and reeoncilsd, after 20 long country travelling,
10 this hustle and confusion. was surprised
to see SO many changes and improvements az.
compliahed during an absence Of less than two
wesks. Several very fine buildings have gone
mp from the foundation to the roof, some have
been removed and others remodeled or finished.
Several streets have been opened, few i'm

No doubt merchants and business men feel

by far tho best looking corn in Iowa while 9th.
or grains appeared as well as elsewhere. In
Wisconsin and Illinois the corn ts scattered and
quite backward, not equal at all to that of Min.
nesota, though there will be fair crop should
there be opportunity for ripening. Grain has
improved somewhat and the receipts yesterday
are reported as greater than on any day this
season. 1t is matter Of amusement TO outsiders
that grain buyers and brokers, who infest The
corner Of Clarke and south Water sts., obstruct-
ing very materially the passage Of pedes,risns,
have been arrested and brought before the Po,

it mHy reasonably be hoped that they occupy
less street room or repair to less limited quar-.

CRANES DAM, Aug. II 1859.
Ed EIiPlRE We came here Tuesday
last and have been fishing eyer since, and
for the heneft of those who fish for large
bass we would say that here is the place
where they hold out golden prospects if you
will only hold out yout line The bass are
large, bite readily and there is no scarcity
of good bait South of this though for some
distance the angler is routed by the lawless'
ness of many of the riprorian proprietors
land others who take the liberty of sein-
ing the river every few days, the fish law
seems to be totally disgarded here and il is
more difficult to find an informer than one
who does not recognize the seiners right
Several of the fish we caught outweighed
Bob McCormick's 8 FOUNDER, besides which
very many smaller ones were taken.
We pitched our tent upon green island
beneath the outrageous bougbs of viii.
tened sycamore, in the immediate vicinity,
of a corn field where plenty Of roasting sess
are to be had, and near the house of some
very clever people who kindly loaned us
things we had forgotten to bring along, and
furnished us with cream for our coffee.
We are under very many obligations to
you for the Empire, for rest assured it comes
as a thrice welcome guest to be read after
fishing all day. Tomorrow morning at four
We expect to be ex-Isled from where we
have spent the last few days so pleasantly,
breathing the fresh country air, exposed to
plenty of sunshine, living upon ''ths fat Of
the land9 and sleeping as soupdly as we
ever slept Notwithstanding the desperate
ZOuave charges, Of whole regiments Of Mus.
quitos.
There 10 an abundance of small game alorg
shore and plenty ofsquirrels in the woods,
but the followers Of Nimrod are not likely
to meet with as good success and luck here,
as the Votariss of Isaac WaIten.

TUE HoRsE FAR GRoUNDs THE Grounds are
being rapidly completed. Many Of the stands,
sheds, &C., are already finished, and the track"
is being used for exercise. The ladies will be
delighted TO learn that, in the arrangements of
the grounds, direct reference has been made to
their comfort and convenience. The stands
will be so arranged that ladies and gentlemen
will be removed from the noise and rudeness
which is SO Objectionable on many fair grounds;
and Mr.. Smith has tsken every pains to deserve
the thanks Of the thousands Of ladies who will
doubtless favor the National Horse Fair with
their ch harming presence.
That there will be a great attraction to aIl
during the entire continuance Of the Fair, we
have no doubt; but on the days when the lady
eqestriennes contend for the prizes, the interest

created here, or in the entire west The oc-
casion will far exceed anything ever befors ats
tempted. A large number Of ladies--the wives
aud daughters of our best cltizens--have al
ready sign,fed their intention Of competing for
the prizes. just imagine to yourselves read
ers, If you can, what scene of health, activity,
and charming loveliness will be displayed on
that occasion OF course everybody will want
to see the ladies ride; and every body lOiR see
'em
We continue TO receive information from
hOrsemen In differsnt parts of the Union, who
intend bringing their stock TO the Fair. We
venture that it will be the greatest attraction
ever offered west Of the Alleghenies, and equal
to any Horse Fair ever held anywhere. Day.
ton will arrange to ac commodRte all who come.
