' Council Bluffs, N. Tm ) September 29th, 1856. J R. W. Fubn-as, Esq.: - ' Deab Sib: Council Bluffs is still ad vancing in impr6vemer,ts and population at . a very healthy rate. The grading of Broadway, from Madison street westerly, towards the Missouri, has certainly added much to the beauty and convenience of the city. The city authorities are opening the streets to tneir proper width, by moving the buildings back on the line, thereby, I believe, making Broad- way one hundred leer, instead oi thai narrow contracted cow-path, as heretofore. I noticed in my round that the Palmer Block is nearly ready for the finish; and when com- pietea, win aaa mucn u me creun oi me pru- prietor for his building enterprise. The Pa cific House is to undergo an enlargement of just double its already extensive dimentions, by S. S. Bayless, its original proprietor. But it is nseless to undertake to recount the mar.y landsome buildings which are on the stocks; but let it be sufficient to say they are legion. But hold: friend Fubjtas, I believe you iave never yet ascended the Big Muddy as high as this Kanyon City, otherwise, the town in the hollow. It is located on a small brook termed in this country Ri- J,OUv" and A O J I at its intersection with the Missouri-Valley. The town was originally settled as a mormon settlement, and built up entirely within the Kanyon of this "gentle, murmuring Lousy," Its peaks and bluffs towering high on either side, and at a distance have the appearance of an almost perpendicular precipice. In the spring and summer seasons of the year, the greeu mantle of those lofty peaks bursts upon the vision of tho distant beholder, as one grand picture, soothing the mind of the weary trav eler whilst he gazes with wonder and aston ishment upon the irregularity of their surface. The scenery, for miles, as witnessed from the summit of some of those lofty pinacles, is more picturesque and captivating to the true lover of Nature, than is to ba found at any other point, save the bluffy regions of the old ML souri. From those points may be seen the loca tiou of old Fort Calhoun; the flourishing town of Florence; the unrivalled City of Omaha, with its twelve hundred inhabitants; the sub merged town of Trader's Point; the villago of Bellevue formerly Omaha Mission; the town of St Mary; and the whereabouts of the town of Plattsmoutb, which is not behind the rest in enterprise, according to the opportunitie offered; Again, turning the eves toward tho northeast, the beautiful site of Crescent City may be pointed out to the beholder, and not less than half a dozen ferry points may aUo be sccn. . But I started out to tell you of what had transpired since I last wrote you, in the twin sisters Council Bluffs and Omaha. , . Hon. A. Hall, the representative in Con- i gress of the southern portion of Iowa, and Col. Cobb, of Alabama, spoke here last even- ing, to a largo concourse of gentlemen of all parties, much to the edification of the compa- ny; and to-day went to Omaha City, and from there their course will be southerly. n :., Business is livelv herd, and I should think the mercbauts were adding a handsome pet ceutage to their capital regularly.

Look out fob Him, For the benefit of the Publishers, and also the public, we pub lish the following Notice from Leonard Scott & Co., Publishers of Blackwood's Magazine, and the Westminister, Edinburgh, London Quarterly and North British Reviews.' Will our Editorial friends caution their rea ders against a man, pretending to be a deaf mute, and forging our name to printed subscrip tion bills, got up by himself, expressly to cheat the public? Wo have no deaf mute in our employ. We have heard from this man's victims chiefly in the Western States, but he will doubtless go wherever he can be most successful in his villany. - We therefore wish to check and expose him sumultaneously, and hence this request from Editors writh whom we exchange. It is not for our benefit, but for that of the public, that we ask the favor, for we learn that this scamp is doing- a large business with -other Publications, as well as our own. He has, in one instance, given the name of (,Bboierick," but all the receipts we have 6een arfl iuiy signed "Leonard Scott & Ca .j even an assumed name as u Tl&XiQ pass him round. L. S. & Co. P. S One of his victims,, writing from - describes him as "short, thick set, back j. sallow complexion, German cast of countetance. WOre spectacles with steel rims, limped considerably, and was well dressed." His deafne.s, &c, is probably feigned. MALL SOTJTES ESTABLISHED IN KE- ESASKA TEEEITORY.

And forgetting man were near it With, its bossomfull of bliss, . Sang a song composed in heaven, In so dark a world as this. As I listened to the music. Music sweet as ever fell 'Pon the ear of human being Fit a demon's rage to quelj j ; Just the sweetest littld creature That Jehovah ever made,- Stepped out 'mong the thickets And ran by me half afraid. From that moment to the present, To the pressnt fullof care, ' I have loved the world more dearly Since such beings wander here. I have read of angels anthems, Till my heart with joy grew wild, But 'twas discord to the Toico Of that little angel child. Nemaha City, Oct. 27, 1856. : Thanksgiving in Missouri. Gov.
