While going home from New Ulm
the other day, met a prairie schoon-
.er at the crossing of the "Little Cot
5tonwood, below Schloman's old place.
Before going down the steep embank-
ment which leads down to the river,
the captain went over to examine the
bridge which has not been travelled
for some time, he was soon convinced
that the bridge, like shallow waters,
was not navlgable for his heavy laden
vessel; shaking his head and at the
same time uttering few incompre-
hensiye sentences he returned to his
schooner, and while going down the
steep embankment, one of his horses
went headlong into the river, coming
very near breaking its neck. This un.
pleasant occurrence, however, gave
the captain chance to make free use
of the .sPilots Prayers by cursing
and swearing at the management Of
the county, which could not afford to
keep the bridges in travelling condi-
ton. I told him chat the bridge was
never built at the expense of the
county, but by a single township; be-
side this, the same town had built two
other bridges, OF similar size, further
|up the river, at their own EXPENSE
and now the bridges are getting sha-

cling public will have to do the eros.
sing in the best possible manner. At
ter the horse was replaced on to his
feet again, and no visible harm done,
the captain somewhat quieted down
and said it was a foolish idea for a
township to build and maintain such
expensive bridges without getting aid
| from the county. / said the town au-
thorities have several times made ap-
plications before the County Board.
but have so far proved to be OF no
avail. And thus the matter stands at
the great Inconvenience for the public.
II is an indisputable fact, that the
lsroad on which this bridge is located is
lone Of the most travelled highays in
the county,, as farmers from the vi
lcinity Of Madelia and Lake Crystal
have OF late years hauled their produce
