Tie Editors and Pat!;slers' C3nyer-
ton Of Wisconsin, held is Fifth Aalual
Meeting in this city on "Wednesday a:.d
Thursday last. The number present was
not over forty, Various causes COZ
tributed to the meagre attendance, amongst
which we may mention growing eonyic-
ton that the objects at first sought to be
accomplished by this organization are found
to be almost beyond the reach of such
means, or perhaps any practicable means.
The adoption of uniform prices for Job
Work and Advertising, is an ethiopian
work, which never has been and never
will be accomplished in any State in the
Union Something ofimportance has been
done in the way of securing just rates for
Legal Advertising; which is nearly or
quite all deserving of mention in pecuni-
airy view.
Over and above material results sought,
or obtained, the social influence, in secu-
ring the prevalence of becoming fraternal
amenities by the craft, and promoting
healshful jeud esprit, has been of marked
and most satisfactory character as in all
other relations in life acquaintance and
intercourse greatly tend to lessen appar-
ent differences growing out of party lines,
remote Or antagonistic localities, and other
similar causes, by diyerting attention from
controversy to points of agreement, and
interposing a common humanity,-which
is a bond of eternal fellowship, and pow
err superior to all fancisd or real antago-
nisms. At the same time it affords an oc-
casion for needed relaxation, to invigorate
the mind and body, and also greatly pro-
notes acquaintance of the members Of the
Press with the various parts of our State;
an object of no small Importance,
The Annual Address and the Poem, the

House, On Wednesday evening, To say
that these performances equalled the cor
responding parts in former meetings. would
be saying too little.

It is a mistaken notion that natives Of a

peculiar to it, or better able to endure its
searching suns than those from more North

only after the Englishman has resided in

One Of our special correspondents at
Fortress Monroe, after enumerating the
details Of the battle at Big Bethel, thus
instances cases of the courage displayed
by our troops near the close of the bat
tie:
On the retreat Capt. Wilson, of Gel.
Cars regiment. observing that six poun-
der had been left on the field, about fifty
rods from the battery, said to his men,
Boys, there is a cannon We must not
leave it behind we must take it with US. "
The company to a man shouted, 1--WE will
take it. And he Immediately marched his
company up the road to the piece Scarce
ly had they reached it before the enemy
opened scorching FIRE, which killed pri-
vate Moony, and wounded priTates Laner-
gan and John Larkin. The drag ropes
were not attached to the gun, and but a
moment was employed in tieing them on,
as the storm Of grape and rife bullets
hailed thick about them. Every moment
they expected to be their last, as full ten
guns were constantly playing upon them.
Finally, in what seemed to be an age,
the ropes were tied on, and with cheer
they rushed the cannon into the woods ;
and then Captain Wilson, with five men,
went back to the open space, seized the
caisson, and then quickly took up the body
Of poor Lieut.. Greble and got into the
woods with both before the enemy could
recover from their surprise and astonish-
ment at the daring audacity of our men
The cannon was discovered to be spiked
and partially loaded which was done on re-
firing.
