The Latest from Peru.

A dispatch from Lima, Peru, says: THE
contribution of 100000 recently referred to still
remains unpaid, and the ChiIians are satisfied
there is no money in the country with which to
meet the demand unless foreign houses supply it.
Lima is quiet, thanks to the bayOnets of the con-
querors. Their patrols guard the streets, and ad-
minister summary punishment to offenders. Re-
Gently party of armed Cinnamon fired on the

A TrrIR BILL

Not one American woman in twenty
five can walk five miles," says an English
physician. Perhaps So" says the Portland i'd
uertiser; but that, if true is chiefly because the
average American woman has other work to do
which does not leave her much surplus strength
When the American woman can get a slave to
do her housework for her at $40 or $50 year. as the
English woman can, the latter will have nothing
to boast of in the way of superior vigor or activity

his Government was more a deep reverence for
that power in whose service he had fought and
whose name and fame had been his joy from child
hood, than an ordinary sense of attachment. With
a lofty and stern enthusiasm, but without bitter
ness of heart he struck the rebellion its hardest
blows, and gave his name to immortality in the
restoration OF the American Union. The eoncep-
ton and the execution of Farraguts expedition up
the Mississippi River were fatal to the cause of
Southern independence. The power which holds
the mastery of that mighty stream will hold an un
broken union of States from the lakes to the Gulf
in spite of all sectional antagonisms. Jefferson
foresaw its necessity to united and prosperous
country when in 1SO3 and under threats ofimpeach-
ment, he purchased Louisiana from the great
Napoleon. When Farragut passed the Forts
Jackson and st. Philip and anchored before
New Orleans nineteen years ago to-day, he was
executing the craftsmanship of Thomas jefferson,
which had declared that no foreign government
should ever share the Mississippi river with the
Governments OF the United States; that its bosom
and its banks belonged to u.s. and that its waters
should continue forever to flow to the sea unvexed
by custom houses and undisturbed by the keels
of foreign crafts. And it appears as one of the
compensations OF time and history that the system
of gunboats, so much denounced and derided in
Jeffersons administration, was conspicuous in re-
storing the Mississippi to the protection of the
American flag. But why dwell in this presence
upon the war for the possession ofthe
FATHER OF WATERS?
Why recount the glories and the dangers of the
forts of New Orleans and of Vicksburg on this oc-
casion? Why tell of the dread magnifcence of
Mobile Bay to those who are listening to me now?
see many here who were in the fame and smoke
of those terrific conflicts, and whose names will
descend to posterity with that of their great COM
mander. They saw him at his best; they saw him
with the light of battle in his face; they saw
him intrepid in action and humane in victory:
they saw his scorn for personal danger and heard
his orders given with coolness and precision when
alot in the rigging of his ship, under
fire as strong and as accurate as ever
assailed q feet. 1 am speaking to those
who were with him from the beginning

could join Porter on the quarter deck for con-

springing up the hatchways; he heard the roar
of powder explosions below, and then only he
heard the order to cease the unequal fight and
with bitter tears and choking sobs, as he has him
self recorded, he saw the flag of his country low
cred to the calculating and ungenerous foe.
What a school of instruction for one
whose last birthday marked but twelve years

to read that when Porter returned to New York
great ovation sprang up in his honor, the people
went wild over his splendid fame, unhitched the

FENyIMORE's RECORD.
Great and Growing-Whole Farms
Swallowed mp I'm Business Blocks.

The change time has wrought in the
town of Fennimore is truly wonderful.
1t is now one of the attractive string
towns of Grant County. During the
past summer fifteen buildings have been
completed. The desirable situation of the
town insures its rapid growth, and the
industry and thrift of its business men
will make it a prosperous town. At
present, the town has three hotels where
stranger wants are attended to in first
class style; they are as follows: The
Central House, proprietor w. S. Shears;
Varrel House, proprietor Hi. Varrel;
the Railroad House with j. Perkins as
proprietor. Dry goods stores are kept
by j. S. Block, Oswald d Shuttleworth
and w. l.. Hicks. Two harness shops
kept by w. II. Pedicard and j. Deane
j. Allen S furniture store is kept in good
order, as is G. r. Coolies who has very
nice assortment in the furniture line
Butcher shops are under the care of
Popejoy and Breckley. l.. Fisher and
b. Neihaus understand blacksmithing
and can at any time give sample of good
workmanship. Roab e. Perkins keep
full stock of hardware to be sold at bot
tom prices. Three handsome hardware
stores just completed and stocked with
an immense quantity of hardware by
Shrader &c Steuart adds greatly to the
town. The druggists are w. L. Brown
and Farnham. We are well supplied
with doctors, three in number, Wolfe
Pickard and Brown. Our one shoe
maker is w. Weaver. The men whose
names are found in your business calen-
dar, are each and all worthy of their
calling.
One case of diptheria and two of
measles is the extent of sickness at
present.
The High School with Clyde Showalter
as Principal. is in a flourishing condi-
ton, numbering about fifty. The Prim-
airy department with Miss s. Laird as
teacher number over sixty.
Sleighing is delightful, SO the young
folks think, and they are improving it.
1t is not quite so pleasant however, for
two immense loads of merry young
folks, who happen to be racing, to be
suddenly enveloped in snow drifts,
obliging them to back for considerable
distance in order to proceed at all Such
is the case we are told. Beware of snow
drifts girls, and boys don't be so busily
engaged as not to see mountain ahead.

BOSCOBEI..

New Central House-ESogs and

Boscobel Jan. oath, 1881.
We have had practical illustration
of the effect of alcoholic stimulants upon
the human system. Some of our over
the-river customers INDUCED a little too
freely in the cup that cheers and ine-
briates. Their actions furnished amuse-
ment for the small boys and afforded
material for many temperance lecture.
One mans moral perceptions became
so blunted that he calmly appropriated
some of the paraphernalia of another
sled. An incipient quarrel was brewing
when our Marshall accidentally strayed
near and by his commanding presence
quelled the disorder. 1t required con-
siderable diplomacy to remove the con-
midst, but our modern Machiaveli ac-
complished the feat without recourse TO
the power of the law.
There has been much trouble of late in
regard to the trains. Accidents and
storms have so delayed them that they
are rarely on time. Very frequently in
the Post Office one hears savage attacks
on the Company for the delay in the
mails; but it is noticeable fact that in
a majority of cases the complaint comes
from those who receive no mail on any
occasion.
Notwithstanding the severity of the
winter, our schools are well attend
ed and appear to be in a prosperous
condition. The measles are prevalent
to some extent among the children but
we have heard of no very severe cases.
J. K. Muffiey has been suffering quite

Yesterday a team belonging to MIR.
Jackson became frightened at something
and ran away. No one was hurt and
out little injury done.
A large force of men is now employed
on the Central House. Some arc carting
away the debris of the fire, and others
preparing the timbers for the interior.
Should the weather be favorable the
building win be ready for occupation
about the first of May.
The excellent sleighing continues and
farmers are improving the opportunity
to bring their produce into town. Load
after load of wood is hauled on the
streets to be Immediately purchased by
the citizens. In the early part OF the
winter there was a great scarcity of fuel

famine. Stock buyers report business
good in their department and this
Is confirmed by the cattle and hogs
which are daily taken through the city.
Perhaps however, the greatest activity
is seen ia the dry-goods and grocery
stores. Food and warm clothing are SO
necessary that all must buy, and when
the mercury registers below zero the de-
mand is immense.
Poverty is with us, yet few if any are
suffering. Charity is profuse, and the
sufferer has but to make his condition
known to have ready friends step for
ward to his relief.
