ALAMAKEE CouNry.--The Lansing
Mirror, contains an account of an ut.
tempted murder, growing out of jeal
ousy:
A man named Charles O'Neil, iv
ing ten miles west of Lansing, on thu
DEBORAH road, stabbed his wife and /;
man named Richard Weaver. Wca
yer boarded with O'Neil and slept il
the store. Early on Monday morning
ONeil, according to his statement
saw from his chamber window, his
wife going towards the store, and fol
lowed her, and found her in Wcaver's
bed. He Immediately fell upon Wea
yer with a knife, and stabbed him sew
en- times in the back between the
shoulders. Mrs. O'Ncil escaped through
an open window, was overtaken by
her husband and stabbed in the back
also, between the shoulders, inhicting
two severe, and it was thought for a
time, fatal wounds.
The wounds were deep enough te
reach the lungs, and respiration in
both cases was through the wounds
mainly. Both are considered in a fail
way to recover.

Worth County.

BRlsroL.-This town, in Worth coun-
ty, is watered by Elk and Lime creeks,
and lies within two miles of a beauti-
full sheet of water known as Rice
Lake. A correspondent of the
Usage Democrat observes Of the ju-
venile city:
"The foundation of Bristol was
commenced a year ago last summer
by Messrs. Lane, Bennett & Loveland.
The first house was erected in July
and so rapid has been its increase
through the active exertions of those
individuals, that the precinct now
numbers near hundred voters. Ii
has an excellent first-class hotel now
in process of erection which will be
completed before winter. 1t has

Usage and Clear Lake. The former
is to be located in few weeks.

these advantages, with the larges
body Of timber in the county, and tn
only heavy body for miles around; pc

Banks.

We have news Of the failure OF nu-
merous Banks-East and West. The
people of Iowa want Home Currency
want Banks that arc organized and
controlled by their own laws-Banks
that are safe and that will redeem
their issues in Gold and Silver. Such
a system is contemplated in the New
Constitution. Now, our Currency is
made up of the bills Of Banks from
Maine to Georgia, and they may all
break, and be worthless and brought
here and circulated by thousands,
days before we hear Of their failures
in Central or Western Iowa. We arc
liable to be imposed upon by Bankers
and dealers in this trash which we are
compelled to call money. Give us a
safe and judicious Banking system
and this will not be the case.

The Railroad Company contest nearly
every case where the location is on

advises pre-emptors to be careful in
complying with the law, if they would
avoid loss. 1t says -
"Work, then, make substantial i'm

your family, and come to the Land Of

Autumn

The hot and sultry summer season
has passed and gone. Its flowers
have bloomed and faded; its ripened
fruits have been gathered. And now
pale Autumn
HAS in her sober livery all things clad"
Autumn has it's peculiar characteris-
tics, and is suggestive of important
lessons from which we should not turn
away. Mark the varied and incxpres-
sibly beautiful hues Of the forest leaves!
Can any thing be more beautiful And
yet how solemn the thoughts suggest
ed by it! 1t is the beautiful impress
of decay. Mark the peculiar stiffness
Of the sky-its calm, serene quietude
A pensive melancholy pervades the
very atmosphere. Looking up into
the heavens, we recognize it in the
gray clouds that float sluggishly along
the sky; in the dense forest and in
the open field its ubiquitous presence
encirclcs us. Reader, we, too, must
ere long pass into 1.-the scar and vel
low leaf" May calm and peaceful
tranquility pcrvadc the autumna
scene with us

A CASE OF TINE IN THE LAPsING OF
A LEGAcY.-Mr McLoskey, a gentleman
worth some $l5O,OOO, dying in Paris,
left So, 900 to a niece in Dubuque, Iowa.
The niece or legatec died on the same
day as the testator. If the hour OF
her death preceded his, the legacy
lapscd if it succeeded his, the legacy
is vested in her. The time of their
deceasc was so nearly identical that
it is supposed it will have to be de-
termined by the difference between
solar and true time, the legacy thereby
depending upon a question of longi-
tudc.

development touching the admins
tration swindlc in that vicinity. 1t
says:
early in the next session of Con

the Fort Smelling operation will be
moved by Democratic member from
one of the States below. He declares
as we understand, that he was in cor.
respondcnce with the department al
Washington respecting the sale, ready
to offer 100000 for the property
But the first information he could OBJ
tain was that it was already priratel1
sold for $4,000. This piece Of Gal
phinism by Democratic leaders in thii
territory, has not its equal in our his
tory. How much completely thcr,
