That remarkable growth of pllms al
luded to in our paper of Saturday, is fair
ly parallelled if not beaten, by a growth
of apples from the orchard of John G.,
Holmes near town. In the saloon of J.

of we suppose by its own weight, and
on it in a distance Of heclre inches were
tweaty-tleo good sized healthy apples. 1t
was indeed a cluster Of apples growing as
closely togetherand in every thing except
size, resembling a cluster of grapes. We
never saw any thing like it before; and
when doubts are expressed about Wis
consin being a fruit country, we challenge
the doubtcrs to roam the world over and
bring us two such specimens Of fruitful
ness as we have alluded to. The fact is

Guilty is the branches Of the trees are I'M

The End Annrnaches

We were appre h :nsiye that the Pierce
Democracy, by shutting and evasion,
might for long time procrastinate the
issue, which some time must plainly come
between the principles of slavery propa
gandism involved in the Nebraska bill
and its opposite. But we are glad to
perceive that however wrong and wicked
they may be, they are not disposed to be
towards The party Is marching boldly
up to the issue which its head, Pierce.
Douglass, & Co, have proclaimed. In
another article in this paper it VIII be
seen that the first authoritative conyen-
ton of the party in this state, has square
" and fairly endorsed the Nebraska bill.
Since that intelligence came to hand New

Convention of that State, met to nomi-

bill, and Nominated Seymour as its can

On Sunday last, Rev. Mr. Gould who has
charge of a church at Madison, was on a
visit to his friends here and was invited
to speak to this church, which he did NOR

evening, on which occasion the subject OF
his discourse WAS the authenticity Of the
Scriptures, and we cannot forbcar saying
that more eloquent and impressive CT
fort from the pulpit, it has rot been our
fortune to hear here or elsewhere As a

We alluded yesterday to the nomina-
tlonof DR.. lioYr for Congress in the ives
tern district. Since that paragraph was
pcnned we have further information, of
the details Of the nomination, and the
action Of the Convention. DR.. Mitchell
Of GAINESVILLE, and b. G. Eastman, at the
opening Of the Convention were the prin
cipal competitors for the nomination. \
number Of ballotings were had in which
the vote was divided mainly between
them. While the balloting was progress
ing, a Mr.. Rose Of La Faycttc County in
PRODUCED resolutions endorsing in cXplic-
it terms the Nebraska Bill and the Pierce
administration generally. After an cv-
cited discussion these resolutions were
pissed by a close vote. Thercupon
Mitchell and Eastman both withdrew
their names from before the Convention
aS they could not and would not run on
such platform, and Dr. IIoyt was nom
mattel as the representative of the prin-
cipIcs proclaimed by the Convention.
The Madison Jounal says the Green
County delegation also withdrew from
the Convention in body when the plat
form was adopted.
We give this to our readers as an i'm
portant event current political history.
In that district Democracy is clearly un-
derstood to mean the endorsement of the
principles of the Nebraska Bill. and to
this complexion must it and will it come
all over the country. An adherence t.
the present Democratic organization and
a connection with the present admins
trationcan possibly rcsultin nothing else.
In this Congressional district, the scnti-
ment being 50 strong adversely it is more
than probable the Democratic Convcn-
ton will dodge this issue or fceblv con
denim II, hut it matters not. The candi-
date of that Convention if elected will
come TO one of two ends. lie will fsH
in with the National administration. and
at Washington sustain the measures OF
the administration or he will bolt the
party, and practically take Republican
ground. OF course the people of this
district do not want him if he is likely
to take the former position, and they do
not want him for the latter for we have
already good and reliable Republican
i'll the field.

that money has been freely at work.
