Sfuscatne is rapidly advancing higher in rank as
manufacturing place, sure precursor of future In
portance.
We have two large steam Touring mills, and tw,
steam saw mills, doing heavy business.
Mr.. Smalley holds the patent for this county, fer
manufacturing corn cutivators. Last year he manu
factured and sold FIVE hundred at s. piece, and had
not enough to supply the demand, and intends mann
featuring five hundred this year.
r Messrs. Dunsmore h Chambers are driving large
business with their steam saw mill and machinery for
manufacturing bedsteads and furniture They give
constant employment to forty hands.
Mr.. Hill has machine shop with steam power, for
manufacturing flooring, sash and frames and shingles
I Messrs Unger s. Null are making great deal Of
fine furniture and keep employed ten Of the very best
mechanics. Driven by the same steam power is the
machinery Of Messrs. Cadle Patten who are turning
out large quantity of sash and frame work. /.
Mr.. Wm Gordon has windmill for cutting lumber
and the power to manufacture it into sash
and frames. His mill and machinery are doing good
business.
Another establishment for the manufacture Of furni
ture, we understand is about to be established.
The workmen engaged on the depot of the Musca
tine and Oskaloosa railroad are making remarkable
progress, and the huge hill occupying its selected site
begins to manifest symptoms of completing its descent
from its proud position to the low ground extending
along the river bank below The latter rises with the

IL A scoundrel who was acting Ss
steward ON the little steamer Col. Nor.
gan, during her recent trip from Galena
to Mon,rose, attempted TO violate the
person Of young German girl who was
acting as chambermaid. She resoluteIy
resisted his advances. and Indignantly
refused the presents which he offered to
induce her to comply with his wishes.
Finally. he became so exaspera,ed that
he struck her violent blow in the face,
knocking her against the partition and
causing blood TO flow profusely from her
face. Her cries brought assistance,
when she was rescued. The following
morning, Capt. Warner hearing of the
circumstances, had the steward put
ashore, after which our former towns
man, Mr.. James Sven. (now of Pres.
cot,, Wisconsin.) who is a great lover
OF Justice, snd an honest, clever fellow,
,hrashed The scoundrel soundly and gave
him such series of duckings as should

served it all, and much more.
The above circumstance occurred
while the boat was lying wind.bound at
