THE TRICKS OF WHIGGERY.

story is going the rounds in Jackson coun
iy that L. S. Wilson, our candidate for Dis
trict Juge and indeed the only candidate for
this post, has heen engaged in prouiding and
distributing throughout the District, Wing
Tickets, with his own name on them for Dis
trict Judge, thereby aiding TO elect Wing coun-
ty and Township officers, in order the more
certainly to secure his own election.
We are authorized by Mr.. Wilson, to pro.
nounce this report an entire fabrication. He
has had no connection with any Ticket, but the
regular Democratic Ticket
That there may have been Tickets put fort,
by Wings, with Mr.. Wilson's name on, is not
strange, when we reflect that they have no can
dictate of their own. But there is no prnpriety
in holding Mr.. Wilson, accountable for such a
result.
Let our friends beware then ofthese election
eering tricks. They the capitol in stock

THE CITY ELECTION.

The City election, for Mayor, Recorder,
Treasurer, Assessor, Marshal and two Alder.
men in each Ward, takes place on Monday next.
The polls are to open at 8 o'clock and the
places for holding the elections are at John
hries's, in the LIST Ward, Squire Gilam's office
in the End Ward, and the School House in the
3rd Ward.
For Mayor, the democracy present the name

In whatever hight our opponents may view
this ticket, we think it would puzzle any party.
to present class of men with higher claims to
public confidence and support. Search the City
OF Dubuque over, and you comet collect to-
gether men Of higher order of practical bu-
siness talent. And with all due difference to
the abilities of the gentlemen selected by the
opposite party, we may say, that it is practical
business talent, that we want to offic,,te in The
admin tratIon Of cur City affairs For once
Mt least, let us have a City administration,
which will give us some character at home and
abroad-which will command respect amonp
| our own citizens and confidence amonp the
business men of other cities
| In this, we design no disrespec, to members
of our present City Council, some of whom
possess high claim to business capacity and
| for whom we entertain deep sense of respect
But we presume none will differ with us, when
we assert that too little attention has been paid
heretofore, to the selection of proper men to fill
our city offices.
Let our good citizens then, for once put their
shoulders to the wheel, and elect the right kind
of men as City guardians The democratic
Ticket is before you, and the Wing party for
the first time make the issue boldly upon party
principles Choose ye then, whom you will
have to serve you.

WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENCE.

whole session, at length passed TO third
reading to day, by decisive majority. Mr..

the lands to the old States obtained but fifteen
votes Ofcourse. the bill would not have pass
ed without friends and Senators from the old
States Distinguished among those the ell
oquent Senator from Massachusetts, Mr. Sum

that of his predecessor, MIR. Webster, who, in
his letter to MIR. Neae, the other day, so fnrci-
bly, advocated the policy of liberal grants Of the
lands to the new States in aid of the constsuc
ton of railroads. Mr.. Webster, In the same
letter ,advocates,a as he has always done, the policy
o. granting homestead to every head of IA
family in the United States. upon the sole
condition Of its settlement and occupation

But, because the Senate has taken liberal
and correct course this subject, it does not
follow that the House will do so.
The Missouri Land Bill is under cloud in
the House. There is a majority of about six

tons, that is-lng rolling--the bill may be
brought up and passed. The mex: bill of the

For this purpose, three vessels only are to be

amcably to induce the government of Japan
to open at least one of its ports for the purpose
of friendly commercial relations The outra-

