Iowa as seen by "a Yam
lxee

Mr.. Bromley, editor of the Hart
ford, CT, Post, came to Iowa to see
the eclipse, and he saw some things
beside, as witness thefollowing to his
paper: "After leaving Davenport on
the west side of the Mississippi, we
struck straight ont into and across
The State of Iowa. I had no concep-
ton of the boundlessness of these
prairies, and the wonderful produce
tive capacity of this State until I
looked out from the car window up
OH miles and miles, on either side of
us, of cut and stacked grain and wav-
ing corn. The wheat has been for
the most part cut, and the brown
fields are covered far as the eye can
reach with the standing shocks watt
ing to be threshed. Great fields of
waving corn, wonderful in extent to
my unaccustomed eyes, relieve the
monotony and lend variety to the
landscape, with an occasional patch
of buckwheat or a few acres Of pota-
toes sprinkled along Mt Intervals
Rolling prairies of the most graceful
outlines, seem rising into perfectly
rounded mounds, and now flowing
away in gentle undulations, or
spreading out into broad intervals,
meet the eye on all sides, billowy
sea of grace and beauty, without mo-
ton, but full of life and life.giving
things. / do not wonder that the
Iowa people are proud of their State.
1t is perfect wonder of fertility and
beautG.
Cedar Falls gazette. [volume] (Cedar Falls, Iowa) 1860-1895, 1869-09-10

The following from an Easternex-
change we publish for the benefit of
our Democratic readers:
During the eclipse at Council
Bluffs, where it was almost total, d
County Democratic Nominating
Convention was in session. When
surrounding objects commenced to
darken, not little disgust and anxi-
ETY. was manifested at the unexpect-
ed and unpleasant intuition, and an
ardent "wheel horse" of the Iowa
Democracy offered resolution
denoucing it as clearly unconstitu-
tional, and an unwarranted outrage
upon free people perpetrated by
the ID tyrannical government at
Washington. 1t is needless to say
that the resolution was adopted.
