who shall be oovernor7

Within a week or two past, the heretofore pla-
cid eeneralites of the republican press with ref
erence to republican candidates for state offices,
have had some little spice added to them by the
announcement of the editor of the Free Democrat
of himself as a cannidate for Governor. The
Madison Journal and GAINESVILLE Gazette object
to his nomination, and the Free Democrat rejoins
at length. Noharm to the cause win result from
this. Personal asperities, however, may be ex-
cited which it win take long time to allay, tho
we trust even that will not follow.
Any person has a right to announce himself as
a candidate for Governor, or if he prefers it, to
announce his friend; but among the Republicans
of the state we have not yet thought of one whose
merits for Governor so far transcribed those of
hundreds of other good men of the party, as to
require even special allusion, much less excite
controversy West of us there is paper which
weekly passes in review Mr.. Holton's merits,
and insists upon it that he is the very man. An
other says that Coles Bashford is the one, while
another is equally certain that Howe is the man
of men, while one certainly and perhaps more,
thinks if the rural districts have chance to be
heard, Booth is sure to be the man. Now these
are all good men, but if chose to take the time
we could mention fifty other men just as good in
every respect. And when this man or that is
said to be the popular man, the wish is generally
father to the thought. The persons saying it
have no particular light on the subject, and no
doubt Fifty other men not named are just as po-
pular. Where then is the room or necessity for
discussing the personal merits of this or that man
or especially recommending this or that one.
we have RETAINED from doing it, not because we
had no personal preference, but simply because
we could think of nothing to urge in behalf OF
our choice that could not be urged for hosts OF
Others Nor in what has been said by others
have we yet seen any thing calculated to fix the
public attention upon any one man in preference
to another.
And the more popular man is sure he is, or
his friends are sure he is, the less necessity for
pushing himself or having others push him for
ward for it is quite certain to our mind that the
popular man viii be the nominee. We have not
yet felt shadow of apprehension that the Con-
vention would fail or blunder in its duty. We
know there will be no disposition to go astray
and we see very little chance to do SO.
Under the circumstances, with so many good
men and none transcendently great, do gentle
men candidates and candidates friends be mod
est. Take our advice-conceal your anxiety If
possible, and rest assured if you have the merit
you think you have, in convention like ours,
where merit will be peculiarly considered, your
chance will be first rate without any special et-
fort. We trust the Convention will exercise a
healthy suspicion of all anxious candidates, and
sift closely the motives of all anxious friends.

We clip the following from an editorial in the
last Kenosha Democrat:
"1st The whole world won't take Mr. b. as
an infallible standard. They will think for them
selves and act accordingly. I'd. They ought not,
for every soul is accountable to justice and TO
God for ITSELF and God has appointed it free in
opinion as action, being accountable to him for
the abuse of that prerogative. Sd. They can't

our opinions"
five ever uttered more ultra higher law doc
trino than is contained in the quotation we have
made, we will thank any person who will point
it ont to us. Thus we are told, individuals will
not take Mr.. b. as an infallible standard. OF
course, if they will not take Mr. B., they will
equally refuse to take Mr.. c., or all the letters
of the alphabet combined. But that there NAV
be no doubt on this point, we are told they will
and ought to think and act for themselves being
accountable only to God for the exercise of their
powers.
Indeed we think this is a triHe more ultra than
we have been or feel disposed to be. Certainly
il is broad enough to cover every individual as
sumption to do as he or she pleases that ever oc-
CURED or eyer win occur. We see no room for
ourseh and the editor of the Democrat to quar-
rel VIII he not, however, allow us to advise
him not to get along too fast.

present several of the most important ma
chimes for the purpose Of engaging in the
contest for the usual Annual Premiums of

best-Mower, in which struggle the compe-
tition was principally between Danford' S
celebrated Moving Machine, and the Ma
chine invented by J. J. Mann d. Son, OF
Westvile Ind The contest was a close
one. Both Machines surpa ssed every one
in the manner they accomplished the work
leaving the ground smooth as ever keen

however was awarded to Danfords Ma
chine, it being superior even to its excel

A very singular phenomenon occurred in
Neaufes, at the close OF the thunder storm
on Wednesday last. The lightning struck
little girl about seven years of age, COM
pletely changing her sex, and transforming
her into little boy. The lightning did not
directly strike the child, but reached her
by what is termed a return shock, which
will explain why his or her body exhibits
no burns or scars.

thing connected with Tie whole affair is the
stupefaction of the parents. The .phenom-
enon, which seems like miracle 10 them,
turns all their ideas topsy turvy, and de-
ranges their plans; for while they were
saving up to amass dowry for their
daughter, they ought to have been thinking
how to lay by m oney TO buy substitut

~ In another column will be found an ex-
tract, somewhat startling i'll its nature, from the
GAINESVILLE Standard, in connection with the muir
der of Mayberry at GAINESVILLE. We recollect at
the time the murder was committed, one of the
Janesville papers limited suspicion that May
berry was assaulted and hurried out of the world
by men whose completely with him in that or
other crimes, made it very necessary that he
should have no time for confession. This man
who has just been arrested for theft it will be
recollected was the man who first informed of
Mayberry, he getting his information from May
berry himself, who freely told him all about it.
Taking the fact Of May berry' previous intimacy
with McComb into account and connect it with
the further fact, that Immediately after the muir
der Mayberry went straight to McComb's house
and made him confidant without hesitation, and
finally, that the men who were active in assault
ting Mayberry, came and went from whence and
where no person knew, and there is certainly
ground for suspecting partnership of crime,
and the motive limited as being at the bottom of
May berrys violent death. In this view of the
case, what is to be done with the argument of
our clerical and other brethren, who attributing
the mobbing of Mayberry to the spontaneous and
impulsive demands of justice in the human heart,
made out case in favor of re-legalizing death as
penalty. We wait to see

Lg Visitors at Madison VIII do themselves We
ry great injustice if they fail to take trip with
Capt BROWN, on his steamer MONONA, which
plies on the lake of that name sd lake). We
have seen larger steamboats,, and some more gor
geously decorated, and now and then one thai
was little faster, bnt this is ample in all respects
for what is required of it. Ifitwere not for the
fourth,we think the third lake would be the hand
soonest in the world. We have heard those who
are familiar with the lakes of the old world ia
nous in song and story, give these lakes the pre-
ference for native loneliness. This loneliness car
be enjoyed to its fullest extent only by means Of
confusion, while you are reclining pleasantly un
der the awning of the deck, it glides with you
over the clear surface of the lake, and as you are
invigorated and refreshed by the cool breeze play
ing on it, there is revealed the complete circle Of
the banks covered with rich vegetation to the
waters edge, and combined with the art which
his adorned them, make up a scene which for en-
chanting loneliness certainly cannot be excelled
if equalled. See Naples and die, is the only ex
preston which has been found equal to the en-
thusasm inspired by the beauty of that city and
environs. We beg travellers not to give it up Sc
but hold on till they visit Madison, and take a
trip on the Monona with Captain Brown, after
which their mission as pleasure seekers will ma
turally be an end, for want of any new worlds in
that line to conquer.
p. S. Should any person wonder why Capt
Brown in respect to size, is so singularly dispro
portioned to his craft, it will be found on short
acquaintance that it was absolutely necessary
to build him large to accommodate the heart he
carries about with him.
