THE PUBLIC PRINTING.

This result will somewhat surprise the public rar-

the printing the Argus instead of the lowest

We learn with regret that our feiIow-crultsman,
Gen. KING, OF the Milwaukee Sentinel was found

to say IN regard to the matter. We are confideu,
that We echo but the universal opinion Of his nu-
merous friends in the " est, when we say that his
vote on This subject, has given them great dissatis-
faction.

speaker at the great gatherings ofthe people TO op
nose the encroachments of the slave power. But
aside from all which might be said OF him person
