DONKLLAS's MAP.—This map, "show ing the liailroailBuf Keokuk, with their lead* ing connections/' we alluded to on geveral occasions while it was in course oi prepara tion. Man of our citiseus examined it before it was lithographed, and it wan in conse quence of the general approbation and desire, that it was prepared for publication. W«i think an examination cannot fail to show that it is calculated greatly to serve the interests of the citv, if used as it might !*, and we hope those among us who possesses public spirit enough to pay a trifle for the purpose of prumotinp the interest* of the community with which their own interest* and pride of feeling are identified, will patronize it liber ally. It is sold at a very small price,—en tirely ioaTsmall for such a publication,—and may be procured of Mr. DonHlan, at the St. Charles Hotel. We are glad to learn that the City Council took several hundred copies, and one of the Railroad companies also took a liberal number. Tas E. M.
