Governor Merrill has written to
the committee having in choice the
convention for the removal of the
National Capital, to learn whether
such men as J. -. breckenridge
and other rebel leaders who fought
for four years for the Sunny South"
are to be leading spirits in the Con-
vention before issuing credentials to
tile Iowa delegates. The Governor
evidently thinks the Convention,
can be managed without the aid OF
rebels.

To the Republicans OF
IONNH.

In less than three weeks the annu-
al election in this State will occur.
A Governor and other important
officers are to he elected, upon whom
many important duties will devolve,
including the election of two L. :.
Senators, one to fill Senator Grimes
unexpired term, and one for full
term commencing March, 1871.
County and township officers are also
to be elected. 1t will therefore be
seen that the election is one of the
greatest Importance, having direct
bearing upon questions of national
and State policy, as well as the eco
nomical and honest management of
county and township affairs. The
Republican party, which has con-
trolled the affairs of the State for the
last fifteen years, and under whose
management we have made such
unexampled progress, has ticket in
the field worthy Of the support Of
every Republican voter. So far as
we are advised the county nominal
tons are wisely made; and it only
remains for the people to attend the
election and deposit their ballots to
secure their election by more than
the usual majorities, and show to the
world that We take no steps back
ward in the march of progress-that
we have not, in the least, faltcred in
devotion to the great principles of
liberty and justice, and that we
heartily sustain the great party
which has saved the country from
anarchy and ruin, aud which is so
solemnly pledged to honesty. ard
economy in all departments of gov
eminent.
Let every Republican so arrange
his affairs as to be at the polls on the
Second Tuesday of October.-Bur.

How Land Increases i'm
Value.

Az instance of how land increases
in value in Black Hawk county is
given in the following brief item:
Mr.. Stumpenhauser purchased q
farm seven miles Southwest of town
within the past two years, So and s.
per acre and sold il last week for sos
per acre. The land was not fenced
and he had made no improvements
upon it except to put up q very ordi-
nary house. So it goes. Land that
few years ago was entered at gov
eminent price or purchased for a
mere song in the vacinity of Cedar
Falls now is held at 500 per acre.
Land is increasing rapidly in value
in Iowa and more especially in the
Cedar Valley. Investments in farms
where the purchasers money has
doubled in value in are year one of
frequent occurrence. There is a solid
reality in such investments. Oh
this Iowa; The destined first and
central agricultural state of the
Union.

AN EMINENT PHYSICIAN of New
York, in writing to the proprietors
of Roback's Medicines, says: II
have examined the formula you sent
me of Roback's Blood Pills, and am
glad TO notice that you do not use
any mercury or other mineral sub
stance in their composition. The
podophllin employed is, in my opin-
ion, the best article that can enter
into the composition of cathartic
pill, and is one of the most valuable
cholagOgue cathartics, operating
mildly yet effectually, arousing the
whole hillary and digestive apparatus.
"Their range of application is, per-
haps, more extensive than any other
carthartic or liver pill, combining, as
they do, the active principle of man
drake root and black cohosh in such
an eminent degree, and are really a
desirable family medicine, which can
be taken at all times 10y children, as
we'll as adults, with the happiest re-
suits"

with and without sugar coating, at
twenty-five cents per box, and can be
