~ The House has decided TO investi-
gate the charges made against the Super
intendent of the Central Lunatic Asylum.
We are gald of this. Any one who knows
DR.. Hills, or who is at all acquainted with
the management of the Institution since it
came under his charge, will require some
better evidence Of unworthiness than that

would call attention to the advertise
ment OF this very popular and highly
important road, to be found in another
column, showing the time at which
trains will hereafter leave both Mil
waukee and Chicago. 1t is the route
over which the travel from this
part Of the country, to the east and
south, must necessarily pass. We shall
continue to keep in our columns a cor
rected time table, for the information
of our readers. This road is now I'M
der the management of NJ. T.. Sykes,
Esq, the new superintendent, a gen
tleman of great experience in rail road
matters; and possessing great energy of
character as a man. He has placed
the road in the best of condition: the
result of which is rapid increase of
business. Nearly the entire travel
from Chicago to St. Paul, Lake Supe-
rior, and especially northern and CEN
trail Wisconsin, is sooner or later des-
tined to pass over this road.

REV. /. D. TRAcY.-This gentle
man, who last fall founded Methodist
Society at this place, has, by edict of
the Conference, been stationed at Sax
vile, Waushara County, to be succeed
here by Rev. Mr.. Rider. AS a man
and citizen, the Conference can never
send one more worthy than Mr.. Tracy.
Daily our attachment for him grew
stronger. He is a devout and consci-
entious devil-hater and processes love
and fear Of God. Whether this love
and fear is conglomeration or alter
nate, we are not aware; but certain it is
that he is pure man and practices bet
ter than his teachings warrant. May
his voyage through life be over smooth
sea, and finally anchor in the harbor OF
the mansion prepared for the pure.

following important news from Leav.

The latest news from Utah was
brought in by Mr.. Abel Gilbert ofWes-

on Sunday, the 10th inst, accompanied
by Col. Kane.
The Mormons were dispensing from,
Salt Lake City, going into the country.
Brigham Young had abdicated the
gubernatorial chair.
Gov. Cumming was met about thirty
miles from Salt Lake City on his way
thither, with an escort of about fifty
Mormons and others and preparations
have been made to give him a grand
reception as Governor of the Terri
tory.
Gov. Denver is at present in Leav-

telhgence of about the same import as

A Marked Difference.

-Four or five months ago, the Madi-
son Argus was very earnest and dill
gent in advocating the Lecompton
swindle, while the Milwaukee Neus
was firm and apparently sincere in OPP
posing the matter. The editor of the
1Argus was an applicant for the Madi-
son Post-Office, and the editor of the
Neacs was the incumbent of the Milwau-
kee Post Office; in other words, the
former was in pursuit Of office, while
the latter had dragged his game:''
which fact may partly account for their
differing views on the Lecompton ques-
ton.
A month or SO elapsed, and the Le-
compton swindlewas formally proclaim
ed the test Of the Democracy ortho-
doxy and the Shibboleth for all FEEDER
al otfice-holders or office-seekers. Pres
to! change! The Neacs immediately
went about, ran up the black flag, and
poured raking broadside into those
Democratic traitors, who were so Gin
fected with abolitionism," as not to be
able to see the beauties of Lecompton;
while the 1A1yus redoubled its fire upon
the enemy and gave renewed proof of
its zeal and devotion to our Pro-Slavery
Administration.
Another month, or more, glided by,
and the lucky accident of fire, with
"a lady in the case" determined the
sharp competition of the Madison post
office in favor of the old incumbent, Mr..
Jones. The Argus Immediately haul
ed out Of the Lecompton fight, ceased
firing, and lay by to ''repair damages"
and is now going along, under easy
sail, without firing single gun in be-
half of Lecompton and evidently indif-
terent as to how the battle terminates.
Not SO the Neacs. The editor of the
Neacs is still dancing attendance at
Washington, and the columns of the
Neaos are still full of Lecompton.-
But should untoward chance, or Elk
ecutive caprice, or Senatorial recusan-
cy, transfer the post office prize to 9TH
er hands, we do not at all despair of
seeing the Neacs follow in the wake of
the 4rgus and maintain an attitude of
earned neutrality" between the tribes

