WIRrz TRlAL.-Our readers will be hap
py to learn that the trial Of Capt. Wirtx for
barbarities to Union prisoners at Anderson
vile Prison, has at last been concluded. The

Clark street Chicago, where orders Of every
description are filled, and in close proximity
is the manufacturing establishment, where
large number Of operatives are constantly
employed, turning out daily thousands Of
pieces. Our Iowa dealers will flnd II great
ly to thei advantage to give this house .
call when purchasing, ss this house can
offer every inducement found in the eastern
market. Their assortment Of oils, etc., is
equally extensive.
METROPOLITAN THEATRE SUDDEN CHANGE
| or BAsE.-The Stars, Miss Price and Mr..
Hanchett not being satisfied with the au-
diences they have played to, during their ex.
tremely short stay in Davenport, brought
their engagement to sudden close this
,norning-but Manager Wyatt is like Gen
eral Grant, hound to fight it out on this line
ifit takes al winter, and does not know
when he 10 defeated, 30 therefore he brings
up his excellent Star Company ~ . reserve
and We predict will turn::the fortunes Of the
day.
