two seasons they are used. at,a.
I'd. Attei being used for number Of years,
they are free from the objection to old wooden
buckets-the impossibiity of cleansing so
thoroughly but that the pores of the wood will
contain sour, and thereby render it impossible to
make a nice article OF sugar. fal.lter

lot allow the sap to escape from the joints as
fast as it falls from the tree. .-H.

Bro WEBrsBR;--Did you ever eat oys-

are as good in the preachers home as in

suitable, the quantity temperate. And
donations are fine things-having even in

- But oyster supper donations are not
gospel institutions, am thinking. The
parish gets up a donation visit. Very
good, ".oystcrs will bring the money
and so oysters arc advertised and the
crowd crowds the tables. The dimes are
piled up. But aohat piles them up--tht
noble idea Of supporting the gospel, or the
ballroom, party going "junket' idea Of

the gospel of eternal salvation through
Jesus Christ had done going a begging

Southern Tribute to Gen Mcclellan.

the following high tribute to Gen. Mcclellan {:

TWENTY THIRD REGIMENT

Most of your readers probably know
that the Governor of this State, to faciii-
tate the raising of volunteers under the
late cali of the President fer 300 900 men,
has divided the State into five districts,
from each of which he expects regi-
ment to be raised, five regiments being our
quota OF new regiments under this call
Inc counties comprising the district from
which the 23d regiment is to be raised are
as follows, Waushara, Marquette, Sank,
Columbia, Dane, Iowa and La Fayette-
Taking into consideration the population
of these counties and tie manner In which
they have heretofore responded, it will
fall to the lot of Iowa County to raise at
least one company. Can she do it L
answer yes Old Iowa County, one of the
oldest counties in the State, is also one of
the most loyel, and stands, and, l trust,
ever will stand in the front rank in fur
nishing men and money to sustain the
Government Dnt in responding to this
call, every citizen has duty to perform,
for every man owes allegiance to the gov
eminent, owes labor and money, or their
equivalent for protection he has received
and for wealth obtained under its foster
ing care, and if he cannot 90 and labor
on the field Of bait c for his country, now
he should be willing to give his means
freely to sustain those who do go, and also
to sustain the destitute and lonely ones ct
home. What is the duty of every town
ard village in the county? What is the
duty of the city Of Mineral Point? How
many men should she send forward? It
is easily estimated The population of
the county is nearly 10000 that of the
City nearly 5000, or nearly one sixth of
the whole county, hence it will be her
duty to raise about one-sixth of the com
pany, say sixteen men. Can she do it
Will she do it2 | think so, cheerfully
and readily, could those who are will
ling to go be assured that those who de-
pend on them for support would be well
supplied with food and raiment during
their absence. Here there arises a plain
duty for those who remain at home VIII
the able-bodied and wealthy citizens at
home assist the dependent families of
those who so and fght2 If so, will our
patriotic citizens meet and devise a plan
to give our assurance to those who are
willing to go? Can subscription be
started to give an additional sum to the
bounties heretofore offered? Other cities
in many Of the States are Offering nobIy
in men and money, and trust Mineral

efforts

said to be excellent 'officer, and we have
no doubt will be acceptable to the volunteers
TO make the Regiment. But single Compa-
ny is assigned TO this County, y, bich ought to
be raised in twenty days
In many places in the east we notice meet
ings have been held by the people and funds
raised to be presented to Volunteers as boun-
ty money in addition to that to be received
from the Government. l. many instances each
volunteer gets as high s75 additional boun-
ty in this way. We think funds could easily
be raised ip-this County sufficient to pay to
each volunteer $50 additional bounty, and by
50 doing macy recruits could be raised who
would not otherwise willingly go. We think
this would be much better course than to
throw every possible obstacle in the way of
enlistments, as some are disposed to do.
