Few towns or cities in tho west, or even the east, can boast of as many flourishing institutions as there are in the city of Bed Cloud, all of which are doing a succecsfnl business.

It i such institutions a. thr.-,c that build up cities and mikes the people contented and well to do. Our best wishes are for an unlimited and suc cessful career to tho Western Imple ment Company. The VNtr Comity fiazdte published at Kingston, New Vork Samuel Freer fc Sen proprietors, dated Jan. -4th 1S00 is on our tabic by the courtesy of A.W. Spencer of Kansas.

John Schoonmaker announces to the world in bold letters "That he hni for sale the one half of a saw mill with a con venient place and also a good stout healthy, negro, wench." etc. in fact the paper is an odd neciiue n of ye olden times and is filled with many novel sayings and peculiarities of the ear lier da of the United States.
