of the natural re-
sources of our county for that purpose,
we cannot help feeling of depression
that the estate OF the late Olivia G. Hub
bard, the acquisition and Improvement
of which was the aim and success of his
active life, and which has been faithfully
continued by his worthy son, should
now be transferred very probably to en-
tire strangers. But such is life scenes
and actors are changing continually and
there will be III a few years, hardly re-
membrance left of the labors and trials
of the early settlers of our county. Our
only desire III this respect is, that they
may be succeeded, as IN this case, by as
energetic, active and honorable men AS
were those who preceded them.

CONFLAGRATIoN.-I becomes our
painful duty to record the total loss by
fire, last night, of the Two Rivers Pail
Factory, together with the stock in the
yards, amounting to at least $50, 900.
AS we are informed by Mr.. CONNIE,
the fire caught in the engine room and
spread with fearful rapidly over the
whole building. Our steam engine vas
sent for, but arrived too late to save
much, although it did splendid service.
The proprietors are not insured, and
Though they are rich, the loss must be
severe. There is no doubt that their
energy and perseverance will soon have
another, and probably still larger factory
in operation These gentlemen, as well
as their large number OF employees
have the heartfelt sympathy OF our
whole community

The COMMODORE. The eminent cor
respondent of the Wisconsin, whose In

ice in the lake, to take his course from

sail and had to hire horse and sleigh !;
that the horse, unused to being steered
solely by sthe whip-stoek, soon took its
own course at a 80 knot speed, by which
,hc cutter labored hard for some lime
until it was capsized, and the Commodore
was left founderng in deep snow bank

NEW ADyERTISEMETS. DIR. Muzzy
presents his card in todays TRIBUNE
In directing attention to it, we cannot
hut wish MIN complete success in his
practice as a HON. epathic physician and
heartily recommend him as such to oar
community. His ofic is not. as We er,
roueously stated last week, in the Gle. er
brick block bat opposite on 9th street ad-
joining the Windiate House.
B. NJ Watson of the Old Colony Nur-
series, Plymouth, Mass. presents again
his Card in this issue. We have for sew.
eral years received seeds and bulbs from
him and can say truly that We have
always been fully satisfied with their sue
cess. We therefore cheerefuliy recon-
mend his establishment to the patronage
Of our gardening community.
MEssRs. JOHN PLUMB & Bro, who
have bought out the old establishment
of Messrs. Murphy & Smart, are fixing
up their store in excellent style and are
only prevented by The non-arrival Of their
large stock Of new goods to eli it up COM
pletely. We recommend the young mer
chants as honest, energetic gentlemen,
worthy Of the patronage of cur entire
community.

MEssRs. Villas & BARNES received last
week large invoice of Wagon stuff, that
is, all the wood work for wheels, axels,
tongues ETC., which was not manufac-
trlred in this county. Now is this not a
disgrace to us, living in q territory every
foot OF which has to be cleared of the
best kind of hard wood timber? Our
farmers are chopping white ask, cherry,
curly maple, ETC., into fre-wood, be-
cause there is no demand for it in any
other shape, while our merchants are
importing manufactured timber into our
county. EIessrs. Hubbard & Co., are
manufacturing Hubs at Reedsville in
large quantities and of excellent quality
and find ready sale for all they can make I;
why cannot others do likewise III some
Other branch OF woodwork ? May we
soon SEE change for the better in our
county.

coast, as far as the coasting trade is con,
cerned.
Your committee cannot conclude this
report without calling attention 30 the
difference which exists between the fees
OF the custom Houses on the great lakes,
ard those Of the custom houses on tie
se1 coast. The custom house fees for
the lakes are considerably higher than
those Ton the seacuast; they create d
heavy tax Oh our vessels navigating these
lakes that are hound to report on each ar
rival and clear on each departure from and
TO another district, and that the districts
are located so closely together that the
masters of most OF the vessels are bound to
make reports to the custom houses, and
to pay the Zee for 'leecivina" or "cerii-
Tying mauiiests on almost every alter
nate day.
BY reference TO the act of June II,
1864, entitled IAN act to regulate the
terelgn and ceasting trade on the north
ern. north eastern and northwestern
frontiers. etc, your committee observe
that greater portion of the salaries of
the collectors of customs. heated or said
frontiers, is covered by the fees collected
by said collectors in the manner above
stated
For reasons teo obvious to need cxpla-
nation, your committee are of the opil-
ion that said salaries should be paid in
full out OF the appropriation of congress
| allowed to the treasury department 10
| detray the expenses for the collection of
the revenue, and the act above quoted
should be modified accordingly.
For all these reasons your committee
respectfully report back To the House
said memorial, and recommend that it be
adopted, and that duly authenticated
copy of the same, and of this report, be
transmitted to the President Of the Sen
ate and Speaker of the House, and It
each Of our senators and representative

DEEEe.

EMERI.-On Tuesday morning at 81
o'clock A. H., March 18th 1873 at
Manitowoc, Wis, MAMIE e. EMERY,
aged II years months.
It seems almost unnecessary to dc
more than speak the name Of Mamie En-
cry after announcing her much lannented
decease for just her name has been,
with a large circle of acquaintance, &
synonym foT unusual graces Of person
and character SO that retaining her
name seems like preserving beautiful
caslet trimming full Of rare gems.
It is vain, in this public way, 20 hope
to administer solace or comfort to the
wounded and bleeding hearts of her be
reaved mother and relatives. There are
griefs TOO sacred to be unveiled to the
world and too tender to be assuaged by
any consultations preferred by the pub
lie. But with cautious words, Lost we
should seem to draw rude attention to
the anguish and desolation Of broken
circle, we viii, ON behalf of a multitude
OF friends, give expression TO the deep
sense OF bereavement that PeIvaIes our
community, with both young and old /;
we viii drop tear with those that weep
and endeavor TO embalm the choice mem
Dries that cling and cluster about her
name.
Her life, 50 well known to many in
Manitowoc, though mirror of purity
and innocence-and later so rich IN the
Developments of worth and solid excel
lence-was not more beautiful than the
death. Although she seemed to dispute
with disc ase for the mastery of life for {
period of three months, vet murmer
never escaped her lips, and her abound
ing kindness and gratitude constantly
prompted her, whether at midnight OF
IN the morning or at monday, TO recoG-
nize and warmly acknowledge the small
est attention, until the power to recog-
nize kindness, faded away together with
The decay of her power to express graft
tude. The symmetry and balance of her
character were. never lost nor even marred
by the wasting OF disease nof the eontem-
plation of death. Her peace was SO com
plete, herconfidence SO well grollndedand
her hope so bright that she was herself sur
prised at her uHalloyed happiness. He-
life was short and, In the ordinary way
of judging, not eventful but, let is
value and Importance be measued, not
by the number OF her yeals, but by the
excellence and beauty of die cilarae.e
she attained She has been taken fro
her family and friends; but, Geet
than the flowers that vii distiii the de8s
Of heaven Ipon her grave. more gentle
and placid than the summer resting o
the Lake she loved to gaze u 1on. Gno
brighter dlan the studded sky that vii
guard her resting place-win be the az
fecGonate remembrance of al VINO knew

NARROW ESCAPE. Our old friend
Hanson Rand. came near being killed
last Tuesday, by falling of a load of hay,
which was capslzing at the same time
against a fence, near the residence of
Capt. Guyles. Mr. Rand struck the
fence with the back Of his head and
shoulders and was bruised considerably,
so that he is still laid up at his residence.
Serious and painful as the accident is, we
are glad that he Jared no worse. for-to
judge from the locality Of the accident
immediate death was its most presum-
able consequence.
