Another yeaf IN the history Of the Sandusly
County Bible Society has closed, and i bccorues
my duty as its Secretary, TO submit a brief
statement Of what has been done during the year
The Society has passed thfougha year OF un-
precedented excitement and trial, Il affords us,
however manifest occasion for gratitude 10 the
Giver of all Good that his blessing has followed
our work throuRha year Of such peculiar diff I
culties and trial. So far from tho cause Ian
gushing in our midst, IL has gone steadily for
ward despite the numerous Obstacles in its way.
One year ago the Board Of Managers agreed 10
canvass The county, during the year; a com
mittee was appointed to secure suitable Agent.
Rev. NJ Schdslct wasemployod who entered up
on the work the last of August In consequence
of sickness in his family, he has pot been able to
devote but small portion of his time to the
work. He visited 574 families Of whom 50 were
found destitute Of n whole Bible-which would
be one family III II living without Bible Ia
their dwellings. The Agent obtained on sub
scription $lO2, Of this about $50 were paid dom;
leaving on subscription TO be paid $72 Books
were sold by the Agent to the amount Of S96,64.
Books donated 10 supply the destitute, $ll,4l---
making the whole amount of books distributed,
$ll0,05. sf
The above report indicates that the time has
fully arrived for thorough exploration OF the
county, and we trust that the work win be pros
ecuted until every family within our entire field
has been visited, and contributions s6icited, and
the Biblical wants of the destitute supplied Let
us not be limited TO our territory. The field is
the world. God, in his providence, has opened
the way in all lands for the introduction Of the
Scripture May we not bear our part in car
rying the Word of Life to all lands, That are now
Write TO the harvest. And may it not be said
for want of effort our part, that every human
being in the wide world has not q Bible to live
By and Bible to die BY

War telegram requesting me to raise, as soon as
practicable the United States service for three
years or during the war, five regiments Of volun-
teer infantry. being a part of the quota Of this
State under the late call of the President for SoO
900 men, I he preservation of the Union, the
perpetuity of our government, the honor of our
State demand that this requ isition should be
plomptly met. Our harvest is upon us and We
| have feared lack of force to secure it. But We
| must initiate our brave Iowa boys in the field,
meet new emergencies with new exertions. Our
| old men and our boys, unfit for war, if need be,
our women, must help to gather harvests while
| those able to bear arms 60 forth to aid their
brave brethren in the field. The necessity is ur-
gent. Our national existence is ut stake. The
moro promptly the President is furnished the
needed troops the more speedily will this unholy
rebellion be crushed, and the blessings of peace
| again visit our land. Until then We must expect
the hardships and privatons Of war.
The time has ccme when men must make ~
many have already made sacrifices of ease comfort
! and business for the cause Of the country.
The enemy, by a sweeping conscription, have
arms. Our government has as yet relied upon
the volunteer action Of our citizens. But if need
be, the same energies must be exsrted to preserve
our government that traitors using to destroy
it. 70 simplify and systemize the raising Of these
regiments, l have assigned one to each Of the lst
p, Sd and 4th Congressional Districts and to the
5.h and 9Th together. This will prevent inter-
ference in recruiting and enable those from the
