The Six Pleas for New Dress.

Tittlewinks wants another dress, and
her lord protests. Now observe how
she manages she approaches with
Plea No. l-namely, THE Persua-
size Plea.-Oh, how hard lie has to
fight, She tells him how she loves
him--smoothes his hair, calls him a
king-asks if he has the heart to deny
her. If he says he has, she proceeds
to
Plea No. Or THE Destitute Plea.
She informs him of the fact that she
has nothing to wear, and says man is
a brute who would not give his wife
something to wear. That she is not
fit to be seen. In vain he says that
beauty unadorned is adorned the
most" She asks if he can be so mean
as to refuse her. If he says Eyes," she
proceeds to-
Plea No. 3-or THE Pouting Plea.
This consists more of gesture than
speech. She sits at the table with her
little nose turned mp, and her little
eyes turned down. She eats little,
till he gets to business,) signs often.
and walks about the house like bad
tempered ghost: She speaks only to
say "she knew it would be So" and sit
served her just right" Should he dare
say it did" she proceeds to-
Plea No. 4-or The Property Plea.
She politely asks for the little money
she had when she was married. Ger
tsinly she can do what she wishes with
her own. In fact, she had no proper
ty when they we're married. All her
worldly goods consisted of few worst
eds and knitting pins; but these knit
ting-pins she always pokes in his eyes,
unless she conquers him before she gets
to plea No. 4. Should this fail, she
proceeds to
Plea No. 5-or The Comparative
Plea.-All her departed lovers are
made to pass before the unhappy man,
and he is compared with them. If she
had married Mr.. Snooks,-i e.. the
coachman-she would have had a
livery. If she had married MIR. Swiz-
zle, she would have lived in style on
Broad street. II she had marrled-in
fact, anybody but her husband-she
would have been treated like human
being. He, perhaps, becomes a little
angry, and snggests if she had married
Adam she would have dressed like
Eve! But as she had married him.
she must wear what he can give her.
This rouses her temper, and she comes

To-day, the Democrats Of Daven-

the County Convention, which takes
place on the 18th inst. We hope to
zee this Convention we'll attended. II
has now become the sacred duty of
every Democrat in this township to
shake off their apathy, and arouse to
action. Past elections have proven
conclusively, that there is in the Dem
ocratic ranks Of Davenport township
much greater degree of strength than
was supposed on the eve of the con
test, and as the time is rapidly adj
vancing when we shall be called to
meet the enemy in the field once more,
let every Democrat consider it his
bounden duty as well as his sacred
privilege, to attend all Democratic
meetings, and to aoork and act at all
times, for the advancement of the cause
and principles Of true Democracy
aud to the end that we may defeat the
opposition forces.

Chs Gazette Wtnccs. Afraid OF Judge
Mitchollss Nomination.

Our venerable friend OF the Gazette
is sensitive. 1t is the easiest thing in
the world to determine that he is sorely
afflicted with the idea that there is a
strong probability that the State Demo
cratic Convention will put in nomina-
ton for the office of Govetnor that
staunch aud reliable Demonstration.
Gilbert G. Il. Mitchell. There could
be no nomination made that would
have such an overwhelming effect for
the better in the Democratic party OF
Iowa, and the Gazette being fully
aware Of the fact, bowls hideously over
it. This is not to be wondered at in
the least, for in connection with his
nomination, the Black Republican
party sees nothing but ignominious de-
feat in the Fall campaign.
In reply to the inquiry OF the Gazette
as to the style of Mr.. Mitchell's De-
mocracy, we would say that he is a
"dyed-in-the- WOOL Democrat and as
the question is not to arise in the State
Convention as to the sympathies
Of the Candidates with reference
to the Administration or Douglas
policy, we do not deem it important
that We should furnish our cotempora-
~ with any information on that point.
40 We have said before, because Mr.,
Mitchell was once Wing, it is nc
reason in the world that he is not now
consistent and thorough Democrat
Doss our ueighbor rememember that
in the Presidential campaign of SO i,
supported aRepublican nominee who q
few months before had been a Democra,
and yet the Republicanism of John c,
Fremont was not questioned by that
paper; and does not the Senior of the
Gazette likewise see that although he
was formerly a rabid Wing, he was
elected President of a Know NOTHING
Lodge, even IN this city; and it wa.
considered by all that he made . mos,
capital Knos0 Nothing, and it has NOT
been recorded yet that be has deter;o.
rated in the least, or grown at all we.l
