CHIEF CLERK or THE HOUSE, VIM.
H.. Caldwell, of this county, was
scooped at the House caucus held last
night. He was pitted from the first
against four very strong gentlemen
from the Northwestern part Of the
State--to-wit: Col. j. w. Logan,
editor of the Waterloo (Blackhawk
Coz Courier, who has occupied the
position Of Chief and subordinate
Clerkships in the House heretofore,
and who had strong hold Oh Northern
Representative on account Of long
service as his chief claim also Judge
VIM. Toman, editor of the Indepcnd-
encc buchanan Coz Bulletin, . very
strong and popular gentleman also
Mr.. Wilkinson, editor of two news
papers in Benton County, and Mr..
Flynn, editor of q donble-header in
Adair County. Tho latter, however,
withdrew from the contest, and most
likely entered into combination with
Logan, and entered the field for I'd
Assistant Clerk. Logan was elected
Chief Clerk, on the first informal
ballot, receiving 81 votes; Judge
Toman had Ia votes; VIM. III. Cald-
well, III votes, and Wilkinson, votes
We think Billy made good fight
considering that he went there alone,
total stranger to all, excepting tho
gentleman who put him in nomina
ton before the caucus, Judge Sewers
of Oskaloosa, and considering also
that both our Representatives arr
Democratic. And from the further
fact that the Speaker and the Sccrc
tary Of the Senate was elected from
the Southwest, il could hardly be ex
pected that the next officer in import
ancc should also be taken from TIL
same section.

How the blood is uttered.

When The blood contains the acrid ele-
ments which produce rheumatism, gout and
veual disorders, the kidneys ought, for
it is their office, to filter from the blood, in
its passage through them those hurtful i'm
purities. When they do moi, they may be
melted to "a thorough performance OF their
duty, and the blood thoroughly depurated
by that admirable corrective of organic in-
activity, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Not
only is torpidity of the kidneys overcome,
through the agency of the Bitters, but diges-
ton is facilitated, billions tendencies conn
teracted, and the bowels stimulated to due
discharge of their function. which, in con-
nection with that of the kidneys tends to
free the system from the bodily refuse,
whose retention is 90 preiudicial 70 health.

stitutional disturbance. Unlike other ca
tharctics, they do not render the bowels
costive after operation, but, on the contrary,
they establish permanently healthy action.

careis required while using them.

The Centcrvillc Citizen says: "Last
week, at a public sale in Douglass
township, some boys on mischief bent,
filed pipe with gun powder and
tobacco on top of it, and gave it to
Franklin Smith TO smoke. The pipe
worked well for awhile, under the
influence Of the suction administered
by Mr.. Smith. Suddenly there was
an explosion, and the charge was
transferred from the pipe to the left
eye Of the smoker, inflicting serious
injury, which may result in the de-
struction of the sight. Before the
boys are through with the prosecu-
cution which has ensued, they will be
very apt to conclude that practical
jokes sometimes have two serious
sides"
