Third Judicial Distrct-Taylor County-Letter
from the Siate Printer.

from the State Printer.
Since the election discrepancy has been
discovered in the volume of session laws re-
Gently published, by which Taylor County is
entirely LEFT out of the act passed at the las,
session of the Legislature, "creating eleven
judicial Districts, and defining their boun-
darics.' Before the election (perhaps in n
measure owing to the late day at which the
laws were diStributed.) this omission was
no. noticed, and it was generally supposed,
and believed that Taylor County constituted
portion of the Third judicial District
Acting upon this suppositlon, or understand
ing, the people of Taylor County voted for
District officers in the Sd District. Since
the discovery of this discrepancy, the ques-
ton has been mooted, as to whether Taylor
County appears in the original aet as part
of the Sd District? And If SO, whether, in
consequence of the omission aforesaid, the
vote of Taylor County would have 10 be
thrown GU: the count in the canvass of vet S
for officers in this Judicial District? For
The purpose of ascer,aing whether Taylor
County was virtually portion of the Sd
District, Mr.. G. NJ. DODGE addressed II letter
TO the Secretary Of State, and another to the
State Printer, relative to the mootcd points
before spoken Of, from the latter of which
he received the sub Joined letter. The ground
assumed below tallics with our preconceivcd
opinions in this matter, and We have no doubt
those whose duty it is pass upon these ques-
tons, Will hold and decide that the dlscrep-
ancy referred to Sin no wise affects the va
lidity Of the law" under which the election
was held.

The Sorghum Question.

The papers throughout the State are max
ing faithful reports of the success that has
attended the cultivation of the Chinese Su-
gar Cane in their respective regions. We
have read with no little interest, these re-
ports, and confess that the experiment has
met with far greater success than we ever
anticipated it would.
We are satisfied now that Iowa can man
ufacture her own molasses, Independent of
her southern sisters. Should not this fact
stimulate and encourage our people to re-
newed efforts to manufacture mo!asses next
summer, equal in amount to the demand that
will be made for it, and superior in quality
to that manufactured in the South. Sever
al farmers in this county engaged largely
the past season in the cultivation of the cane,
the result being good crop; but unfortu-
nately it was frosted before mills could be
obtained for crushing it, and consequently
the molasses have a sour and unpleasant
taste.
However, nothing daunted, the very ones
who have been the heaviest losers are deter
mined to try it again next season, when, we
venture to say, mat Madison county will
manufacture all the molasses she will need
for her own consumption.-W intersett

State Aid to Acknowledgement


The different newspapers of the State are
now speaking out about the proposed extern
sion Of State aid to, Railroads. The pre-
papers, is n feeling of distrust towards
the proposition. Political feeling appar.
emily has but little to do with positions
taken, as we find Democratic and Repub-
lican papers, setting forth the same senti-
ments.
We would suggest that some of our hreth-
rem of the press are acting rather hastily
In our opinion, and we give it for what it
may be worth, no harm can arise from hay.
ing the subject duly presented to the people,
but as we understand it, no distinct, definite
plan has yet been proposed. Would it not
then be as well, If not better, to whit and
see what the proposition is before we array
ourselves for or against it. To fight it now
may be fighting nothing but myth, a
mere shadow, without any substance or
vitality.
The holding Of a State Railroad Conven-
ton will do much good. Such a convention
cannot help doing good, and hence we are
warmly in favor Of holding lt-of bringing to-
gcther citizens from the different counties in
the State, for the purpose of consulting and
counselins together in regard to the great
Railroad interests Of Iowa. Central and
Western Iowa are peculiarly interested in
this Cow ention, and the different counties
should, and will, we trust, send up their best
and strongest men. Men of all parties,
creeds and faith, should be there-those in
favor of State aid and those opposed thereto
"a free, frank expression Of views and
opinions should be made--and then the Con-
vention will perhaps be able to present
plan for pushing forward the work upon our
Railroads. g .....
When definite plan, some hing plain and
tangible, is presented to the people, then we
can all take such positions, AS our Judge
ments and convictions dictate. Let us have
the Convention by all means.-Des Moines
Journal.

