W. @reen Continues the Narrative 7 .ef Hiis Western Tour. - j MINNEAPOLIS, June 21, 1876. | Tomy Friends at Ligonter: o . OnThursday morning, the 15th inst., ' Ibid adieu to my friends at Remington and started westward, through a fne prairie -country. The prairies were high, rich and fertile, ahd as far as the eye eould carry you could see _#elds tesming with corn, oats, flax and ‘grass. Some of the grass was tame - and some In Its native statd, but all looking well and promising an abundant crop. - The towns along this line of road have been built up rapidly and consist almost ex¢lusively of frame buildings.. - But there seems fo be something neat and tidy about them, with their wide streets and beautiful shade trees. ' Folks in the prairie country appraeciate shade trees a great ~deal more thayr we do in the timber regions. - :Almost the first thing the farmer plants around his dwelling (as well as the townsman) is a grove of ~ forest trees, doubtless for: shelter and protection against the stromg winds which prqvail here. But let the object be what it may, this planting of trees makes the country,’ as. well as towns, more attractive. : “After crossing the State llne, Into li%idois, the prairie seems to ‘be ' much lower and. less adapted to the raising ~of grain. Herding seems to be the principal business here, Large droves of eatile can. be seen on every hand, some in enclosures and others under she supervision of a herdsman, who can be seen riding back and-forth, | with a ‘dog by his’ side, keeping the stock within a certain range. ;

I reached Watseka a little before 12 oclock. This is the county seat of * Iriquois county, and is a town of from | ' 2,000 t 0 2,500 inhabitants, with a splen- ~ did'court house and a‘fine high-school - building, this lafter something similar tothe one now building at Ligo- ~ nier. The town is nicely laid out, - with wide streets and beautiful shade _ trees, and has some very fine brick store rooms and residences. At this place I took dinner. I was notable +- to eat much, however, as I was suffer- " ingfroma severe headache, ciused by . aDilious attack, .At 1253 .., though. - “suffering much, I left Watseka, on the . Chicago, Danville & Vincennes road, .~ for Chicago, distant eighty-five miles. 7 Just as I took a eat in the car I | disco¥ered that there. was a storm - coming up, and in a very short time the rain began to descend as tliough “.the windows of heaven - had' been opened and all let out at once. Soon * the water began to run over the floor ~‘of the car, and the country looked - Like one vast sea of water, there being no cessation for four long hours. We ~ reached Chicago, however, without “accident, at 5:48 in the evening. i A great deal of rain had fallen here, so that everything was muddy, even _\;in the great city. . I here called upon G Dodg. and family (relatives of my late deceased wife), who gave me ‘a greeting, Y did not intend than until 9: 45, at whioh time the train leaves for St. Paul and Minneapolis, buy owin~ * iy ULhelth T ro--- s

i ;'1 S . —aigy VO . ~waained until morn—sg. - Then Mr, Dodge took me in his carriage, up Wabash avenue and thro’ some of the best portions of the city to the depot of the Milwaukee, Saint Paul & Chicago railroad. ‘We reached the depot just fifteen - minutes ahead of traintime. '~ i/ :

I had proeured my ticket and just got cleverly seated in the sleeping car, when the conductor sang out, “All aboard!”. a.ndm'gg Were 500 n On our way, sailing thréugh as fine a tract of -country as ever man laid eyes upon. And as I looked out upon thosé fine farms, with everything it seemed that heart ¢ould wish, I almost wished that I, too, was & granger, like my friend Stoll. Surely, the people need’ not have any fears of starvation with such prospects for abundant crops on every hand. Even the prospect for 'Milwaukep beer is flattering, as the immense Ihpp yards all around that city bid fair for an abundant yield. - We took dinner at Milwaukee, at the Railroad Eatigg House, and a better dinner I never/sat down to. The whole topic of ‘conversation was the ‘probable result of the Cincinnati con~vention; who would be the lucky ‘man? Blaine seemed to be the fa* 'vorite, 8o far as I could learn. - Dinner over, we again started on our-way, fecling seme better. At this

place Gov. Washburne boarded the

~~train, enroute for Minneapolis, where ' * bhe owns two mills, He is a man of medium height, Héavy built, with a - fine physiognomy; the very picture of health, and & man that would attraet ones i::ltenﬁow‘at%once, without having ha my"know-f%'gé of his anteced- " ents. Leaving Milwaukee we passed

through quite a scope of fine farming ieountry, more kike the Hawpatch than any we have gegn since leaving home, abounding with fine fields of' wheat and other grain. - But as we neared

