Is Surpassed Ouly by or Truth The Republican last Tuesday published a falsehood without any excuse. It said that tbe Supreme Court refused to approve an appeal bond in tbe case of Coldren vs. Clark, and conveyed the impression that Clark failed to secure a suspension of the powers of the receiver, etc This is wholly untrue.

That theFacitlty are not in Favor of Removing the University to Moiues, Tbe following communication to tbe Register is of local interest: IOWA CITY. Jan, 29--Ed. Register. Your correspondent from this place has twice within a week written anent the proposed removal of the university. He is either uninformed, or has some malicious purpose not easily made out He has stated that there is a feeling here in and out of the university, favorable to removal, and in so saying perverts the facts unpardonably.

I speak with tbe authority of one who knows from actual connection with the parties chiefly mteiested, and as one connected with the university in an humble way, that there is not one of tbe collegiate faculty favorable to removal, none of the law faculty, none of the dental, pharmaceutical, or homoeopathic, and only one in the medical--tbis one, by the way, being a resident of Des Momes. IJ you would have a canvass made of the business men here I am quite sure that tbe same state of facts would be developed. Your correspondent is evidently not in a position to know anything about the matter: it is a piece of amazing effrontery. S. U.
