Sour and Cross Grained.

The readers of the 'Daily Tribune"
have doubtless noticed that within the last
two weeks, the editor of that paper has man
Tested anything but kindness to everybody
and particularly to his own party friends.
As there may be some of our Republican
folks who may not be aware of this, we pro
pose to give them an extract or two, aid re
spect fully ask for information as to the
cause In the Tribune of the 10th, he gives
some of his political yoke-felows the fol-
lowing slap:
Worn out politicians and broken
down spectators cannot use It's columns
to bolster up their failing regulations with
out paying for it by the square, nor can
they take the paper more than four years
without compensation"
To be sure, the above extract is rather
mild i'll its tone, but harken to the follow
ing side winder which he gives some of bis
brother Republicans under the nozzle We
almost see the claret flow, and in.
stinclvely perceive some of our Shanghai
friends draw forth their cotton napkins
On the same date, lie says:
"Some of our pretended political friends
owe us for several years subscription. 7He5
do not like the paper, of course; they pre-
fer one which they can get for nothing
and We have no fault to find with the ar.
rangemeDt. as it costs us nothing to sup
ply them with reading matter, except when
we are compelled to supply customers thai
they steal from, or when they beg copy
from the carrier"
Now, all you Republican gentlemen who
are in the habit of stealing the Dai7g Tri
bune, had better quit, as we shall not be
responsible for the consequences. The
General is getting wrathy, and that long
tried and faithful sword which has laid il
its scabbard SO long, may be drawn forth
and who can foresee the consequences
How many Republicans will be left to tel
the tale

FROZEN IN A GLACIER IN SWITZERLAND.
"A letter from Switzerland, under date of
Zermatt Aug. Is, gives an account of the
death of Russian gentleman, named Ed
ward de Grotte, near the famous Wessthor
Pass. He had two guides with him, and
being of a daring and fearless nature, at
tempted to take a new route down the
mountain by the Flndelen Glacier. One
of the guides crossed in safety, but the
traveller, going next, sunk down into
creoosse, about sixty feet, where he was
locked i'll by ice and snow. lie conyersed
with the guide at the top, and told him
that he was being frozen to death. Ropes
were sent for, but when obtained were too
short. For five hours NJ Grotte was i'm
prisoned within these freezing walls, under
going the terrible tortures of being crushed
by the ice formed from the snow which
the heat of his own body had melted. At
midnight his corpse was rescued from a
frighttul grave, being found at a depth of
seventy-two feet Subsequent explorations
revealed the fact that the crevasse was
about two hundred feet deep. Probably
he would not have sunk down so far but
that he might have been pulled out by his
companions, if he had taken the usual pre-
caution of carrying an Alpenst0ck--a long
pole, carried, when travelling over the
glaciers, something like the one Blondin
uses, we suppose, when he crosses the chasm
Of the Niagara.

Organize! Organize!

DEMOCRATS, are you doing your Who'll,
duty in preparing for the approaching cleo
lion. You must not suppose that victory
is to be achieved without exertion. Our
Ticket is the best ever presented for our
votes, and is entitled to the hearty help
and assistance of each and every Demo
crat. To insure its election, the Demo
crazy must be organized and combined
Township Committees and District Com
mittees must attend to their duties, and
each individual Democrat. must feel that
the responsibility of defect shall not rest
with him. When this feeling prevails in
our ranks, VIcroRY is certain.
Your Ticket for State Officers is com
posed of some of the best men in the party
selected by the largest Convention OF
Democrats which ever assembled at Madi
son. Our Leader, HARRISON C. HO
BART, has heretofore led us on in many
hard-fought battle, and no Democrat
who wishes to see the principles Of his par
ty triumph now, will stay away from the
polls, when the interests of our State needs
an able head.
DEMOCRATS OF MANITowoc COUNTY
You have an important position assigned
you in the approaching contest, and we
hope you will be prepared for it so as to
deserve credit We have no fears for the
result, but if we could be faithful to our
selves, and faithful to the principles we
have expoused, let us stand by, and prove
our fidelity and .taithtulness, by vigilant
and active, untiring and watchful effort, to
give success to the cause we advocate and
sustain. To do this, let EVERY DEMOCRAT
BE AT TIE Polls ON THE STH OF NovEM-
Der NEXT, PREPARED TO VOTE THE WHOLE
OF THE DEMocRATIcTICKET If this is done,
Known othingsm and Fanaticism is for
ever laid low in Wisconsin.

