A pleasant time to you, gentlemen. IT don't make any difference who is the next inan or where he does business, the fact of the matter is, the best place to get your clothing for summer is at Sam Perry's.

CttownFD.—The stock shipping business on the M. &. M. road is taxing the facilities of the company to the utmost. Every day a long train of cars come in from the west, and at this time over thirty car loads are awaiting shipment at Grinuell. The passenger business, also, continues to increase—all the coaches being kept in motion. TITE AUTSAt..—The work of carrying up the walls of the Government Arsenal on the Island, progresses slowly. The late prevailing high winds, preventing the con tractor front floating stone down from the quarries at LeClaire, taken in connection with the scarcity of help keeps the work back. Two or three courses only of mason ry have been laid. It is thought, however, that the walls will be carried up and the building enclosed liefore next winter. .SCOTT Couvrr.—The action of the Board of Supervisors of Scott county, in coming promptly up to the mark and voting a sum sufficient to pay a bounty of $50 to each man who enlists in the service of his coun try for the term of one hundred days, is just what is required in this emergency.— Men will not enlist without bounties. Why they will not is not pertinent. In order to raise the quote of the county is this liand somc appropriation made, and now, withia ten days, we expect to see our county's quota filled to the briin, whatever that num ber may be. We understand that recruit ing has received great impetus skw* the action of the Board. ME0HANH 4 fltjr Fire lasaraaee Ca, OF HARTFORD, CONN.

Messrs. Clark and Wing came to and took their seats. Mr. Mead offered the following which was adopted: That a committee of five be ap­ pointed by the chair for the purjiose of tak ing into consideration the subject of an ap propriation by this Hoard to aid iu the en listment of the one hundred days' men, and to report at the afternoon session.

Clark, Mead and Boss, to wait 011 Adjutant General Ba­ ker, and ascertain, if possible, Scott Coun ty's quota of the ten regiments of one htm-. Ired days' men to be furnished under the late call of Gov. Stone. On motion adjourned. The committee last above mentioned waited upon lien. Baker last evening, and ascertained that the quota of this county would not be more than three hundred and fift}- men. I'nd.T the resolution appropriating the money to pity the bonnties, a bounty can only be paid to a sufficient number to fill the quota, and no more. The expression of the ISoard on this point was positive, and the committee appointed to carry the reso lution into effect will seo that only three hundred and fifty men receive the bounty offered. Recruiting officers who get their men mustered in into service first will make a sure thing of getting the bounty. This should be a strong incentive to strong exer tions in recruiting.

The accommodation train leaves Daven port for Iowa City and Muscatine at 2.15 III. The accommodation train from Grin nell and Washington arrives at Davenport at 4.45 p. m. Freiglit leaves for the West at 8.30 a. NEW ARRANGEMENT.—New arrangements have been made with regared to opening and closing the draw of the railroad bridge which will hardly give satisfaction to pre destrians. The rule reads thus: "Thedraw bridge will, in all cases, dur ing navigation, be kept ojirn. Conductors and Engineers w"«t tindestand this rule ful ly. The draw will be cl««el for the pas sage of trains, and opened immediately after their passage." Thia is reversing the order of things.— Hitherto the draw has been opened for the the passage of boats, and closed immediate ly after, which gave the public ttti opportu nity to pass over freely. Vnder the pres ent rule there can be no passage on foot un less you are at the draw when closed for the passage of a train. It will also be closed on Sunday all day, as no trains are running on that day. This rule, we presume, is made at the instance of the authorities on the Is Jnnd to keep people from strolling about the island as much as possible. There arv plenty of other places to take a quiet Walk besides going to the Island.
