The 9Th of November.

Before the issue Of another num-
Der of the Intclligcnccr the great po-
litical struggle of the country will
have been determined. We confident
~ predict the triumphant success of
the Republican cause, and the election
of Lincoln & Hamlin as President and
Vice President of the United States.
In Iowa we expect the Republicans
will elect all their candidates by in
creased maioritics over former years.
On Tuesday next we expect every Re-
publican to do his duty-not only to
vote himself, but to sec that his Re-
publican neighbor votes also. Every
vote is wanted and every vote must
be had. The larger the majority the
greater the triumph. Let it go to the
world that Iowa is fndomitab!y the
home of frCCdOm-that the poisoned
slime Of slavery shall never curse its
soil but that art and science and
fruitful industry here find their genial
homes, and that what nature has
planncd man will consummatc in rem
dcring this land of fertile prairics and
beautifully wooded streams a para
disc on earth for himself and those
who come after him.

A Caution.

Nh. llmnEErH:-Is it not your duty,
as Il journalist and conscrvator of the
public welfare, to caution the voters
Of Floyd county against the votes
which the Republican Committee, it is
said, are distributing Ovcr the county,
to which is appended the following:
"!Shall the surctics of Joshua Jack
son he released from the Judgment
obtained against them by Floyd coun-
ty? Yes"
No exception would be taken to
this ballot were the word "ycs"
omittcd-lcaving the voters free to
~rtte Eyes" or "no," just as they
please ; but as the ballots all contain
the word Eyes," it looks like a snare
set by the Committee to cntrap the
voters of the County into an act which
hereafter they may be sorry for.
Once establish the precedent that the
people will assume the d~cfalcations Of
the County officers and release their
bOndsmcn, and "the end is not yet"
If you do this generous act for a Dem
ocratic dcfaulter, most aSsurcdly will
you be expected to do the same for a
Republican d~cfaultcr. 1t is well
known that we have one already on
our hands, and the Lord only knows
how soon we may have more of them.
We sympathizc with all our neigh
bors in their mislortuncs, but the
same sympathy that will discharge
the bondsmcn of dcfaulting officers
will redeem all the mortgagcd farms
and pay up all the debts that may be
found in our midst. Most certainly
do !, as a Republican, regret that any
one should undertake to commit the
Republican party to 4 measure so
fraught with evil in the future. "a
word to the WISE" &c.

A correspondent of the Davenport
Gazette writes that an invitation from
Bro. 7. S. Parvin, Esq for the mem
bers Of the Grand Lodge to visit the
State University was accepted. \
grand oyster supper, complimentary
to the members of the Grand Lodge,
was given by the Daughters of Re-
bckah and the brethren of Iowa City.
Early in the evening the brethren and
a goodly number of ladies assembled
at Odd Fellows Hall. After n short
time spent in sociality, the company
marched to Market Hall, where tables
literally grooming with good things
were spread. After %partaking there
of, the cloth was removed and speech
cs and sentiment prevailed. The
NJ. w. G. NJ. was on behalf of the
brethren Of Iowa City, presented an
"emblcm," which he accepted, and
responded to the donors in q happy
manner At n ~scasOnablc hour the
company dispersed, all highly pleased
with the entertainment.

There is danger. Let these continent
streams of humanity, each containing
undisturbcd its own peculiar impurI-
tics, flow in upon us, and 1t Will be
like the streams that pour into the
Dead Seattle pure to become corrupt,
and the impure to become more vile,
till deathly miasma is cXhalcd from
its whole surface, and imprcgnatcs
the entire atmosphere. What then
Shall we say to this in-howing tide of
human life, "lIold back thy waves ?"
Nay, this we may not do if we could !;
for ours is the last and almost the on
ly asylum for oppressed humanity or
the face of the whole earth. But,
really, we could not do it if we would.
We have sent forth our invitation to
the oppressed everywhere, to come
and take refuge with us beneath the
widc-sprcading branches of the tree
Of liberty. Our invitation has impart-
ed quickcncd life to them that had
wcll-nigh pcrishcd. And on they come,
and an they nW comc! You may as
well put forth your hand to stop the
mighty avalanche. What, then, shall
we do? What is our hope Our
hope, as an intelligent and virtuous
people, as a free and mighty nation,
whose citizens are not the abjcct scrfs
of dcspotic domination, nor yet the
mean footballs of unprinciplcd dcma-
gogucs, is in the universal diffusion
of the conservative and saving clc-
mcnt Of education and religion. This
shall mold into one homogeneous
character II whole people, however
wide may be their origin or diverse
their character.
1t is here, in Il own land and in
our WI age, that these grand ele-
mCnts Of power are to achieve their
grandcst triumph, or experience their
most disastrous defeat. Every citi-
zen, every lover Of his country, every
educator, should grid himself for the
contest, and resolve that the whole
mind and heart Of the nation shall be
imbucl with that science whose seat
is the bosom of God, and whose voice
is the harmony of the world"

the election of Col. +. d. Baker, for

The Mysteries of Life.

