Merrill and Grinnell.

The republicans of Iowa have nominal
ed Col. Merrill, of McGregor, as candidate
for governor. The contest for some time
has been narrowed down to Merrill and
Grinnell. That the latter failed to get the
nomination is mainly owing to the fact
that Rousseau did not strike hard enough.
Had he broken Grinnelrs head SO that the
latter could have gone to Europe and left
a "vacant chair someXhesavh -peyond
! haaauuur. But Rousseau, unfortunately
for Grinnells advancement, used only 4
light rattan, which broke early in the con-
flict. Had he taken club, all would have
resulted differently. Grinnell carried home
the broken pieces of the little rattan, and
exhibited them to the Hawkeyes but
among those sturdy individuals, the exhi.
bition excited only contempt. Had the
pieces been those of bludgeon, or even of
respectable walking stick, the Iowans
would have regarded the thing in differ
emit light. They went through the late
war and gave and received good substan-
tial blows hence they failed to appreciate
sore head and the delicate fragment of o
small rattan.
Merrill did not come before the conven-
ton with a sore head gotten for being
blackgnard in times of peace. He proba-
bly, showed the wound which he got some
where back of Vicksburg when leading
the 2lst Iowa in charge against the reb-
els. lie had the advantage over Grinnell
in the matter of wounds his wound was
somewhere in front, while those of Grin
nell, when all exhibited, necessitated some
unseemly exposures. And besides the adj
vantage of wounds, he had another one
when Grinnell brought forward the rem
nants of the little rattan and put them in
one scale, Merrill probably outweighed
them by dropping his sword in the other.
1t is therefore very easy to see why Grin
nell was obliged to button up his uu1nen-
tionables, pack up his little fragments of
cane, and walk off without the nomina-
ton. Fanatical as is radicalism in Iowa,
it seems to still possess sense enough to
choose between the merits of sword and
Ia pocket handkerchief partly filled with
rattan splinters and likewise between the
honor Of wound inflicted by rebel bull
let in front, and one inflicted by the toe of
"a boot upon the opposite portion of the
person.
Colonel Merrill is good man. He went
to the war rather late and came out early
but we suppose business will account for
the former and wounds for the latter. He
is New Highlander; is full of radicalism, |
and is q square exponent of the whole !
radical policy. He is an honorable bust
ness man, was good soldier, is good
citizen, and will be hard man to beat.
specially if, as is expected, General Jack
ION shall be nominated against him by the
democracy Chicago Times.

WEArHER, &c.-Somewhat damp rains
occur almost every day. Crops grow well,

Weather Predictions for July.
The month opens with generally fine
summer weather, and at times very hot
which prevails some days. The mir is again
extremely hot towards the middle of the
month. Severe thunder storms the last
week, followed by hot and dry weather
close on to the end of the month.
Rain or high winds near the 9th, 10th,
oath and 9th, with heavy thunder the two
aforementioned periods in divers places,
and perhaps local hail.
