LETTERS FROM THE WEST,
Couscu Dr.arre, lowa. •
October 28d, 113415.,
Dr Art:Waienuaa proposed in
my first letter to conclude my story of
Council Bluffs in letter No. 2. 1 doff has
ten to make good that proposition. One of
the most remarkable features in. the history
of this city, is the finit, that, from • its
earliest settlement until 'the' present time,
the greater bulk of the bUsiness, commkr
dal and meehenical, has been, and still is
conducted and enceessfully carkied on by
young men.. And *e And by looking over
the business list of the city, young, active
and energetic men engaged in almost every
vocation, and this fact alone speaks volumes
for the future proetvrity of our City of
the Bluffs." lac •havo no i'4lc'a or 'droned
hero; everybody are busy, and every body
no matter what Weir calling, or nituation
may be, 'are perfectly satisfied with and
contented with that situation. You may
travel from one corner of the oily to the
other, from centre to suburbs, and question
every—man, and you will not hoar a dispar
eging,word !Token of the pada ; but on
the other hand you will hear the universal .
opinion of every one that Council - Tuffs
is going to ben great inland city," and
1) is opinion fastens itself upon the mind of
the observer nein coining fact, when all e
surrodevling and present circumstances are
taken into consideration.
The country for many Milee around is
well adapted for agricultural purposes.—
The farming lands in many places In this
manly equal the best in the Slate,
having an abundance of timber and run
ning water,. and if the geological surveys
prove as correct in this as they hate in ad
joining counties, coal of a stipeilior quality
will yet be found in abundance- AL pres
ent wood is lbe only fuel made use of, and
thtpeople seem so well satisfied with Its use
that they have never made en effort for any
other fuel, but this does not lesson the fact
that immense coal beds may be found un
derneath the sand and lituestede strtitas of
those neighboring bluffs.
Our markets, at presant;are ktgiter than
usual for this season. Wheat (spring) $l,
15 to $1,20; corn 73 430 cents ; oats, 65
toil) cents ; potatoes, 40 cents ; sweet po-
Catoes, s`2,i)o; green 'apples 53,00 per
-bushel; flour from $5 to $6,75 per sack
of 100 pounds; butter, 50 cents; lard, 23
*lts per potted ; eggs, 21 emits per doi•
zen ; white beaus, $2 to $2,25 per bushel ;
wood, $0 to $7 per cord ; hay s'l per ton ;
and groceries, illy goods and clothing at
about the same prices as in Bellefonte.—
!tents are high—arty ordinary buildings on
Broadli.ny for busit!,esit purposes, will rent
for 111 to $23 per month, according o size
otuflocation; atid dwelling houses, one sto
ry: with three mins, will rent for $8 to $l5,

WHO SHALL BE &WITTED TO DON-
GRESS
The .Constitution of the United States
settles this question clearly enough—and
the President of the United States has also
setteled it, in his own mind—though not a
power to act officially or effectively upon it.
The supreme law of the land requires Con
gress to receive inemtters constitutionally
elected, whi!c 0. 1 6 President+as Jeclareti- 7 -

Smith C.troliiia, that— y t,
"It is the intie - rative duty of thaolerlr. to

Southern States have always been and still

The Coustittition Cf the United
Slates Piescrilies an ilkih for airuiars of
Congress to ' P take, and they cannot be re
quired to take any other oath constitution
by. There may have been some show of
propriety for. exacting this oath [the oath
of 1862] when it was enacted, amidst the
the war between the Southern States and
the United States; but there can be none
now, unless it be for the patron; of milli&

Southern members are present when the"
roll is called by States, they will take a
part in the organization of the House, ante
may vote against the oath being tend..
to the memberp when they are sworn."
This would seem to be clear enough as
to the ireeldenl's idbas - tnid the eMndiitution
