The Auditor Of State, M Elliott. sends
us, says the Des Moines Register, volua.
bic item Of information According 10 it
the number Of children 10 the State III
1864 between five anu twenty one years of
age, was 1880. The number in 1865 is
205, 4o6-ihcrease, l3,46o. The amount
Of interest collected on the school fund in
1864 was s!35 800 IS; in 1865, sl3S. 500.
Amount Of interest on the fund delinquent
in 1864, 1867, 400 IS: in 1865, 1888 $50
So it appears that there are thirteen thous
and four hundred aud sixty nine moro
children in the State than there was this
time last year! What prolific people |!

No thinking man can for a nomen:

inspired by the dread Of financial crisis

Inundated by a volumn Of currency in

The different articles Of merchandise have

But the late rapid abs orb, ion Of the sur.

desire - avoid taxation from which ~.

has in great measure drained the money
market Of its excess, and by divert;ng it
from tho channels Of ,,ade and specua

gold and consequent falling Off in the
price Of every hing Of which gold is the
s.andar Of value
This sudden financial! revolution mus,
b disastrous in its consequences to many.
Those that have bought at prices Of

cell at greatly reduced figures below first

upon credit the consequences will be still

A GENUINE REBEL FROM THE SUNNY SoUrB.
Elk Governor Westcott, now refugee at
Montreal, favors the extension Of the suffrage
TO the freedmen Of the South. They are made
free, be says; universal freedom has been pro-
claimed. and it is now a qualification to deny
them the right TO vote. He does not believe
they will vote with their former masters, but
they will give the South larger basis Of rep
resentatiou, and raise her in importance in the
nation. He is peculiarly bitter on the Demo
cratic party. They are towards and traitors
too, be says and be will never again in his life,
if be votes at all, vote for Democrat. He
will vote for none but Republicans. There is
no issue now, be argues. between the South
and the Republicans. Slavery is gone-seces-
sion is forever dead. The South should now
unite in keeping the Republican party 10
power, and in preventing the restoration OF
Democratic ascendaDcy.

ORIGIN OF THE BoSxET-The first bonnet
worn in England was brought from Italy in the
reign of Queen Elizabeth. and its form was a
compromise between the present Italian hat
and French hood The materials employed in
constructing these head ornaments were Grim
son satin. elaborately embroidered, cloth of
gold, and similar rich materials. The Leg
horn bat, with perpendicular crown and wide
brim standing out far around the face, was the
FIRST legitimate bonnet worn, and this appeared
long after Queen Elzabeih's time. 1t was
trimmed with artificial flowers and immense
bows of ribbons. Our present neat and ex
quisitively delicate and tasteful head.covering
is but modification Of this huge affair. which
not very many years back was 50 universally
