TIE PELLA BLADE Of last week
has "the most encouraging reports"
from all along the line of the Musca-
tine Western Railroad enterprise.
The Company agrees to run the cars
into the Townships before asking a
cent Of the tax.
Mr.. Donnel's "Pioneers OF Marion
County" will be issued and ready for
delivery Immediately after harvest.
Columbus Long, Of Otley, sold to
Vaughn & Carrier of Newton last
week, forty.nine head of fat cattle,
averaging 1888 pounds. They gained
333 pounds per head, from October
1st to April 9Th, which we call pretty
good, and shows that Columbus is
success as cattle feeder.
The Blade Of yesterday denies that
the Pella folks have offered the Iowa
Southwestern 100000 to come that
way, as elsewhere alleged.
III. j. CrOll of Pella has been ap-
pointed a Deputy Sheriff for this
County.

At Railroad meeting in Otley
last Saturday, Committee of three
was appointed to solicit means to
defray the expenses of preliminary
survey of the proposed North-and-
South Railroad between Otley and
Knoxville. A like survey has al
ready been made between here and
Newton; and it is to be hoped the
people south of the river will interest
themselves to secure its extension to
the County-seat.
Rev. Charles Hannah, Congrega-
tionalist, and late Pastor of the
Charges at Prairie City, Monroe and
Otley, preached his farewell sermon

for writing, and regret that their

The important items, however, we
learned from other sources SO as to
mention last week.
BY the way, let us remark tc
friends who may be SO kind as tc
send items, &C., by mail, that the
present state Of mail arrangements
here compels us to go to press now
earlier than formerly, and conse'
quently communications must reach
us earlier than formerly in order to
be in time.

AN ACCIDENT?-We learn that On
Wednesday evening of last week, as
Mrs. Ely, Of Red Rock Tp., was
coming out from the barn on her
premises, to return to her house, she
was struck on the head, either by a
weapon in the hands of some un-
known person, or by something fall
ing, with such violence that it infiict-
ed a severe wound and rendered her
unconscious for some time. 1t was at
first believed that she must die; but
we are informed that DR.. Johnson,
her physician, has hopes for her re-
cOVery.

VERSAILLES, April ID.

q NERSAILLES, April 10.
B Theirs, in circular dated the even
u ing of the 18th, describes the situa-
tion as in the main unchanged. He
: says the Government will act at the
pro per time. The Commune accounts
7 of a victory at Paris are false. They
are unprineipled. Our victory will
hcome bloodlessly.
Paris delegates have arrived, and
Nwere received, not because they are
!. Communists, but because they were
Z Republicans. The answer to them
! was that no one menaced Republic
\ but assassins.
!, The lives of the insurgsnts will be
4 spared, but the workmen temperate
ly subsidized in Paris must return to
d their labors, and secession must be
suppressed, as it was in America.

OUR PART.-A will be seen by
other paragraphs in this paper, the
people along the line of the proposed
Iowa, Minnesota and Northern Pa
cific Railroad Company are not idle.
The enterprise daily assumes more
tangible shape. We commend it to
the attention of our readers. In de-
fault of any organized action here, OF
authorized expression from any par
ties here, we can only repeat-and
we deem itworth while now to repeat
what we have before said on this
subject, namely, that the people OF
Knoxville and vicinity already have
their hands full in coming up to theil
obligations in regard to the Abba
Knoxville and Des Moines Railroad
which is now building. We cannot
think that the present is favorable
time to call on us here for any mate
rial aid to any new Railroad enter
prise, however good for us. But we
feel assured that, SO soon as circum
stances will allow, our people will dc
their fair and liberal share toward
the above proposed Railroad, fol
their own and the common interest.
Meanwhile we would suggest the
ACCESSIBILITY of forming here, and
soon, some organized and authorized
nucleus upon which to rally for future
effort in this regard when the proper
time arrives. Would not our 0wr
interests be advanced by SO doing?.

How ?-The Abba Spirit Of the
West of last week has the following
at the beginning Of an editorial
article:
Alta meeting held in Knoxville
last week by the officials OF the A.
X. d d. II. II. Company, it was
resolved, $50 we are inforned), to
finish the road from Abba, on the

Farther, that they would insure a
