The Douglas Revolution.

The movement in favor of Judge Doug
las has already assumed the proportion
fla popular Revolution. 1t is no Ion
,er question of party. 1t is no lon
ger in the hands of politicians: but the
people have taken hold of it, and are
pushing it forward with vigor and i'm
pulse that will break down all party
lines. ..s
The times are suspicious for such a
evolution. The Republican party dem
'ralised by its Congressional and State
Legislative corruptions, and torn by in
ternal jealousies and rivalries, has been
compelled to abandon it's Chief, and to
AXE up an unknown and undeserving
leader; and is at a d,adpause as to what
It shall do next. The conviction that
even this sacrifice will not save it, and
That in no event can Lincoln be elected,
paralyses it. "
The American party at the North
has no principle left to appeal to, bur
the love of all Amerlcans for the Union
ofthe States They know the Repu1
cans on one side, the secessionists on
the other, to be the enemies of tie Un-
ion. Their instincts, their interests.
their judgments point to D,ugles as the
nan otthe crisis. Radical Democrats
who went over to Fremont in 1856; and
Republicans wearied with Slavery agi-
tation, and who see in the theory ofnon
intervention the only way of getting
rid of it, are gathering to the standard
0. Douglas.
No delusion is greater than that in
regard to the comparative strength of
parties in 1856. Take, for instance;
States which, castinga majority of the
Northern vote, may be regarded as pow
erful enough to decide the question of
the Presidency.

MILWAUKEE TRADE.

Two years since, this town did
not trade a dollar with Milwaukee
and this section of Iowa, but very
little. At that time the writer OF
this article prevailed upon one of
our merchants 10 send an order for
goods to Milwaukee, which order
was so promptly, and SO satistacto-
rily filled that the trade Of this
town alone now, amounts to many
thousands of dollars with that
city, besides a trade of gigantic
proportions that has grown up in
Northern Iowa generally. And
what has Milwaukee done, loca-
ted and connected as she is with
Northern Iowa by her magnificent
system of railroads to build up, re-
Ceive and retain our trade! Our
books shcw that in that time all
her princely merchants combined,
all her forwarding, and commits.

cisely the sum or nine dollars in
this section of Iowa, in adverti-

1t seems to us that here is an
''irrepressible conflict" of senti.
ment. In 1860, Mr.. V. endorses
the principle of the right Of the
people to adopt, to alter and
amend their States constitution as
their wants and necessities shall
to them dictate. In 1858, he de.
mands that the Government shall
outlaw the institution of slavery
in the u. S., and then leave the
question Of its adoption or rejec

on. 1t seems to us, that if the de.
mand of Mr.. V. is acquiesced in.
and slavery everywhere prohibi.
ted, because the constitution of
any State or Territory recogni-
ling its existence is not republican
in form, that then Republicanism
is as we have always held unadul-
terated abolitionism though dis

USFoRruNATE.-A mother and child, on Z
street between Third and Fourth, were yes
terday severely burned. in the following
manner:
The child, about two or three years of
age, was lying on the bed, over which was a
mosquito bar. 1t is supposed that one of the
other children lit a match, as children some-
times do, and stuck it into the bed. At any
rate, the bed was observed to be in flames
The mother rushed forward to rescue the
child, and was badly burned about the face,
hands and legs. She nevertheless took the
child from the bed and extinguished the fire
on its clothing, Pals of water were thrown
upon the bed and the flames put out The
child is burnt on the abdomen to crisp, and
also oD the face. 1t is not probable it will
recover. The woman will get well. She is
the wife OF man named Adam Werener
who appears to be an honest, hard working
man. The accident occurred between 8 and
9 o'clock in the morning. 1t was this occur
renee which called out the engines, but the
fire did not spread beyond the bed. Drs.
Mcguire and Talbot were called to see the
patients.

A BosToN LINE OF CALIFORNIA STEAMSHIPS.
The Boston Commercial Bulletin, having
seen its hopes realized in the establishment
of a line Of steamships to Charleston, and a
prospect Of another line TO New Orleans, is
turning its attention to the Pacific, and ad-
vocates the immediate putting on of line
between Boston and San Francisco. 1t says
Ten years ago it was sneeringly remarked
that Boston could not support line of South
ern steamers. That sneering remark, and the
folly of not having steamers to Southern
ports, has cost Boston more than though sh
had sunk the price of four steamers every
year in making the attempt. Boston is smi
larly situated with regard to California a
the present time-if anything, in NOR,
! palpable light.

ception, Of the growing importance of our

grasp the reality of California and the whole

1860 we have come to learn the folly of our
want of foresight In 1850, what must be our
reflections in 1870, if, with all this expert
ence, we hug the same delusion2

and the returns made out by the 18th OF

be possible for either of the agents in Nevada
county to complete the work as it should be
done in the time specified in their instruc-

PROBABLE CAUSE OF SOME CASES OF INSANITY.
Laurence Souren, native of Ireland, and
aged about 80 years, has been taken to the
Insane Asylum from Columbia. The Times
says: "He has ever been a strictly temper
ate and steady young man. His friends at
tribute his insanity to his having been work
ing under the rays of the sun, during the
present season. without any protection from
their effects. We are of the opinion that
many cases of insanity that occur, in this
State, proceed from this reckless exposure to
the more than tropical heat of the sun. We
are informed that there are four more per-
sons confined in Sonora, in similar condi-
ton, waiting to be taken to the Asylum at
Stockton.

A MIsER DEAD.-A miser uamed Grishon
Twitchell died recently at Milford, Mass. A
writer in the Boston Journal thus speaks of
him
Though man of considerable wealth, own
ing one Of the finest and most valuable farms
in Milford. he persisted in living in a state OF
the most abject poverty. On the announce
ment of his death, the overseers of the poor
took immediate steps to secure his estate for
lis legitimate heirs. They found in his hovel
a large amount of silver, deposited in a pine
box, nicely adjusted in layers of dollars,
halves, quarters, and smaller coins. They
also found bag in which there was a heavy
amount Of gold. The specie was taken to the
Milford Bank for safe keeping, Nearly the
last words uttered by the expiring miser
were to request neighbor who stood by him
to leave the room, for fear he would steal the
money. His wife abandoned him many years
ago, ard recently, for a stipulated sum, gave
bonds that she would make no claim upon
any property he possessed.
