James Redpath, fiery Abolitionist Of
the John Brown-G arrisonian school, and
more recently editor of the Pine and Palm,
at Boston, has published complete recan-
tation, in which he says that having been
convinced that much Of his political writing
has been dangerous and abhorrent to the
highest insight, the rnurderous policy, for
example, of melting slaves to Instruction"
he retires from the political management of
that journal until such time as he feels he
has attained clearer and more human
and christian view Of the duties of the free
man to the enslaved."
One of the good effects of the present
war, is the enlarged conception which it
gives to radical men of anti-slavery and
pro.slavery ideas, Of their duties to the gov
eminent, and their fellow. citizens. The
days of extreme opinions are numbered
A common danger arouses the nation to
unity of sentiment and concert of action.
In the crucble Of war, ultra ideas lose
their individuality. If the government of
the United States is not quite up to the
measure of our standard Of perfection, it is
well for us to reflect that it is by alt odds
the best government in the world, and
therefore all our hopes for the present and
expections for the future, lie in it's prescr
vation To this eoncluc;o,, Late nyopts ,,o
tending.

4 Financial Novelty.

Chicago is very smart town; an active
energetic, thriving town; but despite the
efforts of the Chicago Tribune to make;it
so appear, she is E.t yet the hub of the
universe; by no manner Of means. The
latest proposition in the way of ctntraliz-
ing wealth at that point is stated by tho
Tribune to be this, viz: That the banks
of Iowa, Indiana, and Montreal should 81 s.
pend at home and redeem in Chicago at /
per cent. discount. This modest project
to fill up the city Of Chicago with specie,
and the state of Iowa with eastern currency
Of very uncertain reputation, is cooler than
any weather which we have had from the
N. N. W. quarter Of the compass this sea-
son. However, least any of our readers
should fear this proposition will be carried
into effect, we will state, that no sooner had
the proposition been preached than letters
were returned from several of the Branch
banks of this state, to the effect that I'M
der no circumstances would they suspend
specie payments. Honor to Iowa banks,
and coincidence for Chicago.

An Important Matter.

There is one matter which we urge up
on tbs Legislature as an important meas
ure of relief to the people Of Iowa. In
substance it is this, that bill be passed
making receivable for taxes any currency
paid out by the State Bank Of Iowa, or
any Of its branches. The necessity of such
a measure is apparent. The suspension OF
specie payment by the New York banks
has deprecated paper currency just enough
to send gold ans silver rapidly into vaults
so that it apparently will be sheer i'm
possibility for the people to get a sufficient
quantity Of coin to cancel their taxes. In
equity, anything good enough to 60 over
the counters of the State bank Of Iowa
and its branches is good enough to pay
state indebtedness with.
A bill of the nature suggested above will
be an evident relief to the people of this
state.

CorroN IN ILLINOIS. The Jonesboro
Un) Gazette, that since tho recent erection
OF cotton gin in that place, over 1000
lbs. of good cotton have been brought in
to be ginned, that product Of that county
alone. This establishes the fact that good
cotton can be grown in the northern states,
and another season will find the expert.
ment practiccd very generally. 1t is stat
ed that Ave hundred lbs. Of good cotton
can be raised per acre on good soil. At
the present price of that article, 40 cents
per h., one acre therefore would yield
crop worth $4,000. This is better than
wheat at fifty cents, or pork az $500 per
hundred lbs, as any man with half an eye
can see. Even at ten cents per h. it would
be more profitable than any other crop
which our farmers raise.
Let some Of our practiced agriculturists
of this section give the cotton thorough
trial and let us know whether we cannot
soon add another to our list of Hawkcye
productions. Certainly if we can grow
our own cotton and manufacture our own
sugar, we are becoming Independent of the
rebels very fast.

Bank Suspension.

| AsNuh SusVehsaOus
On Wednesday morning of last week,
our town was thrown into high state OF
excitement by the rumor that the Banking
House of Lee & kinnaird had closed thci,
doors. 1t was known that this firm had
been embarrassed by the financial crisis OF
1857, and subsequently by the shinplaster
disasters Of last winter and spring Blu,
having come through these safely, it was
thought they were firmly established, and
confidence seemed unlimited n,them.
Their liabilities amount to about $57, 200
and their assets, consisting mostly of real
estate, are estimated at about the same val.
uc, but they can only be converted into
cash for the benefit Of creditors at grea.
sacrifice.
We have not yet learned what the prob.
able loss will be to depositors Tut sulli.
cient is known to show that it will be heavy.
The McGregor Branch Bank and The
State bank of Iowa, will suffer nothing by
this unfortunate failure.
The circular which we give below de.
tails the causes which led to the failure oil
the house. The assets and liabilities are
! all in the hands of Thos. Arnold, ESQ,
Assignee, to whom all creditors and debt
ors must go. Here is the placard of the
bank:
"In consequence of the many and severe
losses we have sustained since the financial
difficulties Of 1857, and the great deprecia,
| ton of property which has fallen on our
Understanding it entirely unavailable
together with the gloomy prospects of the
future, in a financial point of view, we are
compeled--after having struggled and toll
ed almost necessarily for the last four years
to save our patrons from loss to announce
our suspension.
In view of the above facts, we have
deemed it expedcnt, through the advice of
our friends, to make an assignment of all
effects belonging to the firm, and belonging
to each member thereof, to gentleman of
known responsibility and integrity, in or
der that our creditors might feel assured
that the best course would be pursued--by
the judcious disposal of property-to rem
der their loss as small as possible.
In being compelled to take this step, we
can but assure our creditors that qee are the
greatest sufferers; and that should our
assets fail to fully meet our liabilities-we
shall always stand ready, should our cir
cumstances ever permit, to cancel the last
dollar Of orr Indebtedness.
The McGr,gor Branch Of the State Bank
Of Iowa, with which we have been con-
nected will-we are pleased to say-suffer
no loss through us; nor will the firm of c.
II. Conkey & Co., of Fillmore, Mimi, with
which our Mr.. Lee has been connected, be
in the least embarrassed by our suspension
Collections maturing at our office will be
found at the McGregor Branch Of the State
Bank of Iowa.
