"The men who put down the re-
bellion do not join in the demand for
future punishment of the rebels; but
if there was a General who never
won battle, soldier who invaria-
bly, skulked when fighting was to be
done, a camp follower who was ever
on hand to plunder towns, some
treasury agent or his pimp, who has
enriched himself by levying black
mail on traders or the inhabitants
of the South, a civilian who was
ready to pour out the blood Of every
body else to save the nation-these
are the men who are now so eager
to kick the PROSTATE foe and confis-
cate his valuables; these are the
men who are continually making
abortive attempts to arouse old

"A "Disagreeable Truth"

The Chicago Tribune of a late
date, referring to the decisions of
the Supreme Court on the test oath
question has the following:
Enough has reached us, to show
that the predic tions Of the copper
heads and rebels in regard to this
decision, have been amply fulfilled,
and that the loyal men of the nation
must prepare themselves to face the
disagrecablc truth, that they CAV
NOT RELY iron THE JUDICIAL DE-
pARrMENr OF THE GovERNMp'NT, rs
at present constituted, to co-opcr,
ate with them in secnrins tho fruit
of their hard-earned victory over
rebellion"

rely upon either the president, tat

Radical Fraud.

Last fall Gov. Fletcher of Mis-
souri, made a swindling transfer Of
the Iron Mountain railroad to Nc
Kay Il Reid, the amount paid for it
being only $3.50, 600, notwithstand-
ing a number of bids were made of
larger amounts for it. One of
these was by Thos Allen Of $500,
600. The sale to Mckay & Reid
was clearly a. fraud upon the State.
On the 5th inst. the deed of sale was
made out to Mckay & Reid,
On the 18th inst. they tranfcrred
the road to Thos. Allen for $3.50,
600. As he was willing to give the
State $500, 600 for the road, he is
undoubtedly satisfied to obtain it of
Reid & Mckay at the reduced sum.
They are Of course we'll pleased to
pocket $500, 900 as the profits of
the several days of their ownership,
and Fletcher will not refuse to share
with them: These men belong to

ANDREW SCOGGIN,
Equal Justice to All,

Our Legislature has voted that
Wisconsin wool-growers ought to be
protected by tariff on wool. We
hope that learned body will not stop
here. If the people of the nation
ought to be taxed to help the wool
growers and the manufacturers, of
course the people of the nation ought
to be taxed to help the wheat-grow
ers, the -four dealers, the grocery
and dry goods merchants, the ship
owners, together with all the me-
chanics and day laborers. No rca-
son for discrimination in faver of
one class and against another is yet
made to appear. One sort of indus
try is as much entitled to protec-
ton as another. The higher the
prices obtained by each, of course
the greater the prosperity of the
state. Ifthe 'protcctive" princi-
pal is a good one let it be extended
to all, SO all may become rich alike.
In the end everybody will be a nabob
and the proposition will be finally
demonstrated that every man can
lift himself by pulling on his boot
congress helps him.

the same identical article, word for
word and line for line.
Is not this putting the thing rath-
er fine when two of the great radical
dailies of Iowa publish the same ed
itorial the same morning? What
has Linkensalc, the Boswell of Iowa

"MY DEAR GOVERNOR II can
not too heartily thank you for your

evening. There is not a word or
sentence in the article from the

in my two newspapers-thc Chroni-

ators and representatives from Lou

is so, it is easy to anticipate that
those of Tennessee will also be re-
ceived. s.r ....... -. ..
~ 1.-The only person that I find op-
posed to your theory, and who is
now hesitating as to the true course
to be pursued in reference to the ad-
of Louisiana, is Mr.. Sumner,
of Massachusetts. He may probab-
ly be followed by Wade, Wilkinson,
Chandler, and a few more, but Sem
ator Wilson, Of Massachusetts,, is
open and determined in his course,
and, | think, will carry with him
The attempt to embarrass
the admission Of such states as Ten
nessee, after having gone through
such suffering as yours, sand after
having reorganized their states from
the very foundation of principle and
law, would be a sad proceeding.
"The fact is, my dear Governor
We can not resist peace should the
southern people lay down their arms
and demand to come back into the
Union under the terms ofthe amnesty
oclamation-agreeing to the aboli-
ion of.slavcry by the amendment of
,hc constitution, and conscnting to
he restoration of the old union
Any party that opposes such an ap-
zeal would come to confusion: nor
an we attempt to embarrass such |
questions as those presented in the
:ascs Of Louisiana and Tennessee,
