PRAIRIE DU CHEN CoLLEGE.-A meeting of
the citizens Of P.airio dn Chien was held at
the School House in upper town an the 9th in
slant, Tor the purpose OF taking steps to incOr-
porate and endow a college at this place. A
charter for that purpose was adopted. with the
following persons rs trustees: II. l.. Dousman,
Rev Alfred Bronson, Gen John LAWYER &c. Nj.
Seely, Thomas l.. Brewer, Horace Beach,
VIM. butcher, Otto Georgii, Edward Pelton,
P. |. Adams, Darius Mason, Charles Robbie,
N. A. Wright and o. Jackson. We have a
beilding already erected, OF sufficient dimen.
sions, and as well adapted to that purpose as
any in the state.
A College ut Prairie du Chen must prove
success. The interest the people feel and
manifest, and the accessibility, beauty OF seen
cry and healthfulness, are not surpassed in the
west. The people in the western portion OF
the state have for long time been anxious for
| the location Of such an institution at Prairie
du Chen. We can already boast Of better
school houses and more Of them, OF better
schools and better school systems than any
other town in the state, Of the same number Ot
inhabitants. We have four church buildings,
which are well attended, and fiourishing lit
erary association, which furnishes US with a
good moral atmosphere, OF which we have rea
son to feel proud, and in the endowment Of
our College the usual educational interest is
manifest in all classes. And with the assuran
ces we have abroad from gentlemen who are
aware Of the interests Of education, we
cannot fail in the noble enterprise .-Courier.

Courtesy.
The following is one among number Of
good resolutions adopted by the late Editorial
Convention. A strict adherence to it will be
our constant aim, and we believe, if our edito
rial brethren were guided by It the character
Of the Press would rise to higher standard,
and its influence for good be tar greater than
it is: s.a
Reso,ceJ, That We hereby declare it to be
our purpose to observe, in all our publications,
the courtesies belonging to gentlemen, and we
hereby recommend the adoption Of the rule to
| strike from our list Of exchanges every jour.
nal whose editor descends to personalities and
indecent expressions in his discussions with his
contemporaries.
We clip the above from the Clayton Co.
Journal IT'S needless to say that we do not
bet much on Editorial Convention rules, reso.
lutions and regulations. No body of men can
| fix our prices or manage our affairs. As an
excuse for pleasant social gathering, the Ed.
itorial Conventions are bully; but for practical
business purposes they are about as useful as
| the tail of Tam O'Shanter's mare, which was
so short the witches could not get hold Of it..
Years ago We (by request) wrote an edito.
rial address for the Iowa yuilldrivcrs, and in
it We embodied the resolution above as the
only preventive Of slang. But Of what use is
it? The very men who voted for the re.olu-
ton will be in the field in ono month denounc.
ing each other as villains, and Exchanging
with the utmost cordially. II the resolution
were lived up to, great good would be effected;
at present the good is merely affected.

License.
We clip the following letter from report
OF the proceedings Of the Iowa Legislature -
In the Massachusetts courts it is decided lately
that the permit, or license Of the u S. Collec
tor to deal in liquors, is bar to state interior.
ence. We do not dec de law questions, but to
a man up tree it looks very much like sill.
ing permits to sell "rd co,, es.;~e -r~~-, i.,,.
a set OF State officers are fning Iowa citizens
for complying with the laws Of the United
States! Where is the little joker in this in.
stance7 Undcr the States Rights thmblc, or
does the Federal power cover III aa
bill for an act authorising cities to regu.
late the traffic in malt and spiri.uous liquors,
and for other purposes; the question being on
adopting the report Of the committee. that the
bill be Indefinitely postponed. Senator War
rem thought we should have the privilege of
regulating our own domestic traffic in our own
way. subject only to The laws OF the state reg
uating such traffic; but he was willing the
senate should vote on the postponement Of the
bill now as we'll as hereafter.
Senator Paulk was in favor Of the bill, and
could vote for bill that will be more s.rin.
gent in the sale Of any spri'uous Or malt Ii
quors. He would vote Tor a bill that would
make the law more stringent than it is But
the law we now have is one that cannot be en-
forced to such an extent that it will put def
mite stop to all sale of spirituous liquors lie
should vote for the bill.
Senator Richards was in favor Of as st,in.
gent license law as could DO adopted; one
that would command respect more than the
one we now have. Such law as the present
Goes not command the respect that it should.
He could not vote to postpone the bill. Ifit
was not stringent enough, amend it, but do
not 20 tpone it. 1t was more stringent than
the law VIC now have. He could support the
bill.
Senator Parvin said that it was not the NOR.
al men who were asking for the license law; it
was the immoral men-the liquor dealers, tie
drinking communicated those men who
would use it for political purposes, who are
| now asking for the license law. He would
not vote for such bill.
Senator CroCkllam made q lengthy speech
against the bill, in VIII ch he said that he was
in favor Of law that will abolish all liquor
| shops, and all liquor dealing from the state en-.
t'rely. He would vote against any bill that
would license any one in dealing in spirituous
liquors or selling them in any manner.
Senator Warren Inoved to amend by filling
the blank in the bill by inserting 5000. SO
amended.
On the question Of the indefinite postpone.
mens Of the bill, the vote stood-aycs So,

OK the 18th inst. rutiian attempted to
violate the person of young lady, the
daughter of a respectable citizen, living
near Olio, in Macon county, Mo-, while she
was on her way to writing school. She
successfully resisted his attempts, but was
severely wounded on the head and nearly
choked to death. The citizens pursued and
arrested him near kirksyille, in Audrain
county, and brought him back, when he
was recognized and confessed his guilt
Thursday, the 22d, was set for an examin-
alton of his case, but on that morning his
dead body was found hanging on tree
near Olio. He gave his name as John
Ewbanks, said his mother lived in Iowa,
that he had served in the federal army, but
had been sent to the penitentiary for some
offence, and had just been released, and
was on his way home.

TIE DEvlL.--The following extract from
an affidavit said to be sworn to in Mt. Ster.
ling. KY, by seven respectable persons,
gives description Of the apparation:
standing to the right Of the upper cab
in NEGRO cabin) near the fence that separ-
ates the negroes garden from the house
yard. was creature Of gigantic stature
and the most horrible appearance. 1t was
nearly as high as the comb of the cabin,
had mons.rous head, not dissimilar in
shape to that OF an ape; two short, very
white horns appeared above each eve; its
arms were long, covered with shaggy hair
of an ashen hue, and terminated with huge
paws, not unlike those of cat and armed
with long hooked claws; its breast was as
broad as that of large sized OK; its legs
resembled the front la of horse, only
the hoofs were cloyen; it had a long tail,
