Rixawav.—A farmer's team—the fore
wheels of a double wagon and a span of
horses—made a spirited dash down 4th
street this morning. The Hying steeds were
followed at a considerable distance by the
hind wheels, attached to a dray. Whether
the dvav has succeeded in overtaking the
runaways is not known. As the race is not
to the swift, we shall bet on the dray.
Di I'hez & Green's Minstrels.—The pub
lic will be glad to hear that this splendid
Minstrel troupe has made arrangements to
furnish our citizens with another of their
select, ever-pleasing entertainments. It
Will be remembered that this troupe was
here last season and the excellence of their
performances has not been forgotten. The
inimitable humorist, Charley Reynolds, is
with this troupe, also Mons. Bidcaux, the
eharmnig solo vocalist. Mr. Samuel Pond,
the energetic and favorite agent of this
troupe, arrived here last evening, and is
perfecting arrangements for the occasion.
They intend to open here one week from
next Monday, and give two entertainments.
Of coarse, everybody who appreciates choice
,o minstrelsy will make arrangements to'gto
theIU a
hearty welcome.

boat.
Bay your hats and caps at Farrand's.-

Fahmkhr will find a larger and better se

Prices alwavs low.
Sou ut'M.—Mr. Bard, Sup't of the Daven
port Sorghm Co.'s Farm, informs us that lie
has planted J}ij acre- of .sorghum, and
sown about acress of oats. The "farm"
looks finely and the crop flourishing.
llot sEKEEiT.Rs will find it much to the
interest to examine the choice stock oC fain
!y groceries kept lv Parks A. Ilosmer, south
east corner of Brady ami 1th streets. They
keep no pojr goods and never umL tlwin
high. Give them a trial:
Five Residence.---An elegnnt brick resi
dence, to be occuped by Bishop Lee, and to
cost some six or .-even thousand dollars, is
going up oil the south-west corner of the
east half of the College grounds. Mr. John
Chaniion has the contract for doing the
carpenter work.
Tiie ki su continues at Perry'«. His
goods attract gentleman in both civil and
military life. The reason is that he keeps
a superior stock, makes splendid lits and is
in no hurry to get rich. His prices are al
ways the very lowest. Call and see oppo
site the Post Office.
Another Circis.—Dan Castcllo's far
famed Circus is on its way to this city and
proposes to open out here on Saturday,
June 1th. The great Northwestern show
man, Levi J. North, is connected with this
establishment, and he never traveled with
anything that_was not worth seeing
Lower Ykt.—The liver continues to fell
at this point, and the prospect is that unless
there is some change for the better the
through boats will be obliged to lay up.—
The time is not known, we believe, when
the river was so low and navigation so un
promising at this time of year as at the pre
sent. Scarcely any rafts are coming down.
New Grocery Store.—Special attention
is directed to the advertisement of Julius
Schreiber's new and well stocked grocery
store, corner Brady antl Front streets. He
has an excellent stock, comprising groceries
of the best quality, tobaccos and cigars,
wines and liquors, all of which he offers
low and warrants I o please. Give hint a
call, and satisfy yourselves.

has l»een conducted in this city, the gentle
men engaged in this business lutve formed
a determination to organize themselves into
a Board of Trade. This movement is not,
as some might infer, for the purpose of
forming a combination to k'-ep down the
prices of grain to a figure disproportionate
with those of Chicago and eastern markets,
but rather to fix the price so tliat dealers,
instead of doing business for the sake of
having something to do— regardless of profit
or loss, and consequently running up prices
on each other and virtually picking each
others pockets, can see a small margin in all
the grain they handle, and be the better
prepared, in case of emergency, to weather
any unforeseen downward turn in the mar
ket.
Pursuant to call, the grain buyers and
commission merchant of our city met last
evening at the office of E. C. Duncan, and
organized by calling J.R.Graham to the chair
and appointing E. C. Duncan Secretary.
The object of the meeting was stated nnd
a liberal discussion of the question of form
ing a Hoard ol'Tradc revealed a feeling unan
imously favoring the plan.
On motion a committee of three, consist
ing of Teichmann & Co., Darlington k Co.,
and E. C. Duncan, was appointed to draft
a Constitution and By Laws for the govern
ment of the organization, to be reported at
the next meeting.
A committee of three, consisting of Au
gust StcWeii, E. Hickman, (of Hickman A
Morrison,) and Mr. Clareiibach, (of Teich
mann & Co.,) wa» also appointed, whose
duty it was made to meet every morning at
the office of the Secretary and arrange a
schedule of prices to govern buyers during
that day.
It is also made the duty cf the committee
on by-laws to wait upon each of the grain
buyers and commission merchants of this
city to secure, if possible, their co-operation
in the proposed organization.
V resolution was adopted restricting gram
buying limits to Western Avenue on the
west, Sixth street, on the North, and the
Rail Road Bridge on the east.
The meeting adjourned to m«t upon the
:!1 of the Secretary.
The necessity of such an organization has
long been felt in our city. In all other
grain markets of this size, and even in those
of less pretentions, Hoards of Triujc hitvc
been found indispcns.ble. It is not the de
gn or intention of this Board to so com
bine and reduce the price of gnua us to
drive the trade from Davenport. Thai
would be worse tliRii folly. Our dry goods
merchants, grocers, etc., need entertain no
fears on that score. The grain merchants
of our city are among our first citizens and
deeply interested in the prosperity of all
blanches of trade, and wuult! do nothing
knowingly to injure any legitimate business.
They simply ask to live, and to live must
have a margin on what they handle. To
gain this they must govern this market by
the Chicago markct&nd not buy at Imp-haz
ard anv longer. In carrying out their plans
we wish them every success.
Fuo.m Idaho.—We are peri ait ted to copy
the following items regarding the gold pros
pects in Idaho, from a letter written by our
former fellow-citizen James K. Rhodes, to
his family here, dated Bannock Citv, April
'.'th, Ni-i
I went out into the mountain last win
ter, prospecting, got storm tied, staid there
till spring, and have just returned to Ban
nock. We came near perishing. The wea
ther was intensely cold and stormy. We
got out of flour, and lived on deer meat two
months, without salt or pepper. It was a
hard case. I have labored hard lure. I
took some claims, dug four miles of ditches,
alter whit u the claim proved worthless. If
can make enough this summer to take me
back to California I shall go there next fall.
I think can do better there for it costs all
a man can make to keep him here. Flour
is 40 cents per pound, potatoes and onions
the same, and everything else proportionate
ly high."
From this it would seem that Mr. Rhodes
is not particularly pleased with the pros
pects there.
A letter received in this city from J. A.
Let laire, states that he and his party ar
rived at Bannock safely, and that the min
ing prospect is excellent.
Report ok the Noutii-Westkb*
