Kcok uk-Gate CITY of Iowa.

AcOkuk-G0te City OF iowa.
KEoKuK, July, 1857.
The wonderful log-cabin history Of Chica-
20 has been often told, and it is familiar in
the ears Of many rs household words. Her
giant strides from infancy to youth and
n anhood have been portrayed by every tour
list, and can be found, fresh colored, ia eve
ry geography and guide book. But histo-
~ more wonderful and fairy-like--of city
born ia day-may be written Of Koekuk,
the Gate City of Iowa. Its rise to its present
position has, 10 fact, been 50 rapid, that while
the East has been awaking from its dream
OF her, as wilderness on the bluffs OF the
Mississippi, she has suddenly startled the
world with her city-presence. Twelve years
or little more ago, the entire region around
US was an almost unbroken land of wild
loneliness--the forest trees casting their
shadows everywhere, and the thick under
brush impeding the attempt at finding road
or pathway, while here and there cabin
alone indicated the presence OF human life.
Now, an imposing levee swarms with life
and activity, the steam whistle sends forth
its welcome notes in the distance, either way,
indicating the arrival of trains from two ter
mini. Steam packets and lighters touch and
depart, and tons OF merchandise are landed
and reshipped. As the eye turns upward a
wide and commanding street opens to view,
lined with brick stores and warehouses OF
spacious dimensions, and you find yourself
IN the centre OF great and thriving city.
The first range OF ascent is reached, and u
mile of street, crowded with busy business
multitude is before you. On either hand,
as you advance, imposing thoroughfares
spread out before you, lined with stores or
dwellings, mostly of brick, and some OF large
imposing size and Of costly construction.
Nearly twenty Thousand inhabitants occupy
the site Of the wilderness and you stand in
the midst OF them awe-s struck and bewilder-
ed with amazement, for the hundrcdth par.
Of what had been told you Of the rapid
growth OF keokuk, had, until now, not been
realized.
We have wandered over the city, and
gathered up scraps Of her marvellous histo-
~ We have rode upon her Grand Avenue
on the majestic bluffs Of the Mississippi,
along which the multitude, like the city
grown rich in u day, rear their beautiful
mansions, overlooking city, river and coun-
try, in one wlde-spreading view. We have
passed on for more than two miles, round q
half circle, refined our horses heads on the
back table land, and gazed, in rapture, on
an area of ten miles square, covered with
hundreds of substantial brick buildings.
while turret, dome and tower, interspersed,
attest the presence Of learning and religion.

The Republican Nom,na.,ou,.

The present is one OF the most imnortan,
elections that has ever been held in the
State. 1t involves the setting in motion Of
the New Constitution and the policy OF the
State for years touching the subject OF
banks, schools, de. There are to be elected
Governor, Lieut.. Governor, State Lerisla-
turc which is to elect United States Sena.
tor TO succeed Gen. Jones.
And as 1t is not only necessary that W
stand right upon the record as par.y-that
our principles and practices are sound, but
that we present to tho people CO adidates Of
character and standing who are Trustworthy.
II il therefore with much pleasure tina. We
congratulate the Republicans Of Iowa upon
the extremely fortunate choice made BY their
representatives at the late Convention. A
better man, We venture to say, could not be
found in the State than Judge Lowe, ne a re-
cipient OF the nomination for Governor. An
old citizen, widely and favorably known. he
possesses the confidence and esteem Of the
people to an extent not equalled probably by
any other private citizen in the State. We
go into this important contest with stan.
dard bearer every way worthy. Ii we arc
not successful it will be our own fault
