The Guards to March on Monday

Capt LEE hes been notified by Col
WoRTHINGToN, that the Guards will
probably receive notice to move to the
rendezvous at Burlington on Monday
next. That is giving the boys but short
notice, but we think they will be ready

the brave fellows into the field equipped
as comfortable as possible. Send them
away with hearts so warmed by kindness
and attention that they will long to re-
turn to us when their noble efforts fol-
their country's cause are no longer need.

ertions to know that the affection of the
community follow them, and that our
hearts are tender with solicitude fol
them. Deal nobly with them-they de-

Board of Supervisors.

Gv The Hamilton Freeman says that
combined and systematic effort will
be made in the next legislature to repeal
the Supervisor system and reinstate the
old County Judge despotism. There is
no doubt that the next legislature, if it
copies after the last, might easily be in
duced to go back to the system of Ly-
curgus, or even to the most primitive
known to history. After the attack, in
the extra session, upon the revenue law,
decreasing the penalties at the very time
that great complaint was being made OF
its lack of severity, we are willing to be
lieve that the Solons who make our laws
are anxious to return to the one man
power Probably the people will see
that little more of the spirit of pro :
gress is instilled into their representa-
tons before they send them to Des

Public Meeting.

AS the Independence Guards have
been accepted by the Governor Of this
State to form part Of the 9Th regiment OF
Iowa volunteers. and as the Governor has
recommended the people of the county
to give the company temporary uni
form, which may hereafter be used as a
fatigue dress, and conduce to the comfort
Of the company; and as it will also be
necessary to provide for the keeping of
many of the members of the company
until they are ordered to the rendezvous
at Burlington, we therefore invite the
people of Buchanan County to meet at
the Court House in Independence on
Tuesday Evening, July Cd, to take steps
to provide the necessary means for these

Wool.
Eg Mr.. JOHN SEXTON is now enga-
ged in buying wool, and within few
days has purchased about $500 pounds.
He has between two and three thousand
pounds more engaged, nearly all from
residents of this county. 1t is probably
safe to put the yield of wool the present
season, in this county, at 5000 pounds.
This is but the beginning Of business
which we think will do much hereafter
towards enriching our county. Woods
are much lower than they were last year.
The coarser kinds only are in demand,
and bring 25@28 cents for washed, in
in Chicago.
