The Superintendent of Public In
struction, publishes in the Capital Re
porter "a Circular to the Democracy
of Iowa." and therein by way Of ex
culpating himself from the charges OF
defalcati6n which have been heaped
upon him from almost every quarter,
attempts to shift the responsibility Of
his illegal acts from his own shoulders
to those Of Governor Grimes, and Mar
tin L. Morris, our worthy State Treas
urer. In all of his bare-faced charges
the Doctor is upheld by the Reporter
and other journals of his party.
The Governor, in letter to the Pres
ident Of the Senate, corrects the mis-
statements of the Superintendent and
convicts him out of his own mouth.
Unlike the Doctors Circular, the Let
ter of the Governor is mastery pro-
duction, dispassionate, courteous and
dignified in all it's bearings. A full ex-
position of his transactions with the
Superintendent in connection with the
Five per cent. due to the State from
the sale of Public Lands within it's
borders, is given, and copies of their
entire correspondence on the same sub
ject, furnished. 1t in short fairly COR
ners the DR.. and presents in bold relief
his official shortcomings, not to say
robberies.- Vintom Eagle.

TlxE's CHANGEs.-The inventors of steam
power, railroads and machinery have, during
the century, changed the means and courses Of
living, while the discoveries Of science have
done even more for the advancement of hui
man happiness and the amelioration of hu-
man suffering. Our forefathers when they
were sick, drank their bitter drugs that did
not cure, and bowed them down under diseases
that are now easily broken. They tried crude
roots and herbs which failed them. Now sci
entific research has discovered that this pecu-
liar property of one root and that of another
was required. 1t is through this light and
on this principle, that DR.. Aver has COM
pounded his two great remedies Cherry Pee
toral and Cathartic Pills. He has concentra-
ted the curative virtues of our best vegetable
remedies. The result shows their origin, and
their results are known in this community.
Mark the difference to o patient, in the lapse
of fifty years. Then he swallowed his bitter
pill in yain-now the sick man takes his su-
CARED pill. or honied drop, and soon is well
again. These adaptations Of the sciences,
which bear upon the sssurity or the comforts
of human life are after all the tangible points
of their vantage TO man. Without them it
matters little how much may be discovered, or
what we know, since it is unavailable to our
necessities and use. Eastsrn Literary Review.

SINGERS
SEWING MACHINES.

YyHESE celebrated machines are in practical
Il and profitable use in all parts of the CIV
ilized world mall the various trades and in
sewing every sort of fabric, either of cloth or
leather, they have been fully tried and ap-
proved. Sewing machines of other manuf;ic-
turers often fail to work, but Singer machines
always operate perfectly, being strong, durable
and complete in continuance and workman
ship. A perfect sewing machine kept employed
affords a clear profit of 81 900 year; but an
imperfect one is a cause of constant vexation
and loss. The entire reliability of our ma
chimes is one great reason of their unparalleled
popularity. Machines for family sewing of
frail and delicate construction, are recon-
mended by other manufacturers. Such ma
chimes are made to catch the eye, not to per
form substantial work. The truth is that fam
lily sewing machines ought to be stronger than
any other, because they 60 into less skillful
hands than when sold to manufacturers and
are used for q greater variety Of work The
machines which have proved the best for all
other purposes must be best for family use,
and they are Singers. The speed Of our ma
chimes has lately been doubled, consequently
no other can compare with them in quantity Of
work.
fS-New machines of the latest improved
style will be exchanged on liberal terms for
old sewing machines of our own make, or for
operative machines Of other manufacturers
Local agents wanted to sell our machines. 81
N. B.-Penons desiring full information
about sewing machines can obtain it by apply
