THR SOLDIERS MoNuMENr.-The following
is the resolution Of the Board Of Supervisors
of Muscatine county, in regard to the erection
of the Soldiers Monument. 1t was adopted
about year since, but is published now for
the purpose Of correcting Misrepresentation
in the public mind
WHEREAS, A large number Of those who
have volunteered in Muscatine county to de-
fend our country will fall victims to the raw
ages and incidents of war
AND WHEREAS, AS grateful acknowledge
ment of their services, it is our duty to honor
and perpetuate their memories,
Therefore be it Rcsolued by the Board of
Supercisors of Nusc1tine County, That q
portion of the Court House lot, not exceed
ing four rods square, be appropriated for the
erection of monument As memento of all
those who have volunteered in this county,
who have since died, either on the field, in
the hospitals, in prison, or at home, either
before or after being discharged, or whose
death shall be caused by services rendered
their country.
A GooD OPPoRrUNITY.-Capt. John G..
Reed, formerly of Go. A, 7th Iowa, and Sam
uel Pollock, are enlisting recruits for the 9th
cavalry, now forming at Davenport. This
regiment is to be under command of Colonel
Trumbull, an old and experienced officer, and
one of the best commanders in the army
Capt. Reed is also an experienced officer, and
led his company CALAMITY at the battles of
Fort Donelson, Shiloh and Corinth, in which
sanguinary engagements the 7th took very
prominent part. He was obliged to resign on
account of i'll health, but has entirely recov-
cred and is now anxious to again serve his
country. A better opportunity to enlist in a
good regiment, under good officers has sell
dom been presented, and we advise all con-
templating such step to embrace it.
MAN SHor.-A crazy inmate Of the poor
house, from the neighborhood of Wilton, was
shot, and is feared fatally wounded, by Mr..
Burger, Tuesday night.
The lunatic had broken from confinement
and was wandering around on Mr.. Burgers
farm, adjoining the poor farm, when the
watch dog ran him into an clubhouse. The
dogs loud barking awoke Mr.. B. Discover
ing supposed burglar, he called on him to
come out. Not compromising the order the
lunatic failed to comply, when Mr.. B. shot
him. We did not learn the nature of the
wounds, but it is feared they are mortal.
taxes ARE H1eH.-Taxes are high on Sal
sratus as we'll as on every other article that a
family consumes, but they are not 80 high on
the Chemical SdleYotus. as the Saleratus will
rise your biscuit, etc. If you don't believe
US try it. It IS put up in bright red papers,
| called chemical Saleratus, or Housewife
Favorite."
CATrLE.-Ten cars loaded with cattle pass
ed through this city Wednesday destined for
Chicago. The number of cattle now being
| transported over this road is immense.
~ Vicksburg and Port Hudson having
| fallen, the price of sugar has not yet been
| affected, but that or some other cause has
certainly produced a very great decline in
-four. We know this from the fact that j..
A. BISHOP is selling Moline Flour at Two
Dollars and twenty cents per one hundred
pounds. At former high prices he was SELL
! ing a very large amount of this -four, and at
the present figures his sales, without doubt,
will be doubled. 1t is acknowledged on all
hands that the Moline Winter Wheat Flour
is fully equal to any of the st. Louis fancy
brands of -four, and great deal cheaper.
Their xxx -four made of Spring and Winter
Wheat, is far superior to any Spring Wheat
-four, and is generally considered superior to
any of the ordinary country mill brands Of
Winter Wheat flour.
BISHOP not only sells the Moline Flour (for
which he has the exclusive agency very
low, but has certainly demonstrated that he
can give you more goods, and good goods, for
the dollar than you can get in any other
grocery house in Muscatine. His stock is
always very large, and buyers will be aston
ished to find how low he is selling groceries.
You who want to buy groceries cheap, either
at wholesale or retail, will find Bishops es-
Enlistment nearly opposite the State Bank.
