A young gentleman yesterday
called at a shoe store in this city
and said he wanted to buy ring.
He said he wanted it for Il wedding
ring, and as it was to be used only
once, he desired to get as cheap an
article as possible. AT last accounts
he had been offered two for cent,
but we presume he is waiting till the
opening of navigation, in order TO
obtain one at the rate of about five
cents bushel.

tied Detroit and other places for the
purpose of advancing the interests
Of railroad along the shore to Al
pena, returned home last Saturday
evening. Mr.. Maltz feels. con fdent,
after having conversations with some
Of the leading railroad men Of the
country, that if Alpena anil the
other towns along the shore, will
come up literally with cont ribu-
tons, there is no doubt that by the
first day Of January, 1882, a rail
road along the shore to Alpena will
be in running operation. There be,
gins to be some desire among rail-
road men to have "a road connecting
Detroit with Bay City and the shore
towns to the straits, and as Bay City
is already connected with Detroit,
it looks as if the time was near at
hand when some road must ex-
tend up the shore, and thus make a
connecting link with the upper PEN
insula. As the matter now stands,
nothing definite can be said, but it
is thought that during the next two
weeks something to the point will be
learned, and that it will not be long
before we know whether we are to
have q railroad, or whether it is
"more talk than cider" 1t certain
ly looks at present as if it were rail
road, and we sincerely hope that
such is the case.
As we are situated at present we
are shut out from the balance of the
world, so to speak, for at least six
months of the year, and during that
six months not dollars worth of
the enormous amount of the tim
Der and salt manufactured on the
shore can be shipped or disposed of
to advantage, whereas, with rail
road, lumber, and salt could be
shipped and the money therefor used
to advantage, at any time during
any portion of the year. And again
if there were facilities for transpor-
tation the year round, there would
be many more manufacturing es-
Establishments III our midst, the towns
on the shore would increase rapidly
in population, the farming commu-
nifty would fill up much faster, the
manufacturers of lumber could and
doubtless would, add planning and
other machinery to their mills, in
order that they might ship the pro-
ducts Of the country in an already
manufactured condition, and thus
realize greater profits from their bus
mess. In fact railroad would, in
our opinion, open up the country to
many little manufactures and en-
terprises that are now necessarily
crowded out because there is no one
that wishes to lay out too much of
their means and then run the risk
of getting it back next season.
