Philadelphia claims to be the largest
manufacturing city in the world except
London. In 1866, the factories produced
over two hundred millions of dollars worth
of staple goods.
The Muscatine Daily Courier, of tho
18th, speaking Of meteors, says:
This is the second time we have been
disappointed by the meteors, and in our
humble opinion the meteor business is q
humbug. A year ago we sat up all night
looking for the golden shower. 1t didn't
come. Night before-last we watched till
into the "wee sma' hours ayant the twal."
Dell the meteor did we or any other man
see! We don't believe in meteor rains.
We regard them as a sell, got up to keep
honest people out of bed. 1t will be g
good while before they get us up again.
We shall resolutely hug our pillow though
all the meteors in the universe be falling.
The only reliable fireworks are Roman
crackers, rockets and Chinese candles.
The others are played OUT Il"

A HANDSOME IMPRovEMENT.-Mr. Law
Ter, at the different sales by the govern
ment, of its property here, has purchased
large share of the valuable lots and i'm
provements thereon. He owns tract of
several acres extending from Main through
to Church street, and which comprises the
most beautiful building lots in the city,
overlooking the river, railroad, and the
city of McGregor. The whole of these
grounds have been inclosed in most sub
stantial manner, and many hundreds of
maple trees have been planted to orna-
ment them. Mr.. Lawler, at large ex-
pense, has reconstructed the dwelling ori-
ginally used as q Generals quarters, and
has made it one Of the handsomest, largest
and most convenient residences in the city;
to accomplish this, he has employed a
large number of workmen for the last three
months, and must have expended many
tiousanfs of dollars in addition to his
house he has just about completed a large
stone barn, and now contemplates other
Improvements, which will make his resi-
dence and grounds among the most attrac-
tive in our beautiful town. We are CAD
to see men Of the capital and character Of
Mr.. Lawler, building homes in which they
a.e willing to live until their time of exit
from these shores shall come.-Pairie ds

England's poor are crying for bread
They can find no work to do-no wages to
earn-and the consequence is that starva-

are getting common. Those at Exeter and

have broken out in other towns in Devon

Yes, this is lamentable truth, but Eng

her own chill lren, has hid time to pity
the "colard men" of America to excite
sectional hate to assist in the destruction
of this Union to start a war through her
