ARE SLAVES CONTRABAND OF
WARs

The pos's'o" assumed by Gen. BUTLER,
and approved by the Administration, that
slaves. whose masters are in rebellion, ora
.cnrabaud Of war, gives rise to d nice
''s''''0'~ -'.ooitical question. 1t the
OF war-and cer,...srded as contraband
have hard work to make any-asmy would
without them--will tae Government 'ens
hscats them? If oonfseated to tho No,
81 the Goverrment, are they any longer
slaVesf Another question naturally arises
Al they are considered by the Government,
IS contraeand OF war, is not that a ram,
milton Of them su,.,,
individual" born free and equal could
hardly be called contraoand of war under
any circumstances. Old Abe will have to
be careful, or he may comm. his party to
q recognition Of The doctrine that slaves
are property.
Notwithstanding the political question
involved, no one will question the correct.
ness of the policy assumed by Gen. Bur
LER. When South Carolina and Louisiana
began taking such insonsiderate trifles as
forts end arsenals, they told the Govern.
nsnt that an accurate account would be
kept for the final settlement The Gov.
ernmeot is now keeping an accoun. of the
services Of these slaves, and their labor
Will all be credited TO the rebels a. soon
ns they return TO their allegiance, and will
be applied toward the expenses of the var.
In the meantime, as the Government
cannot hold slaves, and as their masters
are entitled to none of their wages while
in rebellion, it would seem that the sable
laborers must draw their own wages.

DEMOCRATIC STATE cONvEN.
TON.

A call for Democratic State Conven-
ton to meet at De, Moines on the 10th Of
July, to nominate candidates for Governor,
Lieut. Governor. a., appears in some ofthe
Democratic papers in the Eastern part of
the State, signeI by D. A. MAHoSEY CHAR
man pro tem,' Of the State Ex Committee.
As We have heretofore indicated, we are
opposed to drawing parry lines in the
coming election, and will only favor such
. course when we are satisfied that the
opposition are determined to force this is.
sue upon the people. In the present crisis
the co operation Of men of all parties is
needed to resist the rebellion which exists
in the South. If party lines are drawn,
detection among the people will follow,
the results of which will be disastrous to
the Government. We want to hear moth
ing of party-,he duty Of all now is to
sustain the Government. When the nu-
thnrity Of the Government is indicated
and peace restored, it will be time enough
for the people to devote THAR attention to
the success Of party and the "spoils Of
office"
Bat under no circumstances can we
consent 10 recognize this call for State
Convention until we are satisfied that i. is
called by the proper authority. The last
Democratic State Convention in Iowa Sc.
lected HENRY ALTMAN, Of Davenport. as
Chairman Of the Executive Committee,
by whom, with the concurrence Of the
other members Of the Committee, calls
for conventions must be made. We have
not been informed that Mr.. ALTMAN has
been incapaciated to act as Chairman. If
he has, however, we--as member Of the
Committee for the 4th district claim that
We should have been consulted in regard
to the choice and acts Of his successor.

A compound remedy, designed to be the most
%efIectual AHeratirc that can be made. 1t is
a concentrated extract Of Para Sarsaparilla,
so combined with other substances Of still
greater Alternative power as to afford an cffec-
tive antidote for the diseases Sarsaparilla is
reputcd to cure. 1t is believed that such q
remedy is wanted by those who suffer from
Strmnous complaints, and that one which will
accomplish their cure must prove of immense.
service to this large class of our afflicted fellow
citizens. How completely this compound will
do it has been proven by experiment on many
OF the worst cases to be found of the following
complaints -
ScRorULA Ann ScnorULous COMPLAINTS,
ERurTIoNs y EnUpTIvE DISEASES, ULcERs,

OR ST. ANTnoNY's FIRE, and indeed the whole
class Of complaints arising from IMpUnlrY "
THE BLOOD.
This compound will be found a great pro.
moter OF health, when taken IN the spring, to
expel the foul humors which foster in the
blood at that season Of the year. BY the time
ly expulsion OF them many ranking disorders
are nippcd i'll the bull. Multitude5 can, by
the aid OF this remedy, spare themselves from
the endurance OF foul cruptions and ~ulcerous
sores, through which the system will strive to
rid itself OF corruptiOns, if not assisted to do
this through the natural channels Of the body

vitiated blood whenever YOU iinl its impurities
bursting through the skinin pimpl,s. criptions,
or sores; cleanse it when YOU lind it is OBJ
structcd and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it
whenever it is foul, and your feelings will tell
you when. Even where no particular disorder
is felt, people enjoy better health, and live
longer, for cleansing the blood. Keep tho
blood healthy, and all is well but with thi9
pabulum Of life disorlcred, there can be no
lasting health. Sooner or later something
must go wrong, and the great machinery Of
life IS dj'orlerca or ovcrtlrrown.
Saraapariila has, and deserves much, the
reputation Of accomplishing these ends. But
the world has been cgregiOusly deceived by
preparations Of it, partly because the drug
alone has not all the virtue that is claimed
for 1t, but more because many preparations,
pretending to be concentrated extracts of it,
contain but little Of the virtue Of Sarsaparilla,
or any thing else.
During late years the public have been mis-
lei by large bottles, pretending 10 give q quart
OF Extract Of Saraapariila for one dollar. Most
4 these have been frauds upon the sick, for
they not only contain little, ii any, Sarsapa-
rlila, but often no curative properties whatev-
or. Hence, bitter and painful disappointment
has followed the use Of the various extracts Cf
