Another Delegate Declines.

A letter from Hon. E. Fl. GALLOWAY, of
Fond du Lac, will be found on another page.
The name of that gentleman was. it seems,
most unwarraDtably used by the recent
Bread and Butter meeting. In his absence,
and without consulting him, the little squad
of B. and B. gathered here, used Mr.. GAL
LowAY's name as one of the Vice Presidents
of their meeting, and elected him delegate
to the Philadelphia Convention. 1t will be
seen that he repudiates the whole rotten
concern, He stands firmly in line with the
great party that has maintained the Union
against treason and rebellion, and to which
alone the country can look for a just, and
honorable, and permanent peace. With the
trucking politicians who now are equally
respectful and complimentary towards the
traitors that plotted against the nations life
and the heroic men who bravely defended
it, he has no sympathy. but joins with all
true patriots in their condemnation. -State
Journal.
We transfer the letter of Mr.. GALLOWAY
to our columns, as it contains fitting re-
buke to all Republicans who are ready to
sacrifice their principles and affiliate with
rebels, traitors and copperheads, for the
hope ofephemeral executive preferment.

EgThe reception and welcome of Senator
T. o. Howe and Gen. Fl. E. Paine, the able
and true Representative from this District,
in Milwaukee, on Tuesday evening last was
agrand and glorious affair. The Milwau-
kee papers say $500 persons were present,
and showed their appreciation of the servi-
ces and their approval of the course of these
Republican members in the most enthusiasts
tic manner.
An invitation has been issued to Senator
Howe from Madison signed by three or four
hundred of the leading citizens of the capt.
tai of the State, 10 visit that city and re-
ceivs an ovation and welcome from the Un-
ION loving citizens. There is a marked diff.
ference between the reception of these men
who have proved true to the people who
elected them and the principles upon which
they were. elected, and that Of one other
Wisconsin Senator who has taken different
course.

Editors State Journal:
GENTLEMEN-I was surprised to notice in the
published proceedings OF the late State Conven-
ton, that l was chosen one of the delegates to
the National Convention to assemble at Phila-
delphia on the Nth inst. Permit me to say
through the medium CT your journal, that such
use of my name was wholly without my knowl-
edge or approval, and that 1 especially decline
the honor thus sought to be conferred
| am not unmindtul of the fact that any po-
litical influence l may possess, is too limited to
make it a matter OF any consideration whether
approve or condemn the Philadelohia Conven-
ton, but having been arbitrarily thrust before
the public as approving and participating in The
same | cannot through silence, permit the iu-
ference that have lost faith in the power or the
purpose of that great political organization
which signaily defended the nations life in
its terrible struggle for existence during four
years of treason, rebellion, and war, to afford it
proper guardianship and protection now, that its
integrity has been asserted its power vindicated,
and its honor preserved.
Urgently solicitous as l am for complete re-
cancellation and harmony throughout the entire
country, and ready 10 do all that justice and
! honor may suggest TO secure blessing so de-
voutly to be desired, would still seek this hap
py result through the instrument atty of that
| party which sustained the Government at a
period that tried not only he souls of men, but
the inherent tendencies of the different political
parties of the country, that party which in>
stinctively hates oppression, and has " God
speed " for its struggling victims everywhere.
Without questioning the patriotic motive OF
| some identified with this movement, | am at the
came time convinced that the controlling ellen ents
of the convention will be such as to challenge
the most serious apprehension of those who
have the good of the country, alone, at heart
Destitute of political ambition myself and un-
alterably fixed in my determination to accept nc
political position in the future, the love | bear
our glorious Union will, nevertheless, keep me
in line with its friends, and make me shy Of
afilation with those who show equal admiration
Tor that kind of patriotism which we'd its vo.
taries to strike parricidal blow for the purpose
of rendering eternal the enslavement of a race
and that which cheerfully laid life and fortune
upon the altar of its country, animated with Q
sentiment as pure and as lofty as that which
pledged {" the lives, the fortunes, and the sacred
honor" of the founders of the Nation. O q
| Very truly yours,

IThe New York Tribune a day or two
since propounded the following pertinent
inquiries to the new Post Master General :
Does A. w. Randall, Postmaster-G General,
remember recent conversation he had
with prominent Union man of this State ?
Does he remember that he explicitly threat
ened civil war unless the Union majority
yielded to the policy of the President Does
he remember his threat that if its opposi-
ton continued, the President would recog-
nize the minority of Congress, and the
Southern claimants of seats, as the true
Congress? Does he remember that he as
serted the President would maintain the au-
monty OF this false Congress by force !?
MIR. Randall is now a member of the Cab
met one OF the Presidents advisers When
the Philadelphia Convention meets he may

threats more publicly-or to deny them. +"

CHOLERA IN CH1cAeo.-The Milwaukee

CHOLERA IN CHIcAGo.-The Milwaukee
Sentinel of Tuesday has the following
Genuine Asiatic cholera prevails in Chi
cago to considerable extent, several deaths
occurring daily. We have this from reIi-
able private source-the papers of that city,
with more devotion to the local interests
than those of New York, carefully suppress.
ing all mention of the ravages of the disease.
There were 706 deaths in Chicago during
the month of July. The 1ribnne of yester-
day, in endeavoring to account for this ex-
traordinary number, says "a word about
cholera. Ten deaths are reported from This
cause. Without wishing to dispute the
knowledge of the gentlemen who have as
signed this as the cause of death, we very
much doubt the appearance of cholera in
our midst-that is of cholera mnrbus.' If
the old idea attached to the word cholera,
(heat-infammation, be still accepted. then
we have probably had some $50 deaths from
cholera during the past month, but as the
pestilential, contagious disease of that name,
we opine it has not yet made its appearance
in this city since 1854"

Ca Mr.. johnson, who in his speech March
4, 1865, repeatedly declared himself the
mere creature of the people, has for a long
time been acting without the slightest refer
ence to the people. Upon North Carolina
he imposed constitution, which Chief-J u.s.
tice Ruffin has declared to be imperative
He says:
81 consider that this is no constitution,
because your Convention was not legiti-
mate Convention, and had no power to make
a constitution for US, or to alter that which
We had and it was called aOithout the consent
Of the people, by the President of the United
States, or under his orders-an act of clear
despotic usurpation."
How can Mr. johnson reconcile his theory
in North Carolina and his practice in Lousi-
ana We fear he thinks it unnecessary to
take the trouble to attempt it. But the
country cannot fail to see that he has de-
nounced in louisiana, as illegal and unlaw-
tul, the very principles enforced in North
Carolina The only difference is that the
louisiana Convention was elected by the on
y loyal men in the State.
