Shareholders rights, lrisAmen' S rights, rum
sellers rights Silas Wrights, Fanny Wrights
ana other parent rights, were buried with
the. funeral rights of last November. It has
| issued an address, however, calling upon all
who are friendly to the doctrine that the
sun should rule the day and the moon give
light by night; all who accept the reduction
iii the price and quality of prime negroes as
a fact accomplished; all who believe that
, Andrew Johnson is the sole duly elected
Chief Magistrate, and that beside him there
is no other; all who believe the West
can sell more wheat at a higher price in
Liverpool than in Pennsylvania, and that
therefore special tax should be laid on
Pennsylvania manufacturers to compel them
to remove to Liverpool; all who believe that
Democrats should be taxed lightly; all who
| believe that no rebel should have been shot
during the recent rebellion, without having
titsv been tried bya jury of his peers: ali
who are opposed to paying taxes to provide
for debts Of A. Lincoln's contracting; and
all who believe that the soldiers who have
fought on either side in this war are emit
tied to their back pay, if any is due them
all these are invited to assemble in the cap
itol at Madison, at the hour for dinner, on
Wednesday, September Goth, 1865, to NOM
mate the earnest and patriotic signers for
State officers.
Such an enumeration reminds us of the
Prussian mayors address on receiving his
sovereign: Sire, there are thirty-nine
reasons why we cannot fire salute in your
honor. Firstly, we have neither cannon
nor powder, nor means to procure them"
"Never mind the others, said the sovereign
chat is quite sufficient So we think it
would have been quite sufficient for theWis-
consin Democracy to have called for a con
vention of all such as were friends to the
sun ruling by day and the moon by night.
