The LECTURE.--A very large audience
of our most cultivated people, including
many from surrounding towns, filled the
Baptist church beyond its seating capacity
last evening, to listen to Bayard Taylor's
lecture upon Ancient Egypt. The lecture
was worthy of the fame Of the speaker,
and full of interest and suggestion to all
who have read of that wonderful and
mysterious land, whose colossal monu-
ments of art, and magnificent temples, as
they are exhumed from the accumulated
debris of ages, furnish the evidences of a
civilization the Oldest on record, and the
grandest the world ever saw. We have
no time to attempt a synopsis of the lee
ture, which was an admirable bringing
together in regular sequence of all that is
known, or has been developed by scien-
the mighty empire of the Ptolemys.
The account of the wonderful discovery
of the key to the hieroglyphic alphabet,
and the means which this gave for devel
oping the history of the long line Of
Egyptian dynasties, stretching away back
into the dusky vista of the centuries, 5000
years beyond the birth of our Saviour,
had about it flavor OF mystical romance
that made it absorbingly interesting. The
lecture gave universal satisfaction.

OUR REBUILT CITY. Prof. l. ii. Bum,
the accomplished instructor in music, re-
turning to his home in Vinton from the
musical convention at Manchester, two
weeks since, stopped off in>our city to view
the improvements and renew old acquaint-
ances. He thus records his impressions
in the Eagle of last week:
Returned to Independence Friday ev-
ening, and my stay during Saturday and
Sunday was rendered delightful through
the generous hospitality of my friends,
Mr.. and Mrs. d. G. Backus, at their pleas
ant and happy home. Since the great fire
of last spring, Independence has exhibited
marvellous recupcrative energy. Thirty
one fine business buildings now stand
where none were in May last These are
of brick, TWO stories high, from IS to 100
feet deep, with beautiful fronts enhanced
by cornice, and in several instances plate,
glass, with all unsightly awnings and signs
across the walk forever banished Upon
the whole, the new Independence presents
the finest array of business buildings |
have seen in the interior of Iowa. The
attention of the citizens of VintOn is es-
pecially called to the establishment and
maintenance of free public1ibrary and
reading room. Here | find one that is a
decided success. The funds necessary to
proceed with were obtained by Il tax upon
the property Of the town, according to
Section 4G1 of the Code of Iowa, which,
upon vote of the people, allows an annual
appropriation of one mill on the dollar, as
per assessed valuation of town or city
property Will not Vinton emulate the
example of Independence, and furnish tC
its citizens these important means of in
formation and culturc?'

THE Conservative is driven to hard
straits to cover its forcgone return to the
Democratic party. 1t is compelled, in the
face of its declarations in the past, to de-
ny that it has heretofore held the Demo
cratic party equally responsible for the
Salary Grab and other abuses. With &C
cess to its files we are confident that we
could show that even this specific denial
is Incorrect but this is not needed to
show up the Inconsistency of its present
position. In the very article in which
this denial occurs, we find the following:
We have no defense for Democratic
salary grabbers; they were just as corrupt
as the Republicans, and are held respon-
siblc for their acts in assisting the Re
publicans, headed by the President, in
their nefarious scheme to rob the people.
Now when it is considered that the
Democratic Salary Grabbers were in
greater proportion to the whole number
of Democrats in Congress than were the
Republicans who favored the measure, in
proportion to the whole number of Re
publicans; when it is known that but for
the Democrats who voted for it, the bill
could not have passed, and that the Dem
ocrats in Congress had the power to de-
feat it, the extent of the Democratic re-
sponsibility for the outrage will be seen,
and the grounds for the Conservatives
former arrangements of that party, as an
equal, partieeps criminius discovered
But apart from this specific instance of
the Conservatives insincerity and double
dealing, it will not deny that it has re-
peatedly told its readers that there was
mo hope of reform" in either of the old
parties; but that for that the people must
look to the new party, in whose van it
was then serenely sailing, confident that the
favoring breezes would watt it INTO the
harbor of public favor and spoils. Now,
that the breezcs seem to blow toward the
old Democratic crmp, it veers its sails in
that direction, and, in unblushing disre-
gard of its former record, tells its readers
that reform is to come from Democratic
ascendency.

