DIED..

At the residence of Mr.. Alden, of McGregor, Friday
last, at 600 A. NJ, CALEB SOUTHMAYD, aged about
As years.
Ills disease was contraction Of the stomach from
dyspepsia or indigestion. He was buried Ivy the au-
th%orities, but on examipation Of his papers there
were found $500 in money. We learn he declined to
pay Mr.. Alden for nursing him several weeks, "be-
cause he had 10 money! Ills life was misery, and,
sad as it may sound, We believe his death brought no
tear of sorrow to a human heart. 'Tis said the grave
should bury all faults. but it is not wrong to war;.

them from the ignoble deeds of the dead.

Col. Barnes, Of the Dubuque Times, on
Saturday last uttered a gross libel on Sem
ator Doolittle who spoke to the Democracy
on the day before. 1t was too false to
demand attention, except. for the reason
that the Times is the organ of Allison an d
North Iowa ~radicalism. So universal was
the denunciation of it by gentlemen of
both parties that Barnes took it back in a
most humiliating manner on the day fol-
lowing. Mr.. BowxAN, the irrepressible
editor of the Herald, addressed Barnes
requesting a disclaimer or IN. apology.
Barnes did notice the letter of Mr.. Bow
man and Bowman then excoriated Barnes,
without mercy, in the Herald of the 9th.
We will refer more fully in our next issue.

Our over-thc-r river republican neighbors
of Sd Wisconsin district have nominated
Hon. Amasa Cobb for representative to
congress. MIR. Cobb is opposed to bond

for paying the 5x2O, as the law directs, in

For that reason the RAIDS. of that district

"Gen. Longstreet, one Of the ablcst rebel
generals supports Grant and Colfax and
will use his influence to socure their cleo

We believe Gov. Joe Brown of Georgia,

ed southern infamy called the "Ander-

Chicago Convention, made a speech for
Grant and Colfax, confessed his beastly
malignity, pledged himself to Radicalism
and received absolution at the hands of
j. Young Scammon, Gov. Oglesby, Gen.

negroes and foreigners, in the following

"The Democrats are making a great

tranquil, but, either forgetful of or disregarding

A REMARKABLE SroRY.--During the year
1864. when the hostile forces were struggling for
the supremacy in and around Winchester, Mr..
-- went to Maj. Parsons, United States pro-
yost marshal, and applied for safeguard. Gen.
Fessenden was called on to fill tho demand,
which he did by detailing for this duty Mr.
John -, OF the I'd New York cavalry, tO
whom he issued imperative orders to remain UNI
til no was relieved by proper authority. W.
stood manfully by his post. The tide of battle
surged about him, but his was charmed life,
for no had that authority which saved him from
molestation by the "rebs." The war closed, but
with 1t came no order to the sentinel and faith.
full TO the trust confded to him. he is still at his
post OF duty! Tho case has been reported to the
proper authorities, and Mr.. w. will doubtless
soon DO excused from further safeguard duty
That no will DO ablo to draw full pay up to the
present time has, We learn, been conceded by
eompetont:military authority. Fnta0 n

Hsw to Judge Character by the
Hair.

Coarse black hair and dark skin signify great
power OF character, with tendency to sensual
ity. Fine hair and dark skin indicate strength
Of character, along with purity and goodness.
Stiff, straight black hair and beard indicate a
coarse, strong, rigid, straight forward character.
Fine dark brown hair signifies the combination
of exquisite sensibilites, with great strength Of
character. Flat, clinging, straight hair, mel
ancholy, but extreme constant character. Harsh,
upright hair is the sign of a reticent and sour
spirit; stubborn and harsh character. Coarse
red hair and whiskers indicate powerful animal
passions, together with corresponding strength
of character. Auburn hair, with forid counte-
nance, denote the highest order Of sentiment and
intensity of feeling, purity of character, with
the highest capacity for enjoyment or suffering.
Straight even, smooth and glossy hair denote
strength, harmony, and evenness OF character,
hearty affections, a clear head, and superior tai
ents.
Fine, silky, supple hair is the mark of deli
cate and sensitive temperament, and speaks in
favor of the mind and character Of the owner.
Crisp, curly hair indicates hasty, somewhat
impetuoas and rash character. White HAIR de-
notes lymphatic and indolent constitution :;
and we may add that besides these qualities
there are chemical properties residing in the col
oring matter of the hairtube which undoubtedly
have some effect upon the disposition. Thus,
red haired people are VIGOROUSLY passionate.
Now, red hair is proved by analysis to contain a
large amount Of sulphur, while very black is
colored with almost pure carbon. The presence
Of these matters in the blood points to pecuiari-
ties of temperament and feeling which al
most universally associated with them. The
very way in which the hair flows is strongly in
dicative Of the ruling passions and inclinations.
and perhaps clever person could give shrewd
guess at the manner of a man or womans dispS-
siton by only seeing the backs of their heads.

WASHINGTON. Nav G. 1S6

WASHINGTON, May 6, 1868.
Stock in impeachment is still subject to
the same fluctuations which have prevailed
throughout the trial, the closing of Bing-
hams argument to-day not having produced
any effect by which any idea of the ulti-
mate result can be formed further than has
been already canvassed. The partisan APP
plause in the galleries which followed the
close Of the partisan peroration has of
course no weight in deluding the minds of
any as to the verdict. When that will be
heard it is difficult to say. The indications
hardly point to it within the present week,
and many say it will not be given until after
the Chicago Convention. 1t depends mainly
on the time which will be consumed in the
jury discussion; to which reporters will not
be admitted. Almost every point of the case,
every decision Of the Senate, has been seized
upon from which to draw differences
rs to the result; and, after all, it is univer-
sally conceded tonight that there is abso-
lutely nothing which is positive and con-
sequently the suspense is becoming more
and more anxious. The usual bets and
rumors have been circulated to-day, and
the friends Of the President have lost none
of their courage, although their anxiety,
like that Of the advocates of conviction, is
of the most intense character. Some assert
their belief that twenty votes will be
recorded in support Of acquittal, and stoutly
maintain that that opinion is founded upon
the fact that there certainly are enough sena-
tors who will construe the law and evidence
offered in the trial us opposed to conviction.
The only strength which the Radicals have
gathered in their opinions favoring convic-
ton since yesterday was from statements
which have been in circulation to-day to
the effect that certain senators whose intiu-
ence in favor of acquittal has been very
much feared by them have made no sign
of their views upon the situation whatever.
Each party seeks for hope in every circum-
stance that transpires, and yet speculation
is as busy now, and anxiety as feverish, as at
any time since the case was opened.

About the Impeachment Trial.


Special telegram TO the Dispatch.
WASHINGTON, May There is less ex-
element tonight upon impeachment than
was noticeable last night. Bets are not so
freely offered for .acquittal or conviction.
The status of senators, after the session OF
this afternoon, does not appear to De dif-
ferent from that which was indicated IN
these dispatches last night.
In secret session there was protracted
debate upon the order of procedure Tor
next Monday and Tuesday, and especially
as to the form Of question to be put to each
senator, and the answer thereto, at the sug-
gestion of Chief Justice Chase.
The Senate meets at 10 o'clock Monday
to deliberate upon the questions which are
to be prepared by the Chief Justice.
The lobby or carpet-baggers continue
their pressure, and have been in anxious
waiting around the doors Of the Senate to-
day. They report to senators that unless
Johnson is removed, Grant will decline the
nomination for President. What influence
this intimidation has had upon doubtful
senators is not observable.
1t is reported that Secretary Seward is
negotiating for the purchase Of Iceland and
Greenland. WALLACE.
