BROOKI.ET OF OUR JOYS.

"The brook of the willows Isaiah xv., vii
With a pleasant, murmuring noise,
Gldes the brookiet Of our Joys,
Sparkling in the sunlight sheen,
Fringed with flowers and necked with green,
Yet It's beauteous banks along,
Here and there with fbres strong,
Stili the tree Of weeping drocpetn,
And TO kiss its forehead stoopcth.
Early spring the current swels,
Brlmming DER in cry stall wells,
Sultry summer checks its flow,
Brooks decrease--but willows grow.

MORE ABOUT THE GoLD IN Iowa.
There is no doubt about Gold having
been found in Iowa. Here is another
item of evidence. The Winterset
Madisonian of the goth ult says:
GoLD GoLD 1T is a startling but
pleasing fact that gold is being dis
covered all around US. Gold has been
found in small quantities near st.
Charles, in this county; several re-
turned Californians are there digging,
and say they will make it pay first
rate. Gold has also been discovered
in Adair county. Mr.. Sommer, sill
versmith, Of this place, has in his pos
session some small particles of gold
dug in Clark county, which is Of a fine
quality. The sand on the streams
where the gold is found is the same
kind as that in which the gold is found
in California.

Every one should plant trees. No

more productive than the apple or the

Pcnitents at the religious revivals,
now so prominent feature in New
York city, are allowed only five min
utcs in which to make a public con.
fesson of their sins. The regulation
is extremely i'll adapted 10 the meridi-
an of New York. If confessions de.
Gently complete are desired the ten
hour rule" would be more to the pur,
pose. Imagine, for instance, Bennett,
of the Herald, or Brooks, of the Ex.
press, conlessing their sins in the
ridiculous space Of five minutes! Why
it would take the latter a month to ac
knowledge half the lies he told about
John c. Fremont, and as for Bennett,
the old sinner, he might appropriately
devote the remainder of his life to CON
fcssions.

HabeaS Corpus.

Application was made to Judge
Ripley, County Judge Of Floyd Coun-
ty, on Wednesday, for a writ of hoJe0s
corpus to discharge l.. L. Mills of Chi
cago, and a. f. Sawyer of Prairie du
Chen, who were arrested here by an
officer of Mitchell County for stealing
a grave charge, when it is under
stood that the gentlemen had merely
attached some horses to secure a
debt. 1t appears that a large number
of fraudulent deeds for land have been
executed by certain parties at Usage,
in Mitchell County, and that these boz
gus deeds have been disposed of in
Chicago for merchandise to the amount
of several thousand dollars. Mr.
Mills is one of the sufferers, and hav-
ing visited Usage for the purpose of
investigating matters, finally attached
three horses which were brought to
st. Charles for safe keeping. While
here, "a warrant was served on Messrs.
Mills and Sawyer charging them with
stealing the horses, and it was to OBJ
tain discharge that the habeas oorpu.
writ was applied for. Judge Ripley
decided thct he could not release tn,
, parties and the sheriff has taken then
9 back to Usage The horses were at
, tacled as the property of Mcssrs
Bishop, Holbrook and Young.

county. Commssary General Rich
ards, of Fort Dodge, writes the Gov
crnor under date Of the 2Sth ult., that
he has received similar intelligence
from two different sources. Eight
Indians, with Little Dog, the son "i
Little Grow, had visited the settlers
with flag, protesting friendship and
informing them that lnkpaduta with
his band was twelve miles west Oh
them, and that Little Crow was en-
campcd with another band near him,
also that several other small bands
were in the neighborhood. The set
tiers had no confidence in these friend
ly professions, and believed that the
Indians were gathering ON the border,
and would make an attack as soon as
bad roads and swollen streams would
render it difficult to send aid from the
interior. Another letter has been re.
ccived from General Richards, bearing
date of March cd, stating that Capt
Martin had just started with thirty-onc
men to the frontier. The company
bad been armed from the military
stores at Fort Dodge, and were as well
equipped as the brief time given for
the preparation would permit. Capt.
Martin has been ordered TO act with
prudence, and to take offensive steps
against none but lmkpaduta'S band.
All the Indians in that region will be
commanded to leave the State immc-
diatcly. If Inkpaduta is there, an at

WoLvEs--A few days since a party
Of gentlemen from this city, went out
on the prairie to the west, to hunt
prairie chickens and such other game
as might come within the range OF
their fowling-pieccs. Arriving on the
hunting ground. they separated lcav-
ing the horses in charge of one Of their
number, while the rest sought for
game. In a short time they wcfc
alarmed at the sound Of gun in the
direction of their horses, and on
fastening to the spot, found that Il
wolf had suddenly attacked one OF
them, a valuable animal, and injured
him seriously. The wolf was still
within range Of their guns, but terror
had seized upon the hunters, and they
made a rapid flight homcward. The
horse has since died, from his injuries,
and the wolf still wears his scalp.
Can't some valiant hunter get his
scalp and thus secure the bounty .

PLASTISG.-A landholdcr, says
Cato, should apply himself to planting
his fields while in youth, but he
ought to think long before he builds.
He ought not to think about planting,
but he ought to do it. The fact with
us seems to be, that we do not find
time to plant when we are young and
when we are old we consider it too
late, for we are unwilling to SOW where
we are not likely to reap the harvest
We should at least preserve, if we will
not plant.
