EMBALMINa FnE DEAD.--We made some
remarks on the 10th inst, relative to the
smbalming Of the dead by DIR. Prunk, of
this city, who has an office at No. 10
South Market Street We have since
seen letters TO him from gentlemen who
had availed themselves of his services.
One of them---Mr. Wesley Burnett writ
ing from Angola, Ohio, states that the
corpse embalmod for him, "lOoked very
nice, and was perfectly satisfactory. 1t
was in perfect order" He thanked the
doctor for his kindness. Two others,
sent to Indiana, the northern part, gave
as much satisfaction. Mr.. M. NJ. Boat
man, writing from Miles Butler county,
Ohio, sAys-"I arrived at homo Monday
morning, Nov 2, the corpse arrived Tues
day. We had prepared citizens clothes
to redress It; but after opening the coffin,
and finding the corpse in SO nice con-
ditiOn, dressed with the clothes you had
and its winding sheet, all of us con-
cluded II would be unnecessary and UNI
natural TO disturb III SO ne buried 1.
Just as Il was. II looked natural; there
was no offensive OdOr. The many friends
of the deceased visited it all day Wednes-
day, the coffin being kept open all the
time. All protested to be disappointed
TO find the corpse in SO good state OF
preservation, and so unOGensive to look
upon. Now, dear sir, you may feel as
sured that you have the thanks and we'll
wishes of all the friends Of the deceased
for the faithful performance OF the duties
intrusted to your care" This ia, per-
sonally, very complimentary to Dr.
Prunk; but il is also the very best testi-
mony 10 the excellence and advantage OF
his method of embAlming. The corpse
referred to by Mr.. BoAlman was thought
by those who had no proper idea Of DE-
P's system to be impossible TO preserve
In good condition. They were mistaken
as ignorance always is when 1t sets
itself up against the scientific Again
We commend Dr. Prurk to the reader OF
the UMoS, who may have need Of h''
invaluable services.

Hon. George w. Lane, Judge of the
United States District Court for the
Northern and Southern Districts of Ala
bama, died at the CALI House in Louis
vile, on the 18th instant Upon the
evacuation of Huntsville, Ala, last year,
by Gen. Buell., Judge Lane who had be-
come obnoxious TO the rebels by his firm
and outspoken loyalty, took up his res
idence in Louisville, and there awaited
with his family for the time to come
when he could return home and enjoy
domestic and public life in the midst
of bis old friends, and under the
protection of the flag Of his cogn-
try. This has been denied him
and, we doubt not was the most poig-
nAnt regret he entertained when he died
We have known Judge Lane from oul
earliest boyhood. He was an honorable
high-minded gentleman, sincere anc
true hearted friend, jurist of eminent
attainments, and patriot worthy of The
confidence of his country. ~mpoe4

The NATIONAL UNIoN.-This is the title Of
an ably edited and we'll printed newspaper we
have received from Little Rock, Ark. 1t is
Union to the core, and will doubtless exert a
powerful influence for good in that once hot
bed Of treason, the Capital of Arkansas.
From it we learn that Col. Cloud, (brother
of D. G. Cloud, Esq, Of this city, command
er Of the I'd Kansas, has been doing excellent
service in that State. having cleaned large
extent of country Of guerrillas. He has been
made commander of Fl Smith. The Union
thus speaks Of him:
Col. Cloud seems to fully understand the
feelings and wishes of the people of Arkansas
where he has been operating. He is the right
kind of man to command among . people
who need sympathy and encouragement
amidst the overwhelming troubles with which
they are surrounded We hope to hear of
the Colonels complete success, and that he
may live to reap the reward of his labors.-
He has re. urned up the river-we hope to
have the pleasure Of another visit from him
before great while, if consistent with his
duties.