HERE is STUFF TO THINK oFi-The
number Of languages spoken is 1904.
The number of men is about equal to
the number Of women. The average
of human life is SO years. One quarter
die before the age of 7. One half be-
fore the age Of II. To every 1000
persons, one only reaches 100 years !:
To every 100, only six reach Is years !;
and not more than l in 500 reaches the
age of so years. There are on earth
1000, 5000 Of Inhabitants. Ofthese
SO, 1888 die every year; 81 1924 die
every day; 1870 every hour, 60 every
mlnute-or one for every second
These losses are about balanced by an
equal number of births. The married
are longer lived than the single; and
above all, those who observe sober
and industrious conduct. Tall men live
longer than shortes ones. Women
have more chances of life previous to
the age Of so years than men, but few
er after. The number of marriages is
In proportion Of Is to 100. Marriages
are more frequent after the equinoxes
that is, during the months Of June
and December. Those born in the
spring are generally more robust than
others. Births and deaths are more
frequent by night than by day. The
number ofmen capable of bearing arms
is calculated at one fourth of the popu-
lation.

this significant language.
We have all along opposed the re.

been heaped on the members by the

fence, for the People to remove the
Capitol to some spot where decencv

guage used by the 4ryus, in speaking
OF the Legislature, since the adjourn

Letter from Francis P. Blair.

The Tribune contains a letter of 8
columns from Francis p. Blair in reply
to Carey Jones touching the diving
opinions of Col. Benton. Mr.. Blair re-
garding his former account of his inter-
view with Mr.. Benton, while the latter
was on his death bed, maintains the
truthfulness of his version of his lam
guage then uttered by Mr.. Benton con-
corning Mr.. Buchanan.
He then proceeded to show from re-
corded evidence in Col. Benton's own
hand writing, that he was opposed to
Mr.. Buchanan and his administration
and was opposed to the settlement OF
the territorial question relating to sla-
very in the mode proposed by Mr.. Blu:
chanan, but on the contrary, resolved
on the agitation of the subject until the
opinion of the Supreme Court opening
all the Territories to the introduction
OF slaves was rendered abortive by the
action OF Congress In its maintenance
Of the political rights of the people.
That he was opposed to Mr. Buchan-
an not merely Oh the score of his pend
ing measures, but that he had recently
given IN his adhesion to principles, adj
verse to Gen. Jackson's. cardinal doc
trine IN reference to the independence
| OF the Legislative and executive depart-
ments on political decisions of the SUI
preme Court, and because he believed
him anti-Democratic at heart.
In proof Of these positions, Mr.. Blair
publishes in full a series of resolutions.
together with a preamble and proviso.
which Mr.. Benton gave to Francis P.
Blair, Jr., to submit to the Republican
members of Congress. The resolution
refers to the bred Scott decision of
the Supreme Court, denouncing that
decision as extra judicial, illegal and
void, and also in derogation of the pow
ers OF Congress to legislate for the Ter
ritory, and that consequently, it had
become the duty of Congress to vindi-
cate its rights by asserting it's full au-
thorlty to legislate upon slavery in the
Territories, and to declare it's total dis
regard of the decision.
| The preamble was intended by Col.
Benton to be affixed to the act for the
organization of Arizonia.
1t refers to the fact that by virtue of
the laws Of Mexico, that territory is
now free from slavery, and provides
that Notwithstanding the bred Scott
decision it should remain so.
MIR. Blair also refers to paper Civ
en- by Mr.. Benton to Col. Fremont at
their last interview, in which he sets
forth his reasons for abandoning Mr..
Buchanan, and also for reversing his
opinion with regard to COL Fremont.