Glow it Looks to a Man UP a

A travelling correspondent of the Vis-

Republican paper, and supported Fremont

At Fox Lake | struck the first streak of
politics, since the State nominations. Al
though not much of a politician myself, |
have heard so much dissatisfaction express
sed against Randall, that find myself be

never was favorite with the people. He
owes his election to no popularity Of his
own, but to the unpopularity Of the clique
that nominated his opponent. Harrison
G. Hobart has no such dead weights hang
ing from his neck as those that broke
! down Gross. Hobart is free from political
corruption, and unbiased by cliques. He
is sound Northern democrat, such as can
be elected to the Presidency in 1860. The
people know this, and are ready to join a
party that can elect such man. Fire

atics" on the other side, must be avoided

with the West, must be presented to the
whole people, and triumphantly elected
We can elect no man to the Presidency OF
these United States in 1860, who enter
tains stronger anti slavery principles than
Harrison G. Hobart; and the South will
vote for no man who expresses less pro-
slavery sentiments. Harrison G. Hobart's
ideas on national questions are identical
with those of Senator Douglas. The first
we can elect Governor, and the second
President, if we throw aside sectional jeal
ousies, and perform our duty as American
citizens.

Railroad from Green Bay to Lake
Winnebago.

The Green Bay Advocate, upon the sub
ject of voting a tax Of seventy five thou
sand dollars on the Real Estate of that CT
ty, to be applied towards building Rail
road TO Lake Winnebago, says:
g. Seventy five thousand dollars is small
sum to commence Railroad Without
we presume, though we are not familiar
with the details of the project, that the
simple grading of the route for even two
thirds Of the distance to Lake Winnebago
is all that is desired, in the belief that eth
er iron can be obtained upon the security
Of that graded route, or that such a con-
nection can be made with another compa-
ny as to get the iron and cars. This will
answer all purposes and if we can secure
a southern connection by giuing away our
graded route, which has cost us only sew.

of voting the money and making that dis
position of it"

appreciated by the citizens of Manitowoc.

4 Pile OF MONEY TAKEN AT TERRb
HAUTE.-A temporary agent of the Amer
lean Express Company at Terre Haute,
within the past two or three weeks, has
taken packages and parts of packages, of
various amounts of money passing through
that office in such sums as to make an ag-
gregate reaching nearly $4,000. This
was all staked and lost at gaming tables.
The last sum taken was an entire package
of $4,000 for the Pike County Bank.
This was all lost in one night at gamb-
ling saloon. Growing desperate at this
heavy loss, the last of a series of consider
able length, the express agent pulled pis-
tol from his pocket and demanded the
money or the life of the winner of the pile.
The money was handed back to him and
his depredations in the express Office dis
covered the next day.
Measures were taken to recover the
money, nearly all of which was ascertained
to be III the hands Of parties in Terre
Haute-mostly young men-in the habit
of playing cards for amusement and profit.
The position Of the parties holding the
money was such that, in order to prevent
open exposure, the whole amount of the
money stolen, staked and lost, with the ex-
ception of some $500, was surrendered to
the Express Company Indianapolis Jour-

Randall the Candidate of the
Know.Nothings.

1t is known that at the time Of RASDAL's
nomination, he was waited upon BY large
number of Republican delegates and prom
inent men Of that party, who urged him to
decline that nomination. This delegation
was headed by Senator DooLIrTLE, Con.
gresham POTTER, and some fifty or sixty
others who represent the Free-Soil-A
Slavery States Rights portion of the Re-
publican party. But, although he had
said that lie preferred that some other man
should be nominated for Governor, he de
clined 10 give the Convention the occasion
he had promised, and majority of the
delegates had desired, and it has since come
out that there were some eighty Know
Nothings in the Republican Convention
who held Council the evening after his
nowination and the delivery of his infa-
nous speech, who finally determined to
stand by him, and not allow him to de-
cline, as he had been advised by the anti
Know-Nothings of the Convention.

aRepublican paper, hits RANDALL under
the short ribs, as follows:
The only paper that feels at all anxious
to secure the re election of Randall is the
Madison Journal, which is edited by Ran
dall's $1,000 Librarian. Dr. Bugh has
been engaged by the Journal to write for
that paper during the campaign. His first
phillippc against the Democracy, and to
help Randall, appeared on Friday. The
craftsmanship Of the State Central Com
lnittee of the Republican party was taken
from the unconstitutional 50 900 Tenney
and given TO RubIee, the $1,000 Librarian

Edward A Jessel, auctioneerin Chicago
who is now out on bail for shooting a man
in New York, and was one of the gamblers
arrested in Chicago a few days since, got
into fracas with Michael Geary, the bill
lard man, at Chicago, on Sunday, when
the latter drew revolver and fired at Jes-

then made bis escape. Soon after, Geary
and man named VIM. Armstrong, got
into another fight with two men named
Sherman and Exner; when knives were
drawn, and Sherman received a cut two
inches long in the cheek, and Exner slight
cuts on the head and arm. Geary was ar
