The Story county Egis states that
ll6 sheep in that county belonging to
Col. John Scott of the 32d Regiment,
were killed a few nights since by
dogs. Still there are plenty Of folks
who think that any Legislation to pro,
tect sheep from the ravages of dogs
is not only superauous but wicked.
The good name and fame of several
excellent Legislators in this State
were spoiled for all eternity. because
these Legislators had the temerity to
vote for a law against sheep-kiIling
dogs all of which proves that dogs
are not only capable of killing sheep,
but they are capable, also. of ruining
the political regulations of good and
wise men.-Des MONIES Register.

There is q Northumberland story

There is q well-authenticated story,
in private circles, that, few months
ago, when the rebel rams were about
ready to leave Liverpool, and our af.
fairs with England were most fearful
and threatening, President Lincoln
wrote personal, private letter to
Queen Victoria, on the subject and
from its reception by her dates the
new and more just policy of the Eng.
fish Government towards US. A sin.
gular and pleasant bit of political his

From the Far North.

A despatch from st. Paul to the Chi.
cago Tribune says Major Hatch reach.
cd Pembina with his battalion on the
18th Of November. The distance
marched from st. Paul is 463 miles.
The trip occupied forty days, twenty.
five of which were spent in marching
to Georgetown, one hundred and fifty
miles this side of Pembina. Their
hay and grain gave out. and the mules
were put on half rations Of hominy,
and the horses were compelled to get
their living by grazing, or die. The
snow was from six to twelve inches
deep, and the little grass that could
be found was dry and frozen. The
tree tops were finally cut and fed to
the horses. Two hundred and forty.
nine horses and twenty six mules died
on the route, leaving but one hundred
and tbirty-seven in the battalion. The
animals were still dying, aud as moth
ing but poor hay can be obtained at
Pembina. the battalion bids fair to be
an infantry force by spring, and Of
course useless in fighting Indians.
These horses were a swindle on the
Government which has already lost
thirty thousand dollars by their pur-
chase. Two thousand Sioux are re.
ported at Turtle Mountain. They sent
word to Pembina that they were wait.
ing for Major Hatch's supplies to ar
rive, when they would come and take
them, as they were greatly in need of
provisions. They may, indeed, make
an attack upon the post during the
winter.

To the Public as being
THE MOST PERFECT.
And adapted to more different kinds of work
than any other Sewing Machine
now in use.
Years have been spent in their perfection.
as the company were determined not to put
their Machines into market until thew could
sustain the assertion which they now make,
that they are
The Best in the World!
The great quantity of worthless Sewing
Machines that have been palmed off upon the
unsuspeeting public by those without charac-
ter, from the fact that they were sold nj a
low price, IL surprising and in view of this
state OF things, we have made it a long. nm
tiring study to produce a machine that could
in no way he classed among them, and finally
to lead the van of first class Sewing Machines
now in use. An intelligent examination of
its merits will show that we have accomplish
ed Our oSnject.
LIST. Some of the valuable features of this
Machine over all others: Its reversible feed,
feeding either to the right or left !; its perfect
reliability, never skipping stitches and the
making Of four different stitches for the yari.
Gus kinds of work the operator NAV wish 10
do.
ID. 1t is almost noiseless-runs yery fast
and the change of the feed is made whilst the
machine is in motion.
Sd. 1t makes the lock stitch. which has
been considered heretofore by an almost uni.
versal verdict, as the only reliable one made.
We add to that the double lock, which makes
il doubly sure the half and full knot stitches,
being perfect knot to every stitch, which is
more durable than can he made by any other
machine, or by hand, and in all cases leaving
the stitches on both sides of the work alike.
The feed may be reversed at any point desired
arithom stopping the Machine.
Changes for the various stitches may be
made while the machine is in motion.
Its stitches are the wonder to all.
The beauty of it is unsurpassed.
No other covers SO large a range of work.
Sews light and heavy fabrics with equal
facility
The work will feed either to the right o,
left
Runs quietly, sews rapidly.
No difficulty experienced in sewing across
Needle more readily adjusted than in any

BITTERS. ~
TIME Undersigned would respectfully tender
l. his thanks to the people of Northern
Iowa for their liberal patronage during the
brief period the above named medicine has
been before the public. The high price of
glass and other material used, together with
the direct government tax, has compelled
me to advance the price of my medicine. This
necessity 1 regret no less than the intelligent
public who assure me of their confidence in
the healing virtue of my bitters by the con.
tinuance of their patronage since the advance
in price.
am now happy to assure my customers
and the public that the advance in the price
of my medicine does not go into my pocket
but is deposited in the government treasury to
do its part towards subduing the rebellion

Keep these Bitters in Your
Family!
If you have symptoms of Dyspepsia take
them freely. In ordinary cases table spoon
full is dose, but much larger quantity can
be taken with safety. The dose should be
regulated to agree with your nervous system.
Hardly any two cases are alike in this respect.

Its exhilarating properties are not exces.

country is flooded under the names of Cordial
Gins, Schiedam Schnaps, Roback's Bitters, etc.
containing few medicinal virtues of any value,
and which are intended merely as an evasion
OF restrictive Maine Laws but instead of so
large proportion of alcohol,
These Bittcrs derive their Stimu-
