are better than usual. Tho yield of wheat
in the counties in this vicinity has been unu
sually large, owing both to its good quali
ty, and tho
large surface sown. Wo have no
way of approximating to anything like the
amount of wheat raised in this vicinity, but
we should judge from the amount sown,
and tho very general statement of an unu
sual yield, that enough has been raised on
tho "Slope" for home consumption, and a
iitlo to spare to those who may concludo to
•nitch their tents amongst us."
The condition and prospects of thc corn
I n the whole, we think wo have reason
to indulge in the assertion, that Western
Iowa will be able to harvest more than will
ho sufficient for its own support, ami we
now congratulate oursolve upon favorable
projects, for pronng our independence of
nil oilier States for supplying us with the
•toff of life. We raise our own.
In tliis connection, we would call the at
tention of farmers, and dealers, to thc fact,
that there is in this section of Iowa, mills
sufficient fur the manufacture of all tho
Hour, that is needed here, and in thc coun
ties north of us. It has been the habit here
tofore, to a great extent, to ship the wheat
raised here, and ill tlie counties surrounding,
points below, and as a natural conse
quence, the llour consumed has been brought
to this market, from St. Louis, and even
from some points in Illinois. One reason
for this proceeding, was the lack of manu
facturing facilities. That vacuum, has been,
in a measure, filled. We have now in this
city, a fine steam mill, capablo of turning
out, upon an average, one hundred barrels
of flour per day. There aro several othor
mills in this vicinity, fully prepared to turn
out largo quantities of flour. There is one
at (ilenwood, one on the Nishnabottanv, 2.5
Biile-i distant from this place, one on the
iiottoin, near this city, and one on l'igeon
•reek, just above Cresent City. Wc should
think that thes mills were sufficient for thc
manufacture of all the grain raised iu this
fcctioa. Policy would dictate that those
feistitutiona should be sustained and encour-

Cheap Felicity.
The Nebraska City Aeics, in cotnmertffng
upon a recent marriage in that place, sota
forth the terms upon which all marriages
toay be "felicitudinous." As thc remarks
•lay havo moro than a local application, we
reproduce them, for thc benefit of those in
terested. It says that ".Marriage in the
Territories, marriage in thc States, marriage
on Earth anil marriage iu Heaven, by the
'Common testimony and universal consent of
••ditors is pronounced a divine institation.
All marriages are not felicitudinous. This
is owing partly to an unhappy concatena
tion of circumstances, but chiefly to the
fact that the printers are not always ro
mcmbered. The above happy pair remem
bered tho printers they will always be hap
py. Should there be any more marriages
in tho samo family, or in othor families,
they aWo can bo happy on the same easy,
cheap and convenient terms."
Lands on the Big Hlonx*
The Editor of the Sioux City Eagle, has
lately taken a jaunt up tho Big Sioux Kiver,
and says that the land on cither side of the
River, is hard to beat, and that when tho
Indian titlo is extinguished, there will be a
grand rusk for "claims" thereabouts.—
These lands are at present occupied by the
Indians, although, on the Iowa side, several

The United States steamship Niagara,
Susquehanna, and Her Majesty's screw
steamship, Agememnon entered the Sound
this P. M., on their return from their un
successful attempt to lay the telegraph oo
ble.
On board the Niagara they report that at
the time of tho severance, the wind was
southerly there was some sea, and the ves
sel was going from three to four knots, and
the cable paying out from five to six and
sometimes seven kuots. As the quantity of
slack thus expended was greater than ex
pected at starting, and diore than could be
afforded, to retard the strain, was therefore
increased to a pressure
of 3,000 pounds, and
the cable broke. The extra expenditure of
slack commenced on Monday evening, when
a strong and heavy swell prevailed, and a
powerful under current was experienced.—
l'his current forced the wire from the ship
atrA considerable angle when the break was
applied with increased power, the stern of
the Niagara was down in tho trough of the
sea, ana the extra strain created by her
rising was the immediate cause of the cables
parting.
The general opinion is that tho season is
too far anvanced for another effort now.—
The Niagara is considered too heavy for the
purpose. It is stated that the wheels ceased
to revolve when the pressuc was applied on
Tuesday morning.
The Republican* in California.
The following letter of acceptance, was
transmitted by telegraph to the Republican
Convention of California, by Edward
Stanley, upon receiving intelligence of
his nomination for the office of Governor.
San Francisco, July 0,1857.
Soon after I learned the Lord's Prayer
and the Ten Commandments, I was taught
that every man had duties to discharge to
his country, in peace as well as in war.—
California Is a part of our country. Among
the first to advocate her claims to admission
in the Union, I shall be the last to say she
has no claims on me.
If you cannot prevail, as I hope you may,
on a better man to be your standard-bearer,
and can trust a North* Carolinian upon faith
iu his past life and expressed opinions, my
name is at your service.
I know thc honest men and patriots who
make this nomination will do their country
no harm. Yours, &c.,
Edward Stanley.
Democrats of "High Henry," on Ralph P. Lowe.
The Mt. Pleasant Home Journal, in no
ticing tho proceedings of the Democratic
Club of that place, speaks as follows:
Mr. Dean regarded the adoption of the
new Consitution as a Republican triumph:
he intimated pretty plainly, that he Should
continue to hold as enemies of the
Democratic party, all who voted for it, and
that he would reject as a standard bearer of
his party, any one who. was disposed to fa
vor that miserable fabrication. He said
emphatically, that if he was compelled to
vote for a friend of this republican bant
ling, he preferred to take him from the Ke- i
publican party, &c., and in that case he
knew of no man in the State more worthy of I
thc honor, than Judge Lowe. Ho paid a

