ATTACK BIZ woLvEs.-Mr. W. T. Pat

ATTACK BIZ woLvEs.-Mr. W. I. Pat
ton, resident of the town Ellenboro,' IN
forms us that while returning home from
Lancaster on the evening Of Monday last
just beyond Mr.. Rowdens', he met in the,
road five large wolves. They refused to
give the road and from appearance OF the
plainest kind were about to attack him, but
he beat them off with an ak handle which
he fortunately was carrying in his hand
The circumstance affords hint TO those
who travel afoot and alone to be on their
guard, as the wolves are just about starved
enough to attack man with wilful saw
ageness.

madisula journal.

The ludicrous predicament Of the Madi-
son Journal, into which that Journal has
been driven by its captain, pilot and cooks,
during the late Senate contest, is the muf-
fed topic in private political circles all over
the State. How it failed in its long engi-
neering process Of putting through Judge
Howe, an anti-State-Rights, hunkeritied
and clever go-betweenist, is the wonder
If the Journal is not yet apprised of It's
own weakness, let it try again to dictate to
a Republican Legislature, and threaten to
90 of with threeifourths of the party, un-
less Mr.. Howe or any other lion of its
manufacture Is chosen. The Republicans
have determined to not have an organ die
tator at Madison or elsewhere. The Jour
nal is not State organ, but a local organ
lit is generally the organ of Clique who
imagine themselves the head and all 9th
ers the tail. Whenever the Journal ceases
to command who shall and who shall not
be supported in advance of Conventions,
then it will probably be Republican
State paper, and command a considera bic
Influence all over the State-not before
Whenever it ceases to quarrel with Booth,
who publishes exactly the same kind of a
|paper, then it will be more respected
The Journal has for several years assum-
ed the dictator in advance of every
Convention and election and we do
not now remember of its success in a
single instance. It's medicine always,work-
led contrary direction. We hope the
Journal will soon be cured; if not, few
more doses of Doolittle will be given,
sure.

CoLoREp SUFFRAGE IN LOUISIANA -
The Creoles and Free negroes in Louis
lana, many of them the richest men in
the State, have always enjoyed the voting
franchise. In one of the southern munci-
palities Of the state, there are over 100 Of
these Creoles and free negroes and one pure
white man, all of whom gave their Sup
port to MiIliard Fillmore, except the white
nigger who voted for Buchanan. Toe
South Carolina papers just now are re-
probating the Louisianians about their free
franchise law, but the New Orleans pa
pers defend the Creoles and free negroes
who own a third of the wealth of the
State, and time immemorial, have been
among the most patriotic and intelligent
citizens of the state.

THE WEsT.-Eastern and southern peo-
pie are getting alarmed at the figures
likely to be exhibited when the census OF
1860 are taken. 1t is ciphered out that
the east and south will gain little, if any
in population and in members of Con-
gross representing those parts, while
the west will more than double. People
Of the east are rather rejoicing at the po-
litical prospect, but the south fear being
swallowed by the west, and are in terrible
fear that the west won't let them dissolve
the Union, nor allow them to send their
niggers any further northwest. 1t is be-
ing discovered that the western border
fuiIians are not safe friends Of the nigger a.
ristocracy, SO there is a rumpus abou. it in
the rich halls of the nobility. Speculate
as they have mind to, the center Of en-
pire is moving westward-pretty well
northumberland. Just now the current is
moving in the direction of Kansas, which
is terribly ominious to the drivers.
