THE WEATHER IN WISCONSIN.

One or two characteristics of the weather in
Wisconsin have always attracted our attention.
Where we were raised, among the high hills and
salt shores of New England, the effect of thun-
der storm was always to render the air more
pure, cold, and bracing: and it was always safe
to predict succession of cool days, after thun-
der storm; but in this region of the west we
have always noticed the opposite effect. Let it
begin to thunder and lightning, and it is safe to
predict that it will clear off hot and sutry, with
relaxing atmosphere, except in about one case
out of ten, when perhaps northeaster sets in
for his three days blow. If this difference can
be accounted for on the peculiar confguration of
the surface of the land in the two extremes of
country, it will seem satisfactory-indeed, the
wild and billy surface of New England, in con-
trast with the even and CHAMPAIGN surface of the
west, would appear to be the only cause, and we
shall rest on this theory till we find better.
The weather this summer has been hotter for
greater length of time than we ever knew it
before. We have had greater amount of thun-
der and lightning during this summer than we
ever knew before in this latitude.

ROWDIEs AND THE POLICE.

Last Saturday night, between ii and IL, a man
was seen knocked into the middle of Main street,
opposite grocery, by some young men thorough
ly known about town. They were doubtless ex-
cited with liquor, and were anxious g for more -
They were watched by the police, who interfered
promptly, and saved the man from farther injury
Soon after however, their unearthly yells were
making night hideous," with their discordant
echoes. But the police tracked them up, and
found them secreted in barn in the alley in the
rear of the neighborhood of Lyman's leather
store. They were Immediately arrested, and
placed in the "lock up," when they were re-
leased next morning, after handing over to the
Mayor v apiece, and giving promise of good
behavior for the future.
1t is passing strange to us why young men
who know as well how to behave as these Young
men do, should suffer themselves to become so
mad and excited by liquor as to forget that course
of propriety which is due to themselves and the
community in which they live 1t is not long
since some nice young men of another breed got
corned and crazy, and broke in some windows.
If is necessary to call names in future, for the
information of the public and the edifcaton of
friends, we shall do it.

EDITORS SENTINEL & GAZETTE:
1t would crafty those who are SO unfortunate
as to have suits pending in the various courts of
this State, and the bar particularly, to know why
the decisions of our Supreme Court have not vet
made their appearance.
If we remember right, the Supreme Court at
its first sitting, appointed Reporter, but the
reports, thus far, have been invisible That
Court owes it to itself, as well as the people, to
see that their decisions are made public, with as
much promptness as possible.
AS you occupy conspicuous post, and are
presumed to to know everything, will you please
inform us what was the purport of the decision
made last january, in reference to the election
OF County Treasures. Blythe revised Statutes
1t seems that all county officers are to be elect
ed this fall, except where the election has been
''otherwise provided for'' Did the court decide
that the election of County Treasurer had been
''otherwise provided for, or are they to be cleo
ted this fall. Somebody in the secret ought to
expose it. Yours. LEX

OF the Supreme Court. are in the hands of the

to the contested matter ofthe County Treasurers
we are informed that the Supreme Court, at the
last January term, decided that the election Of
County Ireasurers was Especially provided for''
by laws IN existence at the fall election in l84e:
that so lar as those officers were chosen at that
tne, such elections were valid, and such Off

How THE MATTER STANDS VIII our Dem
ocratic friends look al it.-Charles Durkee is the
unanimous and hearty choice of the Free Soil
ers throughout this District, as candidate for
reelection to Congress. There is no union
among old line democrats upon any candidate,
but they divided into at least six parties, each
having tavorites, and each preferring Mr.. Dur
kee TO some of the opposing candidates, while
MIR. Durkee is the first choice Of many in all the
parties to which these candidates look for sup
port. Now, we submit, that in these circum-
stances, if the democratic party really wish a
union with the Free Sellers, and do not wish it
to be understood that a man is to be tabooed be-
cause he voted for Van Buren,, the wisest thing
it could do would be to nominate Mr.. Dur
kee. And the fact of his having done well, in
Congress, in the Judgment of all parties, coupled
with the expediency of sending Representative
to Washington for two terms, renders such a
course manifestly both proper, and po!itic.-Free
Dem,

self, and the devil for us ALL" Better were it
for US, if we felt less envious at our neghbor's
prosperity, and labored more as one family. Our
sympatfies should always lean towards those
who labor, especially those who are poor. We
should ever be willing to help forward the Me-
chanic and day laborer, not only by giving them
encouragement, by extending to them capital and
employment; but, also, by giving them fai,,
/ compensation. What | mean is, helping them
to live comfortably, instead of sharkng them out
OF existence. No place can flourish and grow,
unless its mechanics prosper. Why not (? Be-
cause nothing can be accomplished in the way
OF improvements without labor. The land on
which this place stands cost ten shilngs an acre.
What has increased its value? Labor Capital
alone could never do it. Theory and money can
never build steamboat or rail road neither
can they build house or grade street. dig
ditch, or cut a load of wood. Therefore, any
policy on the part of property holders that does
not give encouragement in every possible man
ner to mechanics and all other laborers, and
which does not tend TO oneness Of interest, is ia
tai to the prosperity fthe place, and consequent
y to themselves. Unity is strength!
18th. Want of Capital. Capital never moves
unless induced by increase. This being the case,
rapid i'm provements and an active business an
pearance, invite and secure it, While the CON
trary drives it away TO let lots lie vacant. and
buildings become dilapidated, is poor way to
invite capital
Placing prospective value on property, and
waiting Tor its attainment without improving the
same, Is like setting pork value on a poor
swine, and waiting for its attainment, without
giving them more than food enough to keep them
alive.
If our property holders desire to invite capital
and secure it for the growth OF the place. lei them
show their faith in its prosperity by commencing
Improvements, by encouraging manufacturers
and labor by all possible means, instead of living
like the dog in the manger, neither getting out
themselves, or allowing others TO get in.
