WASHINGTON Hunt.

This gentleman, than whom there is not
a man in the country who has done more
to pander to the whims and caprices of the
South, recently made speech at Des
Moines, Iowa. On the state of our affairs
in which he took the same ground occu-
pied by Mr. Everett and other leaders of
the late constitutional Union party, say
ing He had incurred the serious displeas-
ure of bis best friends by his conscientious
advocacy of the doctrines Of Cancellation
and compromise. But all these matters
are now passed Old issues are wholly OBJ
liberated and we are now called as loyal
subjects of free constitution, to crush
out formidable rebellion against estab-
lished authority"

The Future Of Parties,

The question is being extensively dis
cussed as to whether party lines shall be
obliterated this Fall and but one ticket for
State officers, placed in nomination, or not.
Considerable diversity Of opinion exists as
to the best course to be pursued. The
Milwaukee Ners, Appleton Crescent, and
other papers OF like political faith are op-
posed to burying the political Ratchet. and
in favor of gping right along as usual with
regular party nominations on e ther side.
We do net see why those gentry should be
urged 20 take any other course. If they
prefer to support ticket comprising on
ly Democrats, let them be accommodated
by all means. They certainly are not con
ferring any favor upon Republicans by
favoring a Union ticket Our side
has nothing to gain by such an operation,
and Dem ocrats might as well understad it
first as last. They ought to know that as
parties are constituted now, the Democrat
ic organization has everything to gain and
nothing to lose by the arrangement to
which we have alluded. But if they think
otherwise, and purpose to stand back wait
ing to be coa1ed into it by Republicans,
we for one are in favor of giving them the
cold shoulder and letting them go into the
contest on their own hook with straight
Democratic ticket. and see how they will
COME out.

Tho odor,us chaplet Of GUNNER binds the
passing year. The suns daily course is
the long aud blazing track Of solstitial
splendor the morning awakens at its car
liest beaning time the evening signs it
slfto sleep at It's latest folding hour. The
warmth and wealth Of tropical loFeliness
the verdure and the bloom. the sweet airs
and ''skyey influences" of the A9wory June
are around US. Buds and blossoms, birds
and hess, the fragrance that savors the
gale, the purple hues Of the dawn, the
brightness that clothes the noon, the rosy
and amber food in which the dying day Is
drowned, the sky 50 full Of glory, the
earth so full of beauty, are the season, s
crown and cognzance. But the breeze Is
laden with other sounds than those Of
summer From our country's battle fields
come the echoes Of deadly fight. On this
air of GUNNER is borne the trumpet blast,
tho clang Of arms. the lannon's opening
roar. For our flag we must fight, and by
that sign we will conquer. But let this
moral, consigned by such seals Of blood,
and sanctifed by 50 much sorrow, be and
abide with us; that respect for the con-
ssitution and obedience to the laws is the
only safeguard for our protection. This
rebellion is but disrespect to the conshtu-
ton and dis, bediencs to the laws. And
svery infractlon of law, every contempt Oi
authority is treason, not avowed like theirs,
but like theirs. wicked and deadly. And
when war is ended, when long days Of hal
syon peace and established order follow
these bloody calamities, when the last tral-
tor shall have swung from galloEs, OF
rotted in dungeon, or died IN exile, let
Us in our profession and by our teachings
remember, that laws must be obeyed that
the constitution must be observed and al
it's cempacts be respected and loved as we
respect and love the inviolate idol that
commands all the alteration of our hearts,
and in that only ia the warrant and seeu
risy of the institutions that blood ha:
.hrics baptized.

elected a member of the Association. On
motion of D. w. Ballou, Jr, l.. B Noyes

Mr.. E. E Carr moved that the thanks of
the Association be rendered to the Com
mon Council of the city of WATERFOWL, for
the use of their rooms during the present
Convention.
Mr.. Bohan moved that the thanks Of the
Convention be given to G. w. Fitch, for
the efficient and gentlemanly manner in
which he has discharged tie duties of

