The following delightfully refreshing item
of intelligence appears in a Western ex
ehange :
"Week before last the local election in the
'WWII of Plover, Wisconsin, should have
taken place, but it was entirely forgotten
and thus neglected."
By consulting our Gazeteer we find that
this charming retreat was settled in the days
of General Jackson. The Wisconsin river
ions by the enchanted village, bearing in
numerable rafts of lumber s and dense forests
of pine encircling the place with a great
shadow. In 1863 there were three hundred
Plovers in the village, two hotels, and two
stores. The Gaze tter is entirely silent about
the progress of the town since the date men
tioned, and we are left to conjecture that the
two taverns still keep up a generousrivalry,
and that the village quidnuncs read their
almanacs and discuss the weather and the'
crops about the huge winter log, or bask
under the trees in summer / with that per
fect peace of mind which is unknown in
the crowded marts of civilization.
We are reluctant to forsake this idyllic
spot. There must be some amazing good
traits about a village that forgets its local
-elections. We find ourselves wondering
whether the politicians in Plover were killed
off by the cold weather or scared off by the
drafts. May be the treasury of Plover is
out of cash. Surely some one aspires to be
tonstable or town clerk, alderman, burgess
or treasurer. We cannot believe that a
printing press has found its way to the pine
woods, or the local elections 'would not
have thus gone by default. What good,
easy souls the Ploverians must be. We
warrant that fat men' predominate. Sup
posing the thermometer at 90° and no dys
peptic editor on hand to stir up commotion,
we may dimly comprehend how it was
thought liest not to have the "bother of an
election."
We wonder if the Ploverians ever exe
cute notes of hand? They evidently "make
no note of time." How could one of these
imperturbable good fellows remember when
a bill fell due? We doubt whether a grocer
_has balanced his books since the days of
- General Jackson. The Gazetteer does not
inform us whether there is a church in the
-town, but of what use would such an insti
tution be: The people would never know
'when Sunday came. Indeed every day in
the grand shadow of' those pine woods is
Sunday. The dappled deer from the edge
of the forest watches the rival landlords
"take their morning bitters, and the turtles
lazily dream away their lives within a half
doyen yards of the spot where the village
urchins play marbles. Moreover, if the
Ploverians were, by a prodigious effort, to
get into a church, the sexton would forget
to awaken them, and they might sleep on
until the "crack of doom." As to taking'
np a collection for the benefit of the pastor
(if they had one) who would venture upon
such an expenditure of locomotive energy?
No. It is better that there is no church in
Plover. It would only become a rendez
vous for opossums and owls.
Happy Ploverians! They have escaped
all the mental throes and exacerbations of
the reconstruction question, for they have
never heard of such a question. They are
not agitated about the cholera, for the pesti-
ience could never find such an out of the
way place. They will never know what a
_marrow escape Canada has just made, until
the year 1870, when some forlorn stranger,
put off by a steamboat captain for want of
funds at the place, shall tell them that he
was a Fenian, and explain to them how the
Buthians under Fenins settled in Egypt a
thousand years before Christ, and how in
1866 they drove the "Queen's Own" at
Ridgeway. Macanly's fisherman, who is
to sketch the ruins of London from a con
venient bridge will emigrate from Plover.
We are not sure that the Last Maa whom the
poet sings about, will not hail from Plover.
Who would waste time under the silent
columns of Earnak, when he could live
forever amidst the beatitudes of Plover.

The Publishers of Leipsie.
A letter from Germany says:
"I have taken advantage of my stay
in leipsic to make some inquiries into
the extent of the book business here,the
most important single element of the
trade of this place. Everybody knows
that Leipsic is one vast book store, but
few would believe that the traffic can be
conducted in the entirely quiet way in
- which it is. No place exhibits less
books than this. Walking along the
streets it is true you see on almost every
block the word ‘Buchhandlung' in un
obtrusive letters, but very rarely any
display of publications in the shop win
dows. In company with an English
friend I called at one of the largest
houses to procure a work published there.
