The New York Nation, prcfcrring
Grant to Greeley, retorts upon its
critics thus; "Therc is nothing in
Greeley's career to lead the Nation to
suppose that, as either civil service
reformer or revenue rcformer, he is
any better than Grant; his political as
sociates are, on the whole, worse than
Grants his conceit and self-confidence
and restlessness ten-fold greater than
Grants; and also his gullibility." This,
from an anti-Grant Republican journal
that Democrats and Liberals have been
wont to quote with special satisfaction,
has the higher authority Of generally
recognized truth.

good deal lately among the solid men
Of the countryside farmers--I think a
word or two from me would not be
aIniss.
I have seen the growing crops on the
river bottoms, the rolling prairies and
the undesirable fiat lands. In some
fields Of the latter kind. King corn
looks like he might loose his crown;
but take itson an average, corn will
make a pretty fair showing. The
weather is right now for il, and FARM
ers are very busy string the ground
and killing weeds. Spring wheat is
good also, oats. Fall wheat is very
poor; only now and then piece worth
any thing. think Wapello county
will have more apples this year than it
ever had in any year before.
Bladensburg is improving. Inotice
large building just erected, designed
for business rooms below and Gram
gers Hall above, which when finished
will make 4 fine building and add
much to the appearance Of the town.
The village contains two church build
ings, belonging to the Methodist and
Christian dcnominations-both neat
and commodious hoBs6s.
Undoubtedly this place has BE- good
farming community around it asAany,
townin the county. BY the way, the
Changers are pretty strong here num-
bering, it Is said, nearlya hundred.
There should be change in the
mail facilities at this place. The pre-
sent condition of things is an outrage
on the intelligence ola tbickly settled
community. They should have, at
least, q tri-weekiy mail; but they have
only weekly. Very Truly.
