Money in Ottawa continues tight and is con-

The RIGHT SpIRIT.-We have be
fore us the proceedings of large
and spirited meeting at Richland,
which sent the delegates to our re-
cent railroad convention.
After thorough debate pro and con,
the meeting finally decided by very
large majority to vote a tax of five
per cent in that town and township,
to aid the Washington and Ottumwa
branch of the G. r. l. 4 P. Rk., pro-
vided Richland is made point on
said road.
Richland township is the largest
tax-paying precinct, except one, in
Keokuk county; inhabited by intel.
ligent and wealthy people, who are
determined to have a market and
outlet for their products, and this
action of theirs, which is highly
creditable to their sagacity, shows
the extent of the aid which may be
expet ted for this great thoroughtare
along the entire line, as soon AS &C.
tive operations commence.
The country between here and
Washington is abundantly able and
willing to do much toward the grad.
ing. tieing and bridging of this pro
posed road, and the people thereof
are smart enough to know that il
will be the best investment they car
make of their money to do so.

shows that Gen. Grants head con.

Wilson ofI0Wa.

From he Springfield (Mass.) Republican.
We long ago, as the readers of the
Republican are we'll aware, picked
out James F. Wilson, of Iowa, as a
man worthy ola Cabinet place under
Grant, and being such, predicted that
he was likely to have one. As it
turns out, he did, indeed, have the
offer OF Cabinet appointment, the
choice, in fact, of three of the bes.
places in the Presidents official fami-
ly. But he declined them all prefer
ring, as q dispatch to the Tribune
says, "to retire to private life and
the practice of his profession" Par
tial as we have been to Mr.. Wilson
heretofore, Partially founded on
knowledge OF his private character
as we'll as his brilliant and honest ca
reer in Congress, truth compels us to
say that we never appreciated his
worth till now-never knew his val
ne to the country till the country is
about to lose him. The man who
can voluntarily give up seat in Con-
gress, and then about to retire to his
home, refused to be~uiled into ro-
naming in Washington by almost
his pick Of positions in the Cabinet
of the most popular President since
the days OF Washington, is surely
made OF finer stuff than ordinary;
and, in declining Office, demonstrates
more than ever his fitness for it. He
is a man not TO be had cheaply, and
hence the man that the people ought
to have the servicesof at any price
Of ex-members of Congress, who,
when they can no longer secure a re-
election, by hook or by crook, are
ready for any job that may turn up,
from the Governorship of Rocky
Mountain Territory to keeping the
doors of the body of which they were
once members, Grant can find plenty
as well as professional politicians, who
have never been to Congress. But
men like Iowa Wilson are scarce !;
and, in spite of the fact the the Pres
ident has called around him group
of men every one of whom is worthy
of the honor thus bestowed on him,
and mono of them men we should like
to see displaced, we must again ex-
press our regret that Mr.. Wilson is
| not also among the elect.

Maxims for Young Girls.

Never make your appearance in
the morning without having first
bathed Cf only with sponge and a
quart of water brushed and arrang-
ed your hair, and dressed yourself
neatly and completely.
Keep yourclothing, especially your
under clothing, in perfect order
Never let pins do duty as buttons, or
strings take the place of proper
bands.
Examine every garment when it
comes from the wash, and if neces-
sary mend it with neatness and pre-.
cision. Do not sew up the holes in
your stockings as we have seen some
careless, untidy girls do, but take in
broad margin around the hole, be
it small or large, with fine darning.
needle and darning cotton. And
cover the fracture with an interlaced
stitch, SO close as to be as strong as
the body of the stocking, and fine
enough to be ornamental. Stockings
mended this way need darning but q
few times in the course of their OK
istence.
Train yourself to useful occupa
ton. Remember it is wicked te
waste time, and nothing gives such
an impression of vanity and absolute
Stiffness as habit of idling and never
having anything to do.
If you are in your fathers house
take some department Of household
labor upon yourself, and part of tn,
sewing, and make it your business t.
attend to it. Do not let call from
this girl, or visit from that, or al
invitation from the other interfere
with the performance of your duty
Let your pleasures come in as re
creation not as the business OF you
life.
If you can, cultivate to perfection
some art by which you could gain in
dependent livelihood. Do it, wheth
er there is any necessity for it OF
not. There is no telling when OF
under what circumstances you may
need it.
