No SPEAKER YEr.-Anothcr week of
Congressional nothingness has come
and gone--no speaker, no business,
nothing but talk. The Democracy
having opened the flood-gates of dis.
cussion, the stream has been pouring
forth in unrestricted flow. 1t would
be as easy to "dam up the waters Of
the Nile with bulrushes," as to stop
an American Congress when the spirit
of talk has once seized upon it. There
have been several ballots for speaker,
but no choice. Mr.. Sherman still lacks
from four to six votes of an election,
and the prospect is no more encourage
ing that he will be able to obtain
them.

Geographical.

Some Of the editors down in the
vicinity of Davenport have a good
deal to say about the Loco River in
Maine. If they will devote trihe OF
their precious time to the study Of
Geography, they may possibly find
that the city of Saco in Maine, is stu.
atcd on one side of the Saco River,
and the city of Biddcford Oh the other
side, directly opposite, and that both
are large manufacturing cities. That
is where the cotton goes to "from
The lower Mississippi, via Cairo, Chi.
cago and the Grand Trunk Railway"
which so annoys our down-the-river
contemporaries. Don't talk about
loco River in Maine," neighbors !!
The Locos were expelled from that
State long ago.

Mr.. EDIroR.-Can you tell me Of
what use it is to have a Republican
County Committee for Floyd county
Such committees have been regularly
appointed from time to time in this
county, but l have never known OF
their doing any thing. Just now it is
important that our county should
choose delegates to represent her in
terests in the State Convention, TO be
holden at Dcs Moincs on the 18th inst,
but hear Of no movement 10 that di.
rcction. What does it mean?

II Clothing trade Of the West comparatively
of small amount, and confined almost exclu-
sively to retail business in the larger towns and
cities alone. Now this line of Goods has become
almost indispensable part of the stock of every
general Dry Goods store from the crowded city to
the cross-road stand Like all changes in trade,
however, this has not been produced except for
the best of reasons. Among these the great
saving of material by cutting large quantity of
garments together-the superior work and speed of
sewing machines in manutacturing--the great
ing of time in waiting for your "turn" at the Tai
lor's-the uncertainty of then getting salts
factory ''ft," and above all tho saving of least
o4e-hdLf the cost of the garment in til price. For
a number of years this has only been part of our
general Dry Goods business, but have made
arrangements TO devote whole house exclu-
siyey to it alone with such lines of Notions and
Furnishing Goods viii be necessary and desirable
in that trade. Believing that the true interest of
the trade will be to sustain in this enterprise
would especially announce that we now have
on hand one of the largest and mosE desirable
stocks of WE'LL MADE CLOTHING that
ever offered TO the trade of the West.
We respectfully solicit call from all old
friends and the trade generally. We charge moth

them. We prepared to sell TO all prompt-time
buyers low as anJ house in the trade. A liberal
discount also made all cash sales.
