FATAL ACClDENT.-Last Monday be-
tween and 7 o'clock, p. M, the little son
of Mr.. Ryder, residing in the southeast
ern part of Decorah,- "a boy about four
years of age-in the absence of his moth
err, obtained possession of a loaded revolv-
er and while playing with it discharged it.
The ball entered the body near the naval,
passed through the bowels and lodged un-
der the skin, on the left side of the spinal
column. DR.. Green was called as soon as
possible, and cared for the little sufferer,
dressing the wounds, extracting the ball,
and relieving him as much as possible
There was little bleeding to the wound,
and evidences that internal bleeding was
taking place. The little fellow fingered
until Wednesday morning and died. The
revolver is one of the smallest made and
the ball not as large as buckshot. 1t was
kept on the top of a cupboard, from which
the boy got it by climbing upon chair
After the accident he again climbed up the
chair, put back the revolver, and then went
and laid down in bed, where the mother
found him when she returned.
There is lesson to be drawn from this
accident If a revolver is needed-whicll
is seldom the case-in house, too much
care cannot be used in keeping it where it
will not fall into the hands of children
The practice of keeping such articles is
pernicious, but if people will keep them,
let it be with the utmost cure and eau

Dem ocratic COnven ton.

Democratic Convention.
We received the official of our Conven-
ton proceeding too late for this issue
CHARLES MASON, was nominated for Gov.
and all know he is one of the ablcst men
of the State. Below will be found the
platform. Our TINES is not regarded as
orthodox every time and it doesn't hurt
our feelings to wait a day or two before
indorsing it in toto. This paper belongs to
ANDRIcK & RICHARDSON. More when we
get it.
The committee on resolutions reported
the following, which. after thorough dis
cussion, were adopted:
Resolved, That the maintenance invio-
late of the rights of the states, and espe-
cially of the right of each state to order
and control its own domestic institutions
according to its own judgement, exclusive
ly, is essential to the balance Of power on
which the perfection and endurance of our
political fabric depends.
2. That we believe state has the right
to regulate the elective franchise for itself,
and that we, as citizens of Iowa, are OPP
posed to striking the word white out Of
our state constitution.
3. That the existing tariff laws are un-
just and heavily burthensome to the agri-
cultural states, without being of cores
ponding benefit to the government, and
only of advantage to few manufacturing
states, and should be repealed or greatly
modified.
4. That all classes of property should
pay proportionate rate towards defray-
ing the expenses of the government. We
are, therefore, in favor of taxing govern
ment bonds the same as other property.
5. That we are in favor of repeating the
present prohibitory liquor law of this state,
and in favor of enacting a well regulated
License law in lieu thereof.
6. That we are in favor of an amend
ment to the constitution of our state, Civ
ing to foreigners the elective franchise,
after they have declared their intention
to become citizens of the United States,
and have resided in the state one year.
7. That we demand of our public Off
GERS in the state Of Iowa and the United
States, the strictest economy in order to
reduce the present burdensome taxation,
and we dcnounce with severest terms the
prohigacy, corruption and knavery of our
State officers and of Congress.
8. That the denial of the right of repre-
sentation to ten states of the Union, thro'
the odious military reconstruction act, in
violation of the constitution, should meet
with the unqualified opposition of every
good citizen.

MCGREGOR, july l. 1867.

.Messrs. ZSditOrs-Will you please en-
tighten the public as to when the num-
Der of guns consisting n Federal Salute
was changed to 81. "Time was" when
q Federal Salute was composed of thir-
teen guns-a national salute of the
same number of guns as there were
States in the Union. This is obvious.
Thirteen States ratified and adopted
the Constitution of the u. S., July
4th, 1776. {: Eds The thirteen stripes
in our GLORIOUS old flag" denoted the
federation of those thirteen states,
while a star for each State was en-
blematic of our national greatness,
BY our 4th of July posters we are in
formed there will be "a salute of one
gun ut daybreak, a salute of thirteen
guns at sunrise, and a Federal Salute
OF Misty-seUen guns ut nOOn," &C., &C.
Is this modern innovation creeping
in upon our ''time-honOred" customs,
or has some Over-zealous and patriotic
individual endeavored to blend the
Federal and National Salutes in one?
Yours, &C., X. CENTRIC.
1t may not have occurred to our cor
respondent that another inconsistency
in the number Of guns to be fired, is
the fact that ten States of what was
once the Union are now kept out of
political participation with us, merely
to accommodate Radicalism and to
perpetuate the power to tyranize and
to steal. Why not fire $40?

Immediately under our own observation
there is remedy for the striped or cucum-
Der bug. Our next ncighbor Mr.. Choate
was told to put splinters or pieces of red
cedar about his vines and since that not a
bug has been seen. Red cedar is death on

Col. MERRILL.-On being introduced to
the Convention which gave our neighbor
the nomination for Governor, he made the
following neat little speech. We, in COM
mon with many others, irrespective Of par
ty, fail to see any principles" in the

ter about that-thc Col. is disposed to DO
his best to accommodate the party whose
etandard-bearer he is, and we insist that
his speech is good one-all that is neces-
sary in the way Of public acceptance. AS
it is intimated by O'Conner, the nominee
for Atty General, that the Col. will stump
