RESPECTING
Dr. Christie's
AGUE BALSAM,

Many high minded physicians who are
above the narrow prcjudices which govern too
many of the profession. and are will ng to ac-
knowledge merit wherever found. are using
the Ba'sam in their private practice, with sat
isfaction to themselves and undoul ted benefit
to their patients. One physician writ 9; ~
with confidence recommend the Balsam as su-
pcrior to any other preparation "
Says another: 81 have used it with uni
form success. and can confidently recommend
it for all those complaints for which it is
offered rs remedy"
Once more: 40 my knowledge it has new
disappointed the reasonable expectations Of
those who have used it,
Still another writes: II have no hesitation
in saying that it is a safe, convenient and
very efica cous medicine"
Doctors use it las sensible thing as they can do
F. N. BUTLER, Morenci, Mich. writes.

A TRIP 70 McGREGOR.

Its progress seems to be onward,
not with the faltering timid tread
ofmany of our Western cities, but
at each visit its pace seems to
have been accelerated. There is
no town west of the Mississippi
that seems to have increased so
steadily and rapidly in all the elc-
ments of material wealth, as this
narrow City," Its location IS
such as to make the Northwest
ern portion of this State, and the
southern part of Minnesota, tribu-
tary to its interests. And this To-
cation has created a demand for
business men that has been prompt
ly supplied, by transferring from
the eastern cities to that point,
their most thorough, active, hon.
orable and solid business men.
In such a town, drones are as ma
turally excluded by the activity of
its business men, as they are from
the hive, by the industry of its fru-
gal occupants. The same pros
perity that has marked its progress
since we came to Northern Iowa,
continued for the next two or three
years, will make it the most noted
business town of it's age, west of
the Lakes.
THE TINES
The first object of interest, in
visiting McGregor is glimpse at
the sanctum of the Times and its
indefatigable, successful, and &C
cemplished editor, Col Richard
son. And this interest is none the
less active and earnest on the part
of Western man because envy
has insinuated, and falsely, that
the Times opposes the R. R. inter-
ests of northern Iowa. It is not
however to be denied, that Nc
Gregor has not taken as active a
part in such a project, as would
seem proper to those unaquainted
with her position; but it is not
true that the influence of either the
Times or the city is against us of
the interior. Their course is Just
such as any party would pursue
under similar circumstances, and
has the approval of those, who
know and can appreciate her sit
'uation.
THE McGREGOR HOUSE,
Next demands our attention for
few moments, for who ever goes to
McGreyor without calling on Dur
ham, its popular host! This
house has, now an enviable noto-
riety and will continue to hold a
high position with the travelling
public 80 long as it remains under
its present management. Its en-
>comiums are deserved. Success to
ut.

John r. Buckbee ESQ.,, of the

from the charge of having been a

This charge it appears was prefer

county, then in Cal. Mr. Howlands
statements we certainly can not
attribute to bad motives, yet We
must say that he is mistaken if he
has ever stated that Mr.. Buckbee
ever acted with the Republicans.
The statement of MI. Buckbee, in

is true in every particular.
This statementwe make in justice
to as true Democrat as ever adj

Tanning Mills, and the celebrated
John Deere Plow. Merchants and
business men in the interior,
receiving goods or having ship
ments to make, would do well to
do their business through this
house.
FRANK G. HANNAHS,
In Bass & Grants building,
fronting the Public Square, has
one of the heaviest and best select
ed stocks of Dry Goods, Crockery
and Groceries in the city and at
prices at either wholesale or re-
tail, to successfully compete with
any house in McGregor. Re-
member the place and call on
Frank if you would do justice to
yourself, and patronize a worthy
business man.
W. A. DURHAM,
Of the McGregor House, now
invites us to dine; find the table
as it Invariably is bountcously
supplied with the most delicious
viands; polite and attentive SER
wants in attendance, in short all
that luxury could provide, or
heart desire. This is unquestion-
ably the best kept hotel in the
city, and as reasonable in it's char
ges as any; consequently we adj
wise our friends to SO arrange mat
tiers on leaving, that they may
again become guests Of the Nc
Gregor House.
MARKETS, FINANCES Sc.
There appears to have been a
perfect revolution in the business
world within the last few days.
Wheat has suddenly fallen from
50 cents at McGrcgor, to 50 cts.
with a downward tendency still
further indicated; Pork from 6 and
7 dollars per hundred to 3, and
all other products of the farm in
proportion. Exchange has gone
up from one per cent to seven .
Western Currency secured By
Southern stocks is discounted at
10 per cent. The financial az
ticle Of the Chicago Times s. Her.
aid, in reviewing the causes for
this revulsion gives the Western
business men the following cold
comfort over the prospect.
1t is impossible to say whele this panic vii
end, but we think every business man would
do we'll to prepare for the worst. The fact
that over SIC, 600, GEO of the currency of III
and Wisconsin, is secured on the bonds of the
Southern States places us in a very critical
position; and should the troubles 1T the South
continue the trade of the West must suffer
severely from a decline in the value of these
bonds, and a consequent depreciation in our
currency.
NOT GOOD.

The excess over last year is therefore, in round
numbers, 79s 500 bales and $50 900 over 1857 s.
II is Of course impossible TO fix an average value
upon this enormous amount of cotton. very
large proportion of last years crop was poor in
quality, and so mixed with sand and dirt as to be
almost unsaleable to spinners: on the other hand
il is doubtful, Judging by the Custom House re
turns, whether $50 bale, which Is common esti
mate. really represents the whole amount Melted
by the producers and shippers. At $50 bale, the
value Of last years crop would be 1922 500 900,
which is probably less than the amount actually
received
Nearly the whole of the excess of the crop of
1859 go has been sent to Europe, and mostly to
one port-Liverpool. The consumption of the
United States has not increased materially since
last year, or for some years past. The figures
