SUDDEN DEATHS.

DIR. Hall, in his " Journal Of Health, i" SAYS
that very few Of the sudden deaths which are
said to arise from disease of the heart do
reslly arise from that cause. To ascertain
the real origin of sudden deaths. the Doctor
says. the experiment. has been tried in Eu.
rope and reported to scientific congress
held at SIrasburgh. sixty-six Eases of sud-
den death were made tue subjects Of tho
rough post mOrtem examination. In these
cases only tSo were found who died from
disease Of the heart. Nine out of the SIXTY.
six died from spoplexy. while there were for.
ty-six rases Of congestion Of lie lungs; that
is, the lungs we're 50 foil Of blood lhey could
not work, there not being room enough for a
sufficient quantity Of air to enter q support
life. The Doctor goes on TO enumerale the
causes that may produce congestion ot lungs.
They are: cold feet light shoes tight cloth
ing costlyeness; sitting still until chilled
through after being warmed by la5ar ~ 4
rapid walk going too suddenly traa cioss
heated room into the cold air, especially AZ
ter speaking; and sudden depressing news
operating On the blood. These ranses 81
sudden death being known, an avoidance Of
them may serve TO lengihen oui valuable lives
which would otherwise be list under the YER
dict Of hear; complaint. That disease is
supposed to be incurable. and hence men
may not take the pans they would to avoid
sudden death If they knew II lay IN their
power.

THE MONEY Y-GRABBERS IN WAR TINES
As winter approaches the prospect becomes
more immediate Of great and bitter suffering

any prosiraIion Of business, but solely on ac-
count of the combinations and extortions
practiced by spectators to advance The prices
81 articles Of prime and indispensable neces-
sity. Speculative combination is circle
that constantly contracts, and scarcely any
limit can be designated to the increased sui

gloaied wealth Of its capitalists and managers
on the other. These men are making their
wealth ou, Of the blood OF their country. The
money -grabbers in war times seem not to
care for man or devil. His iron box is gorg-

Politicians ". Soldiers.

While Gov. Randall was considering the
appointments for vacancies in the End rcgi-
ment Of Wis. volunteers, he asked Edwin
O'Conner if he had any objections to the
position Of Lieut.. Colonel the Colonclcy
having previously been rendered him. lie
replied he had not, il a military man was
appointed Colonel. When Hon. John F.
Potter's name was mentioned. he positively
refused to accept any position in the staff,
and the soldiers all applautied him for it,
The disastrous folly Of appointing politi-
Glars to the command Of regiments has
been fully demonstrated. and Gov. Randall
deserves censure tor his proposal to do
anything Of that sort. That kind of busi-
mes, is pretty well played out. -,..- .a
BY the way, if we are correctly posted,
not solitary Member Of Congress, or Of.
flee holder Of any rank, has yet volunteered
in the army, notwithstanding all of the
heavy declarations to that effect which
have been spread over the country within
the past five months. We remember to
have seen letter from this same Potter, in
which he requested Capt Jack Langworthy
Of Milwaukee, to reserve place for him in
the ranks Of his company, but he never
went in.
Without doubt many Of these politi-
clans have personal bravery, but their pat
riotism u IL, shalloc for q soldiers lye!
They can cross their legs at case in sump.
'u,us maqusc, and dictate their orders to
attendants occasionally undergoing the
fatigue Of regimental inspection. They
can also accept a monthly salary ranging
from $1,000 to $3.50. They sometimes
fight; sometimes run. But they do not
accept the hard fare and undergo the severe
labors Of the private soldiers; and this fact
mpcaches their protcstations Of high and
holy patriotism. ... 49,. ...'
1t is time that these comedies of our
"great men, were ended. The people are
going to put down this rebellion, and the
men by whose favor these politicians went
to Congress or to State Offices, are the men
who have and will shoulder their muskcts
to put it down, but il is well the appointing
powers should learn that merit must here
after go at the head Of our brave regiments,
whether il administers the interests of State
and the country, or not. ..

