GREAT DEMOCRATIC nEeTiSG
MENSE ENTHUsIASM.
Speeches Of Eilw oOd and Hebb.

| At an early hour last evening, notwith
standing the fact that large number Of
persons were ia attendance upon the shows
in anotl.e' portion OF the city, large and
mcst enthusiastic crowd assembled at the
Court House to listen to the addresses OF
the Hon James NJ Ellwood, the Democrat
ic candidate for the ofiice of Attorney Gen
eral, and George 5 Hebb, candidate for
Prosecuting Attorney.
The large court room was full to over
flowing-nany persons being obliged to 50
away for want of room-the meeting being
pleasing contrast to the Republican con-
course on the evening previous, when more
than one person tour compliments to MIR.
Whitcomb) hoped that the Demoerats re-
porter was not about, as he would say it
was fizzle.
The meeting was organized by the ap-
pointment of J. w. Churchill Chairman.
The Hon. James ~ Ellwood, being intro
duced TO the meeting, delivered a speech Of
an hour and half in length, showing up in
the most vivid colors the extravaganza and
corruptions Of the present State Admins
tration. He dealt little in defamation, and
never resorted to any oratorical tricks; but
brought down fact after fact, proving each
by the reports of the republican State Off
GERS, with a crushing weight upon the men
who, during the past four years, have pecu-
lated upon the moneys of the people, and
feathered their own nests at the expense Of
the over.burdened tax payers.
We are compelled TO defer heightened
report of his remarks by the lateness of the
hour.
He was followed by Mr. Hebb. in a mas
terly argument upon the State Platform of
the Democratic party and the National pol
itcs. Great enthusiasm was evinced
throughout the meeting, and the speeches
of both gentlemen were repeatedly cheered.

A BRIDGE WANTED.-A person who
passed over the road from Aliens Grove to
this city, yesterday, states to us that he
saw thirty teams loaded with grain and
destined for the Davenport market, detained
at creek some distance from Aliens
Grove 1t appears that there is no bridge
over the creek and that the roads not being
in good condition, the farmers were obliged
to carry large portion of their loads over
on their backs
We are also informed, that the Gmbers for
the construction of the bridge have lain at
the place for length of time, and that the
only reason why it has been built long ago,
is neglet of duty by the road authorities.
To put the bridge together, the necessary
timbers being on the ground, will cost but
little, and IL is unjust that the farmers
should be obliged to carry their grain over
the stream on their backs, when no reason
except the inattention of the proper officers
exists why the bridge should not be at once
constructed Will the officer whose duty
it is to look to these matters, attend to it at
once?

TEXAN CATTLE.-We noticed yes
terday drove of 479 cattle, and about 80
hcrses and colts, which had been driven all
the way from Texas. and were on the way
to Ohio. The distance already travelled 10
some fifteen hundred niles, aud yet the
stock looked remarkably well, and would
compare with our Iowa stock in any par
ticular. The drove left Texas on the 18th
of June, and has been ever since upon the
road. The owners report the business as
rather slow, but pretty sure to win in the
long run. Good six and ons-half feet cattle
in prime order. they said, could be bought
in Texas for an average of fifteen dollars
per head, and all other stock in proportion.
That is shade cheaper than could be done
in this country ct this time; but there are

100000 observation-disclosures W

100000 Observation-Disclosures who
have watched the workings of trade esti-
mate that Davenport has lost $500, 900 worth
of trade in the past six months in the coun-
ties of Clinton and Cedar. This, however,
is not to be the case, if the proper steps are
taken to bring that trade here by railroad
1t never will cross the Wapsie again until
brought over by steam. The figures are
large but they represent the truth. True,
it may be that We have gained trade from
other points, but that is no reason why We
should lose the trade Of that rich country,
which lies in Clinton and Cedar Counties
We must use every means to bring this
back. Much of it can be directed into the
old channel, but some is lost forever Shall
not prompt and spirited action be had in
the matter?
