FROM INF TRIBUNE FiLES


A visit to the burying ground of this
village will be sufficient to satisfy any
one that Improvement is necessa ry.
At this time it is almost impossible to
pass around the graves in consequence
of the bushes and trees, which give it
the appearance of dense forest. A
few dollars expended in grubbing and
cleaning out the young trees and bushes,
and trimming what might be properly
left for shade would give very differ
ent appearance TO the place. We pre-
sumo there are none of our citizens
who would decline small contribution,
either in money or labor for so desirable
an object.
In this number will be found the pro-
ceedings of the meeting of the Iowa
County Agricultural Society. The SO
ciety will hold semi-annual Cattle
Show and Fair on the second Fridays
and Saturdays in May and October in
Mineral Point or elsewhere in the coun-
ty of Iowa as may be determined by 9
vote of the society. The premuimt

dent, Samuel Crawford treasurer and

Mr.. John Myers of this place was
found dead on Saturday near his dig
gings a little east of town in conse-
quence of making too free use of poor
whiskey. A Frenchman lay a few
yards from the deceased very much ex-
hausted, probably from assisting to
empty jug. which was found at the
place.
An effort is being made by Gov.
Wood of Ohio to have a uniform day

The late battle As the smoke Of ex-
element subsidies, and the facts begin
to be developed, the news is much
more favorable to the federal troops
than at first. The number first report
ed killed was from 1000 TO G, 1000 This
number has been reduced to less than
one thousand and some reports say that
600 will cover the killed and wounded.
The panic undoubtedly originated with
the teamsters and civilians, who were
between the main army and the re-
serves. The troops engaged in the
fight are represented as behaving man
fully; and fell back in order. The panic
was undoubtedly unknown to the re-
bells, or they were so badly whipped as
to be unable to follow up the advantage
they had gained, else the result might
have been much more disastrous. The
Second Wisconsin Regiment was in the
engagement and quite number wound
ed, though none from this county that
we can learn. II will be a number of
days before full particulars are received
and we shall not be surprised to learn
of the loss OF some of the Miners
Guards.
