wATIMEE BRowN.-In the whole his
tory of war and Instruction, was there
ever anything so ludicrous as this panic
excited by a hair Drained old man and a
few reckless adventures, whose only merit
is that they valued their own lives as cheap
ly as would any jury of their countrymen
summoned to sit upon their misdemeanor?
We clip the above from HENRY WARD
BEEcHER's paper-the Lndependent-and
infer therefrom that the Reverend gentle
man is not averse to "Old BRowN's' be-
ing tried, convicted, and hanged for his
misdemeanor. BEEcHER is not so fanati-
cal as to excuse and justify the acts of riot
and murder, in order to free blacks from
slavery, as one Of our clergymen did from
his pulpit last week. Not long since
BEEcHER preached most powerful ser.
mon in which he denounced in fttinp
terms, the wickedness and folly of all such
attempts to free slaves.

A Whisper to the Democrats Of
ITanitowoc County.

At the late election, the Democratic
State Ticket received majority Of from
1000 to HOO, while candidates on the
County aud Assembly District tickets fell
far behind the vote of their party. That
these latter candidates did not poll their
full party vote, was owing, of course, to the
disatfection Of Democrats, who suffered
their personal feelings Originating in for
mer opposition on the part OF some of these
candidates to the ticket of the party to
drive them into the support of the opposi-
ton candidates. One year ago the same
feelings existed on the part of Democrats
who supported the ticket this year, and the
opposition elected their candidate "a most
excellent man against an equally excellent
many for Register of Deeds, and came near
the election of an opposition candidate for
Sheriff. Thus we have seen one set of
Democrats at one election boiling, and at
the next election another set boiling the
candidates of their party, thereby securing
to the opposition the best offices in the
county.
Cannot the Democrats of the county
agree hereafter to settle all their Difficult
ties at their caucuses and conventions, and
avoid any split at the polls on election day
What say you? Shall not the Ratchet
instead of being raised against a brother
Democratic buried, handle and all, out
Of sight? Let US resolve to be united in
all our elections hereafter! Let the Dem
ocrats no longer feed the opposition by
splits or dissentions among themselves
You have the power, and should never fail
to use it in comforting all offices upon men
of your own party. We beg you will
resolve to heed what we say, and all will
be right; and Manitowoc cont lue to be
the Banner County of Wisconsin.

Our U. S. MARsuAL.-Mr. J. II. LEWIS,
who has recently been appointed U. S.
Marshal for Wisconsin, is receiving warm
and complimentary notices from the news
papers of both parties. The Madison
Journal, the leading Republican organ of
the State, speaks Of him as follows:
GAS none but Democrat could expect
the appointment, we do not know of a
man upon whom we feel more gratifed at
seeing the important and lucrative Office
conferred. Mr. Lewis is man of sterling
integrity in all his business relations he
will make an honest and conscientious Off
GER"
The appointment of Mr.. LEWIS seems to
meet with favor from all.

A boat containing thirty three ladies, with
their husbands, landed safely after knock

Twenty-six are dead, and none of the bodies

Our next President.

We are often amused at the chucklng
Of the Republicans about imaginary dis
satisfaction III the Democratic party, and
the uncertainty of uniting on candidate
for the next Presidency. Our Republican
friends know little of the spirit of Deinoc-
raty. There never was a time when there
was more perfect unity Of feeling upon the
cardinal principles of our party. Perhaps
he Opposition would like to know who
the Democratic candidate will be! 1t is
of secondary importance to Democrats,
and Republicans will have to wait the re-
suit Of the Convention of choice and true
spirits which will meet at Charleston next
Spring. 1865 " - -"
The Republican papers say that if Mr..
DOUGLASS is not nominated, he will sup
port the nominee of the OPPOSITION
This shows upon what slender founda-
ton our opponents build their hopes of
eIecting WIN II SEWARD to the Presiden-
cy. If Mr.. DOUGLASS would sacrifice him
self and the hard earned reputation of
long life spent in opposition to the very
measures Of which SEWARD is claimed to
be the embodiment" and now support
them-and If the people-the conservative
1oeople of the Union-would prove recreant
to themselves, and reverse the verdict of
condemnation which they SO emphatically
pronounced against Aboliiionism and Sec
tionalism in the election Of President b.
cHANAN-and if thoseDemocrats who have
been Denounced as ru6ians," " dough-
faces" &c will turn and elevate the man
who labored so hard to degrade them
then, and not till then, will WM. Ii. Sew
ARD be elected. The nominee of the Dem
ocratic National Convention will be our
next President.

THE COMING WINTER.-The St. Paul
Times says that the papers notice as pre-
monitory signs of cold winter, that musk
rats have built their huts very low in the
marshes this fall-that squirrels are going
south, that corn husks are very thick, and
adds: 1--WE have never known a fall
when the same signs were not noticed :;
but this year there is a stronger intimation
of cold weather in the fact that gophers
carry their nuts lower down in the ground
than ever before"
We will risk the musk-rats, the SOUR
rels, and the gophers, if our subscribers
will be prompt in furnishing us with plenty
of wood and potatoes, and occasionally a
good chunk of pork or beef. Turkeys,
chickens, -four, eggs, and other farmers
produce will not be refused at the Pilot
office. Bring them along.

