Esy JESSE CLEMENT, Of the Dubuque
Times, was recently here, and writes to
his paper, respecting this place, as fol-
lows:
ISDEPENDENoE, BUCHANAN Co.--The compile
ton of the Dubuque & Sioux City Railroad
through Buchanan County, two years ago,
gave the seat of justice vigorous push in adj
vance. During the last two years several
brick stores, two and three stories high, and
some of them more than hundred feet deep,
have been completed and filled with merchan-
disc and fine dwelling houses have gone up
by the scores. Three or four warehouses have
been erected at the depot ; others are progress
ing, and everything indicates u healthy state
of business at independence. The railroad
did not stop there long enough to make the
town get ahead of wants of the country. Pop
ulation continued to increase, and buildings to
rise, after the road was open to Jesup, as well
as before.
The Wapsipinicon runs through the village
of Independence, and affords good water power
there, which is partially improved; thestowr
is centrally located as it regards the county il
has no rival for the county seat is and always
must be the principal point of business in the
county .and must necessarily become a large
town som day. 1t now has little less than
two thousand inhabitants.

a Drunken Row.

Gy- Our village was scandalized, on
Sunday afternoon last,by drunken row,
result ing in damage to a rum-shop, and to
the ad-pieces of its keeper and the as
saulting party. An Irishman, named
JouN CASEY, claiming that CHAs. DEsrI-
VAL, alias +" French CHARLEY" the saloon
keeper, owed him some drinks which the
latter would not pay, commenced throw
ing things around indiscriminately, dri-
wing FESTIVAL out Of doors. DEsTIyAL
went to his wood pile, got an axe, and
with it forced CASEY into the street. Ca
sEY then commenced vigorous assault
upon the large glass windows of the sa-
loon, smashing them into smithereens,"
for which pastime, we understand, he
was knocked down once or twice with
the axe by DEsrIvAL. They finally
clenched, and had general rough and
tumble time of it, ending in both get
ting badly punished, and bloody. Con-
stable CLIFFORD finally arrested CASEY,
ard, with the assistance of Deputy Sher.
if WEsrrALL, took him to Jail. For our
part, we think the liquor seller much the
more culpable, and much the more wor-
thy of arrest, in this case. CASEY we
know to be a quiet. mild, gentlemanly,
and very industrious man, when he is
sober. But liquor seems to make a de-
mon of him. Were it mol for the allure
men,s which such fellows as this DEsrI.
VAL throw out to him in defiance of law,
he would be good citizen and a good
provider for his family. II these men
will sell him poison to craze his brain,
they must expect to suffer from his IA.
wings. They, not he, are the guilty ones.
