From the Belmont Gazette.

Itmay be truly said that, tive have fallen upoo o.
vii times," whsn the most BARETAcED, MALicIo US
and WICKED ISLANDERS are published to tho world.
tending to the injury OF private character and ndi-
vidual interest. So far as | am pEaso NAIl.y con-
cerned, am at the defiance of malignity itself
But when see the character of valuable public
officer attacked in PRINT, and myself accused as
his alder and abettor, liz the commission of acts of
injustice and oppressonn towards my fellow-citi-
zens,Justc to him, to the community, and TO my
sell, require, that aIch toI attacks should be in
dignantly and pointedly repealed.
The above remarks are induced by a commune
cation published in the Du Buque Visitor of the 5t
ult., over the signature of "CURTIUS." Souri,
lohs as that article is if uacontradicled, it might
leave the Impression on the minds of some honest
individuals, that governor Dodge and myself acted
III concert, i'll the establishment of Bslmont-,hat
the governor was interested in it-that the legisla-
tive council convened hereto further and foster that
Interest, to the detriment of the public good. In
order to hold this assassin of character, up to pub
lie view, that he may be judged accordin, to his
worth, have applied to the edito. of the Visitor
for his real name, and i'll have received that
of STErHGN HEMPsTEAD of Du Buque.
His character, and personal worth, will be com
pared with mine, by a just public, before they will
condemn as sotdid and mercenary, the high mind
cd the chivaifous, and honorable chief magistrate
of our territory.
In order efsctuay to contradict, and counter
act those base assertions, and to dsabusc the fair
fame of our worthy Goyeinof, l have deemed it
an act ofjustce to make the following
CERTIFICATE
do hereby certify, that governor Dodge had no
interest III the city of Belmont at the time of it's
location, nor has he at any time since, nor has he
now, any interest, directly OF indirectly, in said
city. l further certify, that there was no concert
or understanding between him and me, as to the
place of assembling the first legislative assembly of
the territory of Wisconsin.

BE it known that on this the 31st. day of October
1885, john Atchison personally appeared before
me, David Irwin, associate judge of tho supreme
court in and for the territory aforesaid, and made
oath to the truth of the statements contained in the
foregoing certificate.
Given under my hand the day above written.

LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY.

By the act establishin. oar territorial goyern.
ment, il is made the duty of the secretary of the
territory to record all the acts and proceedings of
the executive department, and to send copy oe
the same to Washington before the first .No,dav
in each year. Oar readers will observe in the re-
port OF the Legislative proceedings, that the socrs,a-
ny was requested to furnish tho house with state
ment OF the official returns of the census, of the
apportionnant of the mmebers among the SOW
raj co untics, and of the election returns These
documents were transmitted to the governor, lin
obedience 10 the rcqusiton contained in his proc
lamation, and the house supposed that they had
been delivered matter of course to the sa crsta
ny. By that sentlcman's reply, however, it will be
seen that the desired information ould not be Civ
eli, as such papers had been led in his Office.
We omitted to state in our last week's-paper.
that the committee in the case of Mr.. Burnett. who
claimed seat in the council as member for Craw-
ford county, reported that they had no control of
the case, and that the power to declare the number
of members for each county belonged exclusively
10 the governor.
Bills concerning the judiciary, sheriffs coroners,
Justices oftfe peace, are now before the assem-
bly,.

TO an eminent functionary, of the circumstances
connected with the publication of the letter of Cur,

OF bslmont, Or to the proprie.y of converting the

piloa Oh the person to whom this was said, to sup
pose Tor moment that he yiswed it as an apolo-
