New Aovta-risEMEHTs. We call at
tention to the new advertisements in to
day's paper, as follows:
Commissioner' Notice of a new road
to be located between Dellevue and Piatt
ford. We are glad to see a movement in
this direction, as it will be a great benfit
to the inhabitants of the western part of
ihe county. .
C. II. F. Forbes, Civil Engineer, and
Surveyor, St. Marys, Iowa. Mr. F. was
connected with railroads in the east, and
from numerous testimonials that he has,
we have reason to believe that he is a
competent workman. .
T. B. Lemon receives Fontenelle Cur
rency for $15,000 worth of Lots and one
iraprovtd Farm.
Mr. McCord offers Lumber and Sash
for sale, Fontenelle Currency taken in
payment.
Samuel Snyder, Sr., near the printing

Nathaniel G. Denton, who operates the
new Steam Ferry Boat, will accommodate

Boats. The EstidEAitT arrived Sept.
20, and discharged passengers and a
quantity of freight. Papers received.
The St. Louis and Sioux City Packet,
Omaha, Cupt. A. Wineland, and J. Jew
ett Wilcox, Clerk, arrived at our Levee

freight. The Omaha is a good boat, and

The AtoKta Ciiilds cam up Sept. 22,
and landed passengers and freight at our

The Weathe. The weather during
the latter part of last week and the fore
part of this, was extremely cold for Sep
tember, with indications of frost. Mon
day morpiog, before sun rise, the Ther
mometer indicated 8 dregrees above freez
ing. Summer clothing went into retire
ment, while fires end thick coats reigned
supreme. Since, it has been growing
warmer, and we are now having delight
ful autumn . weather, genial skies and
gorgeous sun sets. , i
Plums. Readers,' have you been a
pluming? If not, pile into the big wag
on, men, women, and little ones, with big
basksts, little baskets and buckets, and go
out and have a jolly lime. It is real fun
to pluck those Urge and blushing beauties
that grow in spontaneous profusion in al
most every thicket, but it produces a more
agreeable sensation to kiss their ruby
cheeks. We have been pluming, and
brought home a basket of as large and
delicious lot of plums, as has been our
good fortune to obtain.
Tnr Caors. Corn and potatoes are
Iqoking well, and if Jack Frost will de
Jay his coming for two weeks longer, the
farmers will reap the benefit of long and
patient toil, as Jack will then be too late
for mischief. Present indications are now
fr.vorable for a late frost. '
Since the above was in type, a friend
informs us, who has made extensive in
quiry, that all the Corn grown on old
ground is now out of the reach of frost,
but the sod Corn is not yet matured. We
apprehend no danger, however, from frost.
The following notice was posted by
the Cashier of the Fontenelle Bank, on
the door of that institution, last Monday
morning :
NoTier.- In consequence of several
recent failures in the east, where we have
lame Interests, this Bank will be closed
for the present. There will be no loss to
depositors or to bill holders, b it for the
present we are compelled to close.
JOHN. J. TOWN, Cashier.
Whereupon, some wag wrote under-1
main, the following verse: , , .,
This Bank is good, though closed tight ;
Have patience all, for all is rieflit I

Who has got the money.
Platte Vallt Bars. From all wo

Our community were startled on Mon

Fontenelle Bank of this place had closed,
but we are pleased to say they have paid
since all their depositors in specia; and we
opine if people will not run frantic and
mad with excitement, all will be right.
It is the protesting of several heavy drafts
this Bank had made ' upon the People's

a temporary suspension

The Chinese Sugar Cake. A pen-

of the Post a sample of very good brandy,
made from the syrup of the new sugar
plant, the Sorgho, or Chinese sugar-cane.
He snys it costs about thirty cents per gal

from $1 to $2 per gallon, according to
quality. In a note he says:
The manufacture of spirit from the sorg
ho may now be carried on by our farmers
in the winter season, when there is no oth
er occupation for them, at the rate of a

alcohol for camphene and other purposes.
The quantity of alcohol now used for the
purposes of illumination alone, to say noth
ing of varnishes, chloroform and medici
nal extracts, is enormous, and was begin
ning to have a serious effect on the price
of bread, owing to the wholesale destruc
tion of the cereals required to produce it.
Now, however, we have found a substi
tute, which, besides supplying syrup and
alcohol, will also yield from the same crop
a large amount of forag) and grain for
