Nilitia.-We direct particular attention
to Order No. 80, Of Adjutaut General BA.
KER, whichis published on first page. II
will be seen that the Militia Law IS to be en-.
forced, and that able bodied men must give
heed to its requirements. Names Of all men
liable to do military duty, who fad to enroll
in some organized militia Company, are to
be reported to the Adjutant- General by the
10th Of September, when he will doubtless
take such steps as will insure obedience to
the law. Other companies must be organ
lied in this place, and throughout the county
let endeayors to shirk the law at once
cease. Mr.. MELENDy has blanks tina. any
person DESTROYS Of forming Company can
procure by calling on him. 1t will be seer
too, that Cavalry Companies are not author
lied and will not be recognized. Do no,
wait TO have the screws put to yor, but walk
up to the captains office promptly.

The Concert.-Thc Juvenile concert last
Tuesday evening, under the management Of
s. MINNIE MARTIN was satisfactory to our
citizens. The large hall was well filled, and
the children acquitted themselves in such
manner as to call out the frequent and loud
applause OF the audience. Miss MARTIN has
peculiar talent for instructing children in
music, and it was surprising to us how she
could learn them so much and train them SO
we'll in the short space Of nine days.
Last night the concert was repeated
The attendance was large though not equal
to that on Tuesday evening, and the audience
was no whit less pleased than on the former
occasion. Some new pieces were sung, and
every one went away praisiny Miss MARTIN
and the chidren. ...

she can secure school Of sufficient size to

Temperance Lecturc.-- On Wednesday
evening Mr.. o. N. DsrwILRR, we'll. known
throughout. the State as a champion Of TEN,
perancc, lcctured in Presbyteria Church.
The audience was small, very insufficient no,
tce having been given that he was to speak
We are sorry that there were no more out,
for he talked TO a purpose. lie took the
ground that there was no evil so great as IN.
tempcrance-yca. that war, famine and pes.
thence combined were not equal in magni-
tudc to it. He traced many of our reverses
in this war to whisky, and dcplorod that so
few Of the commanding officers were total
abstinence men. On visit to Washington
he found that there were but two members
OF the administration who were total-abs,in-
cnce men, and they-Honest ABRAHAM LIN
COLIN and SALMON p. CnAsE. He was glad
to learn that by Dir. CHASE being succeeded
by Biz. EEssEaDEs the number was bot de.
creased. He argued that here was cause for
alarm; that the evil was increasing, and rh,t
we stood in danger Of being engulphcd in
ruin by it. 1t was not the low and the vile
who we're its only victims, but the noble, the
high minded, the best of the land. He
brought the subject right home. He told Of
what he had heard Of Cedar Falls Abroad
lie told us of our house of il!.fa.nc OF our
drinking holes, of our Sunday lows, Of our
boys. Where the carcass was there the buz.
yards gathered. Whisky was the Cause of
our troubles. Hadn't We the moral courage
with law on our side to pat it down: Let
twenty Of our best citizens fully determine
themselves to tolerate the evil no longer, and
with constant zeal and energy fight it, and
his word for it Cedar Falls would soon have
no place where Intoxicating drinks were sold
as beverage. He told us Of Vinton, where
he resides. Il: that village Of ! 200 inhab
itants there was not liquor seller who dared
raise his head and peep as loud as a newly
hatched chicken-there was not p;sce in
Einton where liquor was sold as beverage.
1t might be so in Cedar Falls if the citizens
here would see that the prohibtory law was
enforced as it was in yinton Whisky
was breeder Of Coppcrheais and rebels
4 large majority Of men who do not support
the government we're drinking men. The
best place to look for the disaffected was in
whisky shops. Therefore the love of the old
flag should prompt men to put whisky down.
1t was the worst enemy the Government had
Christianity, humanity and patriotism all
united in demanding the snhjugation Of whis-
ky. The prohibiiory liqsor law Of Iowa was
good law, and II was law to be obcyed.
and he did not think much Of a mans loyal
ty who refused to obey it. If the law was
allowed to remain dead letter we may lose
it-then wo betide US! We could now pro.
tect ourselves--then We would be helpless =
He appealed to all our interests and looked
the matter square in tho face. Whatever
may be said Of his lecture, il surely cannot
be said with any degree Of truth that he
minced his vor,is or Overlooked our siug.

be easily seen by those who should hunt for
her, and laid herself down in the river and

sT The .Snow Flake-The poets and
writer's Of romance often refer to the snow
fake as an emblem Of purity. We never see
the snow fake falling gently to the ground,
but we think Of DeLand & Co.'S Chemical

ces biscuit nearly as light. It's counterfeit.

papers, but the genuine comes in bright red
papers, and is sold by all good groccrs.

The Great Ercursion- is no dis.
count on it, the excursion from Dubuque to
this place last Saturday was big thing"
There were eleven cars, drawn by the mag.
nilicent new engine, D. Willis James, and
every car was damned with sight, seers and
pleasure takers. We learned from Superin-
tendent You've that the train brought in
about eight hundred passengers, who, we
will readily be believed, together with the
hundreds who gathered in our streets to see
and welcome the excursionists, pretty well
filled up our little city. The visitors seemed
to enjoy their two.hours' stay in Cedar Falls
very well. if VIC may judge by smiling phizes,
rafting tongues, and the number Of best rigs
the town affords at their service. The ex.
curSionists got back to Dubuque about eleven
o'clock without any accident Of any kind to
cloud the pleasure Of the day. Come again
