Trenton Letter.

TRENTON, Wis.,, Jan. "a, '76.
Our pleasant weather has past
and the snow king with all his train
of attendants is now again with us.
Wood hauling has revived, notwith-
standing the imposition practiced
upon the haulers.
In my last letter, DIN Arnolds
companion to Lake City should have
read sister instead of wife.
Our Grange held pleasant meet
ing on the 22d inst. Quite a num-
Der were present and it was made as
profitable as the times and means
would permit. One new feature
was aided to enliven the meetings,
and that was the reading of our first
paper edited by Miss Minerva
Sparks, for which she received a
unanimous vote of thanks.
Our leap year party passed off
pleasantly. We suppose the young
ladies had it all their own way.
Richard Reeves has sold his farm
and will probably live on the inter-
est Of his money the remainder Of
this winter.
Mr.. Featherstone, of Goodhue
Co., Mimi, has been lately endeav-
oring to purchase a farm in this
locality; we believe as yet without
success.
Owing to the small demand for
teaming, corn has been drug in
the market, and probably it will not
reach as high a price as was expect
ed.
There Is some prospects of build
ing church in this vicinity ere long.
This subject should be taken hold
Of and put through for it is some-
thing that we need. No town de-
notes prosperity, as a civilized CON-
munity, without respectable public
buildings.
It has been said without any
proof that Trenton would never car
ry on fifty thousand dollars worth of
mercantile business. Now if Tren.
ton increases at the same rate she
has been doing for the next five
years, we dare say there will be that
amount expended on this side, if not
double, unless the trade is taken
elswhere, say to Diamond Bluff or
Ellsworth, or, even better, if a bridge
is built giving an easy access to
Red Wing.
Our Sunday school has a new
library and our youth are taking the
advantage Of it, and are improving
their time reading it.
Although times are dull we could
not be blessed with pleasanter
weather and we must be content.
II we had large pile of wood we
would want it cold so as to burn it.

Kenyon Letter.

Kenyon Letter.
KENYON, Mimi, Jan. 21st, '76.
Ed Advauee::
: All the quill drivers of this little
place seem silent, either frightened
from the field by some of those gen.
tie damsels yclept Eumenides, or
perhaps feeling his or her own ina
bility to do justice to Kenyon and
its people.
Not being gossip and seeing but
little Of the ladies of this village,
my items will be lacking in details.
Changes are always taking place
here, as we'll as at more prominent
points. Mr.. H. H. Blinn, of ma
chine notoriety, has bought the Ken.
yon Hotel of the Slice Brothers and
intends, if can judge from very
slight acquaintance with him and
less still conversation, to keep a
first class village house, and the fact
its previous good name, while run
by Mr.. ]. Slice, will be no detriment
to its present proprietor From
what can be CLEANED, both in the
store of E. K. Marshall & Co. as
we'll as in Slice Bros, he starts in
with the best Of prospects.
MI. A. Hilton has sold out his
farm, and it is expected he will leave
here in the spring for California or
Oregon. Kenyon will lose one Of
her Oldest settlers and the Baptist
Church its firm and consistent sup
porter. I have no doubt but that
Mr.. HIS departure will be re-
gretted by a numerous circle Of
relatives and friends.
Among the most pleasant of
events that have taken place here,
at least it seems to be held so by
the Episcopalian Church members,
was a meeting Of the Episcopalians
and all that are friendly to that body,
1t the residence of Mr.. Alvin Bull
lis, for the purpose OF raising funds
or their minister, Rev. Geo. Du-
oois. It was merely token Of es-
:eem and appreciation Of his labors
n their midst. Mr.. Bulls is at pres

When this estimate was shown to the
directors it was returned to him with
orders to retouch it with higher colors
to put in embankments on paper where
none existed on earth. to make the old
embankments heavier, aud to increase
the expense generally; and their he was
requested to send in his estimate that 1t
would cost fifty thousand mile. When

ed by the Republicans.

New YORK, Nov. Il 1t seems very
certain that the Republican Canvassng
Board of South Carolina will count tha,
State for Hayes, and that Florida is
claimed by the same means. The result
now depends on the Returning Board OF
Louisiana. II the vote is counted as II
was cast, Tilden undoubtedly carries
the State. If the Dem cratic majorities
are thrown out on pretense Of intimida
ton of Republicans VINO did not vote
HAYES will have the State. @ ai
The Springfield Republican says oI
this: "Whaterer State laws may techni
cally allow the Returning Boards to do,
we doubt II the country will acquiesce
in President chosen by changes in TO-
cal returns of votes cast without know
ing which candidate will be chosen by
the vote We believe the great bulk OF
both parties are ready to agree in ad
vance that the one who received q ma.
jorily of the actual votes put into 'the
ballot-boxes Of any State should have
the vote of that State" The last three
lines are italicised by the Republican
which adds: "To 60 behind the ballot
boxes and change President is so deli
cate and so dangerous proceeding that
we doubt if any plausible grievance will
be accepted as justifying it."
