friends assembled at the depot to greet
him, who were-nuch panied on learning,
on his arrival, that he was quite i'll, and
unable to move about without assistance.
He was taken to the bouse Of his brother,
Alfred Sanders, Esq, at East Davenport,
where, with good treatment, the comforts

and be enabled to circulate once more

Several of the Dewitt saloon keepers
have been indted for violation Of the
Prohibitory Liquor Law. The Observer
sustained the action Of the Temperance
men in prosecuting and the Grand Jury
in indicting the guilty parties; whereto
the dealer got warthy and sworo ven
geancc on the editor, who thus gives the
whiskey gentlemen "little of his mind"
in return:

There is no newly proposed road to this
city that promises to do as much for US
as the Upton Railroad, in connection
with the Clinton & Nebraska, and the
Dubuque 4 Southwestern roads. All
the produce to be shipped south from
the Cedar valley, as well as a number of
the best grain raising counties west of
Cedar Rapids, would find this their near

in that event would give US good OPP
portunity for wholesale business. A
gentleman from Marshal county remark
