Public Library in st. Charles.

We are glad to see a movement in
this town to establish a public library,
and trust that it may prove success
full. Money will be needed, and we
understand handsome sum for be-
ginning, is already pledged. Apublic
library that is judiciously selected
is of incstimablc value to any place.
Especially is this true in regard to the
salutary influence it has upon the
young, and indeed upon all ages and
classes in society. Its benefit is not con-
fined to those who ayread the various
works it may contain. BY reading
good books many are kept from sur.
rounding temptations. Others are
led to think and investigate, and the
result is, that the whole community
are benefited by the existence of such
an institution. 1t is also the only
means by which many an INDECENT
yet deserving and promising youth
can obtain access to many valuable
publications. In future perhaps a
reading room might be advantageous
ly connected with the Library. Uni
ty of action is desirable, but agitation
and public action upon the subject are
essential to success.

find time to notice it. His error lay
in replying to the original memorial.
1t was not the part of discretion, know

with truth, to measure swords with
the sig aers of the document. 1t was
called the Silliman letter, but Protcs-

his name to it. Who was its author
we know not. The present letter Is
attributed to President Woolscy OF
Yale College, a gentleman whose rank,
intellectually, is in no degree below
that of President Buchanan.

In looking over the proceedings OF
the Minnesota Democratic State Con
vention, which we find in the st. Paul
Pioneer, we notice that our old Massa'
chusctts friend, j. NJ. Cavanaugh, now
of Chatfield, Min, has received the
nom alton for representative in Con
gress from the southern district Of
that State. The Pioneer in alluding
to him says:
eff we arc not mistaken, this same
Cavanaugh possesses the highest or
der of campaign talent. He is man
of cultivated mind. splendid oratorical
powers, and is we'll read in political
history"
This is all true, and if elected he
will make an able and efficient repre-.
sentative.

Chinese Sugar Cane.

Much interest in the Chinese Sugar
Cane appears to be manifested by the
farmers in this vicinity. Mr.. Joseph
Coley has shown us six stalks, twelve
feet high, grown from three seeds. He
is experimenting to ascertain the best
method Of manufacturing the molas-
scs and sugar from it. Mr.. G. L. Spaul-
ding also brought in some samples OF
the cane, twelve and half feet high.
He thinks the seed is fully ripe. Mr..
7. Gilbert has shown us stalk four
teen and half feet high, and also
sent us some of the syrup which we
pronounce excellent, altogether better
than any we had before seen. From
the product of one package of seed,
planted this season, he expects to
make all the sugar and molasses re-
quircd in his family. He has ma
chine for crushing the cane and ex-
pressing the juice therefrom. Aquart
Of the juice may be obtained from two
or three stalks.
In Cedar township we learn that a
mill has been erected, and more thar
one hundred gallons of superior syruI
have already been manufactured there
The present season will demonstrate
whether or not the people of Iowa cal
profitably manufacture their own mo
lasscs from the Chinese sugar cane
In our opinion there is but little doubt
of their success.
The molasses shown US by Mr.. Gil
bert appears equal in quality and fla
vor to the celebrated Stewards syr
up Certainly molasses of no better
quality has been selling in our market
all the present season for $3.50 pei
gallon. 1t is estimated that one acre
of the cane will produce 500 gallons
of molasses. This, at so per gal.
lon, is $1,000, as the product of one
acre of land. Iowa farmers will be
pretty sure to have an eye upon any
chances which promise profit like
this.

rencer on an enlarged sheet. We are
now enabled better to accommodate
our advertising patrons, while we can
at the same time furnish several col

have given the paper a new and beau-
tiful head, although the same gene
raj features of the former one are re-
tanned. The vignette is an entirely
new design, engraved expressly to
our order. In addition to the State
seal it embraces many scenes incident
to the West, and is on the whole a
very pretty picture. kilbourn " Nal

The ST Louis Intelligencer makes
an estimate from which it concludes
that, to put it as low as possible, the
increase of capital this year from East
ern and foreign sources, in the States
of Illinois, Wisconsin and Iowa; the
Territories of Minnesota, Kansas and
Nebraska, is $25, 900, 900, which is ten

The Rock Island Bridge Case.

The case of the steamer Ellie Alton
VS.. Rock Island Bridge, in which the
owners of this steamer claimed $780,
900 damages Of the bridge company
for her destruction by the fire at the
bridge May 6, 1856, was recently
tried at Chicago, before the U. S. Cir
cult Court, Hon. John Mclean, pre-
siding Judge. This case was one of
the most important ever docketed in
the West. Upon it's decision not
only rested the legal safety Of the
magnificent structure which spans the
great Mississippi river, the only bridge
across the Father of Waters" below
the Falls Of St. Anthony, but the very
principle of whether bridges which
through any cnmity Or prejudice or
jealousy are considered in the slight
est particular an "impediment to nav
CATION" can be erected over this
stream. At this time the preliminary
work on three similar bridges to this,
has been commenced, while compa-

of several more such bridges. Whether

tide be permitted to remain an insur

this decision.
The whole affair appears to hav,
been a struggle between st. Loui
and her more northern rivials-th
river interest and the railroads-fogy
ism and progress. The jury stoo'
eleven for the defence and one for the
prosecution, and failing to agree wer
discharged. The result is virtually
victory for the bridge; because the
failure of st. Louis to obtain the verde
