Wisconsin,.

There is certainly one embarrassed
State blessed with sensible Chief Magis-
trate. Gov. Randall Of Wisconsinntells
the People Of that State, in his late Mes
sage. that they are too deeply in debt
that interest on loans and mortgages is
eating them up-that facilities for further
borrowing abroad would prove but shares
and pitfaIls-pleasant at the outset, but
sure'to damage them in the end. He
says they must pay whatever they honest +.
IL owe, if they can-pay it when due, it
possible; but if not possible then, as soon
thereafter as may be-but not go IN debt
another dollar. On the contrary, they
work hard and live frngallT, 50 as to be
able to pay, and do without many things
that it would be convenient to have, ratS-
er than run into debt for them. This is
the sober, vital truth, and the West will
outgrow its difficulties only 50 fast and $ o
far rs it is heeded.-M Y. Tribune.

The County Seat.

We hear that our Prescott friends are
considerably excited about the removal
ofthe County Seat...We have previously
expressed our opinion on this subject but
we see no necessity for agitating it at
present. We believe, as we have before
said, that the removal of the County seat
is sure thing-a result which time will
bring about, either sooner or later.
Now the country is hardly strong E.
nough to desire to push this matter to a
decision at present. If Prescott wishes
to have it decided now, and brings the
matter before the people, she may be beat
en-, and may not. 1t is no object for her
to be beaten, cert inly. and if not beaten
she will be no better off than at present,
for there will hardly be County Board
of Supervisors who will vote tax to
build County buildings there, and when
the country becomes strong enough, she
will again, call for a removal, and obtain
II. Taking this view of the case, which
we believe to be the true one, we hardly
think any definite action will be taken on
the subject at present.

Judson J. Hutchinson, one of the bro
Tiers of the Hutchinson Family" COM
mitted suicide at Lynn, Mass, January
1lth. The Boston Atlas gives the fol
lowing particulars with regard to his
death: ...-...+....
1t appears that his body was found
suspended by the neck, in an unfinished
house owned by his brother at High
Rock, in Lynn. When discovered, life
was entirely extinct. He had been as
sisting his brother John and wife in ut
tending to the fires kindled in the unfin-
ished house to prevent the plaster freezing.
and was left in the basement arranging
the furnace fire, when they returned to
the High Rock eottage, a few feet distant.
Finding tea ready on entering the house,
they rang the bell for Judson, but lie did
not come, and his brother on searching
for him found him hanging by the neck.
He has at times given indications of an
unsouud state of mind. 1t is related that
he was once taken to an insane hospital
for treatment by his brother Jesse, who
died in California. and happening to gain
access to the officers of the institution a
trifle in advance, he persuaded them that
Jesse was the insane one, and nearly sue
ceeded in having him locked up. He re-
turned from concert tour about week
since, and concert was given by them
in Lynn last Saturday evening. In man.
ner and dress he was quite eccentric.
This conceit was partly natural, but much
more affected. HIS expansive shirt collar
and sizeleSs felt hat will not soon be for
COTTON. The deceased was about forty
vesrs of age, and had teen much absorb
ed in spiritualism for some time past. and
has sometimes conversed lately on the
best means of committing suicide.

PEN AND SCISSORS.

An anxious mother in Maine thus
writes to her son in California;
"My dear someone home. A roll
ing stone gathers no moss. Your affec-
tionate mother.
To which Young America, with equal
laconism, replies:
"My dear mother-come here. A
setting hen never gets fat. Your affec-
tomato son.
inlay man marry his wifo's sis
ter 2" is question which has given rise to
considerable discussion. We suppose it
could be satisfactorily answered by the
sister in question when the man popped
the question.
"A memorial from the Legislature of
Indiana, repudiating the bogus Senators,
Bright and Fitch, from that State, has
been presented to Congress, and the new
Senators are now ut Washington to claim
their seats.
An old Dutch tavern keeper, who
had his third wife, thus expresses his
views of matrimony: "Vell you see, do
first time [ married for love-dat was
goot: den marries for beauty-dat was
goot too, about AS goot as the first; dis
TINA l marries for money-and dis is bet
ter as both.
The Supreme Court of Minnesota
has decided that decd made by pre-
emptor, at any time before the entry and
receipt of his duplicate certificate from
the District Land Office, is valid deed
and conveys the foo simple to the pur-
chaser.
-Parson Brownlow, ofthe Knoxville
Wing, has learned that there is dressed
f1ea's skin in the Baltimore Museam, con-
tanning the souls Of seven delinquent sub
scribers to newspaper; the consciences
ofseven other mel who refuse to pay their
advertising bills, the "principlcs" of seven
leading Democratic politicians; seven
bachelors hearts, and all the remaining
sweetness Of seventy old maids.
Fifty editors in Maine, recently
went on an excursion; they made COM

for dinner. In consequence of that reck-
less extravaganza, forty-nine of them have
since taken the benefit of the bankrupt

