RRRArTA.-In noticing yesterday,
that contribution box, at the Post Office.
We said it was for the Mount Vernon fund
We should have said the Washington
Monument fund. This is q very worthy
object. aud we hope our citizens will pat
ronize it.
Another mistake occurred in an item en-.
titled Large Shipments, in which We said
forty thousand bushels of Barley were ship>
ped by Graham 4 Kepner to Pittsburg. 1t
should have been four thousand bushels
These errors will occur occasionally.

RUNAWAY. - NARROW ESCAPE.
Yesterday afternoon IS little boy. .
nephew Of l. F. Parker Eco, was driving
down Harrison street hill in light coun.
try wagon. with Mr.. Parker's carriage
horse, and when about eighth street, the
horse became scared and started on brisk
run. The little fellow held on to the reins
manfully and screamed at the top of his
voice, the horse running at its greatest
speed. until they got to the corner Of Third
street. where the boy in attempting to turn
was thrown out, striking on . harrow lay
ing at the carrige shop. and the body Of
the wagon turned completely over and fell
on the top Of him. A crowd soon gathered
and 1t was thought the little fellow was
killed. but he soon regained his feet and
toted off home. apparently not much injur-
ed. It vas, however, . narrow escape
from death.

gentleman and sound Democrat, J. M Ell
wood Esq Mr.. E. is on his way home af-
ter a campaign of several weeks. during
which time he has spread out the facts and
figures before the people in the most able
and convincing manner. No man in Iowa
has done more hard work in the cause of
Democracy during the campaign, nor has the
course ofany speaker been crowned with
greater success. Mr. E. now retires to his

ARE You READY YET.-The Gazette
has frequently promised that before the
day Of election. it would publish that won
derful speech which Jim Harlan said he
made before the late Black Republican
State Convention, but which he didn't
Have the editors of the Gazette got ready to
fulfil their promise ? Of course not They
don't dare make any such publication. Any
other matter, whatsoever, would be sooner
published by the Gazette than Harlan's
speech. His speeches have . contrary ef
feet from what they are intimated to have
and Harlan is fast getting into bad repute.
The FIREMEN's REvIEw.-At two
o'clock yesterday afternoon, the Fire De.
partment turned out, with Storms Brass
Band at their head, for the emi.Annual
Review and Parade. The review took
place on the levee. and from there the com.
panies paraded through town Q while and
then proceeded to the furniture factory near
the bridge, where trial of the machines
was had and some tall squirting done. after
which they returned to the engine houses
and dispersed. The companies looked we'll
and seemed to enjoy themselves best when
working at the machines. We are convinc.
ed that Davenport can boast Of q good,
faithful Fire Department. "Long may

Facts about Cattle.

The following items are from recent is.
sue Of the y. Y, Tribune
Itisa fact that all domestic animals can
be improved in size and value. One hun.
drcd and fly years ago, the average weight
OF cattle at the Smiihfeld market was mo-,
over $40 pounds, and tha: Of sheep .
pounds. Now the average weight OF the
former is over zoo pounds, and Vt the latter
80 pounds.
The average weight Of cattle, properly
termed bccycs, in the New York market, is
about 100 lb,., and sheep jOlbs.
The average live weight II the heaviest
drove Of bcevcs, 100 in number, ever brought,
to this market. was 2,Oj7 pounds, weighed
from dry feeding in Illinois, last spring.
The mode Of selling cattle in New York is
at 50 much Per pound Tor the estimated
weight Of mea, contained in the fore quar-.
iers. The estimation is mad, upon the live
weight Of cattle as follows
A droyer in buying lot Of grass'ied,

culate to get an estimate Of over onc-half
here Of the live weigh, shcrc. That is, IT

Few persons arc at all aware Of the evil

lying in their bankers hands 50 oslentious'

small sums long overdue, but out oi which
the proper owners are kop, by various de-
vices. With some IL is mere careessncss,
with Others settled principle, that IL is
never safe or wise to pay any SUN Of mon

The Queen Of England Is notorious for
her prompt paymcn, of all accounts. Not
long since, on the marriage Of her daughter
she employed distinguished artist, at the
price OF about two hundred dollars, TO de.

occasion. A piece Of forgetiulnes' or mis-
take. by which that artist wa, left unpaid

solutc want in g'rret. She was told to
call at the palace at u given hour for pay
ment. But the Queen had gone out aud
forgotten to leave the money, or an order to
pay with the proper officer. She was told
to call again and again and again. At last
nervous as lady Of refined sensibilisies
would be-, hot and weary with long walk,
she was taken sick with fever, and died
before the money came, in absolute want.
In the time Of George the H., tradesmen's
bills TO the amount OF hundreds OF thous.
ands of dollars were left unpaid for years.
The father of the present Queen Of Eng

The Grain Crop of Ohio.

We publish this morning complete eI-
hibit Of the amount Of wheat. corn and oats
produced in Ohio in 1858, prepared from
Official returns made 10 the Auditor Of State.
This information is highly interesting, COM
Ing, as it does, at this time, when il is 90
important to compare the product Of the
harves, Of 1859 with that Of previous years.
II will he seen that the whole number Of
acres under wheat in 1858, was ,695 ,il2,
producing l7,655.4S bushels, or an aver.
age OF 10 2.5 bushels to the acre. The gen.
cral impression is, that one.third more land
was planted the past season than IN the pre-
,ious year. II Is safe, we think, TO estimate
the number Of acres at 600, 900. TIE pro-
duct per acre, after making allowance Tor
the frosted districts. may he stated at ffleen
bushels The yield is admitted to be better
than in 1857, when !, was within fraction
Of fourteen bushels. The crop this year /.
also very superior in quality. We may,
therefore, sot the crop OF 1859 down at SO,-
COO 900 bushels Of whea, Of excellent quail.
". against IL ,OOO. 900 bushels OF ordinary
quality last year, and 81 ,OOO,O 600 bushels in
ls57.
Corn WI" also very light last year, and
the total yield on l,s35, l3S acres planted
being only so, sos, $50 bushels, against So.
$50, lSG bushels on a,25i ,I2i acres in 1857.
Tho average las, year was % IS to tho
acre, against SO 5-S in 1857. This season
the number Of acre. planted Is fully up to
that Of 1857, and probably greater. We
can hardly fail, therefore, With ANYTHING
like good weather from this time ont, to
realize much larger crop than wa, secured
last year.
As regards oats, tho figures show wha,
had already been proved, that the crop las,
year came near being an entire failure. This
year, it is generally believed, the yield Is a
full average one. (CncInua.i Gazette.
