THE ITIU.IC IIIf.EIUATS.
On various occasions during the past
six years the Hkkai.d has called atten
tion to tho bad condition of the public
thoroughfares leading to the ci ty, and
very many times the Hkkai.d has be
come tited of harping upon this theme
without seeing any great amount of
good accomplished thereby. We do be
lieve there is no other city in the State
that has such poor roads leading to it as
I'luttsmouth. We especially desire to
csll attention of the authorities to the
mi.-erable condition of the road by which
the city is reached from the southwest
one of the principal thoioughfares of
the county. Wc refer particularly to
the piece of road just south cf Mr. Max
well's farm, where a saddle blanket
would mire with half a chance. It is a
disgrace to the city and county that this
piece of road ehould be allowed to re
main in its present bad condition for so
long a time as it has, and we certainly
hope that something wii! be done soon
to place it in better repair. The com
mercial interests of the city suffer largely
from this neglect to keep roads in repair,
and it would pay the merchan's and
grain dealers of the city to have the
roads kept in good order if the proper
authorities do not attend to it.
THE I'IC-JI-C
Of the Presbyterian Sabbath School
held yesterday, in a. grove near the
northwestern portion of the city, was a
much enjoyed affair. The tables were
loaded with cakes and candies, pies and
sandwiches, and delicacies too numerous
to meu 10 1. Iced lemonade was manu
factured in a barrel, and all helped
itif liftitum. Icecream was dispensed in
smaller quantities. Every cue had an
abundance of the good things, and then
there was an abundan lance left after
some of the naughty boys pelted each
other with considerable pieces of de
licious cakes which they were unable to
di-pose of in the u-ual way.
The siins souci manner in which all
sought enjoyment was very notable; while
some were practicing gymnastics on the
horizontal bar, thkee cr four other par
ties were liying through t:.e a r with
perfect ulxtivbinr. in or on the swings,
and others were playing croquet, quoits
or pin or exhibited their equestrian ac
accomplishments in horseback riding.
All ages were represented from the in
fant in its mother's arms to the aged
grandsire, and all, without exception,
seemed to feci 'hat it was good to be
there, and ali doubtless cau look back
with pleasure to the day they spent in
the grove, in perfect, indifference to the
cares which ab-orb so much of out time

Iowa It'iiiocrnc-r-.
From tho Glenwood Opinion.
Th Democracy of Iowa have swal
lowed the Vullandighani platform. The
old codgers had a hard dose of it, but
they worried it down. Hence the De
mocracy admit they have been lying for
the pat lew years; that what the ite
pubhean party has done for the country
is the best. They accept the situation
'hit is. they say they do- They have
fought a big right, but they have not
kept the taith. They have gone back
on theii old time-honored principles, and
swallowed a llepubliean dose. For a
few years they have been saying thelle
construclion Acts were uip on-titmioiial
and void. Now they ay they licit then,
and that they ate not tmconstituf i'-nai
and void They have been saying that
the 13ih, 14th and 5th Amenduieuts
were revolutionary and void. Now they
say they were lying th' n, and tht tho-e
Amendments were fiO'i things and they
are part of the Constitution. Nice fel
lows : They constitute a heavy part o!
honest, substantial, consistent men tor
the control of the country. The Gov
ernment would be fearfuliy safe in the
hands of such men.

Justice Ilieht. The charge brought
against !:in was for cruelly and inhuman
ly whipping one of his scholars. He
was ariested by Mr. Stnawiy, lather of
the girl whipped, and the witnesses, as
examined by Mr. J. Y- ttone, who ap
peared lor the State, testified that he
had punished the irl in a way entirely
unwananted by the offence and not al
lowed by the Laws of Iowa. Mr. Shell
cross had no coun.-cl and no witnesses.
He. however, after Mr. Stone had fin
ished, set forth h's case in a fair litiht
and rested it with, the Court. Esq
II ght, after a few remarks as to tbe un
de irableness of his position in the ca?e.
gave his decision that Mr Shellcioss pay
