The people of Kossuth county,
Iowa, have got up small mill
lenium on their own hook. They
say that for more than six years
past there never has been horse
stolen from the county, and no
one who has lived In 1t has ever
stolen a horse, or even a sheep.
Moreover, there has never been a
criminal prosecution Of any kind
in the county. intoxicating liq-
uors have not been soldin the coCI-
", openly, nor have they been
kept for sale at any of the stores
or taverns. OF course they give
about seven Union votes to one

The notorious bridge burner
and raider Morgan has again
been cutting his fantastic ca
pers" in Kentucky. On satur-
day he attacked and defeated a
detachment of Illinois troops at
Elizabethtown, and on Sunday
he did the same, for Regiment
of our own men guarding the
trestle work and bridge at Mul.
draugh's hill. In this way he
has been able to do very serious
injury to the Louisville and
Nashville Railroad. At last ac-
counts he was being driven east
from Nolans fork by way OF
Bardstown, Col. Harlan having
repulsed him from the former
place.

News of the Week.
uoSD.r, November 81. 1862.

On Monday we found ourselves
automatically enlightened on the
mysterious subject of the where
abouts OF Banks and his expedi-
ton. They came to the surface
at New-Orleans, where Banks
supersedes Gen. Butler, the latter
reporting at once at Washington,
where, i is said, (and in this Of
fee devoutly hoped), new and
more active field is to be assigned
him. Wherever Gen. Butler has
operated he has done the work he
was sent to do; sometimes, per-
haps, n little more; but he always
"ampliiied'' in the right direction.
Long live Gen. Butter.
Banks is true man, and may
perhaps be relied upon to main
tain the peace at New-Orleans
that Butler has conquered" and
established. But if he maintains
il as effectively and as inexpcn-
sively as Gen. b., we shall be
pleased and a little deceived.
Gen. Banks's jurisdiction ex-
tends to the State of Texas, un-
der the new arrangement, 'and he
has issued a scholastic, not to say
bombastic, proclamation. Hear
the closing paragraphs:
The Valley of the Mississippi
is the chosen seat OF population,
product and power on this CONT
nent. In a few years 5000 QUO
people, unsurpassed in material
resources and capacity for war
will swarm upon its fertile rivers,
Those who assume 10 set con
ditions upon their exodus to the
Gulf, count upon a power moi
given to man. The country
washed by the waters o. the Ohio,
the Missouri and the Mississippi,
can never be permanently sever
ed. Ii one generation basely bar
tiers away its rights, immortal
honors will rest upon another
that reclaims them. Let it new
er be said either, that the East
and West may be separated
Thirty days distance from the
markets of Europe may satisfy
the wants of Louisiana and Ar
kansas, but il will not answer the
demands of Illinois and Ohio
The Valley of the Mississippi
will have its Geltas upon the At
lantic. The physical force OF
the West will debouche upon
its shores with n power as resist
less as the torrents OF It's giant
rivers. This country cannot be
permanently divided. Ceaseless
wars may drain its blood and
treasure; domestic tyrants or
foreign foes may grasp the scepter
OF its power, but its destiny will
remain unchanged. 1t will still
be united. God has ordained it.
What avails, then, the destruc-
ton Of the best Government ev-
or devised by man, the seli-adiust-
ing. self-correcting Constitution
of the United States.
People OF the Southwest, why
not accept the conditions impo-
sed by the imperious necessities
Of geographical confguraticn and
commercial supremacy, and re-
establish your ancient prosperity
and renown? why not become the
founders of States, which as the
entrepots and depots of your own
central and upper valleys may
stand in the afliuence of their re-
sources without superior, and in
the privileges of the people,
without a peer among the nations
of the earth?

