VIEWS OF JOSIAH QUNCY.-In the course
of remarks at the commencement dinner, at
Cambridge, Wednesday, Josiah Quincy, Jr.
made the following interesting allusion to his
venerable father:
1t will be interesting to know what is the
feeling of the Oldest graduate OF Harvard col
lege on the present condition of the country.
Day before yesterday l called upon him with
a gentleman from New York, who was very
DESTROYS to ask his opinion upon this subject
The first question was elbow do you feel
about the present state of affair."" Il glory in
it, was the reply. (Three cheers were given
for Josiah Quincy.) II never before saw how
it was possible for this country to escape from
the communicating influence of slavery and
the power of the south" (Cheers.) ''But, .
said the gentleman, I'VE have got to suffer
greatly" His reply was: eve are fighting
for republican institutions and they are wor-
thy of the contest. What great good was ever
obtained either by individuals or communities
without struggle.
Must be carried to the Skies
On floweTy beds of ease;
While others fought to win the prize,
Or sailed DER bloody seas?'
Said he, ''What is to be the end of this %
He replied: Il know not; it is in the hands
of a higher power. We have but one thing
to do, and that is to do our duty. Our duty
is to support the president of the United
States. (Vociterous cheers.) We are fight
ing the great battle of republican institutions
for this country in the future, and for the
world, and there is but one alternative-wc
must conquer or die"

OLD REcoRDs.-Since the superintendent
OF schools, some two years ago, commenced
his search for the early records of his depart
ment, his labor has been crowned with very
gratifying success. He has now in his DOS
session in manuscript or in print, nearly
consecutive collection of records and reports
from 1893 to the present time-containing
a variety of interesting facts not elsewhere
attainable, and greatly adding to the historical
value of our local archives. The original
manuscript records cover period of nearly
half century; the printed reports date only
from 1910. These are bound in handsome
volumes, duplicate copies of which are to
be placed in the public library.

EXCHANGE OF PRIsoNERs.-The Washing
ton correspondent of the New York Times
has the following facts in relation to the gen.
eral exchange of prisoners =
Col. Madison Miller of Missouri, and Ma
jor Stone of Iowa, Union prisoners captured
at Shiloh, have returned to Washington from
Petersburgh, Va. They came to Washington
on parole some weeks ago, by consent of the
rebel government, to negotiate general eX-
change of prisoners. They failed, and went
back to the confederates to give themselves up.
Subsequently Gen. Dix was directed to accept
the confederate proposition, which only re-
quired that Gen. Buckner should be included
by the national government in its list of pris-
oncrS to be surrendered When this news
reached Petersburgh, colonel Miller and ma
jor Stone, at the instance of the rebel sec
rotary of war, returned to Washington in
order to facilitate matter so desirable to
suffering prisoners on both sides. Miller says
there are twenty thousand Union prisoners at
the south, and that their food is deficient and
their sutferings great. He says further, that
the rebels are jubilant over their late fight;
that conscription is rigidly enforced, and their
army at Richmond very large, though none of
Beauregard's army is there.

REBEL BATTERIES ON JAMES RIVER.
The Tribune correspondent writes, under
date of 18th, some further particulars of the
late firing on James river The efforts of
the rebels to blockade the James river, and
cut off supplies from Gen. Mcclellan have
assumed quite a serious shape. There are
so many points between Harrson's Landing
and jamestown where musketry can be en-
ployed with almost unerring certainty that
this species of blockade has become even
more effective than artillery or heavy guns,
since sharpshooters in rifle pits and ambus-
cades bid defiance to the gunboats, while
artillery and land batteries cannot stand their
fire. On Saturday our transports were fred
on repeatedly from what is known as old fort
Powhatan, situated on a bluff about forty feet
above the water, on the west side of the river,
about ten miles below Harrison's Landing,
where the river makes a sharp turn, and is
very narrow, and where the fort bears direct.
ly on channel for a stretch of two or three
miles as you approach or go up. The Paci-
tc, having in tow a schooner, was fred on at
this point on Saturday, and the line cut by a
cannon shot. The captain of the Pacific,
with great heroism, while the shot were flying
around him. went back and picked up his
tow, and proceeded Capt. John Penning-
ton, OF New Jersey, Of the bark Mustang,
was shot through the body with a rifle ball.
Though he yet survives in the hospital here,
ne Is believed to be in Il critical condition.
Inc mail boat Warner was fired on also, and
struck several times by musket shot. but no
damage was done. Two or three gunboats
shelled the place, but the artillery held out
for some time. The sharpshooters seemed to
regard the Smelling very little. They have
the effect to intimdate navigators who have
no fear Of heavy guns, and for this reason
the former are really most mischievous. The

Governors Message.

Let no one omit to read the Governor
Message. 1t contains a large amount of in
formation which il is important that every cit.
izen Of iowa should possess. The style of the
message is transformations, strong, clear and
and concise, SO that no one can misunderstood
its meaning. Our revenue system, and the
condition OF our State finances, are dwclt up
on at some length, and il is well that it is So
The people should be made thoroughly ac-
quainted with these matters and if the law
for the collection Of taxes can be made more
efficient, we sincerely hope it will be done. 1t
is shame and an outrage that the few who
promptly pay their taxes should furnish all the
means for supporting County and State gov
eminent which alike benefit the payer and the
non-payer, thus crippling the treasury so that
persons these very persons who are prompt
payers holding the warrants of the County or
State cannot obtain their dues By all means
let the collection of the taxes be rigidly en-
forced.
Tho suggestion of the Governor that wool
growing should be encouraged by excmpting
ut least fifty sheep OF each farmer from taxa
ton, and imposing a tax on dogs, is u good
one but the plan of Withholding aid to Coun-
ty Agricultural Societies We must dissent from
II carried out il will PROSTATE nine tenths of
all the societies i'm the State. We believe if
farmers are willing to be taxed for any thing
it is for the support of their own institutions,
the County Agricultural Societies.
We have not time to review the message
further, and again urge every one to read it.
