The President issues a call for 1900, 900
more" to act as contingent force, and gil
up the regiments. 1t is not necessary to
write lengthlly about it. To April LIST is
given US to avail ourselves of the Govern
eminent bounty, to April 10Th to furnish
the men! What shall we do? Make one
more effort, or await the DRAFT. Let US
try again. The men are here and are will
ling to 60 if paid for it as their prsdeces-
sors in enlisting have been paid. Capt.
Benton has a letter from Provost Adams
giving our status up to Jan. 3lst, but that
gives no information to the point. 1t is
guessed that our (Mendon) quota will be
40-the extension Of the 800 bounty by
the City Council is not probable-there are
400 liable men in this township-if each
ooe will come forward at once and pay $40
tho men can be raised by the 10Th. Ser
geant Wymau Of the 9th has number of
men ready to enlist il they are fairly paid.
Let every liable man look to this There
arc many other men who are not liable who
will assist out of their private means those
whose situation forbids the raising Of even
the Ten Dollars.
There will be public meeting called
ssnc night this week to consider these
shings. 1t is the duty Of all to take an &C
tive interest. Send committees to see the
Liable ones and the liberal exempts, and let
AS say here, BE almighty quick about it,

RubIe's Improved One Wheeled Reaper, and
Two-W Wheeled Mower Combined,

MANUFACTURED by Russell q Co.
We would call the Farmers especial attention to
this new combination, some Of which were introduced
throughout the northwest last season. nd wherever
used gave universal satisfaction both Reaper and
MoWe', and proved to be just what has always been
wanted by the farmer. In the manufacture OF this
combined machine We have overcome a difficulty that
has heretofore existed with all combinations. 1t Is
so constructed that while reaping all the moving ap-
aratus is laid asideuse but of the large driving
wheels, which makes the reaper very desirable for
farmers who have light teams; has side draft is
well balanced. IL is light and durable one-wheeled
reaper, designed for nothing else but for cutting
grain.

committee was appointed to investigate the
affair, and Mr.. Burrhus was acquitted OF
any Intention to vote illegally, for some Of
the faithful were in the same boat, but a
resolution passed both Houses, after de.
bate Of half day, cxpelling Mr. Burrhus
for casting half copperhead vote. One
vote more in the Senate would have saved
Mr.. Burrhus, as the majority of our north
ern members were too sharp to make for
themselves such an Infamous record. In
the discussion on the resolution Mr.. Hunt
said that "the same evidence produced
against Mr.. Burrhus would not convict
man Of stealing Shanghai chicken worth
two bits and if it would, he was not for
expelling Mr.. Burrhus on the ground Of
scratching Leas' name. He had as loyal
German constituency as any man on this
floor and he believed if they had been cleo
ting Mayor and the question was lager
beer and democrat, or no lager and re
publican, they would go lager beer every
| time and the republican would be defeated.
Therefore he would not vote to expel a
man until he was proved dsloyal." The
majority believed it was sufficient evidence
that he was disloyal, from the fact that he
erased "loyal'' name from his ticket.
Mr.. Bardick of DEBORAH was not to be
caught mapping. lie said lit it was well
known that the beer clause Of the liquor
law was allowed to remain there wholly
ard for no other cause than to secure the
German vote and he would never vote to
expel man from office who was merely
voting for his beer" Of course the Dem
ocrats in both houses opposed the resola,
ton, and % members of the House had
the good sense to vote against it. Mr.. Hale
thought there were mitigating crcumstan.
. ces in Mr.. Burrhus case. Burhus had a
man i'm his employ as mail carrier who was
q conpictsd Thief. Mr.. Hldreth said he
could not face his constituents if he had
, voted to continue in office man who had
: voted for disloyal candidate. Poor Hill
dre,h! Here is where the laugh comes in
in his case: Mr.. Helms, Member from Ia
) ma, and several others, heard Mr.. llildrett
adrisng Mr.. Burrhus to 60 and cote! o
. shame upon you, Mr.. Hildre,h, for desert
6 ing friend, merely for a pencil scratch
, He was less to blame for casting an illega
vote than you! You will excuse the space
devoted to this matter on the ground tina
it was deemed Of sufficient importance t
engage the attention of the whole Of tn
D General Assembly for the period Of half
day. More anon. ID. N.
