Brown. It is announced that. Mr 6. Thorp the well known lawyer of this city, has been appointed an inspector of postoffices in tbe northwest. Mr.

Tborp has been quite a prominent man in his time, having been in the state senate and occupied other positions of honor. He has filed his bonds with tbe Clerk of the Circuit Court at Kenosha, and they have been approved. The appointment is not one that commends the judgment ot tbe appointing power. Mr. Thorp is cer tainly poorly qualified for a position that' requires a clear business' head, sagacity and sharpness.

He cannot be said to possess any of these qualifications. Democrats are asking "who appointed him?" Nobody can be found to assume the responsibility for it, and there are few who undertake to offer an They all admit that the appointment casts dis credit upon the party. It is accounted for on tbe score of secret influence and leading Democrats are now endeavoring to discover if that influence reaches Col. Vilas or Gen. Bragg.

One or tbe other is bound to be damned by Racine Democrats. wm; r. brown. Wm. D.

mc skilled workman in advertis- The need of pure water in certain portions of tbe Second and Third wards, has long been felW During the past winter much sickness prevailed aad many deaths occurred, the principal diseases being scar-Jet ever, diphtheria and typhoid fever. The cause of tbe sickness has been traced mainly to impure water. Many wells were examined and the water found in a terrible condition. Property owners on College avenue have taken a step in' the right direction to remedy this evil and give the people oa the School Sectioo pure water. I Last evening a large number of property owners on College avenue, among whom were Hon.

Y. Quarks, county clerk E. C. Peck, 0. C.

Davis, Wm. Scott, Martin Clancy Geo. Teall and Edward Bu rbeck, met at the County Clerk's office in the Court House, and indulged in an informal talk with reference to organizing an artes ian well stock company, fwith a capital of $3,000. AH present favored the scheme and $4,000 stock hail already been pledged. It is proposed to sink the well at some point on CoUege avenue, and supply water to residents! on this avenue, park avenue and Wisconsin at a reasonable figure.

An effort will be made at once to secure the rijrbjt to lay mains through the above named streets and as soon as thU is accomplished and the balance ot $4,000 stock subscribed, work on the well will bo commenced. The' good and healthful equalities of artesian water were discussed at length atnd it was shown that in Kenosha a large number of persons had been sick with but not one where the artesian water was used. This project should be -encouraged by every property owner within the bounds of the district where it is proposed to establish the well. i MARINE, Lieutenant Rogers of the U. S.
