ANN ELIZA, the nineteenth rib of
''Brother Brigham" lec,ured in the
City Hall in this place, on Monday
evening last. And just here we ave
led to wonder how in the world Tip
ton SO obtained the i'll will of ..Old
Probs" that she can't announce lee
ture without he will simu ltaneously
trot out the nastiest kind of storm.
If there is any way in which to pla-
cate the old fellow we hope il may
speedily be done, for our lecture ex-
perience in the past has been such
that, although the weather was bliss
fully pleasant at bedtime Sunday
evening, no one who remembered the
lecture was surprised when Monday
ushered in cold disagree able fall rain
storm and proved to be about as un-
favorable day as could have been
invented. But despite the weather
quite large audience-mueh larger
than any one expectea-ga'hered to
meet Mrs. Young, some of them com
ing from as far as Stanwood and Clar-
ence.
The lady appeared before her hear
ers at precisely eight o'clock. being
introduced by Rev. r. Swearingen.
A description Of personal appearance
and attire is not in our line, but Mrs.
Young looked the very opposite of
Aashy and foolish, judged by either or
both. She was just an earnest but
bright and interesting looking woman,
plainly dressed in black, who came
for purpose to which she was alone
devoted. This purpose was abund-
antly indicated in the course Of her
lecture, which occupied something
more than an hour, and which was de-
ivered in a manner free from affecta-
ton or self assertion, and with voice
that, although not at its best, was yet
very pleasant in quality aud very
skilfully used. Her lecture, rs
indicated by its title, was the story
Of her life in Utah, which she made
the natural vehicle for vigor-
Gus attack upon the ''twin rclic."-
She has been well called "a womanly
woman" and as lecturer, she is
making fine success, charming her
audiences with the modesty and sim
plicity with which she tells her touch
ing story, and draws her earnest con-
illusions.

WINNEsHIEK INSURANCE CON-
PANY.-The following, from the Mus
catine journal Of last week, will
doubtless be of interest to quite a
number of persons in this county:
On YESTERDAY, in response to call
Of ten defendants printed in the
Journal last week, twenty defend
ants in the suits instituted by the
assignee of the defunct Winneshiek
Insurance Company to recover pay
ment of premium notes met in this
city 10 discuss and determine wheth-
er to give up the ship or defend
against this swindle..
Geo. w. Messick presided and J.
G. Evans was chosen as secretary.
Representatives were present from
Cedar and Louisa counties as well rs
our own. John Safely and Josiah
Swinehart, of Upton, represented
Cedar.
The meeting resolved to employ
counsel to make preliminary inves-
tigation, collect facts and conclude
whether or not there is reasonable
ground to expect that success would
attend defense, whereupon a mo.
ton was passed to employ Messrs.
Cloud and Broomhall to make the
proper investigation.
A resolution was also passed that
each Of the twenty persons present be
a committee to see other defendants
not present and confer with them
about joining in this club to defend
their suits, and that defendants in
Johnson and Scott counties be invited
to join Muscatine, Cedar and Louisa
in the defense. Also, that they Join
in proper call through the press of
this county for others to Join them
and that they publish their proceed
ings in the papers.
Each person sued must answer for
himself or judgment will be brought
by default. Hence prompt action is
required.

SOUTHWESTERN RAILROAD REpI-
vlvUs.-No item Of news can be more
acceptable and gratifying to our read
ers than the intelligence that work
has been resumed on the Southwest
ern Railroad, and that thirty FIVE
miles will be in operation by the 18th
of March next. Mr.. Hinckley was
in the city last week accompanied by
Mr.. WslIbaum, contractor for the G.
B. & Q. Railroad, and an agreement
was entered into by which the afore-
men ioned parties agreed to build
and have in operation ihirty-fve
miles of road by the 10Th of March
ten miles of which is to be built from
this city to Lenox and the remaining
twenty-five from Clinton west. and
the entire line between this city and
Clinton will be completed early next
season.
Mr.. Wallbaum, the contractor, in
formed a gentleman in this city that
if the weather continued propitious
he would without the shadow Of q
doubt have the thirty-6ve miles in
operation within sixty days.
Should there be ; failure on the
part Of Mr.. Hinckley to complete the
number Of miles above indicated.
within the time specified, he forfeits
all rights and interest he may have in
the road, and is enjoined from any
interference to transfer Of the road
TO other parties. He said consider
ing the unfriendly Legislation toward
railroads he could not have been in
duced 10 engage in this as an origin
al projec,, but IS he has several hun
bred thousand dollars already invest
ed in this line he is compelled to
complete it.
There is now no question about the
completion Of the rosd.-Losca City

MORE DEsrlruTIoN.-Mr Johnson,
from near Pleasant Hill, hands US .
lengthy "appeal" issued by the Aid
Committee Of Smith county, Kansas,
in behalf of the destitute of that re-
gion. The document, which occupies
more than column Of printed matter,
sets forth q sad condition of affairs
and earnestly asks sid--money, food,
or clothing. 1t says the county
contains about FIVE thousand peo-
pie, Eat least two thousand of whom
are in a manner destitute now and
will be forced to depend upon char
ity within the next two MONTHS and
concludes by averiny that, I'VE feel
no humiliation in thus presenting our
Just wants, for we feel that we are
in one sense soldiers Of the nation
who are conquering nature in her be-
half
Quite 4 number Of former citizens
Of Ced,r county are now residents in
Smith,and many Of our readers doubt
less have late news from friends there
and know accurately what the stu
alton is. Indeed, it is but fair to
state that in handing us the "appeal''
Mr.. johnson said he did not know
who sent it to him, and that his
brother, who lives in Smith county,
had lately written him that although
there was undoubtedly much desti-
tuition there, he thought the DISPOSE
tion was to exaggerate it.

MANY postmasters are just now
receiving circulars from Washington
to the effect that the Department is
compelled to temporarily suspend the
issue Of stamped envelopes owing to
the fact that the new contractors on
those goods are not prepared with
facilities for doing the work.
Just here it may be well to OBJ
serve that business men will find at
the ADVERTISER office a fine assort-
ment of large sized envelopes upon
which they can have their business
card with return request printed to
order. Government, when not out
Of sock, no longer prints a business
card as it used to do. All it will do
is to print the address with request
