BAYAID TAYLOR'S TRIBuTE To H1r.

BAYAED TAYLoR's TRIBUTE TO Hum
BoLDT.-In his Encyclopedia of Mod
crn Travel" Mr.. Taylor speaks as
follows of Baron Humboldt: cit is
his highest merit that with worldly
circumstances so favorable, he did not
give way to the charms and indulgen-
ccs Of his aristocratic position, that he
did not fall into the cgotism of high
birth, nor the pride of ldleness, but in
all periods Of his life followed the true
impulses Of his nature, and made him.
self the sclf-sacrificing servant Of sci
cncc for the good Of mankind. Re-
jecting all the comforts which he in
hcrited, and the distinguished society:
into which he was thrown, he chcerfully
sacrificed his property, and subjected
himself to the greatest dangers and
privations in his cndeavors to investi-
gate the phenomena of nature, and OBJ
tain a knowledge Of the laws which,
govern the world"
THE RIVER Po.-From the fellow
ing cription it would appear that
the Po beats the Mississippi "out of
sight" in the way Of levecs
The Po presents a very singular
spectacle-the vegetable earth and the
sand brought down by the torrents
which come from the mountains con-
stantly fill up its bed and thus threat
en- the surrounding country with inun-
dation. In order to guard against
that danger, the people on the banks
have everywhere raised cmbankments,
which are increased as the river rises,
so that in some places the waters of
the Po run as high as the ncighbor-
ing steeples. 1t is everywhere border
ed by lateral canals, and the water
which filters through the embankments.
renders the country very near marshy.
The importance Of this river for the
belligerent armies may be readily un-
derstood,
@FoRTUNE's CHANGES. - Professor
Parsons, in his interesting memoirs Of
LIS latneI, says:
My father used to speak of one of
his friends, { a merchant of Neybury--
port. J who often said, Z have prayed
to the Lord to make me rich, and be-
leve l have prayed too hard, for |
think he means to droun me out
The same man said, at my fathers ia
ble, Il I threw shingle in the water
as The tide turned out, and laid a dol
lar on it, | believe that the next Aeod-
tide would bring it back with ten more"
He was then thought to be exceedingly
rich but, not many years afterwards,
he died bankrupt.

Efac Democratic Nominations

Here is the ticket selected by the sham
Democratic Convention, at Desmoincs, last
week, to be beaten by the Republican nomi-
nces, in October next:
For Goeernor-A. c. Dodge, of Burlington.
Lit. Gov.-L. W. Babbitt, of Council Bluffs.
Supreme Jatdges-T. s. Wilson, of Dubuque ;
Chas. Mason, of Burl' gton
G. G. Cole, of Desmoines.
The nomination for Governor is just as we
predicted-a Dodge. The only strong point
presented by the distinguished Augustus
Caesar for the leadership of his party at this
time consists in the fact that, owing to his
absence in Spain, the public does not know
where he stands on the political issues of the
day, or even whether he has an opinion at all.
Nor will they know it. The policy of the
party is to say nothing, and endeavor to get
the votes of the people by deception and fraud
The platform adopted is without point Or
purpose. 1t pretends to affirm the National
Democratic Platform of 1856 in regard to the
right of the inhabitants of a Territory to pro-
hibit or adopt slavery, as they choose, but at
the same time acquiesces in the monstrous
doctrine promulged from the Z. S. Supreme
Bench, that slavery exists under the Consti-
tuition in all the Territories In short, it is
throughout contradictory, unmcaning
"string of glittcrinS gcneraitics.'

TIE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. OF MSKossUTI.- -
In letter to the editor of the Tincs, NJ.
Kossuth complains Of a leading article, and
proceeds to say:
"Thc purport of my argument is this: If
England abstains from taking part in this
war, the war will remain restricted to the
Austrian dominions and to the Italian penn-
sula; if, on the contrary England interferes,
the war will become a general European one,
because Germany will not plunge into the
war if told she will not be supported by Eng,
land and in this case Russia, too, will remain
neutral; but if England should either directly
support Austria or assist Germany in sup
porting her, then Russia, too, will step in,
but on the opposite side-she will support
France. So that if the present war assumes
general European proportions, it will be
entirely the work of Enslands intervention" "

The Republican State CenvcR-
ton.

STEAMER LAKE Cry, Northern Line,
June 24th 1879.
MR. ED,ToE II send you a printed copy
Of the proceedings of the Republican Con
vcntion, held at Des Moincs on the 22d inst.
1t was unquestionably the largest and most
enthusiastic convention ever held in the
Territory or State of Iowa. The Chamber of
the House of Representatives being found
too small for the accommodation of the
delegates the Convention removed to "Sher-
man Hail." arnom which seats comfortably
nine hundred persons. The Hall was not
only erfcct jam, but the stairs-nay and
the surroundings of the building were
occupied by an immense listening crowd
When it was announced from the window
to tho vast concoursc of people upon the
street that the Convention had decrced that
in October next KIRKwoor should "go it
with RHs(cM!" The shout that rose upon
the night air seemed to make the spacious
| Hall reel and vibrate to its foundation.
But enough. have only time to say that
dispatch messenger from Washington with
instructions to the Democratic Convention
arrived on the morning Of the dsy that their
| Convention was to meet. Rumor was busy
as to the particulars, and this much has
leaked out: Dodge has the promise of the
slave States to be brought before the
Charlest n Convention provided he can
secure the Legislature in October, SO rs to
bring to Washington Democratic Senator
upon whom the Save power could depend.
There appeared to bca determination among
the Know Nothing wing of the Democratic
members of the Convention to endorse lhc
letter Of Gen. Cass upon the subject of pro
lection abroad to naturalized ci izcns, and
all other acts Of .bc a Administration After
the nomination on cur side Of Rusch, their
denunciation of German ma uralizrd citizens
was bitter in the extreme. LAKE CITY.