Portage City the country became hilly, Wwith large bluffs on ‘either side, the road-bed being through a valley. As the sun was going down beneath the western ihills, 1§ presented a grand scene, ‘Td look over those majestic -bluffs, towerlng up hundreds of feet sbove us, eovered with rich foliage to their very summits, presents a picture #ruly sußlime. Some of them are in the shape of #n urm standing alone, ﬁ'ﬁ to.onethoughts that vw# - lead him to exclaim;: “How greafl are

~thy works, oh God! how excellent in 4l the earth is thy name. Thou who “Hast moulded and fashionedall things - for the good and happiness of all thy ~creatures, How beautiful are all thy works in all the earth. Let all the . earth and all that is in 1t glorify thy " ¥nost excellent name,” ’ .

Nightcoming on, we were stowed ~ ‘away in our berth, expecting as day ' . ddawned toget into §t. Paul. But im- - agi 0 our surprise on waking up, to since f‘wgn o'clock in a lopely, dismal place, swamps on either side of ' #he frack, éight miles from LaCross

and~6ne hundréd and thirty-seven miles from Minneapolis, with a freight train in front of us and another in the rear. Two freight cars, loaded with _wheat, had their trucks broken down 'and had to:be removed before we ‘eould pass. It only took twelve hours to get them out of the way. A farmer, living about a mile off, supplied us’ with breakfast, which consisted of hard-boiled eggs, biscuit and a cup of tea. But the passengers all seemed to relish the meal, and all got well acquainted. Vatious parts of the Union were represented. There were ‘persons present from Massachusetts, Connecticut, Maine, Wisconsin, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio and: Minnesota. Noon' came, and the train again moved forward, to the gratification of ‘all on board. i >SN

The country from LaCross te St. | Paul is very- broken, and as far as we could see is not adapted to farming. But we should think this would be a good country for sheep raising. We crossed the Mississippi twice, at LaCross and at-Hastings. It s a grand sight: N 5 et anaas ’ Before reaching St. Paul, I got a glimpse of Fot Snelling, which stands upon & bluff several hundred feet high, upon -an Indian reservation. Troops are stationed here, and seeing ,the "blue uniforms calls to mind old times, I intend to make a visit to the Fort before leaving this place, when 1 will tell you more about it. I reached Minneapolis at six o’clock in the afternoon, instead of morning, butfound- L. H. ready to conduct me to his domicile. Governor Washburns, my brother and myself rode up’together in the same hack. Conversation was at once opened as to the nominations made. The Governor gave it as his opinion that it was a wise chojce. He said he was personally acqualnted with Gov, Hayes. Ar'riving at the home of-my brother, I ' was welcomed by my sister-in-law and Charley Braden, who thinks he hasgrown much better-looking since he left Ligonier., They tell me the climate has' much to do with ones:-looks out here. I would therefore advise all the ~homely Hoosiers to emigrate to this place. -~ . P :

I have visited a gréat many places of interest since my arrival, a description of ‘which I will give. you in.my ‘next. I mustnot forget to say, how--ever, that we took tea with Mr. W, S. Best and his most estimable lady last evening. ' They have a fine residence ‘on Park Avenue, costing $B,OOO. . Mr. -Best is doing husiness at Alexandria, about 150 miles north 'of this place, He .is doing- well. To" say he is a’ shrewd trader and good business man, will not.express it. NS i I shall not be able to ‘go to St. Louis | in time for the National Democratic Convention, on account of my health, but will leave this place some time next week for Dubuque, lowa,.by water, and from there will take the ears for Philadelphia. You may expect to hear from me again as I go Eastward. Yours Truly, ~ D.W. GREEN.

Wanted a ¥arm. ) : A Detroit real estate agent was waited on the other day by a tall man with a weed in his hat, who- said«he had cash to pay for a farm if -hed%oul’d get- one: to suit.

He had several farms registered on his ‘books, and he had no doubt that he could suit the Eonl_d be purchaser, The stranger remarked: , - - ) : ..

