"a suggestion for their benefit that the old
stock of VIM Frankel's IS rs good as can be
found this side of the Rocky Mountains.-

ENCoURAGING.-Wc really believe
the grain crop is mooying, within the past
few days we have noticed more wagons
laden with grain than we have for three
weeks previous The late rise in prices
is doing up the work, and calling in thou
sands of bushels of wheat that has been held
for the higher prices. Buyers were dodg
ing about from one wagon to another yes
terday AS though they were anxious to get
all they could We trust the price of grain
will yet increase. but would not advise far
mers to wait too long for such an event.

We understand that the Daily Dem

Muscatine. We trust the democracy of that
precinct, who are the party in power. will
come forward like men. and extend a liber

which that city maintains the press i, scab

prise Of any place has no better index than
| the prosperity oftheir papers. To illustrate
| we point to keckuk, Burlington, Davenport
and Dubuque, as places which encourage
the press, and as attended with great pros
perity. Our best wishes for the success of
the Daily Enquirer
| On THE BLuFF.-The bluff, between
Brady and Farnham sta and as far out as
Twelfth, has undergone a remarkable
change this season. New and elegant dwell
lings have gone up at rate that would
fairly surprise one who does not keep thor
oughy posted in the matter. We almost
envy those happy fellows who have made
their homes in that pleasant location Away
from the dust noise. and mud of the business
portion of the city, they retire to their neat
snug domiciles and forget all about the
troubles We poor mortals endure down
town. Lots have sold pretty high there
| during the summer, but there is real value
to them to all such as seek quietude and Sc
| clusion after the business of the day is over.
The style of buildings are neat, tidy, and
convenient,-we!l adapted to the place they
occupy Within three years, the bluff will
be the only fashionable place for private res
idence in the City.

The papers received by the North America
generally agree in representing the aspect of at

Oufra geou. Proceedings.

night in the Hall of the Marylan Institute, the
proceedings were characterised by the most out
iageons lawrssne-s and disregard for decency
and life, that it is possible II imagine. Fights
occurred in which pistols and knives were used
in the froest manner. Country Thompson had
hi, throat cut, from which it is thonght he can
rot recover. A man, whose name could not
learn. was shot in the breast and other acts Of
oatuwry were OF common occurrence. We have
been diligent and careful in making inquiries in
reference to the cause of the disturbances which
took place. and learn that they did not arise from
my political difficulty but transpired wholly with
the members Of the Democratic party Bait.