DISTRESSING 1SsaxirY.-A venerable .ano
well dressed lady was found seated ina carftagc
on the Levee, early yesterday morning, by of
fcer Owes of the day police, in wild and
truly distressing state of mind. The driver OF
the carriage could give no account OF her,
further than be took her from the steamer Dul
buaue at the inst igaton of young man, whom
he had used every endeav,r afieIward Ids to find,
but without success Officer Owes and others
Instituted search and found The young man,
who answered to the name of Robt. Trip, on
board the Hindoo, having paid bis passage
round TO the Ohio. Acting under the impress
SION that Trip designed abandoning the old
lady on the Leyee, the officers caused the car-
riage to drive to the police ofiice,and took Trip
into custody. y@ ss Is satsN&
A. the office, the carriage was SION surround
ed by crowd Of curious, attracted by the old
ladys tncnherent raving, and Trip was taken
up stairs and searched. Some eighty odd dol
lars in money was found on his person, all OF
which be claimed his own, and from his
own statement, and letter. found in his poss-
esson it appeared that the old lady's name is
Sarah Bell, wife OF DIR Bell, Of Wapello, Iowa.
| She has son OF the name of Thomas Bell, a
printer in Burlington who placed her on the
Dubuque at Burlington, to be taken 10 Philadel-
lphia, Pa, in the charge Of Tripp, who promis-
ed as he stated, with nj remuneration, to attend
her to the end of her journey. Trip further
states that a, the time of assuming the charge
of her, she laboring under slight aber
alton Of m,nd but from The moment the boat
left the landing at Burling'"n, her raving com
menccd and has continued ever since without
in'ermis sion Her son, he states, gave her
thirty liars to drfray her travelling expenses,
but she has either los, il or been robbed.
An effort was made yesterday to get her into
the Sisters Hospital, until her friends could be
advised Of her SITUATION; but, from some unex-
planned cause, the Lady Superior refused to re-
ceive her, and from dire necessity, she was
placed in the Calaboose, where she remained up
to late hour last night. Trip has promised
to attend her backto Burlington, and will leave
to-day if a boat goes up.
| DR. Bell, her husband, we learn from Trip,
was once a man i'm afflncnt circumstances but
has Of late become quite poor. The old lady
has remarkably well bred air and, we might
add, a peculiar appearance; her face, hair, and
whole exterior whilst raving, bringing forcibly
to mind SCOTS graphic description of Meg
Merrlies. She is to appearances sixty years Of
age, her long auburn hair, suffered to flow un-
restrained over her shoulders, being well tinged
with gray.
The young man Trip disclaims any intcn-
ton Of abandoning her, but his conduct, to say
the least, looked suspicious. 1t is 10 be hoped
she may return TO her friends and family in safe
ty.--St. Louis Mtetigencer. ~

YowAIaNp MIR.

We shall patiently await the result of the
Iowa Land Bill N the House Representatives,
now that it has passed the Senate, though by a
minority vote We still believe that il will be a
failure in the House from the fact that the rep
resen'aiivcs Of the people in the popular branch
Of Congress are more directly responsible to
their constituents. and are not willing to lend
the aid and sanction of the general government
to a scheme so purely sectional and so plpaby
y hunbug, when there other plans before
Congress eminen,ly national in their character,
and well deserving the consideration OF the gov
crnmrnt. And especially viii they be the more
unwilling to lend their assistance to go useless
and inpracticable an object as the Keokuk and
Dubuque scheme, when thereby such an nm
provement as that of removing the distractions
from The Mississippi and the extension OF a
great chain of railroads from the Atlantic To the
Missouri river, will be leopard ID. We beleve
| that it pretty well understood before hand
IN the Senate that it would not pass the House.

Our Township Ticket must be elected, and
for the more perfect union OF democrats upon
this ticket, let facts be submitted to a candid
community. For Justices of the Peace we pre-
sent Amos Mathews and Francis Yager for
Constables, F. McCrlney and Thomas Fsrey !;
for Township Trustees, Edward O'Hare, S G.
Fennimore and r. N lite; and for Township
Clerk, S. G. Fennilnore These are the men,

whom we expect the entire vote of the demo
cracy of Julien Township, 10 be given
Mcssrs Mathews and Yager present strong
inducements for the support of this community.
Mr. Mathews is an old resident, a sound dem
ocrat, a man Of good hard practical sense, ex
emparv in his department., and comes before
the community for public suffrage, forthe first
time In his Life. M .Nllhews will no doubt
make a prompt, correct and able dispenser of
Justice, and Peace. Mr.. Wager is strong
minded German, correct in his habits, mild
in his disposition, poor in the goods of this
world. unfortunate in having been crippled and
has discharged the functions Of Justice Of the

fact that Mr., wager is German, and yet speaks

usefulness in this position. 1t is a great con-
veniencc and saving OF time and money for
