The Crusade Against Wisconsin Honey

The Chicago Journal speaks of the pres
ent attempt of some brokers of that city to
discredit Wisconsin money, as follows:
1--WE warn the people of other places as
well as Chicago, that it is mere note-shav-
irg trick. The same thing was attempted
by the ney-brokers of St. Louis, against
the Illinois currency, about a year ago, but
it didn't prove successful-the trick failed
just as this is destined to fail in Chicago
The Missouri Republican takes similar
view of the matter. 1t says:
"The Wisconsin money is better secured
than any broker in Chicaso who has thrown
out" the notes, as we'll secured as any bank
in Chicago, for they have precisely the same
basis-the securities of different States
Our merchants, we are satisfied, will not fall
into the snare which was laid for them last
year, of refusing those or any other State
stock secured notes, merely to crafty the
whims and selfishness of bank-note brokers,
but they will make haste to sell all the goods
they can for stock secured money"

And one in our desire
The cannon bcoulS from town to town,

The ,oy-bclls chime 4 r things down,
Which chldreu's vo,ces bless.
For he that lung the broad blue fold
U',r manting land and sea,
One third part of the sky unrolled
Fer the banner Of the free.
The men are ripe of Saxon kind
To build an equal State;
To take the statute from the mind,
And make of duty fate.

Present and Past, n under-song-
Gro, put your creed into your deed,
Nor speak with double tongue.
For sea anl land don't understand,
Nor skies without fGown
See rigsts for which the one hand fights
BY the other cloven down.
Be just AT home, then reach beyond
Iodr charter Der the sea-
And make the broad Atlantic pond
ferry OF the free
And, hencefor;,., there shall be no chain,
Save, underneath the sea,
The wires shall murmur thro' the main
Sweet songs of Liberty.
The conscious stars accord above,
The waters wild below,
And under, thro' the cable woye,
Her fiery trrands 80.
For He that worketh high and wise,
Nor pauses in his plan,
VIII takethe sun out OF the skies,
Ere freedom oat of man.

What the wild waves saying,

But at night when tits dark and lonely,
In dreams it is still with me.''

Over some ocean cave
'Tis hut the noise of water
Dashing against the shore
And the wind from some BILE aker oror.

The voice the great Creator
Dwells in that mighty tone

Two Continents hast wed.

Recent events have brought this place in

Valentia or Kenmare, an island off the west

three miles south west of Cahirciveen, and
separated from the main land by strait of
one mile and quarter in breadth, and which
forms the most western harbor in the British
Islands. Lat. 81, IS n, Lon. 10, 10 W.
Length Of Island, seven miles; breadth. two
miles. 1t gives the title Of vi.count to the
Annesley family. Valentia, or Valencia, a
town or village at tho southeastern extremity
of the island of Valentia, Ireland, is beauti-
fully enclosed among the brown mountain
slopes. Population of town and paris, 24S2.
The har5or is deep, capacious and completely
and-locked, and being the most western part
of Europe, has lately attracted considerable

The Washington Union, in its issue of
Tuesday, thus formally excommunicates Sen
ator Douglas from the Democratic party:
Now, what we have to say is, that the posi-.
ton of Mr.. Douglas is one of essenti al hos
tility to the Democratic party. We maintain
that he is traitor by action, design and po-
sition. He is not reformer; for he denoun-
ces the friends and applauds tie enemies OF
the Democracy. He does not seek to apply
a remedy, but to destroy the patient-not to
remove disease but PROSTATE the subject
He is a traitor then, in his very nature be-
cause he forgets, disresards, and overlooks
the high interests of the Democracy, seeking
only to enlarge his own fame at their own
expense. His success in the field of his la
bors, would infict lasting curse upon the
great cause of popular rights; for he utter
ly abjures his associates who have stood by
that cause in wicked attempt to advance bis
own political fortune.
