The reads are now passable, and there never will be a better titne to visit this beautiful Hall and dance after music that has no stt- superiof in the Northwest. Remember Friday evening of this week; the 5th. THE Marengo says: "One WM. Adkins, of Ne w Milford, was found dead in Monday mbrning of last, week, about two miles,w^st of Cherry Valley, near the railroad track. An empty hot tie, and a bottle full of alcohol were found on his person. The empty bot tle told the tale of beastly drunkenness, resuiy^ug in death from cold ai^d ex haustion. So said the coroner's jury." A PROPOSITION is now on foot to build a dam across Fox R.\ver four hun dred feet high, cut a shipOanal through from Lake'Michigan, build levies along the banks of Nippersink Point, sur round Lippincott's Club House with a wall, the stone to be brought from the low lands of English Prairie on the new Steamer WR.

Forul'ii OF itLXY. tr ¥(>tlce held at the Universalist Church on Thursday evening last, for the purpose of taking into consideration the tion of celebrating the comiug Fourth of July in McHenry; On motion E, Griswold was choseU Chairman and J. Van Slyke Secretary. On motion, duly seconded it was re solved that we celebrate the coming 4th of July in a manner becoming the Centennial year. % ^ , A committee of three on Finance was th£n appointed consisting of O. W. Owen, J. Van Slyke and Harrison Smith, who were instructed to see i f the necessary funds could be raised and report at the next meeting, The meeting then adjounied to meet at the same place on Thursday eVeniag of this week, at 8 o'clock sharp. Now that the preliminary arrange ments have been completed, let each of our citizens constitute themselves a committee of one to help push the mat ter forward* If this is done we can have one of the best celebrations ever held in the bouctv. Let every man at tend the; meet ing oii Thursday evening, and by his presence, at least show that he is interested in the matter. The success or failure of the celebration now rests entirely with you. , Therefore we say remember and toe on html on Thursday evening. J, : TliJ& new baru at the Parker nonse being completed we took a look oVer it one day last week, and can truly re iterate what we said a week ago, that it is decidedly the best hiflfn for Hotel purposes to be found in the County. The new barn is 30xfi0. A large slide door lets you first into, the carriage room, which is 30x30, and 10 feet 4 inches between joints. Oujt of this a large door let's 3*011 into the stable which is the same size of the carriage room, and is finished off in stalls suffi cient to accommodate 20 horses with out crowding in the least. The stalls are all hirui^hed with the patent shoots fpr hay, and the stalls and mangers neatly bound with iron to prevent horses from knawing them. The floors over head are all rtiatclied, leaving no chance for a particle of dust or hay seed to get through, while the lower lloor it solid two inch plank, and in the stalls ^re doubled. A large double door connects the old barn with the new, large euough for a team to be driven through. The old barn i? 30x50, and is finished off in stalls sufficient to accommodate 24 horses. The loft is made into two departments, on the South side being )>uiR an Oat bin ca pable of holding about 700 bushels, while the balance is large enough to store 20 tons of hay. In the carriage hoKse is a trapdoor through which the oats are hauled up to the granery. and a slide or hopper is. fixed which brings them down into the stable in quantities to suit. Taken all in all this barn coultl not be bettered in any particular. We fere informed that it cost between five and six hundred dollars, and was built by Wendell & Shultz. and no one can examine it without admitting that they ar^ niaetcus of their trade. It is certainly an houor to their skill. I^roceediuge of the Ho^rd of Trustees. M<?Uekry, April 28th 1S7G. Board met in pursuance to adjourn ment.

THE NKW 81EA.HWOAT. • EDITOR PLAINDEALER:--By T^fe WTID invitation of Messrs. Snyder & Clark, the gentlemanly owners of the little Steamer "R. Emerson," we took a fly ing trip to the Lakes on Sunday eve- niug last and although there was a stiff wind and strong current to overcome, our staunch little craft victoriously "made the riffle." The waves on the Lakes might fairly be termed heavy in land seas, yet thelittle Steamer buffeted them with ease aud passed along with surprising steadness for so small acraft. Unbeknown to our captain and engi neer I was noting the time of our pat- sage and can say that we made excel lent, time considering the disadvantages of weather, the newness of the boat and machinery, the inexperience of our Pilot and the quality of the coal used, which I must say was poor or not adapted to the furnace of the boat, for it formed repeatedly in large clinkers over the bottom of the fire chamber, destroying the draft and "making our engiuecr sing an occasional hymn while poking them out and letting the steam run down. We made the round trip from McHenry to Col. Lippincott's beautiful harbor on Fox Lake and back 01^ a if Average of 7 miles per hour which under the circumstances I call very good. I hesitate not to say that when the boys get everything in run ning order aud can keep Lew from look ing towards .Johnsburgh so muph they will carry you to the Lakes and back as fast and with as much genuine generosi ty as any team afloat. You BET. P. S. Some other time I will toll you about what we «aw on our trip. Commissioner for the municipal year. On motion of Mr, . Searles Mr Peter Leikuin was appointed Corporation Constable.
