HOUSE.
TrEspAY, Feb. e, IS

TUESDAY, Feb. 90, 154S.
The Legislature Of Wisconsin adjourned
on the 22nd day of February in honor OF
Washington's birthday. The bill to re-lo-
cate the county seat of Washington coun-
ty, was lost in the House.
Mr.. VIEGIy gave notice that on to-mor-
row or some future day he would ask leave
10 introduce memorial to Congress rela-
tive 10 proposition made by Mr.. Whitney
for railroad from Lake Michigan to the
Pacific.
Mr.. CoTHREN by leave introduced
No. 81, Oh. of R.) GA bill to author
lie Hugh Mcfarland and Robert b. Allen
to construct bridge across the Wisconsin
river"
OF this bill, we beg leave to remark, that
talk is talk, but it takes money to build
bridges.
Wisconsin herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1846-1849, 1848-03-04

BY the last news from Madison, il APP
pears that bill was introduced into the
House by Mr.. vrReIS, providing for sub
hitting three propositions TO the people OF
Grant county, to wit: East and West di-
vision, North and South division, and no
division; the North and South division to
prevail, il il obtains mere plurality of
votcs---,he East and West division to pre-
vai' if Il obtains majority Of all the votes;
and No dirisioa TO prevail, il il obtains a
majority Of all the votes so that ii may
require about twice as many votes to pre-
vent any division MS il does for the siabbtng
operation. This bill is tho most mpudent
thing ever got up-we hope MIR. VrRGts
did not frame it;--and Of course no sane
Legislature will be guilty of putting such a
bill through the forms of enactment.

disease, as well as Scrofula, are eradicaied from

when properly used, as that the sun gives light

% The legislature is making good prog
ress in Its lajors, and will doubtless soon
adjourn. A resolution passed the Council
yesterday, to adjourn on Monday, March
9th, and it is probable that the session will
not be protracted much beyond that period
Thus far, a general good feeling has prevailed
in both branches, aud the amount of work
commenced will sufficiently attest the gem
eral desire of membess to do justice to their
constituents. We think it probable, how
ever, that many bills will have to be passed
over without a final action, in consequence
of speedy close of the session. -.argus.

PLAGIARIsM.--The Potosi Republican

PLAGnRrsM.--The Potosi Republican
challenges US to prone that their Sacred
Poem" Of week before last, is not plagar-
ism. 1t is not always easy to find fugitive
pieces of poetry in print; to hunt over the
files of all the newspapers in the United
States, it we had them to examine, in search
of a stray ode or sonnet, would be much
like hunting for needle in hay now
But no person need be ashamed TO be the
real author of the verses in question; and if
the Republican will produce responsible
correspondent in Wisconsin, who viii come
forward and claim the authorship of those
verses we win engage either to convict that
correspondent of plagiarism, or else to de.
fray all his expenses TO the peak of Parnas-
sus.
Since writing the above, we learn that
MIR. BlERcE, is the author of those verses.
We "cave.''
