effected partnership, for the prosecution
of the dressing of lumber, and manufac-
ture of sash, blinds, doors, etc., on Ann
street, opposite Graves lumber yard. Hi.
ram Aber has been relieved of his planning
mill at the head Of Ann street, by one of
those tricks of legal legerdemain, which
often trip up the most industrious and en-
ergctic men. He is, however, more salts.
factorily situeted in the new mill, where his
old friends, as well as the old friends of
Messrs. Douglas and Frye, may always find
him and them at work. .s..ssa e.. g..

He goes in for the useful and ornamental
combined, and will send home Immediately
the best assortment Of clocks, silver plated
ware, jewelry, watches, pocket knives, port
monies, fancy goods, &C., ever brought in
to northern Iowa. He has the best of ia
cilities for buying goods cheap, direct
from the manufacturers and importers, and
will sell at less than eastern prices.

Co., who is now in New York, has begun
his fall and winter purchases, and already
several cases Of new goods have been re-
ceived per merchants express lines. As
fast as received, these goods are opened and
temp.ingly displayed by julius, whose
good taste in this matter is universally con.
coded. Should any of the ladies of Nc
Gregor feel interested in seeing the latest
novelties in dress goods, Gas if there were
any such ladies in town. they have now
an excellent opportunity.

information from his brother, that the mer-

cd by the war, and the late calls for COO, 900
men that they have little care for CONNER
cial matters, and manifest little interest in
sales. The quota Of New England will be
furnished under the last call, but probably
through draft.
The commission card Of Terry & Han
nahs, will be found in our advertising col
umss. These gentlemen were formerly
among our most enterprising business men,
and have a large circle of acquaintanccs
who, we have no doubt, will forward con-
signments to them as opportunity offers.
Mr.. Hannahs, who is now in town, will
probably call upon our business men and
invite consignments.
G. w. Harris, now at Prairie du Chen,
has put up the machinery for renovating
and cleansing feathers. The process is
perfect, and only those who have witnessed

grease and filth which can be removed from
one bed. He will remain but a few days.

quantity Of Timothy seed. He will offer
the best price that can be got on the river
north Of St. Louis, for it. See his advcr.
