A Beautiful Truth.

Benjamin L. Taylor, the author of
January and June" and one of the ed
itors of the Chicago Journal, never ut
tered more truthful and beautiful senti-
meut, (and he has spoken many than
when he said that "she who has been a
good daughter, loving wife, and an
old fashioned mother, is pretty near ready
for an abundant entrance into the King
dom of Heaven A home without girl
in it. is only half blest; it is an orchard
without blossoms, and spring without
song. a house full of sons is like Leb-
anon with its cedars, but daughters by
the firesides, are like the rose in Shar-

known there were some pure animals in
the country twelve years ago, when the
first volume was published, that we're not
put in it, but these are rare exceptions
and not rules. The more recent volumes
contain the herds of every respectable
breeder in the United States. 1t is an
uLfortuneate fact that there arc not moro
than half dozen copies Of this valuable
work in the State. Every breeder should
have it, and it is absolutely indispensa-
bic to every county society, But, as it
costs FIVE dollars a volume, it is not to be
expected that it will ever be very gener-
ally introduced To supply the want of
this work, therefor, so far as the herds in
Iowa are concerned, it is my purpose to
publish in the next volume of Transac.
tions the pedigree of all the pure, bred cat
tie in the State, of whatever race they
may be, and in the elias; of Short Horns
| will now say once for always that wiU
insert no animal as pure blood, anlsss Il

or is entitled to be there In the other
breeds | am not so well informed, but
will be equally careful to do exact justice
to each animal submitted to my examina-
ton, SO far as am able.
Those who know they have thorough
bred animals will gladly avail themselves
of so general aud so authentic an advsr-
tiscment. Those who have reason to
doubt the purity of the blood Of their
animals, aud still want to pass them rs
such, will treat this circular with silent
indifference, whilst others in the same
position will be glad to be set right il
they are not so now. This circular will
be published in every newspaper in the
State, and every man will have an oppor
tunity to read it, and its contents will
commend themselves so universally to
cattle men that we may, now, put it down
as the rule that any animal net appearing
IN this register will no longer be ranked
as a thorough bred.
This undertaking will impose upon me
very greatly increased amount of labor,
and all that | ask of you is to send for
ward your pedigrces at once, and prompt
ly answer any iutcrrogatories which |
may PROFOUND. La some instances, l
doubt not, Il very considerable corrcspon-
dencc will have to De opened before We
can arrive at the truth satisfactorily
hence the importance Of sending in your
papers without delay, so that ! may be
able to devote such time to this matter
as is not necessarily occupied with other
duties. Yours truly,

An entefprising travelling agent for =

ufactory lately made business visit to a
small town in an adjoining county. Hear.
ing in the village that n man in . remote
part Of the township had lost his wife,
he thought he should go and sec him, and
offer him consolation--a gravestone---on
his usual reasonable terms. He started.
The road was horribly frightful one,
but the agent persevered and finally ar
rived at the bereaved mans house. Be-
reaved mans hired girl told the agent
that the bereaved man was splitting rails
"over in the pastur, shout two miles. 1"
The indefatigable agent hitched his horse
and started for the "rastar." After fall
ing into all manner of mnd holes, scratch
ing himself with brian and tumbling
over decayed logs, theHagcnt at length
found the bercased man. In subdued
voice he asked the man il he lost his
wife. The man said he had. The agent
was very sorry to hear Of it, and symps-
thiscd with the man very deeply in his
affection but death, he said, was an insa.
tiste archer, aud shot down oil of both
high aud low degrees. Informed the man
that "what was his loss was her gain"
and would be glad to sell him grave
stone to mark the spot where the beloved
one slept--marble, or common stone, as
he chose, at prices defying competition.
The beresved man said there was "a little
difficulty in the way" "Havn't you lost
your wifc!" inquired the agent "Why
yes, l have" said the man, "but no
gravestone ain't necessary; you see the
cussed crtter amt dead She's scooted

Douglas
Mr. DougIas goes back to the Senate
let Us see with what prestige derived
from the late canvass In our State and
throughout the North In the last Con-
gressional session, eight or ten members
of the House of Rcpacs csentativcs belong
ing to the Democratic party, voted
against Lccompton in its final shape
These have been called Douglas Demo
crats, though doubtless every man of
them would resent it as an imputation
upon his patriotism, to hint that he vo.
ted as he did, under the influence Of Mr..
Douglas, and not from the promptings Of
bis own independent judgment and con-
yictions.
But we will conccdc these to Mr.
Douglas as his force in the House of
Representatives The elections have
passed over, and these men everywhere
outside our own State, having been repu
dated by the Democracy, have been re-
turneo to Congress mainly by Republican
votes against reGular Democratic nomi-
necs. Mr. Douglas force has received
no accession from the elections. So
much for the House. In the Senate two
Democratic Senators went with Douglas
against Lccompton. Both have been re
pudiated by their respective States. 1t
is vain to deny, however much We may
regret, that California did sustain the ad-
miuistration, against the combined oppo-
sition. And now the people of Michi-
gan repudiate Mr.. Stuart by All emphatic
majority against him in both Houses of
the Legislature While they, of course,
approve his vote on Lecompton, they con-
slider that his political relations-his an
tecelents and his records-render him
untrustworthT.

1t is very rarely indeed that confirm,

their ancient loneliness to juvenile levity
1t is very certain that few men make =
selection from bathrooms or any other
place Of gaiety, and as few are influenced

opinion is that ninety mine hundredths of

find their wives? In the quiet homes Of

Stop that Boy.

A cigar in his mouth, swagger in his
walk, impudsnce in his face, care for
nothingners in his manner. Judging
from his demeanor he is older than his
father, wiser than his teacher, more hon
ored than the mayor of the town. Stop
him--he is going too fast. He don't
know his speed Stop him, ere tobacco
skaters his nerves, ere pride ruins his
character, ere ''the lounger master the
man, ere good ambition and manly
strength give way to low pursuits aud
british aims" Stop all such boys They
are legion--thc shame of their families,
the disgrace of their towns, the sad and
solemn reproach of themselves.
