Politics at bod ge vile.

Dodgeviile has been favored, during the
past week, with three political meetings
two Republican and .one Reform-all
addressed by eminent speakers, and we
feel safe in saying that each of them did
good for the Republican cause. The Re
publican meetings were held on Friday ev
ening Of lastweek and Wednesday evening
Of this, the former being addressed by
Gov. Washburn and Hon. II. S. Magoon
and the latter by U. S. Senator 7. 0.
Howe. Both were large and en- thusiastic
meetings, and the speeches were able, elo
quent and convincing argumentsin favor of
continuing the government in the hands
of it's friends, and in favor ofjustice and
the protection of the rights Of the whole
people. l..
In striking contrast to these Rcpub-
lican meetings was the Reform meeting
on Monday night, addressed by the re.
nowned DR.. Wight, who claims to be the
founder of the Reform party. The mas
jority of the audience were Republican
who had come out for the purpose of Civ
ing the other side a fair hearing, and We
believe they were the only ones pleased
with the meeting. There was not the least
enthusiasm on the part of either the audi
ence or the speaker, ard the only place
where the Doctor grew any ways elo-
quent was when he eulogizcd the Repub'
lican party for its opposition to slavery and
putting down the rebellion, which would
have been applauded but for the reason
that the Reform portion of his audience
did not relish it very highly,
and the Republicans gfelt that it was
not their pace to furnish the applause
for reform meeting. The instant the
Doctor ceased speaking-it is disputed
point as to whether be was done or not
the remainder of his audience, which
had been gradually growing smaller from
the first quietly arose'as one mainland made
for the door. 1t is pronounced by many
who were present the deadest political
meeting they have ever seen in Dodgeyille.

The Reform party of Wis
consul does not defie its posi-
ton IN National questions. Is
such party to be trusted?

How IT WoRKs.-Some time ago a
German came from father-land to Gin
cinnati with $4,000 to invest. On
the advice of his bankers he purchased
some government bonds. He has drawn
his interest on them regularly, and was
pleased with his investment. The day
following the election in Ohio and in
diana he called upon his bankers t
direct the bonds to be sold. ''Wnat
is the troubled" was asked. F" Why Go
you sell them?' The reply came
quickly: az don't like these Demo
cratic Victories. I am afraid of them.
They talk too much reputation" The
bonds were sold. With the proceeds
a draft was bought on Hamburg, and
the money went back to the old coun-
try. This is one of the fruits of the
Democratic victories over which the
Reform papers are cackling with the
sense of an old hen.
~ The doctor" editor of the Arena
Star gives his readers the following good
advice:
In these days when .'the fever''is prevail
ing so !alarmingly becomes all to take a
little care of their health. If you find
yourself attacted with steady headache,
with aching of the bones, great weakness,
sensiiiveness to the cold, do not try to
work it off. Such attacks often do not
work off, to any advantage at ALL And
if at last you conclude to try little medi-
cine, do not get into an old jolting wagon
and ride half dozen miles through these
cold winds ito see the doctor..s

DEAR REpUBLICAN:-Marion is one OF
most beautiful little towns in the State of
Indiana. 1t is located OH the lines OF the
Pittsburg, Cincinnati 81 st. Louis, usually
called the Pan Handle and Cincinnati,
Wabash & Michigan Rail Roads. The
latter road, we will notice further on.
The Mississinewa river runs through the
place, thus giving health the year round.
The village is noted for its live inhabi-
tants, its courteous post master, its pretty
girls and wise men, of the two latter there
are not few. The soil here in Grant is
rather clayey, compared to that of La
porte County, although good crops are
usually realized throughout the county.
The streets are high and dry, and the al
leys are wide and clear. There are three
papers published here, the Chronicle, li9n-
itOr and the DemOcrat-all in a prosper
Gus condition. Two banks, and the usu-
al No. of other stores-mlrus the saloons

Captain, who remarked: "Well, yes, th'
road is pretty level, and as soon as W,

EAPOLEON's FLOWER.
The violet is the emblematic flower of
the Bonapartes, as the lily is of the Bour-
bons. When Eugene agreed to accept
Napoleon's offer of marriage, she express
cd it only by appearing enc evening in an
exquisite violet toilet-violets in her hair,
in her dress, even to bunch in her hand.
Louis Napoleon understood, and it was
his only answer Napoleon the First,
while consul, selected this as his flower.
1t was through Josephine asking hinf to
bring her bouquet of violets on her
birthday--a desire he was only able to
serve after great difficulty. lie cultivated
violets assiduously while prisoner at
st Helena; and they were profusely
planted over the grave of Josephine.
After his death his coffin was covered
with the humble flowers he loved 1t is
even said, that in the earlier days of Louis
Napoleon, he was silently made acquainted
with his secret friends by Il cautious dis
play of violets.
1t is curious fact that there are about
five hundred verses in Mathews gospel
that are also in Marks, more than three
hundred verses in Luke that are also in
Mark. and about one hundred and twenty
that are also in Mathew. Nearly one
half of the gospel 10y Mathew Is to be
found in Mark, and more than one third
of the gospel by Luke is TO bc found in
Mark or Mathew
