The Free Masons.

A correspondent of the Albany Atlas,
says:
There is considerable excitement, Just
now, among the Free Masons. An old,
perhaps the oldest Lodge here, called the
Holland Lodge" has thrown off and re-
pudiated its allegiance TO the Grand LODI e,
and declared itself independent This lodge
is mainly composed of business men OF
known character, tact and good judgment.
and their proceeding is calculated to pro-
duce serious results. The reasons given
out for this step are manifold; among 9TH
ers it is alleged that the affairs oil Masonry
as now administered, are at variance with
the ''ancient land marks" That the mon.
eys accumulated for charitable purposes,
are improperly and otherwise applied
They charge that of $4,000 received in a
year, about one half is taken by the dele
gates to The annual meeting, and the rest
is uselessly spent in exorbitant salaries to
committees, officers, and for rents and the
notorious ''sundries." They repudiate also
the necessity of the long list of officers with
titles, as useless, unmeaning and expensive,
and aver that a better government can b.
obtained by emulating the republican, and
avoiding amonarchial form. There is some.
thing tall this which is likely togain MANI
advocates. X.

CAPITAL PUNIsHMENT.-The sentence oil
Mrs. Robinson, the Troy murderess, and
the strong probability that she will be hung,
have excited much discussion in the New
York papers in regard to the proprety OF
putting woman to death by choking her
with rope. The Detroit Tribune hopes
til at the whole subject of Capital Punish
ment may be re-opened and the propriety
of its abolition thoroughly discussed. How
Michigan gets on without it, is thus told us
by the Detroit Tribune.
In Michigan where capital pun ishment
has not been inflicted upon either sex for
any crime these several years, the people
would not listen for moment 10 a propo-
sition to return to the code of blood. Wien
one of our contemporaries few months
since, took ground in favor of capital pun
ishment, and proposing to discuss the hang
ing policy, the suggestion met with univer-
sal opposition from the whole press OF the
State, and from individuals so far as we
heard an expression The present system
works well in this State, and is popular
with the people. We believe it would work
equally well in New York. 1t is more in
accordance with the liberal and human spr-
it of the age than the strangling code that
exists in So many States in the Union, to so
little benefit to society.

The Glover Case--A Verdict at last

The case of GARLAND VS.. BooTH was argued
Saturday, before Judge MILLER, by Genera
PAINE of Milwaukee and J. T. MILLS of Grant
County for the defendant and JONATHAN L. AR
MOLD, for the plaintiff. The charge of the Judge
to the jury Transcribed any of his former efforts
i'll that line, if possible. We have heard but enc
expression from those who heard it. 1t left the
jury no choice, provided they needed it, but to
bring i'll verdict against the defendant. 1t
seemed even more partial towards Garland, the
Slave-hunter, than did the argument of his feed
attorney. The Judge, after arguing the case,
concluded by telling the Jury that Garland claim
for 81 800 against Mr.. Booth was as undoubted
as if he held a'promissory note against him for
that amount. A jury, enpannecd rs this was,
and compelled by preliminary obligation, for
the most part, to put their conscences entirely
i'll the keeping of the Judge-''to take the law
from the court, and bind themselves by oath not
to have any scrupies about it. 1eltaterer 1t might
be, as one of the rejected jurors has expressed
it-had no alternative under such q charge but
to bring verdict according to the direction OF
the Judge.
The jury, accordingly, were not ont more than
fifteen minutes, and brought in a verdict in favor
of Garland 1t is understood that their first bal
lot stood IL for the plaintiff and for the defend
ant; the second was unanimous.
This is the first pro-slavery triumph ever won
in the free State OF Wisconsin; and it promises
to be barren triumph. The Slavc-hunter has
not yet obtained his thousand dollars He has
his verdict, under an unconstitutional law This
is thing essentially different from the cool ca sh
in ones pocket.-Madis0n JourRai

The Observation-Disclosures.

A friend who has just returned from a visit as
far north and west as the north part of Sank
county, on the Wisconsin, speaks very encoura.
gingly of the agricultural prospects generally Of
the country through which he passed He says
the new town, or city, of NEWPORT, just started
lying on both sides of the Wisconsin river (tho
west side being in the northeast corner of Sank
county and the east side in the northwest corner
of Columb;a) is the handsomest town site he has
seen. He calls it as much handsomcr than Ma.
olson, as the latter is handsomer than mud hole
which we consider about exhausts the subject il
the way of praise. Newport, we may add, is al
embryo city, from which its projectors expect
great things. The Wisconsin river, at that point
is susceptible Of being easily damned. A com
pany has been chartered to construct dam and
The work is expected soon to be commenced
When completed, it VII furnish an inexhaustiblt
water power, which can be easily applied to the
purposes of machinery. The place is just at the
foot of the Dclls, and below all the instructions
20 rafting on the Wisconsin, and as it will be &
much easier and cheaper to float the logs to thai
point and have them manufactured into lumber
than to float the lumber down, il is very rcasona
bly, expected there viii be an immense amount OF
lumber manufactured at that point. The calcu
lation is, that the water power alone will make
city of several thousand inhabitants. In add
ton to this the Milwaukee ard Lacrosse road
crosses the river at this point and the proprietorS
perceive the place to be right in the natural high
way for all creation as it hurries TO and fro and
just where every person will want to pause ant
take breath, if not stop permanently, and the,
are confident of city of many thousand inhab
tants before great while, which shall have nc
rival i'll the state except Milwaukee, and they are
yet in doubt whether TO except that. We fee
hardly competent to decide on these expectations
we know its friends are very confident and as
they arc generally sensible men, we presume
they know whereof they reckon.
