We are happy to record the organization Of this
Society at Iowa City on the 18th inst upon the ba-
ss Of total abstinence, and for the object of sup
pressing entirely the traffic in intoxca ting liquors
~ beverage in this state. The officers OF the So
ciety are: Ex-Gov. Lucas, President; Rev. j. Z.
Holbrook, and Mr. Washburn, v. Presidents; Mr.
Fales, Secretary; Rev. Mr. Hazard and eight others
Elk. Com.
This society proposes to promote its great OBJ
ject by employing lecturers, and by aiming to in
duce the next Legislature to give US 4 stringent
prohibitory law.
At the meeting in which the society was organ
ised, composed OF friends OF Temperance from oil
parts of the state, the draft of bill was discussed,
which the Executive Committee were instructed
to present to the Commissioners who are now re-
wishing the laws. The principal provisions Of this
bill LIST, the abolition of all icence laws; 2nd
regulations for the sale Of sprituous liquors for
mechanical and medicinal purposes; Sd, fines the
vendors Of intoxicating drinks as = beverage $40,
for first offence, $50 for the second, and inicts for
subsequent offences imprisonment; 4th, makes the
vender responsible for damages done by those to
whom he sells, and declares him accessory to all
the crimes they may commit; this is the present
law in Wisconsin;) 9Th, submits the question Of
sale or sno sale' to the people At the April cleo
ton.
1t Is hoped that the friends Of Temperance thro'.
out the state will advocate the passage Of law Of
this kind. We confess it is high ground; hut We
believe it is right ground. And if Iowa will main
tain it, we feel assured it will add greatly to her
honor and prosrerity.

The Following card appears in the 'Republic,' Of

the editorial department Of the 'Repubiic' in May
last, no longer existing, the undersigned cheerful
y surrcnders TO John q. Sargent, Esq, one Of its
able founders, the future control oflts columns.
oALLEN A. HALL.'
In the Republic, Of the nth, find Mr. Sargent's
address, from which we take the following:
sWe resume our labors at period suspicious to
the hopes OF the wing party. An administration is
in power whose members have always enjoyed in
the highest degree its confidence, its respect, and
its attaC hment.
'sWhile the President is animated with the same
patriotism and integrity which endear the memory
of Gen. Taylor to the hearts Of the people, he has
enjoyed larger experience in civil affairs than
was the lot Of that Chief Magistrate. His Cabinet
advisers are not only familiar with the duties Of
statesmen, but they have been tried in the conflicts
OF party. They sympathisc with the friends and
associates of their old abors, struggles, reverscs
and triumphs. Thsy hail with patriotic JOY the
restoration of tranquility and peace to convulsed
and distracted nation. They look upon the magnif-
icent dominion that extends from the Atlantic to
the Pacifc-from the arctic SHOWS to a region Of
perpetual fowers-governed by the same laws,
blessed BY the same civilization protected by the
same flag; and they feel that to them, under the
People, and under Providence, is entrusted the au-
gust mission Of preserving this dominion unim-
paired.,'

Kate Kearney.

The steamboat Kate Kearney, Capt. Morrison,
collapsed the starboard ue Of her larboard boiler,
while leaving Canton, about ten miles above Quin-
cy, on Thursday last. Four hands were killed and
nine other persons severely scalded, two of whom,
we learn, have since died Of their wounds. The
engineer states ssthat the boat had less steam on
when she blew up, than while running the night
before.' She had been passed by the Monongahe-
Ia, but short time previous TO the explosion, and
though the Captain was not running race, he did
not wish to waste his steam nor to lose any time.
1t is rather unsatisfactory, too, to state that she had
less steam on than she had the night before. Pray
how much had she the night before?

