The regular trains OH the Dubuque,
NJ. 4 w. II. r., from Dubuque to
Springville, have been stopped by mob
at Anamosa, by threats to tear up the
track and do other damage to the road.

cradle damage through the agency Of
army worms, cbintz bugs, and rust.
There are many fielde, however, that

The prospect for heavy corn crop is
unusually good. The wheat, oats, pota-

Arrangements have been made to place
a calcium light on Fortress Monroe, for
the purpose of guarding against sudden
night attacks, as we'll as to make the
blockade more etfectnal We suggest
that if each of our forts and coast-guard
vessels were furnished with one of these
lights they ght be made very useful
for similar purpose. For night move

valuable, enatling the accommodating
party to scan the country for long

BUTLER's SHREwDNEss.--Ap probable
truthful story Of one Of Ben Buffers
professional freaks is told by a young
factory girl, formerly employed in one
of the Lowell mills. She had been dis
charged, aud the corporation refusing to
pay her, she sought legal redress and
retained MIR. Butler for her counsel.
He listened to her case with much in
terest, and afterwards consulted the rep.
resentative OF the corporation, who still
refused to pay the girl her wages. But.
Ter then issued writ, and attached the
main water-wheel OF the establishment
and by bringing the whole mandatory
to stop, the corporation, rather than
allow their mills to remain idle and wait
the laws delay, paid the girl her wages
and lesumed operations.
