Efae State of VgiscOnsfER versus
The United States.

We regret to be obliged 10 chronicle another
collision between the eminently respectable pyin.
cipalities whose names make luminous the eu.
citing of this paragraph.
On Friday last, the United States Marshal at
aehed and stored III the Rnnals House for safe
keeping quantity Of goods belonging to one OF
our city merchants, by virtue Of a writ issuing
rom the United States District Court Matilwan
tee. The goods wore at once replevied by 9
process issuing from the Circuit Court of Wis.
cousin.
Upon being served with the latter process, the
Marshal, prompted by his attorney who accom-
panied him from Milwaukee replied that lie was
acting under the direction of court of highe,
Jurisdiction and should not regard the mandates
or officers Of simple State Court.
Wherenpon deputy Sheriff Stebbins waxed ex
ceedine wroth as became a thorough State Right
Republican and calling TO his assistance the pow
er of the county proceeded to the annihilatior
Of the Marshal The power Of the County, in the
person of the eminent pugiHst Kellogg at once
responded was colarcd by the Marshal and tn,
| combat began. For time the victory seemed
doubtful and at the conclusion Of the twelftl
round the Marshal's adviser essayed to pour OF
upon the troubled waters. "Gentlemen" said he
'.thc Comfy wi icn he's ever existed and shou1t
ever exist between courts of different jnrisdic
dons"-here lie was interrupted by the landing
of the Marshal and "the power ofthe county" un
der the stove, and the remainder of his speech il
probably lost to the world
The belligerents now paused for breath The
Marshal stationed himself before the door Of the
room containing the goods and messenger wa
dispatched to his hole (see Matt. s. 30. Luke 9
| So, )ior the Sheriff
| Mr.. Fox soon arrived Both parties proceed
ed to obey the familiar mandate of the bard OF
Jordan, and "to take of their coats and roll Vi

'In the name Of the United States command
every good citizen to assist mein guarding thos
goods" exclaimed the valiant representative q
our well beloved Uncle Sam.
I'm the name of the State of Wisconsin com
mand every good citizen to assist me in takinj
those goods shouted the Sheriff. The goo
citizens, i. e. Strong and Vease being thus dou
bly, summoned, remained IN statu quo twirlin
their thumbs in great pei plexity; Strong swor
inwardy, Veasie outwardly.
The Marshal when last seen by our reporter
was clasped in the embrace Of the Sheriff and hi
deputy, his heels twinkling over his head hi
head in the immediate neighborhood of the floor
yet even under these most unfavorable circum
saances, kicking, swearing and performing diver
other prodigies of inverted valor We learn how
ever that the State Of Wisconsin triumphed an,
that the goods have been safely delivered to tn
| owner.
