J. W. Hutchinson Son stock of Books, Stationery. Pictures and like goods, and has also rented the Haw ley store, one aide of which he will occu py and continue the handsome trade his predecessors. Mr.

Himebangh is wel known to most of onr citizens as a young man of thoroaeh integrity, good ness ability, reliable and gentlemanly in his intercourse with' the public, and we bespeak for him a cordial reception at. the hands of the people of Appleton. Be has returned to make his stay permanent and if strict attention to business wsll assure success, he means to hare; it Our best wisnes attend mm in hi new business enterprise. He will doubtless occupy Jus new store within ten days or thereabouts. Mr.

W. Hutohinson, the managin me and active member of the firm of 3. W. Hutchinson Son, ought to remain in townrM we trust he will, and engage in some other business. We can ill af- afiCbrd to lose him from our business cir cles being untiring in energy, with not a lazy bone in nis body.

He is worth dozen cords of drones and sleepy-heads to any it'rtf town," being an constituted that be may wear out but never rust out. We trust to continue to number him yet for years as one or Appleton most stir- nns'j'wide-awake business men alwavs Ibeaa above water, blow the winds high Or low. During the last ten days arrangements have been pending between Mr? Griswold and Mr. P. Stevens Mr com bine, terminating in a firm' connection between the gentlemen, who have also purchased the jewelry and silver stock of Messrs.

J. W. Hutohinson Son, which together with Mr. Griswold's stock will make the largest and rarest stock in town. This firm will occupy one side of the Hawley Store, now occupied by Clark Edwards, where they will be pleasantly located, and both of the firm being prac tical Jewelers can not fail to do a hand' some business, As the jeweler business was overdone in town, the union of these two establishments 'will prove of financial advantage to all concerned.

Messrs. Clark' fc Edwards' have very fortunately rented 1 the Hutchinson Store, which, within ten days they will occupy with their stock of Dry Goods. For a long time past, the proprietors have realized that the Hawley store was entirely too limited in capacity for their constantly growing and enlarging business; therefore they were most fortunate in securing the new locality, so well adapted for their business. Here they will be able to and handle their stock to greater advantage, without' being orowded so badly as has been the case with them in the old store. The Hutchinson store will be painted up nicely and Clark Edwards will doubtless "be able to receive their large, num ber of friends and customers within the time stated.

In the mean previous to removal, we understand that they will have a clearing sale, for the benefit of the public. Mr. H. Phianey hashis spring stock of cloths and ctething now opened for the inspection of his army of cus tomers His oloths are really splendid and if Mr. Boyce can't fit you, then it, will be needless to try elsewhere.

Mrt John Powers has bought out Mr. Case's interest inthe Appleton Marble works, and will continue the business. The establishment is proving to be a success, its' orders for work keeping quite a force of workmen busy. We noticed a handsome monument there for the late Mr. Bleik, of Greenville, which when finished will be a fine piece of work.

It will be nearly eloven foet high a creditable piece of workmanship and skill. Mr. T. C. Powers a brother of the proprietor, does the finest choice work, and- has the best of taste.

He did his part well but inasmuch as he was only an attache to the exhibition proper, we trust he will not feel slighted with a necessarily brief passing notice.

We were nigaiy enter tained. In fact we could not help be otherwise but so, for this really was the the finest exhibition we remember ox in the history of this society for a number of years There was also the advantage of an exceeding fftpe evening, a well filled chapel, as wVu as tolerable good attention though this latter part of the remark is capable ot considerable modi fication especially for the latter part of A A.

Happily we could not say ought but good of them to-night if we wanted to. Music for this occasion was furnished by a auartette of ladies Consisting of isses Birge, Hay Morey and Putney with Miss Angell at the piano. This part of the programme is the always necessary accompaniment to a suc cessful exhibition, ana after tne audience had been soothed by the melody of the first piece Rev. Mr. Tilton offered prayer.