The Des Moines Siotesm an, speaking of the
efforts Of theDubuque lawyers to induce the
State to loan its credit to the Railroad Com
panies to the amount of $40, 100000, gives
''our BES"a rap over the knucklss after this
fashion:
"When such rotten and exploded Fed
eral- Wing doctrine can be cxpoused and ex-
humed from its rotten sculpture by men so
honored and believed in as Ben NJ. Samuels.
then it is time for all of US to overhaul our
political knapsucks. Certainly Ben must
have lost linch-pin out of Ia old Demo-
cratic Wagon which he guided with so bold
a hand in 1857. Where is that Democratic
Flag which he so proudly told Us, on accept
the nomination, no would never permit to
trail in the dust! ..,.' ...

MR. Ep.roR:-We arrived here night be-
fore last, and have been waiting here to
recruit our stock and to enable some of the
party, who went back TO Kearney to buy
cattle, to ovcrtakc us.
We lost thirteen head Of cattle, about
forty miles this side of Fort Kcarney, and
sent back Messrs. lIIGLEY, HAZARD and
REED, to buy others.
Mr.. l!,GLEv overlook Us nght before last,
and reported that the cattle and the other
bows were behind with WILLIAMS & BLAKE's
train. HAZARD had the acuc and REED has
collar bone and shoulder blade broken
Under the circumstances We thought it best to
remain here and send back for them. JouS
GRAVES with the mule team and Foster and
KNIGHT were accordingly sent back, and
have returned since | commenced writing,
bringing with them the invalids and seven
head of cattle.
With these, think we shall be able to
get through without trouble.
have had no trouble in the train since
SMITH left with his party. 1t is part of
our agreement, that in case any one in the
train being disabled from proceeding, the
others shall bel p him through.
At the time the cattle stampeded, SMITH
was so fortunate Ms to recover all of his,
and he then concluded to 90 ahead.
Colonel LANDER, Superintendent of the
Pacific Wagon Road, passed down with his
train yesterday. He has constructed the
road from the South Pass to Fort Hall, in
less than one har the time, and at one half
the expsnse estimated by the Department at
Washington.
We met party of fifteen men from
Cherry Creek, 4 few days since. They were
going into the States to winter, but all
expected to return in the spring. They had
the dust, and assured US that the mines
would pay well. All are making from three
to twelve dollars per day, and some much
more.
We have had no sickness in the train,
cxcep: aguc, and are, | think, getting along
finely.
Preston, DlLTEs, HOLLOWAY, RITTER,
DLLlN, CLARK, COLE, HICKEY aad LUsBY,
have been shaking, and REED was thrown
from his horse and injured as before stated.
We have been travelling among the Indians
for the past week. They are the Chevennes
and Ogallallah Sioux. They are friendly,
but great beggars and not to be trusted.
They are well supplied with ponies, robes,
guns, and the finest lodges l ever saw
They are made Of skins, tanned white as
cloth, and many Of them are twenty feet
in diameter. They have driven all the
buffalo out of the valley, and we were
without fresh meat for several days, but
last night DILrEs, CRUISE and McDoxALp,
killed one in the hills, about three miles
from camp.
We start at one o'clock, and must now
close and make preparations for moving.
Very Truly, Yours,

