acme gtbtecale. I i C. San.lford, icaitor nntl Praprlvfpr WEDNESDAY, JULY 11, 1865 To Those Interested, Enlargement of Uio Advocate, About tho first of September vo present the Advocato in an enlarge! more acceptable form. Wc arc now hnv ing a Power Press made and the materials jircpared, by help of whuli wc hope to I malic tho Advocate equal to any family newspaper in tho btatc. The increasing demands of the bus'nesr.

interests of Ivitcine upon our ticlvei tisuii: columns, have satisfied us that wo most cither enlarge our papor or crowd upon the space dovotcd to reading matter more than would be satisfactory to our subscribers and as wc aro determined to keep a little in advanco of the public on this point, wo shall be ready lor the full business with increased The Advocate will be nn eight column paper, printed on a sheet 28 by 43 inches. Jn this connection wc wish to say a word or two in regard to our position bore. and politically the Advocate is independent, of all cliques and panics. We labor with the Republicans, because wo believe that party to be the tnlv one in the Stato upon which tho people can rely for the protection of their rights. So long as wc believe the Tiepub it lit shall cordially villi them, nud so lous; ns they appro of course wo expect they will support and no hnfftr.

Of the business men of Racine, alt rule is that they will look to their own ii tercsts. Wc do not wish any man take the Advocato or advertise merely ft. the purpose of "patronizing" it, for docs not need any such support, and sue patrons are tlu greatest curse with which a publishor can l.o afflicted. Wc believe that any business worth attending to, is worth advertising to those of our bu i jiess men who agree with us in this opinion, we offer the columns of the Advocate as nn excellent and cheap medium of communication between them and the public. Rut wc hope no man will spend a dollar ho feels cohfidt thai, he will rccciv, benefit from the ii twelve shillings Prompt Returns.

There is no rir.erpriso in which a com munity can engage which pays so prompt and surely as Railroad. The citizens of R.v ino are inroad reaping the fruits of their enterprise. The moment it became a fixed fact that the Racine Mississippi Railroad would bj built, the value of property hercb.gaii to and the demand for it to increase. Real estate now sells quick at 25 per ct. advance on prices which went bogg'ng last fall.

A g. ntlc jnnn from tho cast lias just secured three lots fronting on iho river, upon which lie intends to erect a large machine shop the building will be 150 feet long by GO wide. The establishment will be devoted exclu sively to the manufacture of patent machinery for sawing lumber. Two gentlemen have made arrangements for establishing a wholesale stnnj ware depot hero in September, and bolides these, many of our own citizens arc preparing to enlarge and extend business. If tho laying of the first bar of iron has such an influence upon tho bu.incs of II i cine, what may wc not reasonably expect when the cars rim direct from this city to the Mississippi.

The futuro is lull ol bright hopes. Severe tialc. A. terrific gulo passed over this region country on Sunday night last, The Congregational Church, in Sngctnwn suffered tho worst of any budding in this cily three of the chimneys were blown off, and the spire so badly started from its found ation that, at first, fears wore entertained i i chanics have siuce made a thorough exom ination and report that it a be made nil right again.

honor to the Accident on the Lake Shoro'R. It. A sjrious occurred to the train going South last Friday evening. A freight, car loaded with stoves at Kenosha, placed in the train between the tcndci the baggrtge cai', an 1 when near Wail broke nn plunged iff the! track, taking with it the baggage and bcv passenger cars. No passengers were injured, but the' baggage master nnd one the brakemen badly hurt, the recovery the latter being doubtful.

The freight which caused thc contained 50 stoves, and after, performing several feats ground and lofty tumbling, c.i'rho to a stopping place of tho 56 stoves mm; were whole, the balance smashed into Census Returns. Three weeks ago tho Koriosh: announced that tho City Cleric lm completed the census of that place, audi that the population on tho lir. of Juno was uboiil 3,900 the offiuial figures have yet been given, so that 'wo are unable tell about how many linudroJ it fall short of the repoifed number. Iu 1850 population of Kenosha was' 3,455. The Jancsvillo Gazette gives tho follow report of the population' of that city.

Ward 881 Tho population of Boloit, as reported two weeks ago 4,200. Detoit and during tho past five years have increased in a greater ratio than this city but during that time they have had all, or nearly all tho advantages of Railroad connection wirn mw been ns completely shut out from communication wilh the worll during the winter season, as though wo hud been on the back side of all' creation. With nil these disadvantages to contend agonist, Racine has pushed steadily ahead. 1850 the population was 5,107, now the census will show a population of between 7,500 and SlDStility of Slavery to Foreigners.

Wholesale Drug and Grocery Store.1 The attention of country dealers and those wishing to buy Drugs orGroccries at wholesale, is directed to the advertisement of Messrs. F.

W. DeBorard Co. in to days Advocato. This firm intend to do a wholesale business, and au examination of their prices and stock in store will satisfy all that they can redeem their promises. They also have a largo whole I sale estnolislmient nr.

They can sell to country dealers as cheap ns the latter can buy in. New Yorl nothing of transportation and urdny afternoon" 'clock in front of the Oohrt'House. This is doubtless the b. way of disposing of them, as it will give overv one a chance to purchase, ho ish es a lot.

They will be sold in single lots, and as there are twenty four on the school ii and four ii 3etown, there will be ht men to procure good homestead. The title to them can btTnia.dc pcrfect. as the, city now' 'has fee simplo. The, lots on, the school section arc as eligible for cTw'ollings n.s.wny:ih the city. The one irt the 5th ward which is on the Milwaukee road has on it a large dwelling, hqusp, lies beau: ifully and trilling expense can, made one of the prettiest residences in thc city.

The object for 'which tho nvails of these lots arc to be iised, commends itself to the good will of every inhabitant of the city. It is hoped nudexpeoted that they will sell for enough to commence and complete the three school houses which, are asked' for the Board of Education, and demand ed by tho imperative wants of the present and increasing youth of the city. It is, proposed by the Board' of Education if tho means can be furnished, to erect three scho'il houses at an expense of about three thousand dollars each. Ode to be located in the 3.1, and one in the 4th, nd one in tho 5th wards. These XjV.

ill be calculated to accommodate about three hundred pupils each, and will bt erected in good lastc, according to the modern stylo'ofhrchitecture, with a showy oupola for a. bell, and will be an ornament to the localities which may be lucky enough to obtain them'. The public squares in the llnrd and roiirth wards will be proper places fur them in those' Vards, while poor Sugetywn wliijji was not born with a piece of public ground, will hnyoto go or hunt up something else. Jt is hoped however that some one or more of the heavy landed proprietors in that. will be'jpdujed to.mnlte the city a escnt of handsome lot and thus esc ipe further taxation on it.

In calling tlio attention of otir renders to this matter, wc hope to impress them with the idea, that, however desirable it might be to obtain these beautiful lots for a very smalt sum, yet tho suin3 which they do bring are to be devoted to the most laudable of all human objects, nnd: therefore evqry jeffurt should be. made to have a large, crowd attend the stile in order that the bidding may be free nn'd spir itod, and that the lots may bring prices The terms on which they are to be sold arc qi liberal and arc the best that could he made' to answer the purpose iu applying the proceeds to the erection of the buildings.
