I SATURDAY. MAY Cd. 1868,
Reputation.

Brick Pomerey's paper, which has
the largest circulation, and the great
est influence of all the Copperhead
sheets in the country, openly advo-
Gates the reputation of the entire
public debt, contracted to subdue the
rebellion, feed and clothe our SOL
dicrs, and pension their wives and
children; both root and branch. No
intelligent, candid Democrat, will de-
ny that this policy does not meet
with the approval of a majority of
that party, at least in the West.
After repudiating our sacred pecu
mary obligations, how long would it
take these Williams if they should:ever
come into power, to repudiate all the
other results of the War, by estab-
fishing the statu quo ante bellum, re-
handing the negro back to his nor
NAL condition, restoring the auction
block, and whipping post,-those
symbols of democracy,-unde which
lovely system, every man would en-
JOY the divine right Of walloping his
niger, subject alone to the consti-
tuition. You may wriggle, and
squirm, and protest, but this is the Fl.
-.
nal landing place of the Copperhead
party, and if you don't want to go the
whole hog, you had better ccme out
of the foul party.

Obituary.

DIED, on the 25th inst, in the
town of COMPETING, of n Tremendous
GUS letting alone, the COMPETING Far
mcr's Club, afthr brief existence of
ten weeks. 1t was feeble child
from its birth, and it's sickly exis-
tence was only sustained by the per-
severing exertions, and disinterested
devotion Of the few individuals who
finally bore it's remains to its last
resting place, where it quietly repo-
SEES, "unhonored and unsung." Peace
to its ashes.
1t is refreshing to know that our
town is so far in advance of it's neigh
bors, in point of farming intelligence
as to require no aid from the expert
ence, failures or successes of others.
Not only is she blessed with superior
wisdom Gas a survey of her tidy and
well titled fa,mes will show, but al.
so with such extreme modesty,
which always characterizes great
minds, that she is unwilling to let her
light shine, by lmparting her knowl-
edge to the benighted regions around
She expects at the contemplated
County fair, to bear away all the pre-
miums, SO no other town need try to
compete with her. A CITIZEN.

BALLINGALL HoUsE.-We would
say to our friends, when they visit
Ottumwa, not to fail to stop at this
new and elegant house. Much credit
is due the enterprising proprietor, P.
G. Ballingall, Esq, and if the bust
ness men Of Ottumwa were to donate
him ten thousand dollars, they
would be but doing their duty and
advancing their own interests. He
has, by his indomitable industry
and energy erected and furnished in
complete style a Hotel that gives
character to their city. No man
understands the hotel business better,
nor has more of tho qualities that
make a gentleman, than the pro.
prietor. He is a general favorite
Then comes the accomplished mana.
ger, Mr.. d. Hodge, with his attentive
walters, fine rooms, luxurious beds.
and lavish bill of fare, at moderate
prices, all of which go to make a
man feel to exclaim, home again.

The Assassin's Party.

Ii is no longer a matter of doubt,
that the organization of assassins
called the '.Kux Klux Khan" which
had its origin in the South, among
the defeated rebs, has also an extend
ed and rapidly increasing circle of
Klans, all over the North.
In another place in this paper, will
be found notice from Brick Pome-
roy advising the faithful that formu.
las for organizing these hell born
auxillaries of the Democratic party,
can be procured by application to his
office.
We clip the following from the
Fairfield Democrat, one of the most
rabid sheets of treason in Iowa
which that paper publishes without
comments:

and $4,000 wounded. Also that %
large guns, 5000 stand of small
arms, 1000 spears and a vast amount
of other munitions were captured,
which closes out the Abysinia con.
Germ without reserve. The dispatch
say.
"The interior of the Fortress of
Magdalia presented a splendid sight.
The place was glowing with barbar.
ic splendor. The British troops
plundered it at once. They found
four royal crowns made of solid gold,
twenty thousand dollars in silver,
one thousand silver plates, several
lots of rich jewels and other articles
of great value.

