NEws.-A writer in the last Gazette,
speaking of the pleasant town of New
London, says tina, "it is the county sea.
Of Henry County," We have always
thought, and so have our readers, that
Mount Pleasant. the handsomest interior
town. perhaps, in Iowa, was tile county
sea. Of Henry County. Such Statement,
was evidently an accidental error in the
Gazette. but as it does grea, injustice to
Mount Pleasant, we hope i. may be cor.
rec,ed without delay. I, is not to be
expected, Of course. that the editor Of The
Gazette should have seen the mistake and
rectiRed it. His immigration to this
Territory is Of so recen. a date and his
consequent knowledge Of its geography
