The Pullman Silver Pal
ace Car.

On Friday last, we hastily
interviewed one of the magnifi
cent Pullman Palace Cars
which have been recently plac.
ed on the M. & G. Railroad
We found the inside of this
coach replete with elegant and
even gorgeous upholstery, with
every accessory for an easy and
luxurious transit from one dis
tant point to another. The
outside of the car is the very
model of neatness and beauty !;
and in the addition of these
palaces on Wheels" to the
rolling stock Of the M. & G..
r. r., we see the unerring
taste and Judgment of John w.
Garrett, the successful and in
defatigable President of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
The addition of these cars also
demonstrates an additional
travel over these roads, and is
but the forerunner of a bright
future for both of them.

LET every one, during the long
eveningsin winter, labor to improve
himself, and parents should not
neglect their children. One of the
best things parent can put into
the hands of a child than can read
is newspaper. There are hund-
reds of Democrats in Vinton county
who do not take this paper; and we
are sure that there is not q Democrat
ic family in the county but ought to
take this paper. Its influence may
not at once be seen, but it will soon
or or later be felt. It's by the slow
process of gradual education that
permanent public opinion is formed.

TIE war between Prussia

The war between Prussia
and France has long ceased to
be a sensation and the dis
patches concerning it are gen
orally the dullest news we get.
Since General Aurelles de Pal
adines gained the success OF
Orleans, there has been more
or less maneuvering and skirm.
ishing in the field but the
most of it seems to have been
of an unimportant nature
There appears to be no reason
to doubt that France is hope
lessly whipped, and that q
stubborn pride is all that keeps
her from surrendering. The
dispatches cay that the people
are anxious for peace, and de-
nounce the Tours government
for persisting in holding out
against hope. A nation whose
capital has been for months cut
off from all supplies, and which
is powerless to relieve it in the
minutest particular from the
horrors of threatened starvation,
is whipped almost to death,
and ought to be able to appre-
ciate tie fact.

We observ that Spoon Thief
Butler of Massachusetts, has
been making a speech in favor
of a war with England for the
purpose Of making Grants Ad-
ministration popular and en-
riching a great many Radical
politicians, while Butler could
steal the spoons belonging to
the English.

lowing good suggestion: CAL
ways when you get into po-
session of any good news go
directly to your home paper

not only receive his thanks for

of his patrons. Many items Of
news doubtless escape our no.

add interest to our paper il
chronicled."

The Russian war cloud is
not as large as it was. Doubt
less the whole dispute about
the Black Sea matter will be
left to a Congress of the powers
interested in the Paris treaty
Of 1856, and an arrangement
will be patched up. Russia
probably appreciates the dam
gerous "irregularity" of her
proposed l'%:tion of that
treaty, and sees that d little
more red tape is necessary. We
lave no doubt, however, that
she will gain her point in the
end.

question perhaps every day in

reply how is your pocket book

book is, so is the Railroad
The road will be built if our
people desire it, and come up
with their subscriptions of

Railroads, but when built, such
