Practical Talk.
The following sensible paragraph IL
from the Des Moines Bulletin:
"Iowa has the healthiest climate or
this continent-has more first rate land
ready for settlement than any other State
or Territory--has less worthless land than
anv-is said to be out Of debt-has a
vigorous, intelligent, inventive population
SIS on the great highway around the
world, and between the two arms of the
mightiest rivers-has the strongest dele
CATION in our representative government
of any million of peoples now favored
with efficient oficers--has a legislature
that meets only biennially and makes but
few laws-produces more, buys more,
sells more, builds more, preserves more
and improves faster than any other State
or Territory of million of people on this
Foot-stoole-is in the center OF the star
of Empire which westward takes its way.
Are you on the move? Look at Iowa
before you settle. Are you stationary?
Look at Iowa, then move. That is to say,
if you have any snap about you. 1t you
havn't-if you are a siow-come or Johnny
go-easy-don't mind about inspecting this
part Of the vineyard. Better look down
south-or travel out west-or take trip
over the mountains-or 20 up north-or
stay down east-any where, except in any
one Of the hundred counties in this State,
for you wouldn't harmonize with our in
North Iowa times. [volume] (McGregor, Iowa) 1867-current, 1869-03-24

Adolph E. Borie, the Secretary of the
Navy under President Grants administra-
ton, was born in the city of Philadelphia
in the year 1909, and is consequently 60
years of age. He is member of one of
the oldest and most aristocratic Philadcl-
phia families. He graduated at the uni.
versity of Pennsylvania, and soon after
ward embarked in mercantile pursuits.
MIR. Borie amassed the great bulk of his
immense fortune in the China trade, and
at present is member of the well>known
importing house of Mexican, Borie & Co.,
No. 1853 Dock street, Philadelphia. He
was one of the founders Of the Union
league of Philadelphia, and took very
active part in the doings Of that organiza
ton, during and since the rebellion. lie
is the present vice president of the Unior
league, having been recently elected te
that position, declining the presidency in
favor of Horace Binney.

IT is surprising how much may be
obtained by devoting few hours each day
to study, during series of years. Glib.
bon produced his great work rather by
the regularity than the protracted nature
Of his daily studies. Franklin became
the wisest and one of the best read of his
contemporaries in the midst of incessan,
labor. And if the workman with his
healthful mind SO we'll prepared for the
reception of knowledge, will give two
hours each day to careful study, he may
in a few years, surpass in general infor
nation the majority of college graduates
who so often obtain diploma without
deserving it, or who laid aside their learn.
ing tho moment they left their prcceptors
He may elevate his own intellect by COM
ing into communion with the eminent
intellects of the past.

THE MIDsHIPMES.- ''Inasmuch as many
of our vessels in active service have no mid
shipmen, the Board suggest that the graduating
class be distributed among those vessels, there
to perform the actual and necessary duties of
midshipmen for at least year, or until they
are required in higher grade to which they
should attain only after rigid examination
With not more than from six to twelve on a
vessel in active service 1t is thought that they
would supply want that is felt, be more
useful to the government, and at the same time
be acquiring more practical experience than
by the other method This is good recon-
mendation. ''The other method is the one at
present in use, of sending all the middies
together on one ship for years cruise, which
was merely putting the school house aaoat.
The plan now recommended by the Board is
the one formerly In use and by far the more
practical

An important issue to the public was tried
in the Marine Court on Tuesday in the case of
Fallon against the captain and private of the
Eighth ward police. Our readers know that
the Eighth ward is one that has its full share
of bad characters, and it has one peculiar
species of disreputable inhabltant not much
known elsewhere. There are many men whose
lives oscillate between its gambling houses, its
brothels and its snowy barrooms. They are
persons of irreproachabe linen. They
wear the smoothest stiffest and whitest collars,
cuffs and shirt fronts known in civilized life.
They are distinguished for their ''good clothes
and the readiness with which they accept,
and the extreme to which they carry, all
fashions that are outre in style. They have
no visible means of support-that is, no means
Of support but such as they are ashamed to
acknowledge, although they are comparatively
shameless people. In the execution of police
order to arrest all panel thieves and persons
''without visible means of support" the man
Fallon was taken to tho station house, and
subsequently, on charge of vagrancy, taken
before Justice Dodge. The Justice decided
that he was not q vagrant in tie meaning of
the statute, and dismissed the complaint
Fallon then sued the parties arresting and
holding him for false imprisonment, laying
his damages at FIVE hundred dollars.
The Court charged the jury very
strongly in bis favor, ana even made what
seems to us an unjustidable appeal to popular
prejudice against police authority; but the
jnrx virtually sustained The police by verdict

MINISTER MCMAHON HEARD FRoM.-The
English mail from Rio Janeiro, at Lisbon,
contains the important intelligence, which we
have reported by way Of London and through
the Atlantic cable, that Mr.. Mcmahon, United
States Minister to Paraguay, has been heard
from. An English officer passed through the
lines of the allies, by permission, to the head
quarters Of Lopez, where he delivered official
papers, and on his return, it is said, carried
dispatches from Minister Mcmahon for the
United States government. Should this news
prove correct our Envoy is safe, and the South
American combatants not so bad as we
imagined.
