OAKLAND CRY, May 9th, 1861.
EDITOR JOURNAL The patriotic citizens
Of this vicinity wishing to be prepared to
defend their country and its rights against
traitors, assembled a few evenings since and
organized military company, under the
name of the Iowa State Guard. Some fifty
persons enlisted and we expect to set as
many as seventy-fve if not more to join
with us. Shakespeare Mckee was elected
Captain Of the company, VIM. D. Cone, First
Lieutenant and VIM. @. Sheppard, Second
Lieutenant. We have been holding war
meetings every week for some time and the
enthusiasm of the people knows no bounds.
We are all for the Union, tho Stars and the
Stripes. Politics has been cast aside as q
by-gone thing and we now rally as COM
mon people under the "stary flag that waves
in glory We. are determined to do as
much for our country as any other people
and if we should be called upon, the yeo-
many of the "Forks Of the rivers" will give
a good account of themselves in the hour of
strife. Yours, &C., CIvus.

SHARP FINANCIAL Practice. = Western
spectators are preparing to take advantage
Of the scarcity of money and tho secession
feeling in the South, by circulating there
ern State Bonds. These bills will be readily
taken at par in Georgia, and the adjoining
States, for horses. cattle, and other movable
property, which they will take West, where
their value is much increased. A Western
banker declared few days ago, in Washing.
ton, that he could get off million and half
of the deprecated currency in the South,
where it would be worth to him three mil
lions, converted into movable property,
which he would bring to the West.

all hazards, and sustaining the Government
in its efforts to maintain the Union in its in.
