The Celebration at rWaterloo.--We are
informed that the people of Waterloo
were about as drunk with joy last Mon
day as were the people of Cedar Falls.
They had it reported that JEFF: Davis
was captured as well as Lee, and this
added to the enthusiasm. Agentleman
informs u. that he was walking along
the street when an old Deacon came
dancing down from the opposite direc-
ton. Our friend was grabbed by the
shoulders, and inquired of |" Do you ev-
er dance ?n and commanded "If you
do, dance now" and round and round
he went in a lively Jig in the hands of
the enthusiastic Deacon. This is only
an illustration of the universal joy--a
joy which knew no expression. Flags
were freely displayed, a good deal of
powder was burned, an immense amount
OF cheering was done, and d decidedly
creditable celebration was had. We are
not in possession of the necessary in
formation for detailed account. fr.

Timers Spring Bed Bottonas.-After
a thorough trial of this improved bed
bottom we can heartily endorse it as an
article worthy Of being in every mans
house. They are not cxcelled in case
and durability by any in use, and are
far superior to anything of the kind Of,
fered for the same money. They COM
bine the two essential qualifications,
perfection and cheaphess. The Messrs.
Circuit are agents for this section of the
State, and those purchasing have the
privilege of trying the springs, and if
not satisfied with the way they operate,
can return them, and have their money
refunded. See advertisement, and call

manufactured recently are far superior

The Army Of the Edgle.--Next week
we shall publish a long article about
this army, and the inducements to join
it; in the mcantime we hope the boys
and girls viii prosecute the recruiting
business with energy. Mr.. Sewell, of
Chicago, by whose fundamentally this
army is being organized, assures us by
letter that the enterprise is meeting
with flattering success, and will result
in a large revenue to the Sanitary Fair,
which commences on the 30th of May.
His receipts are averaging from $500 to
$500 per day, and more than three
fourths of all received will be net profit
to the Fair.

For the Cedar Falls Gazette. ~ a
Editor Gazettc.:-From my residence,
which is in the outskirts of the city, l
have lately seen numerous men aud
boys with guns apparently in the pur-
suit OF game, and 1 wish, through the
medium of your paper, to call the atten-
ton Of those persons to the fact that
killing of game Of all kinds, except wa
ter-fowl, il at this season unlawful, lit
is also cruel and inhuman. The game
is without value for the table, being
poor, innutritioas and, in the case Of
patridges or, pheasants at least, often
poisonous. The true sportsmen of this
vicinity do not look upon hunting at
this season, with the exception of the
pursuit of ducks and geese, with favor,
and they are determined to prosecute
any individual who is found with dead
quail, partridge or prairie chicken in his
possession.
/ One word farther. / have also seen
boys shooting meadow larks, robins and
birds of that kind, which is not only an
act of wanton cruelty, but which also is
positively injurious to the community
These small birds are the fcathered po-
lice who keep down and exterminate
the insects so injurious to agriculture
A single pair Of robins doinestitated in
a garden will each day destroy hum
dred cut-worms, and other insects inju-
rious to vegetation. hope, Mr.. Editor,
that this humble appeal for the birds
will be heard, and that We shall see no
more hunting except for legitimate
game. ~ &z2 q ~ Nc.

Friday last at the large hall, was sue
cess in all things. The tables, consist
ing of two extending lengthwise down
the hall and one across the lower end,
were bountifully supplied with the del
icacies as well as the substantials of life.
Turalics, chickens, beef, pork and beans,
corn-dodgers, elegant cakes, &c., &C.,
were there in great profusion. At about
five O'Clock the company were sum
moned to the tables by President
d. G. Cverman, who, in the absence of
the President, presided. The Divine
blessing was invoked by Rev. Mr.. Eb-
erhart, after which the Pioneers and
their families and guests partook of tho
provision provided. There being near
| ly or quite two hundred persons pres
ent all We're not able to sit at the first
table, and the tables were again set and
again the seats were filled. The hours
were passed in sociable chat, old time
acquaintance were renewed, and the
events of the early settlement of the
County recalled. After the adoption
of q constitution and the transaction of
some business, the people adjourned to
meet again in the evening, when such
as desired to do SO joined in the merry
dance, and continued to enjoy them
selves until the small hours OF the
morning. TO the ladies who took the
matter in hand at the last moment is
due the credit of the affair.". Long may
they live, and may every reunion of the
Pioneers be as successful as the first.