But few subjects of general interest
Aavc as yet come before the Legislature.
Several petitions have been presented as
King the Legislature to pass an act pro-
Iibiting the sale of intoxicating liquors.
There is little prospect of anything being
effected by them. Fl. S. Orion has intro
duecd bill repeating the present law
with regard to interest, and reducing the
rate of interest in oil cases, to seven per
cent.
Mr.. + w. Horn, a member of tho As
seinbly from Ozaukee County, has given
notice of his intention to Introduce bill
submitting to the People the question Of
calling q Convention to revise the Con-
stitution and providing for the holding OF
such Convention, should the People au-
thorize it. The bill proposes that the
People she'll vote on Town Meeting Day
for, or against Constitutional Conven-
ton. If the affirmative prevail, then on
= the first Monday in May, two delegates
are to be chosen from each Senatorial
District in the State (making body Of
sixty members) who are to meet in con-
ycntion at Milwaukee, in the first week in
June.
The session of the legislature has been
limited to the 2lst of FEBRUARY. There
is prospect of a busy and economical
session. With regard to the character Of
the present legislature, Rufus King ofthc
Sentinel says:
Il have heard a number of old mem
Rers say-and my opinion comedies with
theirs-that it is the best body that has
assembled in Madison in many years.
There is an unusual proportion of talent
and legislative experience in both Houses
and general disposition to attend to bus
mess and esehew politics, or "buncombe. y
The minority are in no wise factious, and
the majority will show fair play"

The POst-Master Generals
Propositions.

The Postmaster General proposes that
letter postage shall be raised from three
to five cents. This is simply proposal
to tax Letter Writers for the support Of
Government. Every man who writes a
letter must pay not only the three cents
which it costs to carry it, but two cents
more towards the cost of something else.
The Ohio farmer who writes to Ii s friends
in New England, the Alb ny mercLa 1t
who writes to bis Schenectady customer
the school-boy at Troy, who writes to
his mother in New York, must be taxed
two cents per letter to pay for Ocean
Steamers, Utah Wagons, and the disse
mination of Public documents! They
must pay for what they don't get, be-
cause other people d,n'c pay for wLat
they do, They must pay debs they
don't owe, merely to make two columns
balance in the Post Master General
BRowN's ledger!
The Post Master General says if they
do not there will be deficiency. Very
well. Let there be deficiency. What
of it? Why it will have to be paid out
of the Public Treasury that is, paid by
the public at large. Well, and who else
ought to pay it! Who but the public at
large ordered Ocean Steamers, Desert
Roads and Public Documents! Whom
else do they benefit! Were they created
for the benefit of inland letters writers p
Certainly not. Then why should inland
letter writers alone be taxed to pay for
them?
The Post Master General labers under
a confusion of ideas, when ne talks about
manking the Department selfsustaining.
Is it self-<usaining to make A sustain BIS
expenses? If the Department is to be
made selfsustaining, people who use
Ocean Steamers should pay for them,peo-
pie who nse Desert Roads should pay for
them, and people who get Public Docu-
ments should pay for them. But this is
not asked. 1t is conceded that these are
necessary and proper adjunets to the pow
er of the General Government. Ifso, the
people at large, for whose benefit the
General Government is instituted, ought
to pay their expense, and not saddle it on
a single class. thereby affixing a penalty
to that free and constant inter-communi-
cation which it is the interest of the Gov
eminent to promote rather than to discour-
age.-Albany Journal. .t.

The Assumption Scheme.

The Wisconsin advocates the policy of
submitting the Assumption question to
the people. 1t says submitting
the question, they get rid, as party, of
either opposition or friendliness to the
movement, and they can go into the can
vass of 1S59-6O, on the clean and inn
pregnablo issues of the national Republi-
can party of the Union. There is no
sounder or more sagacious policy to get
rid of what may become an embarrassing
question, than by sending it at once to
the People-the final court Of appeals"

Educational.

In notice of the State University the
Sentinel says:
''rhe friends of education in Wiscon-
sin will rejoice to learn that Hon. Henry
Barnard, of Hartford Conn.,. has finally
signified his acceptance of the Office of
Chancellor Of the University of Wiscon-
