WASHINGTON, Sept 8.
The republic Of this morning publish
CO despatch from Commander Platt, Of
the U. S. ship of-war Albany, lying at
Havana, detailing an interview which
he had with the prisoners shortly after
their arrest and confinement in the pri-
sons of Cuba.
Capt Platt states that be told them
before receiving any statement from
them, that they were in the full posses
sion Of the Spanish Government and
that nothing could be done for them.
He would, however, forward their
statement to his Government.
Capt. James A. Kelly acted as speak
er for the prisoners in the presence of the
others.
The statement made is very similar
10 that Of ID. Francisco A. Laine, and
represents that they had FIVE battles, but
with what loss to their number il was
impossible TO tell.
They brought with them $4,000 car
tridges.
Soon after their arrival they found
that they had been deceived and became
anxious to return 10 their homes.
They had been informed before sail
ing that fourteen towns were in posses
sion OF the patriots"
The country people generally fed at
their approach, and not one joined them.
Worn out with hunger and fatigue,
they threw away their arms and ammu-
milton one week Lefore their capture.
Capt Kelly stated that he had been
written TO and prevailed upon by Mr..
Sigur, of the New Orleans Delta, TO Join
the expedition, as had also many 9TH
ers.
He further stated that when the pris-
oners were told Of the capture of Lopez,
a cry Of JOY and exultation burst from
them.
The whole number Of prisoners is one
hundred and thirty-five.
Coils. Scott and Haynes, Of Tennes-
see, and another Of the leaders, are
still believed to be in the mountains.
The Republic says that on the receipt
oi these dispatches, copies were sent by
the President to the Spanish Minister to
further enforce the appeal already made
10 deal mercifully with the prisoners, in
view ofthe fact that they had been so
grossly deceived.

Mr.. CLEMENT Il noticed in the Madison
Argus of the 18th of June, an article on the sub
ject of the printing of the session laws for this
year, which seems to call for word of reply
The Argus says that at that time, no copies had
been received at the Secretary's office. | have
the Seeretary's receipt, for $50 copies delivered
two days previously, and as m any more had been
distributed as early as the 4th of June. When
1t IS understood that the volume is more than
twice as large as that of the preceding year,
(Which the Argus required the full time to CON-
pete) 1t will perhaps not be a matter of surprise
that its completion was delayed few days, be-
yond the prescribed time and when too. in ad-
diton, the distance between the Secretary's off.
ice, and the place of printing, required number
OF days for the transmission and recent of nee
essary information and documents, it will be less
wonder.
That there are more errors in the work than
there ought to be is not denied but it will be
generally understood, of course, that the Argus
has grossly exaggerated There are some errors
OF Importance, but mainly they are not of that
character-and whilst some were doubtless in
the copy, others are of a character difficult to a.
void IN putting ordinary manuscript in type and
others again, are evidently the result of want
of care, but all may be attributed in great meas
ure to the haste in which it was necessary to
prepare such mass Of copy for the press, and
in which, was necessary to print it, after being
prepared.
1t is possible, have no doubt, with perfect
copy, to print the laws without error away from
the seat of government, but think continued
experience will demonstrate, particularly if the
volume is TO be annually the size of the present
one, that it will be necessary to have it done,
where it can be superintendent by the Secretary,
or at least, compared as printed with the origin
ais on file in his office.

report, in the Assembly, last winter, on the Flu
gitve Slave Law, and against the Kings Eng
lish-W hich at the special request OF an Honorable
member from this city, we forbore to review
that he might have an original chance (Which
he never improyeJD to spread himself onthe sub

This is that same apology for a two legged
animal that stood up in the House (and although
a printer by trade,) said that the Statutes could
be printed at 25 cents per lo00-but he was SO
meana specimen of biped, that when living we
did notice him; and certainly we have no dspo-
siton to expose him when dead
But CRAMER of the Wisconsin, has happy
way of telling the truth, when he has mind to-
Hear him.
Mr. Laude has been plain out spoken editor,
but it was manifest that his views were too sec
tionaly Southern to be sustained by the People of
this state. Our People love Party, but they love
their country more; and all politicians who aban-
don the noble principles which have honoraby
signalized Wisconsin, will most assuredly meet
with POLITICAL burial from which there is no
resurrection.
We were little at loss to reconcile this
farewell notice of Ladue with the welcome TO a
sheet which has just appeared in this region, and
which if possible is more southern and bunker
ISL in its sentiments, than Laduo ever could
make his paPer-because we think our neighbor
has four times the ability of the above named an
imal, and has as good disposition as man can
have to please the southern naoobs. But be-
cause we don't understand it, is no reason that
it is not clear.

