Horrid Murder.

A most attrocious murder has been
committed in Waushara County, under
the following circumstances
A man by the name of Furman. and
another by the name of Cartwright got
on to the same claim, and into violent
personal quarrel. They carried their
quarrel to the Green Bay Land-ofice,
where one got a duplicate, and afterwards
the other got, it reversed. They after
wards met at tavern in W aushara Coun-
ty, where Furman personally attacked
Cartwright, and Cartwright shot Furman
down. He was arrested and put into
Jail at Oshkosh. His trial was postponed
a good while, and his confinement became
tedious to him and the keepers at 0sh-
kosh. The Jail is an unfit one. and can
easily be broken. Nothing hindered his
escaping. We have seen him sitting
outside the Jail repeatedly. But he refu-
sed to go, saying he wanted trial, for he
was sure of an acquittal Finally, as he
lroatd not go dtcay, with every opportu-
nifty before him, and his trial was put off
unreasonably long, he was admitted to
bail, by Court Commissioner Buttriclz, of
Oshkosh. We copy the following from
the Oshkosh Courier ID.
Cartwright, on being liberated from
jail, hesitated about going back to his
family and home in Waushara Co. He
remained about town for two weeks or
more, and on more than one occasion
expressed to our citizens his belief that
his life would be in danger if he went
back to his home-the friends of For
MAN, the man whom he had killed hav-
ing uttered threats of violence against
him-He, however went home, and on
Saturday last, large number of men
living in the ueighborhood proceeded to
his house, and ordered him to leave the
country. Cartwright refused. The
mob attempted to enforce orders. Cart
acright then shot two of his assailants
one of whom fell dead upon the floor
and the other was MORALLY wounded
being shot through the body. The moi
then dispersed, but the next dav, being
reinforced by assistance from the village
Of Wautoma, which is about six mile,
distant, they again went to the house Of
! Cartwright, who it seems had in The
meantime made no effort to escape, and
having secured their victim took him to
a place about two miles distant and
hing him, and afterwards dragged hi;
corpse back to his dwelling with the
same rope with which lie had been put
to death.
These are the particulars of this bloody
affair as related to us BIZ person JUS
from the neighborhood where it tool
place. The names of the men who
were shot by Car!~right we did not
learn. Cartwright leaves a wife aEd
family of children.

Horses. Wagons, Harness.

Monday was busy day in our city in
the matter of trading. buying and selling
horses. \ number Of teams changed
hands, and the prices paid were way up
as much as $500 per span being paid
for several spans. We are told that the
unusual demand arises from the fact that
the broken down and ordinary horses
have been pushed off to work on the rail
roads, and owners are supplying their pla-
ces with good ones for their own use
The same demand and activity exists
in the harness and wagon making bust
ness. Our shops find it difficult to keep
up with the demand. and in the latter bu-
siness particularly, all the wagons made
are generally sold long before they are
completed.

The Goats Wool PARTY.

Douglass and his hackers are moving
Heaven and Earth to abolish the proviso
of freedom now applied to the territory
Of Nebraska, and in the same breath as
surfing the people all over the country
that Slavery nerer can go into Nebraska.
Can any live man understand the object
or necessity of abolishing this proviso, if
Slavery nerer can go there. Can any
person imagine what harm it is doing
what right it is invading-what interest
it is .ieoparding orinfringing upon. Here
the whole countryis suddenly jerked from
a condition of peace and quiet into tur-
moil of excitement, strife, and angry CON
dition, TO accomplish something which
those who seek it. tell us won't amount
to a row Of pins after it is done. The
ProviSo of Freedom in relation to Nebras-
ka is to be repealed and those who seek
it, tell us after it is done the country will
remain just as free as il is now and a slave
will never enter there. If this were all
true (Which of course no sane man be-
lieves) have not Douglass and his party
earned for themselves prominently the
title of the GOATS Wool Party?"

The title of the bill was changed to a

Mr. Cass congratulated the Senate on
the triumph of squatter sovereignty.
Here are some points which we desire
to call particular attention to in the above
proceedings.
1t has made one of the greatest and
most forcible arguments of these Nebras-
ka supporters, that the right of selfgov-
eminent was involved in this question OF
the repeal of the Missouri Compromise.
Mr. Chase. in order to vindicate that pro-
position and give in the bill, the people
of the new Territories " the right to gov
ern themselves" offered some important
amendments: one to give the people the
right to exclude Slavery. Cass. Douglas,
and their southern hackers, voted that
amendment down. Mr. Chase then pro-
posed to allow the people = to elect their
own Governor Judges" &c. Cass, Doug
las, and their allies, promptly rejected
that. Mr. Clayton then proposes to

dough-faces and Southern Slave propa-
gandists struck out.-ChjcdgO Journal.
1t is gratifying to see the name ofDodge
of Wisconsin among the negatives on this
occasion. OF the whereabouts of Sena-
tor Walker we have no account. The
humbug of claiming this bill as vindi-
cation of "Squatter Sovereignty" is ma
nifest enough when we see the vote on
the proposition to allow these squatters
to elect their own officers. And it will
be seen too that the northern doughfaces
at the dictation of the southern slavehol-
ders, have refused to permit foreigners,
even after they have declared their inten-
ton to become citizens, to vote. The OBJ
ject of this is, to prevent the Germans
who will flock in there. from multiplying
tina designs of the shareholders. Never
was greater outrage perpetrated, and if
the nation is not aroused it deserves the
ruin which is impending.

Mr. John Ayre, who returned
from Chicago yesterday. says the Treas

the reason why that work had not pro-

it had been engaged in settling up itsmat-
