LADIES BooTs.-The Philadelphia
Telegraph says: 1.-THE only real re, olu-
ton IN fashion is the startling innovation
IN boots. Instead Of the invariably black
to which We have been so accustomed, a
mandate as severe as those before which
Media and Persia trembled, has pronounc
ed under the terrible punishment of being
behind the time that the ladies must be
robed cap a-pie' in the same color, or
rather, that the boot must harmonic in
nue. with the rest Of the costume. Thus,
# the robe be trimmed with gold or sill
yer, the boot becomes also apparently a
solid casing of these precious metals.
MD and morocco are manufactured IN all
the tlnts that are used in street suits,
from the color Of the sky above the lad
les heads to the hue of the dust beneath
their feet. The same style of very high
boot, buttoned at the side, with high
heel, is also the exacted costume for the
bal room

Iowa.

Iowa is clear of debt. Alone, of all
the states, she does not owe dollar.
This is not the result of meanness or dis
honesty. The people of Iowa did not
shlrk from their duty during the war.
They paid the full share of the public
expenses, and sent their quota of men to
the field; and there were no better men
in the armies of the Union. The GAL
lantry of Iowa's soldiers was conspicuous
IN every battle, as their endurance and
vlgor were in every march. This happy
condition of freedom from debt is due TO
the wise and economical administration
which the people of Iowa have insisted
on, and which their state officers have
been able to give them. Its, indeed, an
enviable situation, which other States
groaning under debt and taxation, may
look at with an admiring eye.
There is another singular virtue about
the State of Iowa which should be men
toned with equal onor-indeed, it NAV
serve to explain the wonderful growth
and prosperity of that desirable fraction
OF the Union. Since the days of George
Washington Jones and Augustus Caesar
Dodge the State has been steadily and
rapidlyincreasing Metropolitan strength.
The majority of Fremont over Buchan-
an in 1856 was 1874; of Lincoln over
Mcclellan in 1864 twas SO, 479. In the
general stampede of last Autumn Iowa
stood firm, even when Massachusetts was
deeply shaken, Pennsylvania lost, and
Ohio divided with the enemy. The fig
ures below tell the story of the State that
is out of debt. Note the proportion of
parties in her Legislature, and tax your
memory to recall the year when Iowa
hada Democratic representative in either

senator NIorton's Speech.

Senator Morton of Indiana, made u
very strong speech in the Senate ON Fri
day of last week, on reconstruction, of
which the Washington correspondent of
the N. Y. Tribune speaks as follows: I.
"The great event of the day and Of
the session in the Senate was the speech
of Senator Morton of Indiana, who, from
a seat in front of the chair, delivered
one of the most powerful arguments in
vindication of the Congressional policy
of Recons, ruction that have yet been
made. He was compelled to keep his
seat during the delivery of his speech
the second time only in the history of
Federal legislation that the spectacle has
been seen of a Senator addressing the
Senate from his seat and not from the
floor. A disabling lameness in both of
his legs compelled the distinguished SEN
ator to this unusual and most disadvan-
tageous form of delivery. His sentences
fell like sledge hammer blows, and every
word was timely and weighty. The sem
ator had no preparation but few rough
notes, to which he seldom referred. Up
to the last night he had no intention of
speaking; but as Mr.. Doolittle quoted
largely from him yesterday, to prove that
in 1865, he (Morton) Endorsed Johnsons
policy, he felt it his duty to reply. The
galleries were densely filled with an audi
ence such as seldom sits through politi-
cal discussion, and not one who heard
the opening sentences left before the close
OF the great argument. The homage of
such profound attention as was manifest
ed is not often paid. AT the conclusion
of the speech, the Senators present focked
around Mr.. Morton in perfect mob to
congratulate him. The first to extend
his hand was his Democratic colleague.
Mr.. Hendricks. The proceedings of the
Senate were interrupted for time by
the confusion which the enthusiasm in
favor of the speech produced. Mr. Nye
followed Mr.. Morton. 1t was intended
that some democrat should do so, but
none was willing to undertake the task
few days reflection and study.
MIR. Morton's speech will be circulated
rs campaign document. Thousands of
copies were subscribed for in less than
half an hour after its conclusion"

HOMICIDE IN BENNINGToN.-Ab orr;-
Die tradegy occurred at Bennington on
Wednesday evening last, resulting in the
shooting, probably fatally, of Mrs. Ellen
Burke, by her husband, Paul M. Burke
1t appears that Mrs. B., has for some
time refused to live with her husband ON
account of intolerable severity, and that
she had already petitioned for divorce
from him, though had not yet obtained
IT. Her course displeased Burke. and we
learn that at various times since their
separation he had threatened to take her
life. On Wednesday evening he went to
her residence, where he found her in
company with two of her children. The
latter he ordered out of the room, saving
he wished to speak with their mother

model train was loaded with water and
run down steep incline, the water run
off, and the force of the fy-wheel carried
the train back to the place of starting.

power but that gained by such descent

JUDICIAL BULLYING OF JURoRs.-Al
a Criminal Court in Antrim, in the north
of Ireland, a few days ago, one Judge
Otway, who presided, went a good way
in initiating the detestablc Jetfreys. The
scene is thus described:
"The jury handed in verdict of &C
quittal in case OF common assault, the
Judge, addressing the foreman asked
= What's that you say? foreman
There were discrepancies in the evidence
which His Worship--sTut, tut

SAD sToRY.-A sad story has found its
way INTO print, concerning Mrs. Green,
wife OF the Maiden, Mass, murderer,
one was, 1t seems, engaged to gentle
man, previous to her marriage with
Green. Green who was the postmaster
OF Maiden, intercepted the letters between
them' leading her to suppose that he had
deserted her. She married Green, and
the gentleman married Mrs. Green's sis
ter, who subsequently died. Then fol-
lowed Green's crime, and on the trial the
interrogation of the letters came out. AZ
ter Greens execution, the old engagement
with the gentleman was renewed to be
ended by death, her affianced being one
of the victims of the shocking catastro-
phe at Angola, while on his way east to
be married.

Ohio Improving!

A special election was held in the 9Th
Congressional district of Ohio on Mon.
day to fill the vacancy occasioned by the
death of Mr.. Hamilton, and resulted in
sweeping Union triumph and gain of
over 700 since last fall. Last October
the Union majority was but 246, and the
democracy were confident Of carrying
the district and made thorough can
vass with that expectation, Mr.. Thur
man, the recently elected democratic sem
ator, heading the List of democratic
speakers. They expected the tide of
1867 was going to be continued in 1868.
Even the Union party considered the re-
suit close and Senator Sherman went
home to vete it being in his district. So
confident were the democracy of sue
cess, that even the Boston Post the lead
ing democratic newspaper Of New Eng
land, had the following ON the morning
of the election:
!" Advices received to.night from Re-
publican sources in Ohio indicate that
Burns, (Democrat) will beat Gen. Beatty
for Congress in the district make vacant
by the death of Mr.. Hamilton. This
will be the opening victory,of the cam
paign. The political intelligence from
New Hampshire is likewise encouraging.
The Democratic Committee have received
information that warrants the belief that
the Democracy will carry the State.
Nothing but their own inaction can beat
them, and the Democrats from that State
never falter."
If the Post is as correct ,ebout New
Hampshire as about Ohio then we are
surely all right. Ohio certainly is the
opening victory of the campaign"
