Coal Company's dixie, near The southern

Richland County.

A late number Of the Richland
County Republican gave many valua'
bic statistics in regard to the past
history and present business of that
county, from which we learn that;
The County of Richland was organ
lied by act Of the legislature in 1850,
and then contained 903 inhabitants.
1t has a polulation of 1853.
There were 58,075 acres sown to
grain last year, and the yield was at
least ,297, 900 bushels, worth at pres
ent prices, $500. 500.
There were in the county at the date
of last assessment, in May last, 5,308
horses, valued at 1902, l21 neat cat
tie, 1862, valued at $147, 632 mules
and asses, 225, valued at $S,777;
sheep, 1874, valued at $27,91l !;
swine, 1851, valued at $28,577.
There was manufactured last year
in the county, 100000 feet of lum-
Der, worth 1000 railroad ties 100,-
900, worth s25, 900 hoop poles cut,
100000, worth $4,000 slaves, 500
900, worth $4,000.
OF the number and value OF the cat
tie, sheep and hogs shipped from the
county we have no certain data on
which to base an estimate, but think,
however, that 5000, 900 is not too high.
During the past year there has been
grain, lumber, stock &c, sold to the
value Of 1855 900. There has been
merchandise bought and sold amount
ing to $1,15l sos

THE
WEEKLY WISCONSIN
FOR 1876.
BETTER THAN EVER.

The camiug year, it is anticipated, will be
one of the most important aud interesting in
the civil history of the country. 1t will be the
wear of Presidential election, in which the
question of finance will enter into the party
campaigns and political discussions as never
before. It will be the centennial year of the
nations declaration of independence, and be-
sides being marked by the celebrations incident
to such notable event, it is to witness an eX~
position of the products of agriculture, manu-
features and art far greater and more compre-
hensiye than has ever occurred upon the con-
tinent. These things viii make newspaper
more than ever an Indispensable thing IN every
family.
The proprietors Of the Weekly Wisconsin,
design that it shall be, even more completely
than heretofore, if possible, an eptome OF I'M
portant current events all over the world, and
especially in our own country. Everything OF
general interest will find its appropriate men,
ton Political affairs, commercial interests
especially those pertaining TO our own State
and nation, and social and moral questions viii
be regularly reported, and fully ana indepen-
IDENTITY discussed as their importance may
seem to demand. The currency question will
receive the thorough discussion which its great
Importance demands, and the Wisconsin Will
always be found on the side of honest money
In addition to a complete digest of the cur
rent news, the Wisconsin, will contain serial
and short stories of character to interest all
and offend none. The young folks will always
find something to interest them, the farmer,
the gardner and housekeeper will not be tor~
COTTON by the editor in filling up his columns,
Art, science fashion and general literature
will have their place, and, in short, nothing
that goes to make up complete and wholeN

How Hank Mclean Discovered that
He Was on the Down Grade.

"Hank" Mclean, of McHenry
county, H.. is one of your genuine
Westerners of the early pioneer
stamp. He is politician, a farmer,
a patriot, and an incorrigible story
teller. Like Old Abe, he has story
to illustrate everything that comes
up, and generally his stories relate TO
himself or his personal experience or
observations.
One day, meeting him at hotel
in this city, be told US how Long
John Wentworth once tried to make
a Democrat of him.
"You see," he said, "Long John
came up to me when | was in town
