growing tendency in this age to appropriate the most
expressive words ofother languages, and AFTER while
to incorporate them into our own thus the word Ce-

with Mr.. Spalding's great Hea3ache remedy, but it
wiz soon be used in more general way, and the word
Cephalic will become as common as Electrotype and

been worn away by common usage until they seem

TWENTY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS SAvED.-Mr. Spald-
ing has sold two millions of bottles of his celebrated
Prepared Glue and it is estimated that each bottle
saves at least ten dollars worth of broken furniture,
thus making an aggregate of twenty millions OF dol
lars reclaimed from total loss by this valuable inven-
ton. Having made his Glue a household word, he
now proposes to do the world still greater service
by curing all the aching heads with his Cephalic Pills,
and if they are as good as his Glue, Headaches will
soon vanish away like snow in July.

exy- Over excitement, and the mental care and
anxiety incident to close attention to business or
study, are among the numerous causes of Nervous
Headache, The disordered state of mind and body
incident to this distressing complaint is q fatal blow
to all energy and ambition. Sufferers by this disor-
der can always obtain speedy relief from these dis
tressing attacks by using one of the Cephalic Pills
whenever the symptoms appear. It quiets the over
tasked brain, and sOothes the strained and Jarring
nerves, and relaxes the tension of the stomach which
always accompanies and aggravates the disordered
condition of the brain.

This road was opened to Marengo, thirty
miles west Of Iowa City, several weeks since,
md is proving q great advantage to Central
Iowa, as it brings their products 80 much
nearer to market and connects another coun~
ty by rail with the Mississippi and the Lakes.
The work is steadily progressing westward,
and it is expected that twelve miles more,
reaching the cast line Of Powcshiek County,
will be finished within the next four weeks.
Brooklyn, Elk miles further west, will be
reached by the 1st Of January, mixing in all
103 miles Of the road that will be finished west
ofthe Mississippi.
As soon rs election is over and the excite
ment consequent thereon has passed away, tho
public will turn their attention to business
matters, aud the completion Of such internal
improvements as arc demanded by the ucccs-
sities Of commerce. By the first Of January
one-thlrd Of tho road between the Mississippi
and the Missouri River will be finished, and It
can scarcely DO doubted, considering The loca-
ton Of tho line and the valuable lands which 1t
received from Congress to aid in Its construc-
ton, that this road offers one Of the very best
Investments to capitalists which the whole
country affords. Once finished to tho Nilsson
ri, It will command IN immense business. The
Pixies Peak trade alone will 60 very far to
sustain It, while the traffic it would commsnd
from Kansas and from the Upper Missouri
would make 1t one Of the very best paying

Preparatory to the meeting Of Congress, the
Capital is being renovated aud put in its usual
order. Since The lust session, several changes
have been made Of no little importance. The
seats and desks have been returned to the
House hall, and the benches, Of course, re-
moved. This is in accordance with the rc5o-
luton passed at the last session. The desk Of
the Government reporters, in front Of the
Clerks desk, has been remodelcd, SO that those
untiring gentlemen may have more roon- The

The Memphis ARpcal, 4 leading and lntluen-
tial paper, says:
"Thcrc is vast deal Of nonsense exploded
about the effects Of Lincolnss election. In the

westcrnmost settlement in tho slnve States
could not with any safety to slave property,
be dispensed with. 4 postalsystcm would
have 10 be organized and sustained at ru-
inous cost, In fact, all the machinery Of
the present government with much that is
additional and costly, would Of necessity be
put into operation ut once. NoY ftce tzade
is the dogma By which all Southern politi-
clans swear: 1nthcir Coniederacy nothing
but Direct Taxation would square with
their notions It would bc 1csortcd TO for
payment Of II how much2 Tho Gov
ernment now costs eighty millions per an
mum. The sharc Of the South, admit that
all tho Slavc States seccdc, would be twen-
ty-fiyc to thirty millions, at least, 10 say
nothing Of the public debt. Here is an nv
craee Of two millions TO each State TO 10
raised by tax for national purposes alone,
exclusive Of city, county and State taxes,
which are by no means light The slave
holders, whose property now hears no
share of the public burden, would ut once
be assessed. Men like Wade Hampton,
who owned 4, 600 negroes, would be called
upon for the modest sum Of fifty thousand
dollars per annum each, to keepthc new gov
ernmcnt a-going. Not they alone, but slave
holders great and small would |,e pcrcmp-
torily asked TO respond 10 The tax,gathers
demands, II slaves were declared
exempt white men would rebel
as they arc now ready 10 do in at least two
States Of the South If n system Of duties
upon importswcre adopted, the result would
not be changed. The men who own tho
chattel. personal would still be obliged 10
carry the load, because they would con
sumo the bulk of the dutiab1e articles
brought in. So, in whatever way turned,
the result Of dissolution Of the Union and
the setting up Of 4 independent govern
mcnt, would entail new and extraordinary
taxes from which the shareholders almost
wholly escape.
The sum Of the matter is this: in the
Union and under present revenue regula-
tons, Slavery is pet and favored institu-
| ton that is well cared for and well pro-
| tected, without penny Of cost to itself
Out Of the Union, it would be compelled to
! sta1d on its own legs, pay its OWL taxes
| and protect itself The shrewd men Of the
South see and know all this thing; and
when alarmists Of the North bather about
driving them out of the Union in which
they occupy SO warm and cosy place,
they talk nonsense for which there is no
excuse. Out Of the Union, Slavery would
eat itself up in :half century, or dwindlc
down to That last stage Of barbarism in
which the master would not be distinguish
able from his slave