may interrupt the regular progress
of the disease.
On the fourth day from The on
set Of the fever, and in regular,
benign cases, the peculiar rash
makes It's appearance on the face
and upper parts of the body, and
gradually extends itself to the
lower extremities. In the kind
of cases we are now considering,
the color o. the rash is essentially
red, and the general symptoms
are very much ameliorated upon
It's appearance.
In common regular cases in
healthy subjects, very little more
than rational hygienic manage
ment is called for in the treat
ment. A morbid poison has en-
tered and vitiated the blood by a
kind o. zvmotic or fermentive ac-
ton, but nature will eliminate
the product if the subject has
stamina enough, ard is not too
much interlered with. And,
what is most agreeable about the
whole matter Is, that such a
change is wrought in the blood
as to render the patient insuscep-
tible to the action of the poison
again, for long time at least.
and mostly for life.
The patient with Measles, no
matter how light the attack, nor
at what period of the year, had
better be confined to the house
and kept at rest. Nature has an
important work to do and should
not be taxed with much else.
Let his apartment, if it may be
so, be as large and well ventila-
Ted as may be, but let anything
| like a stream of air be avoided,
and let the temperature be just
comfortable. Cold treatment
does not suit Measles so well as
some of the stages of Small. pox
and Scarlet Fever. There is too
much tendency to lung difficulty:
and this IS one reason why our
boys have suffered so severely in
camp.
The patients diet should be
light, simple, fluid. Fruits, bak-
ed apples. and the like, suit well
in most cases, and may exert a
favorable and, in many cases, ne
ceSsary action on the bowels; but
if dlarraca prevail in the ease.
they will be found Objectionable.
The drinks may be Of the tenn
perature Of the room in the hight
OF the fever, but had better be
warm toward the time the erup-
ton should appear, in most cases.
1t is very desirable to see a moist
ened condition Of the skin at the
commencement of the eruptivc
stage, as such cases nearly always
do well. but extreme measures TO
produce it are not to be advised.
a warm bath, or the vapor bath,
NAV be reSOrtcd TO in some tardy
cases, and slnapisms are some
times employed with benefit, but
in all severe, or complicated ca
ses, physician should be con-
suited.
The greatest danger in Measles
is to the lungs anil air passages.
In young children this sometimes
assumes the form of Group, and is
very fatal complication. In
older subjects, pneumonia, or in
flammation of the lungs, often
supervenes, and is one of the very
worst casualties. These are but
a few of the most common sequel
lac of the disease, and we will
only hold the reader to remark,
in conclusion, that the GONZALES
cence is almost as critical peri
Cd as any in It's course. The
patient should re-enter the outer
world with much care and pru-
Al.

MEASLES.

SAoN9 ~ " MN A~SA - i'Nis We
of the western hemisphere are
indebted to the eastern side OF
our globe for what has not inapt-
ly been termed "grisly troop
of infectious maladies that usu-
ally pass under the name of er-
GRthemGtG, or eruptive fevers.
THESE are the well known, and,
in the nursery, everlastingly
dreaded trio, Smallpox, Scarlet
Fever and Measles. They seem
to have had a common orr.
gin sPme time about the fifth or
sixth century on the shores of
the Red Sea, and to have first
spread over the coasts of Arabia
and Abysslnia, and thence to have
been gradually disseminated over
the old world and new.
Il is matter of surprise now,
even to the most casual observer,
that these diseases, now so dis.
similar, should have been at first
looked upon as constituting a sin
gle malady. They were all erup-
tive, and each was looked upon
as a differing degree of the same
disease. Closer observation,
however, soon evolved striking
differences in the nature of the
diseases, and experience soon dis.
covered very dissimilar indica-
tons for treatment.
These diseases are of different
characters, also as TO their sever
ity and prevalence. Smallpox,
before the day Of Jenner, was the
great scourge of the world. 1t
is now, by vaccination, held very
much in abeyance, and might
be almost robbed of its terrors.
We have no such mode OF super
seding the other members of the
family, but fortunately Scarlet
Fever is not so dangerous to life
as Smallpox nor 50 universal
perhaps not so contagious as Ell
Their this last or Measles. Per-
haps a majority Of US escape
! Scarlet Fever. while it falls to
the lot OF very few to pass thro'
life without making the acquaint-
ance of It's milder associate
That is to say we, nearly all Of
us at one time In life or another.
"cdtch the MeasleS," and rs a
general thing the earlier in life
we get through the dread OF it
the better.
These remarks are being writ
ten at this timc because the dis
ease under discussion is rife in
many OF the divisions Of our ar
my, and is being taken, by sick
soldiers returning home to almost
every neighborhood of the coun-
try. It is now prevailing in a
somewhat more malignant form
than usual-ior, though mild in
It's character, it is considerably
modified by the conditions under
which it makes its attack in
many neishborhoods in our own
county; end, to drop further gen.
eralitIes, we will just give a briel
outline of the characteristics Of
the disease, and end with a few
hints on It's hygienic manage
ment.
SO far as we can tell, Measles
always comes by contagion.-
Some hooks and corners OF the
world il has been very slow to
! reach, and it is believed to be yet
unknown in a few detached COM
munities at Australia and Van
Dieman's Land. Alter exposure
to the contagion the subject may
pass a week or ten days in his
usual health. After this, the mi
asm having had time to leaven
the whole lump, the patient be-
gins to droop. He is chilly and
