(1M-S1) i^s THE PREMIUM engraving issued by Peterson's Magazine is really a beau tiful und costly mezzotint, after Eh uinger. The subject is Washing ton's First Interview with his Wife." The slory is romantic. Washington, on his way to join Gen. Braddock, iu the great French and Indian war, stopped, with his orderly, ut the White House, since so celebrated in the Virginia campaigns of McClellan, Lee and Graut. Here he met a young aud beautiful widow with whom he was so fascinated, that the orderly, In stead of being summoned within half an hour, as he had expected, led Washington's horse up and down near ly all day, while his enamored master was iinteiHng to the gay sallies of the charming Mrs. Custia. The result is a matter of history. Mrs. C'ustis be came the wife of the great hero, and was known In after years as Lady Washington.

That those of our readers who have not had an opportunity of seeing any of the volnmes may have an idea of its general plan and scope, we give the following extract from the pub lishers' prospectus: "The American Cyclopaedia jfre sents a panoramic view of all human knowledge as it exists at the present time. It embraces every subject that can be thought of. It contains an in exhaustible fund of accurate and prac tical information on art and science in ail their branches, including mechan ics, mathematics, astronomy, philoso phy, elierniwtry ami physiology on agriculture, commerce and manufac ture* on law, medicine and theoloiry on biography and history, geography aud ethnology political economy, the trades, inventions, politics, the things oi common life, and general literature. The industrial arts and those branches of practical science which huve a direct bearing on our every-day life are also treated with the thoroughness which their gTeat importance demands. The dejrtirt ment of biography is full and com plete, embracing the livss of all emi nent persons, ancient and modern, including distinguished characters still living. In history the American Cyclopedia gives no mere catalogue of barren date*, bui a copious and spirit ed narrative of the principal events in ti»e annals of the world. In geogra phy it not only serves as a general gazetteer, but gives interesting de Hcriptioris of the principal localities mentioned derived from fresh and au thentic sources. Throughout the whole work, perfect fairness to all sections of the country, public men, political creeds and religious denomi nations has been a sacred priuciple and leading aim." That the editors have been faithful to the promises of this prospectus is evident on examination of the vol umes already issued. When the work in completed it will consist of sixteen double-column octavos of eight hun dred pages each, conaining over thir ty thousand articles and it will be embellished by some five thousand cuts and numerous maps. So inter enting is its style that a New York critic remarks "We have found the continuous reading of it as entertain ing as if it were a romance irom the [ten of a master." We may form some idea of the immense cost attending •ueh a work by the announcement of the publishers that before issuing the first volume they hud expended over three hundred thousand dollars yet the subscription price is very low, the publishers depending for their profits upon the Immense sale* which they anticipate. We learn to their credit that many of our citizens are already on the list of subscribers. This work should be in every family where knowledge Is estimated at its true value where it is found we nmy be sure that intelli gence will prevail, even though the children have in other reapects, very few advantages for obtaining an edu oution. The little ones, lirst attracted by the illustrations, soon beeotne ea ger readers of what is Uneful, and are thus kept without trouble from the sensational aud demoralizing litera ture of the day while the adult mem bers of a family will find iu it contin ual entertainment, and instruction. As an exchunge truly remarks: "Thousands of dollars may be expend ed in books selected with care, yet our libraries will bo searched iu vain for Information on many topics of inter est but in this Cyclopaedia the whole domain of knowledge has been HO sys tematized that nothing has been over looked, and that treatises on every subject can bo turned to as readily as the words iu a dictionary. The work might be appropriately called "The People's Library," bringing as it does to the people in every farm house an opportunity to place themselves on an equality in intelligence with those who have access to such public librar ies as are found only iu our large cities, and iu connection with sive institutions of learning."

The city was full of people from the coun try, and they all, or nearly all, bought largely. Forsythe & Brinkhoff are threaten ed with another lawsuit, for selling whiskey to "Nelsie" Dearlnger, who Is now at the Insane Asylum at Mt. Pleasant. Mrs. Dearinger, we under stand, will lay her damages at $7,000. Rev. L. A. I)unn, Prof. Loughridge, Thos. Ryan, H. G. Curtis and others were absent last week attending the Baptist Convention at Cedar Rapids. Several of the boys were out on a spree last Saturday evening, and we noticed several of them lying around loose late at night, feeling up for the ground. Mr. and Mrs. Welch, who were absent in Indiana aud Illinois fnr the last six weeks visiting friends, return ed last Saturday morning. Brown's new egg house is ready for the roof. We hear talk of a monthly paper being started here by the College stu dents. Large quantities of potatoes are com ing into market. There was a perfect rush all last week, and prices remain ed about the same—40 to 60 ceuts a bushel. Several buyers were here from Kansas. Snow & Huber's big elevator is nearly enclosed. There is considerable competition here in the piano and organ trade. Three films have opened out in the busiuess'in the last two weeks. Many of the fi»ri®ers berealouts are nearly through cribbing their corn crop. They all report u good yield. Miss Rosa Clutter, aged about 18 years, died yesterday evening of ty phoid fever. Mr. I. G. Nelson, a former citizen of Pella, but who hae been a resident of Kansas for a year or more, returned to Pella last Friday. Albert Tully, engineer, and Lewis Weane, his fireman, both citizens of this place, and who were badly burn ed iu the recent terrible railroad acci dent at Comstoaks, are getting along as well as could be expected. The Railroad Company offer a reward of $1,000 for the arrest and conviction of the person or persons who opened the switch causing the accident. The two wagon factories here em ploy fifty men and turn out twenty two wagons a week. They are both behind with their orders. KATS KLNKBY. RID ROCK. 1874. The farmers hereabout are busy gathering their corn, and realize a full average c«op. Johu Wikle gathered 00 bushels per aero from a field of 40 acres. Mrs. Morrison, late of Monroe, was buried here yesterday by the aid of the Odd Fellows' Order. Her bus ban was away on a visit to Prince Ed ward's Island, on the Atlantic coast and of course the mournftd rites were conducted without his presence. Mrs. Morrison's father, Mr. Jaeob Collins, was buried just six weeks since, aud only three members survive to mourn the loss of a father and an only sister. The funeral was attended by a large concourso of people, who seemed to share the grief of the bereaved and give them consoling sympathy. C. OTLKY. OCTOHEH22, 1874 The people of this neighborhood luive just been treated to a little ro mance in real life that may do to re late briefly About a month ago a couple mad* their appearance here, hailing from the State of Indiana, assuming to have just ceased to be widower aud widow, aud become man and wife, and were on a honeymoon tour. In this reltv tion the}' enjoyed themselves muchly in visiting about among numerous dear friends, till their happiness was suddenly and ruthlessly terminated by the receipt of news from the IIoos ler State stating that the couple were not married that the gentleman had a wife there, and ordering his urrest. But, somt-how, before the order could be properly attended to, the pair got a hiut of it and vanished for parts un known early last Sunday morning, much to the gratification of those up on whom they had perpetrated the de ception.
