FROM BLlNCHARDvIlLE.

For the first time in the annals of
our town the supervisors have refused
to grant license, but as the village ad-
joins the town of Moscow, where Ii
cense was readily obtained. an enter
priSing citizen took advantage of the
situation, and it is surprising to see
how many of our neighbors have be-
come inspired with the idea that brief
walk in the country is good for the
health. and what is still more singular
they all take the same road.
A serious runaway occurred here a
few days ago. in which a valuable horse
belonging to Matthias Hoffman of Wald-
wick was killed and James Ingwell of
Moscow was seriously, though fortu-
nately not fatally injured. The affair
is to be litigated in the courts.
The people of this vicinity will cele-
brate the approaching fourth midway
between this place and Moscow. r
Scott AnSley, of Mineral Point, will
deliver the Grafton. Great prepara-
tions are being made, and grand time
is anticipated.
Our hourishing village is putting on
metropolitan airs, being now lit up by
street lamps set upon eastiron posts.
Senator Adams and wife, of Black
Earth, were in town yesterday, the
guests of A. Blanchard.
Several Mineral Pointers have re-
Gently been here on business, among
them Lawyers Ansley and McIlhon
and Toay, Suthers, Ferris, Maloney and
c. A. Blanchard.
The public school is taught by Miss
Annie Miller, Monroe lady. The at
tendance is unusually large.
Some of the farmers who planted
corn several weeks ago are now look
ing through a microscope to see if they
can find it.
Regretting that can furnish moth
ing more of interest will close.
