Illegal Voting.

Many OF our readers have undoubtedly
witnessed the adroitness of the Pheasant
when disturbed with her young After con
cealing her brood, she hobbies off as If in
a crippled condition in an opposite direc-
ton, 10 attract the intruder from her Sc
creted little ones. We ire reminded of the
sagacity of this bird III the adroitness OF
the Editor Of The Advocate in attempting
to divert suspicion justly resting upon hun
and his friends Of a design to poll LARGE
Illegal vote on the u of April upon the
County Seat Question In reply to our
figures showing that heretofore when vo-
ting Cor the Removal Of the County Seat,
D0dEeyillc with much smaller number
Of inhabitants than Mineral Point, polled
a much larger vote, he flies off to the vote
On the Rail Road Bonds, in which he thinks
he has got a sure thing. If the Editor of
the Advocate VIII refer back to that vote
and compare it with the population Of the
two places he viii find that the percentage
of the votes of the two places were about
equal Mineral Point may have polled il
legal votes on that occasion, but if she did
50 she did no more than was done in
Dodeeville, and our neighbor in making
the charge upon US, is departing from the
old adage that the pot cannot call the
kettle black.
The CLAIMS OF Mineral Point to a
much greater population than Dodge
vile" are based upon the census report
as published in the columns of the Advo-
cate, taken from the returns in the Office
Of the Secretary of State at Madison, from
which it appears that the City Of Mineral
Point falls bat 29l below the village and
town Of Dodgeville, while the population
Of the Town and City of Mineral Point ex-
cccds that Of the Town and Village of
Dodgeville by l,l47. If the ratio of votes
in Dodgeyille l., as is claimed by some Of
the citizens Of that place, one to A. Of her
She can poll 100 votes The
same ratio would give Mineral Point l0ll
votes. Now we do not believe that either
place can poll that number of Legal votes,
but we believe Mineral Point can come
just As near to it as Dodgeville can The
Town and village of bod geyiIle have a pop
ulation Of 34G4 The Town and CITY Of

The telegraph reports during the past week
have been very contradictory IN relation to
intentions Of the Administration III regard to
Fort sumter. Ii was at first reported that
the President, Geo Scott. and the entire cab
met. were UNANIMOUS N the opinion that the
Fort should be evacuated At once. This was
coutradicied, and various reports have found
their way into the newspapers IN relation to
the matter. Same reports 90 to show that
% de. has already been issued to Maj. AsDEa-
SOY to leave the Fort. while Others say that
The Cabinet are divided 10 reI4tioa 10 The
course that should be pursued, l. - very
evident that the condition Of the Fort has
been grossly, uljsrepreseuled by the late ad-
m.nis;ration, aud that Mtjor Anderson must
be relieved Ia some way at once 70 prevent
starvation. We have confidence in the wis
dom Of thuse Who have the direction Of the
matter believing that they viii aet as pru-
,l,uce. honor AL the welfare OF the nation

The County Buildings.

In consequence Of representations made
by individuals of particular locality in
this county, that the Building in which the
county Offices are now kept is unsafe and
the Records Of the county are in danger
Of being destroyed by Fire, much inquiry
has recently been made as to the real con
dition of the building. We do not suppose
any building can be considered entirely
" fire proof in which wood is used for
roof floors, doors ana window-frames: bur
the County Building in this City is as near
so as can be made whore wood is used at
all IN the construction. Above the ceiling
overhead, and beneath the roof is filed in
with two feet Of sand so that the roof
might be entirely consumed BY fire with
ont danger to Offices below The partition
walls run to the ground, 50 that the burn
ing of the floor in the hall or either Of the
rooms would not necessarily cndanger the
other portion Of the building These are
facts in relation to the County Building.
