PROSPECTUS
OF THE
Wisconsin State Journal.

The WISCONSIN STATE JOURNAL
ia the oldest and best established paper
at the Capitol of the State. In Politics,
it is firmly and unswerverinly attached to
those principles of freedom and justice
avowcd and cherished by the trainers of
the Constitution, aud adopted as the fun
damental doctrines of the Republican
party. To these it will be true. regard
less of the changes and permutations of
parties. An examination of its files will
show the following facts:
1t publishes more matter Of special an
terest to Wisconsin readers than any
other paper.
1t has the largest and ablest corps of
army correspondents Of any paper in the
State.
1t gives more complete account ofthe
movements and experiences Of .Wiscon
sin regiments than any other paper.
1t is The only paper that prints full and
reliable lists Of the casualties By battle,
deaths by disease, and sick IN hospitals
of the Wisconsin volunteers.
1t has fuller and more reliable Legss
lative reports than any other paper.
1t publishes officially both the United
States and State laws, and all proclama-
ton and notices from the Gov. and other
State officers, including the Bank Comp
troller's monthly and semi-annnal reports.
In these respects, the STATE JOURNAL
is superior to any other Wisconsin news
paper, while it is not behind any in regard
to Geographic and general news.

ANNAPOLIS, Nd, Oct. 29.-The flag
of truce boat arrived this morning from
City Point, with 1Sl paroled men. A
number died on the boat on its way
hither. They were actually starved to
death. Never in the whole course OF
my life have l seen such scene as
these men presented. They were liv.
ing skeletons every man of them, and
had to be sent to the hospitals. In the
surgeons opinion, more than one third
of them must die, being beyond the
reach of nourishment and medical aid
l questioned several of them, and all
state that their condition has been
brought on by the treatment they have
received at the hands of the rebels.
They have been kept without food, and
exposed large portion of time without
shelter of any kind. To look at these
poor men, and hear their tales of woe
as to how they have been treated, one
would not suppose they had fallen into
the hands of Southern chivalry, but
rather into the hands of savage barbar
ians, destitute of all humanity or feel
ing.

The FALL ELECTIONS.
More Union Victories
From New York.

New YoRR, Nov. a.-Returns from
only sixteen wards in this city have
been received. They give 1907
votes for Depew, 2e.sS6 for St. John,
a copperhead majority of 1882, and
thus indicates copperhead majority
of about %, 200 in this city. There is
no doubt that the entire copperhead
county ticket, including Judge Nc
Gum, is elected. The balloting has
generally passed off without difficulty,
owing doubtless to the excellent police
arrangements.
1t is conceded that the election in
the whole State will result in A UNION
MAJORITY OF FROM $4,000 to 10000.
New York, Nov. 3.-The Erpress
SAYS that if the vote in this city be any
indication of the vote for the State, the
State has gone Republican by an en-
phatic majority. The vote here is
light, and the Democratic majority will
be reduced from 5000 to 10000.
BUFFALO, Nov. 3.-W. G. Fargo,
copperbead, is elected Mayor by about
800 majority, being Union gain Of
900.
Returns from the State so far show
a considerable Union gain.
ALBANY CRY, Nov. 3.-The Union
vote is 4,513; Copperhead, $3.50. A
Union gain of 436.

Our loss is seven wounded. This eve

mortar battery at Cummings Point up
on the northeast angle of the fort,
which seems to be the special object of
their attention. The enemy's batteries
engaged were those at Gregg and
Wagner, the centre battery and Cum

of three Monitors. The bombardment
of Fort Sumter still goes on, but the
fire is much Stacker our batteries fire

morning. The range of the guns on

than it was before the capture of Wag-

side was excellent, every shot seeming
to be effective. The enemy did not

ATrcasonable Plot Exposed.

C1ycINSATI,- Nov. IAN extraordi-
nary case of treason has recently come
to light, duplicating several persons in
this city, Columbus, Covington and
Newport, in conspiring to release rebel
prisoners at Camp Chase, and to over
throw the State Government. The
conspiracy was brought to light by
United States detectives, who were
supposed by the parties implicated to
be spies from the rebel army, and were
trusted with full confidence. The plot,
rs disclosed by the detectives, was that
an attack be made on Camp Chase, re-
lease the prisoners confined there, num-
beriug 800. sicze the arsenal at Colum-
: bus, take possession of the Penilentia-
nv. release John Morgan and other Off
GERS confined there, and then to COM
mence a rebel campaign in Ohio.
United States Marshal Sands and Pro
vost Marshal Major Reaney arrested
the following persons implicated in the
plot: Chas. w. III. Cathcart, of Column
bus, formerly School Commissioner OF
Ohio; ]. ID. Cresap, of Columbus, form
erly Sutler of the 18th Regulars, who
was to lead the attack on Camp Chase ;
Jas. d. Patton, of Covington, regular
agent of the rebel Government, who
frequently furnished Information to the
detectives, under the impression they
were spies, and, according to agree
ment, met Cathcart and others at Camp
Chase, and assisted to mature the plan
of attack Ruth Mcdonald, of Gov
ington, who acted as mail carrier thro
the rebel lines, and whose house was
the headquarters of the rebels; Sam
uel p. Thomas, merchant tailor, and
his wife and Catherine Parmanter, O

that an organization exists in Illinois