Our neighbor of the Democrat upon the Bank
Question, takes the Platonic method of imparting
instruction. Very WE'LL every one to his notion.
We hope our friend is not afraid 10 brave the
Democracy of the Argus, and those papers who
oppose Banking as an especial duty Of Demo-
cratic Press.
We like the talk, and the suggestions which
were thrown out in the "Queres, admirably
well. We think it would do in this attude
10 assert them in the form Of distinct and posi-
tive propositions, and dare the dsputer to a COM
bat of words.
| What if it is an "article" Of so called par
tv to waragainst Banks; what business has par
ty TO bind mans faith or dispute his right TO
the ntterance of what he knows to be true; or
more than all, to trampe upon the interest of any
part or individual of the community?
The time has gone by when it was safe or
proper, for any individual or party to assert dog
mas, and demand of the masses implicit belief on
pain of excision.
1t happens nowadays that there are more
members of the democratic party out of the dem
ocratic Church than it. And how does it hap
pen9 1t happens very naturally. Iii the d.
rect result of the preachings of democratic doc
trine.
1t is the end sought in the PRONUNCIATION of the
truth. And who has any right to command that
the fountains be sealed? No man. Who has
any right to assert this or that doctrine to be dem
ocratic, and deny the right of any and all mem
bers to discuss it? No man.
If these propositions are self evident we hope
our Democratic neighbor will take courage and
assert, Gas we'll as 'Query,') boldly his articles
of belief and give the Interpretation of his creed
! as he understands it, And if he can do this on
the question of the dollar and cent interest of
merchants-with how much more propriety can
he take up the personal relations of the race and
assert that ALL MEN CARE CREATED EQUAL" and
have right to LIFE, LIBERTY, and the PURSUIT
OF HAPPINESS.

relation to point at least, being one great err
ror among others. 1.-The will multiply the $4,000
which he says is more than the amount paid for
losses in this city during the last five years by
insurance companes-by two and half, he will
arrive at the truth much nearer than contained

lie, would advise that the "grcy goose quill'' be
let alone, and that he take to singing songs, a
much easier way of quilting, than putting his

their duty, so faithfully performed heretofore.

u The following from the Badger State, will
show how little sympathy the democrats of Rock
Co. have with the organ of Slavery aud Hunk
ers at Madison. 1t should be known that the
Badger State is published by two Brothers of
the Editor of the Democrat:
Our neghbor of the Madison Democrat, in
iustifying a paragraph in which he lately insti-
tuted comparison between our worthy Repre-
sentative elect to Congress, Ben G. Eastman,
and Robert Rantoul remarks as follows:
"We might with equal truth, proprety and
Justice, have said, Robert Rantoul the renegade
the man who has sold himself and betrayed his
party for office; who was one month the candi-
date of one party, and the next month of anoth-
err and antagonistic party Robert Rantoul the
aboltonst; the co-laborer with Sewall and
Hood and Wright of Seward and Hale, for dis
union and resistance to the laws of the country!
We might have said this, and more, and the facts
in the case would have justified u.s."
Now we have nothing to say in reference to
the Remuneration contained i'll the above extract
except to condemn its unmeasured bitterness
and to express our opinion that the facts in the
case do in no wise justify its charges and epthes;
but we wish to call the attention of the editor to
a fact of which he may not be cognzant Ben
G.. Eastman is an opponent of the Fugitive Slave
Law, and if public declaration to that effect. be-
fore a mass meeting of Democrats, accompanied
by pledge to do all in his power, in his Repre-
sentative capacity to effect its modification and,
if possible, its repeal, constitute him traitor to
the Constitution and political renegade--an alb
otionist and traitor TO his party, then he is
such character beyond doubt; for such dec
aration he made, and that pledge he gave, in this
village, in the Congressional Canvass which re-
suited in his election. And we have only fur
Their to add that bis constituents in this quarter
believe he will fulfill his promise, and if he should
fail to do will no longer have confidence in
his integrity either man or a politician.
1t will do no harm TO remind the pro-slavery
presses, that Wisconsin is Free Soil State, as
the election of her Congressman in every dis
trict proves; to say nothing about the platform
ofprinciples adopted in State Convention in the
fall Of 40.