The stranger drew a long breath, ‘and then went on: 2N ‘T want a farm of three: hundred acres, but one hundred acres must be marsh lands. : . Here she is, was the ready reply. Just three hundred acres in the farm, and just one hundred ih marsh land. I must have-a water-fall twenty-six feet high on the farm, continued the stranger. N ' Here you are.

; - | Modern Women. It is/a sad commentary upon our boasted civilization that the women of our times have degenerated in healt and physique until they are literally a race of invalids—pale, nervous, féeble and baek-achy, with only here and there a few noble exceptions in the persons of the robust, buxom ladiescharacteristic- of the sex in: the days gone by.

When Stonewall Jackson came running in, crving as. though his heart would break, anddt(ﬁd hﬁg;;thathßill ‘Br&yg: had slapped him for nothing. ; Jones 'm?\?%r said a WOrdg'bitt she grit her teeth hard, and went into the house to cut cabbage, and chopped it so fine, thinking it was Bill Brown’s head, that you might have sifted it l through a cob-web.: While Jones sat eating his dinner in the evening, Mrs. Jones told him of the outrage that had been committed, and asked what he was going to do aboutit. Jones pondered. .~ Billy Brewn. was fully ‘twertty-one years old, a shining light in the fire department, pitcher in a base ball club, and had the ‘general Teputation among” experts as being a “good man.” After considering these things carefully, Jones came to the conclusion that the best course to pursue was “to treat Brown with isilent contempt,” and so he told his wife, adding, by way of parenthesis, “my ic:l_ear, such cattle are beneath our noice.” & - : :

“All right, Mr. Jones,” said Mrs. Jones, “if youwre not man enough to protect your family, thank God! I’ve got a brother,” and she swept from the -room: with a look that Jones knew only too well. He had seen that same look on his wife’s'face once be-, fore, ‘when he brought a friend home ‘todinner on washing-day, and he knew it meant war. There was no help for it; it ‘flashed upon. Jones with the swiftness of lightning; there-would be no peace in the Jones family until the ingult’ of the morning had ‘been wiped out. with blood. © . - |

, That night the boys-were all sitting in a neighboring beer saloon, and its genial proprietors was telling them what he would du if g 20t tlie nomination for Alderman. . This gentleman, whonm we will call Mike, because that was not his name, was an exprize fighter, ‘could barely write his name;-and was in many othér respects especially qualified for an Alderman. He kept.good beer, and offered it with that lavish liberality and recklessness of expenditure for ‘which Vicksburgh candidates are famous. Jones came in, took his pro rata of beer and sat himself down. to meditate, upon the Brown affair. At last a happy idea seemed to strike him; hé eatled for another “shoo fly,”. and rubbed 'his hands and slapped his knees in gleeful -anticipation. ' ; At last he said to Mike with ™ careless air, “Mike, is Bill Brown one of your supporters 9 . | ‘ “You can just bet’your moneymuck: on that,” says Mike, “there’s a boy 1 do stand sbld with.,”- N e “That’s strange,” said Jones. - “What’s strange,” said Mike,. with that uneasy, suspicious air so common among candi[]ates. S v . | “Oh,, Tnothing,” said Jones, mysteriously; “I don’t think I had ought to tell.” g g ; “Jones,” said Mike, solemnly, “it [ you're a friend of mine you’ll tell.” “Well, I will,” said Jones, “but you must keep it confidential.”

“All right; go ahead,” said Mike, ‘anxiously. . : “Well,” said Jones, “I‘just came from the Centennial bar-room, and heard Brown ' say that you didn’t know your head from a shot-gun; ‘that he caught you one day ‘reading a newspaper upside down; that he’d sooner vote for the lowest down nigger in the ward than vote for you, and that if you were elected city serip would go down to 5 cents on the dollar, and taxes go up so high you couldn’t reach them with a balluon:” Mike puat on his hat and coat and made a bee line for the %entennialf bar-room. ‘ ‘

INsTINCT OR REASON.—AS a farmer in a neighboring town'was getting in his hay, he noticed an unusual commotion -among the ‘swallows, which had built a long row of ‘nests

under the eaves of his barn. They appeared greatlysexcited, flying rapidly abeut, and ﬁlli}xg the air with their cries of distress. As the load of hay upon which he was riding passed into the barn, he saw,that a young swallow in'a nest directly over the door had caught its neck in a. crack between two shingles and was unable to liberate itself. He stopped: his team and set the young bird free, restoring it to the nest. Upon his return_to the barn with his next load of hay, noticing that the swallows were quiet, he examined the crack and found that they had filled it completely with mud, so that no matter how enterprising or how foolish the young swallow might be, he could not again endanger his life or the peace of that community by any experiments upon that crack.—Our Dumb Animals.