Miss Batch the president, then into duced the first speaker of the eventn Miss Fannie I. Kennish, who with her modest yet bewitching little figure then stepped upon the rostrum alone and sa uted us in behalf of the society, she said a great many pretty things in nice poetical kind of a way: told of Athena of old; inspired her society associates and also had a good word to ay for her sister and brother societies. The old stereotyped "very good' comes in with its full meaning and we are rierht clad for an ODDOrtnnitv to use it without the usual test as to elasticity of conscience etc- as is customary on such occasions. But whoever would have thought even from reading the ponderous subject attached to the name of Miss Minnie B. Rogers that that lit tle lady-like body would have dared to mount the rostrum and boldly talk on Co-education as she did She evidently had studied the subject well and; she discoursed in such an argumentative: and yet pleasant style, without any1 attempt at flighty rhetoric that many of those of more pretensions had better look well to their laurels lest they be outstriped by their new competitor in the art forensie.

We often see! two un riding om horse, but vhnvM man attempts to ride two horses there comes in an exhibition of skill rarely attained. If you ever untertook to estimate the probabilities in the case, supposing for instance One of the horses should veer to one side or stumble and fall, you proba bly can appreoiate.the trying position of the three judges who sat down to weigh the arguments on tue following momentous question as-presented on the AS. by Jktiss JSmma Amlon and on tue Neg. by Miss Maud Dillon: "Resolved, that Sewing Machines are of more benefit to the world than Lightning Rods." The judges evidently were told; but the two A. M's took shelter beneath the protecting wings the learned D.

It was ably argued on both sides and the speaker evidently 'was well We, ourselves, were Considerably interested, and when Emma finished would have given hef the question without further discussion but Maud so completely exposed the fallacy of her position that we immediately changed our mind from a sewing machine to a lights ning rod, and then when Emma closed we thought that both had won, and were only relieved from onr responsibil- Lity when the dicision "was rendered in V.

when the Tillage of New London was laid out into blocks, lots and streets, land was so very scarce and dear, that the proprietors could not afford to give more than 60 feet wide to the nee of the public. The result is, that there is not a street in the -village more than 60 feet wide. Another: damaging effect from the scarcity of land at that time ia that we have no public park whatever. Some of housebuilders have been generous enough to set their build ings two or three feet back from the street, bat even tben. witn a aide waix ten or twelve feet wide on each' side of the street, we have bat forty feet for teams, which is entirely 'inadequate, even now for the transaction of the bus iness en onr principal We have abundance of streets, such as they are.

andrif our worthy land proprietors had given us only two thirds as many, and made them a third wider, then we would have ttad streets wide enough for busi ness and also wide enough, for shade There is a good prospect now of bridge across Wolf river at North port. which will much facilitate travel from here westward. With good dra bridge across the Wolf at Northport, another at StepLnsville, and a good graveled road fro.a Stepbensville to Northport by the war of New London, on the north side of the and we will be well satisfied to hr.ye the! county buildings removed from -Waupaca to Northport. The Court House would then be reached from here in two miles "and a quarter, which is all our folks ougnt to ask for. Mud is fast taking the place of snow and ice.

The ice in the river begins to give way, and the prospect now is, that navigation will open on tne river muco earlier than usual. LAEBS. ry The narrow street mania is one of the afflictions bequeathed to Appleton. We hope to see some of our streets north of the railway track widened at least to ighty feet, aud have not abandoned the hope that the width of Second Avenue will be fixed at one hundred feet.

Wake- mizld, then a farmer in the town of Greenville, aud one of the pioneers in the wilderness Wakefield 'post office was named in his honor, and while he lived in this county he was held in high esteem by all who knew him. For many years past, he has revided. atFremont, Waupaca county, and being an educat ed gentleman, ndded the profession of the law to bis Other calling.

And yet, but a week ago the New London Time regretfluly declared that "Wakefield is good fellow, but don't kan much about farming Undoubtedly' the Timet takes its cue from that class of far mera who are "down on book larnin," who don't take a pesky papers" and who don't know anything better than to vote the "Republican'' ticket. In this con nection, we cannot refrain' from giving our readers an 'extract from an article recently contributed to the Weyauwega Timet by this same J. Wakefield The farmer who uses but little capi tal, skill'and must not complain because his. ill-treated and neglected fields will not produce as large crops as those of his more liberal and- scienuho, experienced, and industrious neighbor. It is not so much an increase ot farm products that we need, as it is an increase of the number of bushels taised on a given area of land.

Capital, skill and labor will bring the last, and insure a proper Poor farming never did pay, and we do not believe that it ever will, The agricultural quack does not merit and must not expect to receive the same sucoess that rewards the man of experience. The law of compensation applicable to other occupations holds good in that of farming.