INDIANs.-Some dozen or more
Chippewa Indians have been loafing
about the city for the past day or
two. They are evidently on beg
ging expedition. One of them had
a " recommend" which read about
as follows: "This warriors name
is Hunkydora. He is poor but hon
est. Red hot stoves are supposed to
be safe in his presence. But what
he won't take, pup wouldn't haul
out of a lanyard. If you can't give
him ten cents, "square drink" will
do as we'll. If he should make appli.
cation to shovel on the canal, you
can recommend him as big Injun'
to the contractors "-Constitution.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS are now
80 we'll understood, as to be in fair
way to become essentials in the
room-gardening of all persons of
taste. Growing plants, fishes and
water reptiles are placed in the same
globe or tank Of water, and the
gases which the fish reject are the
food Of the plants; while the plants,
on the other hand, prepare the ele,
ments necessary for the health Of the
fish. By this beautiful principle of
reciprocity, both plants and animals
remain in perfect health, without
the water scarcely ever being
changed. A tank for plants and
animals might form the base of
case for ferns and similar plants, and
a cage for birds on the top.-Gar-
dener's Monthly.

New York, ~.
An Atlanta special to the Tribune
says:
Semi official statements from "a
counties give 45O2 majority for the
constitution and $500 majority for
Bullock.
The full official returns will not be
resolved before Friday next. The
Judges who arc thoroughly compe-
tent to give an opinion now, estimate
that the constitution has been carried
by at least 1000 majority, and that
Bullock is chosen Governor by 5000
majority.
1t is probable that majority of
Democrats have been chosen to the
Legislature, but it remains to be
seen whether each of them can take
the oath to make quorum.
Raleigh, N. G. ~.
The Tribune's special says:
Thirty-six counties that have been
heard from give the Republicans l5,-
600 majority.
The majority in the first Congress
sional district for Mr.. French is g.
600.
The Constitution is undoubtedly
ratified, and the whole State ticket is
elected by at least $4,000 majority.

We have frequently urged fall
planting of potatoes, and covering
the earth with good coat of straw.
This will give an early start in the
spring, and often a full crop, when
spring planted potatoes are cut
short by an early summers drouth.
Farmers and gardeners would do
well to put in an acre or two in this
way in the fall. Two weeks earlier
in market, and the general crop will
doubly pay for all the extra labor,
besides securing an extra yield.

From Agency City.
AGENCY TOWNSHIP,
April %. 1868.

EDITORS COURIER Through the
invitation given for correspondence
from the different townships of our
county, we propose offering for your
criticism a few notes by the way~
side; but having in mind the old
proverb, concerning prophet, "a
hint to the wise is sufficient" we are
prepared to have a similar verdict
passed upon our gleanings from the
everyday articles of life, without
any startling events to chronicle by
way of spice or variety.
Our citizens are pressing forward
in the front ranks of improvement,
and this part of Wopello is gradually
assuming an air OF progressive cul-
ture, which is only attainable by a
people wide awake to the enterprising
spirit of the age.
The village Of Agency City still
lives with surprising vitality, con-
sideriDg that she dwells within the
shadow of her moro flourishing
sister, Ottumwa, who reigns crowned
and sceptered queen of the hills.
Our farmers are more generally
interesting themselves, this spring
than in any year previous, in the
planting out variety of fruit trees
and the day is not far distant, we;
think, when we shall have an abund-
ant supply for home consumption as
well as for the market abroad, and
with more care shown for the out
ward surroundings of our dwellings,,
our prairie homes will bud and
blossom as the rose in their attractive
beauty.
Quite number of farm and school
houses and buildings for a variety of
purposes are being erected, with an
| eye for taste and convenience.
District No. 2, has just completed
a brick edifice for school purposes,
that will rival any in our cities, in it's
modern Improvements and appliances
not forgetting bell, which may be
heard for miles around.
| Fall wheat is looking remarkably
well, and the small grain sown in
the early part of spring is quite
promising, notwithstanding the
heavy rains and cold weather, which
has been unusually severe. April
has been POLITICALLY compared TO
Woman smiling through her tears"
In this instance we should add some
WINERY frowns before the metaphor
would be complete.
| We would say to you before
closing, that your efforts to make
the COURIER superior sheet, has
been fully appreciated by your friends
and patrons, who tender you their
hearty support and influence; and,
by the way, allow us to congratulate
| you upon the successful manner in
which the editorial department is
presided over with such perfect dig
nifty and grace. May fortune give
you her sunniest smile, and lend you
the honors of green old age.
Yours respectfully,
Mrs. NJ. Il.

Are the people ready to pass the

years Of bloody war to overthrow it,
have through this organization OPEN
ly and unblushlngly resorted to the
bandits argument of the bullet,
knife, and midnight assassination, to

system which was inaugurated by
Booth, and Payne, has become SO
thoroughly established in the South
that Unionists lite is Just about as

But recently they went to the
