ELECTI0N NEXT TUEsDAY!
sTOCK AIARhETs AND BANKS AGAINST
Linz DIN.

One grand, sublime, nischieyous, ridicu-
lous combination between the wall-street
stock gamblers and Banks, all in the south
ern union saving interest, was formed late
" and last week set in motion. by the ar
rangement, the stock markets were to open
and close IN a depressed state; the Banks
were to stop diseounting and refuse all
northern paper; northern credits were to
be scaadalized-all upon the plea that the
election Of Lincoln was to seal the fate Of
the union, inaugurate civil war and disun-
ion, smash the banks, discredit the stocks,
inaugurate panic and heget treason
Secretary Cobb had arranged to offer ten
millions Of government debts for sale and
thereby exhaust the market Of money
The thing worked well for a full day. The
following day, rally was made. to save
the union on the other side. Stocks were
bid up above former rates, Southern cx-
change and pepper went up, government
stock arose above par, cotton arose, conf
denee in the union arose to the highest fig
ure ever known. The result was most dis
astrous for the cottonocracy and union say
ers. They were beat at their own game,
and the result vas, that another avalanche
slid off the mountain and fell into tie lap
Of Lincoln. Most Of all, Stephens speech
came out. announcing his and the entire
southern desertion from Douglas, making
the Presidential race perfectly SECTIONAL
Even wall-stleet trembled Mt this event and
threatened to wheel into line for Lincoln
The New York Herald announced the
game as lost to The South and the worst
arranged cheat ever attempted to save tbs
anion. The Herald SAYS al is lost, anJ
that old Abe viii slide in and save the IN
ion with his Wide Awakes.

BOsCOBEL TRADE-BRIDGE-R
PUnLIC SCHOOLS.

Boscobel, a village Of scarce five years
existence in the north part ofthis county,
is remarked at Milwaukee as doing the lar
gest grain trade of any station on the rail-
road west Of Madison, except McGregor, the
latter place having the trade Of a large share
Of Iowa State, the former being limited to
scarcely third Of Grant County. Were
there a bridge over the Wisconsin river at
Boscotel, the trade Of that place would be
augmented at least third thereby; rather,
we might say, the population on the other
side would speedily double and those hay
ing a surplus of trade would lie furnished
a market. That fine, large country north
Of the river from Boscobel, almost equal in
quality and extent to the territorial support
Of Boscobcl on this side Of the river, is with
ont market and is SO situated that no
market can ever be supplied on the north
side of the river A bridge would attract
the great surplus Of that side to Boscobel-
The railroad company should aid the eiti-
zens Of Boscobel Immediately in bridging
the Wisconsin.
To this time the total amount Of wheat
Of the new crop forwarded from Boscobe
TO Milwaukee IS $4,000 bushels. Ofothel
! trade than wheat the amount is unimpor
tant, the market for cattle, pork and Other
articles being not yet fully opened. We
are thinking the beef and pork trade il
these parts viii be heavy this year.
Boscobel is preparing a fine public school
building, the cost being near $1,000
School viii soon be opened therein; and il
the school officers have the sagacity to
countthe importance and attractions Of good
schools, and the influence thereofin draw
ing families to their town they will employ
two or three Of the best teachers to be found
in the country. At the start is the time to
beget fame Let Il schools Of Bossobel
get a bad name now and it will be difficult
afterwards to correct bad impressions. The
public spirit Of BoscoJel has hitherto not
been equal to what the fine prospects Of the
place have warranted. The roads leading
therefrom and the bridges are in tolerable
condition, though but little attention has
been given to making side walks.
The Congregationalists are erecting a
a small house Of worship at Boscobel, being
the first improvement Of the kind Mr..
James Barnett Of Lancaster has purchased
the Barnett House and Livery Stable and
will keep them properly. Parker is finish
ing fine grain warehouse at the depot.
The Eapress printing Office, being run By
HUBBARD u DEMPSEY, is having a prom
ising patronage and may yield enough rev
enue for the present--the future promising
better. The population Of 9oscobel is

THR Law ABOUT PENALTIES, FORFEIT
UREs AND FINEs-sssPORTANT TO JUS.
TiCEs AND TOWN SUPERVISORS.

We are requested by Mr. Jones, the
County Treasurer, to call the attention Of
Justices Of the Peace and Chairman Of Town
Boards to the laws relating to the collection
Of penalties, forfeiturcs and fines, and the
accounting Of the same.
Seeiol lst, Chapter III, Of the Gener-
al laws of 1859, reads as follows:
Every Chairman Of the town board Of
supervisors shall demand Of, and receive
from each justice Of the peace Of his town,
all fines and forfeitures received by such JUS
tee upon convictions and sentences before
him acciuing to the State.
Section Sd Of same chapter makes ii the
duty Of supervisors, in case justices refuse
Or neglect to comply with he demand, to
Immediately brng suit against such justice
and biz sureties, before any other justice ID
his county.
Section 4th, IS as follows:
On the Tuesday next succeeding the gen
eral election Of each year, every such chair
man and every city treasurer, @llail pay oy-
er to the treasurer Of his county, all sums
Of money collected by HIM pursuant to this
act, taking a receipt therefor, and at the
same time shall submit q statement, yeTi-
fed by his affidavit, and fled with tie clerk
Of the board Of supervisors Of his county,
containing the names Of the several justices
Of his town, aud the amount of fines and
forfeitures received from each, and time Of
collection, the name of the defendant IN each
case, the cause of prosecution and the date
Of process and Judgment.
Also section 8 Of the same law Is of par
ticular interest to Chairmen Of boards. II
reads:
In case of the neglect or refusal, on the
part Of any chairman of the town board Of
supervisors, or city treasurer, TO perform
any Of the duties required Of him by the
provisions Of this act, he shall, on congic-
ton be punished by imprisonment in the
county jail not less than three months, nol
more than six months, or by fine ofnot less
than fifty dollars, nor more than three hun
/ dred dollars, or by both IN the discretion o.
the court; and the county treasurer shall
/ prosecute such chairman Of town board 81
supervisors, or city treasurer Of his county
forthwith, in any case Of such refusal d
neglect.
This act repeats sections is to 25, inclu
sive, Of chapter l55 ofthe Revised statutes
except part of section 90. 1t has in many
instances been disregarded, probably from
having escaped the notice of supervisors
and justices. We are told that justices arr
in the habit Of pocketing these fines an6
nothing more i said of them. Last yea
only five Or six Of The towns made report
under the law; the whole sum reported be
ing Sll5.5o. The safest way hereaft
will be the fulfllment Of the law. 1t vii