What mystic chords there are IN
the harp Of our spiritual being. How
we are surprised and startled some
times by unexpected revelations of
the world within us by sudden up
hcavals of the crust of the soil of an
earlier life through the opening of
which we get a momentary glimpse
of fathomlcss depths in our being,
that we knew not of before.
\ note in the music to which we
are listening, a word in the CONVERSE
ton, a tone of the voice, n smile, a
passing thought, has the power to an
initiate the present and all its conncc-
tiuns.
The room, the company, every OBJ
jcct of sight and sense, all that alb
sOrbed our attention an instant before,
vanishcs away the horizon of the
actual rcccdcs farther and farther, till
we seem standing above in infinite
space.
And now and forms and scenes
come up, and pass before us silently
and swiftly-wc seem to know them,
or feel as if we did know them some
time, somewhere. \ strange, CON
fused bcwildcrmcnt Expresses us
we strain every nerve Of thought to
bring the broken links OF mcmOry's
chain together, but in vain. Sudden
~ from that spectre crowd, still sweep
Ing past us SO swiftly and noisclessly,
a pale, sweet face looks ont upon us
with large, lustrous, swimming eyes,
SO full of tenderness and longing-
that face We have surely sccn before
o, if it would only stay ouc moment
it awakcns dim rcmembranccs of
another life, of a far off world, where
we were years ago. Quick ! gather
up the scattered fragments of memory,
the light is beginning to break on the
soul-w we reach out to catch the
thread which will lead us out Of the
labyrinth-our lips arc open to speak
the namc-whcn, sudden as the flash
of a gun, it shuts down, and all is
vanished and blank again
o, what would we not have given,
if that chord in the spirit could have
remained electric, and the circle of
communication maintained a moment
longer! 1t wanted, seemingly, but
one moment more, and We should
have restored the connections with
other and forgotten worlds and be-
ings, where onC we were, whom
once we knew, long ages since.

Hon. Thomas Ewing.

Mr.. Ewing of Ohio has recently
made a speech at Chilicothc, which in
tone, temper and ability rises far
above the level of cvcn what is con-
s'dcrcd good clc~ctionccring oratory.
MIR. Ewing has been a member Of two
Wing cabinets, and in both instances
the particular office conferred on him
proved the high estimate which the
President and his advisers put upon
his talents.
Mr.. Ewing is a Lincoln man, or, of
course, this speech would not have
been addressed by invitation to a Re-
publican meeting. In his cxamina-
ton of the Presidential candidates he
thinks Mr.. Douglas reckless and I'M
safe !; he respects Mr.. Breckenridge,
as a gentleman, but says he has no
record as a statesman, or AT least
o known to the speaker. He is
satisfied with Mr.. Lincoln, and will
support him, though he says he does
not place him in advance of all his
competitors ",Juhn Bell is his equal
in personal qualities, of larger expert
cncc, the elder statesman, and, if VIC
could make him our President, !
would consider him a very safe choice
| know him much more intimately
than Mr.. Lincoln. | was in counsel
with him daily for many months in
times of trial, and bcsi les my conf
dcnce in the statesman, | have fOl
him a warm feeling of personal friend
ship and regard" Mr.. Bell was il
Gen. IIarrison's cabinet with Mr.
Ewing.
Mr.. Ewing does not support Mr.
Bell, partly because he thinks he has
no chance of an election before the
people, and partly because he has full
confidence. founded on personal &C
q%uaintancc, in the conservatism OF
| Mr.. Lincoln. He knows him to be 4
sound lawyer, who, as an old wing.
was Il "calm, considerable and rca,
souimg member" Of that highly con
sentative party. 81 doubt not says
Mr.. Ewing, "that from the first tc
the last-in his inaugural address
and in his final messagc--hc will show
himself the President of the nation,
and not Of a section or party. For
tunatclv, he will not be thrown on an
extreme party for support. The CON
scrvativc interest nominated, and that
will also elect him"
The accession of such men as Mr..
Ewing to the support of Mr.. Lincoln
old friends Of John Bell and old fol,
lowers of Henry Clay-whosc conscr.
vativc record has been known and
read Of all men, must have q tendency
to propitiate the Bell party of the
South, and prepare it for effective and
cheerful cooperation with Mr.. Lincoln
in administering the government in
its southern branches of service. In
that view this speech has an impor,
lance ever beyond its inherent force.

Iowa CATTLE FOR THE BRIrIsH NAVY.
One of our citizens, who has Just
returned from a tour through the
Northern part of this State, reports
that during the last few weeks. about
1000 fat cattle have been purchased
in four or five northeastern coun-
ties, to be slaughtered and packed in
Milwaukee for the British navy. Last
fla. the same parties purchased about
800 head in these counties for the
same market. Only six or eight years
ago, the settlers in these counties
were importing cattle for their home
use now they annually export thou
sands Of the best beef cattle to feed
the Eastern States and Europe. So
we progress.
Tie pork crop in the north part of
the State is said to be unusually large.