Iowa CrY, Oct. 18th, '5S.
Mrssss. TD,ToRs The Directors Of the
State Bank Of Iowa, have just finished Or
ganising and closed their session.
Al their doiDgs are matters OF pubic
interest, will briefly give you the substance
Of their proceedings thaeyou may make them
public il you wish. The following Direct
ors were present: Richard Benson, from the
DUBUQUE Branch Hiram Price, from the
Davenport Branch Chester Weed, from the
Muscatine Branch; Sam. F. Miller, from the
Keokuk Branch T. Whiting, from the Mt.
Pleasant Branch; VIM. 7. Smith, from the
Oskaloosa Branch; p. NJ. Cassiday, from the
Des Moines Branch; S. j. Kirkwood, from
the Iowa City Branch; Hoyt Sherman and
Benz. Lake on the part of the State. s.
S. j. Kirkwood was appointed temporary
Chairman, and the Board then proceeded to
adopt set OF by Jaws and to fix tho SALARY
Of the officers. The Offices of Secretary and
Register were, ss matter OF economy, con-
solidated, and Elihu Baker elected to fill the
place, his salary being previously fixed at
$500 per annum. The salary OF the
President-wns fixed at $1,000, and his ne
cessary travelling expenses; and Chester
Weed, Esq, Of Muscatine, was elected to
that Office. TX, ~
w. I. Smith, Esq, of Oskaloosa, was
elected Vice President, and he and Hiram
Price, Of Davenport, and S. J. Kirkwood,
Of Iowa City, constitute an Executive Com
mittee. ...r. .-.
Messrs. Sherman and Price were appoin-
ted committee to proceed to New York
and procure the engravings for our Bank
notes. &'l.. z e..
1t is probable they will be ready for issue
by the 18th Of December next at the latest.
The Board of the State Bank Directors
having the control Of the amount of notes
to be issued for circulation, adopted o
resolution that, for the present, no greater
amount should be issued than the coin paid
in. II q. .,.s. .a-..-r @ ..aEh
There were three applications for new
branches, one of which wasrcjected for want
of legal sufliciency in the papers presented F;
and committees were appointed to examine
the other two, namely one at Washington,
and one at Camanche.
The utmost harmony prevailed throughout
the entire session, and the caution and DELHI
Grafton with which the proceedings were
conducted were the best guarantees of the
success of this new institution in our State;
and the sure foundation of the confidence it
will secure from the people. NJ.

CO The Burlington Hawkeye, in discuss.

CO The Burlington Hamkeye, in discuss
ing the propriety of State aid to our various
railroads says:
We are frequently referred to Missouri as
a standing evidence of the policy of creating
a large State debt for the benefit of Railroad
Companies. The facts show that Missouri
with millions of acres Of land exposed for
sale under the graduation law for II 10
cents per acre--with the prevalent idea that
she would ina few years become free State,
and with her railroads in process of construc-
ton has at no time increased in population
as fast as Iowa, and at this time the increase
in Iowa is represented to be rs two to one in
Missouri. Every sensible man knows that
it was cheap lands that drew population to
Missouri during the past two years, and not
railroads. These lands are now exhausted,
the prospect Of Mssouri's suddenly becoln-
ing free State is not as bright as it was,
and population is again tending towards
Iowa. Missouri has not felt the bad effect
Of her large and still increasing State debt,
but it will come upon her one of these days
with crushing power.

aising that whatever the verdict, we shall

missing that whatever the verdict, we shall
endeavor to be content. ~ Il
The fulminations Of the Oracle relative
to concentrating our forces for the early
completion Of the Southern Roads and that
aid road "will be far more useful and ad-
vantageous than the other road,' we pass
by as mere badinage, INDUCED in without a
why or wherefore, save to give vent to a
long surcharged splenetic vein. We do not
wish to be understood as in anywise opposing
the construction of the Southern Road, but
we do object to faelisds opposition to the
Eastern Road fos|the purpose Of aiding the
southern, ~a1d rice rersa. We believe both
roals%;ill be built, bu. have not given, and
do not intend to give, in our adherence to
the policy of aiding either road as opposed
or antagonistic to the other.
In conclusion, we must say the course
pursued by .:solne Of our over-cautlous
citizens" towards the NJ. & NJ. Railroad
Company in consequence of their commen-
cling work at this end of tho route, without
FIRST having submitted to the imposition OF
new and uncalled-for conditions in regard
to the proposed issue Of Bonds, is one not
over and above calculated to inspire the
Company with desire to aid US by pushing
the work ahead vigorously. as has been
truly said, by our neighbor of the Bugle
::we see no way how our Railroad can be
built, unless we are willing to repose a little
confidence in the Company" We must
therefore "cease our croakings" about the
:sdanger Of issuing the bonds" and at once
extend to the Company all the aid we have
promised them. Repeated and oft assever-
a,ed denuuciasious of the Company-idIe
vaporing in regard to broken pledses-and
solemn harangues and doleful diatribes upon
the possibility Of the Company's acting in
bad faith towards this County, all alike
unwarranted by the premises, and very i'll
timed, are, in our humble opinion prejudicial
to the best interests of the County, and if
persisted in, will have much to do with
alternating what little good opinion the
Company may have formed of the people OF
this County, in consequence Of their ready
response to the proposition of the Company
for aid, some months since; and of retard-
ing for months, nay, years, the completion
Of the Road.
