A Fraud uron lie State.

The Madison Journal gives q statement
in relation to fraud of the most astound-
ing character which has heen perpetratei
upon this State. Our readers will relnem-
Der that Wisconsin has claimed FIVE per
cent of the proceeds Of the public lands
sold in this State, ana that the L. 5 Gov
ernment has refused to pay it, ON the
ground that the State of Wisconsin IS la
bic for the grant to the Rock River canal
company, made by the general govern.
ment when Wisconsin was a territory.
1t appears through investigations made
by Senator Howe, that the proyiso in the
organic act admitting this State into the
Union, which provides that our state shall
he liable for the grant to tho Rock Riy. r
canal company, was in the original bill,
BAT acas stricken out, on motion Of Mr.
Tweedy, the delegate frcm Wisconsin,
that il passed the house thus amended
went TO the senate, passed that body
without amendment, and v s correctly
printed III newspaper at Washington, al
the time That portion which was stricken
out on motion of Mr. Twee " was. how
ever, retained By the fraud Of the engross-
ing clerk, and the law rs printed was
different from that in the archives of the
government Hence tn mis- Understand
ing-the United States insisting that
Wisconsin was bound to assume the grant
or the Rock River canal company, while
the state, following the printed law, con
tended that she was under no response
biiity ON account Of them
The evidences Of the fraud are said to
10 conclusive, and bill has been intro
duced III Congress 10 remit to Wisconsin
the amount due, to me applied on the war
tax. The finance committee of the senate
unanimously sustain the bill The amount
j. large, and viii materially Tighten the
burden OF taxation, instead Of going into
the pockets Of the Rock River canal com
pany, who got the land, but never built
the canal Much credit is due to Senator
Howe for discovering this fraud upon our
State

Bsy- The New Orleans DeIta says =
Since the arrival of the Federal forces in
this city, there has probably been no sim
liar body Of men, in any locality, so free
from disease. The statistical records kept
by the surgeons eXhibitan amount of sick
ness of less than ten per cent And when
It II IS well known that IN all hospitals,
North East and West, the calculation Of
a sick percentage Is fully up to that fig
ure- and that provision is always made in
thar proportion, 1t must be gratifying to
he citizens Of New Orleans to know that
there IS sueh an immunity from disease.
