IOWA NEWS.

"A man from Knox county, ILL.,, who had
been bitten on the hand by mad horse,
came all the way to Linn county, last week,
to try the virtue of the mad stone belonging
to Mr.. Evans, of Paris. The stone would
take no effect on him, and it was therefore
considered that he was in no danger. SO
says the Marion Register. I..,
The Des Moines Register says q few of
its entorprising citizens are seriously agita-
ting a project to build telegraph line from
Ottumwa to Des Moines, understanding that
it is the purpose of the B. T. M. r. r. to
construct line from the frs. named point
to Burlington. The cost is estimated at
81 900. We think it would be better policy
for the Des Moines people to secure tele-
graphic communication by way Of Iowa City
and Muscatine.
The MURDER OF Miss HARVEY, OF Rock
FoRD.-A correspondent from Ottumwa,
Iowa, writing to the Keokuk Journal, says
''The Chief of Police at Cincinnati has OBJ
tanned a requisition from the Governor Of
this State for the arrest of Macomb, the
murderer of Laura J. Harvey, and there is {
probability that he will be arrested soon
A reward OF two thousand dollars has beer
offered for his arrest-one thousand by the
Governor of this State, five hundred by thu
citizens of this county, and five hundred BY
the citizens of Rockford, Ill.,"

Were We Right ?

Two months since, the Journal predicted
lat the attempt at secession would prove
cad failure We said then, that in few
,onths reaction would commence in the
otton States, which would overwhelm the
, :cession leaders in defeat more disgraceful
I'd full of ruin than ever fell upon American
i; )liticians since the days of Arnold and Burr.
Sixty days have passed, and sooner than
c expected the tide has turned and begins
, como in. In twelve months time jeff.
Davis, Yancey, Rhctt, Wigfall & Co. will be
uined men. The fate of Burr will be mild
theirs. There is another class of gentle
men who will partly share in the ruin Of these
men. We mean Northern sympathisers with
Southern traitors. Hemp will be the fate Of
those that rebel; eternal shame will be that
Of their equally wicked coadjutors north. The
stencil which rose from the political graves OF
the Hartford conventionists is sweet compared
to the nosome oior which will attend north
ern secessionists and concessonists to theil
dying day. We warn all honest men who
love their country and regard their own goot
name, to come out at once from all compan
io,,Siip with the friends of traitors. Enrol
yourselves, friends, with the champions
the Constitution, the Union, the government
anu the laws. Avoid, like the pestilence, a
afiiiahon with rebellion; for our word for II
that stain once on your fair name never wi
wash out. Meier!

Virginia Convention.
RICHMOND, Feb. 26.

/ AsAOhnoNO1 WE %Os
A strong speech was made in the Conven
ton, yesterday, by MIR. Moore, of Rockbridge
in Letchers district, the substance of which
Was inimical to the rights of Virginia, ane
the whole South, and the people of Rich
mond. 1t was decidedly Union in its ten
dency, and strongly against the action Of
South Carolina.
The Secessionists posted bills calling every
true Southerner to attend an Indignation
meeting. Music was engaged, and 1900
persons assembled near the Exchange Hotel,
and strong Southern speeches were made by
delegates to the Convention. Ex-Governor
Wise was called for, but was unwell. The
meeting adjourned to the Spotwood House,
where more speeches were made. An
attempt was made to burn Mr.. Moore in
efigy, but was stopped by the Mayor. The
whole decided secession demonstration was
got up by parties in the negro business.
In convention to-day, Mr. Goode finished
his speech, affirming that it was the duty Of
Virginia to 60 with the south
Mr. Goggin offered resolution that it is
the duty Of Virginia to invoke the cc-opera-
ton of the border states, to promote meas
ures for concurrent action hereafter; that
Virginia is attached to the Union as it was;
but as it is, does not protect the rights; and
in the event of failure to obtain relief it is
her duty to provide for the future relations
she is to occupy as one ofthe southern states.
Mr. Goggin made long speech, denying the
right of secession; but then
was revolution any remedy for wrongs? He
wanted consultation of border states to
orm confederacy, and invite others to join.
ae believed Virginia secure in southern
;onfederacy. ,aa,

The LESSONS OF HIsrogY-The foreign
correspondent OF the New York Commercial
-AdgeTtsssr, in reporting how far the political
troubles in the Southern States have given
an inpetus to the desire to promote the cul-
tivation Of cotton in other parts of the world,
adds, that before nations enter into any
great movements, they should look we'll to
the manner in which it may divert the exist
ing channels Of trade. Russia forgot this
when she provoked the Crimean war, and the
consequence is that India having been stimu-
lated to grow substitutes for Russian produce
has now taken stand against her, and car
ries on competition with which she finds
the greatest difficulty in contending.

