Upon the streets of Mankato was seen yes
terday the familiar face of Henry Shaubut,
Esq, who has been absent for the
past two months visiting southern points
among which Mexico came in for the larger
share OF attention. He reports Mexico
as a perfect elysum only needing
the people Of Blue Earth county to make it
perfectly charming. He saw grain on his
route in every stage of perfection, and
oranges and other tropical fruit likewise.
Mr.. Shaubut seemed, however, very much
pleased to be again at home among the
people he has been associated with so long.
Messrs. B. F. and H. S. Shaubut, who are

some 1900 head of one and two year olds,

stock region.
