The State Canvass-Report OF the Senate
Investigating Committee.

The Senate Committee consisting of Senators
Taylor, Dunn Smith, Barber, and Cobb, APP
pointed to examine the returns OF the late clec-
ton III the Secretary of States office, made their
report Yesterday. 1t consists of statement OF
the returns rs found by the committee without
any comments respecting the course pursued by
the State canvasscrs as q straight forward
statement Of the facts entirely destitute Of par
tizan bias IL possesses great interest to those
who are in doubt in regard to the charges made
against the State canN a$sers; and we shall en-
Gc0vor to lay it before our readers tomorrow.
From this report we learn that the official re-
turns, made in accordance with the law, foot

ING Bashford $40 majority. Door county IL
these footings is excluded along with the other
supplemental returns. This supplement how
ever, rests upon entirely different footing
from the other supplements, which have never
been before the boards OF county canvaSserS,
and bear all the evidences of collision, and
fraud. Admitting this among the official re-
tnrns. and BashfOrd is elected by the official re-
turns, AS they are now filed in the Office OF the
Secretary of State-saving nothing about the
fraudulent vote of Waupaca county, nothing
about the III Bashford majority legally retur-
ned from the Mukwa canvass IN that county aid
thrown ont by an arbitrary and unjust decision
If the partizan board OF State canvassers-by a
a clcar majority Of four hundred and thirty rofeS'
Such are the facts disclosed by this report,
and such is the monstrous and crying injustice
which has been perpetrated-the iuiquity and
fraud by which the majority OF the people OF
Wisconsin have been disfranchised, and to pre-
vent any investigation into which, the law de-
lay, the collision of public officers, and every
article which cunning can invent and vliiaIny
dare attempt, is now invoked. There is no de-
NAL OF the trauds-not the most attenuated
ghost Of a preteuce that Coles Bashiord did not
receive several hundred majority of the legal
votes cast on the 9th of November ast-nothlng
but the insolent, shameless, and brutal boast
that Barstow has got possession OF the office,
and that by the aid of the weak old man, the
present Attorney General, plant instrument
in his hands-''a mere nose OF wax which m.

DEFEAT OF THE EMpaNoR /

DEFEAT OF THE EMrGNoR FAUsTN l.
From Captain Barnaby, of the schooner Ellen,
which left Port-an-Prlnce on the LIST of January;
the Philadelphia Exchange has received advices
fully contirmatory of the previous account OF
the defeat of the Haytiens, with the loss of be-
tween 300 and 80 soldiers, with many of his
best officers, besides all his munitions of war,
provisions, and the Emperors military chest
containing MI the funds intended for the prose
cution Of the war.
Faustin l. had marched $4,000 men against
the eastern side Of the island, and his defeat is
represented as most complete
Captain g. states that Faustin had escaped
from the battle, but his place of refuge was I'M
known, and General Santander had offered re-
ward of 10 900 doubloons for his head. So great
was the feeling against him, that it was the gen.
era opinion of the inhabitants of Port-au Prince
that, if his sable majesty escaped falling into the
hands of the Spaniards, he would be shot by his
own people.

frightening.

The decision Of the Supreme Court, giving in
to the hands of Barstow's Attorney General the
entire control Of the suit contestng the Govern
orship, now before the Court, we'll nigh led the
friends of Bashford to despair Of the result, and
abandon the contest But subsequent action OF
the Court has Infused new hope. The Attorney
General, in accordance no doubt with the plan
marked out, made motion in Court that the
suit be continued without further action, unit!
June next. This motion the Court denied and
told the Attorney General very plainly that no
useless delay would be permitted, but that the
case should be pushed forward to completion as
rapidly rs possible. The next question to be
decided is that of jurisdiction.

BATTLES OF 1S55.-We see in the Chicago
Journal, a table of the battles fought during the
last year, with the number killed in each, by
whichit appears that % battles have been fought,
or more than one tor each week, with an average
loss of more than 1000 men killed in each. The
aggregate loss is 89S7.
The Journal says:
"Some of these figures are official, but they are
mainly estimates. and rather fall short or the
truth than exceed it. Nor do they include those
who have fallen bv disease, or in skirmishes, nor
the wounded, disabled, those who died in the
hospital OF The ambulance, or were irreparably
MANNED, Or missing or prisoners. The number
left dead upon the field usually comprises only
about one fourth Of the entire loss in battle
By this rule, the entire number swept out Of use
full existence by the wars of 1855, must have
reached over 100000 men. No year has present
Cd so hlced- record. since Waterloo.

The $3.50 600 State Tax

We call the attention of our readers to the
speech of Hon. L. P. HARVEY, in the State
Senate. which will be found on our first page.
The charge of Mr.. Barstow, in his message, that
the last Legislature had levied an unnecessary
and burdensome tax, upon the people of the
State, with view to create partizan c!amor,
for political ends" is summarily disposed of.
The more we look at this message, the Tore
ridiculous and foolish it appears. The idea that
a Governor, in his message TO an equal and co.
ordinate branch of tie government should so de-
base himself, and belittle the position lie oc-
cupes, is too humiliating. That right has Mr..
Barstow in the capa city Of Governor, TO inn
peach the motives of Legislators i'll their public
acts? The Constitution authorizes the Governor
to lay before the Legislature Statement of the
condition of the affairs of the State and to make
such recommendations as he thinks proper, but
It does not authorize him to arraign the Legisa
ture as a criminal for not carrying out his rec
concentrations.
The frequent charges that Mr.. Btrstow makes
against the last Legislature of partZan action
and partizan influence, is direct attack upon
the people through their representatives., and a
plain intimaton that the people don't know
what they want half as we'll as MIR. Barstow
does-that the people through their representa-
tives are quite incapable of making their own
laws If, as this acting Governor says, our rep
resentatives act only with a view to create par
tizan clamor for political ends, instead of for
our interests and the good of the State, what a
farce it IS to have a Legislature, when he could
DO it all so much letter. and so entirely free from
partizan bias For ourselves, we regret that
the Legislature has taken so much notice Of
this message. We believe that such docu-
ment even had there been no question as to the
election Of Governor, should have received the
condemnation it 50 richly merited 1t would
have furnished . precedent, that would have
Taught future governors what to expect, in ease
they should SO far forget their Legitimate iunc-
tons.

WISCONSIN DEMOCRACY ABRoAD.-The
(thus far) successful grab of Mr.. Barstow, fol
the Gubernatorial chair of this State, is likely to
give the Wisconsin Democracy rather unenvia'
bic reputation abroad. The game of manufac-
turing FIVE or six hundred votes to order, can be
better appreciated outside of the State, by those
in no way connected with the matter, but coolly
looking on, with unprecedented eyes, than among
ourselves, where we are all personally interested
one way or other. The Chicago Journal, speak
ing of the matter, after noticing the facts that
have been brought to light in reference to those
supplemental returns" says:
The history of politics does not furnish more
bold and shameless instance of tlihing with the
elective franchise, than is shown in this matter.
Proof complete and irresistible is al hand,
showing that votes entirely fictitious have been
allowed Mr. Barstow in sufficient numbers to
elect him, without taking into account the re-
turns swelied for the occasion. and vet the At
torney General of the State is using his influence
and position as the sworn counsel of the State,
to embarass and delay-and if possible defeat
the attempt to expose the fraud which disfran-
chises majority of the people of Wisconsin.
If democracy succeeds in this high handed
outrage upon the ballot box, it will have in
hicted deeper wound upon popular govern
ment, and the principles that underie it, than il
has ever been enabled heretofore to effect, by the
total sum of its iniquites.
