The Chicken Season.

frIv
That rigorous law, whose chief virtue
consists in provoking peaceful and loyal
SUBJECTS to destroy its prohibitions, is
last approaching the period of its an.
nual decease. The twelfth of August
will relieve the prairie chicken from the
guardianship of state. It's minority
will be passed. Left to the resources
OF its full-grown wings and latent an
st'nct-(we mean the latentcy of the
bird, not of the instinct) the sportsman
will not be tempted to violate the chiy-
alrous laws of the game-(the chaser
But the lassitude and ennui of town
has been rendered quite insupportable
by the thought that the prairie chicken
is roaming during these fine days over
the prairies, through the wheat fields
and brush-covered ridges, in the pride
and strength of his youth, and in the
full confidence of living a long and
peaceful life. The law, however, frowns
its unchanging interdict, and yigilant
justice excites fear in many breast
heretofore alien to that painful emotion
Wonder not then that the temptation
to disobey our state decree is strong
almost overwhelming, but it is tempta-
ton that tests the stability of principle,
and in her inviolability proves the
strength Of virtue. This quality Of
obedience to law is relieved in the con,
duct Of those Of our townsmen who are
addicted to the chase, for while unable
to await patiently the legitimate expi-
ration of the chicken law, they very
laudably expend their hunting turor on
the eoild pigeon. This accounts for the
occasional absence Of many from town.
They are garnering harvest of death
for the chicken, correcting the erring
aim, and acquiring GOODNESS in the mo-
ment Of action. Let vengeance fall on
the pigeon but one short week longer,
by which time the chicken shall have
passed beyond the protecting egis Of
the state, and then 'to the prairies let
us 60"

SA- The american Phrenozoqicoi
journal for August is on our table
The present number is an excellent one
one OF the best we think we have eve,
seen. we enumerate few of the lead
ing articles
George Gordon Meade, his phrenolo-
glcal character and biography; Est
mates OF character; The law of devel-
opment The unity of man, as indicated
by the unity Of language The Ameri-
can man; Physiognomy, or Noseolegy
Entomology and the..Poets; Something
about lions; Republican manners The
secret OF longevity Admiral Andrew
Il. Foote, chronological character and
biography; The circulation of the blood
ohall we fog our children. Besides
the different editorial departments, all
OF which are good. We certainly con-
slider this publication the best of the
Kind, and if the subjects of which il
treats were better studied and under
stood by mankind, they would sooner
realize the meaning and import of the
great truth,-"M know myself" anc
the greatest study Of mankind is man.

READ Your PAPER. - Singular as the
statement may appear, il is not more strange
than true, that many persons subscribe fol
b paper and hastily glance over it or else
lay it aside unread, where it soon falls a
prey to the builder offres or the snapper
upOfunconsidcred trifes." We doubt very
much the wisdom Of such course; a news
paper is printed and sold to be read, and it
must be poor sheet indeed which does
not contain some object of interest or of
Information to the subscribers. The indi-
Tidual who should bring provisions to his
house and allow them to spoil for want OF
use, would seem lacking in common sense.
What, then, shall we think of those who,
while they feed the body, suffer the mind
% perish and permit the whole intellectual
machinery to get rusty for want of use.

93y% The Watertown Democrat says tru-
ly: The laws must be executed, even at the
point Of the bayonet. The right way to deal
with these frantic mobs is to rain in their
midst storm Of well aimed bullets, and
riddle their ranks with rounds of grape and
canister, Rioters seeking by violence to
overthrow the reign of law, and involve the
whole community in anarchy and ruin,
have no claim to forbearance, and if they
will not desist from their wicked efforts,
shoot them DOZEN. Cold steel and lead will
bring a crowd Of law-breakers to their
senses and heels when reason is powerless
they soon comprehend the irresistible
logic of the charge and volley, and give
their quick assent to its conclusions"

Terrible Hail Storm.


FROM the Lancaster Herald we learn
mat about 5 O'Clock p. M, last Tuesday,
me dlsasreeable, rainy weather which
laa been prevailing for several days,
illuminated in one of the severest hail

BG~ Improvements are still going on.
We notice that the NJ. Z. church society
are finishing their large basement room
for sunday schools and other purposes.
This to them was a much needed i'm
provement Mr. Thayer, the builder
Of the new ?. M. church, has the build
ing inclosed, and good portion of the
roof on. This building, with its STEEP
roof and unique spire, will make great
Improvement to the village when fin
ished.
We also notice that two or three new
buildings are in course Of erection
among us. If there was a dozen new
dwelling houses built we believe they
could all be rented at good prices before
winter.
The leyeling of the Court House
square is also progressing favorably, and
when finished and fence erected around
it, will make spot that the people oil
Dodgeville and, Iowa county, can feel
proud to look at.
