Go\k to Kt:oKrK.—Col. Culbortron, As

Walker, jVssistnnt Mustering & Disbursing
Officer for Iowa, k it for Keokuk this morn
ing, to open an office there and superintend
the raising and mustering of the hundred
day men in the 1st Congressional District,
which are to rendezvous in that city. Two
more energetic men couid not be found to
have charge of this important work.
Tub Li mhf.k Tkadk.—The yank of our
lumber mills look very lank, owing to the
fact that the low stage of water has prevent
ed bringing down rafts this spring. The
water is rising gradually and in the course
of a week or two our lumber merchants ex
pect to have a full supply, and we trust
they will not be disappointed. The demand
for ail kinds of lumber is very brisk, even
at the very high prices at which dealer# are
obliged to sell it.
Plated Wake.—The richest stock of
goods in this line, anil one which comprises
the greatest variety which for style and ele
gance surpasses anything ever offered for
sale in this market, is kept by Webb, at the
great China store, LeClaire Row. His stock
was bought before the late rise in the gold
market, and will be sold at very reasonable
figures. Also, mirrors and minor plates of
every size, can bo found at no other place
in the city, together with glass-ware jof ev
ery style. Call and examine the stock.
Anotiii.H Yalvabi.e Jv:.KOVI:mhst—A
New Steam Fi.oi ii Mill.—linprovcinetiis of
a substantial character are b^lng made all
through our city. Last winter we noticed
the fact that our friend Kichard Stribling
had purchased of Mr. M. Donahue, the
lllue I trass Flour miil, with a view of re
moving it to this city. This has been done
and now, at the corner of Front street and
Western Avenue, a substantial structure 42
by 70 feet is in process of erection. The
foundations ate of masonry, two feet thick,
and the superstructure of timber. The mill
will contain three run of stone—two for
wheat ea5h 4 feet in diameter,—one for corn
oi feel in diameter. The power is to be a
5u-hor.se power engine, two boilers 20 feet
long, 41 inches in diameter. Directly over
the boilers, and sufficiently elevated to al
low a man to walk erect under it, will be
stationed the water tank, which consists of
a 20 feet boiler, .')fi inches in diameter, with
the Hues taken out This is to contain the
water to supply the boilers, and into the
front end the steam is escaped, which, after
passing the entire length of the tank, pass
es out through a pipe set in the farther end.
This is a valuable improvement. There is
no leakage as in wooden tanks, Escaping
the steam through it keeps the entire vol
ume of water hot, and prevents anything
like freezing in the winter. Even the cold
est night will leave the water yet warm, and
thus greatly facilitate starting up in the
morning. The steam, also, has a tendency
to settle the water in the tank. The feed

r/, Koss, Thompson,
Mr. l.-u'-ir moved to adjourn until one
o'clock p. 111. Lost.
Mr. Davies called Mr. Iletily to the chair,
and in an informal way stated the reasons
why this meeting of the I Joan 1 was called,
the reasons why a l0unty should be offered,
and why the niy essary amount of money
should bo raised by taxation, instead of by
private sob.-cription. lie also alluded to
the sitllerings of soldiers' families in this
city and county, and urged that something
be done in their behalf.
Messrs. Clark and Wing came in and took
their -eats.
r. .Mead offered the followhtg which was
adopted
hntt!rnl, That a committee of five be ap
pointed by the chair for th-- purpose of tak
ing into consideration the subject of :iri*-ap
propriatioii by this Hoard In aid in the en
listment of tiio one hundred days' men, and
to report at the afternoon session.
The chair appointed as such committee
Messrs. Mca I, Hons, Clark, Wing and I'ar

AKTKKNOON M-«STON.
Board all present, excepting Mr. Gates.
Mr. Mead, chairman of the select commit
tee, appointed at the morning session, pre
sented th" following report:
ViV.i.i/*•('/, That an ajiptopriation of $25,
OOn, or so much thereof as may be needed,
be made by t!lis Board for the put pose of
paying the ijuota of Scott county, under
the late call of one hundred days' men, the
stmt of fifty dollars to be paid to each re
cruit, or their families, in equal monthly in
stallments, the first payment to be made at
the da'.c of their mustering info the service
of the United States,
[At the time of going to press no vote
had been taken on the resolution.]
Tiiitr.sinNi Machines.—Our enterprising
fellow townsman M. Donahue, is turning
out
a
large
spring,
tation in tlio country round about. His
machines Rre built upon honor." Kvery
part from the trucks up, are made of the
best material that could be procured, and in
it si vie of workmanship that defies alt com
petition. Mr Donahue found a ready mar
ket for all he made la^l ison, and could
have sold many more if he had had them tu
sell. Every late improvement is attached,
ami no pains is spared to atlorj the farmer
the best machine now offered. Threshers
anil farmers generally should take pains to
acquaint themselves with this machine.
Xr:vi- Opkkatok.—Mr. Smith, the nnfvrtffH'
telegraph operator at this place br the past
year or two, left yesterday for Davenport,
carrying with him the best wishes of all
who know hint.—J/ntmtine Jovnu'l.
Mr. Smith is welcome to and enterprising
city, where we trust his stay will be agree
able. If Mr. Smith wishes to gain imperi
shable fame he tail do so by putting tliia
line in such order that a heavy dew will not
cut off the electric current.
The Frost.—There was a heavy frost
last night throughout this section of coun
try w hich, it is feared, lias resulted in doing
some, considerable damage to the fruit.—
We have c-nvcrscd with several farmers to
day from different parts of the country, and
the general impression is ,that considerable
damage has been done.
