Eating Habits.

The most common way to premature
grave and one of the shortest cuts to that
destination, is down a mans throat
There is multitude which no man can
number, daily eating immoderately, thus
sapping the constitution and laying the
foundation for innumerablo ills and too
early grave. The wise man does it, and
the fool; the virtuous and abandoned !;
the kind and the cross, of all climes, are
among the errorists. But there are some
who are wise as to this point, and the
number is increasing; the number of
those who are men and women of force,
who think for themselves, observe for
themselves; who have vigor Of intellect
enough to compare causes and effects,
antecedents and consequents. There is
constantly coming to us the knowledge
of mothers, who, by the teachings of this
journal, have been led to regulate their
households nationally, and arc reaping q
rich reward in the shape Of health for
themselves, and what is dearer still, in
creasing health for their children.

A few days since a number of the SOL.
diers at keokuk went on bender, and
were arrested for disorderly conduct
They were sentenced to pass few hours
in the guard house. The sentence afilict-
ed them. They averred that they were
willing to 60 to Jail, or to the pcniten-
tiary, or to the stocks, or even to the
stake; but the idea of going to the guard
house to associate with Dean was more
than their philosophy could bear They,
however, had to 90. While in the Gala
boose, they INDUCED in several mischie-
vous plcasantrics whereof Dean was the
victim. Tho "Blessed Martyr" was
placed on trial for Treason. He was con.
vlcted, or cvu,o~, aud was sent need na,
be hanged. He was released from the
clutches of the soldiers by singing pat.
riotic song in which judges and jury
freely participated. The soldiers had
no thought of abridging the life of the
Martyr. They desired some fun, and
they had it.-Des Moines Register.

A Sleepy Couple.

A lady claimed as her husband GEN
tleman who very ungallantly resised the
claim. The case came into court, when
the lady proved, by the evidenes Of a
priest and the proper number of witness.
es that the marriage ceremony had been
read over to the parties, and the defend
ants tacit assent obtained to the sigma.
ture, by the priest, of his name to tho
marriage contract. The validity of tho
marriage was, of course, declared, and
the .luckless defendant was retiring in
despair, when the priest, who had no
objection to another professional job,
pointed out to tho reluctant benedict an
easy means of relief. owe can bury
her, says his reverence, "just in tho
same way that We married you, namely,
asleep" So said, so done. The burial
service was read over the bride in her
frst sound slumber; the constructive
widower duly put on mourning, and pro.
ceeded to pay his addresses in quarter
more agreeable to him. His deceased
wife, a. in law she was to be called, pro.
ceeded to vindicate her vitality by legal
process; but it would not do; the former
precedent prevailed; tho burial service
was held as conclusive of death as tho
marriage service had been of marriage,
and the constructive widower married
the lady of his choice.

Progress.

We behold its giant strides of useful.
ness in one place, its slow but steady
footprints in the domains of thought,
and thankfulness fills our hearts that so
much light is awarded to the present tur.
buleot era. Not atfrighted by wars and
disruptions, science continues her re.
searches, and inventions crowns the toll
of man. The soul ptor has his inspira-
tions, though around him the world
shouts in tumult, for Oppression or for
Liberty. The artist is plunged in his
paradiscan dreams, and forms Of tho
Beautiful to be visited in his silent
hours. Tho poet pours forth his soul in
the inspiring freedom-lays born of sorrow
and national trial The march of intel
lect is onward, and the faith and knowl.
edge of man points upward, even from
the CORY battle fields, the saddened home
steads of the land. Through seas Of
blood We are marching on to a glorious
full6llment Of destiny the example Of
true Freedom to be given to the world
by people thoroughly cmancipated from
olden prejudices; for this is the fiery
ordeal and the cruci6xion of 50 many
brave and loving hearts. For this, that
the land may be bIest, and other lands
beholding, worship the fnllness of right
eous Liberty, are We now draped in
mourning shadows, counting the blood
OF martyrs, the tears of the bereayed,
the horrors of the conflict, as the price
paid for Progress-as the ransom of
united loyalty for the souls and bodies of
the oppressed everywhere.

"sTwas my Mothersa.U

A company of poor children, who had
been gathered out Of the alleys and gar.
rets of the city, we're preparing for their
departure to new and distant homes in
the West. Just before the time for the
starting Of the cars, one Of the boys was
noticed aside from the others, and appa-
rently very busy with cast. off garment.
The superintendent stepped up to him
ard found he was cutting small piece
out Of the patched lining. 1t proved to
be his old jacket, which, having been re-
placed by new one, had been thrown
away. There was no time to be lost
"Come, John, come :" saidQhe superin-
tendent, "what are you going to do with
that old piece Of calico"
Please, sir" said John, "I am cut
ting it out to take with me- My dear.
dear mother put this lining into my old
jacket for mo. This was a piece of her
dress, and it is all that Ihave to remen,.

And as the dear boy thought of tha.

he covered his face with his hands, aud

Many an eye moistened as the story Of
this orphan boy had been told; and

the fatherless and motherless would be
his friend. He loved his mother, and
We cannot but believe that he obeyed
her and was faithful child. Will my

Letter from Gen. Hunter.


