Joint Session.
The contest between the two wings of the
democracy continues, and it wakes fercer as it
continues.
Sims entered into an elaborate defence of the
Benton party, and reviewed the course of the

time, and classed them faction of dsorg
who have been trying to place additional panlts
in the platform.
Stewart charged Benton with being rank
Abolitionist, and had never done anything for

and graduation bills.
Mr.. Brown replied TO the charges in the spir-

It always rejoices our soul when two of
Gods images make their escape from the brink
of that ocean of old maids and bachelors,
whence there are such slim hopes Of recovery
These were not on that brink, but were fast
fastening towards it, ike thousands of others,
with all the giddy careIesness of ducks and
geese in a shower. May warm love, bright
sun-shiny life. and the grace of heaven begin
and end their days of hymenial co-partnership.
In the cold slumbers of old age, may they be
surrounded with full-grown blessings to watch
over and to lament their exit into another and
purer heaven, where love reigns, even holier
than the purest on earth

IL O'Clock A. M. on Tuesday, by electing ].
ALLEN BARBER Chairman,-then adjourned

in the afternoon but refer bills 10 the commit

Bridge wanted.

We are requested to call the atten-
ton Of the present County Board to a
particular object of importance, in which
the people of Grant County are interes-
ted-We mean Bridge across Platte
river, on the mail route leading from
Cassville to Mineral Point.
The contract for carrying the U. 8.
Mail upon this route will be advertised
in the spring, and it viii be let, to COM
mence on the 4th of July following !;
so we are adYisedly informed. There
is not the sign of bridge over the riv-
er, and we are credibly told that it is
Impossible to cross during fourth cr a
third of the year.
It might be argea that Liberty or
Highland, within one of which towns
the bridge is required, has never called
on the county for assistance, except for
the bridge at McKinsey's mills. Cliff
ton has never asked for, nor received a
cent. Liberty is new and feeble town,
unable TO appropriate, and has no laid
out road connexion passing through it in
any direction, and cannot have for want
of this bridge. Either Liberty or
Highland will be compelled to keep up
a road through, for mail accommodate
tions.
The county travel ~ on this road
would be immense at ali times of the
year, If good bridge were built--the
route being upon natural track for a
road, except at the crossing. Almost
the entire population west of Platte ri
yer are interested in road leading di-
rect TO Mineral Point all the travel
from Clifton, Lima and Liberty in the
direction of Potosi, Beetown and Patch
Grove would be upon this route.
It is Of no use to erect temporary
crossing over such stream as Platte
That river is wide and substantial
work is needed over its current. There
ought to be appropriated by the county
q liberal sum for this purpose. The
route is direct through, only 26 miles
upon it from Lancaster to Mineral PIT
as now travelled, the distance is So
miles. It can be seen a! once that the
road is needed, and that only Bridge is
required to secure the road.

Reduction OF Rents.

Mr.. WIN. CoLE advertises certain
reasonable conditions upon which mi
ners will lie, allowed to dig on the
Bushnell Lands" at Beetown. These
lands ere.formesly held at such sx-hor-
bitant rents, that spunky miners would
not work on them, and lazy ones co uld
not afford to work them. The lands
were never proved very much, though
miners have always considered them E.
quail to, if not the richest in the Bee
town mines. The liberal terms offered
by Mr.. Cole, and the high value of min
eral, are inducements to miners, that
must result in a liberal augmenta-
ton of profits to the proprietor by way
Of rents, ane 10 the operative miner.
We are surprised that SO many pro-
prietors Of mineral lands don't narrow
their rents down to rates that will per-
mi their lands being worked. Miners
frequently discover leads upon lands
held at third or fourth rent, but rath-
er than make it known, they will con-
ceal discoveries, and defer working them
till the land p roprietor is removed by
death, or till his proprietorship is relea-
Sed by other means. Miners will not
pay unreasonable rents they would
rather conceal discoveries, or wait on a
change of property-perhaps connive
10 become owners of the lands. We
know miner who says that six years
ego, he made o mineral discovery, which
he believes to be immensely rich, but
the owner of the ground asks third
rent, so he expects to await the inevi-
table change that life and fortune must
undergo, in order TO secure what he
considers his rights of discovery.
We have always noticed that practi-
Cal miners who own lands, are the most
moderate in their rent charges that
mineral land proprietors who are ignor-
as.t Of mining are the greatest extor-
TONERS in their rent charges. There
are exceptions, but it is hoped that a
more enlightened policy will be adopted
for profit if not through liberality.

SPEcIAL.-We are compelled to sci
our advertisements in a smaller compass
than is common among country papers
but we think they will not be less noti-
ced thereby. The extended and uniform
circulation Of the HERALD in all the towns
of Grant Co., makes it common medi-
um for advertising for most of the towns.
We will endeavor to do the best we can
to have each item of business &c., ad-
vertised in our paper, noticed and read
by the public.

EDUCATION IN WIsconsIN.-Some l.
dea Of the liberal support extended TO
the schools of Wisconsin may be gath
sred from the fact that the amount of
the school fund Of the State, and the es-
Itimated value Of the public lands appro-
priated for schools and colleges, is little
less than ten millions of dollars, the in
|terest of which is 10 be forever appro-
priated for educational purposes.
{ So says the .NeO Yorker. The great
trouble we have to fear is that this inn
mense fund, annually accommodating, must
become a vast means for corrupting those
having control over it. Even now con-
troll over the school fund is sought for,
to secure other advantages than The bare.
salary for disbursing the interest of it to
Towns. There are already ways dew
sed to bleed the school reyepue and
doubtless biennial scranties at our cleo
tons for the charge over il, will be as
common as they ara in New York for
control over The Erie Canal and its rev.
enues. We doubt after all whether the
people Of Wisconsin are to be blessed
or cursed with perhaps cursed and
blessed alike.
