HARPER's WEEKLY has beyond ques-
ton earned for itselfa right to its title,
is it "a complete pictorial history of the
times; )" but as literary and family
newspaper it has few equals and no SUI
periors in the United States. It's poit-
ical articles from the pen of George Will
liam Curtis are models in their class,
and treat of all prominent political ques-
tons in an eminently comprehensive
and satisfactory manner. Harper's
Weekly is published by Harper & Broth

scribers at 81 per year.

THE TEMPERANCE LECTURE by c. G.
|Truesdcl on Monday evening was we'll
attended. Mr.. Truesdel always has full
houses, because he possesses the ability
10 interest, entertain and instruct an
audience; and his lecture here was no
exception to the general rule, either as
regards attendance or interest. A choir,
improvised for the o ccasion, enlivcned
the exercises with several songs, pleas
ant addition to any evenings pro-
gram1Ie.r
The lecturer, who has long been con-
sidered very Paul among the temper
ance apostles Of Iowa, astonished some
Of the disciples hereabouts by taking the
ground that We, In Iowa, have all the
law that We need for the most effectual
suppression Of intemperance. In this
connection he alluded to the act Of the
last Assembly giving Incorporated towns
the power to regulate the sale Of beer,
wine, &C., within their corporate limits.
Some q the citizens Of Upton, where
the sale of beer has been prohibited un-
der the act referred to, might like to be
Informed, since tive have all the law
We need" by what law they can reach
the flourishing beer saloon that is situ-
ated Just outside the limits of tile corpo-
ration-a place where mere boys have
obtained that which made them drunk
and disorderly. Until this question is
satisfactorily answered, we are inclined
to think that some of our citizens will
not believe we have law enough. There
is, however, no doubt but that a change
Of public opinion upon the temperance
question is as necessary to the good of
the cause aud will prove as effective as
any aud all legislation. When the feel
Ing throughout society is such that in
temperance will rank, as it should do,
with arson, theft, robbery and other
crimes against ones self and his fellows,
then shall we see the cause Of temper
anee prospecting rs never before.

We give his own words, in the pure
Danish Ger fuld af Ham mod Danmark,
diets Regjering og de herverende DAN
ske fra Moderlandet." He-the prosecu-
tor-goes on to say, that the articles are
of a tendency to create excitement and
agitation among the lower and uninform-
ed portion of the population. How can
he make that out, when his pamphlet of
1845 did not cause Excitement" and
'~'agitation." Here are the prosecutors
words in the pure Danish "Hensigt med
disse Artikler kun kan vere at fremkalde
Ophidselse og Agitation hos den Iavere
mere ukyndige Deel af Befolkningen, og
dette er t~ilvisset lykket ham," Well!
We have sympathy for all, without ex-
ception, whether of rank or class and
we must study the interest Of every mem
Der OF this community, and not as Law

We do respect author ity and submission,
and acknowledge, that there are many
Danish gentlemen in this community
perfect gentlemen. That our prosecutor,
in pure Danish, should say cog dette err

he has certainly succeeded; or may he
something else in other words he for
gets the days of yore, when these very
people, Of whom he talks, were, doubt
less, his entire support. We will not say
more to-day but will make some more
remarks in our next. We conclude by
saying: "Bully for the Americans"

his shoulders by declaring that he could not
oppose the wishes of the Ministry. This
statement is perfectly wrong. The Co
v%ernor's remarks 10 the Council on that
subject will be found in the st. Croix Avis
for the Goth Of April 1864 No. "a; it will
be seen that he advised the Council "to
take great care in promoting a proposal,
the aim Of which was to express a sharp
criticism on the manner in which the
Royal Offices are filled and for which the
Home Government is responsible. He
was able to declare, that both the local
Government when recommending any In
divldual for appointment in an Office, as
well as the Home Government when APP
pointing any one in a vacant situation,
constantly and exclusively look to what
requirements are necessary for the good
of the service and for the proper admins
tration of the Office. He furthermore
observed that "~certain situations, f. i. in
the Custom Department here, are of such
a nature, that it could not be considered
right in principle to appoint any one in
them who was born and brought up in
the same place where the situation is"
There is certainly every reason to be-
lieve that the Governors remarks on the
said occasion have been fully substantial
ted in the present instance, and that Mr..
Anthem, whose studies of the political
sciences and service in the Ministerial
Department. for the Custom-affairs in Den
mark, and whose several appointments to
act as deputy Collector of Customs in
different provinsial towns Of Denmark
render him peculiarly qualified to the
post, will be able to assist the Govern
ment in the revision of the rules and re-
gulations relating TO the CUSTOM Depart
ment here.

THE LIFE BONUS of this Company, at

THE LIFE BONUS of this Company, at
last valuation, August, 1868, averaged 46 per
cent of the Premiums paid, in some cases
rising to 65, 70, and even IS per cent. Sub
stantial benefits have therefore been conferred
on its Assures, and as the Life Liabilities
are valued on the principle of net Premiums,
assuming only 3 per cent. interest-(Ae outside
expenses chargeaWc to tile Life Department
for the General Management Of the Company
being specially limited By the Deed Of Settlement
to 10 per cent. Of tie net Life income)- there is
every reason to expect equally good Bonuses
