The United States Court, last week
at Raleigh, n. c., completed the first
trial attempted under the new Congress-
ional Ku KIux law.
The cases were that of Shotwell and
others, charged with taking Hon. J. NJ.
Justice out of his bed, at Rutherfordton,
on the 18th of June last, and removing
him to the woods, where he was assault
ed and afterward allowed to go home.
The telegram says that the jury return
ed verdict convicting eight and &C
quitting three, while five plead guilty.
Two colorcd men were on the jury. A
motion of the defendants counsel for a
new panel, on the grou nd that the jury
were political partisans, was denied
There are over 200 others awaiting
trial.
A "Citizens' Convention" met at Iowa
City on the 23d inst, and nominated a
full County ticket. VIM. Crum is the
nominee for Senator, and Cyrus Saun-
ders and WIN. b. Ford, for Representa-
tives. These "Peoples' "Tax-payers"
'Citizens" Conventions are thick here
abouts. Linn county first took the di-
sease, Muscatine caught it and now
johnson is afflicted. They are the re-
suit of "miscegenation" between sore
headed Republicans and office hungry
Democrats, often further inspired by
personal rancor, who seek by such
PLAUSIBLE catch words as working
mems party" Taxpayers ticket"
.tequal taxation and the like, to make
enough unwary souls believe that they
would reform matters if they could or
could if they would, to either elect
themselves to office or prevent the cleo
ton of some one else who would other
wise have succeeded. Instead of re-
formers they are really political pirates,
whose only object is either spoil or re-
venge, or both, and the people generally
them. In the case of the
Johnson county "citizens,'" the war
cry is Railroad taxation" not bad one
IN itself; but one which will sound tame
o Republicans when they know that
the Conventions candidate for Senator,
Mr.. Clum, is a personal enemy to Gov. |
the Republican candidate.

The Chicago Post thinks that the
story of the Iowa man living months
after his neck was broken, was "simply
an allegory representing the Democratic
party. The only signs of vitality the
poor creature gave were those of eating
and talking. He made great deal OF
noise with his mouth, and was terrible
burden on his friends. That's the
Democratic party. A man with half an
eye ought to recognize it in the thin
disguise.'

INDUSTRY AT HOME.-Nature

dominions; and man, to whom
this beauty is addressed. should
feel and obey the lesson. Let
him, too, be industrious in
adorning his domain in max

lent and comfortable, but pleas
ant. Let him be industrious in
surrounding it with pleasant
obiects-in decorating it with
in and without, with things
that tend to make it agreeable
and attractive. Let industry

COUNTRY VS.. TOWN.-A preg-
nant fact, to which a contem-
porary calls attention, is that
from the beginning of our Gov
ernment, nearly all of our real
ly great political leaders have
been men who were not bred
in cities. Washington, all the
AdamseS, Jefferson, Madison,
Clay, Jackson, Calhoun, were
farmers, and a large majority
of our most eminent public
men have been addicted to- ag-
riculture. Great cities have
had next to no influence in our
politics; and the same is true
of the politics of Great Britain.
These two countries have pre-
served their freedom because
they have thus far been pro-
tected from the blighting curse
of Capitalization. London
though both the political and
the commercial metropolis OF
Great Britain, has no undue in
fuence in British politics; and
until the advent Of the Repub-
lican party there were no
symptoms of Capitalization in
the United States. The gener.
al diffusion of political life
through all parts of the coun,
try, and the equal influence o1
every section in proportion tc
its population, has been the
main safeguard of liberty and
order.

afford good sleeping-places
generally have them. The de-
gree of refinement and cultiva-
ton, as well as wealth one has
attained, may be easily read by
one glance at their sleeping
apartment. Cleanliness and
comfort are perfectly consistent
with honest poverty, for straw
and water are cheap every
where in the country, and with
in the reach of all.
AS a general rule, the better
care a man takes of his body,
in feeding it with skill, clothing
it with discretion, and giving
it due and refreshing sleep, the
more work he can do, and the
higher quality of his work. A
vigorous, energetic, and hardy
body may patiently endure for
a series of years gross viola
tons of its fundamental laws,
but the day will come when it
Will demand full retribution foI
dishonored requisition. The
rules of physical well-being are
like those laws that Moses re,
ceived on the granite of Mount
Sinai. Tobacco, broken sleep
; bad fare, cold, dampness, mi
asms. vii! tell on every frame

comes he requires eye for eye

supposed to cast some refiec-
tions on the man to whom it is
applied. While this may be
true. the genus loafer occupies
prominent position in society,
and performs functions too i'm
portant to he lightly consider
ed. The great weapon of the
loafer is his tongue. As his
time is not consumed in those
vulgar tasks, to which common
place humanity is assigned, he
has abundant opportunity for
the propagation of his views.
He stands around corners, and
in rural circles his opinion is
often most influential in pro-
ducing esteem, or casting dis
credit on men who are can
vassing for public favor. He
occupies a most lucky attitude
towards politics. The excite
ments of political agitation are
the only things which can eff
fectually stir the stagnant cur
rent of his blood, and here his
abundant leisure gives him the
advantage. Who cares for the
political support of the steady,
careful business man, whose
, whole industry is concentrated
in some legitimate avocation.
: He is nothing as compared to
: the loafer, who is constantly
t soliciting attention, and inf1u-
: encing opinion in favor of his
: favorite measures and men
e 1t is true that the loafer has
d some drawbacks. 1t is very
e natural for him to take tC
!, drink. But this predilectior
e of his is palliated by the strong
Y inducements which constantly
c beset him. In no way can the
: loafer insinuate his views more
e effectually than by using th'
II hilarity of the social hour. Ii
Ie no other way can he get int

'o cordial friendly relations. a

, well expect from him any e1

IF moral principle, but he is ger

10 Try qualifications is that he wi
