GRAND MEADOW, MINI. }
June End, 1874. !
EDIT0H TRANSCRIPT.
AS the Eighth Corporal" has given
you a good account of how the village Of
Grand Meadow is progressing, in SUBJ
stantial improvements, I will speak for
the six mile square. There seems to be
a perfect rush of settlers coming into the
town, there has been nothing like it for
the last five years, almost every quarter
section is being sought after, and land is
changing hands almost every day. Prac.
teal farmers are just waking up to the
fact that Mower County, and especially
the town Of Grand Meadow, has some Of
the best farming lands in the state, and
so cheap that any one who has energy
enough to run a breaking pillow can raise
enough the first crop to pay for the land
and fencing. All it wants is energy and
perseverance. As an example will
mention one who purchased quarter
section last winter for $500, the first Of
this month he had 40 acres broke, and by
July 4th he will have the whole 100
broke, and ready to sow all to wheat as
soon as spring opens, and judging by the
past. he will raise and have ready for
market next season, not less than four
thousand bushels OF wheat. l would
mention this young mans name, but for
his natural lnodesty, and literary dispo.
sition. The above is sample Of what
has and can be done, and that quarter
section is only one Of many in this town
equally as good, and for sale from seven
to ten dollars per acre. The soil in this
town is ola little different quality, from
some Of the towns on the west side of the
county, when the sod ia broken it does
not fail to rot and can easily be made mel
low in the spring by dragging, Tor har-
rowing as the Yankee used to say.)
There is more prairie being broken up
this spring than at any time since the
war. 1t is pleasant to ride over the prai.
ric and sec the many four horse breaking
teams, all intent in turning over as many
acres during the breaking season as pos.
siblc, which closes about July 18th, after
which time the. sod better not be disturbed

| STRANGERS who arc here in great
numhers say that there is moro natur-
al beauty in Austin, than in any other
place which they have visited.

AT the ten: pcrancc meeting held last
Friday evening, Mrs. Kimball. and Mrs.
REV. L. Hall, each spoke briefly Of recent
events in connection with the work, aud
were listened to with marked attention
Sherman Page then made y speech, some
portions of which we hear commended
The audience was large, and contained a
representation from all classes. Tho op-
position manifested some feeling, but
made no violent demonstrations. We do
not anticipate any. None but the most
desperate characters resort to the employ
ment Of physical force, for the accom-
plishmcnt Of their purposes, and such do
It, only when they are driven into the
clostcst corner. A proper prosecution of
these liquor cases involves no collision
with dcspcradocs. 1t is the spirit engeu-
dercd by the quarrels ssAich makes
danger, if any exists. -

SKY Rocket.

G. w. AUSTIN, senior partner of the firm
Of Austin & Chase of this city, has had
ten years experience in tic speciality
Of hardware merchandising, and thinks
he has learned some of its conditions of
success. He would bring the manufact-
urer and the consumer into as close prox-
unity as possible, and himself occupy
all the intermediate space. In doing this
it is necessary to buy-not of jobbers, or
transferccs, but of the very men who
manufactures. For this purpose the new
firm is very fortunately organized. Mr..
G. W. Chase the junior member was en-
gagged in the wholesale business from
1850, to 1868, inclusive, being associated
constantly with all Of the heavy cstab-
lishments of the eastern and middle
states, and with the great transportation
companies. His acquaintance enables
the firm to purchase and to ship upon the
very best terms possible They buy nails
raw iron, and heavy shelf goods, by the
whole cargo, and therefore buy at better
figures than small dealers are able to OBJ
tain. The benefit Of these advantages
they purpose giving to their customers,
and they can do 50, without lesscning
their own profits. The expense Of doing
business of $200, 600 per year, is not one
fourth greater than that of d business OF
$50 ooo, while tho profits viii .-be three
times as much hence this house will use
all proper means of increasing the num-
Der and extent of its transactions. A look
into their back shed will convince all
who wish to erect buildings or to build
fences, that full supply Of nails may be
had, at any time, there being fully 500
kegs in store. The one item of stoves
which they carry would seem to employ
capital sef1icient to do almost any bust
ness of ordinary extent. They keep q
large assortment Of heavy shelf goods.
edge tools, fence wire, tin, &c. &c., also
Tascott's enamel paints. and white lead
and oil. They arc the solo agents for
the celebrated Fairbanks scales, of all
kinds, also in three counties for the empire
clothes wringcr,-for the city of Troy
and for the Stewart cooking stoves, all
Of which arc Of the very best now made
1t is their purpose by greatly reducing
their prices, by keeping the very choicest
kinds of goods, and by strictly hon
orablc dealing to double their business
within the yca:, and ultimately to make
wholesaling asnearly speciality as they
can, consistently with the wants Of their
home customers, in the retail trade. Nc
one SHOULD lose favorably opportunity
to look through their establishment.

Russia and the Laws OF War.

In Europe, and especially in England, the
evident relations Of sympathy between Russia
and the United States have been the subject
Of no small degree Of comment, generally
cynical in tone and pharisaically deprecating
the notion that the freest of people could
have any points family and good will toward
the great autocracy which in theory denied
In England it was fancied that what was
called the coquetry between this country and
Russia was an attention to John Bull. That
sef-suficient parsonage fattered himself that
it was only to keep him on his good behavior
that we troubled ourselves with any attention
to the Northern Bear. But here is now be-
fore the public a fact that indicates
deeper and an unconscious SYM
pathy in good purposes between the
two nations-a relationship not accounted for
by the shallow theory referred to. Only the
United States hitherto among nations has
really endeavored to subject war to rules as
strict as those that govern peace. Only this
nation ever put in the hands Of its command
ers in the field 9 code for the protection of
the people in whose country war was necessa-
rily carried on. Now Russia is endeavoring
TO do in Europe what we did here. It has pre-
pared code that will take from war halt its
horrors, and presents it to the nations and in
vites their attention to its provisions. Eng
land turns cold shoulder, France gives half
hearted assent and Germany proposes the ad-
dition of impossible conditions, and the
"Great Barbarian North, /" like the Great Re-
public, stands well nigh alone in the assertion
Of the interests and the claims of humanity.
This is one of the strange spectacles of the
politics Of our time.
