Making Coffee BY sscana.

The following programme for sup
plying the Reunion folks at Dcs
Moincs with coffee and steak, We
clip from the State Register:
The Soldiers Re- unlon Committee
have been experimenting for several
days in making coffee by steam, and
have now got the thing to perfection.
They will make it in barrels by
steam, and will make q barrel in
twenty nintes. BY the kindness of
Gen. L. A. Grant, we lest evening
tasted cup made in the proposed
way, and VIC pronounced it good
just as good as could be made. The
coffee item is no small one. If there
are 10000 soldiers here counting a
pint to man it will take over eighty
barrels Of coffee to meal. A barrel
OF coffee made by steam will keep hot
at least four hours, and can be made
at any place in the city where steam
is used-all the preparation required
being the arranging Of pipes to con-
vey the steam into the barrels.
Tho meat for the soldiers will also
be cooked BY steam. Eighty nice
fat thrcc-ycar old steers have already
been bought, aud the committee as.
sure us that good steak will be in
abundance asl elt sls

Your warm sympathy and active

When you lett your native homes, you

Correction Na z.
In the proceedings of the County
Republican Convention, we attempt
ed to give the names of the three
gentleman selected by the Conven.
ton as the County Central Commit.
tee, Tor the ensuing year. The com.
positor omitted the name Of one Of
the gentlemen, despite our correction
of the proof sheet.
Last week, we essayed to remedy
the error, and, while getting the
name ~, that was left oct, the week
before, we got one Of the other gen.
tlemen's names wrong. We again
make the attempt TO right the wrong
aud hope o.- courage ~,tt 10 duty

wit, namely

The fact is that in this county,
Brown is almost no name at all. Its
nominativeness is on par with that
OF John Smith. This whole country
is full OF Browns, and if Mr. Brown
was informed some day, that his house
was burned, halt the county would
I've in alarms.
We knew that one of the hundred,
or less, Browns to whom we weekly

committee, but our pen went astray
IN designating the particular indivld-

we are confident that this one item

The first Governor Of the State Of
Iowa is still alive. His name is An
sci Briggs, and hi. home Is Andrew,
Jackson County. In those days,
jackson county held the reins Of au-
thority, and, on the organization Of
the State government, furnished the
first Governor. Gov. Briggs had
been a member of the Territorial
Legislature of 1912. The Gov
ernor was elected as . Democrat, Of
course, and to that ancient and anti
quated political faith he still clings.
He is now IN his Gath year, and, ex-

serious nature, is still full OF health

This work is prepared upon the
novel principle of combining an Or
binary English spelling, pronoun-
cling, and defining dictionary, with
an illustrated encyclope lila Of the
arts, sciences biography, history,
geography, &c. 1t does not aim at
the fullness of treatment possible in
cyclopedias which confine themselves
to more limited range Of subjects;
but it is wonderfully comprehensive,
and conveys under elch head a far
more satisfactory amount of infOr-
nation than We should have sup
posd it possible to compress into the
small space that has Been allowed.
Mr.. Colange has apparently perform
cd his task with great cars ano NJ, ~
general with good ju2smen.' W
nave noticed few Important o,h's-
sions amt few serious mistakes.
Some Of the biographical notices are
strangely dispoportionate With one
another. bat this ie fault almost in
evitable in encyclopaedia making, and
not very serious one either. Liv-
ing characters are included, and A
merican celebrities receive liberal at
tention. The editor seems to have
taken great pains to obtain late sta
tistics, as well as to include titles
which have only recently acquired
Importance. Thus he gives an &C
count Of the Chassepot rifle, with
drawing, and in its due place we
shall, doubtless, have description OF
the needle gun also.
Although on account Of the neces-
sity Of compression the book is prin-
ted in small type and on thin paper,
the text is very clear, and the typo
graphical arrangement such as to
give the eye all possible relief The
wood-cuts are in profuse abundance
and il some Of the more strictly orna-
mental ones hardly give sufficient
reason for their existence, others are
a great assistance in illustrating sci
cntiiic and technical topics. The
