MOUND CITY.-Many of our citizens
are availing themselves Of the pleasure
OF daily excursions to this quiet aud
beautiful village, thirty miles removed
only from the heat and dust Of the city,
and that thirty miles itself a delightful
recreation % board the fleet and well
manned steamer Peosta. under command
of Capt. NJ. r. Cheek, always urbene and
attentive to the pleasure of those accom-
panying him. The Mound is growing up
with remarkable rapidity-everywhere
signs Of improvemeDt-cOmfoTtable resi-
dences and spacious business houses be-
ing erected. The beautiful groves sur
rounding it, afford delightful places
Of resort for pleasure parties, while
the well sodded turfs on the lakes
borders afford delightful spots for ang-
ling an amusement now being INDUCED
IN by many Of our citizens. To the
pleasure-seeking, and those wanting a
quiet hours dissolution from the hustle
and heat Of the city, we know of no
more inviting source than a trip to the
Mound on the PeOsta, under command
Of Capt. G.. An hours ride in the oity
and suburbs, while it costs those in
dulging several dollars outly, offers but a
poor chance OF getting clear of heat and
dust. while the outlay Of an excursion to
Mound, costs comparatively nothing,
and is a perfect and complete sbsoIution
rom the city's hustle and a~nnOyances.
