SICKNEss.-W hear of a good deal
of sickness in various parts of the State.
The long continued hot, damp weather
has been unfayorable 10 health. And as
we may soon expec: great changes in the
temperature, much care should be taken
in regard to diet and clothing. Children
and feeble persons especially, should be
cautioned about exposing themselves to
cold and dampness, and to irregularty
or excess in eating and drinking. Every
one should learn the laws of health for
himself and perseveringly and faithfully
put them in practice. A proper attention
to this subject would save pain, medicine
and Doc or bills. "a grain of proven
ton is worth pound of cure"

We have not ceased to regret the
action of the Republican State Con-
vention, held at Des Moines on the
18th Of June. At that time we Were
Of the opinion that a portion if not all
Of those nominations ought not to have
been made. Gen. Warren and Judge
Williams were both representative
men," and should have been the nomi-
nees. They were thrown aside to make
room for men who would more readily
serve the purposes of politicians. In
the case Of Judge Williams, especial
", this was done in way and man
ner that was insulting to the Northern
part Of the State. We did not then,
nor do we now, feel in honor bound to
support that ticket, and we owe nei-
Their duty, friendship or respect to the
men who dictated the nominations.
We place at the head of our paper
to-day the ticket then nominated, and
wish it distinctly understood that our
reasons for 80 doing are these:
We believe that loyalty and patriot
ism should rise above all other ques-
tions. We believe that the Govern
ment needs all possible aid of whatev-
er kind. Our instincts, our education,
our love of country and our lifelong
principles, all forbid our voting the
ticket nominated at Des Moines on the
9Th Of July. No man, who is honest
y, sincerely and earnestly interested
in the safety and preservation of the
Union, can at this time remain neutral.
The ticket nominated June 18th is
based upon q platform Of loyalty, and
between that and the one Of the 9Th Of
July we must choose.
For these reasons, then, and not be-
cause we are better satisfied, not be
cause our indignation has cooled, not
because we have discovered new at
fractions in the ticket, do we place
that ticket at the head of our columns
and determine to support it and urge
Others to support it.

The Mississippi Open.

According to the New Orleans Era
of the 18th ult., there was great ex-
element in that city caused by the
arrival at the wharf of the steamer
Imperial, an old N. o. boat. from
St. Louis. A correspondent says:
She came down freightcd with some
600 head Of cattle, part of large haul
that was made at Natchez, o short
time ago. She had pleasant, unmo-
Tested trip all the way down, and re-
ported the river perfectly quiet be-
tween this and st. Louis.
The Imperial is an immense, SNOWY
vessel-one of the first class river
steamers, which completely dwarfs the
Laurel Hill. Empire Parish, and 9TH
ers that we have been accustomed to
look upon as leviathans. But it was
not her size and fine equipments which
impressed the eager multitndes who
throDged to see her T; it was the fact
that she was the first freight boat
which had ventured down the Missis.
sippi since the fall of Vicksburg and
Port Hudson, and every one who ga.
zed upon the proud form saw in her
the embodiment of awakened CON-
merce with the Mississippi Valley.
She staid in New Orleans just long
enough to receive the greeting of hun
dreds, and then went on to Carrolton,
where she unloaded her living freight.
The speedy arrival of this vessel
here-immediately following the cap
ture of the rebel stronghold--tells
significant story of the downfall of the
rebel army. Let commerce once re-
sumo her accustomed channels, and
all the eloquence of Belial himself will
notpersuade the people of the South to
continue the horrid pastime of cutting
their brothers. throats-for what ?
That JEFF. Davis and his handful of wi
" oligarchs shall retain power to
CONT their heads of human cattle, and
build upon this continent q temple of
despotism on the ruins Of human lib
erty.

IF we examine attentively the &C.
currences of the last few weeks, we
shall find many proofs to show tina,
| the instruction which has just been
put down in New York was only par,
of q great scheme in which conspira.
tors in the Free States were engaged,
in concert with their rebel allies, to
excite general instruction through
the North. The invasion of Pennsylva'
MIA by Lee, and Of Indiana by Morgan,
were the prcliminaries of the at
tempt. The conspirators counted on
the success Of Lee they expected in
that case to maintain themselves in
New York, to throw all public affairs
into cofusion, and to receive any as
sistance they might require from the
victorious rebel army. Morgan, at
the same time, stood ready to help
mutinous demonstration in Indiana
and Ohio. The defeat of Lee gave the
first serious blow to the conspiracy /;
but the attempt was still made. Nor.
gan performed his part of the general
plan, and was caught T; the agents of
Davis in New York had gone too far
to be able to rccede, and their tools,
impatient for the pillage they had been
promised. broke loose and began to
commit all the excuses for which
doubtless they had been promised i'm
punity by their secret leaders.
At the same time, by telegraph and
by mail, the conspirators began to
spread reports calculated to produce
the belief that there was. indeed. a
general instruction throughout the
Free States. At several points they
excited mobs, but these were quickly
put down but most of the reports o.
riots proved to be false--mere inven.
tios Of the rebel agents, intended tt
fill the city and the country with dis
trust and alarm.
| The plot has failed, and is now ex
posed. The proslavery presses AM
politicians of the Free States hav
once more tried to bring the countr,
under the yoke Of the rebellious slave
holders they have once more shown
their inability to appreciate the spiri
of free people and their employer

Southern principles has been falsifi
ed by the event, from the days aftel
Sumpter when the Charleston Mercnr,
cried out in dismay, Where are our
friends in the North ;" and found none
to speak, to the last disappoi ntment.
The rebels will begin to understand,
by and by, that the people of the Free
States mean to preserve this Govern
ment and Union and that any
rogue or fool who writes to Richmond
that he aud his helpers can prod NC,