The following letter from Gen. Hunt.
er to jeff. Davis, is printed in the Free
South, dated:
HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT OF THE South,
Hilton Head, Port Royal. April 23d, 63.
Jefferson Davis, Richmond, Va:
The U. 5. flag must protect all its de-
Tenders, white, black or yellow. Several
negroes in the employment of the Gov
ernmen. in the western department have
been cruelty murdered by your authori-
ties, and others sold into slavery. Every
outrage of this kind against the laws of
humanity which may take place in this
Department, shall be followed by the im.
mediate execution of the rebel Of the
highest rank in my possession, man for
man; the execution will certainly take
place for every one murdered or sold into
slavery, worse than death.
On your authorities will rest the re.
sponsibility of this barbarous policy, and
you will be held responsible in the world
to come for all the blood thus shed. In
the month Of August last you declared
all those engaged in arming the negroes
to fight for their country to be felons,
and directed the immediate execution
of all such As should be captured.
l have given you long enough to reflect
on your folly. I now give you notice
that unless the order is Immediately re-
voked. will at once cause the execution
Of every rebel officer and every rebel
STAKEHOLDER in my possession. The poor
negro is fighting for liberty in its truest
sense, and Jefferson has beautifully said:
"In such war there is no attribute of
the Almighty which will induce him to
fight on the side of the oppressor"
You say you are fighting for liberty.
Yes, you are fighting for liberty to keep
millions of your fellow. beings in igno-
rance and degradation. Liberty to sep
arate parents and children. husband and
wife, brother and sister. Liberty to steal
the products of their labor, exacted with
many cruel lash, and bitter tear. Lib
erty to seduco their wives aud daughters,
and to sell your own children into bond
age. Liberty to kill these children with
impunity, when the murder cannot be
proven by one of pure white blood. This
is tho kind Of liberty-the liberty to do
wrong, which Satan, chief Of tho fallen
angels was contending for when he was
cast into hell
have the honor to be, very respectfully,
Your most obedient servant

For the Upton Advertiser.

CEDAR BLUFFS, June 1st 1868.
Ed. Of Advertiser:-I notice in your
last issue, Mr.. Fellows remarks on can.
didates for Office, the course pursued by
political parties, &C., which l thought
good, we'll timed, and the subject deserv.
ing the attention of all at this time.
l think no one who has observed the
political course of parties aud persons in
our Government for the last forty years,
will deny that corruption of the former
and sel6shness of the latter has been the
rule, and not the good of Government or
of the governed; and it only needs the
people, whose interests are identical, to
come to the work of reform which is now
so much needed, to secure honest, worthy
aud capable officers. Vote for no man
whose private character is not honest and
upright, and who does not openly discard
vice aud intemperance. Were l to fix
the time when corruption became mark.
ed, prominent and continuous in the po.
litical horizon of our Government, it was
near forty years ago, when certain par.
ty inaugurated cohesion to party, and to
the Utctors belong the spoils. Adhesion to
those notices have preyed on the homes.
ty, virtue, merit and the best interests of
our Government and people.
And those, with slavery, have corrupt.
ed our people, sacrificed thousands Of
lives, millions of treasure, and endanger.
led the very existence of our, the best
Government on earth. And now shall
are we correct it? Our interests generally
identical, and our aims our common good.
As a remedy would suggest we vote for
no man who is disloyal to our Govern.
,ment aud its constituted authorities, who
is not honest and capable, who does not
discard intemperance and doggcries, and
tall species Of gambling, and whose views
are not for rctrenchment in our State and
county expenses, and reduction of the
salaries of officers. The present high
salaries increases the army of demagogucs,
Iexcites our political campaigns, and very
much hazards the election of worthy and
meritorious officers. That legislator who
will urge and prosecute to success the
reduction of salaries of all officers to the
receipts of Legitimate business, in our
Government, State, counties, &C., will
merit embalming in the hearts of the peo-
pie, and be long remembered by the tax
payers Of our Government. Loyalty to
the Government, honesty, capability, aud
the least possible tax on the people. dis
cardiug intemperance aud gambling,
should be our standard for officers. Elect
such and am heart and hand with you,
and shall expect speedy peace and pros.
perity to be the result And let me sug.
gest courtesy and kindness to one anoth.
er good prescription in this dark hour.
Yours truly, RoB'r COVER.

Patriotism of Gerrit Smith.

We find the following paragraph in
the published proceedings Of the N. Y.
State Convention of Union Leagues:
"While waiting for the report of the
Committee on Resolutions, loud calls
were made for Hon. Gerrit Smith, who
addressed the Convention in a brief but
highly conservative and patriotic speech.
He said they were body composed of
Democrats, Republicans, Abolitionists
and temperance men, having in view
solely the work of crushing the rebellion.
He said he was willing to sacrifice eve
rything to secure that end. lie would
even run the risk of seeing Slavery re-.
stored to its former strength. He re-
pudiated all party views or personal
schemes in time like this, and claimed
that Union men should sacrifice every
thing else to put down the rebellion. He
said it was not war to save the country,
or the Constitution even, but for more
important object-thc conqueriug of reb.
els in arms. He urged the most thor.
ough support of the Government, and
the most cordial hate of the rebels. The
conservative and conciliatory character
of his speech both surprised and pleased
the Convention
