the past three weeks.
Now, as to the ultimate advantage

bull in a china cup" Mr.. Newell
stated to our delegation, that the
shops would only be completed as far
as the donations would admit of.
Then we shall see 5000, between
this and next December, used in the
building of shops that were to cost
5000, 900. What will they be then
but temporary sheds? and what as
surance have they that the same "bo-
nus" will not have to be duplicated a
year or two hence, in order to keep
them? What will bind the directors
and officers two or three years from
now, to stand by the pledges of the
present ones? When Mr.. Newell ex-
pressed his doubt whether the pres
ent directors would back them i'm
their decision to locate the shops az
Waterloo, he undoubtedly knew
what he was saying, and the citizens
of Waterloo may surmise what the
remark meant
But we do not propose to discuss
this matter farther for the present.
We congratulate our neighbors on
their good luck, and would suggest
to them that when they once get the
squirrel up a tree, to keep good look
out and the ammunition ready, to load
and fire at any moment. IL

MRS. FLETCHER IN MINNEsoTA.-
We see by the st. Paul and Mime
apolis papers, that Minnesota is Civ
ing Iowa's young, talented and hand
some poetess grand reception at all
points. The Minneapolis Tribune
says the principal! charm about Mrs.
Fletcher's lecture is that she uses no
rantIng, no hammer.and-tongues
style of argument, but speaks with
spice and rich humor, and in the
humor consists vein that few
American women on the rostrum
possess. We are glad to see success
browning her earnest efforts where
ever she goes. She is building up a
reputation that must insure her invi-
tations without limit, to lecture next
winter. Although we do not dislike
to here lecture on any subject, when
what 10 said is said t0eU, but we hope
the day will soon come when she
will abandon the woman question
and devote her talents to lite
rary subjects, where her labors weuld
be more useful, and where her audi.
ence could unanimously join i'm sym
pathy with what she so pleasantly
and forcibly says. The woman ques.
ton may be ever so beautifully pre-.
scented but il can never bring re-
spouse from those who believe that
the ballot to women would be ca
lamity to society.

AN OLD RELIC.-We have been
handed, by our townsman l.. b.
Holt, copy of the first number of
the Connecticut Cotrant, published
Oct. Goth, 1764, is therefore 100 years
old lacking few months. Looking
over its ancient style, two wide coll
umns to the page and printed on
common store wrapping paper, 1t
suggests many changes since then,

ism. 1t states, printed by Thomas
Green at the Heart and Crown near
the North Meeting House." If
Thomas were to rise from his grave
and look for the old North Meeting
House and the Co,wdnt printing off,
ce, he would undoubtedly conclude
that things are not "as they used
20 was.n ...
We have been so much amused in
looking over some its paragraphs,
that we cannot fefrain from making
a few extracts.
Under date of Boston, Oct. LIST, it
says: r.. ~ --.gar
at is now out or fashion to put on
mourning at The funeral of the near
est relation, which will make a saw
lug to this town of twenty thousand
sterling per annHm. 1t is surprising
how suddenly, as well as how gem
orally an old custom is abolished, il
shows however the good sense of the
town.
In another place it says:
"We are told that all the funefl ~
of last week were conducted on the
new plan of frugality."
BY which, We suppose good many
were dying about that time.
The National Debt seems to have
been weighing heavily upon them,
as it says: .. ....
Nothing but Frugality can now
save the distressed Northern Colonies
from impending ruin. 1t ought to
be consolation to the good of cer-
tain province, that the greatest man
in 1t exhibits the most rigid example
of his political as we'll as moral val
ue."
We presume the editor was refer:
ring to Horace Greeley's father.
With an eye to giving the mother
country dig and the shoemakers of
Massachusetts, boost, it says:
The Northern Colouists have sense
enough, ut least the sense of feeling,
and can tell where the shoe pincheS.
The delicate ladies begin to learn by
experience, that the shoes made at
Lyn are much easier than those of
the make of Mr.. Hose of London.
In another place, we find the fol-
lowing "local item" from which we
conclude that there must have been
some stretching of Imagination then
as well as these days:
.."A surprising confederation of
erents to one man an a Week.-Put.
lished Sunday-married Monday
had child Tuesday-stole horse
on Observation-Disclosures OH Thurs
day-died Friday-huried a Satur-
day-All in one week"
We are reliably informed that it
was not very good week for ICON
catenations" either.

THE ENGINE ALMOST IN SIGHT, -
Tracklaying is progressing success
fully between Vinton and La Porte
City. The engine will be heard at
La Porte City in q fortnight. The
culverting and bridges are under
way between La Porte City and
Waterloo, and soon we shall hear the
scream of the locomotive at our
own doors.
The agreement upon which our
subscriptions have been made to this
Company, includes a gift of depot
grounds. We are informed by Mr..
Traer that these grounds must be
selected and right of way secured at
once. The officials of the Company
are expected in this city to-day,
when they will conclude arrange
ments for the location of the depot
and for the necessary right of way.
Our citizens must act promptly and
literally in this matter, so that the
benefits to be derived from this
new railway connection can not be
long deferred.
We learn from Mr.. Traer that Mr..
J. Il. Fowler, formerly of the Sioux
City IL Pacific II. r., has the con-
tract for putting down the iron and
that he has obligated himself to have
the track completed to Waterloo by
the 18th of July. He expects, how
ever, to reach our city ten days
earlier Waterloo Courier.