Those who have been so ready to censure
the President elect for passing iHcognito
through Baltimore will, we think, acknowledge
that he had high authority for so doing, when
it is known that Gen. Scctt himself advised
the ruse. There is no room to doubt that
certain desperate characters at Baltimore had
determined to make an attempt upon Mr..
Lincoln's LIE. Baltimore is notorious for its
rowdies Even Mr. Buchanan was subjected to
indisnities while passing through that city,
four years ago. Besides, Mr.. Lincoln had not
bean formally invited to receive the hospitali-
ties of the city. lie was, under the circum'
stances, fully justified in his action, and
appears to have been actusted more by reasons
Of policy than of fear

e Mr. Buchanan seems to have the hap
pest faculty Of muddling everything he puts
his hand to. A wel-arranged plum for the
celebration of Washington's birthday, at the
capital, had beed prepared, including mill
:ary parade. The Presidents fears were so
played On that he countermanded the order
for the appearance of the troops. Then an
indignant protest was made from the other
side, and he revoked his countermand The
consequence was an upsetting of the arrange.
ments, and disjointed parade.

TrouBLr BREWING IN GEoRGIA.-A few days
since, the Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle and Sen
tinel spoke of the result in Virginia as a
glorious victory for Union men, and in its
issue of February 10th, 1t plainly says that
fol this ard other expressions, threats have
openly been made to destroy the character
and business of the paper. These things have
not been mentioned before, but now the
Chronicle says it feels it has been forbearing
loog enough. Unrestrained popular passion,
personal ambition and party excuses, have
produced disunion, as it believes; and unless
these be checked, its fears are that they will
finally result in civil war, loss of liberty, and
military despotism. Against state of affairs
leading to these results, the Chronicle utters

PROPHETIC WORDS - Nearly quarter Of
century ago, Abraham Lincoln, then a
young man, uttered the following memorable
words, during speech at Springfield, called
forth by the then prevailing political excite
ment
sMany free countries have lost their lib
critics, and ours may lose hers; but if she
shall, be it my proudest plume, not that
was the last to desert, but that l never
deserted her. 1 know that the great vol
cano at Washington, aroused and directed by
the evil spirit that reigns there, is belching
forth the lava of political corruption, in q
current broad and deep, which is sweeping
with frightful velocity over the whole length
and breadth of the land, bidding fair to
leave unscathed no green spot or living
thing, while on its bosom are riding like
demons on the waves of hell, the imps Of
that evil spirit, and fendishly taunting all
those who Care to resist its destroying
course, with the hopelessness of their efforts;
and knowing this; cannot deny that all
may be swept away.
Broken by it we may be; bow to it ]
ncver will. The possibility that we may fall
in the struggle ought not to deter us from
the support of cause which we believe to
be just. 1t shall not deter me. If ever 1
feel the soul within me elevate and expand
to those dimensions not wholly unworthy Of
its Almighty Architect, it is when | contem-
plate the cause Of my country, deserted by
all the world beside, and l standing up
boldly, alone, and hurting defiance OF her
victorious oppressors.
"Here, without contemplating conse-
quences, before heaven, and in the face of
the world, l swear eternal fidelity to the just
cause, as deem it, of the land Of my life,
my liberty, and my love. And who that
thinks with me will not fearlegsly adopt the
oath that | take p? Let none falter who
thinks he is right, and we may succeed.
But if, after oil, we shall fail, be it so. We
still shall have the proud consolation of say
ng to cur consciences, and to the departed
shade Of our country's freedom, that the
'ause, approved Of our judgment, and adored
If cur hearts, in disaster, in chains, in
leath, we never faltered in defending

that when he told the President elsct that the

declaration of war. Mr.. Lincoln said e,nphat.

Cheating Each Other.

The unprincipled politicians down South
are likely to fall out among themselves about
the details of the new Government they pro-
pose inaugurating. The Charleston Mercury
is indignant at the Montgomery Congress for
its tariff proclvities, and for its action squint
ing toward condemnation of the African
slave trade, and says boldly that these features
probably were never intended to be carried
there, butwere doubtless Intended to conciliate
the Border Slave States, and induce them to
an carly nnion." The Mercury says such "a
constitutional recognition of a protective pol
icy, and constitutional brand upon the insti-
tuition of domestic slavery" must be defeated

CT The Southern Confederacy adopted
into its Constitution a clause, prohibiting
the slave trade, to catch the Border States.
This failed, and South Carolina now raves
because sacrifice was made for naught.
The Charleston Mercury says:
SIT seems to US short-sig GIFTED, weak and
sentimental to preclude forever, by funda-
mental enactments, the adoption Of a pol.
icy that may become essential to our ap.
propriate growth and ex expansion, and to our
