Prometheus Tunnel and Drainage Com
pany, designed to drain all the leading
minss on the range of hills above Austin
and at Its termini penetrating the noun
tain at the depth of over 1000 feet. The
tunnel will be 10000 feet in length, and
from maps exhibited TO US, is not only q
necessity, but feasible enterprise. We
wish il success. Mr.. Smith also exhibited
a silver brick to US worth 1925, the pro-
duct of one hundred pounds of ore from
the Revenue mine, of which we have be-
fore made notice. Mr.. S. leaves for the

his mission will be successful in introduce

to adopt such measures Us in our iudg-
ment will most certainly tend to perpetu-
ate our glorious Union of States and with
the blessings Of free institutions and the
peace 80 happily restored, hereby adopt
the following platform Of principles, viz {:
|. We are in favor Of the Monroe
doctrine.
:. We sustain the Administration Of

the same By our next Legislature.
5. That iaasmuch as We do not suffi-
GENTLY know the sentiment of the people

this matter 10 the different county con-
ventions to take such action in the IN after
~ by them is deemed proper. aud to in
struct their Senators and Represe natives
accordingly.
g. We are in favor Of the brave SOL
ders and marines who have faithfully SER

for oil Offices Of profit, honor or trust,
either by appointment or otherwise where

Of envy and fanatcism, and will recoil
with crushing force on the heads of his
calumniators.
3. That We feel just pride in the pro-
gress OF our army and navy and especially
Of the soldiers of Iowa, who under Grant
and Sherman have made last and glo-
rious record Of their patient :endursnce
of suffering, their admirable disci pine,
and imdomitable valor.
9. That we hail with Joy the return of
these brave men from the battlefield, and
extend to to them our grateful thanks for
their services, and a hearty welcome to
their homes, and believe that it is the
duty, as it will be the pleasure, of their
fellow-citizens to see that due proper
ton Of the civil honors and offices of the
State shall be distributed among them,
and the fostering care Of the public ex-
tended to the widows and orphans of those
who died in the service Of their couutry.
10. That the assassination of President
Lincoln was an act Of unmitigated bar
bsrism, and one that should be held in
utter adherence by every good citizen.
