W The winter term Of the Lime
Springs Academy will comm cnce on
the 9th of December and continue
sixteen weeks. This institution is
under the direction Of Rev. Adam
Craig, and is already in the frc mt
rank among the educational institu-
tion of north Iowa Board and tu-
itiou can be obtained upon as ia
vorable terms as at any institution
in the State. Fletcher
Of Missouri has al apt turn Of mind
readily adapting himself to the du-
ties and exigencies of Radicalism.
In August a public meeting was
held at Lone Jack, one of the bat
tie fields Of the recent conflict, to
raise funds to build a soldiers monu-
mcnt, to the federal dead there bur-
led. The Governor in the intensity
ofhis pure "loilty'' warned those
sympathising with the .'lost cause"
to keep their mouths closed. The
people came promptly forward to aid
the work, responding to his urgent
appeal by tho payment of over 5000
to aid in the work. The Governor
true to his natural instincts and un-
mindful Of the objects Of the dona-
nation, departed without taking any
steps to secure the monument or the
ground where the dead repose, as
well as forgetting to leave the 5000.
Ten years ago to day (Friday)
we (thc Scnior) landed in New Or
cgon coming in on runners, the
slcighing being first rate, and the
weather the coolest of the entire
winter. Now the weather is mild
and pleasant. The Finkle & Ly-
on Sewing Machine manufactured a t
5S7 Broadway N. Y. really ranks
among the very best now, or ever in
use. For these really superior ma
'chincs application should be made
TO Misses Cole, Scheibc and An
'dcrs at Lime Springs who are the
gents.-Joseph Starkey an old
time resident Of this county now
of Union Ridge Iowa, looked in up
on US this week, also David Brock
another of the "first settlers" now
Of Chapel Hill, Mo. looked in upon
u.s. The old settlers arc ever well
come in this sanctum. The Su-
premc Court has decided that the
hanging of Mrs. Suratt was without
warrant oflaw or authority of the
Constitution. Let Congress i'm
peach johnson for permitting so in
famous deed to be done, instead
Of for resisting its encroachments
upon law and right. The people
will punish that body for its cri mes,
then why may it not by way of retalis-
stion punish johnson who was an &C /.
'cessory before the murder. "a.