Fusion.
This word has terrific import to the
apprehension Of some minds, and is often
used by narrow. guaged men as term Of
reproach. Considered in political sense
its definition may be rendered as the dis
solution of party lines when confronted by
a common danger or common necessity,
and the resolving of the elements into
common organization calculated to meet the
cxigencics of the case. Viewed in this
light, what objection can be raised to the
concentration Of the Republican and Demo
cratic forces in one solid phalanx TO sup.
port the government till every danger that
threatens its disintegration has passed
away2 49,.
In the old days of the Revolution there was
but one party for the war, and one party
against it, and yet on a score Of less impor.
tant questions the fathers would, no doubt,
have divided into two or more parties. Let
the Congress Of the U. S. attempt palpa-
bic outrage in legislation upon the inter-
csts Of the people Of the Mississippi valley
and they woald unite as one man to resent
it. Thus in this State, if the Legislature
should pass an act operating to advance the
interests of the southern portion of the
commonwealth at the expense OF the north
ern half, We should unite here without re
gard to party lines to resist the outrage.
Whenever in the course Of events it is
for our interest to consolidate for the &C.
complishmcnt Of an end in which we are
all interested, we iuvoluntarily act in perfect
unison, and The person who should inter

Stephen, and the verdict would be, served
him right.
Now, we earnestly and seriously urge

liable than the attack, in short time this
government will not be worth half the val

zens Of Clayton County, without respect of
party will be held at Elkader on Saturday
Of this week for the purpose Of appointing
del, gates to the State Convention which is
to assemble at Des Moines on the 2sth.-
Tho time within which action is necessary
to be taken was necessarily so limited as to
preclude the holding of delegated Con-
vention, and perhaps it is best that it is so.
We shall expect to see large and enthu-
siastic mceting-such an one as should at

There will be no politicians there with axes
to grind; there will be no party hacks with
hands extended for the charity of three

confined to the chaffery Of politics when
the country is throbbing from center to

The late election has demonstrated incon.
tcstibly that Kentucky is true to the Union.
The telegraph informs us that when the re-
suit was made known in the House of Rep
resentatives by the venerable Mr.. Wickliffe,
coupled with the assurance that the glor-
Gus old State which was the first to adopt
the Constitution, would be the last to reject
it, thunder Of applause from the floor and
galleries shook the walls of the capitol.
Coming right upon the heels Of our re-
verse at Bulls Run, this election is pecul-
arly significant. We never could bring
ourselves to the belief that brave Kentuck-
ians-the essence Of southern chivalry and
hospitality ever desert the old Star
Spangled Banner. Now neutrality will be
cast away, and active service for the Union
will take its place. God bless old Ken.

brought forth good fruit. The treason o.

On Tuesday Of last week the Aliamakee
Capt. 3isbie commanding, left this levee,
with over one hundred scholars Of the
Congregational Sabbath School, and host
of their friends. prepared with everything
necessary for demonstration on Harper's
Ferry. Passed the Key City off Johnson's
Landing and after jolly good cruise arrv-
ed at destination about 1880 a. m. Imme-
diately dsembarkcd and formed in order of
attack Threw out skrimishcrs ahead who
soon reported the enemy in good force in
pleasant grove about three fourths of
mile distant A council Of war was held
upon the spot and it was agreed to take
the place by storm. With the supply wa
gon in the center the body moved steadily
forward to the assault. There was no
fiinching in the ranks; on the contrary it
was found almost impossible to restrain the
ordor Of the advancing columns. Arrived at
the grove, our forces rushed with shout
into the enemy's entertainments, and took
the place without firing single gun.
Mr.. Harper yielded all Of his works pre-
pared with good taste, with grac, worthy
of all commentator. In twinkling, busy
hands had spread the tables with an abundt
| ance of choice dantes, and justice was
done to the repast The prisoners also
were we'll treated, as we had occasion to
observe.
After dinner the exercises w-rc opened
by prayer by Rev. Mr.. Sloan, who subsr-
quently made few remarks appropriate to
the occasion. Among other things he said
that on the way up some one had asked
him if there was any presidents on board
Said he saw Mr.. Lincoln in 1850 and he
then looked no more like president than
did many of the children before him
He had no doubt, moreover that many o.
the little girls whose sparkling eyes looked
into his own, had apparently the same
prospect Of being the mistress of the
White House, that Mrs. Lincoln had TWEEN

Excellent speeches were made by Mcssrs
Finch, Grant, Gilchrist, Mr.. Harper, ant
others, interspcrscd with choice singing.
The expedition returned about six O clock
p. M. with colors flying, satisfied with thu
exploits Of the day.

crops A prolonged ram on Sunday has
materially advanced heprospcct of potatoes

the receipts are light. On yesterday our
buyers were paying in gold $1,000 for No.
