county will meet in delegate conven-

for the purpose of putting in nomin-

without the announcement of the
name of a single individual as ap-
pealing to his fellow Republicans for

them in some public capacity. We
shall not presume to indicate, there

be no one particularly aspiring. The
attention of the public has been at
tracted of late more closely than ever
before to the personal and official
character and acts of those who occu-
ply or are candidates for public places;
and it is certainly fair to presume, in
the absence Of any indications to the
contrary, that the delegates from the
various townships in Cedar county
will come to the convention next Sat
urday, understanding and respecting
the wishes of their respective constit-
uents. This done without fear or
favor, the action of the convention
will be certain of ratification by the
people at the polls.

but not so satisfied with the results.
Several foxes were unearthed and three
made excellent runs, but mary a one
was caught. Mon Reynard was far too

are reminded that the COMMERCIAL has
no resources beyond its subscriptions and
its business advertisements. 1t gets
nothing from the state and county in the
way of official notices. Those which are
seen in it are always printed as informa
ton to our readers. We urge all who
wish for our success to aid us by sending
us some new subscribers and paying up
their own dues.

Loss Of the Mississippi.

We very much regret to record the
loss of the steamship Mississippi, of the
Dominion line, running between Liver
pool and New Orleans. The steamship
was on her passage from Liverpool for
New Orleans, having left the former on
the 3lst March, with a cargo composed
mostly of cotton ties and iron, on a draft
of seventeen feet of water. On the morn
ing of the Goth inst, while the Mississip-
pi was running down the reef, she went
unexpectedly aground about 2:3o A. NJ,
striking heavily, and commenced leaking
Immediately, and so rapidly did the
water gain that about twelve hours after
wards her forward hold was full, and her
after hold had five feet of water. The
shoal on which the Mississippi lies is OF
the most dangerous character, and there
is every probability that she will be
total loss. She is first-class iron Brit
ish steamship, and has been employed on
the line between Liverpool and New
Orleans. Her master is young officer
about thirty years of age, on his second
voyage, The Mississippi was the second
of the Dominion line steamers to stop at
Port Royal for coal. She came in here
on the twentieth of December last. She
was then under the command of Capt.
Roberts. The Mississippi was expected
to stop here on her return trip from New
Orleans to take in coal
