PROCLAMATION.

To tie Loyal Citizens Of Wisconsin:
For the first time in the history Of this Fed
erel Government, organized treason has mani
tested itself within several States of the Union,
armed rebels are making war against it. The
Proclamation of the President of the United
States tells of unlawful combinations too pow
erful to be suppressed in the ordinary manner,
and calls for military forces to suppress such
combinations and to sustain him in executing
the laws. The treasures OF the country must
no longer be plundered; the public property
must be protected from aggressive violence
that already seized, must be retaken, and the
laws must be executed in every State of the
Union alike.
A demand made upon Wisconsin by the Pres
ident of the United States, for aid to sustain
the Federal Arm, must meet with prompt res
ponse One Regiment Of the Militia Of this
State, will be required for immediate service,
and further service will be required as the ex-
igeney Of the Government may demand, tits
time when. against the civil and religious
liberties of the people. and against the integrity
Of the Government of the United States, par
ties and politicians and platforms must be as
dust in the balance. Al good citizens, every
where must join in making common cause
against a common enemy.
Opportunities viii De Immediately offered to
all military companies, under the direction Of
the propef authorities of the State, for enlist
ment to fill the demand of the Federal Govern
ment, aud l hereby invite the patriotic citizens
of the State TO enroll themselves into compa-
MES of seventy-eight men each, and to advise
the Executive Of their readiness to be mustered
into service Immediately. Detailed instructions
will be furnished on the acceptance Of compa-
MES, and the commissioned officers of each reg
iment will nominate their own field officers.
In times of public danger bad men grow
bold and reckless The property of the citizens
becomes unsafe, and both public and private
rights liable TO be jeopardized. I enjoin upon
ali administrative and peace officers within the
State renewed vigilance in The maintenance and
execution of the laws and in guarding against
excuses leading to disorder among the people

One Thousand a Year.
From the \. Y. Sunday Times. ]

From the n 7. Sunday Times
..Will it do to marry on $1,000 year,"
writes young lady. who adds that she is
moderate in her wishes, but desires to pre-
serve respectable and genteel appear
ance" She wants to know, also. if such
result can be best accomplished by board
ing or keeping house.
Why a young lady should apply to US
for sage advice aud wisdom of this kind is
a mystery still, if she wants free and
unbiased opinion, she is welcome to it.
Marry on thousand year by all means;
and, if properly managed, it will not only
preserve respectable appearance, but
leave something as nucleus for future
operations besides Keep house. also, if
you desire the comfort and pleasures of a
home. Never mind being cooped up or
subjected to unnecessary expenses, in or
Ger to be near friends. It's wife's duty
to make her home the centre Of attraction
to her husband, and not depend on others
to make 1t so for her Her own satisfac-
ton and reward in it viii come all in good
time.
We are almost afraid to suggest, in this
refined age. so vulgar and o'are proceed
ing; but still, if young lady has natural
good sense, courage, tact and industry, she
would facilitate her plans greatly by igno-
ring '.help" until domestic aid becomes
necessity. At least one-third of the
current expenses would be saved, and a
sufficient sum monthly to handsomely
clothe a woman of taste and moderate
wishes. To live well, and especially to
save, on small means, requires simply
method in expenditure, and knowing how
and where to economize. Some people
live in wretched tenement houses, and
think they cannot afford nice article of
furniture or decent garment. who waste
as much as these would cost in hiring
lazy help. in drinking '7f-l living
