A subscriber stops the COURIER be-
cause one of its editors, on the COM
mittec on resolutions in the last Re.
publican State Convention, refused
to report temperance plank for the
platform.
We should have been inconsolable
at the loss Of this liberal minded sub.
scriber, but for the fact that we
learned inoidently that he belonged
to the wife whipping gentry, and
had handsomely polished her off the
day before stopping his paper.
After consultation with our
friends. and mature elaboration, we
have concluded not to suspend pub
fishing our paper on account of this
loss.
Anyotherhigh toned gentlemen, who
divides his time between lamming
his wife and slangwhanging about
organizing better temperance par
" than ours, can have what is due
him refunded, aud his paper stopped,
on short notice.

joys, and the character, public spirit
and wealth of her mercantile men.
At the commencement Of tho war
her jobbing trade was q mere bagga-
telle, but with a plucky spirit which
challenged success, her business men
went for the wholesale business Of
the country roundabout, previously
occupied by Chicago, Burlington and
Keokuk drummers,) until to-day, aid
ed by cheap freights resulting from
competition at this point, we are
now successfully rivalling the largest
cities in the entire State, in the OK.
tent and proftableness Of our whole
sale business.
The retail goods business, has kept
pace with the wholesale, SO that we
now have houses here, which in their
elegant surroundings, and magnifi-
cent stocks, are not surpassed out
side Of Metropolitan cities.
Among the leading retail houses
here in the general merchandise
business, which are at once o source
Of pride and profit to the community,
is that of s. CLANCY & Bro. in Union
Block, who are now receiving q stock
of goods which it is adelight to look
upon.
Mr.. Sim. CLANCY, Of this house, is
one of the oldest merchants in the
Des Moines Valley, and he is there
fore perfectly familiar with the
needs of the people, who will find
his shelves literally groaning under
the weight of the Dry Goods, Dress
Goods &C., &C., which he has just
purchased with great care and at
very low prices in New York and
Boston.
He paid special attention to the
purchase of an extra stock of boots
h shoes, which he bought directly
from the New England Manufacto-
ries, and which are of tho very best
quality, as we can testify to, from q
personal inspection.
The Charey Bros. have been lib
eral and fair dealers in all the COM
modities of the firm, and their mag.
nificent store here, and splendid bust
ness, as we'll as their thriving branch
establishment at Red Oak Junction
testify to we'll deserved success in
business which we are happy to
chronicle.
In conclusion we have to say to
the readers OF the COURIER in this
and adjoining counties, that you
can't find more extensive stock of
general merchandise to select from in
Ottumwa, or any other Iowa town,
or moro upright and clever men to
deal with than Sim. and Burt. Cha
