Anti-E dsisise Slave Law Meeting at will

AT q meeting of the citizens Of Wilmot, Keno
sha Co, Wis, held January oath, 1851, for the
purpose of taking into consideration the Fugitive
Slave Law, the following resolutions were adop-
ted:
RESOLVED, That obedience to the Fugitive
Slave Law is rebellion against God in that il
offers premium to corruption in that it requires
us to be instrumental in returning to hopeless
bondage Gods poor, under penalty of fine and
imprisonment, an act which is repugnant to our
every sense of right and justice, and in violation
OF the divine law, which requires us to do unto
others as we would they should do unto us.
RESOLVED, That said law is the crowninc act
ofinfamy, and cannot be equaed by any previous
legislation of our country, and we brand all those
that had any agency in its passage, who shall
assist in its execution, or who shall counsel ODE
dience to its mandates, traitors to God and hu-
mainly
Resolved, That we will not obey said law,
under any circumstances whatever

LEGISLATIVE.

We had intended to publish brief abstract Of
every days proceedings of our legislature, but
the papers on which we depended for such alb
stract don't seem TO have considered it of suf-
fcient consequence to publish. Nine-tenths of
the business is purely local in its character, and
of this there is tremendous quantity on hand,
and accumuIailng. The only public matters of
Importance before the Legislature, are, the sub.
mission Of the Bank Question tie usury laws !;
the liquor laws; the abolition of capital punish
ment, and the land Limitation bill None of these
during the past week have been up for discus
sion. Mr.. Jenkins, from the committee on cor
poraIons, has made brief but pertinent report
IN favor of submitting to the people the question
Of BANK or no Bank accompanied by a bill
providing for such submission at the next gen.
eral election. The impression is that the bill
will be passed As to the fate of the other bills.
we have no certain means of knowing at pres
ent, but shall doubtless be able to inform our rea
ders in due season.

15-We perceive that the establishment of the
Kenosha Democrat, is offered for sale by its pro-
prietor, and from appearances, we Judge it has
partially suspended ISSUE for the present, at least
Reason-we are not informed, but we can ina
CINE but one, that it will not pay.
There may be difference of opinion on the
subject, but we think that one good looking, good
paper is quite as much c'edit to any place az
hoo mean ones, and we cannot understand the
po!cy of dividing the patronage which would
sustain one good one, to s:arve to death two good
for nothing. We know that men have their diff
ferent opinions, their preferences and their preu-
dices, and like to have an organ to grind out
tunes to suit them; and we know too that edit
tors are not unfrequently very egotistica and
dogmatical in proclaiming their own views as in
faibe, and treating with contempt the opinions
of Others and thereby inviting opposition; but we
don't know that all this is absolutely necessary.
We will say this to our citizens and all concern
ed if they will be content with sheet whose
editor will say honestly, sincerely, and earnestly
what he thinks will benefit the whole, and moth
ing else; treat with fairness, candor and cour-
tosy the opinions Of those who differ with him,
they can have it: and we say further, that just
as fast as the patronage will warrant the enlarge
ment or improvement, in any manner OF such a
sheet, it shall be done, so that the importance
Of our city may be fully represented.

CONGRESSIONAL.

AS soon as Congress perFects anything of ge-
neral interest, we shall get cut our paper in i'd
vance to spread the news The harbrr bill is
hung up in the house, and the postage bill sus-
pended in the senate, and the free land bill, nc
where. All the energies of the members are d.
rected to stop agitation, and they seem to have
been so successful as to have all gone to sleep
with reference to all matters Of public interest,"
Really Congress has grown to be nothing but a
body of politicians, congregating together to
make President, and dispose of all the other
patronage of the government, and all they do has
reference to that end. If the people were de-
pendant on Congress for ability to work out their
salvation, state of sin and misery would be their
inevitable portion.

BY an extract in another column it will be
seen that some of the magnates at Washington
have signed paper designed to put stop to sa-
very agitation. This, we suppose, may be con-
sdered dernier resort. Public meetings and
Union meetings without number have been held,
in all of which it was resolved that there should
be no more slavery agitation, but agitation con-
tinued, nevertheless and now the happy expe-
dent has been hit upon of refusing to give any
body an Office who ever opens his head or wags
his tongue on the subject of slavery. Well, we
don't dispute but all the offices are in the control
ofthese men, and that all who waht office will
obey their dictation-but then out of the 25,O0O,-
900 of people of this Republic, the number who
want or expect the Offices are comparatively
few--and consequently this happy expedien,
may fail from this cause The slavery agitation
will stop pretty much as the old lady stopped
talking in church. Happening accidentally to
drop mononosyable in church, she exclaimed
"Why there, spoke in church-dear me, now
spoke again--why, bless my soul, | keep talk
ing!" and SO it will be in this they will be
very-apt TO keep talking We incline to think it
will be some time before these big men can muz
zle the public mind or public press by signing
papers TO keep men out of Office. When the
leaves Gun prevent the winds from agtaiing
them, and when the vessels that float on the
mighty ocean can resolve not to rise or sink with
the swelling pillows, then, perhaps, these men
can refuse to be agtated They are but straws on
the great popular ocean; the creatures of the
popular breath, and as long as the human mind
is active, we incline to the opinion these men
will show corresponding activity.
Another feature of this move is worth looking
st. This demonstration to keep men out of Of
hce it will be seen, is confined to no particular
party. 1t matters not what man has been or is,
in that respect. If he agitates the slavery ques-
ton, wings and democrats will combine to put
him down. So mote it be. We are ready for
the emergency.