Tho Post says: It is to be hoped by all
buyers and consumers, that the extraordi
nary prices for sugar will decliue soon to
something like living rates. It is generally
conceded that nothing hut the exertions anil
combinations of speculators keep the prices
where they now are. There is a largo
quantity now in New York, whiuh, being
held on to, in view of the apparently scant
crop this year in Cuba and Louisiana, will
cause tho nrticle to become a clog iu the
market. These samo speculators have
commanded'tho market about as long as
they can. Instead of tho crop in Cuba and
Louisiana, this year falling below tbat of
last, it will, in (^uba, equal if liot exceed,
and in Louisiana it will exceed by far the
crop of last year. In Louisiana last year,
the crop was only 5,000 hogsheads, and this
year it will amount to 40(1,000 hogsheads.
Buyers are not anxious to buy, and sellers,
are, notwithstanding their tenacity for
prices, anxious to sell.
It may be sometime yet before wo shall
feel tho good effects of this turn of affairs,
but they will assuredly come. If what we
have stated be true, in six months sugar can
bo bought, any quantity of it, for eight
cents a pound. It is a matter of congratu
lation that our western merchants have kept
pretty clear of tho article, buying only whut
was necessary for present need.
C«al in Mills County.
Wc examined a specimen of coal whioh was
found in the bluffs opposite St Mary. It had
the character of canned coal but did'not bum
so brightly. Ilow it may turn out when pur
sued tlecp remains to be seen. Wo belicvo
but are not certain that the coal is found on
Mrs. Hepner's property. It will be indeed
of incalculable use and thcreforo of value
because it will be tho only coal mino as far
as wo know in Mills county.
The coal used by the blacksmiths in Glen
wood is brought some thirty miles off in
wagons from a neighboring county and is
purchased at (30 cts. per bushel. The want
of coal in this increasing city is a serious
evil and we long for the time when we
shall be enabled to announce to our citizens
the certain discover of so all important au
article.— Ulemcood Times

what is doing t+restrain the Stoax from tho
repetition el tMr hostilities, aad I tterefffra
trasmit to you a letter from the head qBar
ters of the army, which shows tbat General
Scott entertains the proper feeling if he doe*
not find it possible to apply tbe proper rem
edy. After the letter, to which this is a re*
ply, I wrote, urging that Fort Kearney on
the Platte, should be continued ara garri
son. I have heard that it is to bo abandoned,
and it seems to mo unfortunate that the posts
nearest the Sioux should be thus reduced in
number and force. 1 have been for some
time on the Western slope of our State, and
tho settlements of Iowa and Minnesota that
are rapidly extending up the Big Sioux and
up the Missouri, are retarded because of the
hostility of the Sioux and the feebleness of
our defenses which stand between them and
the Sioux.
A proper effort may induce a draft from
some of thc troops now in Kansas, where
tbey are certainly of less consequenoo to the
public safety. IVlany of our citizens wore
murdered last winter in cold blood by the
Sioux, and others were carried away captivo
and most inhumanly treated. A 'military
movement to avenge the outrages at Spirit
Lake, would be quite as important in my es
timation as the expedition against tho Spir
itual wives. I hope thc press will speak out
on this subject. Respectfully voars,

Head Quarters of the Arxy,
West Point, N. Y. Aug. 3, '57.
S»—I have the honor to acknowledged
the reccipt of your letter of the 17th of Ju
ly, relative to the apprehension you enter
tain of Indian disturbances on the frontiers
of Iowa and Minnesota, and urging the pres
ence of more troops in that quarter. I sub
mitted it to the General-in-chief, and, by
his direction have forwarded it to Washing
ton for the consideration of tho War De
partment.
You will have seen before (his that the
General has sent four companies of artillery
—armed as Infantry—to Minnesota to assist
in guarding against any disturbances from
the Sioux. To do this, he has left Forts
Bradv and Muckinax without a garrison, and
the harbors of Boston and New York with
but one company each!!
Tho expedition to Utah has drawn off
more than that part of the late increase to
the army which was to have been assigned
to the country this side of thc Rocky Moun
tains, and it is now left with less than it had
before tho addition of the four regiments.

We take no delight in personal misfortunes.
We are are sorry that Mr. Thompson
has failed, yet we are compiled to chronicle
the fact that he has "gone under." Through
his Bank-Note Reporter he has been far
months decrying the West, nnd dwelling lu
gubriously on the great crash that was to
como unon this fair portion of the conti
nent. lie has labored diligently to bring
about that crash. Perhaps he had in
terested motives in doing so. But tho West
stands ereet, never so independent and well
to-do as she is to-day. The crisis has come
upon .Mr. Thompson himself, instead of tho
prolific and thriving West. He thought he
saw the West inextricably involved in specu
lation. lie could see nothing but debt and
disaster when he turned his eyes toward thc
setting sun. Perhaps ho might have been
honest in his idea and his effort. Bat we
fear ho was not impartial, for he too wu ft
speculator, and thcre night havo been a
purpose, a personal motive, in his labors and
prophecies* Probably, after all, the light
which came to his eyes was reflected from
nig own entangled circumntflflees instead of
the field of Western finance and industry—
