LAUNCH-A small, but handsomely
built, tug boat, bearing the name of
81. Richards, was launched on Mon
day last. We believe she is owned by
Messrs. Richards and Packard, and
will be used in our river and harbor.
We hope she'll pay.
OUR HARBOR-I seems that the bill
for the improvement of our Harbor in
troduced by Mr.. Villas in the Senate,
passed that body, but was defeated in
the Assembly. We have not heard
the particulars of, the cause of the de-
feat, but we have good reason to be-
lieve that when proper bill is pre-
sented to the people Of this county, it
will receive their appreciation. The
farmers are getting their eyes open to
this subject, and no longer propose to
lose 10 and II cents per bushel on their
wheat for want of harbor.
A New BUsINEss-A branch of
business which Manitowoc has long
needed has been started here recently.
We refer to machine for planning
flooring, siding, etc., and other ma.
chinery for manufacturing sesh, doors
and blinds. The proprintors are Messrs.
Dumpke, Esslinger aid SAM, whose
shop is located in Esslinger's old ware
house.

large quantity of maple sugar has been
made in the county the present spring.
