REDUCTION OF POSTAGE TO GKRMANY-The
Washington Constitution says: We are re-
quested to state that an official communica.
ton from the Bremen GOvernment(receiyed
since the publication of the notice in the
Constitution of the 23d inst. states that the
recent reduction of postage at Is cents be-
tween the United States and Frankfort on
the Main, Sake Coburg Gotha, and other
German States. under direction of the Thurn
and Taxis Post Office, applies only to the
correspondence via Bremen and not to the
correspondence sent via Hamburg, a. orig
inally reported.
Postmasters will, therefore, be careful to
collect the reduced rate of Is cents to the
German States referred to only when the let.
ter is to be forwarded, via Bremen, in the
mail.

INFAMOUS CoNFEss1oN.-Redpath,
the English Abolitionist, who has done
the Engineering for the Republicans in
the Kansas matter has Published book
in which his purpose is very frankly
avowed. He says
believed tina: civu ,oar between
the North and South would ultimate in
insurrection, and that Kansas troubles
would probably create a military con-
flict of the sections. Hence left the
South and went to Kansas, and en-
deavored personally, and with my pen,
to precipitate . revolution.
If the honest men whose sympa-
thies were 90 keenly excited in behalf
Of poor Kansas, knew to what extent
such scoundrsls - Redpath were re-
sponsible for the troubles there, they
would abandon the Republican party
in disgust.-AancAester N. II. Demo

Notwithstanding the fiat denial Of
Mr.. Kirkwood while making . psliti.
cal speech in this city few days since
that he is or ever was . member of the
Know Nothing fraternity, we think
there it not any question whatever, but
that bis assertion can be proved total
ly and unqualifedly false. 1t is
charged upon him that he was An &C.
tive member Of that proscriptive par
ty; it is charged that he affiliated
with that party which had for its OBJ.
ject the political death Of every for
eigner; it is charged that Samuel J.
Kirkwood, the present candidate for
Black Republican Governor of Iowa
pledged himself to prescribe those
very German citizens whose votes he is
now 80 anxiously soliciting. These
charges are not only made, but can be
proved, and his statement in this city,
that such was not the case, can be
proved false.
Is this the kind Of man that the
people Of Iowa wish to have placed in
the highest office in their gift I We
think not. He had reason to know
when he asserted that he never was q
Know Nothing, that there we're those
in his audience who had sat with him
At Know Nothing meetings, and could
prove that he was uttering q falsehood.
This proof, we understand, will soon be
forthcoming then we shall see what
sort Of an explanation this gentleman
will have to make to the foreign vo.
tiers Of his party, for being a Know.
Nothing, and to the public q large for
having uttered what he knew to be a
direct falsehOod.

The following extract is from tn,
Muscatine Enquirer:

A"O ioHOwiuB cAtt0Ct - uOIu tuc
Muscatine Enquirer
The name Of Kirkwood alone cannot draw
. crowd. 1t never did, and it never will
At the Court House the other evening we
saw Democratic farmers who had come l5
or 20 miles to hear Gen. Dodge. The re,
publicans had limited in their notice Of ap-
pointments that he would be present, and
hence the turn out from the country of
Democrats.
1t will be remembered that Kirk
wood made speech to the people Of
Muscatine Of the 25th ult., and by the
above extract it will be seen that he
and his emissaries endeavored to
raise crowd, by lntimating to the
people that that noted man, Gen. A. C.
Dodge would be present also. Kirk
wood knows very we'll that his name
will not draw" and he also knew
that there could be no possibility Of
Gen. Dodges being present on the
day in question, but in order to get
out the masses, he stoops low enough
to hint in his notices that the old war
horse Of the Iowa Democracy will be
with him. This straw shows which
way the wind blows. But on one
point let the would.be Governor set
his mind at rest; he will soon have
enough Of Gen. Dodge; he will have
him to his hearts content, for already
10 the General ready to take field, and
If Kirkwood don't get his hands full
Of Dodge, then We are much mis-.
taken in our man.

MosoUiToEs.-The Buffalo Advertiser gives
the following recipe TO prevent the bite Of
mosquitoes. and says it is of no use in that
city, but thinks it might be useful in Cleve-
land, Sandusky, Toledo. etc.:
"Take olive oil, one ounce: kreosote,
twenty drops; mix well and anoint the
parts exposed"
In view Of the worthlessness Of this pre-
scription, as protection against the Buffalo
growth Of insects, and the necessity for
some relief the Republic has devised the
following preparation, which it lays before
the Bufialonians - adequate to the emer-
gency:
"Tske asafetida, one ounce; guano. one

MIRTH MEDIcINE.-I know Of
nothing equal to cheerful and even
mirthful conversation, tor restoring the
tone of mind and body, when both
have been overdone. Some great and
good men, on whom very heavy cares
and tolls have been laid, manifest a
constitutional tendency to relax into
mirth when their work is over. Mar
row minds announce their incongruity;
large own Gods goodness in the fact,
and rejoice in the wise provision made
for prolonging useful lives. Mirth, at
ter exhaustive toll, is one of natures
instructive efforts to heal the parts
which has been racked or Bruised
You cannot too sternly reprobate
frivolous life but if the life be earnest
for God or man, with here and there
layer of mirthfulness protruding, a soft
bedding to receive heavy cares which
otherwise would crush the spirit, to
snarl against the sports Of mirth, may
be easy and useless occupation of
small man, who cannot take in at one
view the whole circumference of a
large one.-Arnot's Ills of Proverbs.
