IthuneI's Spear.

The devil sat an innocent toad at the ear
of the sleeping Evo and was beguiling her
to her fall, when touch ofthe angels lance
dissolved his disguise. and revealed all his
natural and horrible dcformity. President
JonNsoN's veto has caused the Republican
party also TO be revealed TO the country In
all It's detcstable and heretofore carefully
concealed features and characteristics. Noio,
no honest man need bono thinking man
eau be. long at loss TO understand what
that party proposes TO do, should IL have
the power In the future. The honest fdndt-
ios In that party see but one thing; the le-
gal elevation Of the negro TO II level even
above that OF the white man and to reach
that, constitutions, laws, customs aud prci-
udices, are but impedinents TO be spurned
or trnmplcd under foot. The politicians OF
that party arc willing and determined, to
dcstroy everything In our institutions that
Americans have heretofore been proud of,
and involve us in another civil war, rather
than surrender the control of the Govern
ment to the opposition. ...i
No man wh1 is attached to the constitu-
tion made by our forefathers, and ex-
pounded by JEFFERsoN, MADISON, WEB-
sTER and STORY, and who desires the res
toration of the old Union, and pence and
harmony throughout all our borders. can
consistently give another vote to continue
that party In power.

Gen. Cobb on thu Soldiers Bounty
Equalization Law.

Some Of the coppcrheads who, du
ring the war opposed helping the
Government to another man or an.
other dollar, are objecting to Cobt
for Congress because he voted against
the Soldiers Bounty Equati~qhol
Lar.
Well, he did vote against the law
in the shape it passed. And why
Because, as he said and as scores OF
other members said, g it provides for
helping the soldiers but trihe and
for paying each member Of Congress
$4,000"
The original bill was favored by
Cobb it provided for equalizing the
pay of soldiers at $500 But a mi
nori.y Of the union members and
about all the copperhead members
carried an amendment reducing the
equalization to almost nothing, and
then added and carried another
amendment providing that the pay
of members of Congress shall be
$4,000 above their usual salary.
In this shape Cobb voted a thun =
doring No to the whole, and also
refuses to receive the $1,000 voted to
him in the soldiers Bounty Equaliza-
ton Law,
Cobb did right. There is not a
soldier in the wide country who, if
holding j seat in Congress, would
have voted such law, containing an
insult in 'he first part and an out
rage at the bottom
But the oopperhead mbers voted
for that Law Yes, they did that,
and every man of them p0G(lotcd his
$1,000.

divers Wooden Factory.

We met Mr. u. Oliver at the State
Fair, returning from Chicago, where
he had been to make final orders
and arrange for starting his Wooden
Factory in a week or two from this
time. He has visited several of the
Factories, at Hanover, GAINESVILLE,
and elsewhere, and thinks his will
excel any of then for improved ma
chinery. We shall soon visit Mr..
divers mills, and report thereon so
far as the public may be interested
in knowing. 1t is about eight months
since we first called attention to this
manner of manufacturing wooden
stutfs, after visit to the Hanover
Mills, our published articles leading
Mr.. Oliver to invest in the enterprise.
He entertains not Il doubt as to his
own success, though found it heavy
and expensive undertaking.
Several other men and parties in
the County are thinking of starting
such Factories, and if there were a
dozen the profits to each would be
much better than to one or two
The home trade is a small matter of
course, not requiring stuffs beyond
what one can supply. Already our
merchants are ordering their cloths
and flannels from western manufac-
tories, saying they get cheaper and
better made stuffs, and of colors and
styles superior to eastern goods

Boscobel Local Items.

THE people of Boscobel are again
agitating the question of bridge
across the Wisconsin. The bridge at
Muscoda, being considered an estab-

of one at this point, if Boscobel would
maintain her ascendancy as a COM
mercial point, and retain the trade OF
a very large extent of territory in
Crawford and other counties. | shall
have occasion to refer TO this matter
in its details soon.

about these the horses were runs
ming when Jones attention was first
called in that direction the team
passed over a. log, the off
wheels striking on the hubs, in this
way the wagon being drawn say 80
yards, and Mr. Kratzer so setting as
that his body leaned outward. His
head soon struck a tree, from the
effect of which he was instantly kill
ed. The body fell out and the team
went ahead furlously, Jones hurried
to his assistance but found Mr.. Krat-
yer liteless. The right side of face
and head were shockingly bruised,
but no other injury perceivable.-
The wagon was broken to pieces
The. team appeared quiet some dis
tanceback rs Jones passed them.
