Hsxar CLAY DEAN spoke Il Albia On the
z9sh ins. From thst point be soss adssto
instruct the people Of the northern counties
how to vote. A convention Of the Denoc-
racy was held in the city Of Chicago in 1854.
II was . memorable nvention-memorsbls
for its treason, its cowardics, and it, iniamy.
Dean, with large delegation Of the faithful
from Iowa, vas there, and be made speech,
the following being AZ extract therefrom:
"In tell ron about JET. Davis. Abe
Lincoln has little difficulty with him, and
make it . rule never 70 interfere with black
guards. Thsrs never va osims perpetrs.
ted in the history Of tho world that has pot
had ito exact counterpart in the conduct Of
Mr.. LINCOLN. Abe Lincoln il . liar and .
perjuref, and has petit larceny written oil
to the sole of his foot"
From the Des Moinss TO the Gulf, and
from the extreme Western border of Texas
to the capital Of the nation, are strswn the
bones OF Iowa's sons, Who fell in defence of
the dear old Aag," and in view Of the
great sacrifices made and endured BY Iowa's
cit;seus, il mnst be regarded - : burning
shame, gross insult, to parade the uttersr
Of the above sentiments before Iowa audi-
enees. But the people Of lows arc for>
bearing people, and it is perhaps best to
have Dean bloyiate during the campaign to
illustrate how deeply some men can wallow
in the filth of treason. But, o, what re-
buke is in waiting for him snd his" backers"
when the loyalty of Iowa march to the ballot
box. Give Clay Dean and Brick Pomeroy
every chance and every opportunity to "blow
their bugles in Iowa. They will receive
such an answering blast on election day ~
will convince them that Iowa people regard
them with the most unuttersble loathing and
contempt.

A NIGHT DREss.--Peeuliar things
sometimes happen to great men
more peculiar things sometimes over
take would be great men.
An incident of a peculiar char
acter happened to one of the lat
ter class, some time ago, in Wood
county. An individual of the
"speechifying" order happened in
that county, at a certain time, and
was overtaken by darkness. OF
course he had to seek place to court
the arms of Morpheus. The people
where he applied, knowing him, were
glad to accommodate him with O
nights lodging, expecting to be re-
munerated with words Of wisdom
from his oracular lips. Unfortunate
ly they had no best" sleeping room
and had to allow him the use Of a
daughters room--the usual occu
pant Of which was buxom lass Of
nineteen summers, named Caroline
The room was 'slicked up in short
order, and at the proper time--after
listening to ruby drops Of wisdom
from the lips Of the guest--the fami
ly, consisting of boy of six besides
the others, and the soiourner retired
went to bed. At the usual time
for breakfast the family and the guest
met at the table. After the usua
compliments of the morning were
passed, and the sweetness IF thei-
visitors nights rest was fully settled
by his assuring them that he never
slept better, the family-particularly
the young lady--were somewhat star
tied by being thanked for furnishing
a night shirt. 81 neglected, careless
ly," said he "to bring along a night
garment, but found that you had
kindly furnished me one,--a kind
ness that will not be forgotten soon
and one of the occasional flowers that
1 sometimes find strewed through
Life's rough path" Being In earn
est and supposing he had spoken a
fowery sentence that would make an
upon his hearers, his
ideas of propriety were somewhat
startled by the boys speaking up in
the shrill tones Of youth-"O. that's
a hunky old joke on you-ha! ha!I
ha that was Carries night dress"
The young gent was Immediately
led from the table, but that did not
hinder the guest being somewhat
chagrined.

BARNUM's MUsEuM.-It is rumored
in well informed circles that Barnum
stated few days ago, that he had at
last discovered the greatest curiosity
he had ever heard of in his life. SUI
ering from a severe cold, and fearful
of its termination in a pulmonary
affection, he stepped into drug store
and asked the proprietor to give him
something which he knew would af-
ford him immediate relief. The gen.
tleman thus applied to handed him a
neat looking package, which he as
sured him was the only article he
could endorse as answering all the
requirements in such severe cases.
Returning to his office Mr.. Bar
unm took the medicine according to
directions, and in less than twelve
hours found himself entirely recov-
cred. The case was so remarkable
that Barnum caused the bottle placed
in a handsome glass case, and put in
a conspicuous place in his Mus
cum appropriately marked as follows:
THE greatest wonder OF the age a
medicine that performes all it prom
ises." On investigation this was
found to be a bottle of "Dr. J.W.
Poland's White Pine Compound" for
the cure Of Cough, Colds, Bronchitis,
Lung affections and all diseases of
the Bladder and Kidneys. Sold by
Jail druggists
