The PeGks.--Oyerman's Hall was fill
ed to a perfect Jam last Saturday even
ing to hear the well-known Peak Fam
lily. The entertainment, however, was
not as good as the one given at their last
visit. Their programme is old and
worn out, and people are getting tired
of hearing the same thing over and
over. 1t was naturally expected on this
recent occasion to hear something new,
and, failing in this, a great many We're
naturally disappointed. The Peaks
should understand that even their good
reputation and the easy gullibility of
the people will not answer altogether.

Zo,c0 Central RdiLodd.-It seems be-
yond question now that Cedar Falls will
have in short time additional railroad
facilities. Mr.. Melendy, Director in
the Iowa Central Company and a Dele
gate to the recent meeting at st. Louis,
has returned, and feelsvery much pleas
ed with the prospect. We have not
space this week to dilate on the impor-
lance of the project now before this peo-
pie, but must content ourself with
merely referring to the report of the st.
Louis meeting which appears on sec
end page. We shall endeavor to keep
our readers fully posted in regard to this
enterprise, which new looks so encour-
agingly. We trust our people may take
hold of the work before them with en-
srgy, and knowing no such word as
fail. A meeting was held at Council
Hall yesterday afternoon, but we are
unable to give report this week. The
meeting appointed committees, &C., and
took such vigorous steps as plainly in
dictate the determination of our people.
Hurrah for the Southern railroad-the
Iowa Central! 1t IS the road which il
going to make US, and which we are 20

Efforts Being Made 10 Have MOsby
Arrcsted--'rhe Veteran Reserves
20 be Mustered Out-Death Sem
+. temce S3vssrpended. W taJ u As

| New YORK, Oct. A.-The Herald's special
says: Since the execution Of Champ Fer
guson at Nashville, certain parties here who
are familiar with Col. Mosby's war history
are interesting themselves with a view to
bringing the latter to what they cab JUS
tice. They allege that Mosby, although
rose-colored,. gentlemanly sort Of villain,
was guilty OF guerrilla atrocities which
would have, made Champ Ferguson blush.
They claim they have the names of ex-
rebel officers lamong the list'of witnesses
wherewith to prove inhuman crimes upon
the Virginia partisan.
In consequence, perhaps, of the raising
of money and other organized efforts to
prevent the mastering out OF the Veteran
Reserve Corps by the next Congress, it is
said the authorities have fully decided to
disposeo of the corps before that body meets.
General Fry and other friehds OF the corps
seem to,bave soverreachedi themselves sand
to have precipitated, by their own conduct,
the very action they desired to prevent.
MIR. Stanton's answer to recent applica-
tiOn for commission in that corps was,
that before a commissions could be- made
out and forwarded to the applicant the
corps would cease to exist. Gen. Grant is
also understood to.favor the muster out of
all troops excepting the regular army. Il If
this should prove inadequate to the eXigen-
cies of the future, Congress can increase it
from time, to time. AcOntrolling reason of
the Secretary OF War and Gen. Grant is,
probably, that the privates of the Veteran
Reserve Corps universally desire to be
mustered out, and theofficers as unanimous
ly oppose it. AS the latter's disinterested-
ness is not above suspicion, their recon-
mendations have less weight. " l.. II
The death sentence of the Indian Chiefs
Medicine and Little Six, implicated in the
Minnesota massacres of three years ago,
has been suspended byJthe President in
Difference to the remonstrance of Bishop
Grace, of that State, to the execution of the
sentence. The original records and testi-
mony taken in the premises are therefore
referred to the Commissioner of Indian AZ
fairs for further substantiation Of the guilt
of the Chiefs. 1fi1 NS Ai o"N' y -

On TWINS s.AFayseshus A., Of the Buf-
tdlo Connercidl, has been to see the Siamese
Twins, who are spliced together, and dwrites
about them as follows: ,,, ,.,mr, ~ N, %
Eng's base of operations Is on the right,
while Chang's is on the left. Eng isslightly
taller than Chang, though there is nothing
in his conversation or demeanOr from which
1t could beinferred that he "feels above" the
brother to whom he Is so firmly attached.
Changis fifty-four years old; we did not
inquire the age Of Eng.
In, contemplating these singular beings,
many curious reflections arise in ones
mind. We endeavor to imagine how It
would be In case Eng should get mad at
Chang, and challenge him to mortal COM
bat at ten PAGES. OF course Chang couldn't
''see Ii" or accept the terms; and then his
character for pluck might be called into
question. Suppose Eng should slam" some-
body, and be convicted of assault and bat
terry, and sentenced to a term of imprison-
ment; they couldn't be separated very con-
veniently, land the justice would commit
Chang, when Eng alone was guilty of the
Offense. In case the wives of the two should
90 out visiting, and leave their husbands to
''tend"'the babies, and one baby should fall
In the fire, and the other into the cistern.
OF course Chang would wish to rescue his
offspring first, while Eng would insist that
his was entitled to prior Onsideration-and
there would be row. If Eng, in a fit of
carelessness, should insist upon eating some-
thing that disagreed with Chang of course
Chang would have sufficient grounds for q
disagreement with Eng, and then there
would be trouble again. 90 - 40 '-

New YORK, Oct. A.-The Times WASH
ington special says: The murder of Harriet
Wells, by her paramour, Levi i. Farwell,
which occurred yesterday morning on 1917
street, proves to have been more diaboli-
cal deed than was at first supposed. The
evidence before the coroner's jury to-day
shows thatther murderer deliberately adj
ministered chloroform to his victim While
she was asleep, then strangled her to death,
threw, her, body into a closet, robbed her
Of her watch and jewelry, and then fed.
He has not yet been arrested. The anima-
ting purpose of the murderer Is said to have
been the refusal of the woman to marry
him. he having sworn that II he did not
marry her no one else should. Although
keeping house of prostitution here, the
deceased, is said to have been respectfully
connected and has q son at'lschool at New
Brunswick, N. j, for which place she in

years OF age, and came TO this city with
