OVERWHELMING IN IOWA.

GAINESVILLE, BUTLER Co., Iowa. Jan. 9Th, 1854.
Ed. DUBUQUE TiMEs-Dear Sir. In your
weekly paper of Nov. 18th, l read an article
headed, Bully for Iowa--Iowa Cheese &C
tive in Chicago" Then follows an article
taken from the Chicago Post, giving an &C.
count and sale Of four tons of cheese made
by Asa G. Bowen, of Bowen's Prairie, Jones
county, Iowa, and the editor says I" SC far as
we can learn, it is the first instance of an
Iowa farmer attempting to produce an article
Of cheese in any considerable quantity that
would compete with the celebrated cheese
turned cut by the Herkimer county dairy
men,. n ~
write this article, Mr.. Editor, to inform
you, and the Chicago Post also, that another
effort to produce good cheese was made here
in Butler county last season, and that it was
quite successful. l have made cheese for
several years in Herkimer Co., N. Y, and
believing that this part of Iowa offered in.
ducements to the dairyman equal at least to
any other portion of our country was Undue.
ed to try my hand last season with 20 COWS.
The proof of my success, like Mr.. Bowen's
may be shown in the sale of the cheese.

factory, and established the fact in my own
mind at least that cheese of as good quality
can be made here in Iowa as in Herkimcr
county or elsewhere.
In fact, | can see no reason why Northern
Iowa may not become as celebrated for cheese
making as is old Herkimer, and if our farm
ers will enter into this now lucrative branch
Of farming, we may export much more large
ly than we now import this important article.
There is perhaps no branch Of farming
that now pays better, or that has paid as
well, taking the average Of prices for the last
thirty years. The price of cheese is not as
fluctuating as most articles are which the
farmer produces, and of consequence one
can engage in it with more assurance Of sue
cess than almost anything else. After read.
ing the article alluded to, thought l would
let you know that although Butler county
has made but a small beginning still she
does not appear to be very far behind her
sister Jones. ......
Respectfully yours, &c. ABBOTT.

EXTENSsSS OF TIME.

Congress has passed bill extending the
period Of cnlisting, and also the payment Of
the Government bounties, to the ist Of March.
Under this arrangement it is confidently ex-
pected that all the States will raise their res
pective quotas. Enlisting had but fairly
commenced in earnest in this State at the
time it was supposed the bountes would
cease, and draft be ordered to make up de-
fciencies. Now fresh impetus will be Civ
en- the work, and the different counties have
ample time to FIJI up their quotas. Black
Hawk county, which is some fifty short, can
easily make up her number previous to the
first of March.
Cedar Falls gazette. [volume] (Cedar Falls, Iowa) 1860-1895, 1864-01-15
IMPORTANT IF TRUE.

The Memphis correspondent Of the st.
Louis Republican, says that two important
propositions have recently been made by the
rebel authorities to the Federal Government
The first is as follows:
GA quartermaster of the Confederate army
at fernando, acting by authority of Rich
mond officials, has offered to sell to General
Grant or Hurlbut, all the cotton now remain
ing within certain district, yet outside the
Federal lines. This offer embraces To- 900
bales, and is all Confederate cotton aad green
backs will be taken for it.
Gen. Hurlbut is understood to favor the
purchase, and recommends that it be carried
into effect.
The SECOND proposition is this:
1t is stated that Kirby Smith recently sent
an authorized messenger to Washington to
propose to the Federal authorities to furnish
every requisite authority to get out all the
cotton in that portion Of Red River and Wash
ita districts, within rebel control, the money
for the same TO be paid to the class of officers
excepted from the amnesty offered by Presi
dent Lincoln, they to retire from the rebel
army and go to Mexico.
If this be the case it indicates that the
rebels contemplate the abandonment of all
the territory west of the Mississippi river
and the return Of The States thus located te
i the Union,

UNITED STATES SENATOR.

! During its present session the Iowa Lesis-
lature will be called upon to choose U. s.
Senator, 10 iii the vacancy caused by the cx.
piraton Of the term Of Mr.. GRIMES. Several
persons are spoken cfin connection with the
office, and aside from the present incumbent
those most prominently mentioned, are Gen.
| FITz HENRY WARREN, and Gov. KIsgwooD
With all due Difference to these distinguished
gentlemen, we think that it is the opinion Of
nine Nenths Of the loyal people Of this part
Of the State, that Senator GRIMES should be
reelected to the position he has so ably filled
with honor to himself, profit to his country,
and to the entire satisfaction Of his constitu-
ency. His influence is probably second to
that Of no other man in the Senate, and the
prominent and active part he takes on all
questions Of national interest and importance,
proves more than mere words can do, that
to talents Of high order, he brings the aid
of tircless energy and unceasing industry
To him mere than to any other man in the
Nation, We owe the present highly efficient
condition Of our navy. He it was that in
the face of difficulties and opposition that
would have crushed weaker man, was the
means Of setting sdoat our powerful Iron
clad fleets, which to-day are the Nations
pride, and which are none the less a monu-
ment 10 the wisdom and foresight Of Senator
GRIMES than to ERNlCsoN's genius. In view
Of the high position he maintains in Con-
gress and before the country: in view of his
ability and influence as statesman; his
keen foresight and wisdom as a legislator,
and his sterling, practical good sense as
business man, we should not fail to send
him back to the position, he SO worthily and
ably ellis. Laying his claim to the position
aside, it would be an act of injustice to the
country to deprive it Of his valuable services
in the present critical hour Of its existence.
We hope to hear Of bis re election by unan-
imouS vote