ANOTHER GUN CAsUALTY.-An esteem
ed correspondent at Otterville, sends us
the following account of a serious and
rather singular accident that befell Mr.
Roswell Salisbury, of that village, last
Saturday evening:
"Some friends from distance called on
Mr.. Salisbury after dark. After they
were welcomed to the house, Mr.. S. went
to their wagon to get the blankets, quilts,
&c. Among the things, unknown to him,
was a loaded shot gun. He gathered the
things in his arms and started for the
house. On the way, the gun slipped out
of the bundle, fell flat ON the ground and
instantly discharged its contents into Mr..
Saulsbury's foot, breaking and mangling
the toes in a shocking manner, except the
great toe. The wound was dressed by
Drs White and Bryant, who took the four
small toes off, or rather, out, as deep as
to the 'ball" of the foot.
"Mr. Salisbury has always been an in
dustrious man, supporting his family by
his daily labor. This accident at this
season comes hard on him and his family,
and they have the sympathy of our entire
community. j. N. H."

ELECTION OF A HoP.-The delegates
from St. James Parish, in this city, to the
special convention in Davenport, for the
election of successor to the late Bishop
Lee, which meets on Wednesday next, the
9th inst, consists of the following gentle
men: H. S. Josselyn, G. d. Jones and
w. II. Baker. On all subjects which
come before the convention, with the ex-
ception of the election of Bishop, each
Parish with a full delegation has four
votes; one clerical and three lay votcs-
In the election of Bishop, however, the
vote is by orders, the clergy voting first
until an election is had, when the laity
vote to confirm or reject the election
Should the laity vote to reject, then the
clergy take up and elect a second time,
but until the laity vote to confirm there IS
no election. JUXTA.

TEMPERANCE. The Temperance adj
dress by Mrs. J. E. Foster, the lady attor-
ncy of Clinton, under the auspices of the
Woman's Temperance League, last Tues
day evening, at the Baptist church, drew
together a very large and respectable au-
dience, which was amply paid for its at
tendance Mrs Foster is no ordinary
woman, and her ability not of the com
mon kind. We have rarely listened to {,
speaker of either sex who is better fitted
by powers of mind, eloqucncc and felicity
of expression to adorn the platform and
deeply impress an audience. Though ex-
tremely radical on some points, Mrs. Eos
ter does not fail to impress her hearers
with the weight of her arguments and the
earnestness, sincerity and eloquent power
with which they are urged She is Il
ready speaker, never at Il loss for the
right word, and by the ease, the facility
and aptness of her language, evinces a
well cultured and well stored mind We
are pleased to announce that she will
again speak before an independence au-
dicncc in the course of few weeks.
We ase reminded that we have not
made mention of the address Of Mrs Z. p
Freeman, of Cherokee, formerly of this
city, on the same subject, temperance, al
the Methodist church, two weeks since
We were not present, but those who at
tended speak in the highest terms of Mrs
Freeman's effort We hope she may
favor our community with another lecture
under more favorable circumstances, a:

Stop That Cough

Many persons hesitate to try II remedy
connected with the uncertainty of its ben
eftting them; while, at the same time, had
they confidence in that remedy, the eX-
pensc would be the least objection. With
this fact in view, we make the following
proposition: Any person suffering with
a cold, cough or sore throat, that will call
at p. Tabor & Sons store and purchase a
bottle Of Hale's Cough Cordial, use one
half Of 1t, and if they then conclude that
it is doing them no good, they can return
the bottle and receive back their money
No medicine ever sold in this vicinity,
that produced such magical results. Don't
fail to try it. Orange Williams, Proprie-
tor, GAINESVILLE, Wis. 11m6

FIRE.-About half past o'clock, last
Sunday evening, IA one-story house, be-
longing to Mr.. Weiser, near the river,
back of the residence of G. M. Durham,
was discovered to be on fire in the roof
The Steamer Company promptly rallied,
and although the distance was nearly Il
mile, arrived Oh the ground with their ap-
paratus in time to save the building, with
the exception of portion of the roof,
the damage only amounting to $50 or
$500. This was pretty quick work and,
reflects great credit upon the drill and effi-
cheney of the company The loss was
fully covered by insurance. Two rthree
of the firemen, in taking the steamer from
the engine house, ran into the trench dug
for the gas pipes in that vicinity and were
somewhat bruised, but not seriously.
