Never Deceive a child.

Never promise him what you do not
intend to perform. Never forget to do for
him as you promised. "Train him up in
the way he should go, and when he is old,
he will not depart from it." Do not par
ents forget the importance Of this precept
in respect to deception? Do they not de-
ceive their children without thought that
they are thus teaching them to deceived
The Importance Of truth without art or
deception in the management of children
is illustrated by the incident narrated in
the following paragraph from New York
paper:
1.-TWO small boys met on the sidewalk,
and after some minutes spent in CONVEX
-sation, the one remarked to the other, that
some little thing might be obtained, ii he
could obtain a few cents from his parents.
But" but said the other ~ do not want
any money to obtain it, for my mother told
me l should have it at such time.''-
"Poh!" said the first, ''my mother has
promised me 80 great many times and l
did not get it, and do not think you will
either.s "What!" said the other. 80
yes, replied the first, tour mother only
tells us so to get rid Of us, and | think it
will be SO with yours" "What! my
mother tell lie! / would sooner believe
the Bible tells lies than my mother!" ex-
claimed the little fellow, and immeIrltely
left his companion with countenance
filled with indignation. What lesson
should this afford to parents, guardians,
and those who have the charge Of youth"

PROSPECTUS Tf4&
oFTHE
IOWA CAPITAL REPORTER

THE subscribers, having purchased the above nam
ed establis hment and put it in entire dress,
will in future conduct it jointly Editors and Pro-
pretsrs, under the firm of PALMER & PAUL. s
The REPORTER will, as heretofore, be mainly de-
voted to the PRONUNCIATION of sound Democratic doc
trines and the advocacy of corresponding measures
of State and National policy. These measures
though egitimaely resulting from never changing,
immutablc princiI les-we believe should still be, as
they ever have been, PROGRESSIVE in their charac-
ter; having for their ultimate object the equalization
both of the benefits and burthens Of government
we can conceive no means more likely to hasten
the accomplishment of these grand objects, than
through vigorous support of the enlightened Just
and liberal, Free Trade, Hard-money and other lead
ing measures Of policy advocated by the great DEM
ocratic party AS long our party shall adhere to
and enforce these, and principles and measures SIM
liar in their character and tendency, long do we
expect to stand by it, and no longer. Furthermore,
consider ourselves pledged to the support of in
dividual members of our party-brought out in con-
formiy to its established customs, for stations of
honor or proft-only long as they truly reflect its
principles and show disposition to carry out its
measures and conform to its established usages.
The vital importance to party, especially at the
present crisis, of straight forward, fearless and
efficient champion of its cause and exponent of its
principles at the seat of State government must
are persuaded, be too well understood and appreci-
ated, to require any thing more than bare alluson
to it on this occasion. We now on he eve of
State and Presidential election, in both of which
the Democracy of Iowa will, besides deciding upon
various other subjects Of vast Importance to
people, be called upon to stand by and support the
government in the measures which it has so vigor-
ously adopted and successfully carried into execu-
ton, for sustaining the honor of the country against
its enemies abroad, aided and comforted by ingori-
Gus, lily disguised and traitrous partzans at home.
We believe that we shah not be disappointed in
our expectations that the warm hearted Democracy
of Iowa will evncc their appreciation of the consid
erations here presented, by their efficient aid and
support. as ..... -
While the above win be the leading objects for
which we shall labor, the REPORTER will devote it
SELF with what of energy its conductors bring to
the task, to the advocacy of such measures of i'm
provement in our young and fourishng Iowa. as, in
their opinions shall promise to be most conducive to

intend it shall become the standard work.
In the course OF lis papIc aiion it will contain
an Introduction to the Natural system OF Botany,
thorough Treatise on the interesting and impor-
ant branch of Vegetable Physiology, Notices on
Focil Botany and descriptions, both acientfc and

Unlike scores of Ephemeral and deleterious nos

intrinsic merit alone secured the most elevated
