The Observations of “The that Lively City. Bee" n Correspondence of Tie Txr Atrantic, Towa, December 19,—This is a thriving city of the second class, containing about 5,000 inhabitants, and situated in the northwest corner of Cass county, of which it is the seat of govern- ment. Joing situated on the main line of the eat Rock Tsland Route, facilit nearl of Council Blufls, and hence is a little west of the “divide.” From this point a branch of the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacitic road runs north to Audubon, 20 miles distant, and one south to Griswold, 16 miles dis- the shipping s are excellent.

The city dates its oxistonce from the advent of the railroad, being first laid out in 1868, The city is growing rapidly in population and wealth, The public en- terprises are of the most substan tial, most tasty, and meritorious kind. Prominent among them is the new Cass county court house has just been mm]v]v(ul at a cost of nearly £100,000, and is & model of beauty in structure and architecture, equalled by only « fow of the Hawkeye county buildings. The opera house is also n model one in its whole interior arrangement. The city has, at present, a home troupe, which plays twice each week, and is liborally supported. The public schools of At- lantic are fully abreast with the times, and amply provided for, are_emploped, who are doinga good work in the education of the young.

The church people are represented by a number of the different organizations, each, I be- ve, having a lberal follow- ing. The fraternal organizations have strong memborships in a varied number of difforent societies, The city is lighted by gas, and supplied with excellent and abundant water of the purest kind, The city is included in the Iowa Telephone company’s list, which gives it o large connection with other places in this part of the state. The fire company is composed of a large member- ship, and is one of the swiftest in the state. It has at different tournaments carried away the belt of championship. The private intercsts are various, prominent among which I mention a large packing establishment, brewery, foundry, distillery, flour mills, soap fac- tory, three banks, several hotels and boarding houses, five newspapers—four weekly and one daily and weekly—and a large number of mercantile establish- ments, some of which are metropolitanin the amount of stock carried.

After;flying about for a whileit was learn- ed that the fire wasin a little shanty west of the Milwaukee & St, Paul freight house, and it was of course burned down before the department could find out even where fire was, The loss was not great and perhaps could not have been avert- ed anyway, but the same trouble is liable to occur and misleaad the department, whils the fire is getting a strong hold on more vnluuhlc property. e Fire Wholesalo Druggist, Austin, Texus, writes: 1 have heen handling DI, WM.
