NEWSPAPERS IN IowA.-There are
now u newspapers in Iowa-l0 demo-
cratic, 8 wing, | abolition, ! agricultural,
and one sectarian. OF the political por-
ton OF the press of the State we may say
with truth, that they are generally con-
Quoted with talents which would do hon
Or to any State in the Union, and entities
'aeir conductors to a better support than
we fear some Of them get. However,
this is not SO much through lack of pro-

people, as it is the result of the embarrass-
ing circumstances under which SO many
Of the pioneers Of new country always
