A ROGUE AT THE HEAD.-BERIAH
BRowN, who received over $4,000 in La
Crosse Bonds in 1856, and who is the reg
ularly nominated Democratic candidate
for Congresssagainst Judge Porter in the
Milwaukee District, has just written q
lengthy apology or explanation about the
Bonds; his explanation is so filed with
mystery and obscurity that nobody can
understand il. And as Democrats most
admire what they least understand, Beri
abs explanation is said to be satisfactory
1t should not be forgotten though tha
Brown got the $4,000 for services, in
desd he so acknowledges; but how any
mans services for few weeks of labor, O
even few months or years, can be worth
$4,000 is the rub! We have known
very good men to work whole life time
early, late aud hard, and at q venerable
age be worth scarcely $4,000! How I'm
equal is the fate Of man.

Hon. Chas. Dunn,
Belmont, Wis.,,
Dear Sir:
have been pleased to notice that
you have beef placed in nomination by
the Democratic party in this District as =
candidate for Congress.
As the Convention which nominated
you failed to pass any resolutions declar-
ing the principles at present entertained
by the Democracy of the District, take
it for granted that you intend to address
the people from;he stump, and enlighten
them upon that subject
At the present time it is particularly
desirable that the views of candidates for
Congress on all political questions should
be fully known. To that end, / propose
to commence canvass Immediately, and
to speak at most of the prominent points
in the District between this time, and the
day Of election.
shall be happy to meet and divide the
time with you at such times and places
as you may designate. | have prepared
a list Of appointments which enclose, bat
will vary any, or all to suit you. As
am anxious to have my appointments pub
lished as soon as possible, l will thank you
for an answer at your earliest convent
ence.
With sentiments of regards,
