Thar FinIxo.-The city WAS aroused this
morning before daylight BY several loud re.
ports Of cannon, but whence the sound came
none were able to state. We have been ask.
ed hundred times--more or less-what
that firing was about, but notwithstanding
dilligent investigation we are unable to ob-
tain any satisfaction relative thereto.

Bank has received its notes Of issue from the
authorities ct Washington. and il now prs
pared to issue the same a. the officers Of

their defeat to Hon. Hiram Price, Of this
city, who Was appointed to report upon the
question Of the necessity Of second Ma
tional Bank in Muscatine.
