FROM DURANT.

Business is fair, though little is be-
ing done IN grain or live stock.
Crooks & Furst have moved into
their new store, and now have the
finest store room in town.
Loomis & Linsley have opened a
general store in the building lately oc-
cupied by Crooks & Furst. This il the
second new store opened here this sea
son
Our public schools closed last Friday
for vacation Of two months. The at
tendance during the last term has not
been as full as last summer and the
necessity for compulsory school law
is demonstrated every term.
The Fourth passed quietly here, there
being no attempt at q ceiebr alton. A
picnic was held in the grove south of
Dnrant, under the auspices of the
Grsngers. and of the same nature
northwest of town. These were quite
literally patronized. We heard some
complain Of being treated to a purely
Autobiography speech, by Mr.. Cloud
at the White Pigeon gathering.
A sad casualty occurred here in the
morning. A few small boys attempt
ed to fire cannon, and in loading the
second time, not having cooled the
gun. a premature explosion was pro-
duced, and boy about thirteen years
old standing ia front of the muzzie
wa fearfully burned. The skin on his
face was completely burned off, and
his eyes are probably ruined.
Barley harvest has commenced and
promises heavy yield. Wheat is fast
ripeniDg, and ia q week will be ready
for cutting. The straw is large, but

n Visit to q Stock Farm.

A few days ago party of us visited
the farm Of d. Cookson, Jr., Downey.
After enjoying q good substantial din
ner we went out to see the farm and
cate. In rich pasture field, a short
distance from the house, we found a
nice herd of thoroughbred short horn
cattle. AT the head Of the herd stood
the second Grand Duke Of Airdria. a
fine dark red bull, tour years old,
sigbing !, 200 pounds; next Luange-
line Second, pretty, dark red, four
year old COW; Luangeline Sixth. a fin-
roam, six years old, weighing / 700
hounds; Belle Watson, roam, i've year
old; Zowyda. six years Old; aiso q roam;
and Rhoda Sixth n nice red and white
heifes- All the above we are told are
from the noted Glen Flora herd, of
Waukegan, Ill. The celebrated Belle
Knox. six years old bred by Mrs Bry-
an. Of Arlington, ILL.,, and Missouri, q
neat, we'll made heifer, brings up the
rear in the field. On coming TO the
barn we were shown a splendid young
bull, eight months old that will weigh
500 pounds; calf from Belle Knox,
by h. Gywine, and three other
young thoroughbreds. The Canadian
stock Of horses is represented here in
the shape of splendid hay horse,
standing seventeen and half hands
weight, 1850 pounds. Mr.. G. has
II ie lot of cattle, aud deserves some
praise for his pains in trying to i'm
prove the stock of the county. We

'Clinton county appointed clear
unanimous Cotton delegation, and the
Convention most cordially endorsed
the course of our member in Congress.
Nothing more appreciative could be
desired.
"Cedar has selected men, part of
whom at least are reported 10 be
friendly TO Cotton's denomination but
the whole delegation NAV vote for
their own man, Hon. J. @. Tufts.
zones county delegates-in case
Of the withdrawal of Russell, which
is probable-are reported to be in ia
vor of Price.
jackson, As before mentioned, goes
squarely for Cotton Muscatine for
Burnett; and Scott witholds its hand
yet.
"Upon the basis OF the State Con-
vention call, Clinton county is emit
tied to IL votes, Cedar to 8, Jackson
to 10, Jones to 9, Muscatine to 8,
and Scott to 8. Readers can make
their own estimates and guesses. The
result is still doubtful, as we coniec-
ture; with the chances, however, de
cidedly in favor Of Cotton's renomin-
alton"
The above is from the Lyons Mr.
and though the statements are not
precisely correct, yet it shows how
the situation is viewed in Mr.. Cot
tons stronghold, and also calls forth
the following comments from the
Davenport G0zette:
ave have only to add to this ex-
hibit that the Republicans of Clinton
present candidate for Congress
whom they allowed to run 662 behind
Grant two years ago, and who came
within ISL of being beaten in dis
trict which gave Grant 3,4O0 major
ity. The only other county which is
reported "squarely for Cotton" is
Jackson, which allowed him to ran
1852 behind Grant in 1872. What
ever reasons or appliances may have
secured these expressions in his ia
