Two Professors.
MAPEs, the great Agricultural sacan says
that killing potatoes only makes the vines
grow and causes the crop to be "small pota-
toes" This suits our idea of the eternal
fitness of things and henceforth the mur-
phies we raise (having eyes of their OWN
can look out for themselves. Prof. Mapes
is a public benefactor because he has dis
covered labor-saving principle!
HALL, in his popular Journal Of Health,
says it is very deleterious to health for per-
sons ito sleep together" Hall does not
suit US SO well as Mapes nor do we believe
the single-bed theory will be generally
adopted by the warm-hearted sons and
daughters of E Pzuribus Uaum. }. particu-
larly is the theory Objectionable in cold
country. Only imagine Benedict ten days
after marriage, listening of December
night, to an argument from Prof Hall upon
the unhealthiness Of allowing ''the alabaster
neck of Jemima Jane to rest upon the
arm with which the said Benedict had sworn
to protect and defend her! Tho idea is
preposterous.

Grand Jury of Clayton Co.

OraMO jury OF clayton Co.
We are favored by friend with the fol-
lowing Report of the Grand Jury at it's late
session at Garnavillo:
To the Hon. o. w. CRARY, County Judge
Of Clayton Co., Io,oa::
The undersigned members of the Grand
Jury for the county aforesaid, hereby repre-
sent to your Honor that we have examined
into the condition of the public buildings
belonging to the county, and find them in a
very unsatisfactory condition. The county
Jail, which answered the purpose whilst
the population and business of the county
was very small, is now inadequate to sup
ply the necessary accommodations for the
safe keeping Of the large and increasing
number of prisoners, requiring confinement
.tiicrein. II Is n6t only unsafe place OF
confinement, requiring at times quite large
expenditure in the employment of watch
to guard it at night but it is also an un-
healthy place Of confinement, wholly UNI
worthy the spirit Of enlightened humanity
which characterizes the protective and re-
formatory legislation of the present age
The cells, two in number, are small and
badly ventilated; and persons incarcerated
therein, whether convicted of an olfense,
or merely charged with the commission oil
crime and awaiting trial, and perhaps wholly
guiltless of otfense, are very liable to contract
disease that will shortly ultimate in death
We find also that there is great need of a
Court House and offices for the County
Judge, Clerk, Treasurer, Recorder, &c
| We deem it Of the utmost importance that
| our county records be deposited in safe
place, and not be longer subjected to the
| risk Of loss and destruction by removals
from place to place about the county, and
| being deposited in buildings exposed to fire
| We therefore recommend to your Honor t.
take necessary steps for the erection of :
county Jail and Court House as soon al
practicable, believing it to be for the best
interests of the county that they be com
pleted at as early day as possible

Weather, Markets, &c.
For the past week the market for wheat
has been under excitement On the day
Of our last issue wheat sold as high as

to rs cents where it has since remained
The weather is good, the river falling and
crops reported as unusually fine looking.
On Monday about 1000 bushels Of Wheat
were sold at l, to 1,05 for new, and ], 10 to
1,25 for old; Corn, shelled, 70 to 10; Oats
40 to 30. On Tuesday morning buyers
were in fog and disposed to hold or
The news by the Vanderbilt stimulated
prices little and an advance on wheat was
the consequence. 1t would not surprise us
to learn that wild cat figures win be reached
again in day or two. At Milwaukee and
Chicago the Vanderbilt set wheat up II
cents, but it is now thought that there is
too much grain in Europe to justify us in
expecting any foreign demand, and hence
large operators are fearful.

Obliged.

HOWARD Of the Garnavillo Journal, was
here last week, and in describing his visit he
"does" our town handsomely, as follows:
"McGrcgor is decidedly fast town, and
fast people inhabit it. We venture to say
there is really more business done there
than in all the rest of the towns in the
county. The reason is obvious; it is the
most natural point for business on the river,
the whole of the trade of the western coun-
ties ccnters there and it is the outlet of the
business of large portion of Northern
Iowa. The future of McGregor is not hard
to determine, for with all these advantages
the town cannot fail of becoming place of
importance to the commercial and farming
portion of the surrounding county. If the
natural advantages for building were as
good as Other towns in the county, it would
be dangerous rival to Dubuque; which
city does only 50 much more business than
McGregor than she is largcr-the COMPARE
son would be much in favor of the latter
place, could the whole amount of business
in the two places be ascertained"
