PLESrY OF HELP.- There will be no more
complaint about scarcity Of help in the har
vest field right away, in this vicinity.
Hundreds Of laborers will return from the
army and take the field, hundre ds more are
coming in from the old country, and many
Of the rebel prisoners will stay here rather
than return to their de solated south. There
will be plenty of labor in the market this
year at greatly reduced prices.
PoPuLAR.-Every body is ordering 50 its Of
clothing from those elegant styles Of spring
cassimsres manufactured BY Shields in this
city. His new styles are really sple ndid,
and would do credit to the famous Eas tern
mills. = Call at Sam Perry's or at Robert

courage home industry and home ,nanufac c.
lures. DoE't fail to examine Shields late st
styles Of spring and summer cassimeres.
SET UP IN BUSINESS -A0AIN.-John Mitch
ell was sent to Fort Madison Penitentisry
six months ago, from this county, for steal
ins. He arrived here early this morning by
boat The first step taken towards enjoy
ing his freedom was to 60 into the first dog
gerry and get drunk. The next step was to
get into a fight with drayman,: Shom he
assaulted fierceiy with stones. The next
operation was his arrest and speedy return
to close quarters in Jail. John will return
to the State boarding house pretty soon if
he don't look sharp.
ARRIVAL OF "GaEY sRAaDs."--The 37th
Iowa Infantry, the Grey-beard Regiment,
arrived here this morning from Cincinnati
by special train. For several::months past
this regiment has been doing guard duty at
that place. 1t will be mustered out in .
day OF two, when they will return to their
respective homes and rest on their laurels.
The "Grey.beards have performed their
duty well-having filled places that more
young and vigorous troops would have been
detailed to fill.had there becA no such or
ganiaation.
our esteemed. fellow citizen, Robert Sickcls
is about to close up his affairs here, remove
to Chicago, anu open wholesale hardware
house in that city. His present partner, NJ.
Preston. thinks Of doing the same thing
One reason for this change is to secure =
more extensive field of op Grafton, another
is the concern does not longer wish to endure
the exhorbitant freight tariffs that is of the
Railroads connectin ing with this city, which
has the effect to S,efsat their wholesale oper
atoms. 1t is roatter Of regret that SO reli-
able concern is to wind up its operations
here, but such Is the case. Our city can i'll
afford to part with such an enterprising
house. They claim that they can be able to
supply their Wholesale customers in Iowa
from Chicago nearly as cheap as they can
supply them from this point, and largely in
crease their busiaess besides. We wish the
concern soccess wherever it may 20.