Mr.. B,lou offered the following resou-
ton, which passed unanimously.
! RESOLVED, That the thanks of this Associa-
ton are cordially rendered to Prof J W Hoyt
in which he has presided over its deliberations
during the present session.
At this stage of the proceedings, Prof
Hoyt arose and eloquently expressed his
grateful sense of the honors lie had re-
ceived at the hands of the Association, and
stated the lively interest he had always
felt in its permanent prosperity. He ap-
precisted the uniform kindness shown to-
wards him during bis term of office ; and
after making few practical sugges-
tons as to the spirit that ought to charae-
terze the intercourse Of brethren laboring
in the same wide field Of usefulness, con
cluded with introducing to the Conven-
ton his successor, D. w. Ballou, Jr, the
President elect
Mr. BalIou said he was under deep obi
cations to the members of the Association
for having first favored the city of his resi-
} dence by selecting it as the place Of one
of their annual sessions, aud then fol
choosing him President by vote unsol
cited and unanimous. The best return
: he could make for these evidences of re
gard would be full and faithful discharge
of she duties another year would deyolvt
on him. and this he would do to the bes
of his ability. And he would think him
self fortunate indeed, if. at the close of th,
next meeting of the Association, he should
be able to retire from the honorable posi-
ton assigned him, with only small
share of those golden opinions which
his accomplished and respected predeces
sor hal SO justly won and gracefully
borne away.
The Association then adjourned TO NEE
at the City of Racine, on the ThirC
Wednesday of June, 1862.

More Trouble with the Banks.

~~NA---~-
On Saturday last, ten Wisconsin Banks
which were included in the guaranteed list
as good unit! the lst Of December next,
were thrown cut in Milwaukee, and their
bills are no longer current. The follow
ing are the Banks alluded to:
Bank of Columbus,
Bank Of Green Bay,
Bank Of ortage,
City Bank of Kenosha,
Dodge County Bank,
E. r. Hinckley & Co.'S Bank,
La Crosse County Bank,
Northern Bank,
Waupun Bank,
Wisconsin Pinery Bank.
Of course, no little excitement was oc-
casioned on the part of those in whose
hands much Of this deprecated currency
was at the time. People who had been
led to repose confidence in it by the action
of the Bankers at their meeting in April,
when they guaranteed all that had not then
discredited, and pledged themselves to
stand by each other until the 1st of De
cember, were not little surprised, as well
they might be. that the compact should so
soon be broken. We do not pretend to
understand whose fault it is that the agree
ment alluded to has been violated, though
it is but fair to state that the Milwaukee
Banks charge it upon some of the coun-
try Banks, while they in turn lay it all to
Milwaukee. 1t is enough for the present
to know that the 'slate is broken" and
that the first nan who signed the pledge
spoken of, was one of the first to break it.
This done, and the Milwaukee Banks all
following in discrediting the ten Banks
spoken Ct, the country Banks could not be
expected to adhere any longer to the orig
inal understanding If violated by one, it
was natural enough that others should
take the same course, and the responsible
ity should rest upon those who first brske
their faith with the public. What the
programme will be now, it is difficult to
tell Every thing is at loose ends, and no
one seems to have any very definite idea
as to what ought to be done.
Of one thing though, there can be lit
tie doubt, and that is that there is nc sense
in getting up panic. Let US take the
thing coolly Do not mob the Banks, as
they did in Milwaukee, for that does not
help the case at all. 1t makes the money
no better, does not help the loss sustained
by the people. and, indeed, only adds to
the present difficulty. Be philosophical in
this as you would in any other affair, and
trust to the future to bring good out of the
evils now existing. That is the best ad.
vice we have to give

The State Loan Taken---No Extra SEES
sion of the Legislature to be Called.
We learn from the Milwaukee Sentine
that the State Officers have had s
conference with some Of the leading cap
italists of that city and negotiated a loan
of 100000 for the State, so that there
will be no necessity for convening the Leg
islature to amend the Law passed at the
extra session, to obvlate the objections
raised to it in Wall street. The ,Sentinei
says I'VE learn that the State has sue
ceeded in raising 100000, which is
thought to be all that will be wanted,
bonds being hypotbecated at the rate Of
Toe on the dollar for the amount. The
State is authorized, if she does not desire
to take up the bonds at the figure at which
they are hypothecated, to consider it a
sale. Of eourse she will prefer to take
them up, This mode of effeeting the loan,
corresponds with the suggestions We made
a day CT two since of what might be done
under the law; and while it is legal, we
doubt not, it is as well for the State as she
could have done in any circumstance. It
is only necessary to take up her bonds, to
get her loan at par, which no doubt she
will do"
The Wisconsin, of Wednesday, has the
following upon the same subject. 1t says
1.-The Bankers of this city were in con-
ference with the Governor last evening, and
they finally agreed to take the State loan
Of $500, 600 at par. We have understood
that the arrangement is combined with the
Immediate retirement of the Southern State
Bonds, and the substitution therefor of the
State bonds Of Wisconsin. We really hope
that we have reached the end of our cur
fcncy troubles
There is no doubt that some arrange
ment has been made by which the loan is
to be taken, though from the above it is
not so clear what the details of it exactly
are. We hope, with tie Wisconsin, that it
will have good effect upon the currency
and make it better