The receipts Of hogs for the forty.eight
hours were 1000 head, and tho bulk OF these
were sold in advance Of arrival, so that there
were few on the market. At the same time
the weather was more favorable for killing,
and with demand in excess of the offtripgs,
prices advanced 25c, closing buoyant at Sc ,25
for l75 to $50 lbs. averages, and $6.50@6,75
for lots averaging 200 lbs. and upward. The
current is altogether in favor Of sellers If
the railroads we're not embarrassed with the
coal business, receipts would be much larger
than they are and if the river rises as is now
hoped, we shall, next week, have. heavier ar.
rivals, but us it is there is strong tendency
to a belief in short crop.
Provisions are held with increased frmness,
and at prices generally above the views Of

A Coop lNsTrruTIeN.-One of the best in.
stitutions in our city is L. & j. McGreer's
pump factory, located ON Mulberry street. in
the old church building east of the Court
House square. About three years ago Nc
Greer's pumps were fret introduced in this
section. Since then they have been so rapid
ly taking the place of everything in the pump
line that their mandatory has increased to
quite wholesale business.
They have taken the first premium at the
Iowa State, and Muscatine and Scott County
Fairs, every time it has been exhibited, as be-
ing the cheapest, most durable, less liabe to
get out Of order, and in fact for being the best
pump in use.
Weare proud TO see such institutions in
our city, So that we can have our own home
to patronize.

REBEL BARBARi1Y.-The barbarous treat.
ment of the rebels towards our wounded at
Cbicamauga is unparalleled in the annals Of
warfare. An Indiana surgeon, taken priso-
ner and since released, says our wounded
were left upon the battlefield several DAYS,
the rebels refusiog to pay them the least at
ton, or to permit our own surgeons to do so.
A letter from private in the 73d Illinois
volunteers says that, after he was wounded,
he lay on the spot where he fell seven days,
without his wound being dressed or a parti-
Gle of nourishmens, except a little boiled
wheat furnished him by q kind-hearted ws-
man living near. This is but one among the
thousands of instances of rebel cruelty TO-
wards the wounded who fell into their hands.

WHEAT TnIEvEs-Oertain portions Of the
county are infested with set of scoundrels
who feloniously appropriate everything trans
portable and come-atable that may be left
within their reach. In the city this class of
petty thieves affect wood piles, clothes lines
and other out of door property; in the
country wheat and corn bins. One night
last week three men from the notorious neigh
borhood of "Stringtown" were caught by
Space Mcintosh carrying off wheat from his
barn near Atalissa. He shot at and wounded
one of th:m when the other two fled, leaving
their sacks and coats, which, by the way, they
can obtain by calling on Mr.. Mcintosh. A
great deal of complaint is being made about
thefts of this description, and stringent meas
ures should be adopted with the thieves when
caught.

about $500 Hogs, and the entered sales to
l0,033. The list Of prices presents higher
range Of figures than that of the preceding
day, and Prime qualities have been in good
demand at fully the quotations then given.
Still We cannot help observing that some OF
our largest packers are out of the market at
present prices, and that all are buying small
or quantities, whilst the general feeling is tina
the prices must come down. This effect has
not, however, been observed On the smaller
receipts of to-day, but there is evidently less
confidence in the market.
Sales range from $4,s5@$5,25.

On the counterfeit the final "E," in the

fw The four pork packing establishments
in this city are now in operation. They employ
collectively about three hundred hands. We
judge from the feeling Of the packers here,
and by their facilities for handling hogs, that
a better market will be established here this
season for hogs than ever before, and are
of the opinion that shippers upon the line of
the railroads leading to Muscatine will find it
much more to their advantage to ship hogs
direct here for sale than elsewhere.

MUsCATINE POST OFFICE.

eW"Paper has advanced cent pound"
Such was the unwecome intelligence brought
to us yesterday by our paper dealer. A cent
seems like small sum, but when aggregated
on the quantity OF paper we use it makes a
large figure on the wrong side of our monthly
cash account. Well, wel--we are glad our
humble sheet is no larger in these times
How our fully-rigged contemporaries stand
the pressure of 16 cents per pound for paper
we are unable to comprehend. The subscrip
ton price for newspapers at present rates
scarcely pays for the paper they are printed
on. Large papers must ensmall and many
small ones will have to suspend or advance
the rates of subscription and ADVERTISING
As for the JOURNAL, We will continue it at
present rates as long as possible, and if it
will not pay must then make another advance,
as we did year ago. We are bound to keep
the machine going, cost what it will.-Daily,
