IOWA CAPITOL REPORTER.

In compliance with the solicitations of numerous
persons in various portions of the Territory the
designed have concluded to establish themselves at
Iowa City in the publication of weekly newspaper
bearing the above title the first number of which will
be issued Immediately upon the meeting of the Le-
gslative Assembly i'll December next.
The political complexion of the paper, it is scarce
ly necessary to say, will be democratic-decidedly
and thoroughly so, but, at the time temperate
iy. To eucidae and sustain the leading principles
Of the great republican party generally understood
and acknowledged throughout the Union, will be the
constant effort Of the undersigned nor will they,
under any circumstances, suffer themselves to be d.
verted from the course here indicated by entering
into discussion of ae,u hobbies, false issues, or
visionary projects of utility, come from what quarter
they may While the Reporter will give to the mea-
snres and men of the democratic party firm and
jealous support it will be the purpose of the ed
itors to establish for it character for fairness They
doubt not but that such course will extend the in
uence of their paper, and add strength to the good
cause they support.
Especial pains will be taken, during the sitting of
the Legislature to lay before the public through the
medium of the Reporter full and correct reports of
the proceedings of that body. The columns of
weekly paper would be entirely too circumscribed
to contain full reports of the debates; but weekly
analysis will be given embracing much that will be
satisfactory and instructive.
In other respects the paper will deviate but little
from the generality of news journals published
throughout the country.

DECEIvING CHILDREN.-Dr. 3. was called

him any. He is old enough to be reasoned
with.'
He went to the boy, and after an examina-
ton, said to him, "My little man, you are We
ry sick, and must take some medicine. 1t
will taste badly and make you feel badly for a
little while; and then expect will make you
feel better.''
The doctor prepared the medicine and the
boy took it like man, without any resistance
and he would take from his mother any thing
that the physician had prescribed but would
take nothing else from her. She had so often
deceived him and told him ''it was good, !"
when she gave medicine, that he would not
trust to any thing she said. But he saw at
once that DR.. B. was telling him the truth, and
he trusted him. He knew, when he took the
bitter draught, just what to expect.

A DREAM.

II DARsQeXs
BIT WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT.
had dream-a strange wild dream
Said a dear voice at early light;
And even yer its shadows seem
To linger in my waking sight
Earth green with spring, and fresh win dew
And bright with morn before me stood;
And airs just Weakened softly blew
On the young blossoms ofthe wood.
Birds sang within the sprouting shade,
Bees hummed amid the whispering grass,
And children praitled as they played
Beside the rivulet's dimpling glass.
asst climbed the sun-the flowers were flown;
There PLAYED no children in the glen;
For some were gone and some were grown
To blooming danes and bearded men.
Twas noon, twas summer behold
Wood darkening in the flush Of day,
And that bright rivulet spread and swelled,
A mighty stream, with creek and bay.
And here was love and there was strife,
And mirttful shouts, aud wrathful cries,
And strong men struggling as for life,
With knotted limbs and angry eyes,
Now stopped the sun-the shades grew thin;
The rustling paths were piled with leaves,
And sunburnt groups were gathering in,
From the shorn field, its fruits and sheaves.
The river heaved with suen sounds;
The chilly wind was sad with means,
Black horses passed, and buria! grounds
Grew thick with monumental stones.
Still waned the day; the wind that chased
The jagged clouds grew cher yet;
The woods were stripped, the fields We're waste !;
The winter sun was near its set.
And Of the young, the strong, and fair,
A lonely remnant, gray and weak,
fingered and shivered to the air
Of that bleak shore and water bleak.
All! ogeis drear, and death is cold!
turned to thee, for thou vert near,
And saw thee withered, bowed, and old,
And woke all faint with sudden fear
Twas thus heard the dreamer say,
And babe her clear her cIouded brow;
For thou and |, since childhocd's day,
Have walked in such dream till now.
Watch we its shadows as they fly,
And wait the morn that soon must break,
And mark with calm undertaking eye,
The visions meaning, till we wake

CATALlNI AND GoETHE--AMusING ANEcDoTE.

+ CATALINA AND GOETHE--AMuSING ANECDoTE.
-Catalini was almost entirely uneducated,
even in music. Her want of literary attaln-
ments, joined TO their vivacity in conversation,
sometimes produced ludicrous scenes. When
at the court of Weymar she was placed, at a
dinner party, by the side OF Goethe. as marx
of respect to her from her royal host. The la
dy knew nothing of Goethe; but being struck
by his majestic appearances and the great at
tention of which he was the object, she lnqui-
red of the gentleman on the other side wha'
was his name. :. The celebrated Goethe, MAD
ame,' was the answer. 'sPray on what IN
slrument does he playa" was the next ques-
lion. "He is no performer, Madame' ne Is
the author Of :. Werter." ooh, yes, yes, re-
member said Catalini, and turning TO the
venerable poet, she addressed him, An sif'
what an admirer l am of Wertef!" A low
bow was the acknowledgment for so tiattering
a compliment. 81 never" continued the I've
ly lady, !" never read any thing halfso laugh
able in my life. What a capital farce It 49,
sir!!'' $ Madem," said the poet aghast' "'he
Sorrows of Werter' farce!' so, yes, new.
er was any thing SO exquisitely ridiculous :
rejoined Cataini, laughing heartily as she en-
joyed the remembrance. And 1t turned out
that she had been talking all the while OF a RI
diculous parody off, Wer,er," which had been
performed at one of the minor theatres OF Paris,
and in which the sentimentality OF Goethe's
tale which had been numerically ridicued.-
The poet did not get over his modification the
whole evening; and the fair singers credit at
the court Of Weymar was sadly impaired by
the display of her ignorance OF the " Sorrows
Of Werter. ''-Memoir Of Madame Catalini.
