INDIAN SUMMER.-It is said that
before the white man inhabited this
country, the Aborigines late in every
fall, looked for few days or weeks
of pleasant weather, in which to
gather their supplies of acorns, nuts
ssd fruit, for the coming winter.
This they did, and with them, it was
doubtless a harvest gathering, and
season of rejoicing. They improved
that season in Jerking" their meat
and drying and smoking their fish,
making it a tins of plenty and OF
eIadness not unlike the "killing time
OF the present day. The Indian has
gone to the spirit land, but the Indian
Summer annually returns, with al
it's variable beauties to remind Us Il
prepare for the cold and dreary win
ter which is sure to follow.

A CARD.

The general opinion of all the leading grain
markets is now that the price of wheat instead
of going up may go still lower, in view of the
fact that good crops have been harvested in
England, France. Germany, Hungary, Russia,
etc, and a large crop in California and Oregon,
and there seems to be no cause whatever for
an advance in price. Considering these every
where conceded facts, and the extreme dull
ness in trade all over the country, for one ur-
gently request all my customers, without any
exception, to settle their notes and accounts.at
an early date, in order to enable me to meet
my obligations, as | must have money to do
business with. Very respectfully yours,
OTTO REINKE.

PERsoNAL.-The Dubuque Times
of yesterday compliments the next
Treasurer of Grant County in this
way: "Alex. 1vey, of British Hol-
low. Grant county, was in town yes
terday, and made the Times q visit.
70 has been nominated by the Re-
publicans for County Treasurer of
Grant county. The prospects are
very fatteriug for the success of the
entire Republican tickes in the State,
as we'll as Grant county. The peo.
pie of Wisconsin, like those of
Iowa, seems to be recovering from
the senseless fraud of Liberal-Anti-
Monorolsm, which began with such
a wealth of promises and is ending in
the poverty of barrenness