We trust that our citizens are fully awake to the
river opposite this place, to Peoria. From Peoria
that railroad will be extended in few years to La
fyete, Indiana; from the latter place there will be
continued connection by railroad through INDIAN
apolis. with the Ohio river at Madison, which is
now nearly completed. Railroads will also be CON-
pleted in short time, connecting lafayette with
the Lake Erie railroads. and Indianapolis with Co.
lunbus and cleveland, OHIO. These railroads
will have their western termini on the Mississip-
pl river. adjoining Iowa. Of the various points on
the Mississippi river from Quincy to Galena, where
it is likely that railroads will terminate, we think
Burlington entitled to the highest consideration.
At this place the river can be bridged at 40 small
expense a. at any other; and from this point west,
railroad will pass through the farest portion Of the
State, and be constructed at less expense than
on any other route.
Whatever may be said at railroad conventions
and in railroad journals, north and South of this
place, Burlington il destined at no distant day, to
have railroad reaching eastward to the Illinois
and the lakes, and westward to the Missouri.
We have been led into these reflections by See
ing the suhjoined remarks In an exchange paper:
"Rai'ray from Indianapolis to Lafayetie.-n is
sixty-two miles from Indianapolis to Lafayette on
the Wabash. Tbs railway connecting these impor-
tant points is rapidly being completed. From La
fayee to Lebanon, the road 10 nearly ready for the
lron and the short distance remaining to Indianap-
oils has been finally located, and contracts for the
entire work were advertised to be let day or two
since. This is very level and straight line, and
can he constructed at far below the average of such
work IN the country. The Hoosiers are moving on
raat nil ritz
We wish our good people had little Of their ener-
gy and spirit"

thanks from devouth ought to rise with it, and
fly beyond its orb, to that gracious Being who has
so kindly overrued all things for the preservation
and perpetuation Of our liberties and our peace.
eyes, gentlemen, we shall be thankful, indeed,
that you, and l, and all Of us bear a common name
and common character; that are all united
Americans; that we can yet without shame open
the books which record the deeds of our fathers
and can still look upon their graves without re-
morse.'
Mr. Webster's remarks were listened to with
profound attention. and were most enthus las ticay
received. Next, the Hon. Mr. Hilliard of Alabama,
addressed she crowd. He spoke with great ear
nestness and eloquenco, and attributed to Mr. Web
ster's commanding talents, influence and patriot
ism, aprincipal share in producing those happy re-
suits which would fill the heart of the nation with
JOY and gratitude.
The enthusiastic feeling which pervaded this n,i-
merous assemblage ofonr fellow citizens was only
exceeded by the good order which prevailed during
the whole of this spontaneous public demonstra-
ton. We never saw, on PENNSYLVANIA avenue, so
much good order and regularity united with so
much enthusiasm and patriotic Joy.

Convention Of the Friends Of the Sabbath.
This convention was held at Iowa City on the 18th
inst Hon. Lincoln Clark of Dubuque, Pres. Hon.
r. Lucas, Rev. G. c. Beaman Of Montro se, and DR.
Crosthwait Of Iowa City, Vice Presidents, and Mr.
Fales and Rev. E. B. Turner, Secretaries. Flo
quent and learned addresses in relation to the ori
gin. design, change and proper observance of the
Sabbath were delivered BY Prof. Ripley of Iowa
College, Davenport, Rev. Messrs Harris OF MT
Pleasant, Archibald Of Davenport, and Gorban and
Holbrook OF Dubuque. A diversity of opinion ex-
listed in the convention in relation to the strctnes
with which the day ought to be observed, and as to
the expedency OF legislative enacsments in its fa
vor. While a return to Judaism was deprecated,
it was at the same time urged that obligations
to devote the Lords day to acts of Christian wor-
ship are in the highest degree imperative, and it
was agreed by all that whatever is inconsistent
with the most faithful religious use of the day ought
conscientiously to be avoided.
Resolutions were adopted affirming the right of
every man to the rest Of the Sabbath and declaring
the loading and unloading Of boats, travelling, Wis
ting the Post Office, and attention to worldly BUSH
ness, violations of the divine law. The desecra-
tion Of the day BY our Judges, lawyers and others
IN attending the courts was deplored, and a COM
mitee appointed to request the legislature to so
range the sitting ofthe different courts as to obvi
ate the apparent necessity which is now thought
by some to exist for this dissertation.
The friends Of the Sabbath were recommended
to circulate the Sabbath Manuel, and to hold dis.
trict conventions in different parts Of the State.
Committee was appointed to call another State Con.
ventioR in 1851.
II was gratifying to witness SO many Christians
of different denominations uniting their coun sells
and efforts in favor Of the better observance of the
LORDS day. Such meetings, If they did nothing
more, would do great good by pr"mo,ing the ac-
quaintance of Christians, and extending lberality
and friendship. But We doubt not they will have
powerful influence in promoting the honor both of
the Sabboth and Of the Sabbo,h's Lord.
