One OF the strange freak. OF human
nature was that intense public excite
ment as to the quality OF stone which
was to 90 into the foundation OF the
new State House at Des MONIES
when the Oxford contract was made.
Papers exhausted geology and ch en-
istry in discussion of the various
kinds ot limestone, and .Oolite" was
the.:ypographical ghost that disturb
ed the public slum6er. Our neigh.
Dor OF the Republican neither ate nor
slept for weeks, during which time
his office looked like stone quarry
and he took on the semblancs OF a
splinter OF magnetism limestone.
This all blew over and the Ortord
contract with it. and now Dudley
and the other eminent geologisis OF
the commission are taking stone from
every little pocket OF rocks on the
.Des Moines river, and. it the local
press in the Des Moinesi Nalley ,s
ere dible. some car louis shake and
cruinblc to pieces before they reach
Des Moines. 1 ~
In the midst of this disintegratlon
OF the foundation stone, the people
arc perfectly Indifferent. our neigh
dor OF tho Republieaa withholds his
geological sarcasm and Frank Hatton
of the Mt. Pleasant Journal refralns
from chemical irony. Why don't you

The Rebellion in South Carolina.


President Grant has declared mar.

OF South Carolina, AMI has suspend.

Armed bands of men, who employ
disguises to facilitate their revolution.
AIRY designs, have conspired there TO
violate the law and DEFY the power
of the United States. and ordinary
agents of the law are unable to bring
them to Justic. So the President,
pursuant TO the power in him vested
by the law and the Constitution pro-
poses to tave this new rebellion in
hand, and to protect innocent citizens
who are now pcing subjected to out
rage and insalt in tie former cradle
OF secession. We trnst that he will
make short work with the miscre-
ants who, not satisfied with having
once deluged the land in blood, now
abuse the clemency aud spit upon the
authority of the government which
saved their forfeite.1 lives. Down

Missouri Coming.

The Republicans OF Missouri
those who believe III the party and
desire its success-havc unmasked
the marplots handsomely. On We'd
ncsday last a meeting OF the two Re
publican State Committees, aud Of
leading Republicans, was held in St.
Louis, to divise q method, il possible,
of securing united action thereafter.
The sentiment was well nigh unani-
nous in favor Of union. But at this
meeting it transpirel that the lib
eral Committee" (which engineered
the Brown-Schurz canvass last year,,
at 4 previous meeting by themselves,
had passed resolutions which cut
them off from entering into any ar
rangcment tor union of the two
committees. A glorious speech was
made by ex-senator J. b. Henderson
Ca supporter of Governor Brown
and other excellent speeches by 9TH
cr leading men, all declaring that the
causes which divided the party a
year ago were now removed, and all
desiring a cordial union for the Pres
idential contest. But wAen resolu-
lions were introduced advising the
two State Committees to unite in a
call for the next State Convention, so
that the organization could then be
merged in one, the plotters against
union were smoked out w. ii.
Grosyenor came 40 the front, and
stated that the Liberal Committee
had resolved unanimously not to
unite with the Regular Committee
in calling Convention. This brought
up several members of the Liberal
Committee, and Mr.. Grosvenor was
put in sight place" 1t appeared
tha. the resolutions We're passed by
the ''proxies" of absent members, and
that those proxies through Mr..
G., sought to impose an obligation on
other members OF the Committee not
60 in for union! Four OF these gen
tlemen announced their purpose to
unite withthe Regular Committee in
the next cal: Tor a Convention. and
stated that other members would FOL-
low their example. So only those
who intend to bolt the Republican
party will be engaged in the scheme
to divide it. Mr.. Schurz will now
be compelled to show on which side
OF that line he stands. We congrat-
ulate the Republicans Of Missouri
that the "new party schemers have
exhibited the "cloven toot,n aud that
any pretence on their part of repre-.
senting a Republican organization
hereafter will justly subject them to
: ridicale and ,contempt.-[ Darsaporl

The Con venfion.

