The legislature convened Yesterday.
Gov. Haryey's message first alludes to local
matters and the healthy financial condition
of the State. In reference 10 the war tax
to be levied he says, the loyal people Of
Wisconsin do not value property or life it.
self weighed against the existence Of the
government, which has long blessed and
protected them in both. He recommends
economy and wise administration to meet
this tax. He recommends military tactics
and drill in public schools lie strongly
urges memorials to Congress for armory,
naval and arsenal departments at Milwau-
kee, its capacious harbor, water power,
cheapness of ship material and accessible
position rendering it the best point on t e
lakes. Abiding to the rebellion and the
rebels, he says: Surely a few lessons
more will teach us if indeed we be not al
ready taught, to understand what treason
means. To regard these rebels with that
horrid aversion, the royalists hold the reg
icide. They are the attempted regicides Of
the best government under heaven. The
contest must come to be fought on the
principle that the protection Of the Union
alore gives sacredness to soil or our institu-
tons. No soil, person, or any species Of
property, have any sacredness or claim to
regard outside the constitution and in re-
bellion against the laws.
Slavery is moreover the interest which
the batteries for Southern monarchy have
placed upon to storm and unite their sec
ton until the whole people have gone mad
upon it. Conservatism or politics cannot
save it now from the doom which awaits
it, whether it finds its fate in the struggle
or dies lingering Of its wounds, is yet on
the order Of Providence and not to be di-
reeted by our impotence.

The Gazette learns from the editor of
tie late Sandy Valley Ad0ocate. now one
OF the proprietors Of the Louisville Demo
crat, who arrived here from Sandy Valley
Yesterday, that the second rebel invasion
OF Eastern Kentucky has ended in dis
graceful row. On Monday last, Col. Gar
fields forces, including The Forty-second
Ohio, Tenth Kentucky, and 800 Cavalry,
had proceeded up the Big Sandy to Paint
vile, within seven miles Of the rebel camp,
when they were met by flag Of truce,
bearing a message from Humphrey Mar
shall, asking if matters could not be settled
without fight.
Col. Garfield Immediately replied he
could offer no arrangement, except either
to fight or surrender Internationally.
Marshall then addressed his men, inform
ING them they had no alternative excepting
surrender or to disband, and giving them
their choice. They decided to disband.
They immediately collected and set fire to
all their camp equippage, wagons, tents,
supplies, DC; then each man was permit
ted to take care of himself, and the whole
force scattered in confusion. No attempt
was made to save anything excepting their
cannon, which were hauled off,
Col. Garfield dispatched his cavalry in
pursuit They expect to capture the guns,
and, perhaps, pick up some Of the flying
rebels.
The rebels in Northeastern Kentucky,
from the high estimate in which Hum
phrey MarshalPs military abilities were
held, had strong hopes ofsuccess under his
leadership.
A sufficient Federal force will be left ii
this region TO secure its future peace and
safety.

sorts Of atrocities on the quiet and peaceful

Row in the Assembly,.

The rebel sympathisng, mischisfous,
disaIion faction, composed Of odd ends Of
all parties confined in general way to
derange and frustrate the organization Of
the Assembly on the first day Of meeting.
Buchanan democrats took the lead in The
disgracefpl attempt to force q secession
Speaker into the chair They met secretly
the previous evening and organised for dis
organising purposes. That some Of The
old Wisconsin rebels should be foremost in
this work is not surprising, but that II. L.
Palmer should assume the lead we could
not have believed We thought Palmer
considerable Of man, but it seems he is a
sly deceiyer, pretending fairness but filled
with frauds and disease.
Tn The late elections, a slice of the dem
ocratic party fell off and afflicted with the
republicans, and by the help Of republican
votes quite number OF such were elected
to the Assembly. These have been classed
since election as democrats by the Madison
Patriot. to be used in clogging the wheels
of legislation. Bnt these independent or
union democrats had already made up their
minds to cut loose from the old ship and
act with the republicans in saving the
country from ruin. This so offended the
rebel sympathisers that they at once re-
solved to disorganise the legislature by the
usual party means. Such conduct brought
the union democrats and republicans to-
gether in action, as we'll as sympathy, and
they at once agreed on whom they would
have for Speaker. The chief clerk Of the
old legislature being absent, it became the
assistant clerks duty to call the members
to order and assist at the organization.
The rebels refused to submit to the cal. Of
the assistant clerk, but called one Of their
own number to the chair for temporary
Speaker. The majority refused to submit
to the bogus Speaker, when a violent solu-
ton seemed inevitable for a while. J. T..
Mills also took the chair, saying he had
Just as much right to preside as the other
Mills demanded that the clerk call the roll
and that the members so called be sworn
into office, which was eventually done and
the oath administered BY Judge Cole; af-
ter which, Mr. @, II. Barron was elected
temporary Speaker, when q permanent or
ganization was affected at once by eIecting
S, eaker and other officers. The Madi-
son Journal says:
The contest was admirably managed on
the side Of the Republicans and Union men
and their opponents did not make point.
In addition TO Messrs. Mills and Starks,
Messrs. Vivian, of Iowa, and Jussen, Of
Dane, ably seconded their efforts, and ex-
posed the pettifoging and sophistry by
which the opposition sought to confuse and
mislead such members as were inexperieuc-
ed in parliamentary usages. These turbu-
lent proceedings are not likely to promote
the plans and purposes Of those who are
responsible for them,

HN@T The grand forward march of troops
from all quarters, which announced two
weeks ago in the Herald would take place
about the middle of January, has com
menced moving to time and announcement.
$4,000 men are to march simultaneously
from the Potomac. from Western Virginia.
and Kentucky, from Missouri, down the
Mississippi and towards the centre Of rebel
dom from the Southern coast. We look
for the grandest battles ever heraldcd or
read upon the pages Of history, to trans
pire within a brief period, say fortnight
or less time. The expeditions may be de-
layed IA part to the goth or even a day
or SO later, by unavoidabities, but stat
they will, according to plans long matured
but mol made public. A heavy fleet is to
sail up the Potomac and Mcclellan will
flank tout Manassas: Banks will march
on The rear of the enemy and Cox will
strike round back of Le'yisburgh; Cum
berand Gap is to be opened; four battal-
lions will start for Men phis; several small
bodies will hurry into Tennessee. Such in
telligent facts are announced very late,
with positive movements Of troops to Prove