Cord WboD.--The Kewaunee Enter
prise, in copying an article from the Pilot
on the subject of getting out cord wood
and giving employment to laborers this
winter, says, cit seems to be business
particularly suited to the winter months,
and as there is no reasonable doubt but
that there will be additional steamboats,
landing freights here, and obtaining their
supplies of wood, we should advise every
one who can furnish provisions to employ
all the men they can pay to get out good
supply Of cord wood, for there is good rea
son to believe that another season it will
bring much better prices than it has this,
and we hope to see a good number Of la
borers fully employed at fair prices"

The UERMIrA miles from
Nashville, Tenn, on good road, is what
was the home of Gen. JACKSON. Though
the grounds and tombs of the JACKSON
family have been purchased by the State
of Tennessee, yet there have been no i'm
provements about them, and decay has
commenced its work upon the fences and
outhouses. Its proposed by some to es-
tablish an Agricultural College on one
portion of tie Hermitage, to instruct the
children and grandchildren of those who
fought under him at New Orleans, and all
who may be entitled to the privileges Of
the institution.

To Our Business Men.

The following article we copy from the
Waukegan Qliinois) Citizen, and though
intended for the Merchants and Business
Men of that town, it will apply with great
er force to that class Of the population of
Manitowoc. Tie Pilot now circulates
through neorly every Post Office in Mani
towoc, Sheboygan, Calument, Brown, and
kewaunee Counties, and its columns otter
rare inducements to our merchants and
tradesmen to advertise their business to
the public-thus making the advantages
Of Manitowoc known, and inviting trade
from the people of localities who now hard
" ever visn our town. The following is
the article from the Citizen, and we ask
for it careful perusal: .... ...
Wehave frequently asked our Merchants
and business men to advertise in the Clt1-
zen, and in most cases they answer that
they are so we'll known and established
that there is no necessity of their advertis-
ing. This may seem plausible to those
making the objection; but 1t as not true.
No man is so well established as to be
above-or beyond the need Of making
known his business. To us it is sign of
weakness to see a man withdraw his adj
vertisements from the press-a knowledge
of his own incapacity to meet the wants Of
the pubEc-a desire to fail with intent to
victimise his creditors if he has the capaci-
ty. From the very commencement of our
town, the business men have been short
sighted. BY their neglect Of the roads
they have decimated the trade of the place;
and BY their persistent silence-by their
refusal to advertise, they contriye still fur
Their to drive trade from the place. If Ell
Their the presses in town should pursue as
unwise a course as do our merchants-if
they should fail to commend the facilities
Of the place, and aver thai it is the only
place in all creation fit for man to live
IN, how long would it be before our mer-
chants would be obliged to make assign
ments, and the few inhabitants we have
left be obliged to seek other places to
obtain livelihood ! Let those interested
ask the question Of themselves.

A REvoLTINc OUrRAGE.-The Chicago
papers contain an account of a shameful
outrage committed on the person IF a
young woman, lately bereft by death of
her husband, mother and relatives, and left
with helpless babe and an almost imbe-
Gle brother. She arrived in Chicago last
Saturday on her way to New York when
two young men of that city succeeded in
entrappin@ her in an obscure hotel and
then committing a revolving outrage upon
her. The young men, whose names are
CHARLES CADY and SAMUEL ARNOLD, have
both been held in the sum of s., 900, each
to answer at the next term of the Record
er's Court.

OFFICE.-Men seek office either for its
emoluments or the distinction it confers.
When worthily bestowed, and its duties
are faithfully discharged, it confers honor
upon the recipient. In this country, men
are born to the highest title-that of free
men-to the right of thinking, believing,
and acting for themselves. They can
achieve greatness, if they will. They have
right to seek, and obtain, and hold office,
if they can; and in this right all stand up
ON an equal footing. -. .al. +.
Many, and often the most worthy, seek
to obtain Office, and do not succeed but
their failure is no disgrace, for all cannot,
though they may. seek to be, governors of
the people. We wish that more Of Our
best men were office-seekers or office tax
ers, for many of our offices would be more
worthily filled than they are, or have been.
Our people are divided into two great pol
itical parties, and men from either one or
the other party must be selected and elect
ed to fill the various offices in the govern
ment, and these parties are often forced to
support mere partizan men, for whom they
have but little respect, for he sake of the
party. '."A r. .9z~s
If each party would bring out its best
men, (and they are often those who shrink
from entering the feld) we should hear less
complaint, and have less reason to com
plain Of high taxes, or of extravaganza and
corruption in the administration of the gov
eminent affairs, than We now do. When
men without reproach will enter the field
for office, and are not permitted to be thrust
aside, We may hail the good time has
come" .......... ....

" Among all the Panaceas advertised for
the cure Of human ailments, there is none
in which we have more confidence than
Wistar's Basam of Wild Cherry We
regard it as one of Natures preparations,
simple, safe, pleasant 20 take, and almost
certain to cure all bilious and pulmonary
affections. We have witnessed its power
full effects in cases that were regarded as
hopelessly desperate, and we can conscien-
tiously recommend it as one of the medi.