We went up_a narrow and dark flight of
stairs, at the top of which was a locked
door. In this was a small window, as
large as a small pane of glass,and through
this opening we gave our order and soon
received the book wanted..
"I had occasion to go to the house of
Tauchnitz, known to all the world by
his Collection of British Authors. We
'went through an arch into a large court,
and, after inquiring of a cook in a white
cloth cap, we were directed to a flight of
stairs, at one side of which were the
words, in letters not more than two
inches high. `Tauchnitz, up one flight
of stairs.' We went up, and came. into
the most quiet of offices, where three or
four clerks were writing. One or two
copies of their publications were on the
counter, but that was the only sign of a
bookstore that we perceived. Mr. Tauch
iiitz instantly came in and answered
my questions. He preferred to speak
English rather than German although
he is by no means a master of our
;tongue.
"It is just so with all the great houses
of Leipsic. Even Brockhaus's estab
lishment, the largest book publishing
house in the world, makes no show of
Its greatness, and although inthe double
square which its buildings compas.s it is
impossible to conceal the extent of the
premises, still there is not the faintest
approach to the splendor of the palaces
of Harper, Appletons and Lippincott.
"Brockhaus's is the only instance in
the world, so far as I know of a house
which is comple in itself. lie even goes
so far as to cast his own types and to
manufacture his own machinery. He
publishes all kinds of books, and such is
his knowledge of the trade that almost
everything with his name upon it has
a good. sale. The greatest .tindertaking
which he is now carrying on is the
mew edition of the Conversations Lexi-
eon, a work which even takes lamed
*nce of the American Cy'cropedia.
Brockhans has an immense antiquarian
department, a.retail department--em.
bracing in English books alone an as
sortment larger than many of the Lon
don or New York shops, an engraving
department for both maps and pictures, a
school-book departnaent, and one of mis
sellatteoualiterature,excluding not a sin
gle class of works which , are in popular
demand. The Whole business has grown
up during more than a half a century,
and is now, so thoroughly 'organized a 4
to : almost 'manage, itself. The founder
Is not living, and a •Brockhaus of the
generatiOn is now beginning to
lake the business into his own hands,
Skithopea •MO' gat of the founder has not,
relinquished the nominal control of the
establishment"
TbeExpected Embarnissments of Foreign
131=121
A correspondent, writing to an Eng
lish paper from the continent, speaks as
follows of some of the difficulties which
tourists must expect to encounter in the
event of al war with Europe:
"The continent of Europe will be shut
up as completely as it was during the
great wars of the. Revolution and the
Empire. We shall revert to the, time
when Sydney Smith, taking the squire's
son to finish his education in Germany
was driven by stress of politics to put
into Edinburgh, and remained there for
years. The foreign 'Bradshaw' will
become a dead letter, and Murray's
Guides' as useless as Patterson's "Book
of Roads.' rhe Alpine Club will have
to burn their Alpenstock, for Switzer
land, however strongly its neutrality
may be reaffirmed by the great powers,
is too near the intended scene of :
strife to escape ultimate combustion.
There will be no pleasant trips up the.
Rhine. As for excursions to the Saxon
Switzerland or the Lake of Como, or the
Tyrol—as for art trips to Munich or Dres
den—these will have to be deferred until
central Europe comes to its senses again.
The desperate career of the German wa
tering-places will happily be arrested
for a time; the opera houses will go
bankrupt, and the hotel landlords and
tric a-trac sellers will be able, after a
long series of years, to appreciate all the
luxury of having soldiers billeted upon:
them, and of having to pay 'war taxes
and subscribe to forced loans."
Most of the English people have be
come convinced that America is not
now inhabited entirely by barbarous,
roving tribes of Indians, and if what is
described above actually comes to pass,
we may naturally expect that many
tourists, driven from their natural hunt
ing grounds, will come over to explore
the unknown regions of the United
States. Let the journey once become
fashionable,—and it already seems to be
becoming more and more common,—and
the Falls of Niagara and the Mammoth
Cave will prove much stronger magnets
than the Coliseum and the Mer de Glace.