1t is but just. perhaps, that we
shonld say, III general terms, of the
State Woman Suffrage Convention,
in session in Des Moines the past
week, that its proceedings were
characterized with good sense, jigni-
tys and the best of order. The world
has had an impression for five or six
thousand years that women cannot
talk without wrangling or counsel
without confusion. Again, many are
SO unjust TO the intelligence OF wo-
men as to imagine that Convention
composed OF ladies, assembled seri-
onsly to discuss serious subjects, can
be nothing more shan a quilting
party or tattlers' club enlarged and
let loose That there are such per-
sons, must be expected, and that
ther. will be for long time yet, no
one doubts, for the individual who is
supposed to kill such folks off, finds
them too many to be all disposed OF
at once.
We have never seen Convention
conducted with more decorum, or a
greater degree OF intelligent accord
exhibited in the routine of proceed
lngs, than were noticeable in this first
annual and genera! gathering OF the
friends OF common suffrage ia Iowa.
A majority OF the members were wo-
men. They took up Convention work
without being awkward. and con-
lucted discussions with spirit and
in q manner which many Conyen
tions OF men might well pattern from.
OF course there were hot spurs and
rash persons among them, but they
were few and, in majority, men. 1t
was . man who was SO weak as to
move that the reports being made
by representatives of the press be in
spected and trimmed before publica-
tion; 1t was women who voted his
silly motion down and left it with no
vote but his own recorded in its ia
yor. In some other respects, the Ia
dies, who, it Is 10 be said, took the
lead III the Convention aud in all its
aCetouS. cuOWCu SucHhSCiScS UctlcT
posted in matters OF general intor-
nation, and better poised in all mat
ters OF deliberatlon, than their fellow
workers, the men. The ladies', as it
looked to us, were the ruling and the
guiding spirits of the occasion, as
they ought to have been.
We would not endorse all that was
done by the Convention, but we
would be fair enough to give to it
the need OF having been, IN all re-
srects, well conducted. The Con-
vention strengthened the workers in
v hose name it met. not only among
themselves, but with the public All
who attended it were impressed with
the conviction that its members were
earnest and honest, and could see
that they were intelligent and well
armed. Whatever it may have done
directly, and that we know was much,
it accomplished much OF good for it's
cause by impressing the public mind
that its aaicrents III Iowa are band
ell together IN union and bond to APP
peal TO every honorable effort tor
success! State Register.

The Michigan Fires.

The Chicago and Wisconsin con-
flagra,ions have almost shut out from
notice the hardly less appalling yisi-
tation OF Michigan. The Cleveland
Leader has this brief summary OF these
disasters
"Beginning below Port Austin,
Huron county, Grindstonc City, a
place of three hundred inhabitants,
is half destroyed; then follow New
River, three buildings burned; HUI
ron City, five hundred inhaitants,
totally destroyed; Port Hope, six
hundred inhabitants, halt gone; For
est Bay, two hundred inhabitants,
every house gone; Sandl,each, four
hundred inhabitants, all destroyed;
Centre Haroor, one hundred and
fifty inhabitants, every thing gone;
Rock Falls, three hundred inhabi-
tants, half of the town burnt; Elm
Creek, one hundred and fifty inhab,-
tants, totally DESTROYED; White Rock,
six hundred inhabitants, every house
consumed; Verona Mills. three hun
drcd inhabitants, every house in the
place gone, except the minister's.
Thus were the little villages Of this
region scourged. The destruction in
the country was proportionately
great, the farming townships OF Sher-
idaH, Bingham, Paris, Verona, Sher-
man and Sandbeach were traversed
By the flames, which Tapped up ev-
cry thing in the shape Of houses,

The Next National Convention.

Tne Republicans of Missouri are
asking that the next National Repnb-
lican Convention be held in St. Louis.
This claim is eminently just. Though
the last Convention was held at Chi
ago, yet only two were ever located
west Of Cincinnati. The Valley OF
the Mississippi is entitled to consid-
Grafton, and st. Louis is the point 10
which all eyes will naturally turn.
Indeed. we do not see how any other
city can make SO good a claim.
There are also political considera-
tions Which should not be overlook
ed. Justice and policy alike favor
the selection. the National Con-
vention should give heed to this re-
quest. -Darenport Gazette.

relative to the abolition of its slavery.
\ bill has been passed appropriating a
large sum OF money tor tae purchase
