BUsINEss.-From q communication from
Camden, our readers will perceive that the
Camden folks are determined 70 secure the
Mozart Watch Factory, At a late meeting
there the capital stock was increased TO
IS, $50. The work of multiplying this
amount is being vigorously prosecuted. It
is possible with the right men at the head
of this movement that the works will vet be
with the enterprising spirit of the citizens OF
Rock Island, Moline and Davenport, steps
have not already been taken to secure tc
this community the interests Of the company.
With our growing manufactures, it is of no
use to hug the phantom of hope until some
other place shall have added to its strength
this most desirable of workshops. The
company has made a fair offer; they mean
what they say, and will set up their works
where the best chances are given. If the
people of tbs three cities at this point would
set themselves at work and secure q larger
contribution than will be collected else
where, they might have the satisfaction OF
seeing in their midst one of the most exten
sive watch manufactures in the country.
All that is needed is for some Of our active
men of influence to take the lead, and then
many others will fall into the ranks, and
with little exertion their efforts will be
crowned with a glorious victory. Now lie
the time to be up and doing. Who will

Who WILL ACCOUNT FOR IT?- Thai
immense beds of coal are fonnd in the earth
does not seem wonderful because thei,
origin is known and their manner of deposit
is easily understood. But there are often
found imbedded in the solid earth at the
depth of many feet pieces of wood in such a
state Of preservation as to have its grain
plainly visable. An instance of such q find
ing occurred a few days ago in Drury town
ship. Our informant tells us that Mr.
Brown while digging we'll struck solid
substance at a depth of thirty feet. Upon
removing it, he found it to be piece OF
wood about three feet in length and ten
inches in diameter. One peculiarly about
it was that one end was ragged as if torn or
wrenched from the main body of the tree,
while the other end presented q cross section
perpendicular to q line passing through the
centre of the stick tengthwise. Here is q
question for our scientific wonder hunters
When and BY whom, and with what kind Of
an instrument was the stick cut from it's
parent stock. and how did it become buried
at such depth in the solid ground? Was
it covered gradually by deposition of soil
or was it doated to its position by current
of water such as are known to traverse the
earth in many q secluded bed? These are
Questions upon which, perhaps, some of our
biologists can inform us.
