4 And the people OF the South waved angry sgains,
l.. the people fthe North, and rose up IS one man
saying: -

Of the North but we Will separate and country
from them and their country, and run a machine by
ourselves;
g. Ana there will be none among the people of the
North who will prevent for they are Yankees and

g. And said to the OF the South you shall not 60

silver and copper disappeared from the face Of the land
S. Now when a certain named Salmon, OF the
tribe which dwst between the waters Of the Ohio and
Lake Erie, said 10 the wise who In council
together: Go to now, why should lack for money

lack not for money wherewith to purchase for
men, and hard.tack and pork to feed them.
10. So the went forth and commenced grinding

The Iowa Central Railroad.

II is q fixed fact, rs we obtain II from
u. :. Marshall Melendy and Others
who are posted, that the Iowa Central
Road, from Cedar Falls, Black Hawk
County, to the Missouri State line In
the southeastern part of Appanoose
County, will be built before the world
is much older. The contract for grad
ing between Cedar Falls and Toledo, 81
miles, has been let, and the road will
be ready for the ties by the lst of July,
1865. The road passes through Toledo,
Grinnell, Oskaloosa, Eddyvillc, Albion,
and near Centervillc, Appanoose Coun-
ty. The engineers viii meet those OF
the North-Missouri Road I'm few days,
and make arrangements for connec-
ton. af,E., q .#sss :. .,f....f ...-.s aaagfH...

are railroaded, leaving but 80 miles OF
road to construct, in order to form q
connection in Iowa with the trunk OF
the Central. .a ..., .... .
Thirty miles OF the So from the State
Line to Macon City are graded
From Cedar Falls to the Minnesota
State Line, the distance Is SO miles
fifteen miles of which--that Is, from
Cedar Falls to Wavcrly--are graded, -
From the Minnesota State Limo to St
Paul, n distance of 40 miles intcrvcGes
The whole distance from st. Paul to ST
Louis, by the route of the Central ant
its connections, is 6i7 miles. Tho roac

Valley Road, the NJ. Il M. R. X. al
Grinnell the North Western at Toledo
the Dubuque and Sioux. City ut Cedar
Falls, the McGregor Western, and two
or three railroads in Minnesota. This
tapping of the great lines will have q
tendency to develop the resources of tho
State in a remarkable degree
A great trunk railway leading through
the heart of three States, from ST, Pau
to st. Louis, will open up to interior
Iowa all the advantages OF the prairics
and the vast coal region Immediately
West of the Mississippi river.
From Cedar Falls to Missouri, the
road will pass through seven Counties

subscribed enough to grade and bridge

E. A Curious Case.

Our city readers will remember tho
case OF Bernard Daily, the insane man,
who used TO wander around cur street,.
az "ttempt was made to get him ad-
mttea INTO the Inn"na ASYLUM at
Jacksonville. but the building was full,
Hc was then by an order Of the Board
or supervisors, we believe, taken to tho
county poor house. Being man Of
great muscular power, he gave the par
ties who made the arrest u good deai OF
trouble, but was finally secured. Some
weeks ago his mother went out to see
him. She says she found him cor fined
In a pen or open yard, In company with
two other insane persons, exposed with
out shelter, to the sun. Daily request
cd to be allowed to go home and when
she started to leave him, became uncon-
trolnble, and climbing the high wall
ran towards town. Several persons
connected with the poor house started
after him, but failing to catch him on
foot, took n horse. Mrs. Daily came
into town and heard nothing of him
until the next day. The doctor called
and told her that her son was suffering
ell Tint he had been pursued and hit on
the head with u club, knocked down
and taken back to the poor house. Mrs.
Daily went after him and brought him
home. The blow which he received
| threatened to be serious for time, but
| finally the wound healed. The strang-
est point Of the whole affair Is that it
promises TO restore him to his senses.
/ He has come home and works all day
at his trade, ,slioemaking, whistles and
sings, and is improving rapidly. Strong
hopes are entertained of his complcte
restoration. A parallel case to that Ia
that Of one William, Moss, a year or no
ago, who was rendered insane by an
attack Of typhoid fever, md while be-
ing taken home, fell from a bridge and
striking his head was restored to his
senses Instantly. A lick on the head
will knock most people scnsciess, We
have heard OF breaking folks head to
let the light In; this comps the nearest
to 1t of anything in our experience.
