BRIDGES AT WATERLoo.-We learn
from the Courier that work On the
bridge is making satisfactory progress
aud that travel will be resumed this
week.
We deem the above announcement
necessary before informing our readers
that the citizens of that place are strong
ly urging the Importance of building
another bridge across the river aS that
point. 1t may be that the business in
terests of that place demand another
bridge, and il SO we presume all the
people of the county outside of Water
loo are willing that the citizens there
shall build as many bridges as they
choose to. But when it comes to any
more appropriations from the County,
quite number would doubtless "beg
leave to object" The question has
been very appropriately asked by the
tax payers of the County whether the
temporary crossing spanning the river
at that place now is to be saddled on to
the County. Would it not be well to
settle that question first. A call on the
County for more bridge appropriations
would come with rather poor grace just
now. Weagree with the Courier "that
whatever is done should be done with
out delay" for their present shell will
not stand longer than the June rise, it
is thought, and new bridge will then
be needed,

THE EAST WATERLOO LAND TITLE.
Our neighbors of the Courier have
been considerably exercised over an ar
ticle published by us few weeks since
regarding the title to the so acre tract
i'm East Waterloo. In their comments
on said article we must give them the
credit of confirming what we then
gave as the actual facts in the case, but
as to our intentions, whether 1t was ig-
norance or a willful misinterpretation
of the article, we are unable to deter
mine. We think second reading will
convince them that we merely gave
the facts as they were, leaving future
developments to determine the result.
1t appears from the affidavit of Mr..
Carr, recently procured by Messrs.
Bots & Allen, that the deed was OBJ
tanned from Isaac Carr through false
representations of Mr.. Gray, which
places the latter i'm rather an unpleas-
ant position and virtually throws Mr..
Gray entirely of the track. The ques-
ton of title is to be settled at the next
term of court and will doubtless be sat
isfactory to the citizens of East Water
loo, and on the other hand quite dam
aging to Mr.. Gray. We are pleased to
note the fact that the question is to be
finally settled without material detri-
ment to the business interests of the
town, but we hope this articlewill not be
construed rs intending to correct "the
injury done Waterloo. by what we said
a few weeks ago., as the Courier is
pleased to style It,. We hold il to be
the, province of newspaper to give
the latest news, and not wait until the
subject ceases to be Of interest before
saying anything about it. If our
neighbors of the Courier prefer to come
in on the second heat" we have no
objections. ,a.s e. g.
We have,neither time, inclination or
space in our columns to quarrel with
our neighbors as 20 whether Waterloo
is destined to be more prosperous than
Cedar Falls, certain it is we have no
reason SO far, to feel any concern on
that point. Both places, we are pleased
to. inform our readers, are growing
quite rapidly, and are destined to be
large and important cities as our State
continues so rapidly to develop.

COMMENCING on Tuesday evening and
ending yesterday evening. A large
number Of delegates were present from

der of the evening was occupied i'm a
free and animated discussion of the

ance in the Sabbath Schools. A

marching through the principal streets,
repaired to the church where an hour
and It half was spent in impromptu

ORPHANS HoME.--The almost daily
increase in numbers at this institution
and the numerous applications for adj
mission daily received, has rendered it
necessary on the part of those intrust-
ed with the general supervision to look
about them for more room. A farm of
forty acres has been purchased just out
side the city limits and they are only
waiting the necessary funds to erect a
large and commodious Home. Eight
orphan children were received into the
Home" last Monday, a week, and
numerous applications have been re-
ceired for admission the past week.
The building now occupied is full and
if more are received an addition will
have to be built. Besides the allowance
made by the Legislature Is one hun
dred dollars per year for each child.
This must cover the expenses of cloth
ing. subsistence, education and all con-
tingent expenses, and in consequence
of the extraordinary cost of living, is
found inadequate to- supply the de-
mands, and calls for contributions are
found necessary to be made upon the
people to supply the deficiency.
Miss Sweet has been travelling for
some time, and is now absent, repre-
senting this branch of the Orphans
Home. Weare pleased to notice among
exchanges that she is succeeding well
in her noble work. Ia Clinton she re-
ceived upwards of two hundred dollars,
q generous gift from generous people,
and i'm behalf of those who will receive
the benefit of these charities we thank
them for all such benevolent contribu-
tions. Miss Sweet Is an orphan, hay
ing lost father and two brothers i'm the
late war; her little brother and sister
are now at the Home. She Is fully
authorized to act in the work in which
she is now engaged and all contribu-
tions intrusted to her will be properly
accounted for. The Home" is now in
a prosperous condHion-the occupants
now numbering over three hundred,
are healthy and the educational wants
of the children are being well cared for.

There will be the usual religious

morrow.
A correspondent of the Christian
AdUocate, writing from Indianapolis,

7 Rawlins, of this city. 1t was dying

Rev. R. G. Webb, of Des Moines,
Iowa, says the Methodists of that
State exceed, by 5000, the aggregate

phia.
