BLACKT.TSTTNG

J. II. PICKLE, of Barton p. o. owes us for
subscription, So e6
We have sent our bill to him twice. but when
on our collecting tour we did not have a conven-
lent opportunity TO call on him in person. We
hope, should Mr. p. see this, that he will take i'm
mediate steps to forward us our pay
PORTER Back, of Barton, has forwarded to us
the amount of his Indebtedness, and paid us for a
year in advance. a failure in the receipt of some
money he was expecting prevented his paying US
sooner
As we reflected somewhat on his fair dealing
two weeks since, take this opportunity to make
the dmeade honorable. The reason above given
sufficiently explains the non-fufment of his prom
ises, and we here add that all his ncighbors with
whom we have conversed give him the best char
acter for uprightness and fair dealing Ozdukee
Times.
What comment this upon the system of Black
mail which this blacklistng in reality is. Here
the publisher of the Times blackists man, and
in the same article publishes himself to the world
as wanton calumniator-as having shamefullv
abused poor, but honest man.
In ninety cases out of hundred when pub
fishers blacklist their debtors, they are themselves
the worst in fault. They will coax man to take
their paper, who don't want it, by telling him they
will take anything, at any time, in payment and
then turn round and blacklist him.
Suppose a merchant customer of the Times
should wish to employ its columns to blacklist his
debtors; could he do so +! Most assuredly not
Then what right has the publisher to do what he
would not do for others.
This thing of subscription is matter of private
deal, and the publisher has no right to make de-
hnquencies thus public.
For ourselves, we trust every body, and every
body pays US. But whether they shall continue
to do not, we shall never undertake 10 levy
black mail by this understandable system of black
istipg.--D.

L. At the last session of Congress bill crca-
ting territorial government for Nebraska passed
the House, and failed in the Senate, only for want
of time. In this bill nothing whatever was said
"ahout slavery. The territory is embraced in the
Missouri Compromise and all parties at that time
seemed willing TO abide by the terms of that Com
promise. At this session, however, S. \. Doug
lass has introduced BILL which provides among
things for the repeal of the Missouri Compro-
mise and for the admission Of Nebraska as 4
State, with slavery, if her population will. In
view of these facts, who let us ask, are the slave
ny agitators
These men after soemnly resolving and decla-
ring that slavery agitation must be repressed, put
down, and crushed out, are themselves jealous in
stirring it even in its worst form This S. a
Douglass asks that compromises in favor of free
dom, long ago made, acquiesced in, and settled
shall be repealed to favor slavery and this too
when the slavery side of the bargain has been full
filed and is enioved. He exhibits not only the
worst spirit of the slavery propagandist, but the
spirit also of Il dishonest man-an arrant cheat
He makes solemn bargain, and after he get;
all on his side for which he bargaincd, he cody
repudiatcs, and laughs at his victim and whilst he
does this, keeps zealously bawiing that the slave
~ question must not be disturbed or agitated.
! The truth is, the agitation of this question come:
almost exclusively from that side of it. If no eff
fort were made to propagate slavery; it would no
be necessary to say word in favor of freedom
Freedom can take care ofitselfiu equal warfare
and its friends are only reused to action by the eff
( forts of its enemies TO crush it out.
For our own part, we welcome the strife. w
understand fully the folly of these attempts to re
press agitation The attempts itself, neeessaril,
au agitation, and by this agitation sooner or late
NH slavery he driven from our midst.

LEGISLATIVE.

Members having got their stationery, ordered
their papers, provided for their postage, hired
Chaplains and perfected all arrangements for their
personal comfort turning their attention to the
supposed wants of the public.
Naturally enough, the title of the first bill intro
duccd and passcd.wa " To appropriate certain
sum of money" and SUCH no doubt, will be the
title of the last one.
Two contested seats in the Assembly, have been
promptly settled. \ bill has been introduced into
both bodies, providing for repeal of the small
bill law. The member from this district has intro
duced petition to amend the law relating to tax
titles. In the Assembly, alter a struggle, the IL
quor question was referred TO the Committee on u-
dietary. This is considered Il triumph of the
Maine Law Men, they seeking this reference in pre-
ference to select committee to be appointed by
the Speaker because majority of it are supposed
to be friendly to the measure. The Judiciary
Committee is composed of Knowton, of Lafayette;
Webster, of Milwaukee; Davis, of Dodge; Orton,
Of Dane; and Remington, Ct Sank. Who arc
supposed to be friendly, and who otherwise, on
the Committee, we know not. The Committee on
Railroads. in the Assembly, which at this time, is
perhaps the most important committee of the body,
is composed as follows Hull, of Grant Ilad!ey,
of Milwaukee Norton, of Racine; Ernest, of La
fayette; and Torbert of st. Crox.

Adventures of a Californian.

