4 spirit of restlessness has placed It's
trembling hands upon the shoulders OF a
few moneved men in this town, and they
are beginning to look about them for means

Manning, aS long as she depends entirely
upon an agricultural support cannot make
as rapid strides towards population and
wealth, as if she had other sources and
means to support her A town dependent
entirely upon the products Of the farm
must cling, more or less, to the credit syS-
tem:a system which is snail-like IN its
movements, ald in this day Of rush and
push, it is run over and outdistanced, be-

ness men are wanting to induce others to