WHAT CONSTITUTES A. BARREL ?—A ques
tion was recently decided in the Common
Pleas of Erie county, Pa., which may inte
rest some of our readers—especially those
engaged in the oil business. A. purchaser
contracted for one hundred barrels of oil at
$9 00, but sent to the well barrels which
considerably overrun 42 gallons each. The
producer filled 85 barrels of these, making
4,200 gallons, or one hundred barrels of 42
g,allons each, but declined to fill any more.
He was sued for the fifteen barrels claimed.
On the trial it was claimed that the act of
Assembly provided that 31§ gallons make a
barrel, and that no custom, nothing but ex
press agreement between the parties, could
reckon the barrel at more. Consequently,
the claimant, instead of recovering the &-
teed barrels, as sued for, was compelled to
account for the excess of 4,200 gallons, over
100 barrels, reckoning each barrel at 311
gallons. The sharp praetice, therefore, of
some oil purchasers who have been in
creasing the capacitiof their barrels, will
not stand a legal test. Unless they specify
the number of gallons held by their barrels,
they cannot recover, in a court of law, over
the 311 gallons fixed by the act of Assembly.
THY, LAST GOLDEN WEDDING.—The gol
den wedding of the venerable Presiding
Bishop of the United States, Bishop Hop
kins, of Vermont, and his estimable lady,
took place at the episcopal and family home
stead, at Rock Point, Vermont, on the bor
ders of Lake Champlain, last week, and con
tinued from Wednesday evening to Friday
morning. The Bishop is now in his 70th
year, having been married in 1816, and both
he and Mrs. Hopkins are in the most robust
health. The issue of the marriage was a_
nice little family of thirteen, consisting of
nine sons and four daughters. Of these
seven sons and two daughters are now
living. Members of the family are settled
in Buenos Ayres, California, New Orleans,
New York, and Burlington, Vt., besides
other places. Five sons and sons-in-law are
clergymen, three editors, one physician, one
(Casper) stands at the head of the marine
insurance business on the Pacific coast, and
one (Jerome) has devoted himself to the art
of music with a passion for which he seeni , ..•
to have been born. The eldest son, John
Henry, is proprietor and editor of the
Church Journal, one of the most able reli
gious papers in the country.
WONDERFUL YARN.—The "local of the
Wheeling _Register gets off the following :
As a gentleman was passing along Fourth
street yesterday, he passed a place where a
number of boys were playing marbles. Ono
of them, in shooting his marble, cleverly
put it underthe gentleman!s foot. The gen
tleman slipped and tumbled against a lady,
also passing, precipitating her, along with
himself, upon a large hog, who was exam
ining the gutter geograghically for debris.
The hog, frightened out of his propriety,
bolted off, and ran between the legs of
another gentleman, who, in falling, fright
ened a span of horses attached to a wagon in
an alley. A man who was in a carpenter
shop near by, was about to light a cigar,
and upon starting up to see what was the
matter, dropped his lighted match among
the shavings, and a fire came near being
originated. Thus ended this budget of ac
cidents for the day.
THE CROPS,—In New England the crops
are generally, reported good;, hay will be
abundant, and the fruit-yield millions of
dollars in advance of last year. In the
South the general report is that the crops
will turn out well, although in some quar
ters excessive rains are complained of. The
wheat throughout, Georgia has been har
vested, and although the crop is by rio
means excellent, it turns out better than
was anticipated some time ago. Along the
lower Mississippi frequent crevasses have
caused great destruction. In Southern Il
linois the wheat crop is said to be a failure,
but corn is promising well. In Ohio and
Indiana the wheat promises very badly,but
in lowa,. Wisconsin and Minnesota it is ex
cellent. In Maryland and Pennsylvania it
is only moderate.
