from him. And now here comes John Mitchell,
whose cultivation and education, whose warm Irish
blood, whose brave earnest words, and whose ex-

boldly justifying the most hoid atrocities of the

VOLUNTARY INSPECTION

The Sentinel recommends LAM establishing an
Inspector of Becfand Pork for the city af AIilwau-
kcc. 1t thiRks the packing business is becoming
large enough in that city to warrant it. But it
adds
The law regulating the inspection Of provisions
in this city, should of course be copied from that
in force in the cities of Cleveland Cincinnati, New
York Sc, and he it well understood is not to be
compulsory, but merely 70 he made use of by those
purchasing. subject to city inspection or any party
who may think it to his advantage 10 have his pro-
visions inspected.
With this We entirely agree. But why compei
people to have wood measured. or hay weighed,
unless they want it done Why not he consis-
tent If the Wood Ordinance was merely option
al to the contract of the dealing parties, i, would
be all we'll cnough-p.

The Small hill Law

The bill repeating the small bill law has not
passed the Legislature. The assembly passed
it with some most objectional amendments af-
ter it came from the committee, so that the
friends of the repeal really do not desire its
passage in its present shape. How the Senate
will act with reference to it remains to be seen.
In the mean time, we are pleased to inform our
honorable members that as Toots says lit is
ofno kind ofconsequence," as very few persons
recollect that there is any such law on the sta
tute book.

it occurred to that body that it had already

whole matter was POSTPONED for the present.

State Prison.

The Madison correspondent of the Milwau-
kee Sentinel, writes that
A message from the Governor announces
that the number of convicts in the State Pri.-
on the lst of January was 81, and that there
are but 81 cells. He recommends that the
Mork upon the main building, intended to
confine $50 prisoners, be proceeded with, and
contract has been let for the masonary of
the foundation. The debt of the Prison is
$4,000 at the present time. The Govern
nor recommends a joint committee of vista
to Waupun.
In accordance with this Recommendation, a
JOINT committee has been appointed to proceed
TO the prison, to send for persons and papers,
and examine generally into its affairs

Rail Road Bills.

Our State Senate has before it couple OF
bills Incorporating Il number of Senator's, rars-
tow and the balance, and some other dignta-
RES, into companies, to construct rail roads
somewhere in the lake Superior country. OF
course no such roads and no such companies are
aow wanted. Extensive land grants are no
doubt contemplated and if these are not secu-
red, the routes may some day prove valuable
and our enterprising friends realize something
handsome for getting out Of the way of those
who really wish to accomplish something.
In this connection, we should be glad to see
our legislature set itself detcrminedly against
all grants of lands to corporations, and if its
practices had the remotest correspondence with
its professions. it would. But we hope very
little from it, in this respect.

Andrew E. Elmore.

This gentleman has been named as one of the
Candidates for the office of Senator, to succeed
Mr.. Walker, should the fraud of an election this
Winter be consummatc6.
If it must be suffered, we frankly say that there
is no man in the ranks of the Compromise De-
mocracy whom we would moro gladly see succeed
to that post than Mr.. Elmore. We deem him the
fittest man of that party in the State. He is ra-
dical thinker, of generous, democratic impulses and
would make the best Senator of any bunker we
know of-p.

The Emigrant Agency,

The Madison Correspondent of the Sentinel
says there will be quarrel for the Emigrant
Agency, as two Of the Governors intimate
friends and advisers are opposing candidates
besides hosts of others, not so intimately con-
nected with the administration. This, like
many other things, is rapidly becoming mere
to reward political services, and
should be abolised. At all events the Legisla-
ture owes it to itself to steadily refuse to elect
any of its own members to this or any other
office, a practice entirely too common.

Last year New York had an impeachment

in all respects like Wisconsin. Her expenses

Wisconsin expended for the same items from
II to $4,000. The item of newspapers for
New York cost $1,000; for Wisconsin $4,000.
New York has about eight times the popula-
ton of Wisconsin. SO the expenditure of Wis
consin was proportionably about "A times that

u. S. Senator.

The correspondent of the Sentinel, thinks
the proposition TO elect a United States Sen
ator this winter, will prevail, while on the 9TH
er hand. the Free Democrat has different adj
vices. Surprising the Sentinel to be correct,
we, are naturally led to infer, by their haste
to do up this work now, that this democracy
don't expect TO be in power next winter. Or
is there some clique inpower now, that fears it
will not be again?

School Land Loans.

A few days since resolution was adopted
by the Assembly, calling upon the Secretary of
State for full information with reference to
School Fund Loans. A communication was
received from the Secretary in reply, supposed
to contain the information sought The rea-
ding was called for, as is customary with such
documents, when Mr.. Orion suggested that
perhaps the communication contained private
matter which it might be painful for individu-
ais interested to have disclosed and moved its
without reading to a select commit
tee The motion carried and Mr.. Orion was
made chairman of the committee. Whilst it
is very easy to imagine that there might be
much in such document that some persons
would desire to have concealed, it is difficult to
conjecture what there can be to which the leg
islature and public have no right Of access. 1t
has a bad look. 1t is suspected there has been
great favoritism in the disposition of this fund
and the public, to whomit belongs, have right
to know all about it.
