cheaper than at Frans Meyers. Next door

PAYING OvF.-The Twenty .iirst was paid
If yesterday at Clinton, - We learn from
persons from that locality. The Tw-ntieth
Vas being paid last night, and may he ex
pected tonight Of tomorrow, at this
place.
MISS HARals.-We learn that Miss Mary
Harris, who shot her lover Burroughs, and
who was lately tried for that crime, will
shortly leave Washington City for Burling
Ion, in this State, where her parents n3w re-
side.
LOOK Our.-Some villain or villains have
been busily engaged in altering the Five
Dollar notes Of the Iowa City National
Bank into Fifties. Great complaints are
-aised in relation to these counterfeits, "a.
2ecially in the city Of Philadelphia, Pa.
G. T. WEBB.-The we'll assorted stock Of
glassware, queensware, mirrors. silverware,
.tc., Of G. 7. Webb, in lie Claire Row, still
claims and obtains the attention of the ladies.
No where can be seen more elegant services
disposed Of At more reasc nable rates. The
stock is not permitted to decimate, either,
and you will never fail to zee some novelty
At each visit. Give him call.
PRoxorsD. learn from the Washing
ton Chronicle, that our friend Charles w
Asmussen. has been promoted to Colonel Of
Volunteers, by brevet, "for gallant and mer-
itorious conduct during the campaign in
Georgia and the Carolinas." Good for
Charley. He is an energetic boy, and We
are glad to see him prospecting in the way of
promotion. He is on Col Bakers staff, CON-
mandant at Washington City, and who by
the way. has been promoted TO Brigadier
General.
A SmAxE.-The tardine IS which the gov
ernment officials at this place exhibit in re-
lation to the paying OF Of troops, deserves
the heartiest condemnation. A soldier
doesn't get the most princely income in the
world. and to be supporting family at
home, and remaining here 1t cost Of from
two to four dollars day. in order to con-
tribute to the ease Of somebody else, isn't
the most economical plan to be lit upon
To be sure there are rations furnished them
at camp, but no man wishes to live on coarse
government rations while he has cent in
his pocket to get anything better. We
don't know where the blame rests, but We
think the matter should be examined into
by those controlling such business. and the
evil complained Of, remedied IS soon ~ pos.
sible.

the purpose ofhunting. Aftes senturing

tacked by the savages and massacred.
We also learn that letter has been re
ceived in this city from Samuel Dwire, o
the Sixth Cavalry, At Fort Randall, wliel
contains about the same facts q the above
Major Galligan does not endorse the stor,

to disbeiieve it, but simply tells it - h,
