One of the trained bears at Barnums New

cheers for the Union, on demand We don't
think the rascal is much better than seces-

barely patriotic.

A TRUE AND NOBLE WOMAN. 1t will
be remembered that Lieut.. Abner
Smead, of the First Artillery, was sent,
few days since, by Lieut.. Slemner,
to Washington, to apprize the Govern
ment of the absolute necessity of sup
plies and reinforcenents at Fort Pick
ems. Forgetful of all obligations of
honor and duty, Lieut.. Smead took
Montgomery in his way anorthward,
and, having submitted his dispatches to
the persual of the rebel authorities,
proceeded to Washington, whittier the
news of the treason having anticipated
him, he was not shot, as he deserved
to be, but simply struck from the roll
of the army. The wife and children
Of Lieut.. Smead, with the families Of
several officers on duty in the South,
were at Fortress Monroe. The Lieu
tenant fastened from Washington to
obtain his family and remove them
Southwark, but his movements we're
not so rapid but that his crime had been
reported before him. When, therefore,
he presented himself at the fort, he was
refused admission, the officer on duty
declining '.to admit traitor within q
Federal post; the only favor conceded
being that he might have an interview
with Mrs. Smead without the walls.
That interview the unhappy miscre-
ant is not likely to forget. Attended
by few female friends, one of whom
furnished the account which we give of
the scene, the lady met her husband,
and in terms Of scorching eloquence,
reproached him with his shame.
SEQ home with you ?" she exclaim-
ed. "Never Our paths in this world
are hereafter separate. l disown you.
A coward and traitor, you are no hus-
band of mine. Henceforth you are to
me as if dead. As long as live
shall wear mourning, and be as
widow and rest assured l shall edu-
cate our children to execrate and des-
oise your memory as that Of a miscre-
Int and traitor"
Turning with these words, the noble
Ind patriotic woman re- entered the
:ort, and gave way to her very natural
feelings. We may add that Mrs. Smead
s, like her discarded husband, a native
# Georgia, and that while the latter
vent Southwark to obtain the reward
f his treason, the former, with her .
hildren, has come North passing
trough this on Tuesday, and is now at
Iorristown, N. J.

POSTAGE ON SEEDS. Under the new
regulation of the postage laws, seeds
and gratis can be sent by mail to any
distance under 1900 miles at one cent
per ounce, and over that distance two
cents. Hitherto they have been charged
letter postage, or six cents an ounce.
This will prove Of great advantage to
agriculturists. If any Of our friends
find it difficult to get good seed, we
shall be happy to procure them the best
in the market, and at the lowest rates,
charging them nothing for our trouble.

Adjutant Generals Office. 1t says there are
applications daily, and the list is continually
increasing. 1t will not be many days before
Iowa will have offered 10000 troops in an

SUIcIDE.-Robert W. Gilmore, for several
years past resident of Iowa City, whose
friends are said to reside within few miles
Of Auburn, n. Y, destroyed himself by
cutting his threat with razor literally
from ear to ear-in the saloon of Alexander
Tarbet, in Iowa City, on the night of the 9th
or morning of the 10th inst. The deceased
was man of education and refinement, but
unfortunately addicted to Incorporate habits.
The BODIES FOUND. - The bodies of Mrs
Weaver and her grandson were found yester-
day noon at the wreck. As we stated yester-
day morning, they were last seen attempting
to follow man and his wife out of the
cabin. Mrs. W. had evidently gathered up
Der light baggage, and probably had delayed
to assist her mother At the time she at
tempted to 60 out, the boat was very much
careened, and the cabin partially filled with
water It was like walking up steep bluff,
and she was encountered wit the boy. Their
bodies were found near where the two were
drowned. - Dav Gaz. 17th. eei

pose of stealing herses and other property,

we presume it is true, that Col Fitz Henry
Warren, of Burlington, has accepted the
post of Associate Editor and War Cores

long;
Broad breast, full eyes, small head and nostril
wide;
High crest, short ears, straightlegs and passing
strong;
Thin name. thick tail, broad bullock, tender