One of our citizens, Mr.. Joseph Merrill, was
with many others, some three years since attract
ed to the land of gold. He labored faithfully and
accumulated some means. A! San Francisco he
dubbed his means with several others, and pur-
chased vessel for the purpose of procuring car
go of live hogs from some of the savage islands in
the Pacific, near the Sandwich group, where these
animals abounded in plenty, in a wild state this
speculation promising well from the fact that fresh
pork commanded some so cts. per h. in the San
Francisco market. The vessel reached its dcsti-
nation: the hogs were found and procured on
terms even more favorable than was hoped, and
everything promised well. The vessel wanted
some wood, in contracting for which, some diff
Guilty was oecasioned with the savages, the result
of which was that as the vessel was about to de-
part, the sayages fell upon and murdered the Cap
tain and one of the hands This threw the expo
dition into oube, on account of the property the
upshot of which was, that the vessel and cargo
passed into the hands of the T. States consul, and
was sold without our fellow citizen realizing any
thing for his venture He worked his way back
to San Francisco, where he arrived without cent
of means, and where he has again gone to work

pile over again.

think the body will have progressed to that prop

when politicians will seek to be members for the
sake of renewing their wardrobe generally, and
probably adding various little luXuries TO their
homes, not convenient to be paid for out OF their
own pockets.

TIE ERIE TROUBLE.

This difficulty seems TO grow rather than dimi
nish. The Company attempted TO relay the track
under the protection of the United States Mar
shall, when the Pennsylvania authorities arrested
the Marshal and put him in Jail, which put stop
to further proceedings for the time being. Prev
ously to that, the L. S. Authorities had arrested
two or three citizens of Erie, and sent them to
Pittsburg jail and Judge Irwin decides that they
must remain there until the breach is repaired and
the Ericans submit quietly to the laws. To off
set this, each of the imprisoned individuals has
instituted suit against the MarshaIs for false i'm
prisonment. 1t is said another attempt will be
made with increased force to relay the track, the
suit of which will manifest itself in good time.
Bonaparte said it was waste of powder to fire
blank cartridges at mob, and we fully agree
with him. If the U. S. has anything to accom-
plish at Erie, and legal right to accomplish it,
why don't it do it. We trust we are by no
mean: bloody minded but if nothing less would
accomplish it, we should not hesitate one hour to
blow the whole city sky high. We should give
our excellent friends of that ungodly borough a
lesson that would teach them, and their children,
and their childrens children civiity for all time.

C-The Governor recommends in his message,
as will be seen, "a change in the system of town
and county e5orernrent and of course there are
enough in the Legislature, TO second his recon-
mendation. We earnestly hope that no change
will be made, and feel quite confident that such
is the wish of the people of this section. In viz
tue of the peculiar duties to be performed by q
County Board-duties referring TO towns particu
larly, we'll to the county at large,we can think
of no fairer mode than the present one. Where
towns have distinct and conflicting interests in
county boards it is manifest that any system which
deprives each town of its representative, and COM
pcls it to be represented by citizen of another
town and a different interest, can never occasion
any thing else but strife and dissatisfaction. And
still more will this difficulty be aggravated by the
overshadowing influence any system of small rep
reSentation will give in the board to the cities and
large towns over the country. Until the lcgisla-
ture abolishes the towns themselves, it most GER
tainly ought not to deprive them of a representa-
ton in the county board.
A year or two since the Legislature, in making
an apportonment, increased, instead of diminish
cd its numbers, to the end that every part of the
state and the whole people might be more fully
and fairly represented Why then does it seek to
the opposite for the respective counties. Is it not
just important that the several parts of the coun-
ties should be represented in their county boards,
rs that the several parts of the state should be re-
presented at Madison? But the great point urged
is, that these county boards are large and cNpen-
svc. The legislature is also large and somewhat

C. An effort is being made to induce the Go
vcrnmcnt to purchase Mount Vernon. 1t is held
at 5000 900 while the real value of it, is said TO
be about $4,000. GOO per cent. is quite respcc-
table advance to charge to the account of patcrna
Affection and shows that the heirs of Washington
are disposed to coin into very substantial reality
the love of our people for the original proprietor
of their lands. We trust the Government will do
no such thing as to purchase these lands. AS an
individual and personal sentiment we have no kind
of reverence for the brick, and wood, and marble,
and dirt expressions of feeling. 1t conveys an
implied insult to one or the other of the parties
either that the services of Washington were of
a character not to be remembered unless perpetu-
atcd in undccaying granite, or that our memory
of virtues is SO transient and evanesccnt, that
we shall forget unless so reminded. The
country itself is Washington's best monument. If
its people but emulate his virtues, it will remain
a monument to him, growing in beauty, as those
virtues develop their fruits and if they cannot re-
collect and emulate them, when every happy hearth
stone is Il monument, we are afraid the posses
sion of Mount Vernon or of 400 feet pile of in
different rock at Washington, will help them but
/ little.
