New Adcsrtisement.-F. A. HoTcnKIss.
Agent, is now prepared to furnish the north
west with everything in the Grocery line
ne gives much of his attention to .iobbing,
and we are confident that our up .USlntry
friends have only to give him a trial to con-
vince themselves that HorcnKIss is the man
for the times and for the well-doing of his
customers. There is no use of dealers buy
ing in the Dubuque or Chicago markets when
they can do as well in Cedar Falls-unless
they are particularly anxious to lose money
We want to see HorcHKlss do well, therefore
we advise people to patronize him still we
do not wish the public to take our word ex-
clusivcly as to the inducements he offers to
purchasers, but would much rather thew
would 60 and ask him about it. If you do
visit him for the purpose of obtaining this
information, he is not the man that will force
you to buy, or grumble if you do as you
please in the matter Some information may
be obtained by reading his new advertise
ment elsewhere in this issue.

The Candiaates.-Yesterday at Waterloo
when the Conservatives withdrew, the Radi
Gals had nominated w. H. CURTIS, of Water
loo, for Representative, and Mr.. Brown, Of
Waterloo, for Sheriff. At the time of going
to press we were unable to learn who the
other candidates are, but will be safe in say.
ing they are Waterloo men.
+. S.-Just as we go to press we learl,
that L. j. HAMMOND, Of Washington township
received the nomination for Treasurer and
Recorder, being conceded to him, as our in.
formant stated, for the purpose Of smoothing
over the matter little.

Volunteer Fund-At the close of the
regular business of the caucus last Tuesday
evening, j. B. Powers, Esq, arose and
stated that Messrs. LAMAN and McCLURE in
their efforts to raise company for Col
TANDEvER's regiment had been to an cx,
pense of something like $50, which amount
came directly out Of their own pockets, and
that there were few little bills around town
unpaid thus incurred, and thought it would
be well for the people to raise the amount,
and not compel Messss. McCLuRE and LAMAN
to pay it. So thought the meeting, the hat
was passed, and the amount 6 1900 col
lectcd on the spot. Mr.. LAMAN left for Camp
Union last Wednesday morning.

another Grand Railroad Ercursion.--
Excursions seem to be contagious. We see
by the following, from the Dubuque Times,
that another has been planned for Monday
next:
Another Grand Railroad Excursion is to come off next
Monday on the Dubuque Sioux City Railroad when
the people In the counties West Of here can visit their
friends at Camp Union. Fare Dubuque and back from
places west OF Manchester for Manchester and places
east to Farley 70 cents for Epworh and Peosta 50 cents
We are fearful that this affair is gotten up
in rather too much Of hurry to be very
successful; but we are assured by conductor
NoRrnuP that its participators will be numer-
GUS and that good time will be had. Those
who wish to take trip to Dubuque, look in
upon military camp, and take day of un-
mixed pleasure we think most certainly ought
to avail themselves of this opportunity.
From the handbill circulated by the Rail-
road company, we learn the following in re-
lation to the Excursion The train will leave
Cedar Falls at $50 A. NJ, and arrive at Du-
buque at - NJ; the returning train will leave
Dubuque at 6 P. M, and arrive at Cedar Falls
at midnight. Those who wish can remain
in Dubuque over night, and their return tick
cts will be good for the regular train on the
10th. There will be no regular passenger
train from this place on Monday. The boys
at Camp Union will be glad to see their
friends before going to the war, and as this
is the last chance that will be offered every
body should avail themselves Of the oppor-
tunlty. Remember tickets for the round
trip only one dollar.

Our New Pen.-Mr. SMITH, of the firm Of
Wilcox SMITH, has the thanks of the whole
office, for presenting the Senior with a splcn-
did gold pen; cause why,-our scrbblings
are now so much more Ineligible than
formerly that the boys do not have to spend
half their time in deciphering our hierogly-
phics, and they say, though our modesty
prevents our asserting to it, that our articles
are spicier than before we got our new pen
You who would have pen that will write
beautifully and talk fluently ON any subject
desired, by simply dipping the point in ink
and holding it over sheet of paper, call on
SMITH and ask for one Of those pens like he
gave us. Do it, you who are always com.
planning that you could never learn to write
deccnt!y.

Great Ditsrence.-Thc ordinary Oint-
mcnts and Liniments, it is we'll known, are
composed of harsh ingredients in their raw
state, consequently are severe and partial in
their operation, and in very many instances
produce serious injury, and seldom benefit.
Sloan's Ointment is scientific compound
of vegetable Extracts which have long been
held in the highest repute for purity, mild
ness, safety, certainty, and thoroughncss,
and when freely and faithfully applied, il
seldom fails to reach the cause and remove
the complaint; hence it gives real and per-
manent relief without the least possible dan.
ger under any circumstances, and is there.
fore rapidly superceding all other external
remedies.

iScoundreltsm.-We learn from the Courier
that some being of internal nature last week
made an attempt to throw conductor CAwLEy's
train from the track, by placinga tie acrossthe
track. The success of the imp was prevented
by drove of cattle being upon the track near
the place where the tic lay and the engineer in
consequence Stacking very considerably the
speed of his train. The cattle did not seem in
clined to obey the whistle and the brakes were
put on, else probably the whole train would
have been untracked. AS it was the loco
motive was thrown from the track. The
miserable rascal who perpctrated the deed is
not known

Is THE CENTRAL PARK COMMISSION CoNsTI-
TUTIoNAI2-We perceive that a resolution was
adopted at the last meeting Of the Board of Al.
dermen requiring the opinion of the Corpora
ton Counsel as to the constitutionality of the
Central Park Commission 1t will be remem-
hered that the Court of Appeals decided in the
Metropolitan Police case that commission to
execute any trust of purely local and NUM-
clpal character should be appointed by local
and municipal authority; and the constitution
alIty of the police commission was only main-
tanned by the fact that its duties extended into
four counties, namely: New York, Kings Rich
mond and Westchcster; hence its authority was
not purely municipal. The Central Park Com
mission. however, is confined in the exercise of
all its duties strictly to the municipality, and there
is, therefore, some force in the argument that it
has not been constitutionalIy created by the APP
pointment Of the Governor. The Croton Board
is appointed by the Mayor. with the approval
of The Aldermen, and the members of the Board
OF Charities and Correction (late Board of Ten
Governors) were appointed by the Comptroller.
The Central Park Commissioners, then, are the
only officials exercising purely local functions
who have received their appointment from Al
sbany We await Judge Bronson's opinion upon
this question, ard we hope to see the matter
tested in the courts.

TuE EDoNY IDOL IN CANADA-We have re-
ceivcG a communication from Hamilton, 9. w.,
in which the writer informs u that there is an
organized body OF five thousand negroes in
Canada West who only await "the sigual OF
civil war between the North and South" before
rendering their services to the North. We
have only TO say in comment that the North
would rot, under any circumstances, accept
the services OF the worthless vagabonds alluded
to in any other capacity Man that OF boot
hlscks. The fugitive slaves who infest Chat
ham and other parts Of Canada have be-
come a nuisance, with which we shall be
very glad TO dispense, whether there be war
or no war.
