stoned by the extravaganza Of democratic legisla-
lures.
The amount of the liability for which the people
of Wisconsin responsible, is about 81, 900, con-
tracted Tor the completion Of the Capitol-and oc-
casioned not by the ''extrava gance oil democratic
legislatures" but by default of James d. Doty,
whom the American upholds, to the people of the
Territory, as building commissioner. This is the
only debt that we know OF which the people will
be called upon to pay.
For the information of the editor OF the Amer;-
can, who appears to be remarkably ignorant in re-
aron to Territorial Matters will state, that since
the organization of Wisconsin,, there has not been
at any one time, a democratic majority in both
branches of the Assembly. In the first legislature
which assembled at Belmont and Burlington, when
the Milwaukee and Rock River Canal project was
started, the wings had majority in both branches.
AT the first session in Madison, there were in the
Council 7 democrats and q wings in the House
II democrats and If wings At the second ses-
sion there was majority OF wings in both branches
"a democratic vacancy in the Council having been
supplied by the election of a whg. Since then
parties have stood in the Legslature-thrd regular
session, Council 7 wings 6 dem; House of Rep,
II dem. : whigs-fourth session, Council, wings
q DEM; House, ID dem. 10 wings, vacancy;
so that whatever sins may have been committed
cannot be laid at the door of a democratic le-
gslature But there are several sins to be laid to
the charge of whg Council, not the least lmpor-
tant of which was their defeat of the safety fund bill
passed by the house, calculated to protect the peo-
pie from the subsequent (though antcipated) frauds
of the bank of Mineral Point and other banks and
their sanction last winter Of some of the ini-
qutous nominations to office ever presented by any
Executive for confirmation.

PILLS.

F|TIlESE Pills raise from the greatest
81. weakness, distress and suffering, %
a state Of strength, health and happiness.
TIE name of these pills originated from the
circumstance Of the medicine being found
only in Ike cemeteries Of Persia.
1t is now a settled point with all who
have used the Vegetable Persian PILLS,
that they are pre-emncnhy the best and
most cllicacious FAMILY Medicine that
has vel been used in America. If every
family could become acquainted with their
Sovereign power over disease, they would
keep them and be prepared with a sure
Remedy to apply OH the first appearance
Of disease, and then how much distress
would lie avoided and money saved, as
well as lives of thousands who are hurried
out of time by ncgicciing disease TO its first
stages, or by not being in possession of
remedy which they can place dependence
on. o. All who wish to guard against
sickness. should use the Persian Pills free
Is, when nccded: no injury can ensue, if
used from youth TO old age, when taken
according to the directions. IN
The admirable effect Of this compound
upon tac human system, led physicians
and families into its general use. Their
long established character, their universal
and healing virtues, their detergent and
cleansing qualities, Of their sPecifica ac
ton upon the gIandular part of the system,
are such as will sustain their reputation
and general use in the American Repub-
lie.
