Wisconsin. We hear but one story from all
parts of the State, as to the prospect of the
crops. . It is the universal testimony of the
farmers and travelers that the country never
looked so well as it does now. There is an
immense amount of grain rapidly maturing,
and, with the continuance of good weather,
Wisconsin, will raise, this year, an enormous
surplus. Prices, too, promise to be satisfac
tory, and, altogether, the prospect for 1860 is
as favorable as could be wished.

KEEP UP THE EXCITEMENT Re
movals always cause excitement, and since
the great excftenient about the removal of tho
Court House bos subsided, the community gener
ally have become somewhat excited upon hearing
that Charly Watson has determined to pull up
stakes and rem eve 'to Virginia. But the latest
cause of exoitcment is the fact that I have remov
ed niy Saddler Shop from my old stand opposite
the Court House to my new shop on Market street,
nearly opposite the jail, where all who may favor
me with a call can be supplied with Saddles, Sin
gle Harness, Double Harness, Tug Harness, Bri
dlts, Collars, Whips, Halters. Housing, Breerh
bands, Side Straps, and in fact every article in the
line of Saddling and Harness making. Thankful
for the very liberal patronage heretofore bestowed
I solicit a continuance of tbe same and a call frcm
as many new customers as can make it suit.
