When the South seeded, and war re-
suited, the North declared it's purpose to
maintain the integrity of the Union. 10
keep the States to their allegiance to the
General Government. Congress, 10y an
almost unanimous resolution, said that
this was the purpose, and the only pur-
pose Of the war. And in this, Congress
was sustained. Now, Congress and the
Republican party say, that the States
which seeded. are not States in the Union,
but conquered territory. The original
theory is abandoned, and new policy set
up. That policy sets aside the Constitu,
ton, and places in its stead ths will OF
Congress. l. Herald.

By returns of the United States Asses
sor, we notice that the sales of Giles Bro

with their New York and Western houses,
are equal to any similar in New York.
This speaks well for the rapid growth OF
Chicago in matters of taste and luxury,
and for the established reputation of the
firm.
But few persons are willing to trust to
their own knowledge Of metals or to their
own taste, in buying a watch or valuable
article of jewelry, or silver-plate even,
consequently reliable ieweler is as neces-
sary to those who indulge in such Injuries
as family physician, and quack in the
medicine. For this reason have grown up
such palatial establishments as Ball, Black
& Co., Tiffany & Co., in New York. Bailey,
of Philadelphia: and equally well known,
though not representing as many millions,
Giles Bro. e. Co., of Chicago. The cstab.
lished reputation of such houses is II sort
of protection againt the mountebank and
cheep jewelry houses.
The above is from the Chicago Journal.

In Illinois there is no division. In Iowa

The above extract is from the old polit.

time it was published the Journal well
knew that nearly one half OF the radical
party of the 81. District of Iowa was
boldly and zealously opposing Mr.. Allison.
