Our Agent.

Mr. GEORGE CATER is our travelling
agent to settle with all indebted for the
Herald or otherwise. He is now 10 the
neighborhood Of Beetown, and will can
yass all parts of the county. Considering
the large total of outstanding dues, all in
small suns--the Same scattered over al
most every plane, hill and valley of the
county-in the hands Of near two thousand
persons, male and female, fixed and tran
sient-operators on land and in mines be-
low ground, we find it impossible to get
our dues without sending round an agent
to call on delinquents. Indeed, it is an ac-
commodation alike to debtor and creditor
for us TO do so. Our nearly fifteen hum
dred subscribers are almost equally dis
tributed in almost all parts of the county,
and are mainly permanent residents as well
as fixed patrons of the Herald Few of
them ever stop the paper or neglect 10 pay
when an opportunity offers. The names of
nearly half our present patrons have been
on our list most of the time for the ten
years of our connection with the paper
Most Of the remaining half may be CON
sidered permanent. We are pleased to
know that few of our patrons ever die or
slide from better TO worse, while most of
them are rising from poverty to wealth
and respect. We hope Mr. CARTER will
be received in friendly way and generously
advised in every way pertaining to his mis-
sion. lie will be found trusty and a thor
ouch business man.

Praying IN the Legislature.

A resolution was offered in the Assem-
bly, on Tuesday last, by one Of our mem
bers, Mr. Jared Warner:
s'necaring that prayers for pay are an abominaion
TO the Deity, that chaplans be employed by this
Legislature. but that each member employ such chap
lain as be wishes, paying him on his private account"
This curious resolution, affirming, first,
that paid prayers are an abomination to
tho Deity; second, authorizing each mem
Der to employ such chaplain as he wishes,
is sort of Irish bull, iaHsmuch as in either
case the Deity is to be insulted with paid
prayers. We are not sure however but
the intent Of the res luton was right, mas
much as hired prayers are surely an abom:-
nation-just as much so as hired mourn
ing for deceased friends, hired friendship,
hired virtue or hired praises. Hneling SER
vice cannot be God-slryice, but is man-ser-
vice. Let the Legislature invite worthy
ministers to open sessions by turns each
morning with prayer, without any hiring
or hope Of reward. Then and only then
can heart petitions to the throne Of God Be
expected. If at the end of session, it APP
pears that members have been better, made
better laws-that the spirit Of God has
moved the hearts Of members to dc right
then may suitable appropriations be made
to such chaplains fol their good works and
to God for bis works. Otherwise, not a
dime should they have-the chaplains we
mean. Let Mr. Warner SO amend his res
alution that the pay shall come aftef the
service is rendered, provided the service
proves worth paying for; and we would al
low him TO BE- the judge especially IN his
own case.

and against all government, there IL but one
answer to be made: "1He government
must be sustained, the lars shall be en-
forced"
Secession is revolution; revelation is
war; war against tho government of the
United States is treason.
II is time, now, to know whether we
have any government, and, if so, whether
it has any strength. Is our written Con-
stitution more than 4 sheet Of parchment
The Nation must be lost or preserved by
its own strength. It's strength is in the
patriotism Of the people. 1t is time nov
that politicians become Patriots, that lnen
show their love of country by every sacri-
flee but that Of principle, and by unwaver-
mo devotion to its interests and integrity.
The hopes Of Civilization and Christi
anity are suspended now upon the answer
to this question OF dissolution. The ca
pacity for, as well as the right Of self gov
eminent Is to pass its ordeal, and specula-
ton to become certainty. Other systems
have been tried and have failed, and all
along, the skeletons Of nations have been
stre@n, as warnings and landmarks upon
the great highway Of historic government.
Wisconsin is true, and her people steadfast.
She will not destroy the Union, nor consent
t.lat il shall be done. Devised by great,
and wise, and good men, in days Of sore
trial, it must stand. Like some bold
mountain, at whose base the great seas
break their angry floods, and around whose
summit the thunders OF a thousand huIli-
canes have ratified, strong, unmoved, i'm
moyable-so may our Union be, while
treason surges at its base, and passions rage
around it, unmoyed, immoyeablc, here
| let il stand forever.

Concerning Late News.

Since the day that lightning was reclaim
ed from its primitive wildness, domsi
Gated and chartered by law for seryiceh
the department Of news, never were he
graphs so greatly demanded as at this time
when treason and rebellion are at work u
our country. But the lightning, having
dressed in human harness and become SUB
iect 70 hmnaa laws, has also adopted al
the failures Of humanity. Itnot onlyha
but it refuses 70 speak just at this tin'
when its way Of speaking truth and iae
hood is most wanted. It taxes its voId
SO dearly that nobody is able to buy them
The monopoly Is insuferable, yet there >
no help. We are led to these remarks y
learning that the Chicago, Galena and D.
buque telegraph. lines have raised ina
prices of telegraphing SO. high that luz
press and people Of Galena ard DuOnla
are unable to take dispatches tQr ihs
daily papers. Consequently, the peSf
boring people and country press who lHs
heretofore depended on the Galena aR
Dubuque Dailies for late news, are CON.
PEELED to wait for the arrival Of MiwauSs
and Chicago papers. For our part, yega
along very well with the Milwaukee ni
Chicago Dailies. Fortunately, the NJ
waukee Wisconsin being an evening pP
and sent through the same evening nN
publication, it reaches us the followingdF
This gives us news from Washington OV'
day behind time-that Is, on mail dea
Tuesdays and Fridays. The Chicago NV
une arrives two days after publication
tri-weekly mails. We think the ieleglapD
viii soon back down from their rate Of Pr
hibition, when the Galena Daily Ana
user will be able to take dispatches q Y
fore. AS matters now stand, and sno"4
they remain 50 permanently, the MiIVal''''
Madison and other papers on the roaS
the M. & M. Railroad will be substitute
for news in place Of Gelena and D'0T
papers in all places north and west o
latter cities.

change &c Publie..tion Do.

Change Of Publication Day.
To accommodate the mails and subscli-
bers at various Post-ofices in the county,
we change our publication day from Satur-
day to Thursday. The change will be
permanent, or until the mails are SO altered
as to require different publication day

better accommodate subscribers in the west
and north parts Of the county, and SO far
as we can see, In all other parts of the coun-
ty. We shall be able to supply later news
than before. Under the new arrangements,
manuscripts, advertisements, notices, DC,
designed for publication, should be handed
in previous to Wednesday at noon. Com
munications from Madison for the Herald
should he mailed on Monday in time for
the western evening mails. Our papers
will be mailed on Thursday morning for
the north, west and east, and following day
south. Almost every Post-ofic, in the
county viii be supplied by or before Sat
urday, notwithstanding the disconnection Of
nearly every mail in the county.
