Grow and Hraucn.

Republicans will be glad to know tina,
while MIR. Grow repes insult with scorn, he
will NOT place himself on level with any
rufian who may choose to insult him. and
then challenge him when the insult is thrown
back, by acknowledging the duelling oode.
Mr.. Branch sent him challenge, to appease
his wounded honor. From Mr.. Crows re.
ply, we make the following extract:
Regarding dueling as at variance with
the precepts Of the Christian religion and
the sentiments Of Christian people, and it
being prohibited and declared a crime by the
laws enacted by the body of which we are
members, cannot recsgnize it as a justifi-
able mode of settling difficulties among men.
even in cases Of unwarrantable proyocation /.
but my personal rights and the freedom OF
debate guaranteed by the Constitution,
shall defend whenever they are assailed.''

Dc1 M ONES Railroad.
There is one feature in connection with
our Des Mcines road which is very crafty
ing, and will prove of great and solid ad-
vantage to us that is, the locality of the
management. The power which manages
this road is confined TO our own CITY. We
own and control our OWE enterprise. There
is not leading road in Iowa, mot single
road with any extent Of line in operation,--
with the exception of our own, land the
Mt. Pleasant road is managed here also),
that 10 not owned by nonresident stockhold-
ers and proprietors. The roads above us
are owned by people interested in connect
ing eastern lines, and they are managed in a
manner to contribute more particularly to
the interests OF connecting lines, and the
non-residents, than to the interests Of the
localities where they touch the river, and
the country they traverse. The conse-
quence is, that there is great and perpet-
nal complaint Of the convenience and in
terests of our people being sacrificed to the
cupidity Of those who have no interest ia
our towns and our country except in the
mere railroad traffic.
That is not, therefore, the case with our
road. 1t 10 under the control of no foreigr
corporation. Local interests are not liabl.
to be sacrificed to promote tho interests OIL
outsiders. The interests Of our own CITY
and the country through which the road
passes will determine the character OF ii,
arrangements. This 10 q feature OF grea
value. The desire and the policy has beer
to preserve this power in our own hands,
And 1t doubtless will continue to be so pre-.
served, as no circumstances exist or seen
liable to arise which will make it necessary
TO surrender the control of it to others.
The daily Gate City. [volume] (Keokuk, Iowa) 1855-1916, 1860-01-09

The Richmond Enquirer has ssthought bet
ter of it," and will now wait for non-inter-
course with the North till the rest OF the
South gets ready. 1t says that 'If any
State casts itself off from commercial in
tercourse with the North, It subjecis it, peo-
pie to Inconvenience and cant, which may
be quietly submitted to during such an ex-
citement as that which at present exists |;

FIRE.-About O'Clock on Sunday morn
ing last the residence of Rev. g. f. Vets.
pastor Of the German Congregational Church,
on Walnut street, near the Court House, was
destroyed by FIRE. The house was occupied
by three families, who escaped with most Of
their effects. Mr.. Vets, who occupied the
upper apartments, and who owned the build
ing, was the heaviest loser. His valuable
library and much Of his furniture was con
sumed. The loss, we understand, will be
severely felt by him, as he had just succeed
ed by close economy in paying for the prop
erty.
The families Of Christian Otto Cabinet
maker) and John Hine (shoemaker), occu-
plying the basement, saved nearly all their
furniture, though in q damaged condition
There was no insurance on the building or
it's contents.--I Mnscatine Journal, Sd.
