"Money! replied the stewart.

RocKFoRD.-We learn that the new
town of Rockford, in the Western part
of Floyd county, is going ahead fine
ly., Already they have there some
twenty houses, including a store, no.
tel, &c. Among the buildings are sew
eral grout houses, the materials for
building which are very easily and
economically obtained near by. They
also have a good saw mill, driven by
water power, which has lately gone
into operation, and a Touring mill is
in contemplation. The town site is
one of the most beautiful to be found
in this section Of the country, and that
is saying a good deal. A large
amount of building is anticipated there
the coming season. We rejoice in the
growth of these new townsville more
we have Of them the better. But
above all, do we want farmers to til
the soil. This country before all 9th
ers in the world is the farmers para
disc, and it is here that labor finds it
sure and adequate reward.

The Next Cabinet.

The Lancaster (Pa.) Express, in an
article respecting the various rumors
about who will have seats in Mr.. Blu
chanan's Cabinet, says:
According to our information, which
we obtain from the most reliable
sources, all these interesting specula-
tons will be knocked into "pi" when
Mr.. Buchanan turns his attention to
the selection Of Cabinet. He is de,
termined to give his administration
such shape as will, in his judgement
be best calculated to bring out the
liberal conservative sentiment of the
people, north and south. Before the
election he expressed it as his earnest
conviction that Kansas would come
into the Union as free State, ano
he still adheres to that opinion
To make good this prediction, and t.
fulfil assurances repeatedly made tt
his friends here, he will necessarily
have to avoid all extremes both in tht
selection of Cabinet and the policy
of his administration. After looking
over the whole ground, with the light
now before us, we come to the con
clusion that the new Cabinet vii
stand something like this:
Hon. Lewis Cass, Of Michigan
Secretary of State.
Hon. X. NJ. L. Hunter, of Virginia
| e 4ho Trancurxy
Hon. John Appleton, of Maine
Secretary of the Interior.
Hon. Howell Cobb, of Georgia, Sec
rotary of the Navy.
Hon. James a. Bayard, of Dels
ware, Secretary Of War.
Hon. Jesse d. Bright, of Indiana
Postmaster General.
Hon. Josiah Randall, of Pennsylv;
MIA Attorney General.

THE MoRMoNs.- Saints of Great
Salt Lake have issued proclamation
to the faithful, endorsing the Buchan-
an Democracy, andrepudiating the Re-
publican party. They say -" The
Democratic party is the instrument,
in Gods hand, by which is to be effect
edourrecognition as sovereign State,
with the domestic institutions of Sla-
very and Polygamy, as established by
the patriarch and prophets of old, un-
der divine authority, and renewed to
the saints of latter days, through
Gods chosen rulers and prophets
Then, after quoting that excellent plat
form of the Republican party, which
states that it " is the right and duty
of Congress to prohibit in the Terrific
ries those twin relics of barbarism-
Polygamy and Slavery" the Saints
add -" This is a blow aimed directly
at our rights as citizens of one of the
Territories, at our sacred institutions
and our holy religion"

The Cities of Iowa.

Dubuque at the recent election poll,
ed 2lS6 votes. This is the vote OF
Julien township. Since August 400
voters have been naturalized in this
one precinct.
Davenport polled 1850 votes, being
an increase of 400 votes since August,
and very few of them naturalized.
Keokuk polled 1903 votes.
Burlington gave l4SS votes.
Muscatine gave 1899 votes.
The river cities of Iowa come in the
order in which we place them. Had
it not been for the unprecedented
number of Irish voters naturalized at
Dubuque during the last three months,
Davenport would have overtaken her
in the size of her poll. AS it is, owing
to the large number of single men
among the miners, her population but
slightly exceeds that of Davenport.
In another two years we expect to
have the largest population OF any
city in Iowa.-Darenport Gazette.

them, when Major Wayne very kindly
sent out and had them driven in for
our inspection. There are altogether
thirty-two, including some young ones,
and all are in excellent health, and
seem to be doing well. Major Wayne
gave us very interesting account OF
their habits and peculiarities, and he
ordered one to be led out and loaded
as if for journey. After kneeling to
receive the pack-saddle, most cum
brous load of itself, but such rs are
used in the country from which they
came, load of corn was placed upon
the animals back, sufficient for two
mules to draw in wagon, with which
he started off at a good round pace
4 dromedary was next led out, which
is the saddle animal of the camel, and
after kneeling to receive the saddle
he was mounted by an Arab, who start
ed off across the prairie at pace
which seemed to me not much short o.
two-forty lick This pace they car
keep up for hours in succession, trav
cling with perfect ease from sixty to
eighty miles per day. They can also
subsist for several days without wa
ter, and their adaptability to the from
tier service for which they are design
ed is now a matter beyond doubt
Major Wayne informed me that he had
forty more animals coming out, and he
is now building stable in which they
will be kept, which he expects to get
finished before the cold weather sets

BUcKwHEAr CAKEs.-One buckwheat
cake differeth from another in glory
yet not one in a thousand is made
right. Yet Of all things, it is the
easiest to cook if the meal is made
rightly. To every three bushels of
buckwheat add one of good heavy
oats, grind them together as if they
were only buckwheat thus will you
have cakes always light and always
brown, to say nothing of the greater
digestibility, and the Tightening OF
spirits, which are equally certain.

It would be to the advantage of
farmers to confne their attention ex-
clusively to their farms, and let all
specializing business alone !; for, if
farming is worth following at all, it is
certainly much better to attend to it
we'll than to have the mind divided be.
tween it and some other object. 1t is
best, moreover, for farmers to raise
crops of every variety that their land
will produce, which are saleable in
their vicinity for by following this
plan, if one crop fails, or is not so
much in demand, some other viii
probably be found to compensate tn
loss. '-as. 4ant

st. Charles.

We paid this town visit week be-
fore last, and were pleased to notice,
as heretofore, it's rapid, yet permanent
growth. We have ever looked upon
this place as one Of Importance in
Northern Iowa. It most certainly has
brilliant future before. it. The pros
pect of Railroad from McGregor is
certain, and its completion will be
Witnessed atno very distant day. The
County of Floyd, Of which st. Charles
is the County seat, decided by vote on
the 4th day of November to take
500, 900 stock in that road. We be-
lieve all the other counties on the line
of that road from McGregor, have de-
cided to take stock in this road.
The Cedar at this place affords a
first class water power, which is be-
ing we'll improved, and upon this its
future growth depends. 1t is no.
ticeable fact that all our large and
| important towns lie on or near navl
| gable waters, or such water powers.
The people of Floyd county are ta
king steps toward erecting a Court
House at this place. The enterprisine
firm of Cheney & Bracket has erected
a magnificent store, three stories high
20 by 60 feet in the clear. The front
is of cut stone, and the whole of SUI
perior and durable finish. We think
we are safe in saying that it is the
finest store in Northern Iowa, and tina
enterprising firm do not intend to b.
equalled, also, in the quantity ant
quality of the goods, with which they
| fill it. We publish their advertise
ment, as well as those of Ferguson .
