TnAf's TINE Polxr.-Gov. Stones Procla-
nation may have : controlling influence
upos some minds, but the fact 10 just here,
the people have set their faces against high
prices and poor clothing, consequently they
continue the draft upon Sam Perry for his
reliable E and elegant suits iof clotes which

Coop TnP.-One Of Kuhnen 4 Co.'S
travelling agents recently returned from q
four weeks trip, and in that time took or
ders for Tobacco and Cigars to the amount
Of nearly Ave thousand dollars. This enter
prising firm is supplying the trade oil
through Iowa-away out into Nebraska,
Kansas, As also largely in Illinois and Wis

time.
BuRxs FrsrIvAL-We understand that
the Burns Festival 1t Lahrman's Hall was
largely attended last evening, there being
there being about twice as many present as
had been calculated upon. One result Of this
Vas scarcity Of Commissary stores before
the cravings Of nature had been fully sup
Piled. This WAS no fault Of Mr.. Lahrman.
We have no time to make anything more
than " note Of tho Festival to-day, being
ever. crowded with other matters.
SPEck or WAR.-Overhearin . returned
soldier named Garland talking about going
over to Rock Island to enlist, last evening,
Gen. Baker informed him that an attempt TO
do that would subject him to arrest. TAX
ing it As IN afFront, Garland let fly his right
mauler which the Gen. stopped with his
left shoulder and in less time than could be
named in print, the offending party was
sprawling on the sidewalk. The engage
ment was short but disastrous to the assault
ing party.
CAPITAL IDsA.-The necessities Of the
case have compelled Gen. Baker to create .
new department in his Office in which ex-
elusive attention will b paid tolquestions Of
furloughs, descriptive rolls and discharges,
relating Immediately to paroled and ex-
changed prisoners, transfers Of sick and
wounded soldiers Of Iowa to Hospitals in
this State. To the management Of this very
necessary and higely important position,
Gen. Baker has appointed E. E. Bassett,
Esq, gentleman well vsrssd in these #.
fairs. The appointment is judicious one.
and the object sought to be attained most
humane and commsndahls.
