Bo.,obel Newspapers and parties.

Mr. L. r. TRAIN, who first started the
Broad Are, finding SO near all his time
taken up with the types that be could de-
vote but littleattention to editorial writing,
has taken Mr.. L. NJ. ANDREWS for part
ner and marked difference is made in
their paper-favorable in all respects. The
new editor writes and thinks well upon the
several subjects selected for editofializing.
His articIs under the head "Educatson as.
Treason" shows that he recognizes right
beginning as the only foundation for the
political as well as the moral building.
His discussions under the respective heads,
"Peace IN time Of WcF," What is Uacon-
stitutionol," &C., exhibit a good legal IN
Outstanding and logical ability.
Mr.. LoHMAN Of the -Arsus ms had a
good experience in the newspaper business
AID writes well. Were be to advocate the
sentiments of his better nature and light
his wear Is an editor might last good
while. But when editors get yoked in
with a party they have to blow and strike
! for that party; and it takes an amazing
deal Of mulish stubbornness and human in
dependence for an editor to resist hurrah-
ing for the msggats that crawl in the car
cass Of his party in its descent to the pit.
The party we stand by in this State has
made several attempts at putting out its
TIGHTS and steering in the dark for the ben
eft Of the maggots, but the lights blazed
up all the brighter We know al about
/ trimming the lights--sometme have to
pile on the hydrogen and kick like mule
against the party stars. Had friend Lott
NAN followed our example and deal mule
kicks and damnation upon the Copper
heads he wouldn't now be called on to back
water in the red sea. But he hadn't the
courage, and therefore found himself at the
late election in tie arms of sci of Cop
perhead party leaders, whose party mass
es had deserted. So We are not surprised
to see his paper, day after election, galvan-
ling. in this manner, leading Copper
head bankrupt who never paid bill ia his
HE nor did a commendable thing, and
whose promises wouldn't sell by the acre
for as much as a pig: Says the 1rgus,
speaking Of his lord, "he has established
an eaviaJ{e reputation as toiategrity and
promptaeSS 5a the e1ecUtion Of all Iltsi-
ness satlwsted to hts core" Some things
are impossible with the Almighty, and the
matter of galganzing said Boscobe Cop
perhead leaders into decent shape, color or
magnitude is one Of them. Their political
end has come, and the sooner the 1fgus
sets to weaving their official winding sheets
the better for him. 1t will cost tie Town
Board another pair Of spectaeles to Be able
to see the virtues Of another one Of them
this side of eternity.
The danger is 10 the resurrection Of the
Boscobel Copperheads on the other side Of
Gordon, for their political carrion Is moth
ing but the small offices. Let them be
confined to The Mnscoda Rodolf resolu
lions, as follows:
] Resolred, hat we are III favor OF immediate
cessation Of hostlities between the North aud
| South.
Resolred. That we are neither constitution
ally, legally nor morally under any obligations
whatsoever, to furnish more men or money TO
carry on this war.
R6solUed, That we cordially endorse Vaan-
digham's speeches and Seymour's message.
Let them be held here Li-ten net to
their back-down resolutions or death-bed
repenting professions, for there Is not in
them a tear to she'd, only for the loss Of the
picayune Tcwn Offices.
Boscobel IS the commercial metropolis
for this part Of the state, and must not be
copperhead sodom or rebel hole in the
wall, an asylum for the political sediments
of a party now alien to constitution and
country.
