= The Northwestern Fair, held at La
Crosse last week, was largely attended,.
and gave good satisfaction.

The NATIONAL GArE.-Mr. 2. B.
Flint has shown us a model of the 'Na-
tional Gate" patented about year since.
We think it is by far the very best gate
we ever saw-being cheap, strong, dura-
bic, simple in construction, and worked
with the greatest ease. Mr.. Flint has
the right to sell in Pierce and st. Croix
counties, and we are confident that the
farmers generally viii adopt this gate.

The great Niger question relates
to the States lately in rebellion, but there
is small one that relates to us, which is,
shall the few negroes in this State be al.
lowed to vote like other folks Z This
ought to be a plain case. Everybody
knows that the negroes in this State arc
as intelligent, honest, industrious, and
every way good citizens as half the white
people. On their merits they have q
right to vote. Shall blind prejudice oil
race, or the remains of our former ser.
witty to the Southerners, prevent our do.
ing this act of justice 10 ourselves as well
as to these our fellow citizens, especially
as it will not do them much good, nor