e . Too Fast. ko In our day; both married and single people live too fast. A bachelor now has need of an income such as would once have satisfied a man with a family; and the husband and father requires for his single household the means that twenty years ago would have supported two families, if not three. Daughters are sent to fashionable sehools at an enormous cost, there to learn extravagance, and, in short, to become the wives of poor men.— Sons are ruined with unlimited pocket money; late hours, and almost total absence of paternal control. Thus we not only ‘waste our estates, but perpetuate the vice in our children. In eve ery way we are living too fast. f L e—— “—James Buchanan struck Andrew Johngon with & club the other day in Chicago, SAo ;The peach griglnally emq from

e~ Don’t Judge by Appearances. A sharp trick that was, as told to us last evening, which occurred day before yesterday i-ntat%alo?il %{n this citly"i We are told that the trick is an old one, intrggﬁcgg to ﬂ?iscguntrv from across the big pond. On the day in question a flashily.dressed fellow entered the saloon referred to, called for a cock-tail, and then took a seat at a table, read the papers awhile, dnd then fell asleep. Presently two men entered, who, after taking a drink, seated themselves at an adjoining table, and engaged in conversation about ; Some property one was evidently trying to sell the other. In the course of a half hour there were some three or four other arrivals, when one:of the first mentioned two gents addressed his' friend in a voice that could be heard by all: “If I ‘was -that gent I wouldn’t sleep in a saloon: it isn’t quite safe with all that jewelry on his person.” ' The sleeping gent had one of those heavy gold neck chains, with a massiVe' slide, and, judging from that, he must have had a valuable gold watch attached to it. The other made answer. “Qh, I guess it's snide; or very likely he 'l_]as only an oroide

watch.,” And in a playful manner he proceeded to gently draw what ought to.be the watch from the sleeper’s Pocket. This of course attracted the attention ‘of the others in. the barroom, and one of them asked himif he was acquainted with ithe gentleman asleep. -He answered, “N 0, but I want to see what time it is.” 7ln place of a wateh it'turned out to be a nicely polished piece of wood, made in the shape of a wateh. " When it was exposed to view of scourse’ there was a general laugh, which woke up the gentleman, and he was grected on all sides with, “My friend what time is it ?” 4Nice watch, that, you carry!” ete. Seéming not to understand their questions, he placed his hand over his pocket, and feeling that evervthiho

was all right, simpi’y@ rem‘arkea',?“genstlemen my watch has run down.” This, of - course, only renewed the laughter on the part of the crowd, when the gentleman: who made the exposure offered to bet $lO that there, was not a watch key in jthe city that would fit that watch of, liis. Another offered to bet $lO more that he didn't have a_watch, when the gent indig-nantly-said ‘he did if he was not robbed while he slept,-and: that he would take that bet. While taking out his pocket book, two “or three others offered to bet $lO more ‘to 85 the same way. All the bets were very, coolly taken, the mioney deposited in the hands of the very gentleman who extracted the wooden model from the sleeper’s pocket, and then he was asked to show the watch. e very deliberately pulled: out the piece of polished wood attached to the chain, and to'claim their'bets; he very coolly sdid: “hold on, gentlemen, you haven’t seen the watch as yet,”and touching ‘& spring 1n the side the model flew open, revealing as nice aj little, gold “watch inside as youever saw. Ashe turned and held out his hand for the stakes, which he stowed away in his -pocket, he remarked that « itis always a losing game to judge by appearances.” It is hardly necessary to say that the two gentlemen first referred to were accomplices with the owner of the watch in this clever trick.— Davenport Democrat, * oA )

The Evil Fruits of Weak Digestion. | Thereis' no pathological fact more clearly ascertained thedh that the most formidable phases of nervous disease are directly traceable to imperfect di- { gestion. Jlnsomnia, with its train of direful consequences, proceeds ‘more | frequently from. weakness of the stomach than' from'any other cause.
