A i: K Tin' ('liii"iLr|) Tt ii'iuii hot speak enthusiastically of two Son ators from Arkansas. Serstood KICE,the particularly, •hows too much contempt for tho "illus trious body"' of which lio has suddenly become a a member. The Tribune pays McPonnld, whose term expires in 1871, is a good looking man of ahnut thirty seven earn, stocky built, with full face, bhu-k air aiul moustache. Kice, who holds till l87 t, is about forty, rather above the me dium height, with I in lit brown hair and shift whiskers, lie showed his ouality by Jprawiin in the most uncoutu fashion •n a lounge while the debate took place, evidently to show that he was at ease, and fiilly able to bear his honors. Messrs. Kice and McPonald took seats far down on tho left of the Vice President, back of Messrs. l)rak« and Tipton, and to the right of Messrs. llamsey and Chandler. The St. Paul Pioneer says, "Kico is ft '^Ihrpet-bapger from Minnesota before he flltmo to this State ho was a swindler." We think Rico 1ms just found his level. Tho chances for the Congressional nom Hhlatinn in this l'istrict just now ap- Eity fcar to be pretty well mixed. The Charles Intt.lliijtnrir conies out in a clever or- cle in fuvor of Mr. Der rin j, and it is un that that gentleman has the un animous preference in Mitchell county. Winneshiek will present Mr. Cooley. Br ewr is set down for Mr. Ilurke. The Clayton Co. Journal is not averse to tho re-nomination of Mr. Allison. The Independence Bulletin "pitches into'' to J. K. Graves and favors Allison. The Nash ua Post and Lansing Mirror are set down for Mr. Graves. Fayette county, so far is mum, but probably for a 43d paraller. .« Somebody jyill bo nominated at West Union, and we'll bet tho lemonade that either Mr. Dcering or Col.

It is worthy «i remark that fifty cents would cover all expenses for repairs during that time. The lightness of draft, du rability of rake, and the facility with which a person may size the bundles and lower the cut to catch lodged grain, are advantages which it has over many oth r'Reapers.
