WING Convention.

The Wing State Convention, which as
sembled at Madison last week, after having
nominated Hon. L. j. FARwELL for Cover
nor, and that gentleman having declined the
domination, passed the following resolutions
Resolved, That this Convention, by its al
most unanimous vote for Leonard J. Farwell,
for Governor, on the informal ballot, has in
tended to express its appreciation of the up
rightness and independence of character which
he has exhibited in office.
Resolved, That having thus placed before
the people of the State, the record of its re-
gard for an officer who has, in all his public
acts, looked only to their good, and believing
that their best interests will be promoted by
making no nomination at this time, this Con-
vention do now adjourn to meet again at the
call of the State Central Committee.

New SECTIONAL MAP OF WISCONSIN,
We have been favored by the publisher, S.
Chapman of Milwaukee, with a new and beau
tifully executed sectional map of Wisconsin.
All the newly organized counties, and all the
villages and important settlements, which
have lately sprung into existence, may be found
correctly located on this map. 1t is hardly
possible for any one to keep pace with the
rapid settlement and locations of new towns
without some such aid as is furnished by a
work of this kind. Every one who desires
acorrect geographical knowledge of the State,
should possess copy of the work. For sale

Our faithful public servants at Madison,
we perceive, have passed a resolution direct
ing the Speaker to issue to each member a
certificate for mileage for their attendance at
this present adjourned session. That the
Speaker will obey this resolution, we doubt,
and if he does that the Treasurer will pay the
amount we have no idea, as simple resolu-
ton we consider hardly sufficient to get mo-
ney out of the Treasury, even were there no
other objections. But there are more serious
objections. In the first place, the represent
atiyes have no equitable right to this mileage.
No person asked them, and no authority re-
quired them to make recess and come home
1t was q matter of their own will and pleas
.ure, if anything opposed to the popular sem
timent, and there would be just as much equi-
ty in taking mileage every Monday morning
for the recess over Sunday, as in taking this.
1t is without precedent in the history of the
State. There have been recesses before but
this is the first time pay has been sought for
going and returning. But in addition to all
this, it is opposed to the Constitution. The
Constitution provides only for one session of
the Legislature per year, (unless another be
called by the Governor which is not the case
in this instanee) and defines the mileage there
for. We doubt whether the matter will ri
pen to tar, but if it does it strikes us it
will deserve the reprehonsion of the tax-pay-

CANDIDATE FOR THE SExArE.-At a
meeting held at buttons, twelve miles west
OF this city, on Tuesday last, Salmon Epson
was nominated for Senator. The meeting
passed a resolution instructing the nominee
to vote against loaning The credit of the conn

the views Of Mr.. Epson on the subject of
loaning the county credit are in accordance
with the sentiment of the Above resolution.
In justice to Mr.. Epson Se VIII say that he
IS an estimable citizen and gentleman of
moral worth.

Circuit Judge.-The papers in this judi
eial district arc canvassing the merits of the
several candidates for Circuit Judge. Some
of the political journals out of the district are
also very officious in lending their advice to
the people of this district. Away from the
lake shore, w. Spooner, of Walwoith County,
appears to be the most prominent as peo-
pies candidate. That portion of our hunk
er friends, who are disposed to have party
candidate seem determined to bring Mr.. Doc
little, of Racine, into the field. Indeed the
party presses out of the district, appear to in
dictate Mr.. Doolittle as the proper man to per-
form the Judicial duties of the Office on the
democratic principle. Mr. Lowell, of this eli
ty, is a candidate for the Office, and although
belonging to the same party with Mr.. Doc
little, yet he does not desire to be considered
as a party candidate for the office. His legal
attainments, we believe are superior to Mr.
Doolittle's, and if the peoples candidate is to
be on the lake shore, we think there can be
but little hesitaney among Independent voters
as between Lowell and Doolittle.
